Chapter 6 Touch Her and You're Dead 4
Su Han walked out of the hotel lobby and suddenly felt that he had lost his direction.
The vehicles were driving very fast and one of the street lights was broken, so it was flickering. Occasionally, people passed by and looked at Su Han curiously in her beautiful dress.
A gust of wind blew, and the cold wind washed over her body. She didn't feel it at ordinary times, but now, Su Han really felt that autumn had come, and even the gentle breeze made her feel so cold.
Xu Zhe followed Su Han from a distance, not daring to get close - she had already returned his coat to him when they walked out of the hotel and insisted on going home alone.
The white street light flickered and then went completely dark. Su Han stood alone under the off street light, like a lost child.
A tall figure chased out of the hotel. Gao Entai ran to Su Han, held her shoulders, and said in stiff Chinese: "Su Han, I want you to explain clearly what is going on between you, Du Xu and Zheng Hao. I don't want you to destroy their relationship again! A girl can only like one person at a time!"
Su Han shook his head palely: "If I say that you all misunderstood, would you believe it?"
Gao Entai felt a little sorry when he saw her expression, but he still insisted, "I trust my own eyes more."
His words hurt Su Han's heart again. When Xu Zhe rushed over, he almost wanted to kill Gao Entai.
"Are you an idiot? You, Du Xu and Zheng Hao are good friends, so why don't you ask them what happened? What's the point of forcing a girl to answer?"
Gao Entai staggered after being pushed, and said with wide eyes: "You...Xu Zhe? I'm telling the truth, is there anything wrong?"
Xu Zhe snorted coldly, and his handsome face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost: "All of you stay away from Su Han! If this matter didn't involve her, you could quarrel, even if you broke each other's legs, what does it have to do with me?"
Su Han was firmly protected by Xu Zhe behind her. She didn't know why, but after hearing his words of protection, the tears that she had been holding back suddenly burst out.
Xu Zhe put his strong hands around her shoulders, his tone filled with heartache and tenderness: "Su Han, don't cry, let's go find Zheng Hao and talk to him, okay?"
Su Han kept shaking his head: "No, I don't want to see him, he won't believe me..."
Under the dim light, the tear marks on her face were particularly conspicuous, as if they were sparkling with crystal light.
Xu Zhe's face turned pale: "No, I can't let you suffer like this any longer. Everything will be fine if I explain it clearly!"
Seeing you cry is more painful than anything else!
The small coffee shop outside the school was still open until 11pm. The proprietress was lazily lying on the sofa at the bar, holding her baby cat, watching TV, and the faint sound of saxophone music was floating in the coffee shop.
Zheng Hao was the first to arrive here after receiving Gao Entai's call. The cappuccino in front of him was still steaming, but he had no intention of drinking it. He just looked at Du Xu opposite him sharply, as if he was meeting this good brother who he had known for many years for the first time.
Du Xu touched the corner of his mouth which was a little painful, and suddenly he smiled. In this smile, there was sadness, relief, and a trace of guilt. What the hell, I thought I could let it go after being beaten, but in the end I still feel unwilling!
Xu Zhe and Su Han sat together. Xu Zhe gently held her shoulders. Although it was just a courtesy of comfort, for some reason, the other three people present had a feeling that only the two of them belonged to the same world, and the others were outside this world, not qualified to participate, nor qualified to ask questions.
Xu Zhe frowned tightly and turned to Du Xu reluctantly: "Okay, now that everyone is here, I want to apologize to Du Xu first. I was too impulsive just now, but no matter how angry you are, you can't hit someone. I'm sorry."
Du Xu waved his hand and leaned back in his chair tiredly. He was silent for a while before speaking: "This has nothing to do with you. In fact, this matter... is all caused by me. It has nothing to do with Su Han." He raised his head and looked at Zheng Hao, smiling slightly, "Those ambiguous photos are all misunderstandings. However, if I hadn't taken advantage of Wen Ya's hostility towards Su Han, this matter would not have been so easily misunderstood by you... It seems that you don't know much about the neighbor sister who grew up with you."
