Forced into a romantic relationship

Chapter 69 You Are Behind the Clouds
After a brief hesitation, Han Zhou finally chose to bow down for five points.

"I promise you." He said helplessly, "but let's say it in advance, if you do something too extreme, I can't guarantee that I won't be angry."

He still felt uncomfortable, and protested in a timely manner, "Also, can you stop using the method of conditional exchange to make me do things all the time, making it look like a deal."

Mo Yixia was as good as others, and agreed: "Okay, then I will just ask you to help me if there is anything I need to do in the future."

"It's almost..."

Han Zhou thought it was just like a friend's way of getting along, but soon realized something was wrong——

No, this guy's business is quite troublesome. If you beg me, I will do it for her. Wouldn't it be a loss for me?
No, you can't say that, but I can also ask her to do things for me instead...

Seemingly seeing what he was thinking, Mo Yixia asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Zhou shook his head: "It's okay, you can continue talking, I'm a homeless man digging through garbage, and you are an ordinary person with tone deafness, then what?"

Let's finish the temporary tasks first.

"Well... Let me think about it. In exchange, I need to feed you, and you need to praise my singing voice at all times..."

Mo Yixia first reviewed what he said before, and then his eyes showed a thoughtful expression. It was really hard to tell whether he was remembering or making up, anyway, Han Zhou felt like the latter no matter how he looked at it.

A few seconds later, Mo Yixia said: "We have maintained this relationship for a long time. Singing is a rare thing I like, but I can't sing well, and everyone doesn't like to listen to it, so I only dare to sing in front of you." Sing, and although it is very reluctant every time, you still force yourself to praise me for singing well in order to eat soft rice, I know you don't want to, and I know it's against your will, but you will still feel satisfied."

what is this...

Han Zhou muttered in his heart, but he kept the mission requirements in mind, and gave this dream monologue enough respect without interrupting it.

He also wanted to hear what this guy could say.

"Dreams are elusive things. I can't remember many details now, and I don't know how time passes in them. I just remember that the story has been developing absurdly and flatly. The absurdity is that, We obviously maintained such an awkward relationship, but gradually we developed true feelings."

Han Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly.

But Mo Yixia's old problem was repeated, so he stopped here, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked without warning: "Han Zhou, do you know what I hate the most?"

The most annoying thing...

Han Zhou was stunned for two seconds, not sure why this guy would suddenly mention this, he hesitated for a while and said, "Study at home?"

"I really don't like this thing, but it's just a derived appearance, not the essence of things."

Han Zhou thought about it carefully, and said carefully, "The essence is too difficult to guess, but the source of this matter should be your mother, but I remember you said before that you didn't hate her much, so it seems that it's not her... ..."

Of course, he had thought about the reason why Mo Yixia would be world-weary, but no matter how he thought about it, he felt that Jiang Baiqian's persecution-style education had brought too much pressure on her, which caused her to close her heart and become what she is now.

However, this inference is somewhat untenable after confirming that Mo Yixia is studying well, because she can fully bear these pressures. Once she shows her true level, perhaps Jiang Baiqian will not force her like this at all.

"You can finally remember what I said once." Mo Yixia breathed a sigh of relief.

What she was referring to was obviously that Han Zhou remembered that she said that she didn't hate her mother very much.

Perhaps because of this, she did not continue to let Han Zhou guess, but gave the answer directly.

"What I hate are other people's expectations."

"expect?"

Han Zhou frowned slightly, not expecting such an answer.

"Well, I don't remember when it started. The reason why my mother forced me to study is actually because she wanted me to help her with things she couldn't do. I hate her fiery eyes, and I don't want to satisfy her. Wish, but not entirely because of her."

"Many people say that she is doing it for my own good, but for me, this sentence itself is the most hypocritical expectation, an imposed kindness, an inescapable shackle, disgustingly disgusting—expectation to me It’s too heavy for me, and I always think it’s a different kind of persecution.”

