Qiao Yanze met her surprised eyes, and the smile in his eyes deepened. He reached out to lift a strand of hair from her cheek and said in a low voice, "It's hard for me to see you now. In order not to let them notice your existence, I had to prepare for a long time in advance … Otherwise, I would have come to you as soon as I was discharged. "
The man's fingertips were burning, and Li Yinian subconsciously avoided them.
"… Don't worry. I don't plan on doing anything. I just want to see you," Qiao Yanze added.
Li Yinian looked at the girl's peak and said bitterly, "You shouldn't have come. The more you do, the harder it is for you to let it go. "
"Indeed." He smiled again. "I was bored during the few days I was in the hospital, so I thought of a question. If we had been siblings from the start, what would it be like now? "
This was the first time Li Yinian had heard him say the word 'siblings'.
She took a bite of the ice cream, and the cold and sweet taste seemed to suppress the heat in her eyes.
"If that was the case, perhaps you would be married now," she said in a low voice.
Qiao Yanze smiled.
"I'm afraid not." He sounded calm, but there was an indescribable passion in his voice. "I'll probably still fall in love with you, and I'll be even crazier than I am now to get you."
Li Yinian's heart skipped a beat, and she clenched the ice cream in her hand.
"Qiao Yanze, stop joking …"
She had thought that the man's rare calmness was because he had accepted the fact that it was impossible for them to be together. Perhaps he had taken the time to see her because he couldn't accept it.
However, it seemed that she was too optimistic.
"Are you scared?" The man looked at her pale face, and his voice was lazy again. "So you should be glad that we have a past, so my mental demon isn't too serious."
Li Yinian breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's right." She said softly. "At least we were happy for those few months. It's enough as long as you still have that beauty in your heart. Your persistence will only destroy it. So, can you let go? "
Qiao Yanze didn't say anything for a long time.
Li Yinian's heart was in her throat. Fortunately, she finally heard the man say hoarsely, "Okay."
She slowly exhaled, only feeling that the big stone that had been pressing on her heart had finally been completely lifted. While she was relieved, a deep sense of loss was also unavoidable — — but this, she could overcome.
If he let go, it meant that the secret would always be a secret, and the things that scared her would never happen.
"It's getting dark," Qiao Yanze said lightly. "I should go."
He stood up, but his body swayed uncontrollably. Li Yinian was shocked, and she couldn't care less about the ice cream in her hand. She reached out to help him.
It wasn't until then that she remembered that this man had just recovered from a serious illness. After flying for more than ten hours and driving for several hours, his body had probably reached its limit.
She made a prompt decision. "If you don't have anything urgent to do, rest here for a night before you leave."
Qiao Yanze's face turned pale.
He looked down at her, his dark eyes unfathomable.
