Chapter 231 Indelible Traces
After hearing this, Yun Ran looked at the big dog with its tongue sticking out in the photo, and felt sad.
She didn't expect that Li Ting would actually do all this, properly placing the furry pet that had been with her for several years and accompanying it through its final moments.
No wonder, when she first came to Yujingyuan, she felt that the layout around Li Ting's villa was like raising a pet.
It turned out that it wasn't her illusion.
"I'm sorry." Li Ting squeezed her hand. "I couldn't keep it. I couldn't hold on until you came back."
"You've done well enough." Yun Ran shook his head. "Li Ting, I should thank you."
"Let's not talk about that." Li Ting smiled. "I just want you to be happy. What you cherish, I cherish as well, so there's no need to thank you."
Yun Ran lowered his eyes for a long moment before asking, "When did you get to know me?"
"I saw that you collected my high school photos. Did you know me back then?"
When Li Ting heard this question, he was silent for a few seconds.
The first meeting and heartbeat in the past only exist in his memory, Yun Ran does not remember it.
He actually didn't want to tell Yun Ran about those experiences. Yun Ran didn't remember them, so there was no need for him to impose his feelings on her.
He cared more about their future than their past.
The small compartment where the photos were stored contained his carefully treasured memories. He had not expected Yun Ran to see them, so he was inevitably caught off guard at this moment.
However, he would not hide anything from Yun Ran. Since she had seen it and asked, he would definitely tell her everything.
After considering his words for a while, Li Ting said, "Do you still remember that in your second year of high school, you helped a classmate in a wheelchair?"
Second year of high school, wheelchair...
Yun Ran frowned as she recalled the past. Suddenly, a scene flashed through her mind. She looked up suddenly, her eyes wide open: "You...you can't be?"
"That was me." Li Ting looked at her. "At that time, I had just transferred to your school. Because of my disability and because my family had abandoned me, many people isolated me, bullied me, and devalued me, instigated by my half-brother."
As a teenager, he has a very strong sense of self-esteem. Li Ting had suffered many injustices and was already upset. Then he was bullied. It can be said that he was completely shrouded in darkness.
Gradually, he developed self-loathing, stopped talking to people, and no longer responded to the outside world.
He hated himself for being disabled and unable to stand up, and he also hated the suffocating home.
It was in this mood that Qin Qing appeared.
She broke into his dark world and illuminated a corner of his life.
When he was being bullied, she rushed forward, argued for him, scolded those villains who took advantage of the situation, and helped him back to the wheelchair after he fell to the ground in a mess.
She said, don't care about the opinions of those fence-sitters. People live their lives for themselves. If they are swept up in rumors, everything they did right will become wrong, and their good life will be ruined, which will play into their hands.
She smiled and brushed the dust off his clothes, like a warm lamp, leaving an indelible mark in his heart.
Li Ting's gaze couldn't help but stay on Qin Qing.
He didn't have the courage to rush up to her and get to know her, so he could only pay attention to her silently.
Then he knew who she was, understood her abilities, and witnessed her excellence and beauty.
How could he be worthy of getting close to such a person?
