The Most Beautiful Years Met You【170】Would it be nice to be with me?
Standing on the steps in front of Han's house, looking at the jeep driving out of the yard with its rear lights on, Ye Hehuan was still frightened, as if he was in a dream.
This dream was not a good one and made her feel more nervous and uneasy than ever before.
Ye Hehuan's palms already felt greasy and moist.
He didn't know how he got back to the room. Ye Hehuan was still thinking about meeting Lao Zhao, and he felt a little absent-minded.
She was even worried whether Lao Zhao would tell Major Wei about her relationship with Yu Zhongxiao on the road. Once some news started, it would spread like a virus...
The night wind blew in through the cracks of the open window, and it was a bit cold. Ye Hehuan unconsciously hugged his arms.
The sound of tidying up the living room downstairs could be heard faintly.
Such noise made Ye Hehuan feel even more confused. After a moment of hesitation, she took out her cell phone and dialed Yu Zhongxiao's cell phone number.
The call came through quickly.
"Didn't you watch TV with your roommates today?"
Hearing the familiar male voice, Ye Hehuan's nerves temporarily relaxed.
At this point in the weekdays, she would get together with the ducks and the others to watch Korean and American dramas, but Ye Hehuan never mentioned this to Yu Zhongxiao. Yu Zhongxiao would know, and he should have observed it from the details of previous phone calls.
Thinking back again, except for the first few times, Ye Hehuan discovered that Yu Zhongxiao indeed seldom came to see her during this time period.
Something in her heart suddenly became soft, and she asked instead of answering: "What about you, what are you doing?"
"I just returned to the dormitory after taking a shower." Then there was a slight sound of the door closing.
"You entered the house in such a hurry, without even closing the door, are you afraid of missing my call?" When he said this, the expression on Ye Hehuan's face was like a little fox with its tail raised.
Yu Zhongxiao smiled on the phone.
A very pleasant short laugh spread in Ye Hehuan's ears, as if it had the effect of melting the white snow in an instant.
Ye Hehuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "If you don't speak, I'll take it as your acquiescence~"
"...I had no intention of denying it."
"I'm sorry you don't dare to deny it!"
Yu Zhongxiao's low voice suddenly reached her ears: "Are you outside?" Usually there would be some noise around her when she was on the phone, but today it was surprisingly quiet.
"Well, I'm going back to grandpa's house in the afternoon."
Holding the phone in hand, Ye Hehuan paused for a moment before turning to the main topic: "By the way, my aunt seems to have a partner. Do you know about this..."
"I've heard of it, what's wrong?"
Yu Zhongxiao's tone was very casual, as casual as if she was talking about someone he had never met before, in a tone that had nothing to do with her.
Seeing him like this, Ye Hehuan felt a little bit awkward like a little girl.
She couldn't say why, but she just didn't want to answer the conversation.
It was Yu Zhongxiao who asked first: "What happened?"
"I met the political commissar of your army at Han's house." Ye Hehuan did not forget his original intention of making this call. Even though it was awkward, he told the truth.
"How did we meet?"
"While we were having dinner, he accompanied a major named Wei to deliver something."
Saying that, Ye Hehuan added coyly: "That Major Wei is my aunt's new lover."
Yu Zhongxiao said: "Old Zhao and the director of the Computer Research Institute are from the same hometown. The relationship between the two seems to be good on weekdays. It is not strange to accompany someone to Han's house."
His reaction was a little different from what Ye Hehuan expected...
Thinking that Yu Zhongxiao hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation, Ye Hehuan specifically muttered: "He must have recognized me if he saw me."
"What did he tell you?" Yu Zhongxiao was much calmer than her.
Apart from saying a few polite words to his grandfather, Lao Zhao did not communicate with Ye Hehuan at all, and did not even take a look at her.
Yu Zhongxiao suddenly changed the topic, and his voice became more magnetic through the radio waves: "Aren't you going back to school tonight?"
"..."
Ye Hehuan was still struggling with Lao Zhao's question: "Will he tell others after he returns?"
"Old Zhao is not a talkative person."
Ye Hehuan remained silent.
"Don't believe me?" Yu Zhongxiao asked her in a low voice.
Ye Hehuan didn't say she didn't believe it, but her silent reaction showed her attitude.
At this moment, Ye Hehuan realized that she really didn't understand the world of these so-called adults. Problems that seemed too big to her seemed to be trivial to them. For example, the matter between her and him, if it were now
I don’t know what the commotion will be like if I’m exposed...
Even though Lao Zhao doesn't like gossip, she cares about what others think of Yu Zhongxiao.
