Chapter 44: Being Caught

 "Where are you?" Ling Yeshen asked on the phone.

Hutao: "Well, I'm sitting by the West Lake. I don't want to go for a run."

Ling Yeshen: "Wait, I'll come find you."

After hanging up the phone, Hutao looked at the calm lake and thought about her relationship with Ling Yeshen.

Since his confession that night, she has not made any response.

She doesn’t know how to fall in love, and she doesn’t know her future, so she doesn’t dare to give anyone an answer.

Ling Yechen found her quickly.

Winter nights are very cold, and you can see layers of fog rising up from the lake under the street lights.

Seeing Hutao sitting alone by the lake in a daze, Ling Yeshen frowned, and it could be seen that he was a little angry.

"Why are you sitting here? Isn't it cold?" Ling Yeshen's voice suddenly sounded.

Hutao turned around and found him standing behind her.

Standing there coolly with his hands in his pockets.

Hu Tao said: "It's a bit cold. I want to go back. Will you go back?"

Ling Yechen nodded and said: "Well, let's go back."

Hu Tao stood up and walked to Ling Yeshen.

Ling Yechen suddenly reached out and took her hand, wrapped her cold hand in his big hand, and then put it into his pocket.

A warm current spreads from fingers to fingertips.

Hutao struggled slightly, then let Ling Yeshen grab her hand.

She felt that it was indeed warm.

The two were just walking side by side.

But a familiar voice sounded from behind: "Let me just say there is something wrong with them. How can they be normal if they are both holding hands?"

Chen Wenxuan's voice came from behind.

Then came Jessica's voice: "It's normal to hold hands when we're in love, otherwise don't hold my hand in the future."

The two stopped, turned around, and saw four people standing under a tree not far away.

Well, at first glance, it feels like I have been hiding there for a long time.

Hu Tao's face suddenly turned red and she quickly broke her hand away from Ling Yeshen.

Maybe this time I was really embarrassed and rushed away, so I broke away as soon as I could.

Ling Yechen was very unhappy.

This was the first time that the two of them held hands so deliberately, and they didn't expect to be disturbed by these people behind them.

"What are you doing?" Ling Yechen said first.

Because when they turned around, the three people behind them were petrified, and they still didn’t know how to face Ling Yechen’s torture.

Mu Chen was relatively calm and replied: "I'm following you."

It was a very direct answer. Chen Wenxuan was so angry. How could he answer like this?

Listening to his brother's tone just now, it was 100% unpleasant.

With his brother's character, one never knows when he will encounter his brother's revenge.

Chen Wenxuan quickly explained: "No, no, we just passed by and bumped into each other."

Hutao quickly explained: "We have nothing to do, I have to go back first, you can play."

After saying that, he ran away alone.

They didn’t even say hello when Jessica came on board.

Zheng Xiuyan still wanted to call her, say hello, and ask about her and Ling Yechen's situation.

But she disappeared at the intersection after a while.

Ling Yechen glanced at a few people, then turned to follow Hu Tao.

Hu Tao ran very fast and ran back to the rental house in one breath.

Ling Yechen chased her but didn't catch up with her.

When she entered the room and wanted to close the door, Ling Yechen followed her.

"Why are you running? Your feet don't hurt anymore?" Ling Yechen asked as he entered the room and changed his shoes.

Hutao shook his head and said: "It was just a little cold, so I ran back quickly."

Ling Yechen knew that what she said was not the truth.

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Does it put a lot of pressure on you to let them know that the two of us are in a relationship?"

Hutao looked up at him, not expecting him to ask these questions.

She nodded and said: "I don't know, and I don't want to fall in love. You should know that I don't think it's appropriate for us to live together like this. How about you move to your hotel?"

Ling Yechen's heart suddenly dropped.

"Why? Tell me what you are unhappy about, and I will satisfy you. Do you hate me?" Ling Yechen asked.

Hu Tao shook her head, sat directly on the bed and looked at him and said: "No, I don't hate you, I just don't know how to fall in love and don't want to fall in love."

Ling Yeshen smiled bitterly and then said: "I know what you are thinking. It's okay. It's okay not to fall in love. We can get married directly in the future."

"Don't stress, I'll move out tomorrow."

Then neither of them spoke.

After washing, Hutao started typing, while Ling Yechen took the computer to deal with hotel affairs.

After the lights were turned off, the room became even quieter.

Since that night when it snowed, Ling Yechen has slept peacefully on the floor again.

It's the same tonight, with Hu Tao lying on the bed and Ling Yechen lying on the floor.

Neither of them fell asleep, but neither of them said anything.

A long time passed, so long that Ling Yechen thought she had fallen asleep.

Only then did I hear her say: "I still don't understand the meaning of love and marriage. If my fate is the same as my mother's in the future, then I may not be able to survive."

Hearing these words, Ling Yechen felt relieved.

Yes, he understands her thoughts.

He has been to her home and had close contact with her living environment.

He felt sorry for her loneliness, so he wanted to bring her under his protection.

He knew and had seen that she didn't even have a single close friend at school, so he brought her into his circle intentionally or unintentionally.

Let her know everyone he knows.

Then Hutao said: "You're pretty good, I don't hate you."

Ling Yechen listened quietly and did not reply.

Then I heard Hu Tao say: "To be honest, I don't like boys very much, and I especially don't believe in them. I only believe in myself, so I feel that love and marriage are meaningless to me."

Hutao fell asleep while talking.

The next day, the opening ceremony of the sports meeting will be held, and all members must participate.

Hu Tao and Ling Yechen separated and returned to their respective classes.

The morning activities did not end until 12 noon.

Various competitions started in the afternoon.

Although it was stipulated that students who were not participating in the competition should also be present as cheerleaders, but Hu Tao did not go.

Recently she signed a contract for another novel.

She has to work hard to code and make money.

She rarely goes out to set up stalls now.

Not only did she earn a little, but the weather was too cold and she was afraid that she would have to spend a lot of money if she got sick.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Yechen came back and heard that their basketball team had a game in the morning.

"Did you win?" Hutao asked.

Ling Yechen nodded and said: "We win, the basketball team will have dinner together tonight, and I'll come back and take a shower. By the way, we agreed to move out today, but maybe it won't work. I have to leave later, and I don't have time to move. I'll try again tonight."

Just one night."

Well, Hu Tao is soft-hearted, everyone has said so, and she has no objection.

Ling Yechen left after taking a shower and came back around one o'clock in the morning.

Hutao vaguely heard him talking to her, but she was too sleepy and didn't hear what he said clearly.
