Chapter 831: If you want to leave, I will send you off
After a brief silence, Xu Wan's cell phone rang.
She quickly seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and walked to the balcony to answer the phone: "Hello?"
The assistant said: "Sister Xu Wan, I received an invitation to a private reception next Saturday. Should I just decline it like before?"
Xu Wan coughed: "First... no need, please tell me the specific process."
On the other end of the phone, the assistant was a little confused: "The specific process?"
"right."
Xu Wan looked serious and took his work seriously, "How do they arrange it? When will the event start? Please tell me in detail."
"At once……"
The assistant followed the invitation message sent over there and read it word by word.
Xu Wan listened and nodded in agreement.
Then we chatted about other work.
When she couldn't find anything to say, she secretly turned her head and saw that Ruan Chen was no longer on the sofa and the bedroom door was closed, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The assistant said: "Sister Xu Wan, let me reply to them. Do you want to participate?"
Xu Wan retracted his thoughts: "No need, just push it."
assistant:"……"
Assistant: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Wan sat on the sofa, his eyes falling on the books in front of him.
"The Spirit of Law", "Das Kapital", "The Wealth of Nations", "Advanced Calculus"...
No wonder Ruan Chen said she didn't want to read a book. She just read the title and her head started to feel dizzy.
Beside, the cold medicine has been taken.
Xu Wan leaned back, found a comfortable position to sit in, took out his phone and scrolled boredly.
The sound of rain outside kept washing against the windows, slender and dense.
It has a hypnotic effect.
After a while, she started to take a nap.
Xu Wanqiang held on to his sleepiness and set the alarm for thirty minutes later, preparing to take a nap.
She had just fallen asleep for a few minutes when Ruan Chen came out of the bedroom. After standing there for two seconds, he went back to the room to get a thin quilt and came over to cover her.
Ruan Chen bent one leg, squatted in front of her, and just looked at her quietly.
Time passed by, and the whole room was quiet. Apart from the sound of breathing, there was only the dull and noisy sound of rain.
Half an hour later, the phone next to me vibrated slightly.
Xu Wan fumbled to turn off the alarm clock, and when he opened his eyes and was about to get up, he saw Ruan Chen sitting on the carpet under the sofa, holding the "Das Kapital" in his hand.
She rubbed her eyes: "When did you come out? Don't you want to sleep?"
Ruan Chen closed the book and turned his head to look at her: "Can't sleep."
Xu Wan sat up and wanted to see if his fever had subsided at all, so he stretched out his hand and placed it directly on his forehead.
It seems to be hotter.
It must be because it rained at noon.
Xu Wan lifted up the quilt on his body: "If this doesn't work, I'd better take you to the hospital. Don't make things worse."
Ruan Chen held her wrist: "Just take two more medicines."
"But you..."
"If you are worried, you can stay here with me."
Xu Wan: "..."
So he is waiting here.
Ruan Chen let go of her and continued reading: "The rain won't stop for a while. If you want to leave, I will see you off."
Xu Wan said "Oh", was this little brat threatening her?
If he goes out in the wind and rain again like this, the cold will only become more serious.
But just stay like this...
I always feel something is strange.
Probably sensing her discomfort, Ruan Chen flipped through the book and said calmly: "I won't do anything to you. I don't want to infect you with the cold."
Maybe it was because he just woke up, Xu Wan was still a little confused, so he said casually: "That's right, otherwise you would have stuck out your tongue just now."
Ruan Chen: "..."
When he looked over, Xu Wan immediately grabbed a book and opened it to cover his face.
Is she crazy? What is this all about?
When the sound of turning books was heard again, Xu Wan let out a breath and finally focused his eyes on the book in front of him.
What is this string of numbers?
She quietly moved the book away from her face.
"Advanced Calculus".
Xu Wan: "..."
never mind.
She took a pillow and sat there, her eyes looking towards Ruan Chen from time to time, but she hesitated several times.
In fact, she really has no experience in dealing with this kind of thing, and seeing Ruan Chen's state today, it goes without saying that she knows what level this matter is in his mind.
Maybe as soon as she opened her mouth, she stepped on his bottom line.
So she is still considering it.
How to use the most tactful, casual, and natural words to expand on this topic.
But she didn't expect it.
Just when Xu Wan had given up and started to empty his mind, Ruan Chen's voice came: "You have looked at me twenty-five times. If it wasn't because you wanted to kiss me, then you should want to say something to me.
"
Xu Wan slowly looked at him and met the boy's dark and quiet eyes.
She pursed her lips and started talking seriously: "I went to the studio yesterday and met your sister."
Ruan Chen hummed and motioned for her to continue.
Xu Wandao: "I chatted with her, and she also... told me some things."
Ruan Chen's expression didn't change at all, he just looked at her.
Although he didn't say anything, Xu Wan felt his heart beat faster and his whole body became more nervous when he looked at his calm eyes. The hands on the pillow were clenched unconsciously, not knowing what to say.
what.
After a long while, Ruan Chen said: "I remember you told me that no matter what Ruan Jun did, it has nothing to do with me.
He is him and I am me."
Xu Wan was stunned and nodded: "Yes..."
Ruan Chen said: "For me, this sentence is enough."
After speaking, he withdrew his gaze and continued reading.
Xu Wan was stunned, she understood what he meant.
only……
Xu Wan stared at his side face and spoke slowly: "If that's the case, why have you been shut up at home alone these past few days, without eating or drinking, and not caring if you are sick?"
Ruan Chen paused while turning the book, lowered his head and said nothing.
Xu Wan continued: "I actually quite understand your thoughts. That person is like a stranger to you, and in the past ten or twenty years, your hatred for Ruan Jun has been accumulated in your heart. This kind of
Hate keeps torturing you."
"Especially what he did to your sister, you also shouldered the guilt and pain.
Even after he died, he never dissipated a little bit, so now that you know the truth, you can't accept this huge contrast for a while."
Ruan Chen's lips were straight and his eyes were dark.
Xu Wan sat next to him and said in a softer voice: "You don't have to hate anyone, and you don't have to torture yourself anymore, whether your father is Ruan Jun or that person who is completely strange to you.
None of them are important, you are just yourself, no one’s accessory.”
