Chapter 1207 Will you marry me
Outside the convenience store, Stella was almost lying on the car window, curious, "What are they doing here." Clarence glanced down her line of sight and yanked the person back up again, "Just wait."
Stella found it strange and wondered, "Do you know something?"
Clarence raised his eyebrows without a trace.
Sure enough.
Stella adjusted her sitting position and leaned a little towards him, "Did Chan tell you what's going on."
Clarence tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, "No."
Without waiting for Stella to continue asking, he added, "I'm just curious, too, about what all happened that night."
"What night?"
Clarence gazed at her and spoke slowly and deliberately, "The night you tugged on my sleeve."
Stella: ".
"
She gradually realized what was going on.
A long time ago, Stella said: "That is to say, Chan is that night, met Winnie."
Clarence said, "Maybe."
Stella re-looked at the convenience store, but due to the reason that the distance is a bit far away, completely unable to see clearly what is happening inside, can only see the blurred silhouette of a person. She spoke slowly, "Chan should have been looking for me for a long time that night."
Stella gently closed her eyes, it had been a long, long time ago, so long that she was already going to forget.
That was probably the darkest, most powerless night of her life.
She didn't even know when it would be light.
Nor did she know what awaited her.
But unfortunately for her, she met Clarence at Twilight to keep her life going.
But she overlooked how desperate and angry Chan was when she watched her being taken away by that group of people this one night.
It was also the night that both she and Chan probably saw hope again.
They are the people who live in desperate situations, and even if they see just a glimmer of light, they will try their best to grab it.
At that moment, Clarence took her hand: "By now the question that has been bothering you should have been answered."
He refers to why Chan fell in love with Winnie.
Stella slowly opened her eyes and laughed silently, "I really didn't expect that Chan actually knew Winnie so early, nor did I expect that it would be under such circumstances......"
"I was actually thinking about one."
"What?"
"If nothing had happened to THE Steward family back then, we probably would have gotten engaged too."
Stella: "?"
Clarence looked at her sideways, "Phoebe Steward has always kind of wanted to marry me."
Stella: "..."
She moved and tried to pull her hand back, but was unsuccessful.
"Come on, that's her, maybe I don't have it in me."
Clarence's lips curled down, "Which means that no matter what, we'll get to know each other, under circumstances you didn't expect."
Stella was silent for a while: "Have you stopped saying earthy love stories and changed to this kind of life philosophy now?"
"I can talk about it if you want to hear it."
Stella immediately raised her hand to interrupt, "No."
Meanwhile, in the convenience store.
Winnie's eyes were already filled with tears when she looked back.
Channing is standing right beside her, with a long and straight figure.
Winnie had never noticed his height as much as she did now, and she choked out, "I can't believe you...... are already so much taller than me."
At that time, he had just reached her shoulder.
Channing knew that she had remembered.
He took the two bottles of hot milk in his hand, paid the bill, and led her out the door, "It's been almost ten years."
Winnie somehow couldn't control her tears.
Yes, that skinny little boy has become a boy who can hold up the sky for her.
Exiting the convenience store, Winnie stops and looks to the corner.
The original empty place is now covered by layers of cardboard boxes.
She opened her mouth and subconsciously murmured, "Did you find your sister that night......"
"No."
Winnie looked up at him, "So she ......"
Even though almost ten years have passed, she feels bad when she thinks of that night.
Channing stood in front of her, leaned down slightly, raised his hand to wipe the tears from her face, his voice low and slow: "She met Clarence that night." Winnie remembered and got it right.
Stella, Twilight, Clarence.
She cried and cried and laughed out, "This is too much of a coincidence, I really didn't expect that it was actually you that I met that night, and your sister, I ......" Channing said, "It shouldn't be described as coincidence, it's fate."
"That night she met Clarence, and I met you."
"The one who was protected and taken care of was never you, but I. If I hadn't met you that night, I wouldn't be who I am now."
Winnie looked at him with teary eyes, "So, when we met later, you recognized me at first sight?"
Channing laughed, "What are you thinking? I recognized you on TV a long time ago."
Hearing his answer, Winnie realized how stupid her question was.
She almost forgot that she is still an actress and is often active in the public camera......
Channing added, "That night is a memory I don't want to remember. But at the same time, it holds some of the best memories I've had in that time." Winnie's fingertips trembled a little.
Channing took her in his arms and whispered, "Everyone has a past they don't want to face, and so do I."
Winnie closed her eyes, she knew, what he was referring to.
It was only after a long time that Winnie spoke in a whisper, "I'm glad I met you at that time."
Channing hugged her a little tighter and without warning said, "Will you marry me."
Winnie was stunned, "What?"
Channing slowly let go of her, the tip of his tongue against his palate, and he knew that what was said was abrupt and not even prepared.
He gathered his statements and rejoined, "I ......"
"I do."
