Sheet 1107: Stubbornness

"I'm coming in! Hey...what's the sound?"

During the holiday, Shen Jie came to Tokyo again, but as soon as she entered the door, she heard the sound of machinery. Shen Jie followed the voice to the study, and saw comics coming out of a printer one by one.

Next to the printer, there is a computer that is blinking: "Teacher, I have sent you the final draft of the manga, please have a look."

There were messages on the chat interface of the computer. When Shen Jie was surprised, Meng Huo, who followed behind into the study, explained: "That's Qin Ya, I turned on the computer when I went to pick you up, and asked her to send the comics remotely. come over."

Shen Jie's eyes lit up immediately: "Are there any new comics? Can I read them?"

"Of course." Meng Huo nodded: "Do you like her cartoons?"

"I'm an experienced female reader, it's impossible not to be interested in her comics..." Shen Jie said, and then picked up the printed manuscript.

"Then I'll cook." Meng Huo turned around and went out to prepare dinner. Shen Jie sat down, but before reading the manga, she suddenly remembered something and took out her phone to send a text message.

"Han Xuan, did you find that painting? It's been a week!"

The painting she was talking about was the sketch mentioned by Meng Huo not long ago. Shen Jie asked Han Xuan when she returned to Suhua last time, but Han Xuan said that she forgot where she put it and needed time to find it.

——"Too bad! Shen Jie hasn't forgotten it yet!" Manga Island, Han Xuan became nervous as soon as she received a text message: "She won't run over?"

Han Xuan didn't know that Shen Jie had gone to Tokyo, and thought she might come over like last week.

In fact, the painting was not forgotten by Han Xuan, she just didn't want Shen Jie to take it away - in a hurry, Han Xuan replied a perfunctory text message again, and then called Li Yu to her dormitory.

"Li Yu, you must help me this time. If Shen Jie sees that painting, she will definitely take it away!" After Li Yu entered the door, Han Xuan held her hand: "If Shen Jie next time Come here. I said that the painting was accidentally damaged that year, and you have to testify to me. "

"Actually, it would be better for you to give that painting to Shen Jie..." Li Yu sighed. Han Xuan remained the same, wanting to monopolize that painting.

She recalled the scene when she saw the sketch for the first time. Han Xuan's performance at that time seemed to imply that she would not give the drawing to others.

"Li Yu, Li Yu,

I met Meng Huo just now, and he drew a picture for us. "

That was when they were freshmen in high school. When Han Xuan came back from the playground one day, she had a happy expression on her face—Li Yu rarely saw her so happy.

Meng Huo drew a sketch of the three of them. It was indeed a great work, but in retrospect, Li Yu was even more impressed by Han Xuan's performance.

"Look, it's pretty... His paintings are better than those of the art teacher. He seems to be observing me and you carefully..."

"Don't you think it's very curious... I always feel that Meng Huo always has a mysterious feeling about him. I heard that his family background is very ordinary, so how can he have so many privileges in school?"

"...You don't have to come to school, and the school will delay the music class because of him... Sure enough, it's because he is a genius..."

At that time, Han Xuan rarely said a lot about Meng Huo in front of Li Yu. But it does. Looking back on the past, Meng Huo has always given her a very mature feeling in Li Yu's memory, after meeting him. The classmates around them have become like children, without the charm of boys.

At that time, Meng Huo was not very talkative, and they didn't know his true identity, but his sense of stability was particularly safe. Even with Shen Jie present, Meng Huo would naturally take the lead when the four of them went out to have fun together.

"The same goes for Shen Jie, who was completely suppressed by him..."

Li Yu thought about it, and then sat down in Han Xuan's dormitory.

Looking at the carefully framed painting that Han Xuan took out, many memories of the past were activated. She still remembers that Shen Jie was the heartthrob of their school at that time.

Not long after entering school, Shen Jie was already known by everyone in Ninghai No. 1 Middle School. She has excellent grades, is all-round in sports, and has a good personality. When she saw it, nine out of ten boys blushed.

But Meng Huo is indeed an exception. Under this boy's calm appearance, there is a more mysterious and powerful soul than Shen Jie.

"Speaking of which, it's because Meng Huo is better than Shen Jie that Han Xuan..." Li Yu thought, she knew the reason why Han Xuan didn't want to give this sketch to Shen Jie.

"Han Xuan, do you still remember the words we both said at the same time when we saw this painting?" Li Yu put down the painting and asked Han Xuan.

