Chapter 212: Setting Off, Celebration (Part 1)

Shen Lingyao, listening from the window upstairs, heard Zhao Qingfeng’s words clearly.

She was nervous, joyful, happy, and also panicked.

This was a complexity of emotions she had never encountered in her life.

The breeze blew.

A pink diary lay flat on the desk.

Rows of delicate handwriting, still warm from tears shed an hour ago, seemed like lively little sprites, capturing her current mood.

“If this isn’t just a beautiful dream…”

“Brother Qingfeng is finally going to confess, isn’t he…”

“He’s so silly, giving up Tsinghua and Peking University for me…”

“Why does he love me so much…”

“Is it because we grew up together…”

“Damn Brother Qingfeng, I’ve become so dumb, dumb to the point of not figuring it out, I’ve really turned into a silly pheasant…”

“Actually, no matter where you go, I would have agreed to be with you, I definitely would have…”

“But…”

“You’re so outstanding now, you have a successful career, you’re the provincial top scorer, and I’m just an ordinary girl… Dad always said men change when they have money, will you really love me forever and ever…”

“If one day you stop loving me…”

“I would surely be very sad…”

“Hehe, I’m not scared! I’ve already decided, if you don’t love me, then I’ll go to the ends of the earth, to a place where I’ll never see you again, huh, and stop thinking about you…”

“But… I still really want you to love me forever and ever…”

“You don’t know yet, but in this life, I’ve only ever liked you…”

“Alright, if you confess tonight, I’ll agree…”

“Then…”

“I hope you’ll also silently agree in your heart, to love me forever…”

“? (。???。)?”

……………………………………………

Some are happy, some are sorrowful.

Shen Lingyao finally mustered the ‘courage to accept a confession’, returning to her usual self, bouncing down the stairs.

Meanwhile.

Liu Ruoxin, walking by the Wanliu River in the provincial city, couldn’t find happiness.

It was too painful…

She should have never given up on Zhao Qingfeng as her dad suggested.

Now look.

He’s not only become a big shot at Erlunsi but has also transformed into the provincial top scorer.

Either of these achievements was already better than Li Jiahang, whom she met a few days ago.

“Sigh…”

Thinking this, Liu Ruoxin sighed deeply, glancing at Li Jiahang running back with two ice creams, and immediately switched to a smiling face, waving, “Jiahang, slow down, don’t fall!”

Her words were sweet, but her heart was filled with disdain.

Not just because of the above reasons, but even in terms of appearance, Li Jiahang couldn’t compare to Zhao Qingfeng.

In Liu Ruoxin’s eyes, although Zhao Qingfeng was lean, he always had a certain clever aura. His dark, ink-like eyes and his bronze-colored, chiseled face weren’t as handsome as a movie star, but they had a different kind of unforgettable charm, which only grew stronger the longer they were apart.

And Li Jiahang?

Short, stout, and unattractive.

His toad-like eyes behind black-framed glasses always made Liu Ruoxin feel disgusted whenever they locked gazes.

“Ruoxin, we rarely get some alone time, let’s go rowing at Nanhu Park later?”

Li Jiahang had joined Old Liu’s company, and the legend was about to enter internal testing; they’d be busy in a few days.

“Sure!”

Liu Ruoxin took Li Jiahang’s hand proactively, “But don’t exert yourself too much when rowing. The company’s about to get busy, and you’ll need your hands for coding. I wouldn’t want them to get hurt.”

Her gentle words, along with the gentle breeze, blew into Li Jiahang’s heart.

He had never been in love or pursued by anyone before; this was the first time a girl had taken the initiative to hold his hand.

“…”

In an instant.

Li Jiahang felt his face heat up and his heart race, a natural reaction without any wicked thoughts.

Turning his head, he saw Liu Ruoxin looking beautiful, youthful, and radiant next to him. The wind lifted the hair on her forehead, teasing his face and heart.
