Fight and kill?
After hearing Chen Xi's words, Lin Xuan's expression darkened, as if something had touched her heart.
"I …"
Seeing her hesitant look, Chen Xi was a little puzzled.
Thus, after pondering for a while, he smiled and explained, "Actually, practicing martial arts is quite easy. If you really want to learn, I can teach you. You can just treat it as if you're practicing Tai Chi …"
Chen Xi's idea was very simple. He could casually teach Lin Xuan some basic Qi Refining Methods. It could strengthen her body and extend her life. At the same time, it could give her more means of self-defense.
This could also prevent her from encountering something similar to last night.
After all, to a normal person, it would take a lot of mental fortitude to endure two kidnappings …
After Chen Xi's suggestion, Lin Xuan didn't immediately reply. Instead, she turned her head to look at Yingying and Niannian who were playing not far away.
Looking at this classmate, friend, and best friend who was already a mother, and then looking at the lively and cute little fellow beside her, Lin Xuan suddenly felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
She always felt that Yingying was like Mr. Cao Xueqin's description in "Dream of the Red Chamber":
When she's quiet, she's like a beautiful flower shining on the water. When she moves, she's like a weak willow swaying in the wind.
The heart has one more orifice than the body, and the sickly Xi Zi wins by three points.
Although Yingying usually looked weak, she was definitely not a pretentious woman.
She was gentle, low-key, and reserved. If it wasn't for that beautiful face, it would be easy for people to overlook her existence.
After so many years, in Lin Xuan's impression, the only time Yingying showed off her ability was probably when she publicly rejected Zhao Yuan's love and threw herself into Chen Xi's arms …
At that moment, not to mention Chen Xi, even she, a woman, was stunned by Yingying's actions.
Speaking of which, it was laughable. It was also from that moment onwards that she truly began to notice Chen Xi, this piece of gold that had yet to shine …
Lin Xuan stood there in a daze as memories of the past flooded his mind. For a moment, he actually stood there in a daze.
Chen Xi thought that she was thinking, so after a while, he asked with a smile, "What do you think? Would you like to learn? "
"Hmm?"
Chen Xi's voice pulled Lin Xuan back from his chaotic thoughts.
She glanced at Chen Xi with a slightly panicked expression before replying, "When are you going back to Shangjing?"
"Soon, probably within the next few days. Niannian is going to kindergarten. It's time to bring her back to get used to it."
"Oh …"
Lin Xuan went silent again. She buried her head and didn't speak for a long time.
Because she was half a head shorter than Chen Xi, if Chen Xi didn't use his divine sense, he naturally wouldn't be able to see the expression on her face.
Lin Xuan was indeed a bit strange today.
Chen Xi looked at her in confusion. He wondered if what happened last night had triggered her, so he began to think about how to help her get rid of this shadow.
But just as Chen Xi was puzzled, Lin Xuan suddenly said this earth-shattering sentence:
"Chen Xi …"
"I …"
"I like you!"
Her voice was very soft, almost inaudible.
But how sensitive was Chen Xi's ears?
So after hearing her words, Chen Xi couldn't help but frown.
What shouldn't have come finally came …
Chen Xi took a step back without leaving a trace. After putting some distance between Lin Xuan and himself, he began to think about how to answer her.
At this time, Lin Xuan suddenly started to cry. Like a frightened ostrich, she buried her head even deeper.
As the strong sense of guilt gushed out from the bottom of her heart, she could no longer hold back her tears and they slid down her cheeks.
"I'm sorry!!!"
I'm sorry.
I like you …
Just like how the wind flies for eight thousand miles without asking when it will return.
…
Was it wrong to like someone?
It was wrong.
It was a big mistake.
Because she liked a married man, and this man was also her best friend's husband.
Mistake upon mistake.
But …
Was this really her fault?
Actually, the trajectory of fate had changed the moment Chen Xi came back.
If it wasn't for the accidental encounter that day, perhaps she would have accepted Li Xiuwen's pursuit.
After all, how could she not be curious about a man who could make such an outstanding woman like Yingying fall in love with him?
It was this damned curiosity that made her sink deeper and deeper.
There was nothing wrong with liking someone.
Liking someone you shouldn't be liking, that was wrong.
Lin Xuan was very clear about this, so she had always carefully kept her heart in the corner, hoping that one day when she took it out again, there would be no trace of that person left behind.
When you like someone, but you have to bear the pain and bitterness by yourself …
She had already made a big mistake.
In fact, it was not difficult to realize that one was wrong. It was just that this mistake was harder to correct than one would expect.
From the encounter in the shop window, to the fire in the unfinished building …
From the short time they spent together at the wedding, to the despair and helplessness she felt when she was lying on the altar …
Just when she was most afraid, Chen Xi broke through the door …
At that moment …
Just like how she opened the curtains in the morning, the bright and beautiful sunlight shone directly into the darkest corner of her heart.
