But at the same time, she is very rational. If she thinks that Xia Tong's father is doing the right thing, it will definitely make things worse for me. Maybe it will be a few slaps.

"I……"

"That's it, this incident has to happen sooner or later. It's actually good that there is no warning today."

Before, Jiang Chen and I planned when to meet Xia Tong's father, but every time we had to decide the time, we were very nervous, and we always found a reason to delay the time.

So from this point of view, the slaps I received were quite worth it, it was just a temporary pain, which was much better than the panic that I could never let go of.

"Did brother make my uncle angry?"

"No, it's me who made you angry, Sister Xia Tong. I'll treat it as a favor for my brother. Don't mention my name at home in the future, don't mention it once, you know?"

This may be the last time Xiaoqi comes to me in an open and honest way. After that, I am afraid that I can only ask Sister Jingyu to meet with all kinds of strange reasons.

But in that case, the problem comes again. Xia Tong and I have a very awkward relationship now, and it is really tiring to be too close to her family.

It would be great if I was also in the third year of high school this year. Then, Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen would go abroad for evacuation, and there would be no need to worry about the two of them warming each other up. Four years would be enough to obliterate everything.

But there is still one year left. When Xia Tong's father said "I hope I don't regret it" before leaving, was it a warning or a hilarity?

I think the answer is about to come out, so can I bear it?What is he going to do with me?

I don't know any of this...

Sorry

When Xia Shu returned home full of exhaustion, the air was filled with all kinds of fragrances, which made people unable to open their eyes.

"It smells delicious, what do you do?"

"Fried sausages with spring onions, diced spicy chicken, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed sea bass... You came back just in time, come and eat."

Lu Qing got up and served the meals to the table. When Xia Shu changed his shoes and walked into the restaurant, he even walked around him like a little woman, showing off his work.

"How is it? Do you think it tastes good?"

"Yeah, but is there anything a little lighter? I've been busy so far and have no appetite."

"Yes, I have!"

As Lu Qing said that, he brought a pot of soup and two dishes of vegetables from the kitchen.

The memory of the last time the family ate together was not far away, it was only ten days and a half months, but the last time the atmosphere was happy, she really couldn't remember when it was.

pop-

"Little Tong, come over for dinner."

"..."

When Xia Tong came to the table, this subtle change became more and more obvious in Lu Qing's eyes.

No one said a word, but everyone felt that the remaining two had [-] words to say.

This kind of silence lasted for most of the meal. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer meals in the bowls for the two of them, Lu Qing finally couldn't help it.

"Little Tong, what did I tell you just now? Your dad finally came back, shouldn't you..."

"sorry."

Xia Tong put down his chopsticks indifferently, and bowed his head slightly to the man in front of him.

But now, instead of apologizing, it's better to just read these three words without any apology in his tone.

But in Xia Shu's ears, this is not the case. No matter how indifferent Xia Tong's expression is, or how perfunctory Xia Tong's tone is, these three words are like Hong Zhong Dalu slamming into his heart and speaking. There were some vibrato involuntarily mixed in at the time, and he bit the tip of his tongue before trying to remain calm.

"What did you say?"

"I'm sorry for misunderstanding you for so many years!"

Xia Tong said, stood up and bowed again in front of her parents. This time, the action was extremely standard, but before anyone else could react, she sat down again talking to herself, and Xia Shu was forced to change her tune.

"It's alright, I'm your father! Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, don't mention the past, let's eat quickly."

It was obviously something to be happy about, but for some reason, all Xia Shu could feel was powerlessness. He vaguely felt that the brokenness of Xia Tong was more important to her than the "father-daughter relationship". thing.

I wanted to help Xia Tong clip a piece of ribs, but the hand holding the chopsticks couldn't stop shaking, and it was successful after clipping several times in a row.

Just when Xia Shu felt relieved, Lu Qing tapped the edge of his bowl with his chopsticks.

"What are you doing? Xiaotong hasn't finished speaking yet..."

"What else?"

"I won't be as angry with you as I used to be in the future, not even once."

Xia Tong said softly while picking up the rice in the bowl with chopsticks. She said this sentence more than once, but only this time it was "sincerely".

"You really shouldn't be angry with your dad, or you don't have the right to be angry with your dad. He has been too wronged for so many years. From your "good intentions to do bad things" to "not keeping your promises", grandma saw it in the spirit of heaven. will be difficult. "

"I know."

