The bright crescent moon hung diagonally in the dark blue sky, and the soft moonlight softened the cold dew-heavy winter night.

"Ruirui, drive carefully!"

Under the moonlight, Li Ruoxi carefully warned Zhen Xinrui, who was sitting in the driver's seat, and then watched her car leave before gently pushing open the carved door of her yard.

As soon as he stepped onto the path paved with soft lawn, a black shadow hugged Li Ruoxi tightly into his arms. His body sluggished slightly, but the familiar and warm breath coming from the arms made Li Ruoxi immediately relax and lean in obediently.

In the arms of the black shadow, let him put his head next to his ear and whisper:

"Xi, you are finally back..."

"Fan, have you been waiting for me in the yard?" Li Ruoxi asked in surprise. Although Fan's embrace was so warm, there was a slight coolness on the face nestled next to her ear, which would only appear if you stayed in the night breeze.

Such a situation! It was the middle of winter, and the frost at night was very biting! And he was waiting for her to come back in the cold. The thought of this made her heart aching...

"Did I scare you just now?" Sensing her worry about him, Xiao Yongfan did not answer, but let go of her slightly and asked softly. The moment he hugged her, she trembled slightly.

Just for a moment! That brief tremor made him reluctant to let go, and he even blamed himself for scaring her. Since he had to wait until the first crescent moon in the afternoon, he was so excited when he saw her back safely that he immediately took it to her without thinking too much.

She held him in her arms.

"No, I feel it's you." Li Ruoxi smiled slightly. She was stunned for just a moment, and Fan could detect it. Being cared about so carefully by him, a sweet and warm feeling arose in her heart.

Hearing her answer, he smiled with satisfaction, but his dark eyes were still gleaming with worry: "Xi, why did you come back so late? Did something happen? And since that phone call in the afternoon, your

The phone has been unable to get through."

"You don't have to be so nervous." Li Ruoxi gently touched Xiao Yongfan's tense face and said with a smile, "I just walked around the school with Ruirui. And the phone ran out of power just after hanging up. If

If anything happens to you, it’s just that the junior students are a little enthusiastic."

To be precise, the junior students were overly enthusiastic and chased her and Ruirui all over the campus. But she didn't plan to tell Fan because she didn't want him to worry! And strictly speaking, she and Ruirui asked for it.

Yes, the exchange meeting was obviously over, and the two of them escaped from the crowd of junior students who were asking for autographs. They should have been able to leave, but later because they wanted to stay and visit the campus, they continued to be trapped.

The end result of being chased by juniors and juniors! But this experience is quite exciting! Since she let go of the past, she gradually found that there is nothing to be afraid of in the crowd...

Hearing her talk in such an understatement, Xiao Yongfan was even more worried and said in a serious tone: "Xi, you must let me contact you at any time when you go out from now on! Maybe it would be better if I should always be by your side."

Seeing him speaking such childish words so seriously, Li Ruoxi laughed and said, "You are so domineering!"

Even though she said this, Li Ruoxi's heart still felt sweet because of this side of him. He was nervous about her!

"Are you being overbearing?" Xiao Yongfan lowered his head and asked softly, with a trace of teasing in his eyes. Before Li Ruoxi could react, he picked her up and said, "Since you said so, I will be more overbearing and lock you in the house."

I won't let you go out, so you can only face me in your life!"

"Haha..." Li Ruoxi was stunned by his move, and then she was amused, her clear colored eyes flashing with a cunning light, "It's just for you, what if I get bored?"

"Are you bored?" Looking at Li Ruoxi's charming and smiling face with deep eyes, he was a little lost. He had never seen such an agile and naughty Xi, and now he was stunned!

"No!" With Xiao Yongfan looking at him intently and wrapping his hands around his neck, Li Ruoxi shrank her face into his arms a little embarrassed.

Her shy behavior like a kitten made Xiao Yongfan smile, hug the person in his arms tighter, and stride into the house. In fact, half of the reason for picking her up was a whim, and half of it was because of the cold air in the yard.

Seriously, he doesn't want to let her get cold! It's okay to blow some cold air, but he doesn't want his beloved to get cold, so he should bring her into a warm room quickly!