The originally blurry figure gradually became clearer in Lin Xuan's heart.
This also made her unable to see anything else. Everything in the world was overshadowed. In her eyes, there was only the figure that she yearned for day and night.
Finally, Lin Xuan couldn't control herself anymore. At this moment, she spilled out her heart that had been hidden for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I like you!!!"
Like a primary school student who made a mistake, Lin Xuan lowered her head and apologized to Chen Xi again.
Her voice sounded like she was about to cry, but at the same time, there was a bit of sadness, pain, and bitterness.
I'm sorry …
I shouldn't have disturbed you.
When you fell in love with someone you shouldn't have, even a confession would become a mistake.
Chen Xi finally understood why Lin Xuan was absent-minded today.
He silently looked at Lin Xuan.
After a long silence, Chen Xi said with a serious face, "Don't say sorry, there's nothing wrong with liking someone …"
At this point, Chen Xi couldn't help but turn his head to look in Qin Ruoying's direction.
At this time, Qin Ruoying seemed to have sensed something, so she raised her head and looked at Chen Xi from afar.
But then, Qin Ruoying suddenly smiled and nodded slightly at Chen Xi.
They didn't have the wings of a colorful phoenix, but their hearts were connected.
After getting the approval of his wife, Chen Xi coughed lightly and continued to say to Lin Xuan, "Xuan Xuan, you're a good girl …"
"But you can't spoil things like feelings …"
"Actually, I think you should open your heart and look at the world in another way. That way, you will have new discoveries, and not like now, where you lock yourself in a small room …"
"If I really want to say sorry, I should be the one saying it …"
"I'm sorry, I don't know what I should say now …"
Looking at Lin Xuan, who kept her head down and didn't speak, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh awkwardly after saying a lot of chicken soup for the soul.
This kind of thing really gives me a headache …
Chen Xi really didn't know what to say.
The wind in the park blew gently, and the two were speechless.
After a while, Lin Xuan suddenly raised her head and sniffed gently. She forced a smile on her face and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot myself …"
"There's nothing wrong with liking someone, but I did something wrong …"
"My mistake was that I shouldn't have said it out loud, because it would make me seem selfish and completely disregard other people's feelings …"
"I'm sorry, I hope you guys don't mind."
She said 'you guys', so this apology was obviously meant for Qin Ruoying.
When Chen Xi heard this, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and quickly said, "It's fine, I have a bad memory …"
"Haha."
Lin Xuan was amused by his silly look.
The moment she laughed, she was like a lotus flower at the beginning of the summer rain, beautiful beyond compare.
"Thank you … I've thought it through … Feelings are actually like what you just said, you can't spoil them …"
Speaking of this, Lin Xuan reached out and tucked the scattered hair behind her ear. Then, as if nothing had happened, she smiled at Chen Xi and said, "I have something to do later, so I won't accompany you guys today. I'll leave first …"
"Okay, be careful when you drive."
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
After smiling and waving at Chen Xi, Lin Xuan turned around and quickly walked away.
But after taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and asked Chen Xi loudly, "Hey, Chen Xi, are we still friends?"
This question …
Li Xiuwen just asked her yesterday.
So when Lin Xuan couldn't help but ask Chen Xi the same question, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
But fortunately …
Chen Xi didn't disappoint her.
"Of course, you're one of the few friends Yingying and I have. Be careful on the road, if anything happens, call me …"
"Thank you!"
After hearing Chen Xi's affirmative answer, Lin Xuan couldn't help but smile happily.
But when she turned around, her vision instantly blurred.
Bean-sized teardrops gushed out crazily like a flood that had broken through a dam.
…
After Lin Xuan's figure disappeared from sight, Chen Xi silently retracted his divine sense and then came to Qin Ruoying's side.
The husband and wife stood side by side and quietly watched the naughty little guy run around the park.
This kind of thing should be reported to his wife, but Chen Xi really didn't know where to start.
Qin Ruoying seemed to sense his strangeness, so she took the initiative to reach out her right hand and gently held Chen Xi's left hand.
"I know, Xuan Xuan didn't do it on purpose."
Hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but look at Qin Ruoying with slight surprise, but he only saw Yingying's peaceful smile.
Didn't do it on purpose …
Just these five simple words, but unconsciously pointed out a lot of important things.
Sure enough, Yingying was as low-key, smart, virtuous, and considerate as always.
Thinking of this, Chen Xi couldn't hold it in anymore and kissed her heavily in front of everyone. Immediately, Qin Ruoying's face was filled with disgust as she said coquettishly, "Annoying!"
…
I still like you very much, like the wind that flies eight thousand miles, not asking when it will return.
