After Tian Cao was safely delivered to the apartment, Chen Fan thought that Tian Cao and Tian Fang would be scared, so he tried to get them to live with him in the apartment where he and Susan lived together. In the end, both Tian Fang and Tian Cao said it was okay.
Therefore, Chen Fan did not force it, but returned directly to the apartment.
It was already midnight when Chen Fan arrived at the community where the apartment was located.
Perhaps because it was too late, most residents in the community had already fallen asleep, and only a few had lights on, including the apartment where Chen Fan and Susan lived together.
This girl, why aren't you sleeping at this late hour?
Seeing the lights in the apartment hall, Chen Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head, while speeding up his pace.
While quickly returning to the apartment, Chen Fan could clearly detect the members of the secret society hiding in the dark.
Perhaps because they knew Chen Fan's habits, the secret hall members did not show up to say hello to Chen Fan, but Chen Fan smiled and nodded in the direction where they were hiding.
five minutes later.
When Chen Fan opened the door and entered the apartment, he couldn't laugh or cry.
The wall-mounted TV in the living room was on, and the screen showed Susan's favorite Mango channel. However, Susan did not watch TV. Instead, she only wore an ice silk pajamas and fell asleep on the sofa.
.
With a wry smile, Chen Fan gently put on his slippers and walked straight to the sofa.
Perhaps because the weather is too hot, the central air conditioner in the living room is on.
Feeling the cold wind blowing from the air conditioner, Chen Fan walked up to Susan and looked at Susan's vaguely delicate body. He had the instinctive physiological reaction of a man, but there was no evil thought on his face, but he felt a little distressed: "This girl
Don’t you know that sleeping like this can easily catch a cold?”
With that said, Chen Fan picked up the remote control and turned off the air conditioner.
After doing all this, Chen Fan put down the remote control, bent down, held Susan's neck with one hand, held Susan's calf with the other, and hugged Susan up.
"Um……"
In her sleep, Susan seemed to have noticed something unusual, and she murmured in confusion, then snuggled into Chen Fan's arms like a well-behaved kitten.
Because during school, Susan had to set several alarm clocks every night before going to bed and could not get up in the morning. In this regard, Chen Fan had experience in Susan's heavy sleep.
Now he saw that Susan was still sleeping like a little pig after being picked up by him, and he couldn't help but smile. In his opinion, with Susan's current state, even if he sold Susan, Susan might still be dreaming.
Li and Zhou Gong discussed life.
"Ah... idiot, are you back?"
Just when Chen Fan was about to go upstairs with Susan in his arms, Susan's body trembled slightly in Chen Fan's arms, and her sleeping face showed an expression of joy, and the corners of her mouth outlined a happy smile.
smile.
Susan's excited voice sounded in his ears, and seeing the happy smile from the heart on Susan's face, Chen Fan thought that Susan had woken up, so he couldn't help but stop and looked down at Susan.
Under the light, Susan still had her eyes closed, her breathing was even, and she was still asleep.
Seeing this scene, Chen Fan couldn't help but be startled, but the smile on Susan's face seemed to be hidden suddenly and disappeared, replaced by an angry expression: "Humph, you idiot, it's not bad.
You have a conscience, and you finally knew it and rushed back before the first anniversary of our acquaintance."
But the first anniversary of our acquaintance?!
Hearing these words in shock, Chen Fan thought for a moment and realized that today was the first anniversary of his and Susan's acquaintance.
On this day last year, he came to Donghai alone. Not only did Su Qinghai take Susan to the airport to greet him, he also fulfilled the engagement in front of the two of them and let them move into a prepared apartment.
From that day on, Chen Fan and Susan began living together.
At the beginning of living together, Susan and Chen Fan were incompatible with each other. They had no big quarrels but constant small quarrels. It felt as if they were not feeling comfortable even if they did not quarrel. To describe it in one word, they were born to be enemies.
Later, as a series of things happened, Susan gradually fell in love with Chen Fan, but... the number of quarrels with Chen Fan plummeted.
It's not that Susan doesn't want to, it's just that she doesn't have the time.
Yes!
In the past year, apart from being with Susan during the beginning of school, Chen Fan rarely stayed with Susan. He was always busy with things every day...
Thinking of this, Chen Fan was instantly filled with an emotion called self-blame. He knew that he owed so much to the girl in his arms!
In his opinion, without him, Susan would not have become the substitute of the dead girl and become engaged to him, let alone lose a lot of childhood happiness because of the so-called baby kiss, and even...even suffer from...
Mild misogyny.
"sorry."
Seeing Susan who was sleeping with a serious face on purpose, Chen Fan couldn't help but picture Susan arguing with him with a straight face. He couldn't help but lean down on his chest and kiss Susan gently on the forehead.
one time.
A gentle kiss is like a dragonfly touching water, leaving no trace.
But--
In Chen Fan's arms, Susan's delicate body trembled slightly.
Even... Chen Fan could detect a ray of emotion on Susan's sleeping face.
