Chapter 137 Escape
It was quiet. The room was quiet except for the ticking of the clock. 0
This was indeed a background that no one knew about. Apart from knowing her when she was young Lin Han she couldn't think of anyone else who knew this.
And Kris in front of him spoke completely...
"Lin Han..." Xia Ning shouted Kris' name in disbelief.
She remembered the black-haired, blue-eyed boy and the man in front of her, but she was unwilling to believe that Lin Han was actually Kris!
"When did you recognize me?" Although both of them were familiar, he had not seen her for 20 years.
Hearing Xia Ning doubt, Kris slowly tightened her grip on the hand that was still in the air and withdrew her hand.
He calmly explained," Just a few days ago, I had a call with Grandfather and he told me that Xia Ning returned to China." If he had recognized her a long time ago, then Xia Ning might have felt estranged.
Kris naturally understood this logic, so he made up a date to fool around.
Hearing the man's reply, Xia Ning nodded.
"Olivia, can you tell me why you left the Xia family back then? Ever since I left last time, I had gone to the Xia family to look for you. "But your brother told me you left."
Kris remembered following her parents to the Xia family four years ago. He had been searching for the little girl in the crowd, but he couldn't find her. After asking all the servants, they remained silent. Olivia seemed to have disappeared into thin air, causing him to panic.
He saw Olivia's brother in the backyard and his brother told him that Olivia would never come back again.
At that time, Kris was not mature, but he clearly knew that something in his heart was shattered in an instant. He hadn't noticed how he returned to the Lin Family.
Xia Ning heard Kris' question, she tilted her head slightly. Leaving the Xia family with her mother was like a scar that had been buried in her heart.
After all these years, she had tried not to think about it anymore. She had always hidden this memory in her heart.
She didn't know how many years had passed since this incident. She did n' t know if she could endure such pain, but she chose to remain silent. Her tightly pursed lips trembled as she endured.
Kris sensed that Xia Ning was unwilling to answer and sighed. Since she didn't want to say anything, he would n' t mention it again.
At this moment, he looked at Xia Ning with a strange expression in his eyes. His eyes were calm as he looked at her. After two decades of separation, the childhood sweethearts once again recognized each other. When they talked about the past, they didn't expect to be left speechless.
She was once his fiancée, and Kris' eyes dimmed when she thought of this.
If the two of them did not know each other, Xia Ning would be very happy to have a friend like Kris. However, the two of them were old friends and had an engagement relationship when they were young.
Xia Ning unconsciously dodged the man's burning gaze.
She felt that something had changed unknowingly. She wanted to correct the situation, but she didn't know where to start.
"I've lived well in those years. Lin Han Brother, do n' t worry about me." The air froze for a long time before she replied.
Thinking back to the days when she rented the house with her mother, her mother started to work from dawn to dusk every day to earn her living expenses. Xia Ning eyes suddenly tightened.
She felt a wave of sadness surge from her heart, and hot tears were about to drip down.
"Are you crying?" He caught Xia Ning change in expression and asked worriedly. He guessed that it was his words that reminded Xia Ning of those sad things in the past. Kris' tone was filled with remorse.
"How could that be? I've been doing well all these years." She suppressed the emotions in her heart and shook her head to explain.
Since he didn't say anything, he stopped asking.
The atmosphere between the two of them was a little awkward. They were clearly intimate friends back then, but now they were like strangers. After a few simple words, Xia Ning was urged to leave by Yuan He phone call.
Kris sat on the bed and tried to get out of bed a few times, but she was stopped by the Xia Ning until she heard the sound of high heels gradually fading away and the door closed.
He sighed and looked out of the grey window with his deep blue eyes.
Her heart was as delicate as his, how could she not know that Xia Ning was dodging his emotions and unconsciously avoided the memories of twenty years ago in her words.
He didn't know what had happened to her in those years, but he knew that Lin Han had long since broken into an endless abyss with her sealed memories.
If he wanted to regain his youthful intimacy, he might need to do more.
Kris' eyes became firm as she clenched her fists.
At this moment, Xia Ning was squatting in the hospital staircase, his eyes staring at the ground in front of him. There was a dim light in the staircase. Due to aging, the light was flickering.
If it had been in the past, Xia Ning would have been afraid, but at this moment, she realized that only here would she be able to breathe.
In her heart, a trapped beast fiercely slammed into her heart wall. A wave of memories continuously assaulted her, making her unable to breathe.
Until a long bell broke the silence.
Xia Ning pressed the answer button.
"Xia Ning, I found you weird. "I just called you to tell you that I have obtained the position of Vice-President of Kris' Official Support Association. Why are you so anxious to rush over?"
The woman in the stairwell stroked her forehead. All she knew was that she didn't hear what Yuan He said. She just perfunctorily said that she wanted to use the opportunity to leave. He actually forgot Yuan He usual spirit of breaking the bottom of the casserole.
Xia Ning felt that she had dug a hole for him, and there was a helpless atmosphere in her tone.
"I just want to come over and bless you. Congratulations on becoming Kris's official assistant director of the Xia Ning."
She tactfully followed Yuan He words, leaving no flaws in her words.
"Don' t come." The person on the other end of the phone sneered and continued," Didn' t you always scoff at my liking for Kris? "You're here to bless me. I' m sure I'm not very kind."
"Although I usually keep an eye on your star chasing behavior, I don't think it's as serious as it is, Manager Yuan."
"However, as the manager of my celebrity Xia Ning, why did you become the vice-president? Shouldn't you be the president?"
Hearing Xia Ning doubt, the Yuan He on the other end of the phone was embarrassed.
She wiped the tip of her nose and replied," President, I don't have any photographic equipment." "As the chief intelligence officer, I used this information to ascend to the position of Vice-President."
"Where did your so-called intelligence come from?" Yuan He said a lot of important things, but Xia Ning only caught the word intelligence.
There was no sound on the other end of the phone. Xia Ning picked up the phone and looked down at the page that was counting.
He didn't hang up. Why was there no sound?
Xia Ning asked the microphone uncertainly," Are you still listening?"
