Ying Han was unconvinced and retorted, "I didn't plan to eat her buns."
"You can escape this time, but what about yesterday? What would you have done if you hadn't met me yesterday?"
Ying Han was stunned by what he said. This time he did not refute. Instead, he smiled, moved closer to him, and nodded, "Yeah, thanks to you, you are my hero."
Deng Chen wanted to teach her a lesson and tell her not to travel far alone, but he was stunned by Ying Han's teasing. His ears felt slightly hot and he didn't know how to respond to her for a moment.
Ying Han looked at his slightly embarrassed expression and smiled secretly.
For some reason, looking at Deng Chen who acted like a teacher, I suddenly wanted to tease him.
Actually, this is her subtle confession, right? Why is she reacting like this?
Or was I too tactful and he didn't understand what I meant?
Anyway, this little episode passed just like that.
The journey was also peaceful.
When they got home, it was just after 9 o'clock in the evening. Ying Han did not go home, but was sent to the small building by Deng Chen.
"Would you like to come in and sit down, have a cup of hot water before going back?"
"No, I'm going back first."
Just as Deng Chen turned around, Ying Han suddenly grabbed his left sleeve.
After opening his mouth several times, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Deng Chen, do you have a partner?"
Deng Chen was taken aback by Ying Han's sudden question and answered blankly, "No."
His expression was calm, but his heart was already pounding.
"What do you...think of me?"
"You're fine."
"Then would you like to consider me?" Ying Han thought a lot along the way. If it was Deng Chen in this life, it would not be bad either.
And on the train, she might have been too tactful, and Deng Chen didn't understand, so she should be more straightforward.
Someone has to take this step, so let her do it.
After a long time, Deng Chen spoke, "Hanhan, you are good. You deserve better, not me. It's late, get some rest and don't think too much." As Deng Chen spoke, he pulled her hand away with his other hand.
The words were so calm and indifferent, so calm that even I felt it was too unreal.
He left Ying Han's sight as if escaping. He was afraid that if he walked too slowly, he would regret it.
He thought a lot while in the car.
He could see that Ying Han treated him differently, but what could he do? He couldn't respond to her.
How can I give a girl happiness in my current state?
Just before you get too deep into it, say no.
Even if I reject her idea, there will always be a day when I will see things clearly, right?
Deng Chen refused bluntly. Ying Han stared at him blankly, her mind blank. She had never expected that Deng Chen would refuse so bluntly.
Looking at Deng Chen's back, she choked up and wanted to call him and ask why, but she dared not speak. She bit her lip and her eyes turned red. Tears were already in her eyes. She didn't know when, they had already hung on her face, blurring her vision. Looking at the disappearing back, she muttered to herself, "Did he reject her?"
What's wrong with me that he looks down on me?
God gave her a rebirth. After a lot of effort, she let go of Yan Xing and wanted to have a relationship, but she was rejected so abruptly.
How failed her understanding of love was. She actually thought that Deng Chen also liked her.
He returned to the room in a daze, hugged his knees tightly with his hands, curled up in the corner of the bed, and rested his head on his legs. He could no longer control the inexplicable discomfort in his heart and burst into tears.
...
Deng Chen did not go back. He stood by the window of the room rented by the shoe factory, looking at the dim light in Ying Han's bedroom on the second floor for a long time. He turned around, touched his heart, and felt unbearable pain.
He had just rejected a good girl in person, and what was she doing now?
Is she crying because she is angry or sad? She is crying.
It’s okay to cry, crying will help you forget.
....
Ying Han didn't know when he fell asleep. He just lay in the corner of the bed without taking off his clothes or covering himself with a blanket.
I definitely caught a cold, my nose was rumbling and I didn't want to move at all.
I had been away for so many days and was afraid that my parents would worry, so I went into the space, drank some space water, packed up simply, and went home.
Deng Chen watched Ying Han go out, and only went downstairs to go home after seeing that she was fine.
Ying Han returned home around 10 o'clock. Her eyes were red and swollen because she cried for too long yesterday. She felt uncomfortable when she woke up in the morning and didn't look in the mirror.
After returning home, Ying's mother was shocked when she saw her daughter's two eyes and messy hair. Her first thought was that her daughter was bullied.
Without asking anything, he hugged Ying Han, hammered her twice in regret, and said in a tearful voice, "You dead girl, I told you not to go, but you insisted on going. Now you're in trouble. Who is it? Your father and I will go over and chop her up."
Ying Han was stunned by her mother's actions. She opened her puffy eyes and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Who was bullied?"
"You weren't bullied? How did you become like this?"
"I was catching a train and I had a cold."
"Nothing happened over there?"
"No, I'm fine, and I even earned five hundred dollars."
"It's better not to earn this kind of sinful money. You just ran away like that without asking for permission. Do you know how worried your father and I have been these past few days?"
"Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry. But luckily, I met Deng Chen over there, and we can look after each other."
"Hanhan is back."
"Dad, um, I'm back."
When Mr. Ying heard the noise from below, he hurried downstairs. Seeing the mother and daughter hugging each other, his daughter's eyes were swollen like frog eyes. He asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"Just a cold."
"Why did you meet him again? My daughter and he really have a deep connection. Did he bully you?"
"Who bullied you?" When Mr. Ying heard that his daughter was bullied, he frowned and stepped forward.
"Dad, no, I'm fine. I just caught a cold last night. I'm going upstairs to rest first."
"Have you taken medicine for your cold? Ask your mother to buy you some."
“I bought it when I just got back.”
"Take the medicine first and then go up and rest."
"...Oh, okay."
Ying Han frowned. She just said it casually and didn't buy any medicine at all.
After drinking a sip of the water in the space, her cold will be cured by the afternoon.
Ying Han pursed her lips, slowly took out her bag, and after rummaging for a long time, she took out the oil paper that wrapped the roasted chicken she had eaten a few days ago.
Then he took it out and quickly went into the kitchen. "Mom and Dad, I'm going to the kitchen to take medicine. You guys go ahead and do your work."
Ying's father and mother really didn't catch up this time, which made Ying Han breathe a sigh of relief.
He pretended to have taken medicine, said hello, and went straight upstairs.
The couple downstairs felt more and more that something was wrong with their daughter.
"How can the eyes be so swollen when you have a cold? Take the child to the hospital."
Ying's mother glared at Ying's father and said, "Hanhan said that, and you really believed it. Haven't you seen that your daughter's current appearance is very similar to my usual appearance after crying?"
Father Ying was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized, "You mean the child is crying, and someone bullied her."
