Xu Duanran has always been a very awkward person.

Probably because she witnessed her father's betrayal since she was a child, her relatives who were good to her also left one after another.

From a certain day on, the little girl learned to use bluff to hide her true thoughts, as if this was the only way to protect herself.

When Zhang Mingyang and Xu Duanran were playing together when they were children, Yan Hui often said that you are older than your sister, so you should give her more space.

He liked this beautiful sister very much and happily agreed with his head.

He has been very kind to Xu Duanran since he was a child, but the eldest lady has closed her heart and seems to have forgotten how to express her feelings and will only accept them passively.

In the end, he returned this feeling in the most clumsy way.

Just like this time, she ran to Linjiang alone without saying anything and chose a very outrageous gift.

"Actually, if you want to come to me, just call me directly. You don't have to come secretly." Zhang Mingyang answered the question incorrectly.

After his rebirth, the person he least knew how to deal with was Xu Duanran.

Having seen the future, he understood that there would be no results between the two of them. In the beginning, they just wanted to be friends, and the relationship gradually became dull.

But how could a relationship of more than ten years be let go so easily?

Xu Duanran seemed to have noticed the changes in him during this period, and made clumsy concessions in his own way.

"I just want to know what you are doing in Linjiang." Xu Duanran lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhang Mingyang sitting opposite, and played with the tips of his coral-colored hair with his fingers.

"We have always been together before, and we have never been separated for such a long time. There are many things about you that I don't know about. I am very worried. I always feel..." You seem to be getting farther and farther away from me.

Xu Duanran's voice gradually became quieter, and he couldn't say the last part.

The eldest lady mustered up her courage and finally raised her head and looked at Zhang Mingyang seriously.

"Can you please don't leave me?"

She had nothing and only Zhang Mingyang was by her side.

But the bad guy broke their relationship without permission. After breaking it, he smiled and waved to her and said, "I have no regrets anymore, I'm going to start a new adventure!"

The girl was left alone and helpless.

Obviously, the relationship between them should be more precious and stronger than the fragile relationship between lovers.

Zhang Mingyang was shocked. Is this still the Xu Duanran he knew? When did the eldest lady become so frank!

No matter how stupid or slow a person is, they can now understand the meaning between the lines of this long paragraph.

I miss you.

Xu Duanran stared at him a little, and he subconsciously reached out and touched the tip of his nose.

"Don't mess with me."

This action is very familiar to Xu Duanran. As a child, whenever Zhang Mingyang lied, he would subconsciously touch the tip of his nose, and then Aunt Yan would beat him up.

Later, Zhang Mingyang learned to be smart. He didn't even need to draft any lies, and there were no unnecessary tricks.

The little moves from childhood coming back to me only prove one thing.

Zhang Mingyang panicked.

The eldest lady, who has always been tough-talking and arrogant, is rarely frank, but this time it is his turn and he doesn't know how to respond.

"I never wanted to leave you." Zhang Mingyang took a deep breath, calmed down and started his performance.

He was just a little flustered by Xu Duanran's sudden true feelings, but now he has completely recovered.

"From the day we met when we were children, we were destined to be the closest people in the world, so no matter when, I will never leave you behind.

But as we all grow up, we also need to have our own dreams and efforts. Only in this way can we walk side by side better."

Xu Duanran's eyes were sparkling, and the bad guy in front of him seemed to have changed back to his previous appearance, and the grievances accumulated in the glittering eyes were the past half month.

Zhang Mingyang's breathing was slightly rapid, and he almost failed.

"The brief separation is for a better encounter in the future. When school starts, the two of us will be in Linjiang. Naturally, won't we be able to be together like in the past?"

He said this not only to Xu Duanran, but also to his past self.

Blindly chasing will never lead to any good results in the end.

The human heart is the most fragile thing, and things may change at any time. Only by becoming strong can we have everything we want by our side.

"Okay, wipe your tears. Since when have you cried so much?" Zhang Mingyang took out a few tissues and handed them over.

