After rebirth, I cut off my love brain sister and want to be the queen

Zhou Minghe stood behind me against the wall. I lowered my head to do the things at hand and couldn't see what he looked like.

However, I decided to confess some things to him.

"Zhou Minghe, thank you." My voice was soft but sincere.

Zhou Minghe seemed stunned for a moment, and asked in a nonchalant tone, "What are you thanking me for? You took care of me all night last night."

I folded the quilt and turned to look at him. "Even if you didn't say it directly, I know you meant well to me. You gave me a job, so I could earn money, and saved me from having to find work outside and get into trouble. You moved in next door to me, apparently asking me to take care of you, but in reality, you were using your own way to protect my safety."

I made it clear, and I thought Zhou Minghe would make excuses, but he just chuckled and said, "I'm glad you know."

I looked embarrassed and whispered, "Why are you so nice to me? The last time you came back, I didn't treat you well. I even said some unpleasant things to you."

Zhou Minghe looked down at me with a scoundrel-like demeanor and said, "I can be nice to whoever I want. I don't need a reason."

"You still... like me?" I was a little surprised. My face turned red when I asked the question. It felt like this was unlikely.

Zhou Minghe raised the corner of his lips and snorted: "Wrong, I don't like you."

Me: “…” It was even more embarrassing.

Zhou Minghe turned around and walked towards his cloakroom. Without avoiding me, he took off his gray bathrobe. I was so scared that I turned my back quickly.

I asked him awkwardly, "If you don't like me, why do you do so much for me? You can just ignore me. You have no obligation to help me anyway."

Zhou Minghe was changing clothes, and his voice came faintly: "To tell you the truth, although you and your uncle broke up, he told me before that I should take good care of you. Is this a reason?"

My heart trembled violently, and my eyes were inexplicably filled with soreness.

"You have taken care of me many times. You can't take care of me forever, right? If you do that, I'll be useless." I said self-deprecatingly.

Zhou Minghe had already put on his clothes and walked up to me, buttoning his shirt cuffs. "Why are you getting more timid as you get older? You can't even look me in the eye?"

My face flushed, and I whispered, "I don't have any hobbies."

Zhou Minghe was amused by what I said, and then asked me, "Can you wear a tie?"

I was stunned, and the next second, he put a tie in my hand: "Help me."

"I can't." This is the truth.

Zhou Minghe immediately grabbed my wrist and said in a low voice, "I'll teach you."

My fingers trembled, and immediately, as if I had received an electric shock, I gently broke free: "Zhou Minghe, I want to find another job. I will help you take care of your side, but you don't need to pay me so much."

Zhou Minghe's eyes froze, as if my rejection hurt him.

"Why are you rejecting me so much?" Zhou Minghe's face suddenly darkened. "If it was Su Beicheng who gave you the money, you would definitely take it without saying a word. Why would you refuse me when I give it to you? After all, I can't compare to him, right?"

"No." I bit my lip and shook my head. "I'm not comparing myself to any of you. I just feel that I've already stepped out of my old circle. Every step I take from now on, I need to take on my own. No one can do it for me. I don't want to take your money because I know it's not easy for you to earn it. Like last night, you drank so much that you vomited. Seeing you in pain, I suddenly understood this."

Zhou Minghe was stunned, as if he had not expected that I would say that I felt sorry for him. His expression changed from shock to astonishment, and finally to joy.

He picked up his tie and started tying it, his voice returning to its usual calm tone: "So, you still care about me. I know I shouldn't compare me with Su Beicheng, but a man's pride always plays tricks on me. I will try not to mention him in the future. Now, here, it's just us."

I frowned and said, "Zhou Minghe, please forgive me for not being able to go that far with you. I feel it's too immoral."

Zhou Minghe shrugged: "I said, I will wait for you and won't force you now."

"I don't believe you." I looked him in the eyes.

I know very well what Zhou Minghe did in the past and what kind of person he is.

Zhou Minghe's expression was a little torn. He lowered his head, secretly gnashing his teeth, and then said slowly: "Yin Jingjing, do you know why I said I didn't like you just now?"

I was stunned and nodded: "I know, I don't like it literally."

Zhou Minghe raised his head, his eyes fixed on my face. "Then do you know there's a difference between liking and loving?"

My heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and I looked at him in confusion.

Zhou Minghe reached out and gently stroked my face, his fingertips scratching it lightly: "I liked you before, and when I liked you, I wanted to possess you, just like a child monopolizing a toy, if I liked it, I would hold it tightly in my hands. But now, my feelings for you are different."

Listening to his gentle voice slowly rising, my heart seemed to be tightened, and I stared at him blankly.

Zhou Minghe tied the knot of his tie slowly, then pushed it up and tightened it, and the tie was tied.

He continued, "I heard that when you love someone, you can't bear to touch her again. You want to give her the best things in the world, protect her, and accompany her, but you don't want to force her or hurt her. You would rather stay away from her than see her cry."

My heart was pounding, I couldn't believe it.

When I gave up on love and thought it was a myth, there was a person who told me with his true heart that he fell in love with me.

Is it ironic? Yes, it's a little funny.

There was a deep affection in Zhou Minghe's eyes that I couldn't understand. He just looked at me quietly, and then said, "Even if you really married Su Beicheng, so what? I still love you. When I miss you, I will go to see you, even if it's just from a long distance. I won't feel any regret when I see you."

My nose felt sore, and the next second, I lowered my head, and tears fell on the floor with a plop, and what appeared to be small flowers.

"Then you are destined to be disappointed. In my opinion, there is no such thing as love in this world. Even if you tell me so today, I still don't believe it." I smiled indifferently, turned around and walked out. Finally, I hid back in my own home, buried my face in the quilt, and cried uncontrollably.

I don’t know if Zhou Minghe, who was stabbed by me or left standing there, is sad again, but I really don’t deserve to hear such affectionate words from him. His love is too heavy, I can’t take it, and it is destined to break him into pieces.

I heard the door of the next room close, and then the corridor was quiet.

Zhou Minghe didn't come to see me again, and I calmed down and went to school.

Zhou Yin was standing at the door of the classroom, as if waiting for me.

I walked over and Zhou Yin said to me, "There are still more than ten minutes left in class, let's go for a walk."

I nodded, and we walked towards the corridor ahead.

Zhou Yin looked at me, hesitant to speak: "Zhou Minghe wouldn't move in next door to you for no reason, would he?"
