"Wushuang, if you want to be happy, you’ll have to put in a lot of effort. Can you do that?"
"Of course I can!" Wushuang nodded firmly.
In her heart, Ache was the most pitiful person. No matter how much effort it took, she wanted to make him happy.
Ouyang Che stared at her, speaking each word carefully: "Since I was little, I haven’t had a mother, and my father doesn’t like . He often beats and scolds . I long for soone to always stay with , no matter what happens, never leaving and being really, really good to ... but I think that person won’t be you."
"Why can’t it be ?!" Wushuang got angry and puffed up her cheeks as she said, "I can, Ache, I can do all that!"
"You an you’ll always be with , no matter what happens, and never leave ?"
Wushuang nodded, "If you don’t leave , I won’t leave you."
"I won’t leave you."
"Then I won’t leave you either."
"And you can be really, really good to ?" Ouyang Che kept asking her.
At this mont, Wushuang wished she could give him the whole world as long as he could be happy.
"I can!"
"Better to than you are to your brother?"
"Uh... as good as I am to my brother, how about that?"
Ouyang Che’s eyes flickered slightly. So things can’t be rushed; they need to progress step by step.
He lowered his eyes and said dejectedly, "Actually, I’m not forcing you to be really good to . I just... don’t want to be too lonely, I want soone to always be by my side..."
Wushuang’s eyes stung, and her heart ached intensely.
This dejected Ache was not soone she was seeing for the first ti.
She finally understood why he had been so angry with her last ti; it was because he thought she didn’t want him anymore, didn’t want to be friends with him anymore, so his sadness and frustration turned into anger.
Wushuang suddenly felt very guilty; it was all her fault for making Ache sad and upset.
He was already pitiful enough, yet she still treated him that way.
"Ache... I don’t want you to be lonely. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side, never leaving."
The simple young girl did not know how heavy such a promise was or what it ant.
But she understood what she was saying, and she kept her promise, staying by his side, not leaving him.
Even though her brother opposed it so much, even though it made her brother angry, she didn’t leave him or neglect him.
The indifference in his eyes would always disappear without a trace when he faced her.
Gradually, she started to like that silent boy who always stood quietly watching her from not far away.
He didn’t like to talk, but his gaze always followed her.
Even as he grew more handso and many girls liked him, the only girl who could stand by his side was still her.
She liked this Ouyang Che, liked that in his heart and eyes, in his world, there was only her.
She thought this simple, blissful life would continue forever.
Until that day...
Her increasingly silent brother suddenly got drunk and accidentally barged into her room.
He grabbed her hand and painfully confessed his love for her, the intense affection in his eyes deeply shook her, leaving her in utter shock.
By the ti she snapped back to reality, she was already pinned on the bed by her brother, his kiss landing on her face and lips in a rough and inexperienced manner.
She was terrified; she didn’t know what went wrong or why her brother would treat her that way.
