Chapter 201 (1/2)

Looking at the ceiling, Sheng Jiaoyang slowly said her true words.

”I should like you, but I can't deceive myself, and I don't want to deceive you any more. I just don't like you enough to be close to you, no matter how deep. I can't miss you as much as I do when I first fell in love. Even if you are too close, I think it's a burden. ”

Shen Zhining listened quietly without speaking.

”I don't have the courage to love someone anymore. I may never love you.”

It's hard to love another person as much as it used to be when he or she has loved him or her.

This is the reality.

There was silence in the room. Sheng Jiaoyang didn't speak any more, just waiting for his reply.

For a long time, when she thought she was going to sleep, she heard Shen Zhining's plain voice, which could not be heard.

”Sleep.” He said only these two words.

Sheng Jiaoyang's heart trembled for a moment, and then she hooked up her lower lip with self mockery. It's also hard for her to accept if she hears this, let alone Shen Zhining!

Mingming should be very sleepy, but the sun is not sleepy, even with her eyes closed, but she just can't sleep.

All of a sudden, she felt that she was hypocritical, and at the same time she was close to Shen Zhining and rejected him. Her character should not be like this, but what emotion is the most difficult thing to control.

Near dawn, Sheng Jiaoyang just fell asleep completely. When she woke up, there was no one on her side.

She stared at the flat quilt beside her. She didn't know whether she was relieved or lost.

She should be happy. After all, since she won't fall in love with others, it's good to say that she'll leave early, so that she won't regret when she really wants to get married. It's very harmful to anyone.

But now she can't be happy. Her mind is in a mess.

After a long time, she sat up and reached for her cell phone on the bedside table. She wanted to see the time, but she felt a box. She paused her hand and looked around. There was a beautifully packaged gift box on the bedside table.

The look in her eyes changed. Her fingers touched the edge of the gift box, but she stopped.

It's self-evident who this gift box is.

She didn't know which corner of the glasses she had lost was also placed next to the gift box. She went to get the gift box and picked up the glasses instead.

With a long breath, she got up and got out of bed. She didn't go to see or manage the gift box anymore.

”Oh, our longevity is coming down!” When she went downstairs, she heard the voice made by Liang Dahui.

Sheng Jiao went on without changing her color. Her eyes swept all the people in the living room, and sure enough I didn't see that man.

She doesn't want to know when he left.

”Do you have enough sleep, Jiao Jiao? Hungry or not? You've got porridge and breakfast in the kitchen. Would you like some now? ” Asked Xu Qing with concern.

”No, it's going to be lunch soon.”

In order to show politeness, Sheng Jiaoyang said hello to old lady Xu who was sitting on the sofa holding a glass of water.

I didn't see Xu Ping and xiao'an Xiaohu. Sheng Jiaoyang asked Aunt Zhang who was adding fruit to the tea table. Knowing that they were playing in the children's playroom, I didn't ask any more questions.

Suddenly the phone rings. It's a video phone installed on the wall beside the porch.

”Who will be here now?”

Aunt Zhang went over with a murmur. She first looked at who it was. When she saw the man standing outside the gate dressed in sleek clothes and carrying something in both hands, she answered the phone as soon as she saw the person visiting. The man standing outside the gate spoke softly and gently. It was very polite. Aunt Zhang asked about his origin and meaning, and asked the other party to wait for a moment.

Yang Laozi and an Jing talk about things in the study, and Aunt Zhang asks the little master.

”Sheng?” Sheng Jiaoyang squints his eyes.

She looked toward the door. ”Then bring him in.”

The middle-aged man surnamed Sheng has no one else but Sheng Xun. But what is he doing here at this time?

After a while, I saw Aunt Zhang leading a man in.

The man's hair is half white, wearing a dark gray coat, a face of vicissitudes. It's really Sheng Xun! He had something in both hands and a cake in one.

”Eh? Why are you here, brother-in-law? ” Liang Dahui's surprised voice rang out.

Sheng Xun just gave Liang Dahui a blank look. He handed all kinds of health products with one hand to Aunt Zhang. Then he went to Sheng Jiaoyang with a cake in his hand. He looked at her deeply and said, ”I know you have a birthday today, so I bought you a cake.”

”I can't take your cake, it's not from my family.” Sheng Jiaoyang didn't pick up the cake.

Sheng Xun's face didn't change. He said to himself, ”this is your favorite mousse cake.”

Hearing that Sheng Yan's face had changed, she stared at Sheng Xun closely, and did not miss any expression on his face, but he could not see anything.Mousse cake is what she likes to eat, not what Xu Jiaojiao likes to eat.

So what does he want to say to show her identity?

”Thank you.” Sheng Jiaoyang took the cake and handed it to Aunt Zhang.
