When Yu Li came back from paying the bill, she saw Huo Zhenyu sitting at the table with a cold expression, staring at her black screen in a daze. She felt something was wrong, so she quickly stepped forward and took the phone away, and asked carefully: "What's wrong?"

"Have you settled the bill?" Huo Zhenyu did not answer her question.

Yu Li nodded: "It's over."

"How much is it, I'll give it to you." Huo Zhenyu stood up calmly.

Yu Li paused: "No need, just a meal, I have paid..."

"How much?" Huo Zhenyu interrupted her.

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, looked up and broke into his indifferent eyes. Her heart skipped a beat. After a while, she asked, "What happened?"

It was fine just now, but now she suddenly changed her attitude. Did Huo Chen send her a message when she settled the bill? When she thought of this possibility, Yu Li felt dry mouth and sweating faintly when she pinched her phone. She wanted to look at the phone immediately, but she was afraid that it would make him suspicious if it was done too clearly.

Her distracted kung fu, her guilty expression completely fell into Huo Zhenyu's eyes. His hands were tightly clenched, and the veins on his arms burst out, but they were easily concealed by the thick clothes. Apart from the indifference that showed, there was nothing wrong with everything else.

In just a moment, Yu Li had already thought of many possibilities, and these possibilities all pointed to the same result-

He discovered Huo Chen's existence.

Maybe he didn't know who Huo Chen was, but he should have guessed that there was such a man around her.

After struggling, Yu Li whispered: "Let's go out first." There are too many people in the snack bar and it is not suitable for talking.

Huo Zhenyu looked at her calmly, and after a long time, hesitated, he followed her after hesitation. The two walked out of the snack street and walked back to the alley when they met. It was still quiet and suitable for confessing something.

Yu Li stood still and was about to speak when Huo Zhenyu in front of him spoke lightly: "Don't talk here."

Yu Li was stunned.

Huo Zhenyu looked at her side, with a storm of forbearance in her eyes: "Don't be here."

"……good."

The two continued to walk forward, and unknowingly walked into the nearby residential building, and finally stopped at the fitness equipment behind the residential building.

It was noon, and the food was smelling like every household, but there were no one in the yard. Yu Li and Huo Zhenyu stood face to face, and no one spoke for a while.

I don’t know how long it took, Yu Li lowered her head and said, “It’s my fault…”

"Did I do something wrong?" Huo Zhenyu interrupted her.

Yu Li shook her head quickly: "No, you did nothing wrong... I'm sorry for you."

Huo Zhenyu's eyes turned red, and his fingertips pinched into his palms, and he could feel warm and moisturized. He was quiet for a long time before he asked hoarsely: "Why?"

Yu Li doesn't know how to answer.

"We didn't quarrel or disagree. Why did you break up with me? You even went to search for ways to break up. Why are you afraid that I would bother you?!" Huo Zhenyu restrained for a long time, but still revealed a trace of anger and grievance.

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that he was because of the search record... Thinking that he didn't know Huo Chen's existence, she felt a little bit of gratitude in her heart.

However, this thanks soon disappeared because the corners of his red eyes. She struggled for a long time between breaking up directly and coaxing the person first, but in the end she chose to cut the mess with a quick knife.

"I'm sorry." She lowered her head.

Hearing these three words, Huo Zhenyu was completely discouraged. He laughed mockingly and looked at her disappointedly: "I will give you another last chance. You can find a reason to fool me. No matter how ridiculous it is, I believe it."

Yu Li's eyes turned red, and she spoke in a pleading tone: "Huo Zhenyu, don't do this." She hid in her heart as a treasure-like man, and shouldn't beg anyone, including her, in such a humble tone.

"Then don't tell me this!" Huo Zhenyu gritted his teeth, calmed down after losing his temper, and tried to help her rationalize her behavior. "Is it because of the text message I sent to my uncle? Or who forced you to break up with me?"

Yu Li bit her lip and shook her head slightly. After a moment, she said carefully: "It has nothing to do with other people. You are very good, but the time is not right now. Why don't you find me again in a year and we will continue dating?"

Huo Zhenyu smiled angrily: "Yu Li, are you kidding me? Do you think dating is a game for playing house? Now you don't want to play anymore, so just keep the game until you want to play."

Yu Li didn't dare to say anything.

"Answer me, why do you want to break up with me?" Huo Zhenyu asked again, "When is not suitable for us, I don't accept these reasons. Give me one to convince me, otherwise I will pretend that I have never heard of it."

Yu Li closed her eyes and opened her face for a while: "I think it's boring to fall in love, I don't want to talk anymore."

Huo Zhenyu's eyes became even redder, and his voice was secretly hoarse: "What did you say?"

"I don't think it's interesting," Yu Li lowered her head and didn't dare to look at his face, because she wouldn't hold on at first sight, "I don't want to talk to you anymore."

