Wen Qiuning's mind flashed with the scene of Yu Xiangyang tearing the letter into four pieces again and again and throwing it into the trash can without any care.
She blinked a few times, and her cold eyes met Yu Xiangyang's gaze. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Yu Xiangyang: “···” That’s not what he meant!
"That's not what I meant," Yu Xiangyang said somewhat embarrassedly. "I'm very grateful that you wrote to me to enlighten me, to encourage me, and to help me through that difficult time."
Wen Qiuning looked at him calmly.
She had long known that men said one thing and meant another.
If Yu Xiangyang was truly grateful, he would not have thrown the letter into the trash can like a worn-out shoe.
She waited for Yu Xiangyang's next words so that she could know what Yu Xiangyang's purpose was in saying these words today.
Yu Xiangyang thought Wen Qiuning would say something, such as: You're welcome, I'm glad I could be of some help to you... and so on.
But after waiting for a long time, Wen Qiuning didn't speak.
Yu Xiangyang had no choice but to speak up himself.
He said, "Mr. Wen, I regard you as a revolutionary comrade. If you encounter difficulties, I am willing to do my best to help you."
After a pause, he continued, "I am a soldier. Helping you is out of mission and responsibility."
Wen Qiuning is such a cold person, yet he wrote several letters in succession to encourage him. Could it be that he has some feelings for him?
Whether it exists or not, he has to make it clear first!
There will definitely be many opportunities for the two of them to interact in the future, and he doesn't want to have these confusions and worries anymore.
Wen Qiuning understood the meaning behind Yu Xiangyang's words and said calmly, "Yu Xiangyang, don't worry. I don't like you and I never will. I'm writing to you purely out of admiration for the heroes of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. I don't have any other intentions at all."
She has seen the ugliness of men, and she will never have any romantic feelings for a man in her life.
Yu Xiangyang felt relieved and said, "Let's be friends from now on."
Wen Qiuning didn't agree, but just asked: "Do you have anything else?"
Yu Xiangyang said: "No more. I heard that the old man escaped..."
Before he could finish his words, Wen Qiuning interrupted him, "It's getting late, An An must be hungry, you should take him back."
Wen Qiuning squatted down and touched An An's smooth little face.
An An was very obedient and was held by Yu Xiangyang's hand. She stood patiently and waited for the two to finish talking.
At this moment, he looked at Wen Qiuning, who was about the same height as him, and grinned, "Auntie."
Wen Qiuning also smiled from the bottom of her heart, "An An, Auntie is a little busy today, I will come to see you another day."
An An didn't understand such a long sentence and looked confused. Wen Qiuning waved to him and said, "An An, goodbye."
Now An An understood and waved, "Auntie, goodbye."
Yu Xiangyang brought An An back home. The whole family was waiting for them and the food had gotten cold.
Yu Xiangnian asked, "Where did you take An An?"
Yu Xiangyang didn't want to talk about what happened just now, so he changed the subject, "Let's eat quickly, An An is hungry."
Who knew An An was beside her, "Auntie."
Yu Xiangnian understood. She glanced at Yu Xiangyang and said nothing more.
After lunch, Yu Xiangnian pulled Yu Xiangyang into the room.
"Are you going to see Wen Qiuning again?" Yu Xiangnian asked.
"Isn't it possible?" Yu Xiangyang asked back.
Yu Xiangnian said dissatisfiedly, "Didn't I tell you that you can care about her and help her, but don't get too close to her all of a sudden. You speak without thinking, and I'm afraid you'll hurt her again."
Yu Xiangyang: “...” Will the words he just said hurt her?
Yu Xiangnian looked at Yu Xiangyang's hesitation and knew that he had said something bad today.
"What did you say to Wen Qiuning?" she asked with a frown.
Yu Xiangyang said: "Those letters were written to me by her."
Yu Xiangnian had long forgotten about the letter, "What letter?"
"Those were the letters of encouragement I received after I was burned. At the time, I thought they were written by Wu Xiaomin, but today I discovered they were written by Wen Qiuning."
Yu Xiangnian was also surprised for a moment, "So? You went to find her?"
"Yu Xiangyang, I tell you there's something wrong with you!" Yu Xiangnian angrily said, "She wrote you an anonymous letter because she didn't want you to know who she was, and yet you went out of your way to find her and expose her?! She encouraged and comforted you in the letter, and she didn't intimidate or threaten you. Why did you go to her?!"
Yu Xiangyang now regretted his impulsive behavior this morning. "I'm just worried that she likes me. I have to explain it to her in advance to avoid unnecessary trouble."
After all, Lin Ye said that she liked him without any warning, which made him feel embarrassed for a long time.
Wen Qiuning thought this was a sign, and he had to take precautions.
"Wen Qiuning likes you?!" Yu Xiangnian sneered, his tone even heavier. "Bullshit... Where on earth do you get the confidence to think Wen Qiuning likes you?!"
Wen Qiuning hadn't even glanced at that man who was dozens of times better than Yu Xiangyang in the law department. How could she possibly be interested in Yu Xiangyang?!
Yu Xiangnian said in a bad tone: "Yu Xiangyang, you are too confident! Do you think Wen Qiuning wrote to you because she likes you? I will tell you the reason now!"
"You helped her before. That's the most fundamental reason! When she was harassed by that idiot and had no other options, you helped her selflessly without asking for anything in return. She's grateful to you, so when you were at your lowest point in life, she encouraged you!"
"Wen Qiuning has a bigger vision than you. She doesn't have these romantic thoughts in her mind. You can rest assured that she won't like you!"
"Even if she likes you, I still disagree! Wen Qiuning's mind and intelligence surpass yours by a hundred times. While you're thinking about stealing fruit and falling in love, she's thinking about how to realize the meaning of life!"
Yu Xiangyang lowered his head as if he had been taught a lesson.
He regretted it!
He was really impulsive today and might have hurt Wen Qiuning again.
Seeing Yu Xiangyang's guilty expression, Yu Xiangnian softened his tone and continued, "Yu Xiangyang, you don't understand her past. She's seen too much ugliness in the world, so she's wary of people and confines herself to herself, unwilling to have too much contact with others."
"I finally managed to get her to open the door and accept our family's kindness, letting her feel the warmth between people. But after your outburst today, she's locked herself away again!"
Yu Xiangyang said guiltily, "I really didn't mean it. I can apologize or do something else. You tell me, I can do anything."
Yu Xiangnian sighed in frustration, "Keep your distance from her."
"Also, learn more from Cheng Jingmo! Your straightforward and sincere personality is a plus, but when it comes to dealing with people and things, you should suppress your strengths a little bit!"
At this time, Wen Qiuning was busy in the bookstore, and a few words like this could not hurt her.
She didn't care about other people's opinions at all. She just secretly reminded herself to keep a distance from Yu Xiangyang in the future and not cause him trouble.
Except for Yu Xiangnian and An An Keke, she wants to keep a distance from everyone!