"Why aren't Ma Liang and Uncle Lu here?" When she returned to the house, Li Ruoxi found that there was no one else at home except her and Fan, and she couldn't help but wonder.

"They went to the hospital." Xiao Yongfan answered her question in a timely manner.

"Ah? Both of them have gone?" Xiaoxiang and Xiaonuan are still in the hospital. It's not strange for Liang's mother to stay in the hospital at night, but Uncle Lu usually stays at home after visiting them! Why are there two of them today?

None of them are here anymore?

"As soon as I came, they all went out..." Xiao Yongfan looked at Li Ruoxi with a smile. He understood what Liang Ma and Uncle Lu meant. They asked him to stay and wait for Xi to come back because he wanted to give them more time to be alone together.

Time! But looking at Xi's dull expression, Xiao Yongfan knew that the baby in his arms hadn't figured this out yet!

"Xi, I'm going to make a cup of warm milk for you." Walking to the sofa and gently putting Li Ruoxi down, Xiao Yongfan said softly. He had not forgotten that they came in in the cold courtyard just now.

But Li Ruoxi shook her head, looked at Xiao Yongfan, and said nonchalantly: "Fan, Brother Yao is a good person."

Fan treated her so tenderly, reminding her of another person who also treated her with tenderness, but she was unable to reciprocate the corresponding feelings.

"Yes, I know." Xiao Yongfan, who was about to turn around, stopped and replied softly. Xi suddenly said this because she probably already knew that he had had a fight with Qiu Yao.

"It's all my fault for hurting him." Li Ruoxi lowered her head, and her long hair immediately covered her expression, "Actually, I have long discovered Brother Yao's feelings for me, but I can't respond to him, so

I chose to ignore it, thinking that as long as this happened, his feelings for me would fade away, thinking that I wouldn't have to hurt him. But in fact, what I did made Brother Yao's love for me deepen day by day, and eventually

It hurt his heart even more, because I failed his love..."

"Xi, it's not like this. Don't blame yourself." Xiao Yongfan hugged her gently. He knew that once Xi knew that Qiu Yao had fought with him, he would feel as guilty as he does now, so he hid it from her. But now that she knows

, the only thing he could do was to hold this sensitive person in his arms and comfort her.

"But if I had rejected him earlier, he wouldn't have..." Li Ruoxi, who had been lowering her head, raised her head and looked at Xiao Yongfan, her eyes filled with tears that kept pouring out.

"Even if you have rejected him a long time ago, he will still love you. Until you truly get happiness..." Xiao Yongfan said softly as his fingertips gently scratched Li Ruoxi's delicate cheek. Thinking of what Qiu Yao once said -

"I am very satisfied to be able to keep Ruoxi silently for so many years. As long as she is happy in the future, nothing else matters. But if I know that you make her sad, I will never let you go! And you used to treat her like that

She, let her wait for you for so many years! I will not forgive you!"

Qiu Yao's words impressed him. When he came to him about the fact that he had treated Xi like that ten years ago and left Xi alone for ten years, he knew that this man would never have any less feelings for Xi than he did. However,

He was able to let go of this relationship when he knew that Xi would not fall in love with him, which was really generous! If it were him, he didn't think he would let go so easily, and would try his best to make Xi fall in love with him.

…

"Fan, Brother Yao..." Hearing what Xiao Yongfan said, Li Ruoxi shed more tears, "He is such a good person..."

"Shh." He gently pressed her sobbing lips with his fingers, "Xi, I said, your crying will make my heart hurt. And if you cry for another man, I will be even more jealous!"

Li Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips, and smiled sweetly, "You are really domineering!"

She knew that he said the last words to stop her from blaming herself.

"I'm so overbearing. I don't want you to cry. I just want you to smile happily." Xiao Yongfan said loudly as he gently wiped away the tears on her face with his hand.

"Okay." Unexpectedly, Li Ruoxi nodded so easily. She put her hands around Xiao Yongfan's waist and leaned her head gently on his chest, "But you also have to promise me that you won't blame yourself for what happened to me anymore!