After a pause, Mo Yixia continued, "However, I know very well that people are individuals, but they are also social animals. There will always be intersections due to various reasons. It is inevitable to place expectations on each other. I can Ignore how other people get along, but I can't accept that anyone has any kind of expectation of me, do you know what I mean?"

She glanced at Han Zhou.

It turned out to be like this...

Han Zhou was silent for a long time. To be honest, it was difficult for him to support Mo Yixia's theory. The other party's ideas were too extreme. If a person chooses to reject all expectations, it is destined to be difficult to connect with others, and it is normal to gradually get tired of this world .

He finally understood why the status bar said that Mo Yixia was extremely rebellious and hated all expectations. This was the nature of the other party. He was unwilling to respond to others, which was naturally a kind of rebellion.

This should be a disease, right?

"That's why you're world-weary?" he asked.

"Did you see it?"

Mo Yixia seemed a little surprised, but his tone was still calm, "It's true to say that you are world-weary, this is a heavy world entangled with various expectations, whether it comes from others or from society, everyone has to bear heavy burdens." Living under pressure, I hate it for granted."

"But it will be very tiring."

Mo Yixia asked without answering: "Is it easy like you are now?"

Han Zhou was choked up, and suddenly remembered what the other party said yesterday, and couldn't help asking, "Then do you still hate me?"

"Are you asking about the past or the present?"

"Of course it is now."

"You really forgot what I said again."

Mo Yixia sighed softly, did not answer, but said, "Actually, I don't have much ill feeling towards you, because you are one of the rare people who don't have expectations of me, or you don't like to force others. , your biggest expectation of me is to make me smile at you, and I don't know what kind of strange habit..."

Han Zhou was taken aback. His thoughts were basically on the status bar and points. If he had no expectations for this guy, he didn't expect this to be a bonus item...

He pondered for a while, and said strangely: "Your definition of expectation is quite broad, why do I feel that you simply don't like others to teach you how to do things?"

"I don't deny this. I really hate other people's demands on me, just like my mother forced me to study, but doing things according to other people's ideas, isn't this also a kind of expectation?"

Han Zhou was about to refute, but suddenly thought of something, and said in a daze, "That's why you have been getting along with me in exchange from the beginning, even if you admit that I am friends with you, it is still the case, because exchange of conditions is not Count as a request, so that you can avoid the things you hate..."

There was another sentence he didn't say later, which was that Mo Yixia's insistence on doing this might be to make herself not hate him - she didn't intend to change herself or others, so she intentionally maintained this way of getting along.

If this is the case, it would be really awkward... Han Zhou felt that he finally had a better understanding of Mo Yixia.

But he suddenly thought of one thing.

Mo Yixia didn't respond to his words, and the topic shifted again, asking, "Where did I just talk about my dream?"

Han Zhou didn't care, he thought for a while and said, "You said that I had a real relationship with you."

"Oh, it's really emotional, let's continue talking."

Mo Yixia pondered, "Even in my dream, I still hate other people's expectations, so I actually like my ordinary, because it doesn't deserve anyone's expectations, like weeds on the road."

"The only thing I don't like is the lack of tone, because I like singing very much, and occasionally I want to get the appreciation from others, so you have to force yourself to praise me in order to eat soft food, and it is destined to be difficult for me. Anyone looking forward is just to my taste."

"But now that I think about it, expectations are clearly what I hate the most. I regard it as a heavy shackle, but I expect you to accommodate me. Isn't this ironic?"

As he listened, Han Zhou suddenly understood.

The dream monologue mentioned in the time-limited task does not really refer to the dream, but Mo Yixia's inner monologue. This is a rare moment for the other party to open her heart. For some reason, she seems a little confused.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "So how did we develop feelings in the dream?"

"You think that's weird, don't you?"

Mo Yixia glanced at him, "I also find it strange, but it seems that there is no special reason, that is, the first time is born, the second time is acquainted, and the third time is the fourth time to sleep on the kang. It is probably the so-called long-term love. But our relationship is It hasn't changed much, you still eat soft food, and then praise me for singing well against your conscience."

love for a long time...

