At 35, Jiang Xiaoli went wild skiing with friends, only to die in an avalanche. She woke up to find herself back at 16, a year when her beloved mother was still alive!
Given a second chance, ...
Zhong Yuan's carefully planned surprise confession suddenly unfolded on Wednesday night.
In the evening, the five shareholders of "307" held a meeting at a small company outside the school to finalize the marketing plan for the opening. As soon as they stepped out, they were amazed by the flower petals and fairy lights that covered the roadside.
Yan Chengcheng covered her mouth and screamed, "Look, it's all rose petals! What's going on?"
Jiang Xiaoli had her answer, and she remained silent.
Hu Jingxin looked on with envy, "Chengcheng, come on, let's go along the flower petal path and see, I have a feeling someone is confessing their love!"
Yan Chengcheng nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, how romantic! I feel like this is something that only happens in TV dramas!"
The two girls ran forward with small, quick steps, while the remaining three girls hurried to catch up.
Ren Zhiyi frowned. "The petal path starts right at the entrance of our company. Something feels off to me."
Chang Yue hugged both Jiang Xiaoli and Ren Zhiyi, saying, "Who cares if he's right or not? Let's go over and see for ourselves."
The path, paved with flower petals and surrounded by fairy lights, stretches for more than thirty meters, ending at a small square.
When they got closer, they saw Zhong Yuan holding a guitar, standing in front of a heart and letters made of small candles.
The girls exchanged bewildered glances, and Chang Yue's gossipy eyes lit up instantly. "Xiao Li, what's wrong with Brother Yuan...?"
Jiang Xiaoli didn't answer. She pointed ahead and said, "Let's watch Brother Yuan's demonstration first."
When Hu Jingxin saw the three candles spelling out HJX on the ground, her heart skipped a beat, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Yan Chengcheng's arm.
Seeing that she was a little shy, Zhong Yuan blushed slightly. "Xin Xin, I want to sing you a song. I hope you like it."
Accompanied by somewhat clumsy guitar playing, the singing drifted across the small square.
Fate brought us together, but we sensed something without even speaking.
Love fears nothing more than hesitation; looking back only brings memories.
Loneliness intensifies because of you; I can't bear the long midnight hours.
No distance can stop my longing...
...
My heart wants you to hear it, my love wants you to see it.
I'm not afraid to admit how much I cherish you.
When I miss you
I hope you receive my heartfelt message.
My heart wants you to hear it, my love wants you to see it.
Would you like to share every day?
……
Tai Zhengxiao's "I Want You to Hear My Heart" is Hu Jingxin's favorite song this year.
The boy in front of me wasn't playing the guitar very well; he had many wrong notes, and he sang off-key from time to time.
But the burning passion in his eyes made Hu Jingxin feel her face flush and her heart burn.
After finishing a song, Zhong Yuan put his guitar aside and took a bouquet of bright red roses from Da Fu.
He took two steps forward. "Xin Xin, actually, I fell for you the first time I saw you, Little Pear knows that, but you're just too wonderful. You're beautiful, lively, cute, and outstanding..."
Your countless virtues make me hesitate; I'm afraid I'm not good enough for you. But this feeling of liking you torments my heart every day. I'm afraid that if I don't say some things, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
...
Xin Xin, I like you. Would you give me a chance? I'm willing to dedicate my whole life to making you happy every day!
After saying that, he pushed the rose in his hand forward and closed his eyes in fear.
His actions stunned all the girls except Jiang Xiaoli.
Even the usually calm and collected Ren Zhiyi covered her mouth and whispered, "Brother Yuan, this is so touching!"
Hu Jingxin was completely stunned by his string of declarations of love.
Yan Chengcheng, who was standing to the side, had already let go of her arm. She said excitedly, "Xinxin! How romantic! Say yes! Say yes!"
Jiang Xiaoli quickly stepped forward and pulled the guy who was egging her on back. She said to Hu Jingxin, "Xinxin, Yuan-ge has really liked you for a long time, but whether you accept his confession or not, just follow your heart."
Hu Jingxin nodded, her cheeks flushed.
She hesitated for a moment, then noticed that Zhong Yuan's outstretched arm, which was holding the roses, was trembling slightly. She quickly took the bouquet from him and asked, "Brother Yuan, is your arm alright?"
Zhong Yuan stared in disbelief at the roses in her arms, then asked in surprise, "Xin Xin, you accept me?"
Unlike her usual carefree self, Hu Jingxin lowered her head and nodded shyly, "I think we can give it a try first..."
Zhong Yuan nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay! No problem, Xin Xin, I will definitely treat you well!"
Even a trial period is a good start!
Upon seeing Hu Jingxin accept the flowers, relatives and friends from both sides stepped forward to congratulate them.
Chang Yue punched Dafu in the chest, exclaiming, "Why didn't you tell me?!"
After taking two hits, Dafu grabbed her fist and said, "Hehe, Dayuan asked me to keep this a secret for him, even Xiaoli doesn't know! I'm afraid you two will give it away!"
Jiang Xiaoli testified to Dafu, "I only know that Brother Yuan is going to confess his feelings, but I have no idea when, where or how he will confess."
Yan Chengcheng came over and put her arm around her, "Well, you kept it a secret well enough!"
She pouted. "Do you believe me if I say I don't really want to know all this?"
Yan Chengcheng burst out laughing, "I believe that!"
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew in, extinguishing all the candles that were already half-extinguished.
The group paused for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.
Jiang Xiaoli said with a smile, "Brother Yuan, the wind is really giving you face, waiting until now to come!"
Zhong Yuan patted his chest, still shaken, and said, "When you guys had your meeting, the candles were blown out countless times. The three of us brothers were just using this one candle!"
Hu Jingxin couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Idiot!"
At this moment, Zong Jia brought over cleaning tools from the side. "Alright, let's get started. The candles are easy to clean up, but the flower petals over there..."
Upon hearing his words, the group turned around and looked back. A gust of wind had blown the rose petals that had been neatly laid out on the path, scattering them everywhere.
Dafu resignedly took a large broom and said, "Alright, let's clean up this mess!"
The three of them swept up the flower petals with brooms, while the girls collected the candles and took down the fairy lights tied to the tree one by one.
When Zhong Yuan saw Hu Jingxin start to move, he quickly pulled her back. "Xinxin, just leave it there. I'll clean up after I finish sweeping."
Hu Jingxin smiled and shook her head, "It's okay, we'll help you tidy up faster."
Yan Chengcheng continued dismantling the fairy lights, muttering, "It's different when you have a boyfriend; someone cares about you when you're working."
Chang Yue asked with a smile, "Why does Chengcheng want to be in a relationship too?"
Yan Chengcheng shook her head, "Right now, I just want to make money! I don't want to find a partner!"
Ren Zhiyi chuckled, "Yes, all I want is to make money!"
After packing their things, Jiang Xiaoli and the others escorted the girls who were staying at the dormitory back to school.
