Chapter 164: Desert Journey 4
Without waiting for Xu Jiangcuo to answer, Song Lehan pointed ahead again and said, "Let's go out and take a look."
She lifted her foot and walked forward.
Xu Jiangcuo stood there, looking at her back, thinking about the information Zhang Te sent him.
After searching for many days, I finally found the real information about Song Lehan's parents.
Her mother works for the Jiang family, and her father has been in the hospital.
Zhang Te found out that Jiang Yue paid all the medical bills while Song Lehan's father was in the hospital.
It can be traced back to my sophomore year.
In other words, Jiang Yue had had contact with Song Lehan long before him.
If you think about it more carefully...
Xu Jiangcuo didn't dare to think further, nor did he want to think about it anymore.
The past is past, and all he needs to do is look at the present.
Xu Jiangcuo sighed and followed with big strides.
Outside, it was already getting dark. However, there were chandeliers hanging around the building, not very bright, but enough to see the way back.
Song Lehan followed the instructions of the street lights and walked forward step by step until he came to a good place to watch the stars.
There were already people sitting around, in groups of two or three, waiting for night to fall.
Song Lehan also found a place and sat down. Then, he looked at Xu Jiangcuo who was still standing and patted the seat beside him. "Sit down, it's all desert here anyway."
It's dirty, so it is.
Xu Jiangcuo was not worried because it was dirty, but he felt that there were too many people around him. If he wanted to have a private conversation with Song Lehan, it would be a bit inconvenient.
"Let's go over there." He pointed to a place with few people.
Song Lehan looked in the direction he pointed and asked in confusion, "Is there any difference?"
“There are fewer people over there.”
Xu Jiangcuo said this a little embarrassedly.
"Okay."
Song Lehan stood up, brushed the sand off his body, and followed Xu Jiangcuo to the side where there were fewer people.
"You came to me, is there something you want to tell me?"
Since Xu Jiangcuo came to see her, he must have something to say.
Song Lehan couldn't guess, so he could only ask.
Xu Jiangcuo originally wanted to tell her what he had found out, but now he felt that asking these questions would undoubtedly expose himself.
If he asked, Song Lehan would definitely ask him how he knew.
How will he answer then?
Even if Song Lehan didn't ask, she could guess that Xu Jiangcuo had checked her privately.
What is going on here?
"Nothing, I just want to spend some time with you."
Xu Jiangcuo supported his hands behind his back, leaned back, and looked up at the night sky.
The moon gradually appeared. The sky was not completely dark yet, but a few bright stars could already be seen.
Seeing Xu Jiangcuo say this, Song Lehan could only nod and lower his head to play with the sand.
"After the show is over, are you going to join the crew?" Xu Jiangcuo changed the topic.
Song Lehan said "hmm", "Of course, life has to go on, I have to make money."
"Do you really need money?" Xu Jiangcuo asked again, somewhat tentatively.
Song Lehan paused, poured out all the sand in his hands, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "Who doesn't want more money?"
Tilting her head, she asked Xu Jiangcuo, "Don't you want a lot of money?"
Xu Jiangcuo looked at her with evasive eyes, wanting to ask but not daring to.
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Song Lehan slumped his shoulders and said, "Just tell me what you want to say. I can't understand you keep beating around the bush."
As she spoke later, her voice became much softer, more like a mutter to herself.
Xu Jiangcuo turned his eyes away, still looking up at the dark night sky.
After a long silence, he suddenly spoke.
"Have you known Jiang Yue for a long time?" After a pause, Xu Jiangcuo added, "Did you know him before me?"
Song Lehan looked up at him, then quickly looked away.
"Well, I've known him for a long time."
"So..." Xu Jiangcuo dragged out the words, shook his head, and finally looked at Song Lehan, "What is your relationship with him?"
"Besides the fact that he's your boss, what's your relationship?"
Song Lehan's eyes paused, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
I thought Xu Jiangcuo would ask her if they could meet again in the future, but I didn't expect him to ask this.
So strange.
Why did he suddenly think of this?
Xu Jiangcuo's eyes were always on Song Lehan, observing the emotions on her face, but her expression was calm and there was no ripple.
"I'm just curious, curious about your relationship."
Song Lehan turned to look at him, "What do you mean?"
"Literally."
Xu Jiangcuo looked at her for two seconds, then couldn't help but look away.
The two people turned around.
Now it was Song Lehan who kept staring at Xu Jiangcuo.
"Xu Jiangcuo, I said, we are over."
She emphasized again.
Every word he said was harsher than the last.
"What relationship do I have with others? None of this has anything to do with you anymore."
"Do you understand?"
"Even if, even if I really end up with Jiang Yue in the future, no matter how bad he is, you don't have to tell me this."
Every word and sentence was meant to completely sever all ties with Xu Jiangcuo.
After Song Lehan finished speaking, his heart ached slightly.
She lowered her head and closed her eyes. After a moment of calming down, she heard Xu Jiangcuo say, "That's not what I meant."
What does that mean?
Song Lehan remained silent, waiting for Xu Jiangcuo's next words.
But he couldn't speak for a long time.
Things have come to this point, and Song Lehan doesn't know what to say.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood."
She stood up, patted the sand behind her, and said coldly: "I'm a little hungry, I'll go back first."
"Does it have to be like this?" Xu Jiangcuo stood up and stopped Song Lehan who was about to leave.
The two men faced each other and the atmosphere became tense.
"What's wrong with me?" Song Lehan lowered his voice and tried to calm himself down.
Xu Jiangcuo also suppressed his emotions and said, "Can you please finish what you are saying? Let's make it clear and not leave halfway through, okay?"
"Then go ahead and talk. I'm listening." Song Lehan really wanted to hear what he had to say.
Xu Jiangcuo turned his head, took a deep breath, and when he turned back again, his expression had softened a lot.
"I just want to ask why you know Jiang Yue."
"I...I don't mean to control you. I know we are just ordinary friends now, not even friends, but..."
Xu Jiangcuo looked at Song Lehan with some grievance in his eyes, "I just don't want to see you get hurt."
"Jiang Yue is different from all of us. The place where he was born determined what kind of person he is. I'm really afraid that he will use you and hurt you."
Song Lehan is soft-hearted and doesn't like to be tough. The person opposite her has already softened, so she can't get tough either.
She slowly lowered her eyes and sighed, "I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself and my words were a bit harsh."
