The four people sitting at the same table eating, Zhao Lan turned a blind eye to the matter outside the window and was devoted to eating his own meals. He couldn't control those things about the adults.

Zhuo Ziyuan felt guilty and didn't know how to face Tong Xue.

Tong Xue especially wanted to forget the cruel man in front of her, but she couldn't help but approach him. She had no plans to come to Longgu. Liu Yang said that Zhuo Ziyuan would come too, so she agreed to come. She felt very conflicted.

Li Xinyuan is the most active. She let Tong Xue eat this one and pick up something for Zhuo Ziyuan. At this time, she showed her cheerful and quirky nature.

"Sister Tong Xue, why do I feel that you are not very happy today?"

"There is no unhappiness? I have a lot of fun." Tong Xue said stubbornly.

"Oh~ I understand." Li Xinyuan said, and secretly said something next to Tong Xue's ear.

"Damn girl, what are you talking about?" Tong Xue blushed and looked at Zhuo Ziyuan, and cursed with a smile.

"If it weren't for that, then you must be unhappy. Didn't my brother say that you did a good job in the exam? You should be happy."

"Yes, I did a good job in the exam. If you have any unhappy things, don't think about it."

"Then you ignored us all this morning." Li Xinyuan didn't believe it.

"Hasn't I been playing with my classmates all the time?"

"Yuan'er, are you finished? Have a good meal, don't eat, don't you understand." Zhuo Ziyuan interrupted Li Xinyuan, you have so many things to do.

"Hmph, I didn't see you even when I was having dinner at home." Li Xinyuan pulled the food.

After lunch, it was too hot and everyone dispersed. Some still went to play the next project in groups, some brought the restaurant to blow air conditioning, and some girls were walking around hand in hand.

Zhuo Ziyuan accompanied Li Xinyuan and Zhao Lan to the lakeside. They chose the largest tree, of course, the shade was the largest, very close to the lake water, and you could clearly feel the coolness conveyed by the lake water. There was also a bench, which happened to be within the shade.

Under the shade of the tree, Li Xinyuan set up a painting board, Zhao Lan helped, and Zhuo Ziyuan lay on the lawn and closed his eyes to rest, so comfortable.

Gradually, the female students also appeared by the lake in groups of three or three. Seeing a girl who was traveling with them actually painting here, they also came over to watch for a while. Tong Xue and two other girls came over with each other. The other two classmates went to watch Li Xinyuan's paintings. Tong Xue came to Zhuo Ziyuan and kicked him.

Zhuo Ziyuan opened his eyes and saw that it was Tong Xue. He wanted to stand up immediately, but he couldn't stop and fell down again.

"Puchi." Tong Xue looked at Zhuo Ziyuan's nervous look and felt relieved. He didn't care about himself at all, "What are you nervous?"

"No, it's just that the sun is a little dizzy and I can't stop for a while." Zhuo Ziyuan, who got up again, said.

"You open your eyes and tell lies, accompany me to sit there." Tong Xue said as she walked out of the protection of this big tree.

Zhuo Ziyuan looked around and was really talking lies with his eyes open. They stood under the shade of the trees, where did the sun shine?

Following Tong Xue to another tree without anyone else, Tong Xue sat generously on the grass and leaned against the trunk, and Zhuo Ziyuan also sat next to the trunk.

"Zhuo Ziyuan, why don't you want to go to Kyoto?" After waiting for a while, Tong Xue looked at the lake not far away, and finally started what she had always wanted to say.

"That city is not suitable for me." Zhuo Ziyuan sighed.

"Zhuo Ziyuan, do you really have no feelings for me?" Tong Xue turned her head and looked at Zhuo Ziyuan's eyes.

Zhuo Ziyuan looked at her and couldn't answer. He didn't know how to speak so that he could not hurt the girl in front of him, although he knew that he had hurt her.

"If I go to Dongxing with you, can you try to accept me?" Tong Xue continued to ask.

Zhuo Ziyuan organized language in his heart, how should he answer?

"As long as you are willing, I can ask my dad to find someone to find a relationship. I will go to Dongxing with you. Even if it doesn't work, then I will repeat the year. I will go to you next year." Tong Xue was a little hysterical, with a crying voice in her voice.

"Tong Xue, I know your feelings, and I also appreciate your favor."

"I don't want your thanks, I want you to like me too." Tong Xue shouted excitedly without waiting for Zhuo Ziyuan to speak, and tears couldn't stop flowing down. She knew that the conversation would end and they would end. There was no possibility anymore. She also fantasized about not saying it out loud and keeping a seed, but she didn't want to deceive herself.

"Tong Xue, after listening to me, okay? You are very good, very good, not saying that you are beautiful, have good grades, have better character, and never rely on your own family background. If you say that someone doesn't like you, no one will believe it, but liking is not love, do you understand? I can feel everything you have done over the past few years, and I am also very moved. If you say that I don't feel anything about you at all, that's a lie, but I can't say that I love you because of this feeling, and I'm even worse. You give up your dream because of me. This is very irresponsible. This is not the love I imagined."

"Then what love you imagined is like?" said the words. Even though shed tears, Tong Xue was so strong that she wanted to end this relationship.

"It's not because of being moved, not for repayment, nor for money and interests, it's just because of being moved, it's just because I like you, you like me, it's that simple, pure." Zhuo Ziyuan looked at the lake and said in a longing.

After hearing Zhuo Ziyuan's words, Tong Xue smiled self-deprecatingly, "Simple? Do you know why I like you?"

