to deceive

Feel the light lighting up in your eyes.At that time, I thought, is this Hou Anchen's brother, uncle or uncle?Anyway, I never thought that you would be An Chen's father.When An Chen walked up to you, you immediately took your hands out of your pockets, led An Chen across the road, and waited for the bus at the bus stop not far from the school gate.At that time, I suddenly wanted to ask where you were going, and I could drive you there. "

When Jiang Xiaoran said this, he fell silent. Hou Shujian lowered his eyes and took out the dishes. After the dishes were fried, he turned around and put down the plate. Jiang Xiaoran suddenly said, "Even if I had the courage to know you then, Is this the answer you got now?"

Hou Shujian looked up at Jiang Xiaoran, and said calmly: "No, if your purpose is too obvious, I won't have further communication with you, so it should be a good result now."

After Hou Shujian finished speaking, he planned to clean up. Just as he picked up the pot, Jiang Xiaoran said, "I'll clean up in a while."

Hou Shujian did not refuse, "Then I will leave."

Hou Shujian was changing shoes at the door, and Jiang Xiaoran handed Hou Shujian his hat after changing his shoes, "Be careful on the road."

"Unless I fall on the ground, nothing will happen." Hou Shujian smiled and looked at Jiang Xiaoran. Ever since he said that sentence in the kitchen, the other party's face has always been filled with emotions similar to resignation with.

But Hou Shujian didn't mean to make Jiang Xiaoran quit by lying.Hou Shujian has always been very cautious, or in other words, very good at escaping from reality. Over the years, whenever he encountered relationship-related problems, he immediately responded negatively. He either disappeared or pretended not to be single when he had a relationship with someone. The opponent gave up directly.

When meeting Jiang Xiaoran, Hou Shujian didn't know that the other party had such thoughts. Even after hearing Jiang Xiaoran's confession, Hou Shujian thought that the other party had developed a good impression of him during the process of teaching An Chen.It wasn't until today when he heard Jiang Xiaoran's words that Hou Shujian realized that the other party had liked him from such an early age.At the beginning, Hou Shujian didn't notice it at all. He just thought that the two of them got along well and should be good friends.If Jiang Xiaoran had really tried to get close to him from the first day he saw him, Hou Shujian would definitely be able to sense the other party's intentions, and then try to avoid meeting him, let alone invite him to teach An Chen.

So, this is really the best result that can be achieved now.Although Hou Shujian's hope of agreeing to him is very slim, but he does have a good impression of him.

Hou Shujian walked out of Jiang Xiaoran's house, and before he took it to the door, he heard Jiang Xiaoran's voice coming from inside the door. He was muffled. It was the first time he heard Jiang Xiaoran speak so clearly with emotion, "This is not a good result."

The door behind him closed with a click, Hou Shujian paused before leaving, and then went downstairs as if nothing had happened.After walking out of the corridor, the book slips were almost melted by the sun. He put on the hat in his hand, pressed the brim of the hat, and took out the earphones to listen to the music while walking.

When Hou Shujian got home, he didn't see Hou Chisu in the living room, and he didn't see it when he looked into the kitchen.

Maybe in the guest room?Thinking about it, Hou Shujian slowly walked into the kitchen. He had just cooked a meal at Jiang Xiaoran's house, and when he got home, it was time for a second lunch.Hou Shujian felt very tired, but he took out his apron and started cooking.

Hou Shujian put the dishes on the table, and when she was walking towards the dining table with the bowl and chopsticks, she saw Hou Chisu come out of her bedroom.

Hou Shujian felt a little disgusted that he entered his bedroom without permission, but Hou Chisu was like this before he moved out. He didn't pay much attention to personal space, and he almost regarded his bedroom as a room shared by two people, so Hou Chisu Shujian put down the bowls and chopsticks while doing psychological work for herself, and she didn't show any emotion when she spoke, "Brother, let's eat."

After Hou Chisu came over, Hou Shujian found that he was holding a notebook in his hand, which was Hou Chisu's diary that Fang Meiche gave him at that time.After Hou Shujian sat down, he watched Hou Chisu sit opposite him, and put the notebook on the dining table in front of him.

The two brothers sat facing each other, and they didn't look at each other through the dishes on the table.

Hou Shujian felt that this matter would take a long time, so he simply opened his mouth and said, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk about it after we have something to eat."

Hou Chisu didn't answer, but silently picked up the chopsticks, which seemed to agree with Hou Shujian's proposal.

