I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 22 Cherish

The sky gradually fell into the dreamland of night, gently erasing the afterglow of the setting sun, and the winking clouds ran away one after another, leaving the speckled starlight to the world.

"Is it tasty?"

Drinking a can of "Ito Garden" brand ready-to-drink tea, Lin Zengxian leaned back in the chair relaxedly, unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, let the evening wind frolick around his collar, enjoying the A stress-free time.

"good to eat."

He does not accept hospitality from high-end restaurants, but accepts sitting on a bench by the side of the road to eat cheap and plentiful creamy ice cream. Yoo Jimin holds the ice cream box and sits next to Lin Zengxian, focusing on desserts.

"If you can eat like this now, when you become a trainee in the future, won't you be able to eat these things easily?"

Lin Zengxian took out a neat tissue from his pocket and handed it to Liu Zhimin, then watched her take the tissue and wiped her mouth carefully, before finally asking a question.

"I...should, manage it."

When seeing Lin Zengxian handing over the tissue, Liu Zhimin guessed that this person might have something to say, but he didn't expect that it would be such a sentence that she had agreed to be a trainee.

"It's really hard work."

Putting the end of the sentence, Lin Zengxian just drank his drink, his Adam's apple moved, and didn't say anything else.

After digging another scoop of ice cream and putting it into his mouth, Liu Zhimin leaned back on the seat, deflecting his gaze slightly, trying to observe Lin Zengxian who had fallen into silence.

Turn a little, can't see...

Don't, don't, you'll be found if you turn too much...

Just turn a little so you can't see anything...

just turn a little...

After tossing and tossing in her heart, she finally adjusted her gaze.

Lin Zengxian didn't look at her at all, he just sipped his tea leisurely and looked at the river.

so what?This is the end?

Don't you want to say something about that guy Yoo Ji-eun?
When Lin Zengxian didn't speak, she was already mentally prepared to resolutely "resist" and never give in.

As a result, Lin Zengxian really stopped talking, but instead she had a feeling that she was using too much force and her waist was flashing.

"Brother, do you agree with me, a trainee?"

After all, it is a 15-year-old child. Liu Zhimin bit the spoon and thought for a long time, and finally chose to say something that he thought would not reveal his thoughts of "getting angry with his sister".

"I agree, why don't you agree?"

Lin Zengxian couldn't tell that Lin Zengxian wanted to persuade him. From Liu Zhimin's point of view, this person's tone was relaxed as if Xu Youli was talking to her.

"I……"

The spoon tilted and blinked, Liu Zhimin didn't know what to say.

"Gou Fugui, don't...you will become a big star in the future, don't forget to sign for me."

Putting away the first half of the sentence that Liu Zhimin didn't understand, Lin Zengxian changed his words temporarily, but there was still no persuasion that Liu Zhimin had been guarding against.

"Actually, I didn't think about it."

I don't know if it's because I've been on guard for too long, or because I feel childish and boring in front of Lin Zengxian. Liu Zhimin's shoulders loosened, he hugged the ice cream box, looked down at his toes, and his voice became a little deeper.

"I, want to be a star, like, stage, feeling, but..."

However, at this moment, Liu Zhimin felt that he had no confidence in his heart.

I can't tell the specific reason, it's like walking on the edge of a cliff, and you will feel like you will step on the ground at any time.

"Brother, if it's you, what should you do?"

Putting aside the meaningless "children's wariness of adults", Liu Zhimin turned to look at Lin Zengxian's side face, really wanting to get some answers.

"I don't know trainees well, so I can't judge how good or bad it is to do this, but I want to ask you, if you don't do this in the future, will you feel that there is a missing part in your life?"

Still looking at the river, Lin Zengxian's expression was no longer as relaxed as before, and there was a bit of nostalgia that Liu Zhimin couldn't understand at this time.

"meeting."

