After Si Hua left.

  He Ju stood in pce for a long time, as if sidering his retionship with Si Hua, and as if recalling his past.

  He Ju had never received a bit of favor from Su Ran, so when Si Hua rushed towards him so passionately, He Ju's first rea was not to respond.

  Oten by a snake, one is scared at the sight of a well rope for ten years.

  He Ju smiled bitterly, just about to go back, when he saw someoanding not far away, it was Liu Jia.

  He Ju didn't know when Liu Jia had started standing here, but at this moment, he clearly saw the tears in Liu Jia's eyes, and... the things she was holding in her hand, were some nutritional supplements.

  He Ju sighed and walked towards Liu Jia.

  When Liu Jia saw He Ju ing over, she quickly lowered her head and wiped the tears from the ers of her eyes in embarrassment.

  He Ju stood in front of Liu Jia, and Liu Jia alsained her smile, handing the things in her hand to He Ju: "I inally wao e and see Uncle and Aunt, but I didn't expect that there would be guests at your house today, so I won't go up. you please give them my regards?"

  After saying that, Liu Jia turned a, as if afraid that if she said another word, tears would fall.

  He Ju called out to her in time: "Jia Jia."

  Liu Jia stopped iracks, and He Ju walked up to her: "Thank you very much for being willing to e and see my parents."

  Liu Jia's nose was red, and her round face had a pair of long, bck eyeshes with tears hanging on them. Her skin was fair and rosy, probably fr just now. At this moment, she looked stubborn and aggrieved as she looked at He Ju.

  Liu Jia was really cute aiful.

  He Ju had inally wao refuse directly, but looking at Liu Jia's sad appearance, He Ju began to sider how to phrase his words.

  After all...

  Liu Jia hadn't fessed to him, right?

  He couldn't be too direct.

  After careful sideration, He Ju said, "Liu Jia, you are a very good friend of mihank you for ing today. I said I would treat you to a meal when I was in Yunnan, and I haven't fulfilled that promise. How about tomorrow? Do you have time? I'll treat you to a meal?"

  A very good friend,

  He Ju felt that he had already hinted very clearly.

  Liu Jia was a smart girl, she couldn't possibly not hear the hidden meaning in his words.

  But Liu Jia still smiled foolishly at him and said, "Okay! I choose the location for tomorrow?"

  He Ju, Liu Jia khat she didn't have the right to inquire about his private life, but she still wanted...

  to be by your side.

  Liu Jia had just seen Si Hua's back, and girls were very sensitive to each other.

  She almost immediately reized Si Hua as the girl who had apanied He Ju to the movies st time.

  Liu Jia had to admit that the girl was really beautiful, very generous, and her smile was dazzling.

  He Ju had already cut ties with Su Ran, and it seemed that he had no iion of turning back, so...

  No matter who He Ju liked, it was normal.

  As for her... if she were to expose this retionship, it would only make both of their identities awkward, and it would make He Ju more and more distant from Jia Jia.

  In that case, it was better for Jia Jia to py dumb to the end, at least...

  you could still talk to Jia Jia about your feelings and have a meal together as friends.

  He Ju nodded, "Of course."

  Liu Jia smiled, "The's not miss each other tomorrow. I'll send you the time and pce."

  He Ju nodded.

  Liu Jia was about to leave, and He Ju looked at the time, it was already past eight o'clock, almost nine o'clock. Liu Jia lived very far from He Ju's house, and he was worried about her going back alone.

  He Ju: "I'll drive you home."

  Liu Jia wao say that she had driven here and could go back by herself, but...

  Liu Jia had her own thoughts, she wao spend more time with He Ju, even if it was just for a little while.

  So Liu Jia nodded gently.

  He Ju: "Wait here, I'll go get the car keys."

  After speaking, He Ju ran bae.

  He Yu also had a car, and he could drive, but it was just an ordinary SUV.

  Liu Jia stood in pce, w if the wind tonight was a bit strong, she always felt that the sand was a bit blinding, making her uo trol her tears.

  Liu Jia turo look at the vast night, and suddenly thought...

  had she realized it too te? Had she missed the ce to love He Ju?

  She thought that as long as she silently apanied He Ju, as long as He Ju turned back, he would definitely see her.

  But...

  it seemed like she had made a mistake.

  Liu Jia couldn't help it, she covered her mouth and cried out in a choked voice.

  In the past, she had followed behind Su Ran, and could only watch the young and passionate He Ju, tirelessly trying to make Su Ran happy every day, even at the cost of pleasing her.

  Although she felt very unfortable, she had to pretend to be carefree, pretending to cooperate with He Ju in pursuing Su Ran.

  If Su Ran agreed to He Ju, she would accept it, after all, Su Ran was the girl He Ju had liked for ten years.

  If Su Ran agreed to He Ju, He Ju should be moved to tears, right?

  But He Ju's passionate love as a young man did not receive Su Ran's favor.A decade of being childhood sweethearts couldn't overe the disparity between their families' social statuses.

  He Ju was an ambitious man, and so was Su Ran.

  However, the youthful He Ju's ambition was solely focused on Su Ran.

  While the young Su Ran reveled in the adoration of her school days, basking in the pursuit of tless boys.

  To Su Ran, He Ju and those other suitors were fually no different.

  Thus, He Ju never received any special attention from Su Ran.

  But Liu Jia knew all too well that over the years, while the suitors around Su Ran came a, the only one who steadfastly remained by her side was He Ju.

  Liu Jia had never seen anyone more sihan He Ju.

  She envied Su Ran, almost to the point of madness.

  Yet, she could do nothing but stand still, watg the man she liked try so hard to love that girl.

  Later, He Ju finally let go of his obsession with Su Ran, and her boy began to live for himself.

  Liu Jia was happy, wanting to apany him silently, waiting for He Ju to slowly emerge from the shadows, then gradually fess to He Ju, healing the various wounds Su Ran had inflicted on him.

  But she seemed to be moving too slowly.

  She couldn't match Su Ran's youthful beauty, nor could she pete with the boldness of the girl from just before.

  And her affe for He Ju was expressed so subtly, as she was a rather introverted girl...

  In a short time, she really couldn't muster the ce again.

  Liu Jia was on the verge of tears.

  When He Ju returaking Liu Jia to the underground parking lot, Liu Jia had already posed herself.

  g was unattractive, and she didn't want He Ju's occasional thoughts of her to be marred by the sight of her g.

  He Ju's voice was very gentle: "Jia Jia, ime you need me, you just message me, o e all this lus, it's not safe firl to be out at night, better to e out during the day."

  Liu Jia felt warmth in her heart, her voice slightly hoarse but still pleasant: "I know, thank you, He Ju. I'm really sorry for the trouble."

  He Ju waved his hand, smiling as he spoke: "We're cssmates, it's the least I do."

  He Ju was generous in his words, showing no signs of impatience.

  Although Liu Jia felt pained, she still... tio like He Ju just the way he was.

  If the He Ju of the past had eyes a only for Su Ran, with Su Ran being his life,

  Then at this moment...

  He Ju was also Liu Jia's life.

  He Ju would never know that the lovely girl sitting beside him in the passenger seat, her love for him, was han the affe he had for Su Ran for ten years.