It would be difficult for most people to accept their union, and besides, Lao Zhao worked with him.
Ye Hehuan didn't want to become Yu Zhongxiao's burden and trouble.
Thinking again of Han Minjing’s various obstructions——
Her mood sank to the bottom, she clutched the phone in her hand, and said as if she was deeply moved: "Is being with me hard for you?"
"What are you thinking about in your little head?"
"I'm not thinking nonsense." I just don't want you to be too tired because of me...
Ye Hehuan leaned against the window, picking at the plaster on the edge of the exterior wall with her fingers. From time to time, she suddenly asked Yu Zhongxiao: "Do you regret it now?"
What she wants to ask is - do you regret being with me?
But as soon as the words came to my lips, they were automatically covered with a layer of cover.
In fact, she is also afraid of hearing bad answers.
Yu Zhongxiao remained silent on the other end of the phone, and Ye Hehuan did not rush him. He waited patiently. About half a minute later, he heard his sincere voice: "You don't need to think that I will have a hard time because of this. When we decide to be together,
, any consequences are within my expectation. What you should do now is to finish college well and live happily every day like a carefree girl. As for other things, don’t think too much about it, and don’t think about it deliberately.
If you encounter a problem that you can't solve by yourself, just tell me and let me handle it."
These words seemed to have been considered by Yu Zhongxiao countless times.
His brief silence just now was not hesitation, he was just thinking about what words to use to stop her from being hesitant and confused.
Late at night, Ye Hehuan was lying on the bed, and what Yu Zhongxiao said on the phone was still replaying in his mind.
Even though the origin of this relationship was somewhat absurd, and she had some impure or even ridiculous intentions, today, those have become unimportant. Putting aside all kinds of worries, she has long lost sight of this deeply entangled relationship in her heart.
Methods are easily discarded.
Maybe this is the power of love.
Let those who are trapped in it become fearless...
——
The next morning, Ye Hehuan saw that no one else in the Han family was acting strange, and his heart dropped quietly.
At the dinner table, Han Minjing suddenly expressed her thoughts: "Dad, when things here settle down, I plan to take He Huan to Singapore with me."
Everyone at the table looked at her in surprise, including Ye Hehuan who was sitting opposite.
"Singapore is not too far away. It's easy to get back and forth for business. A college classmate of mine has been living there for more than ten years. I don't have to worry about not being taken care of when the time comes—"
Ye Hehuan interrupted Han Minjing: "I still want to go to school here."
Han Minjing turned her head following the sound, her eyes falling on Ye Hehuan's slightly anxious face, and she became more determined in her plan. She said lightly: "There are many universities in Singapore that are better than University B. With your grades, go to school there.
Don’t worry about not being able to keep up with the course.”
Han Minjing is serious about cutting off her escape route!
Ye Hehuan felt angry in his heart, threw down his chopsticks, stood up suddenly, and said in a cold voice: "If you want to go, go by yourself, don't drag me in!"
After speaking, she pushed away her chair, picked up her schoolbag and left the Han family regardless of her grandfather's presence.
As soon as Ye Hehuan walked to the gate of the compound, the orderly drove over and chased him: "The old chief asked me to take you back to school."
It was rush hour. When he caught a glimpse of the overcrowded bus on the roadside, Ye Hehuan pursed his lips and finally wisely opened the back seat door of the car.
When the orderly started the car, he said: "The old chief asked me to give you a message. You have the final say whether to go to Singapore or not. No one can force you."
Ye Hehuan's heart warmed up, and then he remembered his face-shaking at that time, and was a little worried about the old man: "My grandpa...is he okay?"
The orderly said it was okay, but the old chief was worried about her situation. After all, mother and daughter had always been at odds.
"I just don't want to change my environment all the time." After saying that, Ye Hehuan turned his head and looked out the car window, looking a little lonely.
The orderly looked at her in the rearview mirror and said nothing.
But Ye Hehuan believed that he would convey the original words to Han Yongsong.
She was not a fool. She could not just watch Han Minjing block her way, so she had to dig a hole for herself to escape.
——
Ye Hehuan only had two classes in the morning, but she was wary of what Han Minjing said and didn't dare to run to Qinghe Garden easily. She didn't even go to the building materials market, for fear that she might accidentally reveal something and let Han Minjing notice something.
All afternoon, Ye and Huan huddled in the dormitory watching movies, occasionally glancing over to the balcony to see if there was anyone suspicious downstairs.
Everyone else in the dormitory was made nervous by her.
In the evening, she took the bus to the compound by herself without Han Minjing urging her.
