I sang my secret love into a song and gave it to you (4)

  Although Lucy had already made up her mind that the person behind her was Lu Senxiang before she turned around, when she saw Lu Senxiang's puzzled expression after turning around, she was even more shocked than him. She stared at him with wide eyes and stuttered: "You... how did you end up here?"

  "I'm going to Ah Liang's house!" Lu Senxiang raised his hand and pointed to the villa in front of him, with a faint smile in his eyes. He paused for a moment and then asked seriously, "Shouldn't this be my question? How did you end up here? Speak quickly! You said you had something going on and couldn't accompany me, was it because you came to spy on Ah Liang?"

  Facing Lu Senxiang's questioning, Lu Xiyang suddenly became speechless.

  Actually, having a crush on Duan Chenliang isn't anything surprising, she's just another girl from Yu Hua High School, she can also have girly feelings and fall in love with an excellent boy. It's just that Lu Xi Yang doesn't want to admit to others that she's also such a worldly person.

  Lucy Yang hastily avoided Lu Senxiang's gaze, her eyes darting back and forth. It was only then that she noticed the wooden guitar behind Lu Senxiang's back. Lucy Yang rotated her eyeballs, had an idea, pointed to the guitar on Lu Senxiang's back with her finger, and asked: "Can you play the guitar?"

  As expected, Lu Sen Xiang smiled as soon as he heard Lu Xi Yang's words. He proudly raised his face, like a child showing off his exceptional skills, and happily said: "Of course! Do you want to hear?"

  Lucy Yang shook her head, she should go home too.

  Who would have thought that Lu Senxiang pretended not to see her reaction, and took advantage of her distraction to pull her hand, running towards the beautiful villa.

  Lucy was held tightly by Lucas, no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't shake off the hand that Lucas was holding her with. It wasn't until he pulled her to the front of the villa, onto the lawn that was almost withered, that Lucas finally let go of Lucy's hand.

  Lucy's hand was grasped by him, and she rubbed her wrist while staring at Lucas, speechless. Lucas, however, burst out laughing and sat down on the floor with his guitar, as if nothing had happened.

  Lucy Yang cast a disgusted glance at Lu Senxiang sitting on the lawn and turned to leave without saying another word.

  The rhythmic guitar sound drifted into Lucy Yang's ears at this time, and behind her came Lu Senxiang's melodious singing voice: "I'm afraid I won't have the chance to say goodbye to you, because maybe we'll never see each other again... Tomorrow I'll be leaving, familiar places and you, my tears will fall when we part ways."

  Lucy Yang was taken aback for a moment, slowly turned around, and saw Lu Senxiang smiling at her.

  The boy strummed the guitar and sang to her: "I will remember your face, I will cherish the thoughts you give me, these days in my heart, will never be erased..."

  Lucy Yang looked at Lu Senxiang in front of her, couldn't help but walk over, sat down beside him, and listened to him play this song she had never heard before yet felt incredibly moving.

  The guitar sound and Lusen Xiang's singing pierced the quiet night sky, Lucy Yang sat beside Lusen Xiang, her legs crossed, her face slightly tilted upwards, there were a few stars twinkling in the night sky, it felt really good. After a while, she turned her head, took a glance at Lusen Xiang's handsome profile, and suddenly had a subtle feeling that swept through her whole body, for the first time, she discovered that Lusen Xiang was actually not a bad guy.

  After a few minutes, Lu Senxiang finally stopped. He raised the corner of his mouth and said to Lucy Yang with satisfaction: "It seems that only my beautiful singing voice can keep you."

  "Less stinky beauty." Lucy Yang pretended to be disdainful, her fingers still tangled in the weeds at her feet, as if she wanted to pull them out.

  "Hey, now, do you want to give me an explanation?" Lu Senxiang suddenly put down his guitar and looked at Lucy Yang beside him with a serious expression. "Didn't you say you had something going on? How did you end up at Ah Liang's house? Are you close with them?"

  Lucy Yang suddenly lifted her head, facing Lu Senxiang's serious gaze, making her somewhat at a loss, but trying to maintain a calm and composed demeanor. She thought she had dodged the bullet, but didn't expect Lu Senxiang to still be fixated on this issue.

  Lucy Yang replied calmly, "I was on my way home and happened to see him here, so I knew his house was originally here. And you? Were you going to ask me to accompany you somewhere?"

  "Join the competition." Lu Senxiang smiled and pointed to the guitar beside him, continuing, "You're really not a good friend at all."

  Lucy Yang originally wanted to say "I'm not familiar with you", but the words were swallowed back into her mouth. Every time Lucy faced Lu Senxiang's over-familiarity, she didn't dare directly reject him, nor did she dare clarify that they weren't actually familiar, nor did she dare easily refuse his requests. She thought he was like a child, as if one careless move would make him cry loudly.

  Maybe it's because of the irresistible charm on Lusen Xiang's body.

  Lucy Yang casually lied and said: "Something's up at home, can't accompany you to go. How was your match then?"

  "It's okay, I guess." Lu Senxiang's mouth corners slightly rose, with a faint smile in his eyes. After a while, he suddenly stood up like he was electrocuted and said, "Oh no, I almost forgot that I came to find Ah Liang because of chatting with you here."

