The two high school classmates sat half-faced for a few seconds. Yang Jingxing nodded: "I like it."

Tao Meng lowered her gaze and nodded, more seriously than Yang Jingxing, and asked again: "When will it start?"

Yang Jingxing seemed to be thinking.

Tao Meng said: "I'm not asking. If it's inconvenient, it's okay if you don't want to say it."

Yang Jingxing took a breath: "It's not... you said, life is linear. If you asked me when I started to like you, maybe fate started from the first meeting. I didn't ask you to be my girlfriend.

That was the day I started to like you."

Tao Meng nodded cautiously and slowly, as if thinking, and then looked at Yang Jingxing: "But you have to be sure that you like her before you can become a boyfriend and girlfriend."

Yang Jingxing nodded, took a moment, and said yes.

Tao Meng deduced gently: "That is to say, by that time, you had already given up and started a new one..."

Yang Jingxing obviously wanted to think. Tao Meng didn't rush him, and even looked at Yang Jingxing from time to time with calm eyes, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

It was estimated that almost half a minute passed, and Yang Jingxing finally hummed, as if he felt it was not sincere enough, and added: "It sounds like letting go, but in fact... it's betrayal."

Tao Meng silently twitched the corners of her mouth, then straightened her upper body, like a little lazier, and breathed along.

Yang Jingxing said: "That's why I came here shamelessly, hoping to get your forgiveness."

Tao Meng twitched the corner of her mouth again: "It's not that serious. I was a little angry before I said that. It's not actually a betrayal. I just didn't make it clear at the time. I don't need to forgive, and I didn't in the first place...

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "No, when we first separated, I had the thought that as long as I persisted and worked hard, I shouldn't give up like that. I thought about it, but failed to do it. This is betrayal. You are right.

"

Tao Meng seemed surprised by Yang Jingxing's decisiveness. She was probably afraid of what this person was going to say, so she whispered when she asked, "Why? Is it because I didn't contact you."

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "No, it's my own reasons."

Tao Meng really tries to find a way out for the other person, and then comments: "You are too lonely."

Yang Jingxing still shook his head: "No, there are so many classmates, friends, teachers, and my parents come here often... I just can't stand the test, and I am not as dedicated and loyal to my relationship as I thought. There is no need to make excuses for this."

Tao Meng entered a state of imagination, in a ladylike posture, but her eyes were absent-minded, although she seemed to be looking at the table, and then she sighed softly: "I am also responsible."

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "You didn't, it's not me who said nice things... Do you remember, I said last time that even if we didn't separate that time, I would probably make bigger mistakes later. Your father is right."

"The hypothesis is not valid!" Tao Meng suddenly raised the decibel level because she saw through Yang Jingxing: "You haven't forgiven my father at all! You are still complaining about what I said!"

So he was used to being playful and smiling, but he couldn't gain trust at critical moments. Yang Jingxing could only try his best: "What I said today is the truth. I don't blame your father..."

Tao Meng understood and shouted a little: "Because you never cared about me?" The sudden exertion caused her breathing to intensify. When her nose moved, a butterfly effect started, her lips and eyelashes moved together, and tears immediately fell down.

Yang Jingxing looked unmoved.

Tao Meng turned into an excited monitor who shed tears: "You said it last time, I remember everything you said last time... Then why do we have to meet again this time! Why didn't you say sorry last time?"

Yang Jingxing was speechless, but he seemed to have said sorry last time.

Tao Meng was not as patient as before: "You tell me."

Yang Jingxing couldn't tell.

After a stalemate, Tao Meng suddenly stood up and turned his back. It turned out that the nanny had come to collect the dishes, and her movements were quick and smooth.

Tao Meng turned around and said, "Come here, there is food here." He said in a very normal tone.

Yang Jingxing could do this. He stood up immediately and followed Tao Meng towards the bar.

Standing outside the bar, Tao Meng put her hands on it and looked inside, a bit like a student waiting for food at the window. In addition to wine, there was indeed a lot of food inside the bar, such as chocolate candies, biscuits and so on.

But Tao Meng didn't say anything, so Yang Jingxing could only watch. After watching for a while, he said, "How about I go back first and call you later."

Tao Meng shook her head: "...go to my room." She was very gentle.

Yang Jingxing is so brave, he really follows me.

This room is not much smaller than the living room, and Tao Meng said gently: "Sit down."

Yang Jingxing sat down at the table. There was letter paper on the table. The pinyin of Tao Meng's name in gold foil was much larger than the name of the hotel. Damn capitalism.

Tao Meng sat down on the other side and commented: "I was a little...excited just now, don't mind."

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "You are right to ask, why do I want to meet you... Tao Meng, we separated quite suddenly at that time, and the last meeting was also very short. I have a lot of things that I haven't said clearly..."

Tao Meng nodded in support: "Go ahead."