"You're wrong, I didn't cry!" Under the table, Xu Duanran kicked Zhang Mingyang lightly, and she took the tissue and wiped away her tears.

Seeing Xu Duanran in this state, Zhang Mingyang breathed a sigh of relief. This was the real Miss Xu.

A young lady should be proud and never bow her head. She should not cry and ask others: "Can you please stop leaving me?"

"I said I didn't cry. My makeup was all gone and I turned into a little cat!" Zhang Mingyang seemed to have seen the funniest thing in the world, and his smiling eyes narrowed into slits.

Hearing that the bad guy said her makeup was smudged, Xu Duanran's face instantly turned red, and before he could reply, he picked up the small bag and ran to the bathroom.

When she returned to her seat again, Zhang Mingyang had two plates of steak in front of him, and he was skillfully cutting the steak into small pieces.

When she came back, Zhang Mingyang had just finished cutting.

"You have to cut it yourself to make it taste better!" Xu Duanran happily took the plate, put a piece in his mouth.

"Then don't eat it."

"I don't!"

Help Xu Duanran cut it, and Zhang Mingyang also cut off a piece and put it in his mouth.

Well, as expected, it is still as unpleasant as I remembered, with the taste of technology.

According to Zhang Mingyang's original plan, he should have returned to the computer room to continue working.

But I have to say that he was moved by Xu Duanran at noon today. It would seem a bit cruel to leave Xu Duanran and go back now.

Even if the relationship between men and women is put aside, there should be another more precious relationship between them. Those lies that are half-truths and half-falsehoods, they really should be the closest people in the world.

Why bother to stick to a couple relationship?

Maybe if they give up being lovers in this life and only regard Xu Duanran as his sister, the two of them can get a better ending.

After dinner, Xu Duanran asked Zhang Mingyang to go out with her, but when she got there, she discovered that she was going shopping, and the most outrageous thing was that she was going shopping in a men's clothing store.

Miss, didn’t you say you wouldn’t give me any other birthday gifts besides the watch? Can we keep our word?

Shopping is originally a kind of torture for men, not to mention that this time the person trying on clothes has changed from Xu Duanran to Zhang Mingyang.

When he first walked into the mall, Zhang Mingyang thought the eldest lady wanted to buy clothes for him.

He thought that even if he was tired, it would be pretty good if he could find a place to sit in every store.

Now, he didn't have a chance to rest at all, because he was always trying on clothes.

The eldest lady was still very picky. They were two jackets that were not much different, but in the end she asked him to try them on over and over again.

After trying them on, she felt satisfied with both items, so she simply swiped her card to get them all.

Later, Zhang Mingyang felt that the way the clerk looked at him was wrong, and he probably guessed that he was a pretty boy kept by a rich woman.

Fortunately, Zhang Mingyang inherited some of his mother's beauty, so it doesn't matter if he really wants to be a pretty boy.

One afternoon, Xu Duanran bought a lot of clothes for Zhang Mingyang. Although they were all expensive, they were not as outrageous as the watch in the car.

Lu Xun once said that Chinese people like to reconcile.

Xu Duanran said that he would not accept the watch as a gift, but he would accept it if he changed it into clothes.

After buying clothes, the two of them ran to the Wetland Park to play.

In 2010, the Linjiang Wetland Park was only half completed. The scenery here is beautiful, and most importantly, there are few people.

After half a month of morning exercises, Zhang Mingyang's physical fitness improved a lot. When she came out of the Wetland Park, the eldest lady couldn't stand it anymore. She slumped down on the bench and asked Zhang Mingyang to buy her water.

He laughed at Xu Duanran because he was not strong enough and looked like a little chicken. Xu Duanran wanted to hit him, but he really had no strength left.

Turning a corner, Zhang Mingyang saw a stall selling water and two acquaintances.

The Wetland Park is too big. The four of us were walking around in it just now, but we never met each other.

Just as he was about to say hello, he heard Cui Wan say: "Xu Duanran invited me to her house tonight, and I won't send you back to school in a while."
