It turned out to be a handsome man.

The sound of breathing is like the breeze passing through the top of the flower tree.

"Min Huixian! I asked you why you didn't answer my phone!" Jeremy frowned, and asked angrily as he lost his temper like a child.

"...what's the matter, brother?" The girl on the other end of the phone avoided answering and changed the subject.

"I asked why you didn't answer my phone!" Jeremy still clung to the previous question.

After getting no answer, he paused and asked again, "Where are you?"

"It's... outside."

Jeremy hesitated, then looked at the door in front of him.

"Huixian, I have something to tell you... Ah, the signal over there seems to be not very good... I can't hear you clearly... I'll tell you when you go to a place with better signal."

"Huh? Bad signal?"

"Well, it sounds like there's some noise on my side."

"Oh, okay, wait a minute." The girl at the other end believed it.

The door opposite Jeremy opened with a "click", and the girl who was listening to her mobile phone and wanted to go outside to find a signal appeared in his sight.

Then the two people holding the mobile phone looked at each other.

Jeremy hung up the phone with an ugly expression on his face.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what Brother Xinyu said." He gritted his teeth, "Min Huixian! You're hiding from me on purpose!"

Huixian didn't expect him to be outside the door at all, and was a little flustered besides embarrassing.

"Brother... why are you here?"

"What about you?" Jeremy asked back, "You are obviously at home, why did you lie to me that you were outside?!"

Huixian was speechless.

Jeremy walked up to her and asked sharply, "Min Huixian, tell me clearly, why are you hiding from me?!"

A bright light flashed across the sky, instantly illuminating the faces of the two of them.

When Min Huixian saw the light in the sky, she suddenly showed a look of fear, and raised her hand to cover her ears.

However, it was still a beat slower, and a loud noise came down from the air, as if it was going to blow up the whole world, it was deafening.

Huixian suddenly screamed, covered her ears desperately, closed her eyes, turned around and ran into the house.

Torrential rain poured down, accompanied by rolling thunder.

Jeremy didn't understand her sudden panic, so he quickly chased after her.

"Hui Xian!" Jeremy called her name, and walked past the kitchen and living room with ease, but there was no sign of the girl.

The door of the room was opened, and the sheets and quilts were thrown on the floor indiscriminately. The door of the closet was ajar, and there was a slight sobbing sound coming from inside.

"Huixian?" Jeremy called out tentatively.

He opened the door of the closet, and saw the girl curled up in the corner of the small space, covering her ears and trembling.

"Huixian?" Jeremy knelt down and looked at her with concern, "What's wrong?"

He stretched out his hand towards the girl, but she hid a little inside in horror, trembling uncontrollably.

"Huixian?"

"There is thunder..." Min Huixian said softly, as thin as a mosquito's moan, with deep fear, "There is thunder... There is thunder in the storm..."

"storm?"

"The storm...is thundering..." the girl spoke intermittently, tears streaming down her face, "The storm...mom and dad...are gone..."

Min Huixian looked straight at Jeremy, shedding tears, "It's gone... I'm alone... But I'm afraid... I'm very afraid... I'm most afraid of thunder..."

"Huixian..." Jeremy already understood the source of the girl's fear.

"Hongji." The girl called out his name in a crying voice.

Not "Jeremy", not "brother", but - "Hongji".

Jeremy froze.

Few people know his Korean name "Li Hongji", and the girl in front of him is one of them.

She called him Hongji.

"Hongji...I'm scared."

Her tears fell on the back of his hand, and they were still warm, flowing all the way to his heart.

Jeremy took Min Huixian's hand, pulled her out of the closet, and took her into his arms.

The girl was still trembling and crying, curled up in his arms like a helpless little beast.

Suddenly there was another loud noise outside, and thunder pierced the sky.

Hui Xian screamed in fear and covered her ears.

"Tea tea."

Jeremy hugged her tightly.

"Chacha, don't be afraid."

"I am here."

In the afternoon, I attended the promotional event of "House Girls" together with Zhong Xun and Xiche. Bai Enxi was stuck in traffic due to the heavy rain, and arrived at the TV station a little late. Afraid of being late, he hurriedly trotted to the dressing room on the third floor.

When I was still in the corridor, I heard Li Zaizhen's voice, and it seemed that I was having a good time chatting and laughing with Heechul in the dressing room.

Eun Xi couldn't help showing a smile, knowing that Li Zaizhen must be much more lively since he knew this guy.

Just as he was about to open the door and go in, he suddenly heard his name appear in the conversation between the two people in the room.

