Song Qingchun was startled. After a long time, she said slowly, "No."
"You didn't?" Qin Yinan countered in a gentle voice. He continued to stare at Song Qingchun as if trying to figure out whether she was telling the truth or not.
The girl's eyes were calm, and her lips were curved upward. She did not look like she was lying.
Could it be that I'm overthinking this?
Qin Yinan thought about it and blinked. He pulled his gaze away from Song Qingchun and pulled out a delicately wrapped box from his pocket. He passed it to Song Qingchun and said, "This is your new year present."
Song Qingchun accepted it. "Thank you, Brother Yinan."
Qin Yinan stood there and glanced at the box in her palm. Finally, he could not help but ask, "Aren't you going to open it?"
"I'll open it when I get home." Song Qingchun smiled at Qin Yinan but did not open the present. After a pause, she added, "This way, we can maintain some of the mystery."
Qin Yinan did not say anything, but his gentle expression had turned serious.
If he had thought that he was thinking too much earlier, then he was sure that he wasn't thinking too much now.
Song Qingchun would pester him for presents during every festival, and as time went by, it had become a habit for him to prepare a present for her during every festival.
Whenever she received a gift from him, she was always very excited. She would ask him what the gift was and eagerly open it.
Most of the presents he had given her were girly accessories, and she would put them on right in front of him. Then, she would smile and ask him if they looked good.
Sometimes, she would be surrounded by a lot of people, but she wouldn't care at all. Unlike today, when he gave her a gift, she just held it in her hand indifferently, without any of the joy and excitement she had in the past.
Qin Yinan bit on his lips as he looked at Song Qingchun. He returned to the earlier question. "Song Song, I have a feeling you've been distancing yourself from me lately. Is it because I've done something wrong to make you unhappy?"
"Brother Yinan, have you become more melancholic because of your new girlfriend?" Song Qingchun smiled and said half-jokingly, "Brother Yinan, I did not distance myself from you. You are my Brother Yinan, so why would I distance myself from you? Plus, didn't you promise to be my Brother Yinan forever? Could it be that you're not willing, so you're saying that I'm distancing myself from you? "
Yes, he had always been her Brother Yinan; he was, was, and would always be.
He would never know that behind the statement that he was her Brother Yinan, there was also the fact that she liked him.
She wasn't estranged from him, she just didn't love him anymore.
It wasn't that he wasn't good enough, it was that he wasn't good enough to her. He didn't make her unhappy, nor did he do anything wrong. It was just because she liked him one-sidedly that she hurt her own heart.
Therefore, in her heart, he was really just the Brother Yinan that she had grown up with.
He only asked because he thought she was too distant from him, but in the end, she turned the tables on him. Qin Yinan did not know whether to laugh or cry, but seeing how she was pestering him, he calmed down a lot. "Nonsense, why would I not want to be your Brother Yinan?"
