I always thought I hated you, but in the end I found that I still loved you. Thank you for coming into my world and lighting up my life for that moment.

Pulling back his thoughts from the long memories, Li Ziye was still standing in the hotel bathroom, with the text message lying quietly in his phone. Unknowingly, five years had passed since Ye Xiang and Xia Ke'en announced that they were together. It was not surprising that they would separate in five years.
However, this text message awakened too many memories that she had never wanted to touch, and made her panic for a while.
Even if they broke up, so what ? The person Ye Xiang cared about was Luo Yun. He wronged himself to be with Xia Ke'en for the sake of the dead Luo Yun, and also left Li Ziye behind.
Did she have to shamelessly stick to him even though they had broken up? Li Ziye slightly curved the corners of his mouth, revealing a sarcastic smile.
Although she had never been able to forget Ye Xiang, she really didn't want to play with them anymore...
So, after a brief trance, she calmed down, washed her face, and prepared to delete the text message, but her phone vibrated again, and she received a new text message: I sent this message four years late. Then another one: Li Ziye, I am Bai Yuwang. I know why they were together in the first place, it was not because of Luo Yun.
Li Ziye was lost in thought again with his phone in his hand for a long time... The text message was sent by Bai Yuwang. Wasn't it because of Luo Yun that Ye Xiang and Xia Ke'en were together?
She really couldn't understand this...
But in the end she just put her phone back in her bag without replying.
She no longer wanted to know the so-called truth, and she was even a little afraid. She was afraid that someone would tell her that everything was a misunderstanding, and Ye Xiang really loved her. Then would she regret not being brave enough to insist?
When she talked about Song Chuling and Su Li, she seemed to understand the reason very well, but when it came back to herself, she became a coward.
When Li Ziye walked out of the restroom, the crowd suddenly cheered, and then someone shouted: "Marry him! Marry him!"
She walked towards the crowd with a little curiosity, and saw Song Chuling in the center of the crowd, kneeling on one knee with a bouquet of flowers in her arms and a ring in her hand.
Su Li was standing in front of him. She was startled by his sudden action. She stood there in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.
Li Ziye was of course also startled, but she immediately reacted - Song Chuling was proposing to Su Li!
It’s just that Song Chuling did a great job of keeping it a secret. He didn’t even tell his own sister about such a big thing as the proposal. She didn’t even know he had returned from the United States!
In fact, since Li Ziye and Su Li reconciled last time, Song Chuling and Su Li have become official boyfriend and girlfriend. Although they have been in a long-distance relationship for two years, the two of them have always had a good relationship. Every year when Song Chuling returns to China, the two of them are inseparable, and even Li Ziye feels that he is an unnecessary light bulb.
This time, Song Chuling finished his internship and prepared to return to China for development, but he kept dodging and not telling Li Ziye the specific time of his return. It turned out that he was afraid that she would tell Su Li and he would not be able to achieve the effect of a surprise.
But Su Li was obviously very happy with this surprise. After taking a long time to come back to her senses, she snatched the ring and threw herself into Song Chuling's arms: "I also said that if you don't come back, I will wear the ring and go to America to kidnap someone!"
Song Chuling smiled and breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily I got there first, otherwise if you had attacked me so hard, would you have broken my legs and dragged me back?"
Su Li laughed and shed tears, and was a happy tears: "Yeah, definitely you must beat you!
"It's terrible to be uneducated. I'd rather marry you." Song Chuling rubbed her hair lovingly, then raised her head and winked at Li Ziye in the crowd.
"It means marrying, huh." Su Li hugged Song Chuling's neck tightly with both hands, her face full of sweetness that was enough to make people sick.
Li Ziye crossed his arms across his chest, his eyebrows slightly curved in a smile... It was great.
She had seen too many stories with bad endings. It must be a good fortune from her previous life that they could be together like this. In fact, sometimes she also wanted someone who could let her act like a spoiled child, tolerate her willfulness, and treat her well with all her heart ... Thinking of this, Ye Xiang's image popped up in her mind unconsciously. She shook him off, and he popped up again. Perhaps, in this life, she really had to completely forget him before she could love someone else.
While she was still in a daze, a hand suddenly rested on her shoulder. She turned around and saw her mother's gentle smile: "Aye, Chu Ling has proposed to me, when can you bring back a boyfriend for me to meet?"
Li Ziye saw his mother was surprised for a moment, so he asked her evasively: "Mom, why are you here?"
"How could I not be there for something as big as Chu Ling's proposal?" Mother Song looked at Song Chu Ling and Su Li in the middle of the crowd, smiling gently and kindly, "It would be nice if your father could see it, too."
It has been four years since Song's father passed away. Song's mother has become stronger and more capable. She did not find a man to take care of her but took good care of herself. She looks very young after putting on makeup. Sometimes people mistakenly think that she and Li Ziye are sisters.
