"Make people wait so long!" Zhong Nihong didn't notice Pan Linxi's red eyes in the darkness.

Pan Linxi looked outside the door, and was relieved only after confirming that Zhong Nihong was the only one.

She lied perfunctorily, "I was upstairs just now."

Because she had something on her mind, she didn't notice that Zhong Nihong was carrying a bag in his hand.

"Why did you come here suddenly?" She asked, letting Zhong Nihong come in sideways.

"I want to see you." Zhong Nihong stepped into the door briskly.

She spoke so naturally, as if it was a matter of course in their current relationship that she wanted to see her.

Pan Linxi is now very used to Zhong Nihong's natural intimacy.

After learning that she had never been in a relationship, she gradually stopped rejecting her ambiguity, and even let herself feel happy because of her arrival.

Pan Linxi closed the door, turned around, and saw Zhong Nihong raised the bag in his hand, "Look!"

Before Pan Linxi could get away from the thoughts aroused by "I want to see you", he was suddenly pleasantly surprised by the clownfish in Zhong Nihong's hand.

"On the way home from the hospital, I happened to pass by a fish shop, so I bought it." Zhong Nihong smiled triumphantly, "I chose the most beautiful one! It took me a long time."

In the light and shadow of the dimly lit floor lamp, her appearance was so bright, as if she had a bright glow of her own.

Sometimes, Pan Linxi couldn't help feeling that Zhong Nihong was a ray of sunshine shining into her bleak world.

"Didn't you say you want to go shopping together?"

Pan Linxi had tried her best to hide it, but her voice still couldn't hide the fact that she had just cried.

"Pan, what happened?" Zhong Nihong lowered his hand and approached her.

Pan Linxi was forced to back away, "It's just an insignificant matter, nothing."

Crying over something that happened so long ago, she finally realized at this moment how humiliating it was.

"Irrelevant?—"

"There are mosquitos here, let's go inside." Pan Linxi didn't want to say anything, and walked forward.

Zhong Nihong grabbed her with his empty hand, "You can't escape!"

"You—" Even though she knew Zhong Nihong was domineering at times, Pan Linxi was still taken aback by her tough tone.

Can't escape?The darkness covered most of the panic on her face.

"Go into the room and talk." Pan Linxi immediately calmed down, she didn't know why she softened up so much.

The sadness that had obviously been suppressed, because of Zhong Nihong's arrival, now she has tears again.

She has never been a person who likes to show weakness, but it seems that Zhong Nihong gave her a sense of security and trust that she does not need to deliberately hide herself in front of me.

After entering the house, Pan Linxi saw Zhong Nihong walking towards the fish tank, ready to pour the fish into it.

"No!" She hastily stopped her, "The fish can't get used to it by pouring it in directly. Before putting it in, it needs to go through the water a few times to let it get used to it slowly."

"Is that so?" Zhong Nihong really didn't know how to raise fish, so she handed the bag containing the newly bought clownfish to Pan Linxi.

Pan Linxi found a water basin, then took some water from the fish tank and poured it into the water basin, and soaked the newly bought fish through a plastic bag.

"Why not just let it out?"

"The water temperature and water quality are different. Don't rush through the water. You have to take your time." Pan Linxi was also very impatient at first, but after taking care of the fish for more than a year, she is now very skilled and patient. , fish are not easily injured. Sea fish are very delicate when they leave the sea.”

"That's it." Zhong Nihong squatted down, stretched out his slender fingers, and poked lightly on the floating plastic bag, "Pan, I'll leave it to you."

"Well. Let it soak for a while first."

The two walked into the kitchen together, washed their hands, and then returned to the living room.

"How is your second brother, is it important?"

Pan Linxi didn't want to be so close at first, but remembering that Zhong Nihong said that she and her second brother had a good relationship, she asked nonchalantly.

"Severe diarrhea, but it's stopped now." Zhong Nihong thought of her second brother's embarrassment today, amused and distressed, "It will be fine after two or three days of injections, it's nothing."

"You don't need to accompany him?"

"I wanted to accompany him, but as soon as sister Xia came, he immediately drove me away when he got the chance. In front of sister Xia, my sister is nothing!"

"You're jealous!" Looking at her sour expression, Pan Linxi wanted to laugh.

"Who eats it, and make it clear?"

"How do I know whose food you eat?"

Zhong Nihong gently pushed Pan Lin, "Do you know that the consequences of teasing me like this are very serious!"

"is it?"

Talking about these insignificant things, Pan Linxi felt a lot more relaxed unconsciously.

"Pan, hurry up and talk about your business." Zhong Nihong suppressed the smile on her face, and she remembered what Pan Linxi experienced in the last semester of her senior year. "Is it your father's—"

"It's not him." Pan Linxi hurriedly interrupted.

Thinking that Bai Qiangwei should have told Zhong Nihong about their high school years, she was a little hard to tell, and she was not sure who she would believe when she said it.

"Seeing that your eyes are red and your voice has changed from crying, it really makes me feel distressed!"

Zhong Nihong's voice was delicate and soft, which made people unconsciously let their guard down.

"Zhong Nihong, when you first entered college, did you pretend not to know me because of your cousin?"

Pan Linxi knew that it was meaningless to confirm something that happened a long time ago, but this was the best entry point she could think of to explain why she just cried.

"Your words—" Zhong Nihong's face was full of question marks, "meaning that we knew each other before we went to college?"

