side of couch

Chapter Thirty-Nine

When he saw Xiao Yan standing in front of him, Shaoran's head, which had been poisoned by literature for a long time, didn't think about how to deal with it at the first moment, but a few words popped out abruptly:

Especially delusional thoughts, knotting blue silk, sleeping together, spring flowers and autumn moon.

Looking back at the death of Jun Yan, the tea is astringent and the wine is light, and the words are condensed.

Perhaps it is the reaction that most people will have when they meet their old lover, lamenting the love that has passed away. Even though it has disappeared without a trace, there are still good memories, which are nostalgic.

But for Shaoran, there are far more bad memories than good ones, so it is still early to wake up.

Looking at the vaguely familiar green eyes, Shaoran really didn't want to smile at him, but he couldn't help it. Demeanor is very important in public, so he forced a smile, nodded and said to him: "Long time no see ,Are you ok?"

Xiao Yan didn't seem to expect to meet Shaoran here, so he couldn't help rushing over to say hello, and then realized his embarrassing identity, and he smiled very reluctantly: "I'm not like that... I heard that you went to Hangzhou ? Are you coming back to visit your family this time?"

The tone is still the same gentle as before, but it is different from the clear voice of a teenager. Xiao Yan, who is already an adult man, has a low voice, speaking unhurriedly, as if reciting poetry, with a gorgeous accent.

He could have fascinated everyone at this banquet, no matter men, women, young or old, but unfortunately, Shao Ran's infatuation with him was no longer as simple as before.

Having learned too much about the ugliness of human nature, the darkness of society, and the cruelty of reality, Shaoran is no longer the high-spirited, arrogant and domineering dude he used to be.

Even though he longed for the former self, even though he had dreamed countless times that the space-time machine could bring him back to the past and change everything, but he knew that it was impossible.

Those who have experience will always comfort themselves, those are the experience of survival, and those who have setbacks will always explain themselves, these are the best tests to hone themselves.

But when a dark memory that no one can bear suddenly comes, everyone will cry and struggle to go back to the past, back to the time when nothing happened, to the time when he never hated or loved anyone When it was as white as paper.

Today, the tea is astringent and the wine is weak, and the words are condensed.

Shaoran answered him in a tone that was too plain to be plain: "I'm not busy these days, so I'll come back to see my mother."

Xiao Yan is very good at observing words and expressions. Seeing that Shaoran has shown indifference, although he still has a lot to say, he suddenly doesn't know what to say, but he really misses Shaoran, and he doesn't want to just let it go.

After deliberating for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth, and said slowly in a tone that could make even the most irritable person calmly listen to him: "I took over the position of Chairman Xiao three years ago. After that, I have been looking for you , searched many, many places, and asked Aunt Geng, but there was no definite news about you, and it was only recently that I found out that you were in Hangzhou..."

Shaoran raised his head and looked at him with puzzled eyes. He didn't understand why Xiao Yan still said these things, and he didn't want to know why.

So he was silent, just waiting for the other party to finish speaking. Although the elder sister's face was livid, as if she was about to explode, Shao Ran held her by hand, signaling her not to be impulsive.

Shaoqing followed suit and remained silent, not saying anything for the time being.

However, Xiao Yan noticed Geng Shaoqing, and he looked at Shaoran with a soft and pleading look: "Shaoran, can I have a chat with you alone? Just for a while, okay?"

Shaoqing stared at him in disbelief, and was about to refuse for Shaoran, but saw Shaoran looking at him with determination in his eyes, almost fierce...

She was stunned, she had never seen Shaoran look at her like this for a long time, and knowing that she could do nothing to stop her, she reluctantly nodded and said, "I'm going to talk to my friends, you guys talk, Xiaoran, if you have anything to do, just let me know." Just call me sister, she is right next to you, okay?"

Shaoran nodded with a smile, watching her sister walk away without delay.

Xiao Yan also stared at the back of Shaoqing who left, and said with a wry smile: "The ladies in your family are so powerful and impressive."

There was something in his words, but Shaoran didn't quite understand.

He just said: "You have something to say, you can say it now."

After Shaoran finished speaking, Xiao Yan frowned slightly, with a nostalgic and sad expression on his face, he seemed to be distracted for a long time, and then gradually found the voice, and said the words that had been stuck in his heart for a long time, which made him go crazy: "Shaoran, I have always owed you an apology, until now."

"You don't actually have to..."

"I'm sorry, Shaoran, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry for you..." He seemed unable to hear what Shaoran said, and only wanted to spit it out intermittently. Tears, very sad.

"At that time... I was too young, and I always thought I could handle everything, but it was not like that at all. My father became ruthless, and I was terrified to death. His methods of torturing people were too terrifying. My mother... my mother suffered for it. Too much suffering, I can't stop worrying about her..."

"I'm still too weak. I don't have the final say on that family. All my weaknesses are laid out in front of my father. I can only let him rub my hands. In the end, I can't even tell you I'm sorry..."

