Chapter 142

I don't believe in gods and Buddhas, but I believe in you.

The past cannot be pursued. All we can do is grasp the future and keep going forward.

He stands tall and graceful, wandering among the lush and colorful mountains, when he raises his eyes, the brilliance of a leaf falls into the deep black eyes, bursting out with amazing light.

Like a pot of boiling water, his heart was tense, afraid that this was an illusion: "... What did you say?"

He stared closely at her eyes, as if he wanted to find out the truth of this sentence,
"Cheng Xiyu, I—"

Before she finished speaking, Cheng Xiyu hugged her suddenly, her voice hoarse: "...you can see clearly, I'm not him..."

Jiang Shu, I'm not your Cheng brother, I'm Cheng Xiyu.

"Well, I know." Jiang Shu's voice was very low, and she patted his broad and strong back lightly: "You are Cheng Xiyu."

"do you like me?"

He blurted it out, and only after he said it did he realize that he is now very much like a kid begging for candy, too naive, frowned, and just about to speak,
Jiang Shu smiled: "...I like it."

She didn't know when she got used to the existence of such a person.

Cheng Xiyu is arrogant and indifferent, domineering and naive, but she can learn and do many things for her,
The wontons he made were delicious, the flowers he bought were beautiful, he was dignified and full of brilliance, he would get angry occasionally, but he would still take care of her.

He is like a beast that has been alone for a long time, coiled alone in his own plain, guarding what belongs to him, and occasionally getting injured,
After a long time, a little fox named Jiang Shu walked into his territory, and the invincible Mr. Cheng felt the greatest helplessness.

If it was destined that the two of them would be so entangled, then Jiang Shu hoped that Cheng Xiyu could get what she wanted, and she should give herself a chance to start over.

Life is very long, and she has no spare energy to understand and love another person.

After a long time, the two of them went down the mountain to the resort. They ate in the largest box, and then ordered a few bottles of red wine.
Cheng Xiyu has no interest in red wine, and whiskey is too strong. Usually, no one dares to drink Mr. Cheng's wine, but tonight is a little different.
Xiang Jiamu poured a full glass of wine and handed it to Cheng Xiyu,
Cheng Xiyu: "?"

"Congratulations." He said without beginning and end: "You have to have what you want."

Cheng Xiyu quietly watched Xiang Jiamu, who never drank, drank the red wine in the glass in one go, feeling as though the dust had settled.

"Thank you." He said in a low voice.

The two people's voices were not loud, and they dissipated in the box filled with audio. Everyone only saw the two people suddenly toasting,

Xiang Jiamu made the point, and Gu Zhao also came over to join in the fun: "Come on, brother Yu and I will have a drink too, and finally come out to play, except for the girls, everyone else is not drunk today!"

Cheng Xiyu paid attention to Jiang Shu, and felt relieved when she saw her eating cake with Gu Ting and Lin Miaomiao in the quiet corner of the private room.
As he said to Jiamu, he had to taste what he wanted, even the full glass of wine that Mo Qian had poured out of good intentions.

Xiang Jiamu seemed to really want to get him drunk, and handed him glass after glass of wine. Cheng Xiyu drank with him back and forth without giving in, and the people next to him were all drunk and booed each other.

The sky gradually darkened, and the small lanterns outside the resort also lit up, the stars in the mountains were bright, the mist was hazy, and the sky was full of stars.
It was only then that everyone realized that the eldest young master of the Xiang family, who never liked to go to bars, was so good at drinking, that everyone was lying on the sofa unable to move after being drunk.

Xiang Jiamu poured another glass as if nothing had happened, lowered his eyes to the corner of the box, drank one sip at a time,

"You can send Xiyu back to the room." Gu Ting glanced at Cheng Xiyu who was sitting on the sofa with her forehead propped up, and turned to Jiang Shu.

Cheng Xiyu's wine was very good, she didn't look like she was drunk, her walk was not much different from usual, she just looked at Jiang Shu with straight eyes,

His eyes were too hot, Jiang Shu was dazed for a moment when he looked at him, Jiang Shu stretched out his hand, and he obediently stood up, hanging on Jiang Shu like a big pet,
It was too sudden, and Jiang Shu staggered a bit. Just as Bai Yiyi was about to walk over, Gu Ting grabbed her and said, "Yiyi, don't go there, Jiang Shu can do it alone."

"..." She bit her lip, "...Okay."

The two are so close that no one would suspect that this is the appearance of a young couple in love. In a corner that no one noticed, Lin Xi held hands tightly, her nails digging into her flesh without letting go.

Before going up the mountain, Jiang Shu pretended to be indifferent, but in just a few hours, her attitude changed so much,

If it was said that nothing happened between the two of them in the temple, she would not believe it.

When Jiang Shu led the tall and big man to the elevator, there was already some sweat on his forehead.

Not being able to drink and still drinking so much, she pinched her thin waist by the handle a little angrily,
I didn't pinch it, and I couldn't help but feel a little stuffy.

Fortunately, Cheng Xiyu still had some awareness, as if she sensed her unhappiness, she stood up straighter,

Jiang Shu: "..."

She couldn't help wondering if Cheng Xiyu was pretending to be drunk.

He looked at her straight in the eyes, and blinked when he saw this. The gesture of the man with a cold temperament was a little contrary, and he seemed even more aggrieved.

When I got off the elevator, I was still a few meters away from the room. Fortunately, I met a waiter who was checking the safety facilities and helped her to the door of the room.
Cheng Xiyu was very honest at first, and entered the room cooperatively. His face was hot. Jiang Shu wanted to wipe his face with a wet towel, but Cheng Xiyu tugged at her clothes to prevent her from leaving.

Already drunk like this, the tone is still natural: "Jiang Shu, I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"You said you liked me, you—"

Jiang Shu covered his mouth angrily, "Shut up."

He suddenly fell silent, the two just looked at each other, the atmosphere was a bit ambiguous,
"..." Jiang Shu sighed, feeling that it was very unwise for her to argue with a drunk: "Let go first. I won't leave."

Noticing that the force pulling her clothes had slackened, Jiang Shu didn't look at him anymore, just got up and walked to the bathroom, but suddenly a hand stretched out from her waist, grabbed her waist and pulled her down,

Jiang Shu was unprepared, she was still in a daze when she was lying on the bed, looking at the man with a handsome face and hazy eyes above her, she was startled,
Cheng Xiyu stared at her quietly. After a while, she buried herself weakly on her slender neck, and said in a muffled voice, "...Jiang Shu, it's so quiet..."

"If I shine a little brighter, can you... treat me as the moon..."

"........."

I'm afraid I'm a star, a star among thousands of replicas.

The moonlight fell quietly, and Jiang Shu felt the warm water vapor slipping over her neck,

She didn't speak, her eyes were slightly red, and she hugged him tightly, the soreness in her heart could no longer be restrained,

She wanted to say——you have always been the unique Cheng Xiyu, not the moon or the star,

Those are too soft for you.

You should be the radiant sun in the nine heavens.

I have seen the sun, tearing apart the clouds and mist, before the sunset, with a long aftertaste.

　Cheng Gou: I am the sun, I am the sun!
　　Thank you all for your votes!

　　Woohoo, you have the cheek to ask for votes, every cutie who voted, I hope you can have your own sun!
