C165 (2/2)

”What are you doing!?” Let me go! If Jiang Yu were to know about your … ”

”Don't ever mention him to me again!” ”At least don't mention him when we're alone.” At this point, his voice lowered even further.

”Then let me go! What are you doing here for me! Are you trying to force me to do something I don't want to do?! ”

I'm still afraid of what he did last time, and I'm really afraid he might do something bad to me.

”Xiao Ye, don't worry. Today, I brought you here because I want a completely quiet space. Didn't you always want to know what my difficulties are? I'll tell you. ”

He smiled wryly, then went back to the bar, and after a moment, as before, got himself a glass of melon milk.

”Drink him, and I'll tell you while I drink.”

He pushed the milk in front of me and looked at me.

”You didn't put anything in it, did you?” I looked at him warily. I did like closed milk, but he gave it to me, so I didn't dare to drink it.

”You weren't like this in the past. What made you become someone that everyone suspects?” He looked at me with a bleak look in his eyes,

”People change! Five years had really changed a lot! I told you about that a long time ago. ”

He didn't say anything. He took the melon milk from my side of the table, took a swig, and then placed it in front of me.

”I don't want the cup you drank.”

As I said this, he went to the side and took another glass, tirelessly pouring the milk into the other cup.

”Can we drink now? There's nothing wrong with the cup, and there's nothing wrong with the milk. ”

”Alright, just say what you want to say. I'm all ears.”

The rest of the time was left entirely to him. It was his business what he wanted to say, and it was my business whether I listened or not.

”Back then, when I chose to leave you, I truly had my own difficulties. However, I was unable to explain those difficulties to you.”

”You didn't have a way to say it back then, but now you have a way to say it?” ”You're really funny.” I smiled and shook my head at the same time. I didn't believe him when he said that.

”What I said is true. I don't want to see you continue to be obsessed with someone you shouldn't be. I don't want to see you continue like this! ”I was the one who caused all of this …” He lowered his head as he spoke.

”If I had told you my troubles earlier, wouldn't it have been like this for the two of us?” The phone, he seemed to be asking me, always asking himself, but I couldn't answer him.

Everyone wanted to walk higher and higher. Who didn't have their own difficulties? Who could be said to have truly escaped unscathed?

But no matter how much difficulties I have, I won't use the painful life of the person I love as the price to achieve the goal I want, nor will I sell my feelings to exchange for money and power!

But I didn't say that out loud. I just looked at him quietly. I wanted to see what exactly he wanted to tell me about the philosophy of life!

Didn't he have his own difficulties? Then I'll let him say it all at once!

”Do you remember my parents?”

As he spoke, my mind began to fill with images of, apart from, say, two benevolent middle-aged and elderly people.
