Spring River Chasing the Moon

After finishing the call with Yan Wei, Xu Zhi sat in the room for the whole afternoon. When he came to his senses, night had already fallen quietly.

After checking the time on his mobile phone, Xu Zhi picked up the car keys and walked straight to the underground garage.

Until the car stopped beside the road opposite the compound, Xu Zhi was also a little dazed looking at the visible lights of several houses inside.

He was absolutely certain that he came here because he was worried about Nan Qiuyue.

But he was hesitant. What should they talk about when they met? Should he confirm those things with her?

Or should I pretend not to know and continue to get along with him as before...

After thinking for a long time in the car, Xu Zhi took out his mobile phone and edited the message repeatedly.

When Nan Qiuyue received the message from Xu Zhiye, she had just finished dinner and was chatting with Luo Luo in the room.

Luo Luo had some great news. The company that Tang Li had recommended to her before had included her music and had received a large amount of copyright fees today.

This money was a good start for Luo Luo and solved many of her real problems. Moreover, the company admired Luo Luo's talent and decided to cooperate with her for a long time.

When Tang Li told her the news, Luo Luo was so happy that she immediately went home, told her grandmother about it, and then went to the Nan family and bought gifts for everyone in the family.

For her, it was the Nan family that gave her a brand new life.

Nan Qiuyue was also happy about the change in Luo Luo's fate. After dinner, the two of them hid in the room and talked, forgetting everything else for a while.

She didn't even pay much attention to the new message reminder on her phone, thinking that it was probably just someone in the group chatting on the screen.

Half an hour later, Luo Luo went into the bathroom to wash up first, and then Nan Qiuyue picked up her phone and turned it on.

Nan Qiuyue sat up from the bed immediately when she saw who sent her the message.

Xu Zhiye's name was clearly displayed on the phone screen. Nan Qiuyue quickly clicked on it and saw that he had sent her a message half an hour ago.

"I'm at the gate of the compound. Is it convenient for you to come out?"

This message was sent half an hour ago. Nan Qiuyue quickly got out of bed, without even putting on her coat, and went downstairs in her slippers.

"Where are we going?"

Chen Lili was practicing calligraphy in the living room. Nan Youzhao was reading a newspaper nearby. When he saw his daughter running out in a hurry, he asked her.

"Mom and Dad, my classmate wants to see me for something. I'll go meet him at the door."

Nan Qiuyue had no way to say that Xu Zhi had also come to see her.

"Ask your classmates to sit at my house for a while. It's windy at night, so don't stand outside. Bring your coat..."

Before Chen Lili could finish her words, Nan Qiuyue ran out.

As he walked out, he responded, "It's okay, I'll be back soon."

Nan Qiuyue was afraid that Xu Zhi had already left, and she even forgot that she could contact him first.

When she ran to the door, she found that Xu Zhiye's car was still parked across the street. He was not sitting in the car, but standing alone under the street light with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

Nan Qiuyue tidied up her messy hair and walked over slowly.

Xu Zhi also felt someone approaching. He slowly raised his eyes and saw Nan Qiuyue walking towards him.

Half an hour had passed since the message was sent, and Xu Zhi still thought he would not be able to see her tonight.

She had lost a lot of weight. This was Xu Zhiye's first reaction.

"Why... did you come here suddenly?"

When she walked in front of Xu Zhiye, Nan Qiuyue felt complicated.

She thought Xu Zhi had discovered something, so he had lost contact with her in the past few days.

But he came again tonight, and Nan Qiuyue couldn't figure out the current situation.

"Yan Wei said...you've been sick these past few days...I'm here..."

Xu Zhi was also confused and didn't know how to start.

When he said that, Nan Qiuyue's face immediately fell.

"So that's it."

Nan Qiuyue didn't even finish listening to Xu Zhiye's words, and her tone was full of disappointment.

So, if Yan Wei hadn't told him that she was sick, he wouldn't have come to see her at all.

"I'm fine now, there's no need to come all the way here."

Nan Qiuyue lowered her head and said angrily.

She kicked her feet in regret, wondering what she was expecting.

Xu Zhi also noticed her little movements, but he was more concerned about Nan Qiuyue's thin clothes.

It was already autumn and the wind was quite cool at night, so she wore a cotton and linen shirt.

Xu Zhiye looked at the little girl with her head down, sighed unconsciously, took off his coat and put it on her.

"You've only just recovered, and you didn't pay attention to keeping warm. You came out wearing so little."

Nan Qiuyue was lowering her head, not knowing what to say, when Xu Zhi took a step closer to her. Then, Nan Qiuyue was wearing a coat with his body temperature and familiar smell.

Nan Qiuyue felt that she was so disappointing, because of Xu Zhiye's action, her heart began to fall a little again.

"So... is that what you came here to tell me?"

Nan Qiuyue looked up and looked into Xu Zhiye's eyes with burning eyes. She didn't know whether Xu Zhiye had discovered her feelings. She tried to find the answer in Xu Zhiye's eyes.

"I worry about you."

Facing Nan Qiuyue's sudden gaze, Xu Zhi resigned himself to his fate and followed his heart, expressing his truest thoughts.

After he answered like this, Nan Qiuyue didn't know what to say next.

"Okay, go back now. Your parents must be worried after being out for so long."

Xu Zhi also looked at the little girl's dazed look, she looked silly, yet also quite cute.

He hasn't thought it through these days. He always thinks that Nan Qiuyue is his sister who he has seen grow up with, and they cannot and should not have any other feelings for each other.

But at this moment, Nan Qiuyue was standing in front of him, looking at him with her clean and clear eyes, and Xu Zhi could no longer ignore his inner feelings.

The love I have for Nan Qiuyue is more than just a brotherly one.

I don’t know when this change began.

Maybe it was the day they met again after he returned to China. The girl was so graceful and elegant, standing downstairs of their company. He was amazed at the first sight of her.

Maybe even earlier, during his days and nights abroad, whenever he encountered happy or sad things, Nan Qiuyue's figure would always flash in his mind. Of course, his thoughts were very pure at that time.

Nan Qiuyue has always been special to Xu Zhiye.

Xu Zhi could no longer deny this, as different emotions had already developed in his heart.

However, tonight is not a good time for a heart-to-heart talk.

Xu Zhi also felt that since he was much older than Nan Qiuyue, he had to consider more practical issues than her.

The relationship between the two families is here, I can't be like a young and foolish person and act impulsively.

Moreover, he was afraid in his heart. Nan Qiuyue was no longer the little girl she used to be. There were many people of the opposite sex of the same age around her. He saw it in the hot pot restaurant that day. She seemed more energetic when she was with people of the same age.

He was afraid that Nan Qiuyue's liking for him was due to adolescence. If he suddenly brought it up now, they might not even be able to be friends in the future.
