Chapter 983 Xiaoyue’s Answer!
Mo Shaochen stopped his steps on his way to the ward...
He looked slightly at Ye Chenyu's ward. From his angle, he couldn't see inside, and naturally, he couldn't see him inside.
Beichen took Jian Mo and the others to have breakfast. He heard that Ye Chenyu had woken up, so he came to see him.
But he didn't expect to hear Ye Chenyu asking Li Xiaoyue this.
Mo Shaochen frowned slightly, and a vague emotion flashed across his face...
Is it the forbearance under the calmness of many years, or what, he himself can't figure it out at this moment.
Maybe, he knows it.
But at this moment, he can't know it clearly!
The atmosphere in the ward became stagnant, and Mo Shaochen stood there alone in the quiet corridor, extremely lonely.
The soft sunlight projected in from the corridor, stretching Mo Shaochen's shadow long.
He didn't move, didn't go in, and didn't leave...
As if, like Ye Chenyu, he was waiting for Li Xiaoyue's answer.
Li Xiaoyue frowned and looked at Ye Chenyu, trying to see if he was joking or what?
However, his expression was half-smiley, as if he was joking, but it seemed that he could see seriousness in his eyes...
"Ye Chenyu," Li Xiaoyue said, hiding her anger and restlessness, "If you are joking, then, no answer is needed."
Ye Chenyu's smile deepened a little, and he didn't say whether he was joking or not.
"If you are not joking..." Li Xiaoyue paused and lowered her eyes slightly.
Ye Chenyu's eyes became deep at the right time. He asked this question, which was actually mostly a joke, but after asking it, he wanted to know...how would she answer? !
Li Xiaoyue pondered for a long time, and when the air became slow because of waiting, she raised her eyes.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you!" Li Xiaoyue's voice was very light, but it was firm.
"The life of two people should not start with the touch of guilt. No one can withstand the long years of such a life."
Ye Chenyu didn't speak, just waiting for Li Xiaoyue to continue.
"You saved me, I was touched, even angry..." Li Xiaoyue gradually calmed down, "You can let me do many things to soothe my guilt, but this one thing, I can't."
"Because I don't love you? Because I don't like you..." Ye Chenyu's voice was weak after being hurt, "Or because... you have someone you like?"
"Yes, I have someone I like!" Li Xiaoyue pursed her lips, "I like this person, I spent my whole past... I thought it would slowly consume, I thought I would retreat because I was not worthy of him..."
Li Xiaoyue pulled the corner of her mouth in self-mockery, "But, I am unconsciously trying, trying hard to stand by his side!"
Ye Chenyu's eyes gradually deepened, "Shaochen?"
"You know, don't you?" Li Xiaoyue took a deep breath, "Ye Chenyu, maybe I can't stand by his side in this life, but I won't make do with my life just because I can't stand by him..."
After going through so much, she is actually very indifferent.
Even if they can't be together, even if they are alone... She doesn't want to hold on to her past and live in fear with another person.
It hurts others and hurts herself.
"You are moved by guilt towards me, isn't it... not the hope of admiration towards Shaochen?" Ye Chenyu asked pointedly.
Li Xiaoyue looked at Ye Chenyu quietly, and didn't answer in a hurry.
The two looked at each other like this, unable to tell what they felt.
It was as if Ye Chenyu was questioning, and as if he was letting Li Xiaoyue see herself clearly...
"Once, I also thought it was... love under admiration." Li Xiaoyue smiled, although a little bitter, "But you don't understand... when a person is at the lowest point and unbearable, the complex emotions towards a person."
I was afraid that he would look down on me, and I hoped that he would stay by my side to encourage me, and I was torn between wanting and not wanting...
That kind of hesitation, that kind of desire to fear, no one can say it is easy without experiencing it.
"You don't understand even more, working hard for someone... that kind of happiness and motivation under hardship."
Li Xiaoyue gently fluttered her eyelashes, and the self-mockery at the corner of her mouth deepened, "Pain, and happiness..."
"Then why don't you confess to him directly?" Ye Chenyu asked again.
Li Xiaoyue took a breath and lowered her eyes, "Because, I don't want him to feel the same way as I do when facing you now..."
How long can the momentary touch of guilt and sympathy last?
When all the good things are broken, what can be left? !
Silence.
In the ward, Li Xiaoyue stopped talking, and Ye Chenyu did not speak either.
The original "joke" became serious. Whose heart was hurt?
Who was upset again...
Only each other knows!
Secretly mocking himself, Ye Chenyu sighed slightly.
"You just woke up, have a good rest..." Li Xiaoyue gathered her mind and looked at Ye Chenyu, "I'll come to see you later."
After saying that, without waiting for Ye Chenyu to speak, Li Xiaoyue turned around and walked out of the ward...
Whether it was to escape or to relieve her emotions...Li Xiaoyue just wanted to be alone for a while.
But when she left the ward and her eyes fell on the next door, she gradually stopped.
After taking several deep breaths, Li Xiaoyue went to Mo Shaochen's ward.
‘Dongdong! ’
“Enter!”
A calm, elegant voice came, and each word had an indescribable magic power to Li Xiaoyue, who had just revealed her true feelings.
Pushing the door open and walking in, Mo Shaochen stood in front of the window wearing hospital clothes.
The sunlight fell on his body in tiny pieces, a bit hazy and unreal.
Li Xiaoyue stood at the door and forgot her reaction for a moment.
Mo Shaochen just stood there, looking at her quietly. Neither of them spoke, but subconsciously, their eyes were entangled...
Li Xiaoyue pursed her lower lip and hurriedly looked away, "Um... let me see senior brother."
Mo Shaochen smiled lightly, "Stand at the door and watch?"
Li Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed and shook her head hastily, "Is senior brother's injury feeling better?"
"much better……"
The somewhat mechanical dialogue not only failed to alleviate the weird atmosphere in the air, but made it even more awkward.
Mo Shaochen didn't say anything, just looked at Li Xiaoyue being awkward...
But who knew that her awkwardness would lead to Gu Beichen and Jian Mo coming back with breakfast.
"Hey, Xiaoyue, have you finished watching Officer Ye?" Jian Mo asked, not afraid of things getting serious, "Are you after watching Officer Ye and then coming to see Shaochen?!"
"..." Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyue's face turned red due to embarrassment, and then she glared at Jian Mo fiercely.
Jian Mo immediately smiled without any politeness, although she was "bearing it".
"Um...senior brother, have breakfast first, I..."
"You probably haven't eaten either, shall we?" Mo Shaochen said when Li Xiaoyue paused slightly.
Li Xiaoyue shook her head subconsciously, stepped forward and took Jian Mo's hand, "Um, girl, I have something to do, please stay with me..."
She didn't care whether Jian Mo wanted it or not. She didn't even wait for her to react and already pulled her out of the ward...
At the right time, Jian Mo's confused voice came: "Xiao Yue, why do I think you have a guilty conscience?"
The sound became distant as the two people walked, and Mo Shaochen lowered his eyes in time, with a slight smile on his lips.
"What happened during breakfast time?" Gu Beichen sat down beside him, his dark eyes looking at Mo Shaochen deeply.
Mo Shaochen's smile deepened a little, "I overheard something accidentally, but I feel that a man should take the initiative in such matters..."