Han Zhou pondered for a moment, could it be that what this guy had was really a sexual dream?
Mo Yixia observed his reaction, sighed softly, and said in a melancholy tone: "It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and we didn't live happily ever after, because an accident happened."

No matter how it sounds, this is a common transition sentence pattern in stories. Do you dare to use your conscience to ensure that you are not making it up?
The corners of Han Zhou's eyes twitched, but he still asked cooperatively: "What accident?"

Mo Yixia sighed: "My real identity is actually the princess of a neighboring country. One day the king led an army to overwhelm the country and took me away from your side. You will never see me again, and you will go back to picking up trash." I spent my life in tears all day long, life would be worse than death."

"This is too old-fashioned..."

Han Zhou couldn't bear it any longer, and said sadly, "Also, you can just say that your ending and inner feelings are not good, why keep talking about me?"

"It's really old-fashioned, but it's like this in the dream. As for why you didn't mention my ending..."

Mo Yixia lost her way, "Because the dream is over here, I was quite sad in the dream, but after waking up, I saw you dancing beside me like a fool, and kept staring at me, suddenly felt It's not that sad, the ending of being taken away is actually not bad."

"is it?"

Han Zhou laughed dryly, "The princess who was taken away easily forgot the partners who supported each other. As far as the ending is concerned, it's not too old-fashioned."

Mo Yixia glanced at him: "Correct me, we are not a partnership, but a relationship where we sleep on the bed three times and four times. I even had a child when I was taken away..."

This guy has always been amazing, and he seems to have no shame.

After a pause, her tone suddenly became serious, "Then if you could choose, what ending would you choose?"

Han Zhou twitched the corners of his mouth: "I'm a tramp, what else would I choose? Do you have unrealistic expectations of me?"

Mo Yixia turned her head to stare at him, emphatically saying each word: "Remember, I have your child."

"This is just a dream." Han Zhou sent out a kind reminder.

"Even if it's a dream, I have your child."

"Are you starting to be a rogue?"

Han Zhou couldn't laugh or cry, thought for a while, and said seriously, "Then I should choose the old-fashioned ending, the handsome guy counterattacks and regains the princess, and leads a happy life..."

As the voice fell, the room became quiet, and the two maintained a tacit understanding, without making a sound for a long time.

It wasn't until the air conditioner started up again, making a whirring sound, that the silent atmosphere was broken.

The thick curtains block the glare of the sun and the heat, and the air conditioner blows out cold air, making the room cool.

"are you cold?"

After a long silence, Mo Yixia suddenly asked.

Han Zhou was taken aback, got up and said, "I'm fine, if you feel cold, I'll go and turn up the temperature of the air conditioner."

"No need." Mo Yixia shook her head, drawing short lines on the paper with the tip of the pen, "Bring me the school uniform jacket for me, it won't be cold when I put it on."

She has always been like this, she puts on her school uniform when she feels cold, but it is the first time for Han Zhou to help her with the school uniform.

Including helping her get orange juice in the morning is also the first time.

Usually these things are done by herself, and she will not ask others.

Han Zhou handed her the school uniform hanging on the side, smelled a faint fragrance from the tip of his nose, and asked, "You haven't finished your dream, have you?"

Mo Yixia put on her school uniform, tucked her fair arms into the sleeves, and smoothed her long hair that was loose behind her, looking as if she was about to go to school.

She answered irrelevantly and said, "My dad will be back tomorrow."

"Ah."

"he……"

"He's the king who wants to take the princess to a neighboring country."

Han Zhou took the girl's words and said with a half-smile, "You want to say that you will be taken away by your father, right?"

Mo Yixia's reaction was very calm: "How do you know?"

Han Zhou smiled: "I remember you mentioned this before, saying that your father will pick you up when he comes back, and I'm not a fool. You hinted like that just now, how could I not see it?"

"It's not a hint, I really had that dream."

