Falling in Love with a Sick Girlfriend Twenty Years Younger Than Me

"Rena?"

"It's okay! It's completely okay! Don't worry, senior! I'm really sorry for what I said just now!"

"..."

"After listening to senior's words, I thought about it seriously. In other words...the senior who just broke up with his ex-girlfriend is not ready to date someone, right?"

"Eh? Ah...well, um."

Rena wiped away the tears on her face, looked at me with the usual silly smile, and said confidently.

"So! In other words, it's just that the timing of his confession is not right. If you wait for a while, senior won't reject him, right?"

"Eh!? Did you listen to me!? I clearly—"

"Ah! It's already so late! Everyone is still waiting for us in the private room! Senior, let's go back quickly!!"

"Rena!? Finish talking before going back!? I'm so scared of you!"

"Huh? What?"

Linnai turned her head and looked at me with a smile, and said softly: "Senior, I just accompanied him in the corridor to get some air, that's all, right? Did we talk about anything?"

"..."

"If you don't speak, it's the default? Go back to eat, eat~~~"

"..."

Listening to Rena's seemingly energetic words, my chest suddenly throbbed again.

Even though she was rejected by me just now, she still looks like she doesn't care... What is this girl thinking?

Isn't she the one who suffers the most?

How can I be a good person to make her suffer so much...

Chapter 14

After that, an indescribable subtle change took place in the relationship between me and Reina.

Although she is still often dragged to eat together, she often comes to chat with me when I am free from work.But in the envious and jealous eyes of my colleagues, I really couldn't be happy.

Because, the smile on Reina's face became less.

Well, it may be difficult to understand... To be precise, the flawless smile that makes people happy just by looking at it has been significantly reduced.

When we ate and chatted with her before, the smile on the corner of her mouth, the sudden embrace without warning, and the slight sense of dependence on me that was revealed invisibly, all seemed to disappear overnight and became stable. a lot.

While feeling a little relieved in my heart, what I feel more is my apology to her.Although she obviously wanted to ignore my words that night, but now it seems that she obviously failed to do so.

Even I, after saying those words, now think about it and regret it.

Obviously there is a better way to reject her.But I chose the most hurtful and cut off her way out...

I am so impersonal, can I really find someone who will accompany me for a lifetime......

And today is the day when Meiling returns to China.

Still a little confused, I was sitting on a seat in the airport, pulling the special product box I brought to Meiling.

Maybe because she sensed that I was not in a good mood, Meiling drove Dr. Ji aside, moved to my side, and held my hand.

"Brother, what's the matter? Are you in a bad mood?"

"Well... a little bit on my mind."

"Ah? Brother, don't you really want me to go back to China? Why are you in a bad mood now that I'm going back?"

"No, no, thanks to you going back to your country, I feel a little better?"

"...Brother! They care about you!"

"Ahaha, sorry sorry."

I stretched out my hand to hold Mei Ling who was baring her teeth and claws, and I smiled heartlessly.As a result, Meiling turned away angrily, as if she didn't want to talk to me.

It seems that playing a little too much?

I sighed, shook my head, rubbed Meiling's head vigorously, and thanked her earnestly in front of her angry expression.

"Thank you, Meiling."

"Don't rub my hair!!—Huh?"

Meiling's angry expression suddenly collapsed, and she said cautiously.

"Are you not sad anymore? Brother?"

"How did it get better so quickly, idiot."

Shaking my head with a wry smile, I withdrew my right hand and started talking to myself amidst Meiling's somewhat regretful [Ah...] voice.

"In order that you won't worry when you return to your country, let me tell you a little bit."

"A few days ago, my colleagues and I completed a project that was very important to the company, and we were praised. I was happy, and as their class leader, I went to have dinner with them."

Meiling opened her mouth in surprise, and suddenly realized: "Is it the night you said you were staying outside? I thought you were working overtime!"
