Xi Wanlai lit the lighter in the dark corridor. There was a crackle, and Pei Xiao's eyes blinked as he watched him light a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
She rarely saw him smoking.
When he doesn't speak, he has a cold demeanor, a bit like Xi Xiangdong. After all, they are brothers.
Pei Xiao didn't know why, but she felt something was wrong since she saw him in the morning. Today she seemed to see another Xi Wanlai, a Xi Wanlai she had never known before.
He dusted off his cigarette and said with a melancholy tone in his voice: "She is my girlfriend."
Pei Xiao was shocked.
When she saw the photo, she thought the girl in the photo was Xi Xiangdong's first girlfriend, otherwise why would he hide her photo? But the reality is...
She felt confused again.
"Then how did you separate?"
This question may go too far. It is not a good thing to explore other people's past.
As they walked out of the corridor, a biting cold wind blew into their collars, and the snow became heavier and heavier. Countless snowflakes flew down, like a gust of rain, wiping their cheeks and melting them with ice.
Xi Wanlai's phone rang again. The dealer informed him that the car had been repaired and asked him to pick it up.
He turned around and said to Pei Xiao: "If you are okay later, I will take you to a place and we will talk while walking."
They first went to the dealership to pick up the car. Because it was snowing, it got dark very early. When they came out, the street lights were on one by one, and they were streaking into the distance like shooting stars.
Xi Wanlai drove the car himself, and Pei Xiao sat next to him.
When he encountered a red light, he stopped and began to tell his story: "I used to be like this, driving her all over the streets and alleys of the city, leaving our footprints. Wherever she wanted to go, I would say, I have a car.
, I'll take you." He smiled and then said: "Bicycle."
"I lied to her and said that I had a house and a car, and that I would only be good to her in my life. As long as I married, I would be the happiest bride in the world. I asked her, would you marry me? She said, I do.
His eyes kept looking forward, shining with warmth, "She is so stupid. She will believe everything I say. She will only be angry if I lie to her. After she is angry, she will foolishly believe what I say. Only once...
"
He suddenly choked up, and Pei Xiao turned to look at him in surprise.
He continued stubbornly: "On that one time, it was her turn to ask me... She asked me, did I believe her? I actually said I didn't know... Then she left without leaving a word. I clearly knew
I knew she was being framed, but instead of holding her back, I pushed her. It was me who hurt her...it was me..."
He spoke incoherently, almost unable to speak because he was so sad.
Pei Xiao silently took out a tissue from the tissue box in the back seat and handed it to him. He took it and didn't wipe it. He just said, "I'm not good enough for her..."
They had so many happy memories together. It was so beautiful that he could hardly remember that he had ever laughed so happily. With her, everything happened, every day.
She had loved him so much, she had believed in him so much.
It was he who ruined everything with his own hands.
In fact, he should have forgotten those things that happened in the past.
He tried hard to find her everywhere, maybe he just wanted to atone for his sins, but in fact, he had no shame in seeing her again...
He drove the car to the entrance of a university. University F was a prestigious university in the imperial capital, and Pei Xiao recognized it.
He didn't speak again after getting out of the car. Pei Xiao kept walking behind him. The wind picked up even harder and ruffled her long hair. She felt cold, but she didn't make a sound.
