Chapter 48: I don’t want to see you suffer
"Xu Jiangcuo!!!"
Song Lehan ran out of the house, shouted at Xu Jiangcuo's back, and then ran towards him.
At this moment, she had so many things to ask him.
Ask him if he is still paying attention to himself after the breakup.
Ask him if he has been looking at this photo all the time.
Ask him why he was holding the photo when he was being pinned down.
Ask him if he has never disliked himself.
But she couldn't ask.
I couldn't ask a single question.
Xu Jiangcuo in front of her had clear eyes, and the look he gave her was just pure confusion.
No likes.
No hate.
No doubt.
There is no forced indifference.
There aren't so many complicated emotions.
There is nothing left.
Song Lehan stared at Xu Jiangcuo, the words she wanted to say stuck in her throat, making her feel so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Xu Jiangcuo was a little panicked, "What happened..."
Seeing Song Lehan's eyes red, he stopped talking and looked at Uncle Zhou beside him in confusion.
"You made yourself cry, you have to comfort her yourself, I can't do anything." Uncle Zhou said in Tibetan, turned around, led the horse and followed the filming crew.
After the main force left, Xu Jiangcuo felt helpless when faced with the tearful Song Lehan.
"You...why are you...who bullied you?"
Song Lehan shook his head stubbornly, thinking of what Aunt Zhou had just said, and quietly hid the photo in his hand behind his back.
She lowered her head, wiped away her tears, and after calming down, she raised her eyes again, "No, I just heard Aunt Zhou talk about your experience and thought you were amazing."
"Ah? What did I experience?" Xu Jiangcuo pulled up the corner of his mouth, "Even if you tell me now, I won't remember it."
Yeah, he doesn't remember anything.
Even if I asked those questions, he wouldn't be able to answer them.
"It's okay, you'll remember it eventually." Song Lehan comforted with a smile, "One day, you'll remember all the memories."
Even though, you hate me.
I want you to remember me too.
We spent the whole morning shooting the promotional video, but we still couldn't achieve the effect that Uncle Zhou wanted.
So the filming team had to make a new plan.
At noon, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou asked Song Lehan to stay for lunch. She didn't want to, but Xiao Sangzhu dragged her along, so she had no choice but to sit down.
The meal was very rich.
Uncle Zhou specially asked Aunt Zhou to prepare a roasted whole lamb and a table full of local specialties. Before eating, he asked the camera crew to shoot a video. Only after they were satisfied with the video did they start eating.
Song Lehan sat next to Xu Jiangcuo. She had no appetite to begin with, and even with the roasted whole lamb, she couldn't eat it.
Noticing that she hadn't touched her chopsticks much, Xu Jiangcuo lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Is it not to your liking? I see you haven't picked up much food."
"No, I'm not very hungry yet." Song Lehan held the chopsticks in his hand, looking around but not knowing what to pick up.
Seeing this, Xu Jiangcuo picked up a bun and put it in Song Lehan's bowl.
"Try this."
In anticipation, Song Lehan put the bun in his mouth and took a bite before he could tell: "This is a bun with milk residue!"
"How do you know?!" Xu Jiangcuo's eyes lit up, "Have you eaten it before?"
Song Lehan shook his head and grinned, "You told me before that your description made me so hungry that I tasted it right away!"
Xu Jiangcuo raised his eyes slightly, a look of surprise flashing across his face.
We were classmates who had only met a few times, but we could still talk about food?
He noticed something was wrong, but he didn't say anything. He glanced at the other people at the table, then leaned over to Song Lehan and lowered his voice: "That braised beef is delicious too, do you want to try it?"
Song Lehan took a look and asked, "Is it spicy?"
Xu Jiangcuo: "Hmm... slightly spicy."
Song Lehan: "Then give me a small piece."
"Okay!" After the words fell, Xu Jiangcuo picked up a small piece and placed it in Song Lehan's bowl, then asked softly, "Is there anything else you want to eat?"
“Hmm…I want to eat…”
The softly whispered conversation contrasted sharply with the loud chatter nearby.
Invisibly, it was as if there was a glass cover covering the two of them together, completely isolating them from others.
"Is there anything else you want to eat?" Xu Jiangcuo tilted his ear, waiting for Song Lehan's order.
Before the order came, Song Lehan burped first.
Hearing her burp, Xu Jiangcuo covered his nose and chuckled, then turned his head to look at her: "Are you full?"
"Yeah." Song Lehan nodded embarrassedly. He looked over and realized that Xu Jiangcuo seemed to have been picking food for him, but he didn't eat much.
Too.
The one being fed by Xu Jiangcuo didn't want to eat much originally, but now she eats more than anyone else.
"Just eat it. You kept serving me food just now, but you didn't eat much." Song Lehan persuaded him, imitating his behavior and asking, "What do you want to eat? I'll serve you some too."
Xu Jiangcuo's face flashed with fondness, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "I can get it myself. If you don't want to sit here, you can go outside to bask in the sun."
Song Lehan shook his head hesitantly.
"It's okay, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou won't tell." He comforted her.
Song Lehan put down his chopsticks silently but did not leave.
Xu Jiangcuo did not persuade her anymore, but just quickened his eating pace.
He knew that Song Lehan was bored at the dinner table, and he also knew that she didn't leave out of politeness.
So, he wanted to finish eating quickly and then take Song Lehan away.
Unexpectedly, before they finished eating, the people who were discussing the filming took the initiative to talk to Song Lehan.
"That pretty girl, could you please help me out with a shot?" The cameraman explained, "We felt that a promotional video with only handsome men would be too thin. If we had a mix of handsome men and beautiful women, maybe we could expand the audience."
Uncle Zhou nodded in agreement, "Yes, just shoot a couple's video."
Shooting couple videos with Xu Jiangcuo...
That scene flashed through Song Lehan's mind. It was pretty good...
"No, brother."
Before Song Lehan could say anything, Xu Jiangcuo refused.
"She's a celebrity. If her boss sees this video, the money she'll ask for is more than my uncle Zhou can afford."
Cameraman: "That's okay. We'll definitely be able to afford it when we make a profit."
"The money is secondary, the main thing is," Xu Jiangcuo said with a sly smile on his face. Just as he was about to continue to refute, he was stopped by Song Lehan.
"I can take pictures, but I can't show my face."
Uncle Zhou: "No problem, no problem. We also want a sense of atmosphere."
With the addition of Song Lehan, the camera team seemed to have new ideas and started discussing them incessantly.
But Xu Jiangcuo felt a little depressed.
"I'm sorry, I didn't ask you here to take advantage of your celebrity status." He blamed himself.
Song Lehan didn't care. "It doesn't matter. I wanted to take the photo myself anyway."
"What?" Xu Jiangcuo didn't hear clearly.
"I said, I want to take the photo myself." Song Lehan moved closer, raised his voice, and repeated, "I want to take the photo with you."
"Click", the chopsticks in Xu Jiangcuo's hand fell.
