Seeing Luo Haoning's face, Yun Mengxue's expression of pretending to be smiling was a little stiff.

"Brother Haoning, have you talked about everything and you no longer want to smile at me like before? Are you not willing to even pretend to be?"

Luo Haoning was slightly stunned, and Yun Mengxue stepped forward and squatted in front of Luo Haoning.

"Brother Haoning, I really want to be your friend. I hope to listen to your heart and share your sadness. People do not live with masks, but need to talk. Only by expressing the depression in their hearts can the whole heart become relaxed without burden."

Luo Haoning looked at Yun Mengxue's eyes calmly, listened to her persistent persuasion to open her heart, and suddenly chuckled softly.

"It's really similar."

"picture?"

Yun Mengxue raised her eyebrows in confusion. Luo Haoning was saying what she looked like?

"Brother Haoning, you..."

Before Yun Mengxue could finish speaking, Luo Haoning slowly raised his hand and gently stroked her face. Yun Mengxue was surprised, what is Luo Haoning doing?

"Brother Haoning..."

"Don't move."

Luo Haoning's voice was very light. Although his actions were a little weird, Yun Mengxue still obediently and obediently did not move.

Luo Haoning's slender fingers gently touched Yun Mengxue's eyebrows, and his fingertips moved to the corner of his eyes, like a brush carefully depicting her outline.

"Do you know why Haochen hates me?"

Yun Mengxue's eyes suddenly magnified. Does Luo Haoning have already begun to open his heart like this?

"Isn't it... it's not because of the aunt's affairs, so... and Chu Mengyao... and you..."

It's really embarrassing to say this. Yun Mengxue hesitated in embarrassment. That's what she knows.

"Between Haochen and Mengyao, I was originally a third party who suddenly entered. Mengyao met Haochen first. They had a very good relationship and were recognized by everyone. It was just..."

The third party? A recognized pair? Just?

Yun Mengxue is in chaos. What kind of relationship is this? Could it be that Chu Mengyao's original boyfriend was Luo Haochen rather than Luo Haoning? So it was because of her cheating that caused such a relationship?

Luo Haoning read out the thoughts in Yun Mengxue's eyes. He shook his head and silently denied Yun Mengxue's guess.

"Although this is the case, and Haochen does think so, but Mengyao didn't think so much. When the two of them had a very close and harmonious relationship, I was not known to Mengyao because I was in the studio for a long time. Until that day, she came to the studio by chance because she was hiding with Haochen, and that was the first time we met."

Recalling the past, Luo Haoning's eyes showed a lot of gentleness. This tenderness was not a disguise, but a true love.

Time goes against the flow, thoughts go backwards and memories from many years ago—

"Brother Haoning, don't you feel bored if you lock yourself in the studio every day?"

Chu Mengyao blinked her big, full of agility, and asked Luo Haoning with her hands on her cheeks.

"I like it, because it's a hobby, I never feel bored."

Luo Haoning's answer was not very exciting, so he stopped writing and turned around slightly.

"If you are bored, go out to play with Haochen. The atmosphere here is not suitable for you at all."

"Why?"

Chu Mengyao flattened her mouth and asked questions. Luo Haoning did not answer and turned around to continue painting. He did not like someone to watch by his side, especially he did not like Chu Mengyao always talking to disturb him.

"Brother Haoning, do you think I'm very annoyed?"

Chu Mengyao was not angry when Luo Haoning said that, but instead jumped over to Luo Haoning, tilted her head and looked at her and smiled. Her innocent and lively look was really not easy for Luo Haoning to say something with a cold face.

"I know! Brother Haoning, why do you treat me like this? Actually, I know it."

"Know? What?"

Luo Haoning asked back a bit unexpectedly, and suddenly realized that he had asked too much, he frowned and withdrew his gaze.

"Brother Haoning, don't feel embarrassed because of your identity. Anyway, you are also a child in this family. Why can't you play with Mengyao like Brother Haochen?"

Embarrassed by his identity? Luo Haoning's hand trembled, and a not-so-beautiful color slashed on the picture. He felt very upset, threw the brush away, turned around and glared at Chu Mengyao.

"What do you know? What do you know? Miss Chu's family, I'm not your playground, please leave."

Luo Haoning ordered Chu Mengyao to expel her guests. Although she looked a little sad, she didn't want to leave at all.

"I won't leave! Brother Haoning, I have known you for so long, and you haven't talked to others much. I like watching you draw, but they just like it! Besides, with me by your side, you won't feel bored. No one speaks very pitiful. Don't you think you will feel lonely after I leave?"

"Lonely? Hoho!"

Luo Haoning smiled coldly, he glanced at Chu Mengyao with cold eyes, grabbed her wrist and walked out.

"Hey? Brother Haoning!"

Chu Mengyao was pushed out of the studio by Luo Haoning not very gentle, and the door closed with a "slam"!

At first, you could hear Chu Mengyao knocking on the door and calling Luo Haoning, but in a short while, the outside of the door became extremely quiet.

