Chapter 66
"But I don't want to be with you." Ping An said a little tiredly, "Can you expect me to love you forever? Life can't be sustained by feelings alone. I can't stand it."
Cheng Xiangheng's eyes were red. "But I really like you, I really love you. I can't accept a life without you, Ping An. I've been so miserable for eight years without you."
Ping An was stunned and burst into tears.
Hasn't she suffered a lot in the past eight years?
"People always have to look forward, Cheng Xiangheng. Even if you can't get used to it now, you will get used to it in the future." She said with the tone of someone who has experienced it, "We will all grow up and not stay in the past forever, and you are no exception."
Cheng Xiangheng looked at Ping'an's face and smiled softly: "Ping'an, do you know what kind of life you have lived in the past?"
Ping An was confused: "What did you say?"
Cheng Xiangheng was unwilling to continue this topic, but suddenly brought up another matter: "Let's get engaged."
Ping An couldn't believe it: "You're crazy! Why should we get engaged?"
Cheng Xiangheng got up from the bed and ignored Ping An's questioning.
Ping An was about to go crazy. She followed Cheng Xiangheng out of bed and said, "What on earth do you want? I'm broke and have nothing! Why are you clinging to me?"
Cheng Xiangheng suddenly stopped and stared at Ping An.
——I want you to love me, I want you to like me.
Cheng Xiangheng couldn't bring himself to say this, so he said condescendingly, "When you think clearly, I won't lock you up anymore."
After saying that, he walked out of the room. Ping An followed him subconsciously, but found that Cheng Xiangheng had locked the door.
Damn it!
Even though Ping An has been tempered by the heavy hammers of life over the years, he still couldn't help but swear when facing Cheng Xiangheng's tyranny.
When Cheng Xiangheng went downstairs, the housekeeper came over and whispered, "Sir, Cheng Xiangzhang is here. He said he wants to see you."
Cheng Xiangheng's eyes flashed with impatience: "He's already a grasshopper in autumn, don't worry about him anymore. Don't let Ping An hear about these things, and don't let her come into contact with these people."
"yes."
For several days, Ping An was locked up in the villa by Cheng Xiangheng and could not get out. There were many bodyguards guarding the door, and there were housekeepers and servants watching her in the villa. No matter what she did, she was under everyone's surveillance.
Helplessly, she had to lie in her room every day, opening Xiaolujiang and reading novels until she was exhausted.
But Ping An also knew that life couldn't always be like this. Zhou Rugu studied for several years before he was admitted to university, and now he hasn't graduated yet. He still needs Ping An to give him living expenses.
Ping An must find a job quickly so that he can support a college student.
Ping'an wanted to see Cheng Xiangheng, but the housekeeper told him that he was preparing for their engagement and had no time to come back in the next two days.
"Are you that busy?" Ping'an likes to squat under a small tree in the garden recently. When he has nothing to do, he picks the grass on the ground. The surrounding grass has been picked bare.
The servants didn't know why Ping'an was digging the grass, and they were afraid of ruining her mood, so no one dared to repair the lawn.
Ping An didn't notice any of this. She muttered quietly, "Don't you like me? You just disappeared like that, and you won't let me go out. You even said you would give me a sense of security. What a liar."
"What's the difference between me and your canary? At least the canary can still call you, but I don't even have the chance to call you."
In fact, Ping An mailed her mobile phone to Xiao Qiu a few days ago. There were too many things in it, and she was afraid that Cheng Xiangheng would find it, so she needed Xiao Qiu's help to store it temporarily.
Cheng Xiangheng came back in the evening and brought a new mobile phone with him.
Ping An was startled and thought Cheng Xiangheng was eavesdropping on him.
Cheng Xiangheng turned around and saw Ping An standing in the corner like a frightened cat, at a loss. He chuckled in his heart, but frowned on his face: "Didn't you ask the housekeeper to give your phone to your friend a few days ago? You have a new phone?"
Ping An breathed a sigh of relief, happily took the phone, and found that it was the latest model. He then looked at Cheng Xiangheng cautiously.
Cheng Xiangheng turned around and took off his clothes, and hung his coat on the hanger.
Ping An sighed in his heart that it was good to be rich, and then happily played with his new phone.
Cheng Xiangheng waited until Ping An relaxed before turning around to look at her.
Ping'an felt like he was imprisoned, but he was very calm. He ate and slept as usual, without any of the pain that a prisoner should feel.
But he didn't know how to open her heart.
The long years have made Ping An wear heavy armor. She seems gentle, as if anyone can be her friend and she can accept any difficulties calmly, but in fact no one can get into her heart.
Eight years ago, Ping An was cute, enthusiastic and generous. Eight years later, Ping An is cautious and reluctant to open his heart.
How can we obtain peaceful love?
Ping An suddenly raised his head from his phone, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Cheng Xiangheng, I want to learn how to drive."
They both knew what she wanted to do after she learned to drive.
Cheng Xiangheng looked at Ping An deeply: "Okay, I'll teach you."