Hearing this, the painful feeling before has also changed from numbness to bitterness—what can I do?A person has only one mother, but there can be many lovers.

If it were him, if someone threatened him with his mother, he would be desperate.

"I accept your apology, Xiao Yan."

Xiao Yan looked at Shaoran almost obsessively. He felt that his heart would be corroded by the surging emotions. His Shaoran, his naughty and cute, arrogant and domineering Shaoran, were still in high spirits...

She only turned her head slightly, her curly short black hair was so cute, revealing her fair neck, and there was a relieved smile on her delicate face.

He said in such a nice voice that he forgave him.

"Actually, it's been a long time, and I've forgotten it long ago. You don't need such a serious apology, but since you said it, I'm very happy. If it were me, I would do everything for my mother. It's not your fault. , so, I accept your apology."

Although he knew in his heart that it was impossible to forget everything so easily, whether it was the happy love in the past or the dark memories, he could only carefully collect them and put them in the corner of his heart to let them accumulate dust.

But such a forgiveness, he can still say it.

Since we were lovers who hugged each other and smiled, why bother to become enemies who hate and loathe each other?

What's more, letting Xiao Yan go is like letting yourself go to another extent.

The sense of relief eased him.

"You... are you really willing to forgive me?" Xiao Yan still can't believe that he was forgiven by Shaoran so easily, his face was full of ecstasy.

Seeing this young lover who has already matured, Shao Ran also felt a lot. Such a noble and elegant person was as frightened and worried in front of him as a flustered child.

"Let's let the past go. If you come to Hangzhou as a guest in the future, don't forget to tell me, I will entertain you." With a slight smile, Shaoran felt that it would be good to just be ordinary friends with Xiao Yan.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan, who was originally ecstatic, suddenly froze his expression.

Puzzled Shaoran asked him: "What's wrong?"

"Shaoran, didn't you say you'd forgive me?!" Xiao Yan seemed to go crazy suddenly, clasping Shaoran's shoulders tightly with both hands, his voice raised uncontrollably!

The excessive volume immediately made the whole banquet look over, and three seconds later, there were whispers and exclamations one after another.

Shaoqing had been observing this side all the time, and now seeing Xiao Yan grabbing Shaoran's shoulder out of control, he immediately walked over like a cat with fried hair, stepping on high heels, but was suddenly stopped by someone.

She looked up and laughed immediately.

Here, Shaoran was also stunned: "I mean I forgive you."

"Then why do you still have to go? You still want to go to Hangzhou? You don't plan to be with me? You want me to go to Hangzhou as a guest? Is it just a guest?" He anxiously spoke incoherently, asking several questions in succession, each one getting louder than the other.

People around were amazed at how the most gentle and elegant young master of the Xiao family would shout loudly on this occasion, and those who knew Shaoran immediately joined the discussion, and even those who knew the situation at the time explained it to others.

Shaoran felt that there were more and more eyes on his body, and all kinds of malicious and good intentions made him extremely uncomfortable. In such a situation, he would be so nervous that he wanted to go crazy, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He said anxiously: "Xiao Yan, don't be like this, let me go..."

"No...it can't be like this, Shaoran, I know I was wrong, I understand that everything before is because of my fault, I shouldn't be so cowardly, I shouldn't sacrifice you, but now it's different, my father died four years ago I passed away in a car accident, and now everything in the Xiao family is mine, and everything is up to me, Shao Ran, can you give me one more chance, just once, okay?! Let me compensate you, let me protect you How are you?!"

Are the two in a row okay, Shaoran asked in a daze.

good or not?

Of course it is not good.

Even though it's been a long time, Shaoran understands that as soon as he sees Xiao Yan, he will remember those pasts, no matter the good ones or the dark ones, those pasts that he has decided to abandon long ago and never think about again...

"Xiao Yan, don't you understand what I mean? Everything has passed, and it is impossible to start again..."

Xiao Yan had already fallen into a state of madness, and he held Shaoran's shoulders like he was going all out: "Yes, yes! Shaoran, as long as you give me another chance, I will prove it to you, let me prove it Let me show you!"

Shaoran was hurt by him, and was about to say something to stop him, but suddenly saw a hand stretched out from behind him.

A slender big hand, very familiar and warm.

That hand just rested lightly on Xiao Yan's shoulder, and then slowly pushed it away. The person who was holding on to his shoulder a moment ago let go of his hand, and staggered back a few steps.

Then a familiar deep male voice came to mind: "I'm afraid, you don't have that chance to prove it."

Shaoran immediately turned around and raised his head, dumbfounded and said: "Yong..."

Ning Yong put his gentle hands on Shaoran's shoulders, gently kneaded the place that was pinched just now, and said with a light smile: "Baby, you have too many suitors, it seems that I have to watch you more closely." You can do it."

Shaoran blushed immediately, and asked in a murmur, "Yong...how did you come here..."