In fact, Yang Jingxing did not stop: "To make a long story short, I actually hope that through this time, we can get to a normal state through this time, rather than making an agreement. The main thing is to stop worrying about the past, or worrying about it..."

Tao Meng's eyes were a little uncontrollable, but she didn't speak.

But Yang Jingxing understood, so he became even more humble: "You are a person who values ​​emotions. Maybe you felt that you were forced to separate like that, and then I must have disappointed you...right?"

Tao Meng looked at Yang Jingxing, hesitated for a moment and then nodded slightly.

Yang Jingxing continued: "So when you said betrayal, I think this word is not an exaggeration. In fact, I was very touched. This shows that you care about our agreement and our feelings..."

Tao Meng's eyelashes trembled, but she did not deny it.

Yang Jingxing continued: "But it's not good to be too emotional. Life itself is the most important. When I knew you were coming to study, I was really happy for you. This is how I know Tao Meng. Tan Dong also guessed that you are

I really want to scold him for enrolling in school through donations. Tao Meng has always been excellent from junior high school to high school, and his college entrance examination scores were all bought with money!?"

Tao Meng is generous: "I don't care about this kind of doubt, just be yourself."

Yang Jingxing smiled: "I know... Look, you have a younger brother now. Others may have other ideas, but I know that you regard yourself as your own younger brother. It doesn't mean anything if you haven't changed diapers..."

Tao Meng smiled and slowly glanced at Yang Jingxing.

Yang Jingxing continued to work hard: "I know Tao Meng will definitely love this younger brother very much. Although the name on the alumni record was wrong, it doesn't mean anything..."

Tao Meng strongly explained: "It was changed later! Tao Yunqi was born by his mother, Bo Rong was born by his grandma later, and Xiaohu drew lots by himself when he was one month old!"

Yang Jingxing slapped himself: "Slap mouth, Tao Meng has been wronged."

Tao Meng pouted slightly with a straight face, as if she was not satisfied with this attitude.

Yang Jingxing continued: "You have a younger brother to love and care for, a grandmother to take care of, and studies that are so hard, and a father to help in the future, and such a big Huacheng Group... these are the most important things to you, and this is your life.

Although you are a little tired, you will be very happy and fulfilled. Life cannot be perfect, and there are always shortcomings. In fact, you have done your best, and it was me who was wrong."

In fact, Tao Meng became cold-faced after hearing this, but she still asked Yang Jingxing to finish and confirm again: "You think so?"

Yang Jingxing nodded.

Tao Meng added two more words: "You think so too?"

Yang Jingxing was about to analyze, but he didn't dare to act too stupid and had to answer as soon as possible: "I want to..."

Tao Meng did not need to answer: "So you just talk about friends with others, and then tell me that those are not important."

Yang Jingxing explained: "I'm not saying it's not important. Of course it was important when we were still together. But it's different now. For you now, the past shouldn't be important. This is the choice you should make.

."

Tao Meng asked: "Why do you help me make a choice?"

Yang Jingxing was speechless.

Tao Meng softened again: "I understand what you mean... This is the purpose of your meeting. Please make it clear."

Yang Jingxing nodded.

Tao Meng confirmed: "Because you are with someone else, so you must make it clear."

Yang Jingxing actually dared to nod.

Tao Meng thought about it again and said, "Since this is the reason, can we talk about you and Qi Qingnuo?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "Forget it, it's awkward."

Tao Meng reasoned: "I think I have the right to know the cause and effect!"

Yang Jingxing took a deep breath: "...Actually, that's it. This is my problem and my fault. Qi Qingnuo didn't do anything, and you didn't do anything either."

Tao Meng nodded: "Then there's nothing that can't be said."

Yang Jingxing was simply impressed: "...I think it's meaningless."

Tao Meng said: "I will judge for myself whether it makes sense or not."

Yang Jingxing was convinced: "What do you want to know?"

Tao Meng began to think, thought seriously, and thought hard. After thinking for a long time, her lips moved slightly a few times, but they did not open. Instead, tears fell first.

Yang Jingxing called his name: "Tao Meng."

Tao Meng wiped her tears: "It's okay... you guys, it should be June or July... you can go!"

Yang Jingxing didn't move.

"Let's go!" Tao Meng shouted with her mouth wide open, but she kept silent for a moment. After shutting up, she went to pick up the landline phone next to her and dial a short number: "...send Mr. Yang away...um...no need."

After seeing Tao Meng put down the phone, Yang Jingxing stood up and said, "I'm sorry." When he turned around, there was silence all around. The carpet was so soft that he couldn't make any sound when he stepped on it.

In fact, there was no need to send her off. Yang Jingxing still knew the direction when she left Tao Meng's room. However, the nanny still sent her to the elevator door and said goodbye politely.

When he finally returned to the room, it was already past ten o'clock. Yang Jingxing called Kong Chenhe first: "Have you returned to the room?"
