After being dressed as cannon fodder, I just want to live

Fang Bai was stunned, a little shocked by what he heard, and the pain in his wrist was ignored.

Looking at the person in front of him, the earnestness in He Ziyan's eyes and the trembling hand on his wrist all showed that He Ziyan was not joking, nor was he just saying "I like you".

…why?

Why does He Ziyan like her?

He Ziyan, who was staring at Fang Bai closely, could clearly see the surprise and bewilderment in Fang Bai's eyes.

For Fang Bai, this confession came suddenly.

But for her, it was a week of deep contemplation, a birthday present to herself.

Especially seeing that the relationship between Fang Bai and Ji Yuning is getting better and better, and Ji Yuning's eyes looking at Fang Bai are getting more and more——

It's not selfish, He Ziyan just doesn't want to leave regrets.

"Aunt Fang," He Ziyan bit her lip and said again, "I like you."

The noisy laughter of the guests downstairs spread to the second floor, and the chaotic noise brought Fang Bai back to his senses.

Fang Bai moved his foot, faced He Ziyan and was silent for two seconds, and finally said softly, "Let go of me first."

He Ziyan let go in response.

Seeing the red wrist being held by her, He Ziyan's eyelashes fluttered, like a child who has done something wrong, eager to defend herself for the first time, "I'm sorry, I... I didn't do it on purpose, but I was afraid that you would leave."

"It's okay." Fang Bai put his hands behind his back, not letting He Ziyan see him again.

The atmosphere fell silent again.

Fang Bai sighed silently, as an adult, she can't wait for a child to speak, can she?

"Hmm..." Fang Bai met He Ziyan's eyes and asked, "You said you like me?"

Facing Fang Bai's question for some reason, the person who was calm just now suddenly became embarrassed and gradually held his breath. He Ziyan grabbed her skirt with her hands and raised her chin to cover up her unnaturalness, but her flushed cheeks were exposed. thought.

He Ziyan didn't realize this, she said nervously: "Yes."

Fang Bai said softly, "Why?"

He Ziyan was stopped by the question.

what why?Why do you like Fang Bai?

Do you need a reason to like someone?He Ziyan had never thought about this question, but now that Fang Bai asked her, He Ziyan needed to speak on the spot.

"... "

Before He Ziyan's [-]-word essay was ready, Fang Bai saw that He Ziyan didn't speak, so he said softly, "Maybe if I change the question, you can tell me, since when did you like me?"

Fang Bai had a guess in his heart.

Whether the guess is correct or not, He Ziyan's answer is very important.

when?This He Ziyan didn't need to think, she said, "Two years ago."

After finishing speaking, He Ziyan blushed, "Number one, this is the first time I see you."

He Ziyan, who was drooping because of shyness, didn't see the obviously loose expression on Fang Bai's face.

Same as her guess.

Liked two years ago, then He Ziyan liked the original owner.

So the previous doubts are cleared up.

Why did He Ziyan change her character design suddenly?From someone who bullies Ji Yuning to someone who wants to make friends with Ji Yuning?

Because the original owner hated Ji Yuning, He Ziyan also hated it, and maybe even wanted to attract the attention of the original owner, deliberately bullying Ji Yuning.And because of Fang Bai's arrival, Fang Bai in He Ziyan's eyes changed her attitude towards Ji Yuning, so she would get close to Ji Yuning and thus "Fang Bai".

Fang Bai felt helpless and didn't know how to respond to this feeling for a moment.

He Ziyan waited for a while, but before Fang Bai could speak, she quietly raised her eyes.

Seeing Fang Bai looking at her calmly, the joy on He Ziyan's face disappeared instantly.

He Ziyan thought that Fang Bai didn't reject her immediately, and that there was a possibility of accepting her, so she was shy, happy, and at a loss.

But now Fang Bai's expression tells her that you have no chance, everything is your illusion.

Fang Bai asked slowly: "Have you ever thought that I am not the person you like?"

"Why," He Ziyan was taken aback by Fang Bai's words, "why not?"

Really not, what you like is the original owner, not me.

Fang Bai couldn't say these words, she lowered her voice, "We haven't had much contact time, the only few times we get along is because of Xiao Ning and Xiao Mu, and I can count the things I said. Not to mention the time when we get along with you , what you see is not what I really am, you don't know me."

Fang Bai said tactfully, "So what you like may just be me in your imagination."

"No, it's not." He Ziyan panicked, shaking her head to deny what Fang Bai said. "I like you, I know it."

He Ziyan took half a step forward, "The first time I saw you, you said something to me, I remembered you at that time, and I would think of it from time to time, I didn't know what my feelings for you were, but in the backstage of the school The moment you leaned towards me, I suddenly understood that all the things I did to hurt Ji Yuning's childishness were all because of—"

Because I want to get your attention.

He Ziyan's raised jaw closed in the past few minutes.

Fang Bai's indifferent eyebrows finally froze. Although she didn't have much contact with He Ziyan, and his attitude towards her was lukewarm at first, but after knowing each other for nearly a year, Fang Bai couldn't turn around and leave. He didn't care about He Ziyan.

At the age of sixteen or seventeen, if they are injured, if they don't enlighten them well, it may be a thorn in their hearts and make them go to extremes.

What's more, it's He Ziyan, a bad girl who became the original owner of the novel.

"Zi Yan." Fang Bai called out.

He Ziyan's heart trembled.

She wanted Fang Bai to call her by her name countless times, but now, she didn't want to.

