Steamed Bun?
≠
It had been a very long time since Lin Feng had heard someone mention such a familiar name.
His friends and companions, including Tang Bingyao, Ceng Rui, Ouyang, Yang Fan, and Ren Rou, since May this year, whenever they gathered together, they would intentionally or unintentionally avoid this name, for fear of touching someone's nerves.
Even Lin Feng himself tried his best not to think of that girl.
Half a year had already passed.
However, memory was truly a mysterious thing. When you thought that you had gradually forgotten about certain things and people, in reality, those people and things were only sealed in the deepest part of your heart, and there was still a mark that could not be erased. When that name was mentioned again, all the past and memories came flooding back like a tide.
It was as if countless figures and scenes were flashing past his mind like a flashing lantern.
Every scene.
There was that fairy-like girl, smiling sweetly and looking at him with her hands behind her back.
Why …
I still haven't forgotten.
Why would I remember it again?
Lin Feng's fists were clenched tightly. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
The atmosphere was a little quiet.
Number Five stood in front of Lin Feng. His eyes were as gentle and tranquil as a lake.
He said softly, "I know about you and Steamed Bun."
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Number Five.
"Did Tang Tang tell you?"
Number Five smiled and shook his head. "No, I heard it from Steamed Bun."
Lin Feng couldn't help but tremble. He couldn't help but blurt out, "Steamed Bun … How is she now?"
But after saying that, he suddenly came to a realization.
But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly came to a realization. He clenched his teeth and shook his head.
"Forget it."
"It has nothing to do with me."
He could not hold back the anger in his voice, but when the others heard it, they could easily tell that he was acting in a fit of pique. Number Five's lips curled up slightly.
"Oh, is that so?"
"But when I heard from Steamed Bun, she was very concerned about how you were doing."
Lin Feng's heart couldn't help but thump violently, but he still tried to control his emotions. His expression didn't change, and he forced himself to speak in a stiff tone.
"Oh."
"That has nothing to do with me."
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, the smell of anger was even stronger.
The smile on Number Five's face deepened. He patiently coaxed Steamed Bun as if he were coaxing a child, "Then you really don't want to know what Steamed Bun said? At that time, I talked to her on the phone for a long time. Originally, it was just a casual chat, but in the end, it became that she couldn't bear to hang up the phone and kept talking about you. "
Lin Feng's eyelids twitched.
Then, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva and said with some difficulty,
"No … I don't want to know."
Although he was still holding on, his tone was obviously shaken.
Number Five couldn't help but feel annoyed and amused at the same time. He reached out his hand and rubbed Lin Feng's head. "You're not going to admit defeat. You're not going to win."
"You're just stubborn."
"You're even more stubborn than Senior Number One back then."
Lin Feng didn't resist Number Five's impolite rubbing of his head, obediently letting Xiao Wu rub his head into a mess. But Lin Feng's mouth still mumbled unhappily:
"This is called the pupil surpassing the master …"
Before he could finish, he was lightly patted on the head again. Number Five rebuked him:
"You still want to talk big with your Xiao Wu sis?"
She paused for a moment and looked at Lin Feng with a smile that wasn't quite a smile on her face. She emphasized her tone and asked again:
"So …"
"You really don't want to know?
You really don't care at all? "
Facing Number Five's beautiful eyes that seemed to be able to see through a person's heart, Lin Feng's lips moved. In the end, he quietly lowered his head and said:
"Yes."
Once he admitted it, he seemed to finally let go of his original guard. He felt relieved and relaxed. But then he raised his head and said stubbornly:
"But when Steamed Bun left, she didn't say a word to me."
"She lied to me!"
Looking at Lin Feng, Number Five's expression softened as he spoke in a soft voice.
She said softly, "I know."
"That's why when we were on the phone, Steamed Bun talked about this many times. She also felt very sad and guilty. She felt that she had let you down."
Lin Feng tightly pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Number Five's gaze fell on Lin Feng. Seeing the stubborn expression on Lin Feng's face, she slightly shook her head:
"So you guys haven't been in contact for a long time."
"Some things, of course, Steamed Bun didn't do a good job. But Lin Feng, have you ever thought that maybe she had some difficulties that she couldn't tell you?"
Lin Feng said bitterly:
"Then, she should have told me."
"But even after she left, she never took the initiative to contact me."
This was something that he had never told anyone. It was the thing that bothered him the most.
In the past six months, although he had been trying his best to forget the girl's figure, he couldn't help but take out his phone from time to time. He had a faint hope and expectation, thinking that perhaps one day she would take the initiative to contact him, apologize, and explain everything.
But she didn't.
For a whole half year, he waited for nothing.
That phone number and that name in his contact list, even in his QQ and WeChat friends list, that profile picture seemed to be gray and forgotten.
Number Five shook his head and sighed:
"Maybe, it's just that she never really had the courage to tell you these things."
"You don't know, right? When we talked about this on the phone …"
"Steamed Bun, she cried."
It was just a gentle sentence, but it made Lin Feng's heart skip a beat. His entire body froze in place. The anger and dissatisfaction he had felt a second ago seemed to have been swept away in an instant. His mind also became a mess, and there was only one thought left in his mind:
Steamed Bun …
Cried?
Seeing Lin Feng's somewhat stunned expression, Number Five's voice became even gentler, as if it had a magical power that comforted and made people have no choice but to believe it.
"It's not right to make a girl cry."
"No matter what the situation is."
"Is the relationship between the two of you going to be severed because of such a small matter?"
Lin Feng's lips moved with difficulty, but he felt a little dry and couldn't speak.
"Also —"
"Although it's because Steamed Bun didn't make it well, sometimes, if a girl doesn't have the courage to take the initiative …"
"As a man, can't you be more generous and gentlemanly?"
Number Five's eyes were filled with gentle encouragement and a bit of anticipation.
Lin Feng stood there in a daze, as if thinking for a long time. Finally, he raised his head again and looked at Number Five. He took a deep breath and slowly nodded with difficulty.
"Yes."
Number Five's face showed a gratified smile.
This was a one-word promise.
It seemed that the relationship that had been deadlocked for almost half a year had finally ushered in a new turning point.