Have you left?

Luo Haoning turned around and looked at the studio door, then a sarcastic smile flashed across his face.

"It sounds nice, but it's just a saying."

Luo Haoning always believed in his heart that he was the illegitimate son of the Luo family, and such an embarrassing identity made him at a loss.

Looking around the studio that suddenly became quiet, Luo Haoning actually felt a little deserted. Could it be that because of Chu Mengyao's frequent appearance, he was really used to the feeling of that person around him?

No! How is it possible?!

"Brother Haoning, are you thinking of me?"

Chu Mengyao suddenly opened the door and asked with a smile, interrupting Luo Haoning's sad thoughts, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing Luo Haoning's reaction, Chu Mengyao rushed to Luo Haoning with a smile of some reason, risking that she might be treated coldly or kicked out again.

"Brother Haoning, just admit it! Actually, you are really thinking that I am right to me? Say it out, you have to say everything you hold in your heart so that you will be as happy as me every day! If you tell me, then I will also tell you some secrets!"

Luo Haoning stared at Chu Mengyao who was talking to herself in a daze. This girl seemed to have no worries and loved to talk. Why did she always keep so happy?

"I have nothing to say."

Deliberately ignoring his inner feelings, Luo Haoning turned around and returned to the painting, picked up the brush and prepared to continue painting.

"It's really not easy for people to live. We should thank the dawn every day, because when you open your eyes, you can see the sunrise, which means that we have successfully spent another day alive and can see the sun the next day. What a blessing and joyful thing!"

Is it a blessing to see the next day's sunrise?

Chu Mengyao's words made Luo Haoning feel a little confused. What did she mean? Could it be that Luo Haoning was always so melancholy and closed, and eventually became depression, autism and other people who committed suicide?

This was what Luo Haoning thought. Chu Mengyao saw it and she burst out laughing.

"Brother Haoning, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, so I'll tell you my secret."

Chu Mengyao was quite generous. She moved the chair to Luo Haoning herself and sat there and looked at him with a smile.

"Actually, I was talking about myself because..."

Chu Mengyao's expression suddenly became a little lonely, and this emotional contrast attracted Luo Haoning's attention.

“Why?”

Luo Haoning couldn't help but ask Chu Mengyao, and she laughed again after leaving.

"It's nothing! I don't want to tell you anymore! Unless Brother Hao Ning tells me what he is in his heart, then... you should never listen to me if I can tell you a secret!"

After Chu Mengyao finished speaking, she walked out of the studio without waiting for Luo Haoning to drive her away. Before closing the door, she turned back to Luo Haoning.

"Brother Haoning, I hope that one day you can take the initiative to truly open your heart with me. I believe that that day will come soon, and I am really looking forward to it!"

Luo Haoning was left in the studio again, but this was a completely different feeling than before.

Chu Mengyao's words unconsciously opened the lock that Luo Haoning closed his heart. Although it was not completely opened, the key had been inserted into the lock core and it was only about to twist it when it was opened.

"Open your heart? Hoh... absolutely impossible."

Luo Haoning tried his best to calm the ripples in his heart. Luo Haoning should not have such an emotional response, and he could not and would not allow it!

For a long time, Luo Haoning has been deliberately avoiding the outside world. Because of his identity, he does not want to show his talents, for fear that his sharpness will be as strong as Luo Haochen, and may even surpass him.

As a family friend of the Luo family, Chu Mengyao often came to the Luo family to play, but before that chance encounter, she never knew that the Luo family had another child, Luo Haoning.

Chu Mengyao had a great impression of this brother who had been blocking her. At that time, she was already a sixteen-year-old girl, and her youthful sensation silently sent a signal to her heart.

Perhaps because he knew Luo Haochen too well since childhood, he could not have so many extra feelings. Chu Mengyao simply treated him like his brother. The chance acquaintance with Luo Haoning, his indifference and innate melancholy temperament deeply touched Chu Mengyao's heart.

From then on, Chu Mengyao would still come to the studio to see Luo Haoning painting, but she suddenly became silent, just looking at Luo Haoning quietly with a smile, staring silently...

A certain day

"Hao Ning, Mengyao seems to like playing with you recently."

Xu Yeli's words made Luo Haoning pause in his eyes, and then he opened his eyes.

"But I met by chance, I don't like it or dislike it."

Xu Yeli smiled slightly, her tone was gentle and friendly.

"Don't always look cold to Mengyao. That child... is actually quite pitiful. He has no mother since he was a child and has congenital heart disease. I heard that he had two major surgeries shortly after he was born, so you..."

"What?"

Luo Haoning looked at Xu Yeli in surprise, and Chu Mengyao actually...

"What a blessing and joy to be able to see the sun the next day!"

"If you tell me, then I will tell you some secrets too!"

Suddenly learning about this, Chu Mengyao's words began to circle in Luo Haoning's mind.

"So... she said this..."