Xia Tong's eyelids were drooping. As the murderer of her grandmother, she was not qualified to speak too much.

Now her parents can say whatever they want, and she has no right to refute anything, just like her father back then.

It turned out that this was how I felt when I was actually charged with this kind of crime, that was when I was in front of the tomb...

For no reason, Xia Tong's nose was sour, and a tear fell into the bowl. Because she kept her head down, she was not found.

sorry……

Really sorry……

"What about Ye Xi's side? Since he has already apologized, there is no need to continue making troubles, right? Besides, he didn't go too far. He just told you what happened back then."

"We're not the reason for that."

Xia Tong blinked a few times, dizzying away all the tears that remained in her eyes, and her expression was still indifferent when she raised her head.

"What's the reason for that?"

"I don't want to mention it anymore, can you not ask?"

Until now, the parents have not questioned the "apology", and Xia Tong probably knew it.

What Ye Xi and Jiang Chen said at the beginning were the truth, and they did keep it secret.

Now that the stage has been set up, since someone keeps saying that it doesn't matter if she continues to be a victim, why should she be wrong?

After all, from the beginning... I was a coward.

Ye Xi was right, but why couldn't he persist and walk with him, why didn't he even give himself the chance to be self-willed, and he insisted on revealing the truth bloody.

"I don't want to ask, but look at you now."

"I'm very good……"

"I really wish you could look in the mirror and say something like this, isn't it good that "listening" is engraved on your forehead? "

Xia Shu said, took out his mobile phone, and took a photo of the present and handed it to Xia Tong.

Now she is lethargic, has tired eyes, and is not even active in makeup. This is something that only happens when she is in an extremely bad mood.

"I'm very good!"

This time, Xia Tong's tone was beyond doubt.

Xia Shu and her looked at her and wanted to say something, but Lu Qing was faster and stepped forward to smooth things out.

"Okay, it's hard for Xiaotong to say sorry. It's right to be depressed. After all, she has overturned the misunderstanding of so many years. You should be happy that she can still sit at the same table as you to eat now. , what does Ye Xi do? Are you really in such a hurry to marry your daughter? Is Ye Xi worthy of him?"

"match!"

Xia Shu's answer surprised Lu Qing, but Xia Tong turned a deaf ear.

"Anyway, I'm fine, and I won't go on hunger strike in the future."

"..."

"That's good, you're uncomfortable on hunger strike, and we're also uncomfortable watching it." Lu Qing didn't have the time to tangle with Xia Shu about the problem just now, took Xia Tong's bowl to help her with a bowl of soup, and said, "Then the main thing is Too naive, like a child making trouble. But you are no longer a child, you have to be responsible for your own behavior."

"understood……"

Xia Tong nodded perfunctorily, sipped the soup, and the living room fell silent again.

"By the way! When are you going to go to the school? It's been almost half a year since the school was closed."

Seeing that the atmosphere became more and more awkward under the topic of "apology", Xia Shu asked another question that he wanted to know.

Ask yourself, for so many years, he no longer cares about apology, especially after admitting his mistake at the tomb last time, it seems that his heart is dead, and he doesn't care what happens after that.

Compared with the situation around him now, it was Ye Xi's side that worried him more.

The price now paid for a "worthless" and "meaningless" apology is a relationship that lasted two years, and that most likely never healed.

If this is a business, it must be a bankrupt business.

"What? No idea?"

Xia Shu has no confidence, he is not afraid of embarrassment for the two of them to meet, but he is afraid that the two of them will not even have a chance to meet.

If you don't apologize now, it's because you "don't admit your mistakes." If you "don't admit your mistakes" in this matter, there will be more than one thing you may regret in the future.

"Then go..."

In the end, Lu Qing rushed to answer, but Xia Tong immediately cast an impatient look after hearing it.

"What? Why are you looking at me with those eyes?" Lu Qing didn't have the slightest sense of doing something wrong, but instead he kept reciting, "Isn't it what you said? Not completely let go. "

"I didn't say no, but don't answer for me, okay!"

After being pulled by her pigtails, Xia Tong seemed so powerless to answer.

"That's fine! It's good to be able to get out. Is there anything I can help with later?"

"..."

Xia Tong didn't say anything, just quietly drank the last bit of soup left in the bowl, but every sip and sip had revealed her mood.

Xia Shu simply did not embarrass her, and took the initiative to take a step back to help herself.

"No... it doesn't matter if you don't, then you can handle it yourself."

"Well, I'm done eating."