Zhuo Ziyuan shook his head.

"There is no reason, I just like it. I remember that at the beginning I was a little disgusted with you because you snatched my honor."

"I'm really sorry, I'm unintentional." Zhuo Ziyuan shrugged easily.

"Later, once I was reading English in the morning next to the playground. I saw you running in the morning. In the sunshine, you ran on the playground and kept running. Somehow, I became fascinated by it and couldn't extricate myself from now on. Whether I met you or later, I didn't pay much attention to boys. But after that, you were like it was engraved in my mind and could not erase it. I looked forward to seeing you on the playground every day. If I didn't see you one day, I was worried if you were sick or something happened. I hope that one day you can find the me who was paying attention to you quietly. I was worried that one day you would find that quiet me who was watching you.

, After that, I took the initiative to come to you, pester you with a stern face, and began to find various excuses to approach you. The closer you get to you, the more I understand you, the more I feel unable to extricate myself. Even if you later said that you didn’t talk about boyfriends and girlfriends in high school, I knew you were rejecting it, but I couldn’t do it, because I can’t stand seeing you every day and pretending to be very ordinary. I hope my persistence will move you, and I hope to live in your heart one day. Gradually, I got used to this state, which is great."

After pausing for a while, Tong Xue looked at Zhuo Ziyuan and asked back, "Why do you think I like you?"

"It must be my heartbeat."

"Yes, I'm moved, but you don't, what's the use? Do you really think you can find the love you want?"

"It should be possible." Zhuo Ziyuan answered uncertainly.

"Do you know, I have never been jealous of other girls since I grew up, because others are either not as beautiful as me or as smart as me, but after I met you, I began to be jealous of the two girls."

"You are talking about Yuan'er, she is just my sister." Zhuo Ziyuan could only think of Li Xinyuan, not knowing who the other person Tong Xue was talking about was.

"Sister? Even if you are a sister, you can still spend time with you, right?" Tong Xue smiled bitterly.

"What about the other one, you are not talking about Zhao Lan, are you? This joke is unstoppable."

"I don't know who she is yet. Those portraits you painted are so realistic, so vivid, so vivid. Can you tell me who she is?"

Looking at Tong Xue looking at his eyes, Zhuo Ziyuan couldn't speak out that the little girl in his dream. He couldn't bear to be so perfunctory about this brave girl, a girl who was kind to him with his heart and soul. This was the first time he had met in two lives.

But Zhuo Ziyuan couldn't tell her that this was his daughter in the previous life. She took a deep breath and finally summarized, "She is my lover in the previous life."

Tong Xue heard his sincerity, but it made her even more confused.

"Zhuo Ziyuan, you can draw a secondary painting for me, just as giving me a graduation gift, okay?"

"I haven't painted it for a long time, I don't know how it was?" Zhuo Ziyuan was not rude this time. Since he completed his daughter's portrait, he has rarely painted. He painted it once occasionally, and it is also the scenery he painted. The scenery is really not true. Only you know it, but the person you painted is different. At least you have to let others recognize who is painting at a glance.

Tong Xue didn't say anything, but stared at him quietly, making Zhuo Ziyuan feel a little restless, "Okay, okay, I'll just draw it for you."

"Then let's go now. After talking to you, I feel much better."

Although Li Xinyuan's painting was not good, she could only retreat under Tong Xue's strong gaze and gave it to Zhuo Ziyuan. Zhuo Ziyuan asked Tong Xue to sit on the bench and look at the lake, but Tong Xue was unwilling to do so, and her eyes kept looking at Zhuo Ziyuan's direction.

While painting, Zhuo Ziyuan looked at Tong Xue's stubborn and affectionate eyes for the first time. For such a good girl, she failed her so much. Is she really wrong?

While painting, he remembered the conversation he had just talked with Tong Xue, and also the little things he had done over the years, the little things she had found for some clumsy excuses to approach him, the anxious waiting for news at the door of the police station, and the girl who immediately rushed towards him when he saw him appear.

Gradually, all the pictures turned into a beautiful girl, wearing a ponytail, sitting on a bench by the playground, holding a book in her hand, looking at herself, smiling, smirking, and silly.

Zhuo Ziyuan seemed to have returned to the night when he was painting his daughter's portrait. He was completely immersed in his own world. The classmates around him walked, and then came, and then walked. Tong Xue got up several times to see how he was painting, but Zhuo Ziyuan didn't feel it at all.

After drawing a painting for an hour and a half, Zhuo Ziyuan was very satisfied with the painting in front of him. This should be the pinnacle work outside the portrait of his daughter. Tong Xue in the painting was green, moving and infatuated. He couldn't help but write down the signature on the corner, the infatuated person and signed his own name.

When Tong Xue saw this painting, she couldn't help but cry. She saw that Zhuo Ziyuan was not the one she was today. Although there were benches and big trees, she still saw that Zhuo Ziyuan painted the one who was waiting for her foolishly on the side of the playground. At this moment, she knew that no matter what, she still left traces in his heart.

The students who stayed to watch didn't understand why the class monitor cried. Although this painting was very realistic, there was no need to cry.

Li Xinyuan was secretly jealous. Zhuo Ziyuan had painted her portrait, but she had never painted it so engrossed. Humph, one day...

Zhuo Ziyuan was inexplicably entangled. He didn't know what was wrong with him. His daughter's painting was because of longing. What is the reason for this painting? Missing would definitely not be the case. Could it be that he really had a love affair? He had no way to understand.
