Ji Xiaoyue was stunned. She frowned and said, "Why do you ask? I agreed to marry him not because of anyone else, but because I want to be with him."
Ye Huanyan smiled. "Don't you know everything? You say so many things, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Are you angry with my brother, or are you angry with yourself?"
Ji Xiaoyue fell silent. Her eyes, which were shining with confidence, dimmed. "You're right. I'm angry with myself."
"… …"
"I'm not jealous of Fu Yingxiang. Saying this may seem like I'm taking pleasure in her misfortune, but although I'm not jealous of her, I feel very upset. Back then, I also pestered Gu Sinian for a long time. At first, he didn't intend to accept me at all. I'm also not his type at all. But because of a freak combination of factors, this opportunity was given to me in the end. So when I saw them in the bamboo forest that day, for a moment, I actually felt that your brother had loved her before. Maybe he didn't even realize it himself."
Those years when he lost Su Ke and their child were the lowest points in Gu Sinian's life. During that time, he couldn't walk out of the shadow. So he didn't talk about relationships and focused on his career. Fu Yingxiang also didn't rush him. She waited silently. But when enough time passed, she didn't have the time to be the first to appear in front of him.
"I beat you to it. I don't know if it's because I'm lucky or because Fu Yingxiang is too unlucky. When Gu Sinian walked out of the past, I happened to be by his side. So the person who appeared in the end was me and not her. But what if I didn't appear in the beginning? If Fu Yingxiang's family didn't meet with any mishaps, perhaps she and Gu Sinian would have been looking for you in Lan River. "
When it came to love, it was really about fate. No matter how early you came, how long you stayed with him, or how much you gave, it was not as good as the moment he opened his heart, the moment he opened his eyes, a smile entered his line of sight.
Ye Huanyan frowned. After calming himself down, he decided not to follow her train of thought. "Your logic is wrong."
"…"
"According to what you said, after my brother walked out of the shadows, he would fall in love with whoever was by his side. Then what kind of person would my brother be?"
"Not just anyone can do it."
Ji Xiaoyue fiddled with the bonfire in a muffled voice. "But Fu Yingxiang can. And if she's with Gu Sinian, she'll also be very happy. Actually, I'm not irreplaceable. I just can't do anything about this fact."
Ye Huanyan's heart ached at her words. Finally, she glared at her and said, "You're asking for it."
People were always greedy. When they didn't have something, they would think that it would be great if they had it. After they had it, they would think that it would be great if the thing they had was perfect.
But what exactly was perfection?
Perhaps no one could say for sure.
"The chicken wings are ready. Come and eat."
He Chaoqun's voice pierced through the night, accompanied by the crackling of the bonfire. The entire beach was filled with smoke.
"Do you drink? Sis. "
While speaking, he had already walked over with a plate of chicken wings and two bottles of beer in his other hand. He sat down on the woolen blanket. "It's so hot here."
Ye Huanyan rolled her eyes at him. "Young man, I think you're just full of fire."
"It's really hot. You're sitting so close to the bonfire. Aren't you afraid that your clothes will be burned?"
"Why don't you go swimming in the sea?"
Ji Xiaoyue was in a bad mood, so she interrupted in a bad mood. She snatched the beer from his hand. "Just nice to cool off the fire."
"Okay …"
As soon as he finished speaking, a white porcelain plate was stuffed into Ye Huanyan's hand. It was filled with fragrant chicken wings. The young man beside her took off his hoodie and threw it on the blanket. He shouted in the direction of the barbecue, "Brother Sinian, Brother Ling Han, the sisters want to watch the winter swimming competition. Do you want to participate?"
When He Chaoqun took off his clothes, Ling Han had already dropped the barbecue in his hand and was walking over. When he heard this, he paused and looked at Ye Huanyan inquisitively. Before Ye Huanyan could speak, Ji Xiaoyue downed half a bottle of beer and shouted in a delirious state, "Young man, they're old. They're not as hot as you. Go, the sisters will watch you swim."
He Chaoqun laughed heartily and ran towards the waves. As he ran, he threw away his sneakers and jeans along the way. In the end, he only wore a pair of boxers and plunged into the sea.
Ye Huanyan was laughing when she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking into the sea.
When she focused, her face slightly stiffened. "Xiao Yue, what you just said might have triggered my brother …"
Gu Sinian was striding towards the waves. His slender fingers unbuttoned the bow tie on his shirt. After unbuttoning all the buttons, he threw the shirt on the beach. He threw away his suit pants and belt, then followed He Chaoqun's figure into the waves.
Ji Xiaoyue was slightly stunned. She tightened her grip on the beer bottle and her eyes were fixed on the sea.
Ye Huanyan had a smile in her eyes. She looked back at the figure not far from her. "Ling Han, don't go. He Chaoqun has too much energy and my brother is sulking. Let's not join in the fun and let them play by themselves."
Ling Han nodded.
Ye Huanyan finally relaxed and turned to watch the fun. Suddenly, she clapped her hands and shouted, "Oh my god, the young are indeed different. Did you see that? Xiaoqun seems to have turned around. Xiaoqun, you can do it …"
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure beside her also walked towards the sea. She couldn't call them back.
Ye Huanyan was pulled back onto the blanket by Ji Xiaoyue. "You're still talking about me. Didn't you provoke someone?"
"What did I say wrong? Didn't I just cheer them on? "
Ji Xiaoyue pursed her lips. "Sometimes, a man's heart is as small as a needle's eye. Your brother's desire to win is abnormally strong."
"You think my brother's desire to win is not strong?" Ye Huanyan pursed her lips.
"You're still watching the fun? Just wait and see. Tonight, they won't come back until they've done 800 rounds. "
He Chaoqun was really full of energy. After all, he was a young man in his early twenties. His body had an endless amount of energy. Gu Sinian, on the other hand, was holding his breath. He was angry that his wife had inexplicably neglected him for half a month. He had to win this competition to vent his anger.
Ling Han was aiming for He Chaoqun. He had to prove to Ye Huanyan that physical strength had nothing to do with age. Instead, it was related to life experience.
In short, the three of them had their own ulterior motives. They bobbed up and down on the sea, back and forth, looking like they wouldn't stop until they were dead.
In the end, He Chaoqun lay on the beach. He was so tired that he was about to vomit. He waved his hands and said, "Brothers, I can't swim anymore. You guys continue. I'm tired. I'm going back to sleep."
Ling Han and Gu Sinian were left paralyzed on the beach. Half of their bodies were still submerged in the water. A wave could drown the two of them, but neither of them had the strength to go ashore.