"Didn't we meet your cousin once before we went to college? On her seventeenth birthday—"

"Which cousin, why do I have no memory at all? Pan, in your eyes, am I the kind of person who pretends not to know me when I know you? Besides, if I met you before college, I would never forget !"

Zhong Nihong spoke with certainty.

It turned out that I forgot, not pretending not to know!

At that time, Pan Linxi still felt that she was as arrogant as Bai Qiangwei and difficult to get close to. In addition, she thought that she might be blacked out, so for a long time, she deliberately kept a distance from Zhong Nihong.

"White Rose."

"she?!"

Pan Linxi nodded, "Didn't she introduce each other to us that year?"

"Ah! I don't remember this incident at all, it shouldn't be! It's strange, I really shouldn't, I think I will forget everything, but it is impossible to forget you. Maybe there were too many people at that time, you know Bai Qiangwei I used to be very high-profile, and every birthday party was extravagant, just because I was afraid that people would not know that her mother is a high-ranking official——I rarely go to her birthday, and even if I do, I just show my face and leave, I am not with her."

"Oh." Pan Linxi nodded thoughtfully, "She introduced you to me that day, and I thought you two would get along very well."

"So, the time of our acquaintance has to be pushed forward by two years?"

"Since you've forgotten all about it, let's just meet each other when we were in college."

"Pan, if you haven't forgotten, it means I haven't forgotten!" Zhong Nihong smiled slyly, "So she made you cry? You and Bai Qiangwei don't seem to be the same people. Why, is there something between you?" A dark secret?"

She knew her cousin liked women too.

Pan Linxi really didn't like Bai Qiangwei's style at first, but she was really kind to her, so the two gradually approached.

It's just that at that time she didn't know that there was a purpose behind that kind of goodness.

Later, Bai Qiangwei's confession was rejected, and Pan Linxi could understand the pain of not getting a response, but she couldn't forgive her style of destroying if she didn't get it.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Pan Linxi smiled wryly. "In high school, I refused her confession. As a result, things became ugly and our friendship came to an end."

Zhong Nihong gave a meaningful ooh, and then said, "Did she make a scene and turn the world upside down?"

"Well, if it's just like this, I can bear it, but she turned black and white, told her classmates that I was obsessed with her, and said that homosexuality is disgusting—"

"It's her style! She has been annoying since she was a child, and she can't get what she wants. She either makes a lot of noise or destroys everything. Pan, my cousin treats people either very sweet or bitter, very extreme. Online said The deep-closet homophobia should be her kind."

Pan Linxi was deeply convinced.

However, when he was fifteen or sixteen years old, his ability to distinguish was not so strong, and he couldn't easily see through people's hearts.

Besides, Bai Qiangwei was very kind to everyone at that time, she had that kind of ability and financial resources.

That's why she passively accepted her friendship, but she didn't expect it to turn out like that in the end.

"Don't talk about her."

"Pan, you haven't finished talking yet, did she come to see you tonight?"

Pan Linxi didn't deny it, "She came over and said something inexplicably. I can't help but think of the days when I was misunderstood and laughed at by everyone, and I feel a little sad——"

"Hold me." Zhong Nihong suddenly opened his arms.

Pan Linxi hesitated and did not move.

Zhong Nihong moved forward and took her into his arms.

The other party's breath and body heat surrounded her involuntarily, Pan Linxi struggled, but Zhong Nihong hugged her even tighter, "Don't move, I'll heal you."

Her words were pompous and dramatic.

Pan Linxi felt very useful and wanted to cry.She didn't struggle anymore, hesitantly put her chin on her shoulder.

"Pan, Bai Qiangwei owes you an apology."

"She apologized tonight, but what's the use!"

An apology cannot heal the wound, and some people may feel relieved because of the apology, but to Pan Linxi, Bai Qiangwei's apology is nothing more than tearing her wound open again.

"Since she said it to everyone, let her clarify to everyone and make a public apology. That's the real apology."

"This--"

"Don't be afraid, her mother has been dismissed because of her unhealthy style."

This incident caused quite a stir a few years ago, and Pan Linxi also knew it, "I didn't mean that, but, since the incident has passed for so long, there is no need to—"

"People are responsible for what they do."

"talk later."

Pan Linxi gently pushed Zhong Nihong away, "It's time for the fish to change the water."

After the first pass, Pan Linxi released the clownfish from the plastic bag.

After a few minutes, she went through the water again and saw that the clownfish was fine, and finally fished it out with a fishing bag and put it into the fish tank.

The inner one quickly found a new mate, and it happily swam to it, and the two little ones were swimming up and down the beautiful coral.

"It looks much better now." Pan Linxi smiled at Zhong Nihong.

"Yeah, they seem to like each other very much, and my decision is right."

"Zhong Nihong, thank you."

"Thank me for what?"

"everything."

"If you want to thank me, just make me something to eat. I'm a little hungry after taking care of my second brother, that picky ghost running around in the hospital."

"I haven't eaten yet." Only then did Pan Linxi remember that what happened tonight made her forget about dinner.

While she was preparing dinner, Zhong Nihong said casually, "Pan, I don't want to go home tonight."

"Okay, do you want to sleep in my room tonight?" Pan Linxi thought it was good for her to stay.

"Yes." Zhong Nihong looked into Pan Linxi's eyes, "Let's sleep together."
