Flowers and trees form a sea, and the fragrance is fragrant.

The warm sunlight shone down from the branches, and it was a good time to take a nap. Surao chose a tree with lush branches and leaves, tapped the tree with her toes, leaned against the trunk, and took out the handkerchief in her sleeve.

Cover your eyes and sleep!

The forest is quiet.

She only heard the sound of the wind, and soon there were sudden footsteps. Surao's ears twitched, but she ignored them, thinking who might have gone astray like her.

Unexpectedly, the footsteps came one after another until they came to her.

Suddenly paused.

"Miss Zhou, stop."

The male voice is calm and resolute, with sharp word breaks, like an unsheathed blade, as cold as ice.

As soon as he arrived, the surrounding temperature dropped a bit.

It was different from Yan Yun's coldness and alienation, but a fierce killing intent. Surao felt the invisible bloody aura from him.

This person is dangerous!

Just as the thought came to an end, a female voice sounded, soft and tactful, with some resentment: "I thought you had made up your mind and never wanted to talk to me again."

This voice...is it Zhou Yin?

Su Rao's eyebrows were slightly raised. From the sounds in the two people's words, she seemed to have bumped into something she shouldn't have bumped into. She restrained her breathing to prevent the people below from noticing.

At this time, it's too late to leave.

She could only hope that the two of them would finish talking and leave quickly so as not to disturb her good sleep.

After a brief silence, the man said, "There's nothing to say."

"Thirteen years have passed, and the first thing you said after returning to Beijing was that you wanted to draw a clear line between you and me?"

Zhou Yin bit his lip, looking at the indifferent back, wanting to take two steps forward, get closer to him, and then get closer.

But she knew that as long as she moved, he would definitely retreat.

Three steps, these three steps are the most suitable distance for them now.

"Xie Yin, why don't you dare to look at me?" Lan

Your surname is Xie?

Surao's first reaction was the Xie family in Shengjing. The relationship between her and Xie family could not be explained in just a few words. She didn't expect to meet them here.

She didn't intend to pry into other people's private affairs, but the place was too clean, and the two of them didn't shy away from talking, so every word went straight into her ears.

When the man heard this, his body trembled slightly, and then he slowly turned around.

His eyes were calm and sharp, staring straight at her.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Zhou Yin's eyes were red, and he looked at him dreamily. His eyebrows were still familiar, but he was more mature than thirteen years ago.

The eyes are deeper and the outlines are clearer.

It was completely different from the flamboyant young man in her memory, but it was so familiar that it almost made her cry, "You have lost a lot of weight."

"Zhou Yin..."

"You've grown taller, almost as I imagined. The wind in the border area must be very cold. I heard that there..."

"Zhou Yin!"

The man interrupted her musings and said word by word: "We broke off the engagement."

There are only five words, each word is heavy.

He was silent for a while, looked at her, and said in a calm and indifferent tone, "The engagement has been broken off. You don't have to do this again. It won't do you any good if others see it."

"Then let them see."

Zhou Yin suddenly broke through his guard and raised his voice with tears in his eyes, "I don't care about my reputation, my reputation, so what are you worried about?"

"Make them laugh."

"Anyway, they laughed behind their backs more than once or twice, a year or two, so what if there were more?"

The man was shocked by her risk-taking look and remained silent for a long time.

Not only she, but also Su Rao was surprised. Although she had only met Zhou Yin a few times, according to her observation, Zhou Yin behaved dignifiedly, was gentle and elegant, and was a well-educated woman from a family.

To be able to make her become like this, it seems that Mr. Xie is really extraordinary to her.

"Why are you doing this..."

After a long time, the man sighed softly, and his tone softened, but he was still angry, "Let it go, old things are gone with the wind, you should look forward... Don't worry your father and brother."

"Don't make them worry..."

Tears welled up in Zhou Yin's eyes, "I was thinking about it like this back then, so they broke off the engagement without telling me, locked me up in the house, and let me live in a muddle for many years."

"Why don't you come and ask me."

"Why did you accept the divorce letter..." Lan

"What if I don't answer?"

The man cruelly tore apart her sweet dream and said in a cold voice: "The Xie family was overthrown. Although they were not implicated, the men in the family have stopped taking the imperial examination and have no chance of an official career. Under such circumstances, what can I do if I keep the marriage certificate?"

"

"Are you going to have to endure hardship when marrying me?"

"I do..."

Zhou Yin said anxiously.

"I don't want to!"

The man said indifferently, "Zhou Yin, you and I are not children and have no rights or qualifications. If you marry me, your tribe, father and brother will be humiliated because of you, and you will suffer criticism and ridicule from the world, and I don't want to be involved.

Others." Lan

"Let it go, let the past be in the past, it will be better for you and me."

He said that he was about to leave in a big stride. How could Zhou Yin be willing to let him leave? He tried his best to avoid her. After leaving this time, he didn't know when he would see her again next time.

She rushed forward and hugged him from behind.

Hold on tight.

I burst into tears.

"Xie Xiaotang, Xie Xiaotang, don't leave. Let me finish what I'm saying."

The man's hand that was about to open her hand suddenly paused. After thinking about it, it hung weakly by her side. Zhou Yin felt his acquiescence and held her tighter.

"When I was fifteen years old, my father wanted to propose marriage to me, but I refused. He said that you would never come back, and told me not to have any wishful thinking."

"I'm seventeen years old. Women of the same age have already married. I'm the only one waiting to be married. The ladies in Shengjing laugh at me privately. I don't care. I know the Xie family is here and you will definitely come back."

"When I was eighteen years old, my cousin wanted to marry me. Fu's betrothal gift arrived outside the gate of my Zhou family. My father and brother wanted to respond, but I refused to do so. That time, I cut my neck with the scissors, and the scar is still there to this day."

"In the next two years, the Fu family and my family were at odds, and I never left the house."

"They scolded me for being unfilial, but I didn't care. They arranged this marriage in order to win over the Xie family, but later broke off the marriage in order to distance themselves from each other."

"It was a joke before and after me, and I couldn't help it."

"Thirteen years ago, I failed to stand up and accompany you through the most difficult time. I was a member of the Gu Nian clan, my father and brother. I was the best in everything. I was the most well-behaved girl in Shengjing City. I taught, applied medicine, and worked.

All things considered..." Lan

"As they wished, I have been Miss Zhou for nearly twenty years."

Xie Yin's hands in his sleeves were clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white.

Zhou Yin didn't realize it, choked up, then gathered all his emotions, let go of him, took two steps back, and solemnly said: "I couldn't help myself back then, this hug is to repay the friendship between you and me as childhood sweethearts."

"I just want to ask you, Xie Xiaotang, do you still want to marry me?"

The atmosphere froze for a moment.

The man was stiff and frowned. Zhou Yin looked at his back and said calmly: "I am by no means a stalker. I have been waiting for many years. I just want to give myself an explanation. As long as you refuse, I will never bother you again."
