Tan Xiu's heart was full of complex emotions, but his face looked extraordinarily calm. He looked at Han Qingwu's serious expression and indifferently said, "Whether I'm an ordinary person or not has nothing to do with you. Han Qingwu, I still remember saying that you are you and I am me. I hope that we can keep a distance from each other. "
"Why?"
Han Qingwu abruptly stood up with an angry expression on her beautiful face. She didn't know why she felt a dull pain in her heart after hearing Tan Xiu's words.
"It's nothing. I just … think that you're a teacher and I'm your student, and there's a generation gap between us," said Tan Xiu. "Furthermore, we've known each other for a long time, and you're still my teacher-in-charge, whereas I'm your student. So I don't want us to be too close and be misunderstood by others."
Han Qingwu glared at Tan Xiu and loudly said, "I'm a woman and I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of as a man? Whoever wants to misunderstand, just let them misunderstand. You're not married, and neither am I. Even if we're really together, who can stop us? "
"You …"
Never once did Tan Xiu expect that Han Qingwu could say such words. Upon seeing her angry expression, Tan Xiu directly got up and said, "Miss Han, we're all adults and we need to be rational to see the problem. Even if you don't think for me, you still have to think for me! If we're too close, it will affect my relationship with … my girlfriend. You can see that she's already living in my house. You came to see me so late. She may not say anything, but she's definitely uncomfortable inside. "
"You … your girlfriend?"
Han Qingwu murmured as she glanced at the corridor where Mu Wanying just disappeared.
Tan Xiu steeled his heart and nodded, "Yeah, Mu Wanying is my girlfriend. Don't tell me you still don't understand? With her character, how could she live here if she's not my girlfriend? It's just that we didn't want to make it public before. Now that you're forcing me to say it, I can only be honest with you. "
Han Qingwu covered her chest with her hand. Suddenly, she felt as if something very important was missing from her heart. In that sense of loss, there was an indescribable pain.
"I … I understand."
She turned around in a daze. Her expression became particularly dull as she walked out in a daze. She didn't even drive the car that was parked outside the courtyard. Instead, she walked out in a daze.
Tan Xiu quietly followed behind her. After walking out of the courtyard, he looked at her gradually thinning figure and sighed in his heart. He knew that Han Qingwu was Xue Qingcheng, but the scene of the attack on the Celestial World was still unforgettable for him.
Therefore, his feelings towards Han Qingwu were very complicated. There was gratitude, hatred, and confusion. All kinds of emotions filled his chest. It was as if a bottle of five flavors had been knocked over, and all kinds of feelings kept surging in his heart.
"Did you two quarrel, Master?"
Chen Zhizhong quietly came to Tan Xiu's side. He looked at Han Qingwu's back with some pity and spoke softly.
Tan Xiu nodded and then shook his head. After Han Qingwu's back disappeared around the corner in the distance, he sighed and said, "Some grievances are very complicated. You follow her! Don't let any accidents happen to her on the way back. "
"Understood!"
Chen Zhizhong had no right to interfere with Tan Xiu's emotional issues, but he still obeyed Tan Xiu's order and quickly returned to the courtyard. He picked up his coat and put it on, and then strode toward the direction where Han Qingwu left.
When Tan Xiu returned to the living room, he found that Mu Wanying had already come out of her room. She was sitting on the sofa in the living room and seemed to be lost in thought. Had it been in the past, Tan Xiu might have had the mood to ask about it. But now, he was too lazy to do so and was ready to return to the second floor to calm himself down.
"Tan Xiu, I already told you that she likes you."
Mu Wanying's voice sounded behind Tan Xiu.
Tan Xiu's footsteps came to a halt. He turned to look at Mu Wanying, who had just stood up and calmly said, "I'm sorry about what just happened. I used the excuse of you being my girlfriend to tell Han Qingwu to stay away from me."
"Why did you do that?" Mu Wanying forced a smile. "Although I don't want you to be with Han Qingwu, you used such a reason to refuse her and hurt her greatly."
"I once heard a saying that the threads of feelings are tangled if you can't cut them," Tan Xiu said lightly. "It's better to cut the Gordian knot and end this complicated emotional factor. I have my life and she has hers. Later, when she finds her husband and I have a family, both of us will forget each other's existence. Do you know what's the most terrifying thing in the world? "
"What is it?" asked Mu Wanying.
"Time!" Tan Xiu said. "Time can heal all wounds and make people forget a lot of things."
Time?
Mu Wanying shook her head and said, "Maybe I'll believe your words if people can live for thousands of years. But a person's lifespan is only a hundred years at most. Some unforgettable feelings will never be forgotten in the remaining decades. That pain will always be engraved in my heart, and that love will always be buried in the bottom of my heart. "
Tan Xiu fell into silence.
He knew that Mu Wanying was right. His high-sounding words just now were just to convince himself to forget Han Qingwu. But could he really forget her?