"The company's affairs have been dealt with. I was worried that if you think about it alone, the more you think about it, the more you will feel sad, so I came here directly. Also, I have already said hello to my aunt, so don't worry." He embraced Shaoran, extremely Naturally, he walked past the dazed Xiao Yan, as if this person didn't exist at all.

Seeing that Shaoran was about to be taken away by a strange man, Xiao Yan immediately came back to his senses and said loudly: "Stop!"

Ning Yong continued to walk forward calmly, only Shaoran looked back hesitantly.

"Who are you? Shaoran, who is this person?" He stepped forward a few steps and was about to grab Shaoran's hand.

But he didn't expect that someone behind him was watching him all the time, and when he wanted to hold Shaoran back, he was quickly stopped by his eyes and hands.

Xiao Yan looked sideways and couldn't help but be shocked.

No one is allowed to bring personal bodyguards into this banquet, so obviously it was not Ning Yong's bodyguards who stopped Xiao Yan, but two luxuriously dressed people who had been at the venue just now.

A man and a woman are people Xiao Yan knows, and they are the presidents and general managers of two large companies who have had business contacts.

The man hooked his lips and smiled evilly at him, and the woman said reservedly: "Chairman Xiao, can you stay calm and stop causing trouble?"

"What are you doing?!" Xiao Yan asked angrily.

The man pursed his lips and replied disdainfully: "We are saving your life. That is not something you can offend. Can you stop acting wild here? It will hurt other people."

In this way, when Xiao Yan was released, Shao Ran had already been taken away by Ning Yong.

Shaoqing walked slowly to the side of these three people. The pink cheongsam set off her cheeks very enchantingly. She smiled slightly and said, "I advise you, stay away from Xiao Ran in the future, otherwise... Even my mother can't keep you .” Of course, the premise is that Geng Qin is willing to protect him.

The man on the side laughed: "I didn't expect that the Geng family would choose to find a backer."

Shaoqing raised his eyebrows and looked at the man with a sneer: "Backer?"

The woman over there asked with a reserved face: "Madam Du has always done her own thing, and now she plans to cooperate with others?"

Shaoqing still had that enchanting and indifferent appearance, and said casually: "It's up to you what you think, in short, Xiao Yan, there must be a limit to what idiots say about their dreams, and if you try to trick my younger brother, don't blame me for being rude."

After being patrolled by Geng Shaoqing's icy-like eyes, Xiao Yan's whole body was icy cold.

He actually knows that Shaoqing is not an ordinary person, and Geng Qin, the mistress of the Geng family, is not a light-saving lamp. He intuitively knew that his father's death must have something to do with the Geng family, but he just wanted his father's death, and he would not To care about these things, I naively thought at the time, probably because the Geng family knew that he had no choice but to take revenge on his father.

Now it seems that everything is not so simple...

He has always been very steady, he thinks before and after doing things, and speaks cautiously, but he has not seen the lover he has been thinking about for five years. The sudden meeting and the understanding of the other party made him lose his composure, over-enthusiasm, and fell into madness. If it can be handled well, everything will develop in an uncontrollable direction...

He had a hunch that a bloody storm was about to break out.

..............................................................................

Walking out of the venue, Shaoran grabbed Ning Yong's sleeve and motioned him to stop.

Ning Yong really stopped, turned sideways and lowered his head, looking at him with gentle questioning eyes.

Seeing his blushing, Shaoran stammered out what he had kept in his heart for a long time: "Yong... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have left without permission, I'm sorry..."

"Baby, can you promise me one thing?" The man suddenly faced him and said with an extremely serious expression and tone.

Affected by his attitude, Shaoran also became nervous: "What...what's the matter?" Yong...as long as I can do it, I will promise you.

"In the future, don't say sorry to me again."

"what……?"

"Baby, I don't want to hear you say sorry to me anymore. The three words I want to hear are not these."

"Yong..." Bewildered by the meaning of his words, Shaoran didn't know what to do.

"Baby, no matter how you look at it, in my heart, you have long been my other half, and everything I do for you is justified. I can tolerate your willfulness, your emotions, everything about you, and the reward I want , it's not your apology, it's something else, do you understand?"

Ning Yong leaned over slightly and hugged Shaoran into his arms.

He was moved to cry, and Shaoran wiped Ning Yong's suit with tears all over his face. He choked with sobs, but still nodded in his arms: "I understand, I understand, woo... yong... yong... ...I... love you, I love you, you bastard! Make me have to love you!"

Hearing that the baby who was more important than his life was crying out of breath, but still desperately confessing his love to him, Ning Yong smiled softly.

The author has something to say: uh. .In the past two days, I have been obsessed with a detective drama, and then I have become lazy. . . ORZ. .

Ning Yong and Xiao Ran finally met again, and it was a touching scene immediately~

After that, there is the bloody story of how the young master Ning outwitted all the juniors. . -=
