These two sounds caused the two people to turn their heads at the same time, and when they saw the candy, they both laughed in unison.
Huo Qiran reopened the car door, leaned in and took out Candy.
Jing Li reached out and touched Tangtang's head, and Tangtang immediately stuck out his tongue and licked her hand.
Jing Li couldn't help but laugh out loud again, and reached out to hug the candy, "Will you bring it to see me?"
"Yeah." Huo Qiran responded and said, "It hasn't been in a high mood these past two days. I thought maybe it missed you, so I might as well bring it here..."
"Then just tell me so you don't have to wait here."
Jing Li said this, and as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and raised her eyes to look at Huo Qiran again.
Huo Qiran still just smiled.
She suddenly didn't know what to say.
During this week, she deliberately avoided him and alienated him.
Even if Huo Qiran told her that he would bring candy to see her, what would happen?
She lowered her head and hugged the candy, and suddenly fell silent.
Huo Qiran looked at her quietly for a moment, and finally asked: "Is that Xi Xi's mother just now?"
After a while, I finally heard Jing Li respond: "Yeah."
"She wants to take Xi Xi away?"
"Um."
"and you--"
Huo Qiran was unable to continue asking.
Because he clearly saw something slipping from Jing Li's eyes and falling on Candy, and then she quickly wiped it away.
Huo Qiran was silent, his breathing almost stagnant.
After a moment, he suddenly reached out his hand and hugged Jing Li gently.
Jing Li was stunned for a moment, and when she realized what she was doing, she was already leaning on his shoulder.
Huo Qiran said: "It doesn't matter. If you want to say something, just say it. If you don't want to say something, you don't have to say anything."
She leaned against him quietly, smelling the clear and calm breath on his body, and finally couldn't help but close her eyes and shed tears again.
She cried so softly that her voice was almost inaudible, but Huo Qiran gave her enough time.
From the beginning to the end, he stood still, letting her lean against him and quietly soak the clothes on his shoulders.
…
Before this, Jing Li had never thought that she would talk to others about what happened at home.
After all, if you tell some things, you may just expose your bloody scars for others to see, which will only cause discomfort to the people listening.
Why bother with something that makes everyone unhappy?
What's more, this person is Huo Qiran.
She never thought that she would meet again with Huo Qiran, the boy she had been in love with since she was a girl, the proud man who had been outstanding and looked up to since high school.
She had always known that he was outstanding, but she had never thought that he would be the son of the Huo family.
In the past, she could have felt that she and Huo Qiran were the kind of people who could walk side by side; but now...
But she still had an illusion for a time.
Because he was so nice, all his patience, carefulness, and proper intentions gave her the illusion that she and he might still have a chance to become "good friends."
But the trip to Huo's house finally made her wake up.
This boy's gentleness is something she can look up to, but excellence is something she can't reach.
There is an unbridgeable gap between them.
So she chose to avoid and distance herself.
She thought that they might just drift apart like this, but he appeared again, still at a moment like this...
"Two years ago, my brother passed away due to an accident. At that time, Xi Xi was just born, less than two months old, and my sister-in-law abandoned her and chose to leave..."