Mo Yixia was silent for a while, and then said what was in her heart, "I don't like that ending."

Whether it is a dream or not is not important anymore, Han Zhou said thoughtfully: "So this is the thing that you have been refusing to tell me and you are worried that I will be angry. You want me to help you stay here, and even used Something has been done in my name, right?"

"Correct."

Mo Yixia glanced at him flusteredly, with a rare guilty tone, "You, will you be angry with me?"

This is quite rare, Han Zhou couldn't help laughing and said, "I would be angry at first, but I remembered something, so I stopped being angry."

"what's up?"

"It's up to you to think about it yourself."

He imitated the other party's previous appearance and made a fool of himself, in order to retaliate against this guy's previous behavior.

But Mo Yixia didn't fall for it, and didn't ask questions, just sighed: "People like me must be very annoying, obviously I hate other people's expectations, but now I want to force this expectation on you."

"It's really annoying."

Han Zhou nodded in agreement.

"Although it's the expected answer, it really hurts to hear you say that."

Mo Yixia said in frustration, "I'm really a contradictory person."

"Yes, very self-aware."

"Since I'm such an annoying and contradictory person, surely you won't choose the old-fashioned ending again?"

She lowered her head, looking dazed and helpless.

Han Zhou quietly watched Mo Yixia's performance.

This trick of pretending to be pitiful is too familiar. He used it on this guy the day before yesterday, so he naturally couldn't be fooled. He said with a headache, "Okay, don't be so miserable, what did you learn from me..."

Seeing that it was seen, Mo Yixia simply stopped pretending, and immediately returned to his usual appearance, calmly said: "Since you are not angry with me, then I can understand that you are willing to help me?"

"Yes." Han Zhou sighed, "But I'm still at a loss for now, do you have any countermeasures now?"

"Yes, go and tell my dad that we have a baby."

"What the hell?"

Han Zhou didn't seem to hear clearly.

"Go and tell my dad that we have a baby."

"last sentence."

Mo Yixia was not fooled, and concluded with a conclusion: "We have a child."

Han Zhou looked downcast, when will this guy get rid of his nonsense?
He rolled his eyes, intending to take advantage of the opportunity: "I can help you, but in exchange, you must promise to do one thing for me."

"Okay, but this incident can't be used to offset the one you owed me before."

Han Zhou was once again seen through his mind, and was immediately defeated.

Mo Yixia smiled without saying a word, stretched her arms and stretched her waist.

The school uniform jacket was a little thin, but she didn't know if it was an illusion. She always felt warmer than usual when she wore it, just like the orange juice in the morning was sweeter than usual.

Thinking about it carefully, I obviously hate looking forward to it, but in fact I don’t need to have too much contact with a place. It’s good to be a rootless person, it doesn’t matter where I go, but why do I want to stay here?

She gave herself many reasons, but there was only one real reason——

As she thought yesterday, she just didn't want summer to end too soon.

Yesterday was the first time I said "see you tomorrow" to someone. She always felt that she hadn't learned how to control her tone. This is a skill that needs to be learned, and she wanted to practice it a few more times.

Ten times, a hundred times, many times, until you learn it.

This guy has an obligation to teach himself.

Many things are unreasonable. If she hadn't had such a dream, if she hadn't seen this guy by her side when she woke up, she might not have said those words at all.

How to describe this complicated mood?

I can't find an accurate adjective, but if I have to describe it, I'm probably used to someone who can eat fish that I don't like, and I'm used to a guy who understands nonsense, and he's very funny, maybe he can always Satisfy your curiosity.

If the story is not long enough, then pull him to write a few more strokes.

What a strange relationship.

One thing she's not really lying about is that she really doesn't remember the lyrics to "I Want to Be in Love" very much, she just likes the melody of the song.

But she was impressed by the last two lines of the lyrics——

"It was raining every day and the sun was always hiding behind the clouds."

"It wasn't until some fine weather many years later that I realized that it was you behind the clouds."