"Idiot, you don't need to say sorry to me. Because... I know, it's not that you don't want to accompany me, but because you are too busy - you have many things to deal with every day." Susan, who was sleeping, whispered:
"My dad also told me not to lose my temper with you because you were not at home. He said that you are a hidden dragon and cannot stay in the quagmire forever. The stage above the clouds is where you soar."
"Don't worry, idiot, just go about your business. I'll be fine at home alone. I will take care of myself. Besides... Sister Li Ying will also come to accompany me when she is free..."
Susan's soft words rang in his ears. If Chen Fan hadn't seen that Susan still had her eyes closed and was breathing evenly, he would have thought that Susan was awake.
While Chen Fan felt miraculous about all this, the guilt in Chen Fan's heart also became stronger.
After Susan spoke intermittently, there was no movement.
"Huh~"
When Chen Fan saw this, he let out a sigh of relief, took steps again, and carried Susan upstairs.
Soon, Chen Fan came to Susan's bedroom door.
Crunch!
With a soft sound, the bedroom door opened.
Standing at the door of the bedroom and looking at everything in the bedroom, Chen Fan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
There are no clothes and snacks scattered everywhere in the bedroom, and the books on the desk are not scattered everywhere, but are placed extremely neatly. Even... even the messy life in the past was folded extremely neatly, and the ones placed by the bedside are
The little bear that Susan cuddles every night when she goes to sleep.
If it weren't for the fact that the little bear's position was very different from the way it was placed when Tian Fang was cleaning the house, Chen Fan would have felt that everything in front of him was Tian Fang's work.
Has Aunt Qin been here?
Chen Fan asked himself secretly in his heart, but without thinking too much, he carried Susan to the bed and put her down gently.
"Idiot, don't go, don't leave me..."
Just when Chen Fan let go of Susan and was about to cover Susan with the summer quilt, Susan's body shook violently, she shouted in horror, and then... she sat up without saying a word, with a pair of beautiful autumn eyes.
Staring wide.
Hearing Susan's frightened scream, Chen Fan was stunned for a moment. Then he saw that Susan might be having a nightmare, so he pressed Susan's shoulders, shook her gently twice, and said: "Shanshan
, don’t be afraid, it’s me.”
Generally speaking, after a person is awakened, there will be a brief blank in consciousness and thinking will stop.
Susan was like this at this time. She seemed to have not heard Chen Fan's words, her eyes were still wide open with a dull expression on her face.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, exactly three seconds passed before Susan's eyelashes moved and her pupils shrank slightly.
"Chen Fan?!"
Under the light, Susan's pupils shrank briefly and then widened again, with shock written all over her face.
As soon as the words came out, Susan closed her eyes, shook her head slightly, and then opened her eyes again, as if she was afraid that she had seen it wrong.
It seemed that she wanted to confirm in this way whether she was hallucinating or in a dream.
"It's me, silly girl." Chen Fan smiled bitterly and nodded.
This time, Susan didn't say anything, but pinched her arm hard.
"Ouch!"
With this pinch, Susan felt a sharp pain in her arm, and she cried out in pain. At the same time, she was sure of one thing: she was not in a dream!
"Idiot, is it really you??" Under the stimulation of pain, Susan completely regained consciousness, an excited smile broke out on her face, and her tone was quite excited.
Chen Fan nodded again, gently helped Susan tidy up her hair on her forehead, and asked softly: "Did you have a nightmare? Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Susan shook her head, then remembered something, and said excitedly: "No...it's not a nightmare! Idiot, let me tell you, this is simply amazing!"
magic?!
Chen Fan didn't know why.
"Idiot, let me tell you, I just dreamed in my dream that you came back, kissed me, and said sorry to me. After that, you wanted to leave again, and I held you back and wouldn't let you go..." Su
Shan recalled the dream just now and said with a dance: "As a result, as soon as I opened my eyes, you appeared in front of me. Do you think this is magical or not?"
"magic."
Chen Fan spoke sincerely, but the self-blame in his heart was even more intense than before.
As the saying goes, there is something to think about during the day and something to think about at night.
In Chen Fan's opinion, if Susan didn't miss him, how could she have dreamed about him without telling him, and even after dreaming about him, she would still be smiling so happily in the dream?
Chen Fan knew that although Susan had never complained about her frequent travels, deep down in her heart she really hoped that he could stay at home with her.
What he doesn't know is.
Since Tian Fang moved out, Susan could not sit on Tian Fang's lap and watch TV and chat with Tian Fang like she used to. Instead, she would clean the house every day, prepare meals, put them in the microwave, and sit alone.
In the hall, I was looking forward to Chen Fan's sudden return.
Come back...have dinner with her and watch TV.
night after night,
Looking forward to it again and again,
Falling asleep on the sofa again and again.
The girl who was used as a substitute to complete the mission,
The girl whom I hated from the beginning and then fell into deep love with,
The girl who used to be heartless, stay out all night and ignore her fiancé,
The girl who even knew her man had another woman but pretended not to know and forced a smile on her face has been waiting for so many nights.
She is for him,
Wait quietly and change silently.