He suddenly felt that he was a bit amused. The idea of deceiving himself and others unexpectedly came to his mind. He even realized that his original plan to live a carefree life seemed to be too difficult to achieve.
Mu Wanying looked at the silent Tan Xiu. Suddenly, a bright smile appeared on her beautiful face. She strode toward Tan Xiu and said with a smile, "Tan Xiu, you're the Heaven's favored one in my heart. You're the most outstanding man I've ever met. I actually wanted to take advantage of your unstable mood to take advantage of it. Perhaps this is also the best chance I've ever had in my life. How about we make it real? You be my man and I'll be your woman. How about we get a marriage certificate tomorrow if you like? "
"You don't have a fever, do you?"
Tan Xiu didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. He deliberately raised his hand to touch Mu Wanying's forehead and then said with a smile.
Mu Wanying let out a faint smile as though she had seen through Tan Xiu's mind. She still persevered and said, "Don't try to change the topic. I don't have a fever and I'm very healthy now. I know you're very helpless and don't want to be entangled with so many outstanding women. If you marry me, you will be able to reject those women justifiably. Why not? "
The smile on Tan Xiu's face slowly faded. He looked at Mu Wanying's beautiful face and stepped back. He shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but I can't give you feelings."
"We'll talk about feelings later," said Mu Wanying. "I believe that as long as I have your body, I can have your heart sooner or later."
Tan Xiu shook his head again and said, "If I have my body, can I really have my heart?"
"Maybe not. But how can I know if I don't try?" Mu Wanying said. "If I win, then you'll belong to me completely. But if I lose, I'll admit it."
Tan Xiu turned around and walked toward the stairs. He only said to Mu Wanying, "I don't think you need to try. Someone has already taken my body, but they still can't have my heart. The knot in my heart can't be untied. Even if more people come to my door, I can't make them love me. "
Mu Wanying was stunned.
What she said tonight was all from the bottom of her heart. But she never expected that Tan Xiu would give her such an answer.
Who was it?
She really wanted to know who that person was. She even felt a faint jealousy in her heart. She was jealous of the woman who could have Tan Xiu, even if she couldn't have his heart.
That night.
Mu Wanying was suffering from insomnia, and so was Han Qingwu.
The dazed Han Qingwu left the Bluestar Villa Complex and walked for a long time in a daze. She woke up because she was almost hit by a car on the road, and Chen Zhizhong came to her rescue.
She returned to her residence.
Han Qingwu soaked herself in the bathtub for a long time. Her whole body seemed to be shrouded in a deathly aura. After crawling out of the bathtub in a daze, she lay on the bed in her pajamas and opened her eyes until dawn.
The next morning.
Tan Xiu went to the campus. After exchanging some books in the library, he chatted with Yue Kai, Xue Chao, and the others for a while. After that, he called Chen Zhizhong and embarked on the journey back to Star City.
South Gate Town.
After Tan Xiu stepped into the house, he smelled a faint aroma of food. At this moment, his heart suddenly became tranquil.
Home!
I need a mother!
He had been living in the Immortal World for thousands of years. Even in his dreams, he hoped that one day, he would be able to smell the aroma of his mother's cooking when he returned home. He would be able to see her familiar back and see her forever young face. All of a sudden, he found that his previous messy mood was so ridiculous. Regardless of what he had encountered in the past, he was now back and truly living in the same world as his mother.
"Xiu, where's your luggage?"
Tang Yunde came down from the stairs on the second floor. He looked at Tan Xiu, who returned empty-handed, and asked with a faint smile.
Tan Xiu didn't want to tell him about the interspatial ring, so he casually made up a reason. Yet, he felt warm inside. His regret was that he had never felt the taste of a father's love. Now that he came back, not only did he return to his mother's side, but he also made up for that fatherly love, which made him feel even more warm inside.
"Dad, where's Mom?"
"She's cooking in the kitchen," said Tang Yunde with a smile. "I knew you were back, so I wanted to be her assistant. But she didn't agree no matter what."
Tan Xiu smiled. He walked to the kitchen door and saw the back of his mother, Su Lingyun, who was busy. As if she heard his footsteps, Su Lingyun turned her head.
"Xiu, you're back! Hurry up and wash your hands. I'm going to cook another dish, and then we can start eating. "
"Okay!"
Tan Xiu replied with a smile and turned to the bathroom with satisfaction.
Dinner.
There was only a family of three, but they got along with each other happily and harmoniously. This kind of atmosphere not only filled Tan Xiu's heart with warmth, but also made Su Lingyun think of the past days. Her eyes turned slightly red, and her smile was particularly bright.
[Today, we'll continue to watch the third night. Quiet Night's debt will soon be paid off. Soon, we can play the game of watching the second night with our brothers and sisters ^ _ ^]
