Time flowed by like water, slowly and quietly. Yan Cuo had become familiar with most of his classmates. The education system at Yanfen High School was indeed strict, with exams happening every few days.
The white test papers piled up one after another, and the students all looked full of morale. In this busy situation, Yancuo gradually had no time to think about other things and devoted himself to studying.
One ordinary afternoon, there was a sudden commotion in the senior class. Lu Xiaonan came running in breathlessly, hands on her hips, looking angry. "Oh my God, a new student transferred in from the senior class and confessed her love to Yu Muyang the moment she arrived. Yu Muyang ignored her, so she kept pestering him. You have no idea how contrived that was. It made me sick."
Yan Cuo's heart skipped a beat, and the scene from three years ago seemed to replay itself. Three years ago, he could still remain calm, but now he couldn't do that no matter what. He didn't dare to think about the scene where this happened.
Even though I knew Yu Muyang had rejected me, I still felt a pang of sadness. How could I keep such an outstanding girl?
Seeing that they didn't move, Lu Xiaonan pulled them and ran towards the senior high school teaching building.
In the dark crowd, Yu Muyang rejected the girl's confession with an expressionless face, but the girl was not discouraged at all. Her determined look pierced Yan Cuo's eyes, and she turned and ran away.
Sitting on a step of the stairs, feeling depressed but unable to cry, they couldn't be together at this moment.
They clearly agreed to be together when they grow up, but when will they grow up? Why are there always so many people who want to compete with her?
She stared blankly into the distance, thinking about the past two years. She wondered if he had been like this, rejecting one girl after another who showed interest in him, just to wait for her.
She should have believed it, why was she sad? This boy would only belong to her in the end, what a great gift God had given her.
The bell rang, and the students dispersed. Yan Cuo was about to get up and go back to the classroom. After sitting for a long time, he suddenly felt a little unsteady when he stood up. He almost fell, but a pair of hands caught him.
Yancuo turned around and looked at him. He just stared at her, his eyes clear and deep, as if he had a lot to say. But after a long moment, he only said, "Don't worry, I only like you. Be more confident."
She felt the warmth of his palm, which warmed her heart. She nodded firmly and ran to her classroom.
On the way back, Yan Cuo thought of the boy who had reached out to him at the police station entrance. He looked the same now, but now he was more determined. Three years was not a long time, but fortunately, he had always been by my side.
The senior girl in the third year of high school was named Tang Xue. She fell in love with Yu Muyang at first sight. After her first confession failed, she launched a strong pursuit of him, and everyone in the school knew that she was pursuing him.
He never responded to her, and whenever he saw her, he would turn and walk away. Gradually, everyone knew that she was in unrequited love, and some mocking voices reached her ears. She was a little sad, but helpless. She just liked him, so she had to try for herself once, even if it didn't work out in the end.
After repeated rejections, Tang Xue seemed to have finally given up and stopped chasing him around. Yan Cuo breathed a sigh of relief. She still went to and from get out of class every day, but she would often visit him, sometimes eating together, sometimes occasionally fetching him water. She did the little things she could, wanting him to concentrate on preparing for the college entrance exam.
After the college entrance examination, he will go to university. He will grow up soon, and I will follow in his footsteps.
After an evening study session, Yan Cuo and Su He were about to return to their dorm when Tang Xue stopped them. "Which of you is Yan Cuo? I need to talk to her about something." Yan Cuo stepped forward. "I'm Yan Cuo. What do you want from me?" Tang Xue glanced at her with a hint of disdain. "You're the one who wants to compete with me for Yu Muyang?" Yan Cuo looked at her with a firm gaze. "I've never considered competing with you because he's always been mine."
Tang Xue seemed to have heard a huge joke: "Yours? Where do you get the confidence? You are just a little girl, how can you compare with me? I tell you, stay away from him, or I will make you pay." After that, she left.
Yan Cuo stood there, thinking about Tang Xue's words. Su He looked at her for a long time without saying anything, and hurried over to comfort her: "Don't pay attention to her, she's just too conceited. I can see that Yu Muyang likes you." Yan Cuo looked at her and nodded, without any sign of inferiority. "Yeah, I believe in him, and I believe in myself too." After that, the two turned around and went back to the dormitory.
Yancuo covered herself with the quilt, thinking about what would happen that night. She still had to become better, she thought, and not let others think that the people around her were not worthy of her.
Closing her eyes, she saw him again, her chasing, him waiting. The two of them walked a long road together, towards their common destination.
Yancuo began to work harder, studying hard every day and concentrating on improving his grades.
She had already risen from the middle of the class to the top ten. This place was no different from junior high; if she wasn't careful, she'd be overtaken. She hadn't yet asked him what university he was aiming for; if it was Anhui University, it would be incredibly stressful.
Ancheng University is a top university in Ancheng, with the highest employment rate every year. If he wants to go there, then she must cheer up and make 120,000 efforts.
One day at noon, a classmate called Yan Cuo's name as he entered the classroom. "Someone is looking for you outside, go and see." Yan Cuo walked out of the classroom with a bit of doubt. Standing at the school gate were those two familiar yet unfamiliar people.
