第 37 章
Getting Back Together
The human mind was like a glacier floating in the ocean. What appeared floating on the surface was only a small part of it. The depth and size of it would not be known until the ship hits it.
Liang Shiyun looked at Chu Xia.
He was also looking at her. He was like a sinner waiting for the result of the judgment, and as he worried, he was blaming himself.
He frowned slightly. When he pursed his lips while deep in thought, his expression was sharp and a little scary. It was completely different from the way he looked when he pressed her under him and kissed her tenderly last night.
But she couldn’t deny that both looks were equally sexy.
Perhaps having feelings for a person is a powerful clarifier, Liang Shiyun thought, and let out a sigh of relief, “Chu Xia, let’s try again.”
“So you two got back together?” Cheng Qiao asked Liang Shiyun.
She just called to ask Liang Shiyun if she had received the specialty products she brought her. She was told such explosive news, and had to confirm again, “Is that how you got back together with him?”
“If it’s too much for you to process how we got back together—” She sighed. “—then just don’t think about it anymore?”
“Don’t you want us to be together?” Liang Shiyun asked.
It rained heavily that day, and Chu Xia braved the rain to carry her back. Cheng Qiao spoke well about Chu Xia. What’s more, the specialty products could be delivered by express delivery, but they were handed off to Chu Xia. If Cheng Qiao wasn’t trying to help, then why did she create an opportunity for them to meet?
“I still want to ask you, weren’t you always biased against Chu Xia? Why the sudden change?” Liang Shiyun asked another question.
“I—” Cheng Qiao was at a loss for words, and said after a while, “That’s not bias, it’s just that he was not worthy of you before.”
“You are a wonderful person. I always thought that only a man who is outstanding and who loves you is worthy of you. It’s just that in reality, there are not that many outstanding men, and there are not that many men who are loyal until death do you part because of a beautiful love… That day, Chu Xia braved the rain to find you. It made me think that he still cares about you. If he really decides to stay in the country, then he would be a good choice.”
“But you got back together with him so easily, I think you let him off too conveniently.” Cheng Qiao changed the subject.
Liang Shiyun was silent for a while: “When it comes to feelings, how is anything convenient?”
Since she still couldn’t let go, since he had always been that special existence to her, why was she being so ambiguous?
She went through agony for a long time when he proposed to break up, but now she was no longer the same Liang Shiyun as before. Even if there were changes between them in the future, she could handle it properly.
Why be scared of it?
Like this, they got back together.
Liang Shiyun recorded Chu Xia’s fingerprints on the door lock of her apartment. However, considering how close they live, she didn’t invite him to move in and she didn’t plan to move in with him either.
They returned to the same state as when they were friends with benefits: morning exercises together, having a meal together when they had the time, and going to bed together.
Of course, Chu Xia had the intentions of being a boyfriend: report his schedule, share things with her often, and no matter how busy and tired every day, he would definitely chat with Liang Shiyun before going to bed. But Liang Shiyun was not necessarily like that…
She was busy with work, and he often sent a message when she was busy. She only replied after half a day had gone by, and the content of the reply was also short. Most of the time, the replies were only emojis or “ohhh” and “yeah”.
Chu Xia felt that Liang Shiyun was too familiar with and accustomed to how they were before. If they were to differentiate themselves from when they were friends with benefits, then they were boyfriend and girlfriend.
However, titles were of no use.
Except for Cheng Qiao, Liang Shiyun didn’t tell anyone about how they got back together.
Chu Xia really wanted to make their reunion public. He even wanted to use Liang Shiyun’s photo as the background picture on Moments to avoid unnecessary chats and persistent friends.
But it had been nearly two weeks since they proposed to get back together. Both of them are busy and haven’t even had a decent date. Liang Shiyun didn’t like to take selfies, so the photos she kept on her phone were all taken by others, and they couldn’t explain their relationship clearly.
Thinking of this, Chu Xia was somewhat concerned.
In addition, their circle of friends and Fang Yuan’s network had a lot of connections. The newly reunited relationship could not be reported to their parents all at once. Chu Xia could only cooperate with Liang Shiyun to conceal it in a low-key manner.
How to regain the feeling of the past after breaking up for a few years and then reuniting was a difficult problem.
Except for when they went to bed together, Chu Xia felt that Liang Shiyun put him in the position of a friend rather than a lover when she interacted with him.
She did not complain, let out any negative emotions, or have any expectations of him.
She was introverted and didn’t like to reveal her true thoughts. Her personality now was almost the same personality from when they dated in college. She didn’t seem to have any conflicts or dissatisfaction, except for occasional jealousy.
Back then, Chu Xia had never been in a relationship with anyone else. However, he instinctively felt that a healthy relationship should not be so distant and tolerant. Any conflicts should be brought up and resolved in time, so he guided Liang Shiyun to slowly go through the bumpy journey of discussing their relationship.
It was just that at that time, Liang Shiyun trusted him wholeheartedly, unlike now
He didn’t know if it was because Liang Shiyun had matured through the mishaps that happened in the past few years or if it was just because of the unfamiliarity brought about by the years of separation.
When Chu Xia and Liang Shiyun interacted, they could always feel an invisible barrier
He remembered that day, Liang Shiyun calmly said, let’s try again.
It was in a very casual tone, as if to say: If it works out, then it works out; if it doesn’t work out, then let’s breakup, there won’t be anything good to reminisce about.
