268 “After Fast Traveling and Sleeping with the Villain” World 8, Him at the Same Desk (28)

“Su Xiangnan.”

“It’s okay.”

Xue Xue repeated these two sentences, and his soft voice was like the notes struck by a pianist’s fingertips, drilling into Su Xiangnan’s ears persistently.

He was sweating unknowingly.

Although the weather was so cold, he looked as if he had just finished playing football under the bright sun. Thin beads of sweat were pouring out of his pores from his forehead, cheeks, and neck.

Although there were tall walls to block the cold winter wind, the temperature was still less than ten degrees. Xue Xue was afraid that Su Xiangnan would catch a cold if he continued to stay here, so he helped him up with strength.

“Can you? Come and put your arm around my shoulder.” As he said this, Xue Xue pulled Su Xiangnan’s hand across his neck.”Shall we go home first?”

Su Xiangnan nodded.

After gradually easing from the despair, Su Xiangnan gradually regained her strength.

He felt quite useless.

But I have to admit that it feels really good to have someone protecting and supporting me…

However, they did not go directly home.

Xue Xue went to the convenience store and bought two cups of hot cocoa, one of which was given to Su Xiangnan.

They randomly found an empty seat and sat down.

“I’m sorry.” Su Xiangnan said hoarsely after taking the hot cocoa from Xue Xue.”I just… lost my temper.”

“Huh? Why are you saying sorry?” Hearing this, Xue Xue’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, her almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and then she lowered her eyelids.”Even if I have to say I’m sorry, I should be the one to say it.”

Su Xiangnan was stunned.

“Those things should be your scars.”

“It is a very immoral thing to uncover other people’s scars. My mother told me so.” Xue Xue opened the lid of the cup.”So, it’s me who should say sorry to you, not you who should say sorry to me.”

Her tone was too serious.

So serious that Su Xiangnan laughed.

After the laughter came out of his throat, his chest vibrated.

I don’t know when it had accumulated into a ball, and the depression that was heavy on my chest seemed to have found an opening and let it out.

Even the store clerk couldn’t help but look at them.

Xue Xue also laughed with him, finally feeling relieved.

In fact, Xue Xue was nervous until just now. After all, Su Xiangnan’s state was really worrying, as if he had lost his soul. The person was clearly next to him, but his spirit did not know where he had gone.

Fortunately, it looks much more normal now.

Although it was a bit regretful that she could not solve Su Xiangnan’s inner demons this time, Xue Xue also knew that this matter could not be rushed, not to mention that the matter was more complicated than she originally expected.

The line between victim and perpetrator is blurred, and even if it is not the intention, the fact remains.

All reasons just sound like excuses.

“I want…”

“I guess I should be braver.”

Su Xiangnan spoke before Xue Xue.

After swallowing the comfort that swirled on the tip of his tongue, Xue Xue looked at Su Xiangnan. The boy’s handsome side face lines were blurred by the steam coming out of the hot cocoa. Despite this, his eyebrows and eyes were still clear and neat, exuding a clean youthful air.

Perhaps because of the sweat just now, Su Xiangnan’s face looked paler than usual. Under the illumination of the incandescent lamp, it looked like a fragile product, so delicate that no flaws could be found.

“I can’t go back in time and change those mistakes, but I think I can work hard in the future to avoid making the same mistakes again.”

Su Xiangnan said slowly, and Xue Xue listened quietly.

In fact, did he really make any mistakes?At that time, he was just a child who didn’t understand anything, believed in his mother, and had admiration for his father. After listening to Su Lin’s words, he introduced himself to the unknown woman on the other end of the phone as if he were standing on the class podium. Is there anything wrong?

Lin Youfeng was at fault for having an affair, and Su Lin was at fault for interfering in other people’s marriages. But can an ignorant child, a child with no ill intentions, really be called a mistake for his unintentional mistakes?

Even Xue Xue didn’t know the answer to the question, or perhaps the question itself had no answer.

“In fact, I have always known it, and I have never forgotten it.”

“Lin Zhi was right what he said at that time. I was just a coward. I pretended to be strong on the outside, but on the inside I was just a coward. I knew there was a better decision, but I still chose to escape.”

“I don’t have the courage to face the past honestly. I’m afraid that one day everyone will say… Look, Su Xiangnan is not that good at all. He is just an illegitimate child who harmed other people’s lives.” Su Xiangnan tightened her hand on the paper cup.”Rather than being exposed in such an embarrassing way, it would be better…”

It’s worse than what, Su Xiangnan didn’t say clearly, but it’s not difficult to guess from the results.

Including what Lin Zhi said to Su Xiangnan when he went to the ward.

Everyone has self-esteem.

“Xue Xue.” Suddenly, Su Xiangnan called her: “There seems to be something I haven’t said to you…”

“Huh?” Xue Xue was holding hot cocoa, looking a little lazy, like a cat.”What words?”

The boy turned his head to look at her.

“I love you.” Under Xue Xue’s unclear eyes, he suddenly lowered his head.”And… thank you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a gentle kiss pressed on her forehead.
