"Mom, don't worry about me! I'm already this old! " Shi Ran immediately stood up and took the initiative to hug her mother.
Shi Ran suddenly realized that his mother was much shorter than him.
When she was young, she always felt that her mother was especially tall and capable, as if she could do anything.
When she was young, she always felt relieved to have her mother around.
When she was young, she had always felt that as long as her mother was by her side, she would have nothing to fear, no matter the weather.
But at this time, Shi Ran suddenly felt that his mother was really old.
Although he was still in good shape, his thin and weak shoulders could no longer take on too much wind and rain.
Wrinkles began to form in the corners of her eyes, and her once round face began to relax.
Although Shi Ran didn't want to admit it, this was the reality.
Shi Ran suddenly started to blame himself.
How unfilial he was, letting his mother worry about him, it wasn't good if he didn't sleep well.
"Mom ??" Shi Ran spoke in a soft and gentle voice, just like when he was young. He no longer had the high-spirited attitude that he had when he was young.
Shi Yi Jin immediately smiled.
She raised her hand to pat the back of her son's hand. "You're already so old, and yet you still act coquettishly towards your mother."
"Mom, I won't let you down." Shi Ran said in a low voice, "I just want to persevere a little longer and try again. I don't want to miss the happiness of my life. If Xiao He really decides to give up on me and chooses Qiao Er, I will let go of him as well. "
"Alright. Mother believes in you, you are so amazing, you will definitely find your way. " Shi Yi Jin smiled and said: "It's getting late, you should go rest early."
"Yes." Shi Ran slowly let go of Shi Yi Jin.
Shi Yi Jin said slowly: "Tomorrow your brother is going to participate in the school's activities, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to get up early to prepare some things for him."
"Mm, Mom, good night." Shi Ran said with a smile.
"Good night." Shi Yi Jin stood up and left with a smile.
While Shi Yi Jin was talking with Shi Ran, Xiao Zhe sat on the cold stairs by himself and looked at the moon in the sky in a daze.
The current Xiao Zhe was already twenty-two years old.
She was originally a mixed blood beauty of the three kingdoms, but after she opened her eyes, she became even more beautiful.
After so many years of nurturing and training, Xiao Zhe was already a talent that could take charge on his own.
He had done a lot of things for Shi Ran.
It was late at night, but she was still unable to sleep.
Today, Shi Ran's expression was very strange.
Xiao Zhe knew that all of Shi Ran's problems were related to him.
All these years, Xiao Zhe had always been secretly watching Shen He, watching how the once cute Princess had transformed into the Empire's princess.
Xiao Zhe felt that he had grown very fast, but compared to the Imperial Princess, the difference was just too big.
It should be reasonable for Shi Ran to like the Imperial Princess, right?
However, why was his heart so sore?
Why was it so hard to bear?
Shi Ran was dressed so handsomely today, was he going to go on a date with Shen He?
Yes To... Confess to Shen He?
Yes To... With Shen He?
When he thought of this possibility, Xiao Zhe felt even more uncomfortable.
Shi Ran loved Shen He so much, and he loved him so much while laughing for so long.
It seemed like a dead knot.
They were all tied together, and no one had the strength to break this knot.
Therefore, they could only stay where they were, feeling depressed, conflicted, and in pain.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" A voice came from behind him. Xiao Zhe turned around and saw that it was Tom from the team.
Tom was a typical American, with a very large skeleton and a bulky appearance.
"You haven't slept either?" Xiao Zhe immediately straightened his back and looked at Tom: "I can't sleep, so I'll just sit here and watch the moon."
Tom sat beside Xiao Zhe, and looked at the moon together with Xiao Zhe, and said: "Are you worrying about Shi Ran? Today, when he went out, he really did look like he was preoccupied with something. Xiao Zhe, there are some things that we have been holding back for a long time, we do not know how to tell you. However, we are still a team and we are family, so we can't bear to see you always looking depressed. "
"I know." Xiao Zhe lowered his eyes and said: "Tom, tell me, will he give up on us?"
"That won't happen!" I believe in him! " Tom is a natural optimist, and the most enthusiastic person in the team: "We have been through so many trials and hardships together, but we will not abandon any of us."
Xiao Zhe said in a low voice, "But, I can't get any response from him."
"Xiao Zhe, although it's a bit cruel to say this. But I still want to say, give up. You have liked him for so long, you have seen it clearly. The person Shi Ran liked, had always been that Imperial Princess. You can't compare to her. If you continue this way, you will only end up with wounds all over your body. " Tom said bluntly, "How long can you last? Aren't you tired? "
"Why aren't you tired?" Xiao Zhe replied: "But I simply can't let it go. After so many years of being together, so many years of feelings, they had already sunk deep into the marrow, deep into the soul. How could he just give up like that? Tom, if I had to give up, I'd have to leave. "
Tom fell silent.
He couldn't let Xiao Zhe leave.
"Alright, stop trying to persuade me." Xiao Zhe opened his mouth and said, "I appreciate your good intentions. I won't give up so easily. I'm only twenty-two years old, and I still have a lot of patience. "
Tom shrugged helplessly and said, "Alright then. I don't know what to say. You have always been a very considerate person. This kind of thing is not something that others can casually deny. Just protect yourself well and don't let yourself get hurt all the time. "
Xiao Zhe nodded.
After Tom left, Xiao Zhe continued to look at the moon in the sky.
There was only a crescent moon left, I don't know how many people could sit on it ??
It seemed that many people had not slept well that night.
Shi Ran and Xiao Zhe couldn't sleep, so how could Shen He sleep peacefully?
When the sky was about to brighten, Shen He finally fell asleep.
Probably because everyone in the family knew that Shen He did not sleep well last night, no one disturbed her.
The na
y who did the cleaning walked softly, afraid of waking her up.
However, Shen He still woke up.
The biological clock was truly a magical species, it could not survive its faithful function.
Shen He woke up around 8 in the morning. She looked at the time and got up.
When Shen He walked down the stairs, she saw that there was no one at home, they had probably all gone out.
At this time, Gong Zi Ya bustled in from outside, and said to Shen He the moment she entered the door: "Xiao He, you've finally woken up."
"Hmm? Why are you here? " Shen He looked at Gong Zi Ya in shock: "Weren't you always busy helping Mummy these past few days?"
"No matter how helpful I am, I have to do my job well!" Gong Zi Ya passed a document to Shen He: "Oh right, the Shi Xiao Yan you asked me to investigate, has done something big today."
