Chapter 69: Staying
“Brother Chen, are you hungry? I still have a piece of chocolate here. I took it from the car previously.” Bai Ran took out a slightly melted chocolate from her pocket and was about to peel it for Chen Chen.
As she peeled it, Bai Ran’s stomach growled. Chen Chen quickly rejected her. “I’m not hungry. Ran Ran, eat.”
“Then let’s eat together. One bite at a time.” Bai Ran rotated her head and brought the chocolate to Chen Chen’s mouth.
Chen Chen took a bite and suddenly felt a sweetness he had never felt before. The tears in his eyes fell as he said, “Ran Ran, eat too.”
“Okay.” Bai Ran bit the chocolate gently as well. Then, she touched Chen Chen’s face and smiled brightly at him. “Brother Chen Chen, don’t cry. We’ll definitely go back safely.”
Looking at Bai Ran’s smile, Chen Chen suddenly felt that this was even sweeter than chocolate. In this dark moment, this sweet smile gave him limitless power.
He sniffled and said, “I won’t call you Ran Ran anymore, okay? I’ll call you Tian Tian. You’re my Tian Tian only.”
“Okay, this is a nickname exclusively for me and Brother Chen!” Bai Ran clapped her hands happily, afraid that the two of them would wake up when they heard the commotion.
What happened next was better than Chen Chen and Chen Ran had expected.
The next morning, the police came over and arrested the two of them to save the two children.
It turned out that the two idiots watching over her were street gangsters. Assistant Feng had temporarily pulled them over to help.
After the fake car accident, the two of them did not even change their car and went straight to the warehouse. After Chen Chen’s father called the police, they quickly followed the clues and found this place. Naturally, Assistant Feng did not become a fish that had escaped the net and was quickly found.
After this matter, when the Chen and Bai families saw how the two children went through such an experience at such a young age, they exclaimed in their hearts and thought about how they would really become in-laws in the future.
Chen Chen was also happy to see this. He was also sweet and caring to Bai Ran every day.
At the thought of this, Bai Ran silently put down the cup, and her tears fell.
They were indeed very, very good when they were young. Unfortunately, all of this ended when Chen Chen was eight.
She did not know why, but suddenly, one day, his Brother Chen was no longer that close to her and no longer played with her. Instead, he gave all his attention to another girl, Hu Wan.
Although Hu Wan had also grown up with them, she was clearly just an ordinary playmate around them in the beginning. Her health was not too good either, and Chen Chen did not pay much attention to her. However, one day, his temper suddenly changed and he treated her as someone he cared about?
Moreover, it had been like this for more than ten years and had not changed at all.
Bai Ran had asked and argued with him, but it was useless. Over time, she had silently agreed to Chen Chen’s disregard until now.
“Tian Tian, why are you crying?” Chen Chen felt Bai Ran’s abnormality and let go of her. Although his head was still dizzy, he still asked with concern.
“I’m fine.” Bai Ran blinked and gently wiped her tears.
Looking at Bai Ran’s red eyes, Chen Chen’s heart suddenly ached. He recovered a little and finally raised his eyes.
He placed one of his hands that were holding Bai Ran’s tears down and touched her tears with the other.
“Tian Tian, don’t cry. My heart will hurt.” Chen Chen pressed Bai Ran against his chest again.
“Brother Chen!” Bai Ran suddenly called out the name she had not called him for more than ten years.
“Yes, Brother Chen is here,” Chen Chen said gently as he touched Bai Ran’s head.
Bai Ran closed her eyes in heartache. She knew that today was only because Chen Chen was a little drunk and could not control himself.
When he woke up tomorrow morning, this so-called “Tian Tian” would have become another dream.
Just like last time, Chen Chen would refuse to admit it.
The two of them hugged on the sofa for the entire night.
The next morning, when Chen Chen woke up, he saw Bai Ran sleeping peacefully on his chest. One of his hands was still wrapped around Bai Ran’s back.
