"This..." There was a trace of embarrassment on the white-haired man's face. He had become less able to guess people's hearts than before seven years ago, and he didn't know how to answer the girl's question for a while.

"Then... So, you are Xiao Xi's... elder sister?"

"No~ it's mother~"

"..."

The girl answered like this, and in an instant, the white-haired man who couldn't judge her identity was completely speechless...

In other words, are simple and honest people really not very good at guessing women's hearts?No wonder there are more and more people taking orders these days...

"Then... can I ask you a question?" After being speechless for a long time, the silent man started the topic again.

"Excuse me, Xiao Xi's father..."

"A very good person~" Before the white-haired man finished asking, Chen Zixi's mother interrupted the white-haired man's words and gave such a quick answer.

The white-haired man who claimed to be an idler fell into embarrassment again.

"I...I didn't ask this question...I mean...Is Xiao Xi's father also a very busy person? The daughter is obviously so cute, but she has to be taken care of by an idler like me. "

When the white-haired man scratched his head and asked this question to Chen Zixi's mother with embarrassment, the other party couldn't help but turned his pretty face that was so pretty that it was not like a woman's, and used the same face as Chen Zixi's. The beautiful wine red eyes took a deep look at him.

"At the end of the day, didn't you ask Xiao Xi who her father was and what his name was?"

"This involves privacy. It's better not to inquire about it as an outsider." The shy man scratching his head replied.

But the girl who was Chen Zixi's mother couldn't help but suddenly darkened when she heard his answer...

"Outsider~ heh..."

"Uh...did I say something wrong?"

The white-haired man caught the dimness in the other party's expression with an apologetic look on his face, and his behavior became a little flustered, as if he was afraid that his words would touch this young man who had become Mingming at a young age. A mother becomes overwhelmed by a pain in her heart.

But in the face of his apology written directly on his face, the girl who occasionally revealed a trace of sadness didn't blame him at all, and of course, she didn't express any intention of accepting his apology.

"Tell me about you? As Zhou Yaxue's friend, I would like to know what kind of existence her idle boss is~ I heard that you had an unforgettable love a few years ago?" A girl who is a mother He cleverly changed the subject, but the white-haired man who felt that his words seemed to have touched the pain in the girl's heart still did not recover from his previous embarrassment.

"That...everyone else said that, but I... don't quite remember..."

"Is it because of amnesia?" the girl asked.

"Yes." The white-haired man answered the girl's question very smoothly, so smoothly that the girl's expression, which was already extremely bleak, became even darker.

"Is she gone?"

"yes..."

"Then have you ever thought about what you would look like now if she had stayed back then?"

"this..."

After thinking for a moment, the man shook his head again...

"I don't know, maybe...you won't lose your memory, and...you should be more diligent than now..."

"Really..."

The girl was silent, her eyes revealed a kind of deep disappointment, and in the disappointment, there was also a bit of self-blame that she seemed to be able to hide.

And what about the white-haired man?Following her silence, she returned to her morning appearance, raised her head slightly and stared at the orange-red sky that was about to set in the west, and became dazed.

a long time...

"I have to go now..."

"...Aren't you going to sit for a while?" Hearing that the girl holding Chen Zixi in her arms said that she was going to leave, the white-haired man, who seemed a little slow to react because of the dazed action of staring at the sky, turned back from the daze God came.

As for the white-haired man's persuasion, her eyes had already started to avoid him, and the girl who said she was going to leave but still didn't stand up from his side just shook her head slightly.

"Tomorrow is Monday, Xiao Xi still has to go to school."

"Is that so, then..."

Speaking of this, the white-haired man's words suddenly got stuck inexplicably. It was obviously just a farewell, but for some reason, such a simple farewell got stuck in his throat at this moment, causing him to be speechless for a while. Unable to speak.

"Then what?" the girl asked strangely.

"Then...then...then I...I won't give it away..."

"Hmm..." The girl nodded, and when her gaze was so dim that it seemed that she couldn't see a glimmer of light, she was about to leave with Chen Zixi, who existed as a daughter in her arms.

However, just as she was about to get up, the white-haired man's seemingly unchanging movement of looking up at the sky caught by the corner of her eyes made her unable to help delaying the time for her to get up from the ground and leave.

"Finally... can I ask you one more question?"

"...Excuse me."

"I heard from Zhou Yaxue that you come to this rooftop every day, and then just sit here in a daze all day? Seven years in a row..." At this point, the girl who was the questioner involuntarily paused for a moment.

"Can you tell me why you're doing this?"

"This..." The man's face was filled with embarrassment. He looked at the girl holding the child in his arms with twisted eyebrows, and then continued to turn his head to look at the sky above where the sun was about to set.

It took me a long time to hold back such a confusing answer.

"Maybe... are you waiting?"