After she said that, Huo Zhenyu stopped moving, and she didn't dare to look up, but just stared at the ground quietly. After a while, Huo Zhenyu's chilly voice sounded above her head: "You look at my eyes and speak."

Yu Li pinched her fingers, calmed down for a long time, and raised her head and met his indifferent eyes: "I think it's boring to fall in love, I don't want to continue."

The weather is dry and cold, and there is unmelted snow piled up on the roadside, and it is dirty and hard and frozen into a lump. It is still quiet near the residential building, and occasionally you can only hear the sound of someone cooking.

After Yu Li said this, Huo Zhenyu lost his reaction. At every quiet moment, Yu Li's heart was like it was frozen in an ice hole, without any wounds, but it hurts very much.

After not waiting for Huo Zhenyu's response, Yu Li said sorry again, lowered her head and turned around and left, but Huo Zhenyu grabbed her: "Xiaoyu, as long as you say you have a temporary intention, I can stop asking why, let's just pretend that this has never happened."

He softened his voice, Yu Li almost couldn't hold back her tears and dared not look at him anymore. She gritted her teeth and shook his hand away, and trotted all the way. After she left, Huo Zhenyu stood there in a daze, not moving for a long time.

Yu Li lowered her head and ran to the school. When she was about to reach the school gate, she plunged into a certain embrace. She was stunned for a moment and looked up and met a pair of familiar eyes.

Huo Chen was going to say hello to her, but when he saw that her eyes were red, he immediately frowned: "Who bullied you?"

Yu Li said, "When you were nineteen years old, are you very sad when I told you to break up?"

Huo Chen paused, and recalled the rough thing and suddenly realized: "At 19, I saw your search record?"

"...Hmm." Yu Li was about to cry again.

Huo Chen hugged her comfortably: "It's okay, I don't blame you."

"You must blame me," Yu Li's voice was very dull, "I couldn't think of any reason to break up. Finally, I said something very bad, you will definitely not forgive me."

"Yes, no matter what Xiaoyu does, I will forgive me," Huo Chen let go of her and pinched her cheek. "Don't worry, I'm not young anymore, and this blow can still withstand it."

"Really?" Yu Li looked at him with a gaze.

Huo Chen was just comforting her, but he didn't expect that she would ask seriously. After clearing her throat, he vaguely said: "It's definitely okay."

Yu Li looked at him disappointedly, rubbed her eyes and asked, "What are you doing for me?"

"I originally wanted to take you to the supermarket, but you didn't look like you were in the mood, so I still didn't go." Huo Chen chuckled.

Yu Li felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry for you, I'm making things difficult for you," Huo Chen sighed lightly, "but it's better to solve it earlier, so as to avoid getting more and more difficult in the future."

He paused after saying that, "I remember that I didn't go to the exam the next day, and asked the fat man to call you just to force you over and reconcile. Don't you know? Otherwise, you will be entangled, and everyone will be tired at that time."

Yu Li pursed her lips and nodded, looking in a low mood.

Huo Chen was amused and laughed: "Okay, am I standing in front of you now? It means I have digested this matter a long time ago. Maybe I was a little unhappy at that time, but Isn't it still fine now?"

Yu Li knew the truth, but whenever she thought of her 19-year-old boyfriend begging her with red eyes, her little heart kept trembling and even her breathing became depressed.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Huo Chen simply held her hand and walked out. Yu Li followed her for a while before she knew it, "Where will you take me?"

"Are you not going to take the journalism exam tomorrow afternoon? I'll take you to review. If you review it a few more times, you won't have the energy to think about anything else." Huo Chen replied.

Yu Li was speechless for a moment, and finally followed him. Huo Chen said that he would take her to review, so he really took her to review for the afternoon. The key that the teacher had drawn was printed on a piece of paper. Under his supervision, Yu Li tossed and turned, and after memorizing it, he had to write it down. He repeated it several times. When he returned to the dormitory, Yu Li was exhausted and fell on the bed and fell asleep.

She said she had fallen asleep, but she didn't sleep well. She had some messy dreams all night. When she dreamed that Huo Zhenyu and Huo Chen were in a row, she suddenly woke up and opened her eyes and found that her phone was vibrating.

It was a fat man's call.

Yu Li remembered what Huo Chen said last night and hanged up the phone with gritted teeth. The fat man had no intention of stopping. After being hung up, he continued to call. After repeated several times, she still answered. Before she could speak from the other side, she took the initiative: "No matter what you say, I won't go, but tell Huo Zhenyu that if he dares not take the exam, I will never forgive him in my life!"

The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and Huo Zhenyu's hoarse voice came from: "Little Fish, I'm sick."

Yu Li: “…”

"38 degrees, my head hurts. Can you take me to the hospital?" Huo Zhenyu whispered in a low voice.

Yu Li's voice tense: "Let the fat man go with you."

"...Please." His voice was muffled, and it sounded like he was about to cry.
