"You want to go home, don't you."
Liu Chi's smile froze on his face.
He kept telling himself in his heart: I am good to him for a purpose. The tenderness is just for him, and the care is measured - as long as he still remembers "I am lying to him", he will still be safe and can take his heart back at the critical moment.
But Shen Jibai never believed that he was lying.
This person looked at him and everything he saw was true from beginning to end. Even the words "you want to go home" were said with certainty, as if he knew who he was better than himself.
Liu Chi suddenly understood.
He has deceived many people in his life, but Shen Jibai has never been deceived by him - because he has never pretended to be someone else in front of Shen Jibai. Every calculation he thought he made was truly gentle in Shen Jibai's eyes.
He opened his mouth, and the lie rolled on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't say it out.
What he is best at in his life is not pretending or acting.
You are lying to yourself.
Intention: He thought that he was a bystander in this story, and it had nothing to do with him; until someone saw through his sincerity and walked out of the story with him - the destination is not a place, but where you are, he is.