  Lusen Xiang patted his hands and buttocks, then bent down to pick up his guitar. Lucy Yang thought it was strange that Lusen Xiang came to find Duan Chenliang so late at night. What made her even more curious was what had happened to Duan Chenliang.

  Is it because of that old man?

  The "old man" mentioned by mom. The "old man" who was knocked to death.

  If not, why would Duan Chenliang appear at the entrance of her residential area for no reason? Why was he staring at that wide road?

  "Lu Senxiang..." Just as Lu Senxiang turned to walk towards the villa's entrance, Lucy Yang finally spoke up and called out to him. She clutched her own hem tightly, praying that she had nothing to do with that "old man", while looking at Lu Senxiang and asking, "Duan Chenliang... did something happen in Duan Chenliang's family?"

  Lusen Xiang slightly furrowed his brow, he saw the girl's unease.

  He had promised Duan Chenliang that he wouldn't tell anyone, but when he saw the tears and worry in Lucy's eyes, his throat involuntarily let out a small, heavy voice: "He... Grandma has passed away."

  She had actually guessed it a long time ago, hadn't she? She just didn't want to see that young man sad.

  This was the closest she had ever been to death, so close. She bit her teeth hard and tried her best to hold herself back, struggling to push back the tears that lingered in her eyes.

  Suddenly, the villa's gate was opened. A boy wearing a white shirt stood straight at the entrance, his eyebrows furrowed, seemingly puzzled by Lucy Yang's appearance. Lucy Yang met the boy's questioning gaze, this time she didn't avoid it, she looked at him with a mix of sadness and heartache, wishing to rush over and give him a warm hug.

  But this didn't last long, and Lucien soon realized he shouldn't be here.

  Duan Chenliang was not Lu Senxiang, and he wouldn't have believed her even if she said she just happened to be passing by. After all, he had met her at the entrance of her residential compound, and she had even called out his name. Before long, Lu Xiyang's suspended heart finally put down its guard. Duan Chenliang didn't ask her any questions, but instead naturally shifted his gaze, looking at Lu Senxiang with a faint expression and saying, "When did you arrive?"

  "Just arrived." Lu Senxiang immediately replied, then turned his face to look at Lucy Yang and said, "Three thousand, let's go in and have some fun together."

  "No." Lucas Yang immediately shook his head, as if it were an instinctive reaction, and made the decision without hesitation.

  "Haha, I knew it! Many girls in school want to visit Al's home!" Lusenxiang's face was filled with smiles again, he seemed very satisfied with Lucyang's response.

  In fact, she was also one of the many girls in school. No one knew how much she yearned to go in, how much she wanted to see his home, see his room. But she was afraid of seeing the noble and luxurious decorations inside, afraid that her heart would involuntarily swell with a sense of inferiority again. She was even more afraid that Duan Chenliang would also think of her as an infatuated girl.

  She can't be like them, at least in his eyes, she has to be different from them.

  Suddenly, Lucy felt someone pushing her from behind to move forward. She stumbled a few steps forward and only turned around to find that the person pushing her was Lucas. Lucas pushed her while saying: "Let's go, let's go, come on in and have some fun."

  Lucy Yang furrowed her brow, at a loss for what to do next.

  But in the end, Lu Senxiang's astonishing strength pushed Lucy Yang to the front door of the villa. Lucy Yang looked up at a loss, and Duan Chenliang suddenly walked out from inside and quickly closed the door of the villa.

  Lusen Xiang looked at Duan Chenliang in surprise, while Lusi Yang lowered his head in embarrassment, wishing he could dig a hole and crawl into it.

  The air around seemed to solidify at that moment, as if even a slight movement would produce the sound of shattering air.

  Why did he close the door? What does he mean?

  Is there some inevitable reason? Or is it...

  Stop making excuses for him! Stop deceiving yourself! Lucy Yang felt both sad and angry, this complex emotion made her feel suffocated.

  She liked him so carefully, even if she was always timid and didn't dare to raise her head in front of him. However, when she saw him appear at the gate of her residential area, she rushed downstairs and stood behind him without hesitation. Although she had guessed something at that time, she still did not want to believe that the car accident had hurt his family members. She continued to pray for him in her heart, praying that all the bad news would stay away from him, praying that he could become the happiest person in this world. She even hoped to give him the last bit of warmth she had left. And what about him? He didn't even want to give her a simple invitation.

  In front of him, she was like a clown, no matter how hard she tried, she was always a clown. No, she wasn't even as good as a clown, at least a clown had the ability to make the audience laugh, but her? He never smiled because of her.

  Although Lucy Yang decided to break the silence, she had to salvage her small self-esteem and absolutely could not like someone so unscrupulously. So, she calmly raised her head in her Western-style dress, smiled sweetly at Lu Senxiang, and said: "I should go home."

  Having said that, Lucien Yang smiled and turned around, taking heavy steps one by one to leave.

  At that moment, she thought someone would come forward to chase her and apologize to her, even if it was just an insincere "sorry". But everything didn't go as she expected. The apologetic "sorry" she heard was actually from Lu Senxiang to Duan Chenliang.

  It was clear that she needed an apology most, yet no one came forward to apologize.

  Lucy Yang closed her eyes in despair, constantly asking herself if the person behind her was really the one she had liked for seven years. Was he really worth her liking?

  All her one-sided devotion for seven years was transformed into eternal ridicule that swarmed towards her in this moment.