Hou Shujian ate slowly, but now that he was thinking about things, he ate even slower.However, no matter how slow you are, you will finish eating. Hou Shujian put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth. He crossed his fingers and said solemnly, "You can just enter my room. Why are you still moving my drawer?"

"You didn't put it in the drawer, it was on the table. I saw that the shape of this book looked familiar, so I picked it up and looked at it."

"The shape looks familiar? The [-]-format books all look the same." Hou Shujian had specially changed the cover of this book before, but Hou Chisu's reason was really untenable.

"I really shouldn't have touched your things casually. I apologize for that. But after reading it, I realized that it's not completely yours, right? I said how could I have lost the diary..."

"I can only say that I did not steal this book. As for how it got into my hands..."

"Fang Meiche, I know about it." Hou Chisu's face was calm, and he bent his lips and smiled after speaking.

Hou Shujian was stunned, "When did you know?"

"Don't be surprised, it didn't happen very early. I heard the conversation between you and Mr. Jiang that night. When I came back and thought about it, I realized that Fang Meiche stole my diary when I graduated from high school to find a showdown with you? I just said , Although I forget everything, but such things as diaries must not be lost."

Now Hou Shujian doesn't know whether to focus on Hou Chisu's hearing Jiang Xiaoran's confession, or on what he said, including how he misled him and was also heard.Hou Shujian didn't know where to ask the question, so he simply threw the question to Hou Chisu, "So?"

"A few questions, one, did you know that I like you from the day you saw the diary?"

It's best to be honest about the current situation, and Hou Shujian was unambiguous, "No, when you were in junior high school, you thought I fell asleep, but I didn't."

"Second, is it possible for you to accept me?" Hou Chisu laughed when he asked, "Forget it, I know without answering." It has been more than ten years, if Hou Shujian could accept it, he would have accepted it long ago .

Hou Shujian didn't speak, and everything he said at this time felt like he was making up for it.

"Three, do you really have a crush on Teacher Jiang?" Seeing Hou Shujian's strange expression, Hou Jisu explained, "I'm asking this question from the standpoint of my brother, not your suitor—as if I never I haven't been your suitor in an open and honest manner."

"...Can I refuse to answer?"

"Okay, I understand." Hou Chisu smiled, "I've finished asking all my questions, and what I'm going to say next... Well, you said that you have to maintain the current state because of guilt, but what I want to say is , if you are single all the time, I will never let it go, do you understand? You obviously don’t have that kind of thought, so don’t try to give me any consolation prize anymore, if you want to feel guilt-free, then don’t Have pity on me."

"I don't pity you."

"No matter how you feel, if you are kind to me, don't go on like this." Hou Chisu sighed, "If you keep chasing carrots you can't eat, that horse will die of exhaustion."

Now that this tense topic was mentioned, Hou Shujian also relaxed, "Then do you need me to get along with people as soon as possible to break your thoughts?"

Hou Chisu rolled his eyes, "I don't need you to do anything because of me, I just hope you can be single when you don't have someone you like, but you can express your feelings when you have someone you like, understand? "

"……thanks."

"I'm really thankful to you too. When I think about how you've come to communicate with me with such a strange attitude all these years, I feel like I've been flirting with someone who pretends to be blind, and my love has flowed eastward."

Hou Shujian endured it, but he still couldn't hold it back, and complained, "What the hell is your last sentence?"

sixteen

"After listening to my serious confession, why do you still have the heart to complain about me!"

"It's probably because I've talked about everything, and my heart is blank and there is no pressure." Hou Shujian nodded, "Okay, I'm going to wash the dishes." After finishing speaking, he packed up the dishes and went into the kitchen.

Hou Chisu followed him to put the leftovers in the refrigerator, and said helplessly, "I said yes, but I still can't let you go."

"Then work hard from now on." Hou Chisu faced the sink, washing the dishes neatly, "Compared with myself, I hope you can find someone you can spend your whole life with. If you want to come out , I’ll give you a good word at home.”

"Why don't we two just come out together? Instead of prolonging the battle in two strikes, it's better to say it all at once, and because you are here, my parents will definitely not say anything harsh to me."

Hou Shujian thinks about the attitude of his family members towards him, they are basically waiting for you to come out with the cabinet door open.If two people are together, although the impact is indeed greater, if the family members can accept themselves, they must not treat them differently, which is also a good thing for Hou Chisu.

"...OK, when do you want?"

"Let me think about it first, and I'll tell you later." Hou Chisu smiled helplessly, "Although I have always planned this, but...let me prepare."

"Ah."

Hou Chisu cleaned up the dining table and went back to his guest room.

Hou Shujian brushed the bowl
