Chapter 210: Stand-in Lover (22)
World Seven. Stand-in Lover (22)
All clues pointed in the same direction.
Since Xue Li could hide her identity from Chi Yu back then, why couldnt Chi Yu hide his identity from Xue Li?
The tacit understanding between the two was vividly reflected in the best way.
Perhaps neither of them were intentional or malicious, but they have invisibly contributed to the widening of the hidden rift between them, which eventually could not be healed.
Fate is sometimes such a coincidence, making one feel helpless.
Why did you ask that suddenly?
Just when Xue Xue thought that Chi Yu would not answer her, Chi Yu opened his mouth. His voice was calm, but Xue Xue could tell from the change in Chi Yus gesture of gripping the steering wheel that the man was infact nervous.
Why was he nervous? Naturally because of a guilty conscience.
Xue Xue understands human nature very well. Chi Yus character may be a bit unpredictable, but the general framework always remains the same.
In the past, because of Xue Lis concealment, he put himself in the position of the victim and was angry at her behavior. It was a sense of betrayal by deception that allowed Chi Yu to rationalize the series of hurtful acts he had done and to put the same mistakes he had made behind him in a justifiable manner.
But it was different now.
After Xue Xue opened up her heart and talked with him, and expressing the knot in her heart with a sincere attitude, Chi Yus excuses were gone.
Whatever disadvantage Xue Li was in before, Chi Yu was now in the same position.
Because you seem to know those people, obviously you are not in the same circle. Xue Xue said in a joking tone. Ah Yu, you used to always say that I was hiding from you, but now that I have told you everything clearly, you dont have anything to hide from me, do you?
Hearing this, Chi Yus expression didnt change at all.
Because of this, Xue Xue can be more sure.
Chi Yu also didnt confess to Xue Li.
In this relationship, both of them were dishonest.
In a stagnant atmosphere, they arrived at their destination.
The traditional building is located halfway up the mountain in the suburb. At this time, the sky has completely darkened, and a row of traditional paper lanterns hung on both sides of the painted red gate, swinging against the evening wind.
When Xue Xue was about to unbuckle her seat belt and get out of the car, Chi Yu suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Xue Xue turned around and met Chi Yus gaze
Deep and profound, like the lake they passed by just now, immersed in the night and blending with the night.
Chi Yu was facing against the light, and the contours of his facial features were haloed in the flickering shadows, making them vague and unreal.
Xue Xue waited for what Chi Yu would say.
If Chi Yu didnt plan to say anything, then she decided to put the man aside tonight to reflect on it.
With this in mind, Xue Xue was not in a hurry. She returned to her seat with her arms crossed, as if to show to Chi Yu that she would not get out of the car until he explained clearly.
Chi Yus lips moved seemingly wanting to say something, but he seemed unable to say anything.
Xue Xues patience was being consumed bit by bit.
In this mission, because the client has only one requirement and the target was very clear, Xue Xue specifically explained to the system that it was fine to come out when the mission is completed.
After all, the system also needed to rest.
Although this was a bit of a blind mans imagination, Xue Xue believed in her intuition and judgment. Chi Yus favorability will definitely increase, but it was hard to say how much it has increased. The key was to rely on this time.
Break the secret in Chi Yus heart.
Xue Xue had a hunch that this was also inextricably related to Chi Yus fear of blackening, of course, the premise was that the direction she had assumed before was correct.
The two of them sat in the car like this, one moved his mouth and didnt speak, and the other turned her head and didnt want to speak.
Their scheduled time was seven oclock, and now the number displayed on the dashboard was six fifty, with less than ten minutes left.
Chi Yus cell phone on the holder suddenly rang.
After he glanced at it, he cut it off directly.
Xue Xue
When Xue Xue glanced at him, Chi Yu felt his heart tighten.
I didnt mean not to tell you. Chi Yu paused for a moment between each word, apparently weighing his words carefully. I just dont think its necessary because
Because of what? Chi Yu couldnt think of an accurate word to describe it for a while, so Xue Xue simply said it for him.
I understand, just like I did before. There was no concealment of irony in the words. Its okay, I understand. If you dont want to say it, dont say it. Its meaningless to force it.
Chi Yu knew that Xue Xue was angry.
This was a very rare thing for Chi Yu. He has no experience in coaxing people, so he was helpless.
However, Xue Xue didnt give him another chance, and pushed the car door to get out of the car, and even used extra force when closing the door, the door shut with a loud sound, which seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night.
At this moment, Chi Yu finally knew what it meant to be out of words, and he indeed didnt know what to say.
He scratched his hair irritably, turned around and walked out after seeing Xue Xue glaring at him. He got out of the car and chased after her without thinking.
Xue Xue!
Let go! Xue Xue, whose wrist was grapped again, did not allow the man to hold her like the first time, but tried to shake him off. Im telling you to let go! Chi Yu!
I wont let go! Chi Yu had a strong premonition that if he let go this time, Xue Xue would fly away from him like the kite he used to fly when he was a child. Listen to me first, Xue Xue, calm down and listen to me first!
Seeing Xue Xues agitation, Chi Yu had no choice but to pull her into his arms.
After all, there was a gap between the strength of men and women, especially when Chi Yu was determined, and his two arms were like chains to lock her firmly from the back. After Xue Xue struggled for a while and found it was useless, she stopped.
However, even if she calmed down, Chi Yu could still feel how stiff her body was.
He stroked Xue Xues back with his palm back and forth.
After a long time, there was finally a response.
Hmph.
Although cold, it was better than not saying a word.
Xue Xue, give me a chance first, let me finish talking, okay? Xue Xue didnt say yes or no, but just tugged at his collar.
Im very happy that you are willing to tell me whats in your heart. Really, I havent been this happy for a long, long time. Chi Yu said slowly when she acquiesced. As for the others I am indeed the owner of the coffee shop, and I am indeed someone who likes to travel around the world, but rather than saying that is my profession, I prefer to describe it as my dreams and ideals.
Its just Xue Xue, I do have other identities. The reason I dont tell you is because Im afraid you wont be able to accept it, because even I myself have done many stupid things when I was young in order to get rid of this status that shouldnt belong to me. .