"The two of us? Well... I think, is that the sentence?"

"It should be that sentence."

The two women looked at each other, and then both laughed: "Sure enough, the people from Qingcheng are all monsters!"

Laughter Back in the past, when they were still in the first year of high school, they often made jokes about Shen Jie and Meng Huo like this.

"However, the people who come out of Qingcheng are all monsters. If you look at it now..." After laughing, Han Xuan then sighed: "Actually, we were all wrong. Only Shen Jie and Meng Huo were in Qingcheng. monster."

After Shen Jie and Meng Huo, Ninghai No. 1 Middle School also recruited a few students from Qingcheng, but none of these people showed the sense of 'power' that Shen Jie and Meng Huo had.

"We are still bound by these two monsters..." Li Yu smiled, drinking tea, wondering if she should speak more clearly.

"Han Xuan, I still think it's better to give the painting to Shen Jie. She didn't say she would take this painting away, did she?" Li Yu said.

"I know if she doesn't tell me, if she sees it, she will definitely take it away." Han Xuan took the painting back from Li Yu's hand: "This is mine. I asked Meng Huo who he was going to give it to... he Didn't say give it to Shen Jie."

"But what he said was for us." Li Yu frowned: "It's not about giving it to you."

"There are three of us, but if Shen Jie knew, she would be alone. Meng Huo only gave us this gift. When I asked you if you wanted it, you told me to keep it!" Han Xuan stepped forward not to let.

Back then, Li Yu did agree with Han Xuan's approach, because both of them understood Shen Jie's temperament very well. If Shen Jie saw this painting, she would definitely take it away without any reason—as long as it was Meng Huo's painting .

Shen Jie's obsession with Meng Huo. Before she realized it herself, Han Xuan and Li Yu had already seen it from the perspective of bystanders. However, Shen Jie has a lot of Meng Huo's things, she does not lack such a thing.

Han Xuan and Li Yu didn't get anything from Meng Huo. So the two wanted to keep that painting. And Li Yu gave the painting to Han Xuan for safekeeping, because she knew that Han Xuan cared more about it than herself.

This sketch of the three girls has a more special meaning to Han Xuan—it was given to her by Meng Huo himself. It was also the first time she discovered that Meng Huo remembered her well.

"..." The past Zongzong flashed through Li Yu's mind, but the past is the past, and her thoughts have changed now: "Han Xuan... I still think it's better to give the painting to Shen Jie, it stays by your side , will keep you bound.”

Li Yu stretched out his hand: "Give it to me, if you don't want to let go, then let me hand it over to Shen Jie."

Han Xuan's face turned cold: "What do you mean? Li Yu?"

"I...Han Xuan...that's enough..." Li Yu bit her lip and said from the bottom of her heart: "It's time for you to let Meng Huo go."

"Keep that picture. It won't do you any good."

"...You, you will also take the initiative to say these things." Han Xuan's face changed slightly, but then she became gentle: "I thought you would always hide it in your heart and refused to say it."

Li Yu shook her head, she didn't want to say it at all, this kind of thing that exposed people's scars was not something she liked to do.

However, seeing Han Xuan like this today, she had to say something.

"You bound yourself to the past, Han Xuan." Li Yu held Han Xuan's hand: "Look at Liu Yun, isn't she very good, you can also learn from her and find an ordinary boyfriend, it's time to set yourself free .”

"What about you?" Han Xuan smiled and said, "Why don't you go find someone?"

"Didn't I find someone I like?" Li Yu muttered, "I'm not like you guys. I'm afraid of getting in touch with boys..."

"Are you still waiting for other boys to chase after you?" Han Xuan smiled even bigger: "I heard that the editorial department is all girls, and there are many editors who are not married, and the cartoonists you come into contact with are also girls... "

"Ah, stop, stop!" Li Yu hurriedly waved his hand to refuse: "We're talking about you, don't change the subject!"

"...I know, it's my business, right..." Han Xuan put away her smile: "You don't have to worry about me, I will let go sooner or later, but if it was so easy to let go, Shen Jie should have let go..."

"But Shen Jie really likes Meng Huo, you don't..." Li Yu said.

"The reason why you like Meng Huo is because he is better than Shen Jie, isn't it?" She looked at Han Xuan's stunned expression and continued, "You have always refused to admit defeat. So far, you still haven't given up on competing with Shen Jie. That's not liking at all."

