Chapter 74 The Past
Starry night, the street was still noisy.

On the corner, Chen Keren looked up the sky and turned back and said faintly, “Let’s go back.”

Yi Duanfang nodded and said, “Did they finish?” Love me, Love my dog. Yi Duanfang would accept the person Wang Weixi liked. Of course, Chen Kexin was a beautiful exception. Therefore, Yi Duanfang must dislike the person Wang Weixi hated, such as Lan Xiao.

Chen Keren understood Lan Xiao’s style of work. No matter how sad he was, he would not be in a tangle. “I guess he has already left,” she thought before she nodded faintly.

Yi Duanfang shrugged his shoulders, and then they went back.

“You supported Lan Xiao just because he was the one your mother chose?” Although Yi Duanfang hesitated, he still decided to speak out.

Chen Keren was stunned, but instantly she continued keeping going. “Have you ever liked someone?” Suddenly, Chen Keren asked curiously.

Yi Duanfang was stunned for a second, and his face fell and said, “I… like someone.”

Chen Keren frowned, and she felt a little bit uncomfortable. On the surface, however, she showed a coldness that was indistinguishable from the usual, and at this moment it was somewhat unpredictable.

It seemed that Yi Duanfang did not realize her expression, and he chuckled and said, “Although I like her, I still know that we are impossible.”

Chen Keren curiously asked, “Why?”

“The reason… is that we’re impossible.” It looked like he did not want to say, just said faintly.

Chen Keren frowned, and suddenly teased, “I am surprised that there is a woman who makes you feel inferior? Or…you think that you are so excellent that she can’t be with you?” This was a bit ridiculous, but Yi Duanfang may think it in this way.

But this time Chen Keren guessed wrong, Yi Duanfang heard these words, shook his head humourlessly and said, “You think too much.”

Chen Keren smirked, but she didn’t want to continue listening. She didn’t want to hear that Yi Duanfang said that he liked other women. She always looked like a queen. After knowing her own thought, naturally, there would not be a bit of disclosure. But she could not tolerate that the man she liked said he loved others, even if she mentioned it at first. When she saw Yi Duifang’s depressed look, she did not want to continue this conversation.

“Since you experienced it, you should be able to understand the feeling of like. I know that Lan Xiao likes my elder sister, that kind of profound, I thought that no one can compare,” Chen Keren said without any emotion, and got back to the topic they were talking about.

Yi Duanfang nodded. “But, unrequited love is just a matter of one person. No matter how much he likes Kexin, as long as Kexin does not have same feeling for him, of course, she doesn’t have the deep affection for him. Reluctance will lead to a bad result.”

Chen Keren nodded. Suddenly, she wanted to talk about childhood experience to Yi Duanfang. Then memories flooded back.

In the bustling street, they walked side by side. Chen Keren suddenly said, “Um, I tell you something about my childhood.”

Yi Duanfang nodded, he didn’t know. But he liked to listen to Chen Keren, and even wanted to know her past, even though he knew that she mostly talked about Chen Kexin, just like he opened mouth, but it was talking about Wang Weixi.

Thus, Chen Keren unveiled the past, a childhood that she missed, but unwilling to remember.

Actually, she didn’t remember much, the most was the story of Lan Xiao and Chen Kexin.

She remembered that they went to the beach together, remembered that they were in the kitchen together, remembered that they were sunbathing together, and remembered that they went to the park together. She remembered that Lan Xiao inserted a fragrant lily into Chen Kexin’s hair, remembered that every time Chen Kexin’s called “Xiaoxiao”, the radiant smile spread on her face. In fact, Chen Kexin thought that she had never been to some place. In that past, she had been there. However, she later closed herself and forgot what she experienced.

At that time, Chen Keren considered them as an inborn couple. As long as Lan Xiao was there, Chen Kexin would feel happy. But she had never thought about that Lan Xiao went abroad without any information. The day before he left, she heard that Lan Xiao told Chen Kexin that he would back, but Chen Kexin didn’t understand what he said.

Maybe in that time, they were too bashful. Lan Xiao didn’t understand how to express the meaning that his leaving was all for Chen Kexin. Perhaps he thought they grew up together, and there was no need to state something clearly, because they were all well-informed. Perhaps he was only afraid that Chen Kexin felt that it was unnecessary because he could study at home.

In short, in any case, he left. In Chen Kexin’s view, he abandoned her and abandoned their beautiful memories. She was sad, depressed, and burst into tears. But her mother suddenly passed away. This time, she could not cry. The two people she depended the most were left. Chen Kexin sturdily chose to forget, not only forgetting the memories of the past, but also herself at that time. Because she had suffered a heartache for Lan Xiao, even if she was young, Chen Keren thought that such a sorrow would be remembered for a lifetime.

When she was a freshman, Chen Kexin met a boy. His smile was very gentle, looked like the Lan Xiao in memory. He pursued Chen Kexin for a whole year and never gave up. In the end, Chen Kexin decided to be with him. Simple Chen Kexin thought that one year’s time was enough to see through the true heart of a man, but she was wrong.

The boy took her to see his mother, and the woman was passionate about her, and even tried to make her feel like her own mother. During that time, Chen Kexin felt the joy and satisfaction she had never had before. Because, the woman was like her own mother, beautiful, gentle, caring for herself, and occasionally even enduring her temper.

Chen Kexin understood the difference between touching and love. She knew that she didn’t like the boy named Xue Huai, but she didn’t care, because she just wanted to have a mother who loved her so much.

Her love for Ni Ya was almost so extreme that as if as long as there was a mother, the world would be complete. Chen Keren knew that because in Chen Kexin’s eyes, as long as there was a mother, both of them would be happy. Hence, she wanted to use her own happiness to tell Chen Keren that one day, there would be a mother around her.

It was not Chen Derong’s remarried woman, not the lovers of Chen Derong outside, but the mother of her boyfriend.

However, she did not expect that even this was just a dream. Beting her so-called perseverance and sacrifice, what she gained was betrayal of Xue Huai.

All of these were a conspiracy.

When Chen Kexin quietly pointed to the big boss named Chen Derong in the building, the woman around her suddenly changed.

Chen Kexin didn’t know that she was imposed. But later, when she realized, the woman had become her father’s favorite mistress and that guy, Xue Huai, who said that he liked her, had already embraced a beauty and looked at her with a smile.

“Do you think that I like you? At first I pursued you just because you are beautiful, and you have a rich family. Who knows you are hard-hearted, but the cake of your family, who doesn’t want to have a piece? So I lied to you. I should have thought that after you promised me, I can have sex with you. Who knows, your dressing is bloody sexy, but you are so conservative. Do you know that I am impatient to death every day? Fortunately, my mom is full of charm and attracted your stupid father. How is your feelings? Do you regret now? But I heard that you are most afraid of making your family sad. Would you like to tell your father?”

She looked at the ugly face of that man and nearly spat out.

In fact, Chen Keren should have been abroad during that time. But at that moment, she appeared and gave a lesson to Xue Huai and the woman he hugged, and then she took Chen Kexin away.

Chen Kexin understood that even if Chen Keren was abroad, she still knew Chen Kexin’s situation very well.

“That man was really bad!” Yi Duanfang said furiously.

Chen Keren sneered, “So he had to pay for what he did.”

Her footsteps accelerated, and Yi Duanfang did not know what her words meant.