He couldn't fully understand it, but he could understand 70% of it. Liu Zhimin's answer came out immediately without hesitation.

"Two questions, if you finally made your debut, can you bear a life that is not a normal person? If you don't make your debut in the end, can you still return to a normal life?"

Turning to look at Liu Zhimin, Lin Zengxian saw the confusion in the little girl's eyes.

She didn't know how to answer now.

"You don't have to tell me the answer, you can think about it slowly."

Lin Zengxian really didn't want to listen to her answer.

A fall, stumble, this is certain.

The difference is that, after falling to the point of bleeding, whether to continue to move forward, or choose to turn back, or never stand up again.

As for the last point, Lin Zengxian will not be worried. With the Liu family's family education and strength, she will not be unable to stand up. Even if there are any difficult difficulties at that time, Feng Lu and Pei Dongcan will not stand idly by.

This is her luck, if she fails, there is still a way out.

"But after you get the answer, be sure to tell your family sincerely."

Raising his hand and pausing for a while, Lin Zengxian finally put his palm on the top of Liu Zhimin's head and patted it lightly.

"Your sister has been telling me that Zhimin has grown up and is usually very sensible. Then, since you have grown up, you should consider the people around you more. I know that you should do well when you get along with your classmates at school. That’s good, but it’s the same when it comes to family members.”

It is natural to get along day and night, so it is easy to ignore.

"You are indeed deciding your own future, but you are a member of your family. Whether your future is good or not will affect every member of your family. Every member of your family loves you. If you If there is anything wrong with you, they will be sad."

Withdrawing his hand, Lin Zengxian also withdrew his gaze, and looked at the river again.

"I didn't think about lying to my sister..."

With his head depressed, Liu Zhimin took a deep breath, and the unconvinced grievance just now disappeared from his voice.

"You care about the eyes of your classmates and friends. Your sister didn't understand this. As a relative who is older than you, she can think about it more in the future, but if you don't tell her that you care, you can't blame her for not understanding you. It's mutual, your sister helped you speak well in front of Uncle Liu, but you didn't even tell your sister what was in your heart."

Putting the pot in his hand on the bench, Lin Zengxian took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the night view of the river.

Ever since Hanyu Airi left, he would often take pictures of the scenery he saw, and then send them to the number that was no longer in use but had always had sufficient calls.

"I admire you."

With an uplifting tone, not a low emotional color, Lin Zengxian's words made Liu Zhimin raise his head.

"Envy? Me?"

Driven by Lin Zengxian's tone, Liu Zhimin pulled out a little from his depressed mood.

"I went abroad to study when I was younger than you. I have been taking care of myself for more than ten years. I also really want to have family members around me who talk about me like your sister said about you."

Smiling so that his eyes narrowed a little, from the angle of view that Liu Zhimin couldn't notice, the mobile phone that just took the photo turned around in Lin Zengxian's palm, and then was gently held.

Seeing Lin Zengxian's smile was silent for a long time, Liu Zhimin lowered his head and bit his lips.

"Need to cherish."

The warm palm of the man covered the top of the girl's head again, as if the evening wind had been rubbed into the afternoon sun.

"Ah."

The girl nodded slowly.

"Xu Youli is your good friend, you trust her, right?"

The man's palm lightly patted the top of the girl's head.

"Ah."

The girl nodded immediately.

"Liu Zhien is your sister, you trust her, right?"

The man's palm gently rubbed the top of the girl's head.

"Ok!"

The girl nodded vigorously.

"Let's go and pick up your sister."

The man's palm left the top of the girl's head.

The girl raised her head and saw the man's back.

Tall and slender, but not thin at all.

"Brother Lin!"

The girl ran up and caught up with the man's back.

Her smile is grateful.

She ran to the man and grabbed his arm.

Her smile is playful.

Then, he pulled the man and continued to run forward.

Her laugh has a sound.

Under the evening wind and the night view of the river, the running seems to be a little faster than time.
