Failed To Ran Away| LK Adaptation |Book 1

Chapter 187|The Friendship Started From There

His thoughts drifted, as if he had returned to a few years ago.

That year, Xie Shi'an was only nineteen years old.

He had witnessed the ugliness and complexity of human nature with his own eyes. Furthermore, he had just experienced the death of his loved one. His heart was dead and empty.

On the plane to study abroad, he refused the food and water sent by the flight attendant and only closed his eyes to sleep the entire way.

However, he couldn't fall asleep at all. His eyes reddened as he recalled the scene of his sister's tragic death.

Tears silently dripped from the corners of his eyes as he hurriedly wiped them away.

Not wanting the passengers around him to notice anything, Xie Shi'an suppressed his emotions and clenched his hands tightly together. However, he still couldn't help but tremble.

Suddenly, he heard a soft and sweet voice beside him. "Hello, my lip balm fell to the ground by accident. I think it rolled under your seat. Can you help me pick it up?"

Xie Shi'an opened his eyes and saw a bright and beautiful face. The girl's eyes were big, as if they were filled with a pool of clear and lively water, and she was looking at him without blinking.

He didn't say anything and bent over to help her pick up the lipstick.

The girl thanked him with a sweet smile. She turned around and took out a handful of colorful milk candies from her bag and handed them over.

"When I'm in a bad mood, I especially like to eat this kind of candy. After eating it, even my worst mood will turn sweeter."

Her eyes were gentle and sincere. "This is for you. I hope you'll be in a good mood too."

Xie Shi'an looked at her in silence and did not take it.

"Try one. It's very sweet. I'm not lying to you."

The girl peeled one and handed it to him. She gently insisted, "You'll know when you try it."

Xie Shi'an didn't know why, but he still took the candy

Under the girl's expectant gaze, he put it into his mouth.

A wisp of milky sweetness spread on the bitter and numb tip of his tongue.

She smiled and asked him, "Sweet?"

Xie Shi'an's lips moved as he said in a hoarse voice, "Sweet."

That was the first word he had said that day, and that was how they had gotten to know each other.

She placed a handful of candy in his hand and smiled. "Then I'll give them all to you. I hope they can make your days better."

The candy didn't turn his mood sweet. However, it more or less shifted thanks to the girl who gave him the candy.

That was perhaps the most memorable candy in his life, not only because it was really sweet, but also because the girl had inadvertently given him kindness and warmth.

Knowing that they were going to study in a European country and that the school they were going to wasn't far away, the girl was very surprised. She turned her head slightly. "I'm Sang Lisa, what's yours?"

At that moment, a ray of sunlight shone in through the cabin window, and her fair and clear face had a sweet smile, as if it was covered with a layer of holy light.

Xie Shi'an looked at her in a daze for a long time before he said, "I'm Xie Shi'an."

Before he boarded the plane, he only had disheartened hatred for this world and no expectations. But when he got off the plane, he saw Sang Lisa waving at him with a smile while saying goodbye.