He Ziyan's eyes were sore from the wind, "Yes."

Fang Bai said softly: "Today is your 17th birthday. I am very glad that you are turning [-]. After that, you will have [-], [-]... When the college entrance examination is over, you will leave Lake City, go to other places to go to school, and step into a bigger world." environment, you will meet all kinds of people. At that time, you will meet the person who completely fits in your heart, and you will be together and live together.”

Fang Bai's lips moved, "So you still have a bright future, you—"

He Ziyan interrupted Fang Bai, seriously: "I hope that person is you."

Fang Bai's eyelids twitched.

He knew that it wasn't that He Ziyan didn't understand what she said, but that he couldn't be the one to save He Ziyan.

In order to prevent He Ziyan from having expectations of her...

Fang Bai's tone was calm, strange and unfamiliar, "Sorry, I don't like children."

He Ziyan thought about many reasons why Fang Bai rejected her, but she didn't think about this one.

All the answers she had conceived in her mind were useless at this moment.

The atmosphere between the two fell into dead silence.

After two breaths, the phone Fang Bai held in his hand vibrated.

A slight vibration broke the silence between the two, and they both looked at the phone at the same time.

Fang Bai's eyes flashed, and he raised his phone.

[Wait for me on the first floor. ]

It's Ji Yuning.

She forgot that she went upstairs to find Ji Yuning...

Fang Bai looked up and found that He Ziyan looked away from her phone.

After a pause, Fang Bai said to He Ziyan: "I'm going downstairs first, do you want to come together?"

He Ziyan shook her head, "I'll go down later."

"Okay." Fang Bai turned around.

Just about to leave, He Ziyan called out again, "Aunt Fang."

Fang Bai just stood still, without turning to look at He Ziyan.

He Ziyan raised her head slightly, and looked at the light blue in front of her. Is it different from the dark blue? She is deceiving herself and thinking of being able to connect with the other party.

"Aunt Fang, today is my birthday, can you help me realize a wish?"

Fang Bai hesitated for a while, then turned slightly sideways: "...you tell me."

"I hope, no matter what happened today, I can still call you Aunt Fang." He Ziyan said.

1 minute later.

Standing in the empty corridor, He Ziyan looked down at the crowd gathered on the first floor, and she also caught the light blue that just came downstairs.

The wish she made just now was granted by the other party.

Blinking her sour eyes, He Ziyan didn't go downstairs, but turned around and walked to the depths of the balcony.

Standing in front of the fence, under the cheerful atmosphere of the birthday in the courtyard, He Ziyan's eyes were full of sadness, "You are right."

He whispered a word, as if speaking to the air.

But He Ziyan moved her gaze from the yard to somewhere on the balcony, and continued, "She won't like me."

In the corner, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness.

Thinking of what the woman said, He Ziyan laughed at herself, then said to Ji Yuning who walked up to her, "But I won't like you either."

10 minutes ago.

He Ziyan asked Ji Yuning to follow her up to the second floor.

When the two arrived, He Ziyan didn't even lay the groundwork, and asked directly: "Do you like Aunt Fang?"

Ji Yuning glanced at He Ziyan, but didn't speak.

For He Ziyan, the answer was not important anymore, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I want the other party's aunt to confess to me tonight."

Ji Yuning responded to He Ziyan this time, but said very lightly: "Yes."

He Ziyan frowned, "Aren't you angry?"

Although Ji Yuning didn't say anything, she knew that Ji Yuning liked Fang Bai.

Ji Yuning said, "It has nothing to do with me."

He Ziyan found Ji Yuning's attitude strange, "What if Aunt Fang is with me?"

Ji Yuning squinted at He Ziyan, indifferently: "She won't like you."

Naturally not with you.

He Ziyan froze, and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Ji Yuning didn't face He Ziyan's question directly, she said: "It's better to confess to another day."

"No." He Ziyan shook her head, "I thought about it for a week and decided today."

From the corner of her eye, Ji Yuning spotted the person who stepped onto the second floor, and said softly, "Here she is."

Then, He Ziyan heard Fang Bai calling her, and then asked where Ji Yuning was.

He Ziyan never thought about confessing to Fang Bai in front of Ji Yuning.

It was all out of jealousy towards Ji Yuning, subconsciously said it out,

"... "

Ji Yuning ignored He Ziyan's words, showing no expression on his face.

He Ziyan didn't understand why Ji Yuning was so calm, Fang Bai's words not only rejected her, but also rejected Ji Yuning.

She doesn't like children.

She and Ji Yuning are both children.

After staring at Ji Yuning for two seconds, He Ziyan turned her head and looked at the crowd scattered in the yard. Their smiling faces were full of smiles from the bottom of their hearts, and they lost their way after hearing too much flattery.

The pride in He Ziyan's eyes faded, she pursed her lips and said, "Thank you."

Thanks for what?

Xie Ji Yuning didn't show up when she confessed impulsively; Xie Ji Yuning sent a message to ask Fang Bai to leave when she was rejected by Fang Bai, and she didn't know how to be in the same room with Fang Bai; Xie Ji Yuning... didn't laugh at her.

Looking at the person with red eyes, Ji Yuning handed over the tissue in his hand.

When He Ziyan took it, Ji Yuning turned and left without stopping.

But when she walked out of the balcony and heard the people behind her still sniffling, Ji Yuning said lightly, "Thank you."

He Ziyan was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at Ji Yuning's leaving back, not understanding what Ji Yuning was thanking.