After Han Xuan was stunned, she smiled wryly. Sure enough, no one is an idiot, and Li Yu, who is closest to her, knows her thoughts better than anyone else.

What Li Yu said was not wrong, the reason why Han Xuan liked Meng Huo was not because she liked him from the beginning. It was because Meng Huo was better than Shen Jie. For Han Xuan, Meng Huo was an admirable boy, because he let Shen Jie, who was stronger than him, concede defeat, and that was the thought that Han Xuan never extinguished.

No matter how powerful Shen Jie is, Han Xuan still can't give up the idea of ​​comparing with her. She really wanted to admit that Shen Jie was someone she would never be able to compare with in her life, but she couldn't help it.

Because Han Xuan has seen Shen Jie's fragile appearance, seen her suffering like an ordinary girl and loving someone alone, she has long since discovered that Shen Jie is a person, an ordinary girl.

And they are also ordinary girls, so Han Xuan can't always look up to her. She knew that Shen Jie had weaknesses, and she longed for her 'pride' that was destroyed by Shen Jie.

"Li Yu, I have been very proud since I was a child..." Han Xuan said: "When I first entered high school, Shen Jie destroyed my pride. But now, I can't tell myself like you, I have been more proud than you in my life. Not Shen Jie."

Li Yu was silent. When it comes to being proud, why isn't she? In fact, among the non-local students who were admitted to Ninghai No. 1 Middle School, each one was the proud child of their hometown, and everyone would have pride in their hearts.

But just as Han Xuan said, Li Yu had already lost her pride in the process of getting along with Shen Jie-this is the correct way, but Han Xuan has been unable to get rid of the last trace of pride, which has led to the current situation. situation.

"In front of Meng Huo, I knew for the first time that Shen Jie was not a monster, but a person like myself. She would show the same sad and painful expression as me, and it was all in front of Meng Huo—so I I yearn for Meng Huo very much." Han Xuan said, "He accomplished what I couldn't."

"So...you don't actually like Meng Huo based on your own ideas, you just yearn for him to make Shen Jie concede." Li Yu was a little sad.

However, Han Xuan didn't think so.

"I know what you are worried about me, and I have asked myself many times." Han Xuan said: "I didn't quite understand it in high school, but after so many years, I have already got the answer."

"The answer is..."

"I like him because he is stronger than Shen Jie... There is nothing wrong with that..." Han Xuan smiled.

But she went on to say: "But no matter what the reason for liking it is, I still haven't let go of Meng Huo... It's not because of my resistance to Shen Jie, of course that's true..."

"Until now, I still hope that one day I can surpass Shen Jie in a certain way. I want her to know that I am not her follower... Although she may not care at all..."

Li Yu couldn't understand: "Then you are still because of Shen Jie..."

"No, that's not right..." Han Xuan interrupted Li Yu: "Shen Jie is Shen Jie, and Meng Huo is Meng Huo. My rebellion against Shen Jie is just to prove my pride, but I didn't let go of Meng Huo. Shen Jie is fine..."

Li Yu was helpless: "But in the end, you haven't told me the reason..."

"Maybe it's my pride..." Han Xuan said with a smile, "After seeing the sun, the moon and stars can't get in my eyes... It's not that I don't want to leave, but I don't have a chance, because until now... ...I still haven't seen anyone better than Meng Huo."

She couldn't help it, she was different from ordinary women, Han Xuan had a proud heart in her chest, and she fell in love with Meng Huo, so she was not allowed to pick another person at random.

"But you can't play anymore like this. There are not many people in this world who are better than Meng Huo..."

"And someone who is better than him won't fall in love with me." Han Xuan understands how foolish her pride is better than Li Yu, but she can't change her nature.

"So, Li Yu... I won't put it down, but I won't pick it up either. Time can change a lot of things."

Han Xuan told Li Yu her thoughts, she was not bound by Meng Huo, because for her now, work and life are more realistic-maybe after many years, her thoughts will change, or she will fall in love with another people.

How to choose Han Xuan's life, she gave it to her future self. She didn't restrain herself, but entrusted herself to the future... But now, she won't give that painting to Shen Jie...

"Shen Jie can't take everything away... Besides...he's not married..." Han Xuan picked up the painting and said, "I'll wait for him to get married, and then let me give up completely."

"You are a bit like Shen Jie in your stubbornness..." Li Yu couldn't help laughing, but she understood Han Xuan's thoughts, so she didn't push her any further. (To be continued.)