After hearing his mother's sigh, Li Ziye's lips curved slightly: "Dad will see it, even if he is in heaven."
She seemed to be able to imagine that Father Song was there, and he patted Song Chuling's shoulder with a smile on his face: "Good boy, you finally found me a good wife."
Then Song Chuling would start to talk to him again... The scene of their bickering seemed to have happened not long ago, and she could still remember it clearly. But the more beautiful the memories, the more sad they would be. Song Chuling was the pride of Song's father, but Song's father would never see his happy day again.
Mother Song did not answer Li Ziye, but said with a smile that revealed a trace of relief: "If I can see you and Chu Ling find the right person, I think I will have no regrets in this life..."
"You are urging me to find a boyfriend in a roundabout way again. Do you really want me to get married? If I really get married, who will stay at home with you?" Li Ziye put his arm around his mother's shoulders, put on a playful smile, and tried to change the subject.
But Song's mother really had no intention of letting her go: "Do you have any good colleagues in the company where you are interning? If not, I can find someone to introduce you to. There are plenty of suitable boys. As long as you are willing, you can start blind dating tomorrow."
"... Let's talk about it later!" Li Ziye pushed his mother in front of the young couple Song Chuling and Su Li with a helpless look on his face. "You guys chat slowly first and build a good relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. I'm a little tired after drinking, so I'll leave first."
"Hey, Aye, how can you leave? I want to celebrate my successful proposal!" Song Chuling frowned, looking down on her for being disloyal.
Li Ziye rubbed his nose and smiled a little sadly: "Hey, I'm so jealous when I see you guys are so sweet. I've lost a brother and a good friend at the same time. Can't I be alone and feel sad for a while?"
Song Chuling wanted to say something but Li Ziye stopped him: "Brother, I really have something to do. I'll go back first. You guys celebrate well!" Then he waved to them generously, turned around, pushed through the crowd and walked out of the hotel gate.
Could it be that the memories brought back by those two text messages were too destructive? She should have been so happy at this time, but why did she suddenly feel so sad... so sad.
Li Ziye had a nightmare, and it was a recurring nightmare.
She dreamed that she was curled up in a dark and narrow alley , and a group of people surrounded her and beat her up. Her whole body was in pain, and she tried to hold her head. There were also insults that she was familiar with, telling her to die. Then Bai Yuwang walked past her and looked back at her with contempt.
Then, Ye Xiang came over from a distance... She wanted to ask for help, but she couldn't make a sound. She looked at Ye Xiang walking past her with an indifferent expression, and a suffocating despair arose spontaneously... She struggled and finally uttered a tiny sound: "Ye Xiang...save me..."
But Ye Xiang just turned around, glanced at her indifferently, and then continued to walk away with an expressionless face.
One night, she dreamed of this scene countless times. When entire back was wet and her face was pale.
She didn't expect that after so many years, she would still break out in a cold sweat because of an inexplicable dream.
She even clearly remembered the word "boring" that came out of Ye Xiang's mouth that day. These images were like broken pieces of glass, piercing her heart piece by piece.
She took a few deep breaths, got out of bed and poured a glass of water to finally get rid of the suffocating feeling in the dream. But after calming down, she thought about the dream again and found that she really couldn't let go of the past. Maybe it had nothing to do with liking or hating Ye Xiang. She couldn't let go just because she was unwilling to be abandoned like that... Ever since she knew her life experience, she was afraid of being abandoned. So the fact that Ye Xiang was with Xia Ke'en for Luo Yun was really a hurdle that she couldn't get over.
It would be very difficult for her to start over if she didn't get over this hurdle.
Thinking of this, she remembered the text message she received last night. She immediately took out her cell phone and planned to call Bai Yuwang to find out clearly, but before the call was made, she found that there was still an unread text message in her phone.
——I'll be waiting for you at the coffee shop next to your university at 10 o'clock in the morning. I know you've seen the message, and you'll regret it if you don't come.
Li Ziye frowned and thought about it, and finally decided to keep the appointment.
Seeing her changing her clothes and preparing to go out, Su Li looked at her in surprise: "Aye, don't you have to go to work today? I wanted you to go shopping for clothes for the engagement with me."
"I have something to do..." Li Ziye didn't know how to explain it to her, so he could only give a vague and general summary like this.
Su Li still looked at her in confusion: "Something's going on? What's the matter? Are you hiding it so much? Are you secretly dating and not telling me?"
"Yes, I am going on a date with a man, and he is handsome. Do you want to come with me? I will give you one." Li Ziye rolled his eyes at her.
Su Li rolled her eyes at her and said, "I won't be a light bulb. I have your brother, and that's enough for me. But if the relationship is confirmed, you must bring him to me to see. I can't be your sister-in-law for nothing."
Li Ziye was too lazy to argue with her anymore, so he picked up his bag and went out.
