Looking at the empty space beside Su Xiao, Li Xiaoyang sighed and said, "Tsk tsk, she's finally gone. I'm so happy."
Han Mo 'er said, "Don't be happy too early. What if she comes back halfway?"
Li Xiaoyang said, "I don't believe that she's so thick-skinned as to come back."
Jiujiu did not participate in the discussion, but she was very sure that Su Xiao would not come back.
When she held Su Xiao's wrist, she accidentally found out that Su Xiao was pregnant. Although it was very early, it could be diagnosed. The reason why Jiujiu persuaded Su Xiao not to continue being with Luo Hai was because she saw Luo Hai with another woman shoulder to shoulder when she went out with Yang Ran last time. Moreover, it seemed that Luo Hai had already fallen in love.
The road of love was especially narrow. If two people were just right, three people would be crowded. Luo Hai's heart was no longer with Su Xiao. There was no point in Su Xiao forcing her to stay. If she did not let go now, she would let go sooner or later after suffering enough.
Moreover, was Su Xiao really with Luo Hai because of love?
Jiujiu did not think so. How could a person who could say that he would be with her if the other party's family background was good be purely because of love?
Not long after Su Xiao moved out, the final exam began.
The final exam lasted for a total of five days. After the exam, most people left one after another.
Li Xiaoyang and Han Mo 'er's house was relatively far away, so they bought a sleeper bed for that night.
Jiujiu and Yang Ran drove Li Xiaoyang and Han Mo 'er to the train station. They only left hand in hand after seeing them enter the station.
Not long after the holidays, it was the New Year. Jiujiu was going to her grandparents' house this year. Her grandparents' house was in the neighboring city. Moreover, because Jiujiu's parents were preparing to spend the New Year at her grandparents' house this year, she and Yang Ran would not have the chance to see each other again during the New Year. Therefore, Jiujiu was very reluctant to part.
Walking hand in hand on the street, a cold wind happened to blow, and snowflakes floated in the sky in a moment.
The fluttering snowflakes slowly drifted down like willow catkins. They melted little by little, turning into water droplets and disappearing without a trace. Then, the coldness spread along the exposed skin bit by bit into the body.
Yang Ran couldn't help but tighten his grip on Jiujiu's hand. He didn't want Jiujiu to continue being cold, but he didn't want to let go either. After hesitating for a moment, he took Jiujiu to a nearby restaurant.
Walking into the restaurant, the heater in the restaurant hit their faces, causing the silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of Yang Ran's nose to form a hazy mist. Yang Ran took off her glasses and rubbed the corners of her eyes. Holding Jiujiu's hand, she walked to an empty corner and stopped.
After casually ordering a few dishes that Jiujiu liked to eat, Yang Ran used hot water to heat Jiujiu's bowl and chopsticks.
Because he wasn't wearing glasses, Yang Ran's eyes were slightly narrowed. They were long and narrow, deep, and exceptionally charming.
Although it was just heating the cutlery, he was especially serious about it. A serious man was the most charming. Yang Ran's lowered head made Jiujiu's heart instantly soften. She couldn't help but hold her chin and look at Yang Ran without blinking for a long time. She didn't blink for a long time, afraid that she would miss a small moment.
After boiling the cutlery, Yang Ran raised her head and saw Jiu Jiu's infatuated face. She chuckled and the divine beast tapped the tip of Jiu Jiu's small nose. She smiled and said, "You're silly."
"En." Jiujiu fixed her eyes on Yang Ran, unwilling to look away for even a moment. When she thought that she would be away for a long time, Jiujiu's heart was especially reluctant. She held Yang Ran's hand and said in a low voice, "Teacher, I don't want to be separated from you."
Jiujiu's voice was still immature with a childish tone, which made people's hearts itch. However, because of the reluctance in her tone, the atmosphere became inexplicably sad.
Jiujiu's eyes trembled slightly, her eyelashes fluttered up and down, and her small face was full of uneasiness and reluctance.
Yang Ran sighed in his heart and raised his hand to rub the top of Jiujiu's head. He proposed a solution. "We can video call or call."
"But I can't touch you, and I can't face you face. Even wanting to give you a hug is a luxury." Jiujiu's tone was very long and sad.
Just at this moment, the dishes were served. Yang Ran picked up a dish that Jiujiu liked and put it in Jiujiu's bowl. "Eat first."
"I can't eat." Jiujiu put down her bowl and looked up at Yang Ran. She said in a serious tone, "How about I don't go back? I'll spend the New Year here with you."
Yang Ran looked at Jiujiu's serious face and knew that Jiujiu was serious. However, the closer it was to the end of the year, the more uneasy Yang Ran felt. Especially when his parents found out about his relationship with Jiujiu and wanted to meet Jiujiu, his uneasiness became even stronger.
He clearly knew that Jiujiu and Jiujiu were not the same person, but he inexplicably thought of his parents in his previous life when they found out about his relationship with Jiujiu. When he thought of this, Yang Ran could not calmly introduce Jiujiu to his parents.
There was a knot in his heart. Although he knew very well that he liked Jiujiu and wanted to be with Jiujiu for the rest of his life, he could not beat those memories of the past.
Yang Ran chose to ignore Jiujiu's request. He only said, "You haven't seen your grandparents for a long time. If you don't go, they will be very sad."
Jiujiu pursed her lips and looked up at Yang Ran, waiting for his reply.
However, Yang Ran did not reply. He only looked down and drank water. From the beginning to the end, he did not look up at Jiujiu.
Jiujiu bit her lip. "Teacher, do you not like me anymore?"
Yang Ran frowned. "No."
"Then why are you so against me spending the New Year with you? If it's not that you don't like me, then what is it? You think I'm a liar? "
Yang Ran frowned. "Who said that to you?"
Jiujiu lowered her eyelids to hide the uneasiness and vulnerability in her eyes. "A few days ago, someone told me that I'm a liar. I'm with you for the exam questions, the high scores, and the scholarship. Teacher, do you think so too?"
Yang Ran felt that these words were exceptionally harsh just by listening to them, let alone Jiujiu who was enduring them. Yang Ran frowned with an ugly expression. "Who said that?"
Jiujiu pursed her lips and did not answer Yang Ran. She only said, "Teacher, you don't need to care who said it. Just tell me if you think so too. Do you also think that I'm a liar and got close to you for the scholarship?"
Yang Ran said, "No, you're not a liar."
Even without him, Jiujiu could still get a high score and get a scholarship. How could Jiujiu be a liar?
No one knew this better than Yang Ran. The closer he got to Jiujiu, the more shocked he was by Jiujiu's intelligence and spirituality. She really understood at once. If such a smart Jiujiu was a liar, then there was no one in the world who was not a liar.
"But if I'm not a liar, then why do you keep rejecting my approach? You know that I like you. You know that I want to be with you. You know that I just want to spend the New Year with you. Why do you keep rejecting me? Why?"