However, if you listen carefully, it is not.

It's "Ruixi", not "Eunxi".

The hand that was already on the doorknob stopped, Enxi stopped opening the door, and calmed down to listen.

"Hey...Miss Ruixi has been dead for two years, right?"

"It's three years."

"Ah, it's been three years... Seeing Brother Zhong Xun so depressed back then, I thought he would never have a new girlfriend in his life."

"Don't let Enxi hear your words. Zhong Xun said before that we should try not to mention Ruixi again."

"Sister Mizuki is a good person... I still miss the pine nut pancakes she baked~"

"Li Zaizhen, you are only thinking about eating!"

"But... don't you think they look alike? Enxi looks more and more like Sister Ruixi!"

"I've already seen it."

"Ah? Then Brother Zhong Xun couldn't be because..."

"Don't make random guesses." Xiche interrupted him, "The two of them are together now, so don't provoke discord."

"Ah, but when you think about it this way, it really looks like it! Especially when you wear a white dress! And you have long hair! The photo of Seo-hee in Brother Jong-hoon's wallet is like that!"

Bai Enxi lowered her eyes, her heart sank uncontrollably.

"Hey! Who is this girl?" She pointed to the photo of the girl in white in the middle of the wallet and asked.

Zhong Xun took the wallet and put it in his pocket.

"...It's my sister."

"younger sister?"

"Well, my sister who is no longer here."

—Sister?

——At that time you told me that it was your sister.

Enxi withdrew her hand, turned and left with no expression on her face.

He remained calm, but his heart was cold to the end.

The rain has become much lighter. Although it is still falling, the thunder has long since stopped.

The atmosphere in the small room was awkward.

Jeremy helped Huixian put away the scattered things on the ground, and the two of them were silent during the process.

Seeing her close the closet door, Jeremy finally couldn't help asking, "Why didn't I hear you say you were afraid of thunder before?"

Huixian's eyes were still red and swollen, "Well, I just didn't tell you."

A cold attitude, as if deliberately keeping a distance.

Jeremy frowned in dissatisfaction, "What's the matter with you? You haven't contacted me recently...why are you avoiding me?"

"Why do I need to contact you if I have nothing to do?" Min Huixian turned and walked to the kitchen, "Wait a minute, I'll pour tea."

"Min Huixian!" Jeremy grabbed her, "What's your attitude?! Aren't we friends?"

"It's a friend." Hui Xian looked up at him with a complicated look in her eyes, "It's just a friend, that's all."

"You..." Jeremy couldn't think of what to say, "...Did Amy tell you something?"

"Brother," Min Huixian called him, "Han Xihui is very good, and only she is worthy of you."

"What?" Jeremy's facial features were tangled together, "Who cares if she deserves me or not! Min Huixian! Don't listen to her! I won't marry her!"

Hui Xian was surprised, "Brother, she is a fiancee! How could you be like this..."

"Ahhh! Fiancee, fiancee, fiancee... I'm so annoying!" Jeremy grabbed his hair and squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, "I told you it wasn't like that!"

"But……"

Jeremy stood up abruptly, and turned up the volume in her ear, "I said she's not my fiancee—!!"

Min Huixian's ears hurt from being yelled at by him, and seeing his puffy look, she couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Brother..." She wanted to say something helplessly, but Jeremy covered her mouth.

"Stop telling me about Amy! I say no! You have to believe me!"

Hui Xian was confused by him, so she had no choice but to nod before Jeremy let her go.

"I didn't come to you to discuss whether Amy is my fiancee..." Jeremy muttered, "Actually, I wanted to ask it a long time ago, but it took me until now..."

He straightened Min Huixian's head, made her look into his eyes, and asked each word in a serious tone.

"Min Huixian, tell me the truth, do you really like Kim Ki-bum?"

Min Huixian was stunned.

The boy's eyes are as clear as jade, as if they are not stained by any speck of dust in the world, they are so clear that one can see the bottom at a glance.

Facing such eyes, she couldn't tell a lie.

He looked away subconsciously, but was forcibly straightened by Jeremy.

"Tell me! Do you really like him?"

Huixian pinched the corner of her clothes.

"Didn't my brother see it too? I promised to be Brother Kifan's girlfriend..."

"So, just like it?" The light in the boy's eyes suddenly dimmed.

Min Huixian wanted to nod, but she couldn't make that simple movement when facing the boy's eyes.

Jeremy was in a hurry, and kept asking in order to get a definite answer: "What do you mean?"