Zheng Hao's face suddenly turned ugly.
Gao Entai didn't understand what they were saying at all. He looked at Du Xu, then at Zheng Hao, and looked like he wanted to ask a question, but he didn't dare to open his mouth.
Du Xu continued, "Although others think I'm pretty good, I'm the only one who knows. Every time people call me 'eternal runner-up'... Zheng Hao, you're like a dark cloud hanging over my head, weighing me down... Academically, family background, I can't compare to you in any aspect! But when I saw Su Han, I suddenly had an idea... Let her belong to me, so that I can finally take away your things, right?"
Xu Zhe coughed twice coldly and couldn't help but interrupt: "It's really too childish! Su Han is Su Han, she doesn't belong to anyone!"
Du Xu was stunned and smiled self-deprecatingly: "You are right, I am too narrow-minded and have never considered other people's feelings."
The coffee vapor rose up, blurring the faces of everyone present. The air seemed to be quiet, carrying the rich aroma of coffee. After a long while, Zheng Hao spoke in a low voice, his bright eyes staring at the table, as if something there had attracted his attention.
"Du Xu, you know, I always think of you as my best brother... And I never think I am superior to you. There are many things you do better than me." He raised his head, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have joined the basketball team... In fact, I'm not as stable as you, and I'm not very good at balancing the relationships among everyone... You don't know how many times I wanted to be you when there were conflicts among the teammates."
"Zheng Hao..." Du Xu looked at him in shock.
Zheng Hao also smiled bitterly, and the two finally looked at each other, and saw the long-lost tacit understanding in each other's eyes.
Finally, Zheng Hao knew where Du Xu's occasional gloomy expression came from, and Du Xu also let go of his knot. Tonight, they seemed to have returned to the innocent days when they played basketball They were honest with each other and no longer hid anything.
“Bang!”
Xu Zhe knocked on the table twice, breaking the warm atmosphere: "You have reconciled, but what about Su Han? She was dragged into this for no reason, what should we do?"
His broad shoulders trembled, and Zheng Hao turned around, his eyes filled with guilt: "Su Han, I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you."
Du Xu sincerely apologized and told how he and Wen Ya conspired to break Su Han's high heels and then designed a misunderstanding in the dressing room.
Gao Entai finally understood the whole story. He closed his wide-open mouth and apologized to Su Han eagerly: "Sorry, sorry, Su Han! What I said just now was really bad, so bad! I was really wrong, sorry, sorry!"
Xu Zhe pushed Gao Entai away in disgust. Seeing Su Han reluctantly nodded to Gao Entai, but still looking unhappy, Xu Zhe's eyes dimmed for a moment. Soon, Xu Zhe smiled again and patted the shoulders of several boys: "Now that the conflict has been resolved, I should go home." He looked at Zheng Hao, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a great decision, "Then, Zheng Hao, you take Su Han home."
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Zhe. It seemed that they did not expect that this loyal flower-guarding messenger would actually create an unprecedented opportunity for Zheng Hao and Su Han to be alone today.
However, what no one expected was that Su Han stood up and said without any hesitation: "No, I will go back with you."
Suddenly, everyone turned to look at Zheng Hao, and even Du Xu's eyes were filled with deep pity.
It seems that Su Han still can't forgive him...
ten minutes later.
Su Han put on Xu Zhe's coat, and the two of them strolled on the way home.
Late at night, the heavy clouds had dispersed at some point, revealing a bright stars.
"Xu Zhe, thank you..." Su Han suddenly spoke, "Thank you for everything you did for me tonight. Thank you for taking care of me all the time. I am ."
She looked at him gratefully.
Under the moonlight, her small and cute face lost some of its usual playfulness and gained some melancholy and grace, leaving Xu Zhe speechless for a long time.
After a long while, he turned around in embarrassment: "This... This is what I should do."