Ten years ago, I never complained about you. If time could go over again, if that was the beginning of what I had to face when I met you, then just to be in your arms at this moment, I would be glad that it was me at that time

..." Later, Li Ruoxi's voice became softer and quieter. Such words were really embarrassing! However, ever since she heard Ruirui talk about his fight with Brother Yao in the afternoon, she knew she had to make him understand this.

Otherwise, he will definitely continue to feel so guilty!

"Xi..." Xiao Yongfan was moved by her words and hugged her tighter. He had always wanted to know Xi's attitude towards what happened back then. He was eager to know whether Xi hated him at that time, and he was more interested in it.

He blamed himself for being too weak to protect her back then. But he didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that the answer would embarrass both of them! But at this moment, he finally knew that he was worrying too much. Xi, like him, all wanted to be able to

I had no regrets when I met the other person at that moment...

When the two people hugging each other were immersed in the sweet atmosphere, the phone next to the sofa suddenly rang.

Li Ruoxi raised her head from Xiao Yongfan's arms and was about to answer the phone, but Xiao Yongfan pushed her back into her arms and whispered softly in her ear: "Ignore it..."

At this moment, he just wants to hug his beloved and breathe the fragrance of her hair...

"But it was Ruirui who should have called me to report that she was safe. If I didn't answer, she might be worried..." Li Ruoxi, who was held tightly by Xiao Yongfan, struggled to purr in his arms. Although she liked being hugged by Xiao Yongfan.

The feeling of being hugged, but she also had to consider her friend's mood! She called Ruirui after she asked her to go home. But she didn't answer the phone at this moment, Ruirui would definitely be anxious.

"Let her worry! That's her punishment." Xiao Yongfan said shamelessly, and reached out to unplug the phone cord.

"Punishment?" He stared at Xiao Yongfan's actions with wide eyes, a little dumbfounded. Did he guess that she would know about his fight with Brother Yao? It was Ruirui who told her, and he deliberately hid it from her just for her to reveal it.

To "punish" Ruirui for her "secret"?

"This is the punishment for making you cry." His fingertips gently crossed Li Ruoxi's crying eyes, extremely seriously.

What kind of logic is this? Li Ruoxi blinked her bright black eyes and looked at Xiao Yongfan who looked serious, even more puzzled.

"I don't want you to know about the fight because I'm afraid you'll blame yourself for your random thoughts. I don't want to see your embarrassed expression or your tears..." He lowered his head and murmured into her ear.

I want her to never have any worries and always have a beautiful smile!

"But it's not Ruirui who makes me cry, it's just me who loves to cry..." Being distracted by the charming male voice in her ear, Li Ruoxi's voice was a little coquettish without realizing it.

"Then it's you who I should punish?" Xiao Yongfan rubbed Li Ruoxi's cheeks with a hint of blush. She was so delicate that he couldn't help but want to tease her.

"Ah?" The red little mouth opened in a circle, and Li Ruoxi found that her thinking seemed to be unable to keep up with Xiao Yongfan's words.

"Your tears make me heartache. Of course I will be punished! Let you remember that from now on you can only think about happy things and laugh happily!" His fingers gently rubbed against Li Ruoxi's lips, and Xiao Yongfan suddenly smiled mischievously, "

So, I'm going to punish you - kiss me!"

"..." After hearing his words, Li Ruoxi was stunned. Her blushing face immediately spread from her ears to her neck!

Just when Xiao Yongfan thought that the blushing Li Ruoxi would not do anything, the blushing person suddenly kissed him quickly on the face, and then quickly turned away, and the blush on his face became even more beautiful.

…

But that brief kiss made Xiao Yongfan completely stunned! He originally only wanted to tease his beloved, but never thought that she would actually kiss him! Although she just touched his face quickly and lightly.

But that was the first time that Xi took the initiative to kiss him! The sweetness in his heart filled his brows, and he gently held her chin, making her shy colored contact lenses meet his fiery black eyelashes, and kissed them tenderly.

Beautiful little mouth...

After a lingering passionate kiss, Xiao Yongfan hugged the still shy woman tightly in his arms, stroked her long hair, and said softly: "Xi, sometimes I really don't understand why you follow me.

How can we become friends with that overly active Zhen Xinrui?"
