Xu Xiaoxiao's tears suddenly fell. Every word was like a spell, lingering in her ears for a long time.
You only want her, so will I never have a chance?
She wanted to ask, but she was afraid to see the strangeness and indifference in his eyes. Perhaps once this veil was broken, they would no longer be just ordinary friends. He always kept everyone at a distance. He appeared warm and friendly, yet he maintained a friendly distance from everyone. Only Yancuo, only her, only she could make him express joy or sadness. Whether happy or sad, it was all because of her.
She took a deep breath, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and continued to help the drunken him up, pretending to be expressionless, "You are drunk, I will take you home."
Xu Lin glanced at her. Looking at the girl's red eyes, he seemed to see Yan Cuo crying back then, so fragile yet stubborn.
But when he looked closely at that face, it was clearly not her. Yan Cuo would never approach him intentionally. She always wanted to stay away from him, as if he were a cancer, never approaching him, never giving him a chance.
What a cruel woman! How could I fall into her hands? I was so foolish as to lose my whole heart and never get it back in the end.
But, it is still different after all. Love is love, and no matter what others do, they can never replace her.
Thinking of this, he let go of the girl's hand, tried to adjust his posture, asked the waiter for a glass of water, drank it, and left.
He left without any reluctance, without even looking at her, as if the person in front of him was air.
Xu Xiaoxiao felt that the sky in front of her eyes suddenly darkened, and her mind was in a mess. She looked at the man's leaving figure, and tears suddenly fell without warning, one after another, as if they would never end.
She ran out unwillingly, caught up with the still stumbling figure in front, wiped her tears vigorously, and looked up at him: "Xu Lin, how am I worse than Yan Cuo? Why can't you even look at me straight in the eye? I have been trying hard to become the person you like. I study hard and try to be quiet, but you are still stingy and refuse to look at me more than once. I am not bad either, why can't you just look at me?"
Xu Lin looked at the girl in front of him with red eyes but a stubborn expression. He was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. Then he looked at her and said calmly, "Maybe you are really good, you are excellent in every way, and you are no worse than her in any way, but I have given my heart to you, and I can't get it back. If I could take it back easily, then I wouldn't be so miserable and let myself become like this."
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with sadness and his voice became lower and lower. Listening carefully, he sounded a little pitiful.
People who cannot get the love they want are always like this. They cannot control their hearts, give their love away, but get no response. In the end, they are left with only pain and torture.
He is like this, and so is Xu Xiaoxiao. She should still be that carefree and unrestrained girl, and should not become what she is now, becoming the same as him.
He suddenly lowered his head and looked at the girl in front of him seriously, with a smile between his eyebrows, as if he had returned to the way he was when he first met her. His smile was light and as bright as the stars, but the words he said were resolute.
"You are a good girl. Don't like someone as heartless as me. You will get hurt. I am not a good person, but I don't want to hurt innocent people."
After saying that, he turned and left. Xu Xiaoxiao was immersed in his smile one second, but was shattered by his decisive words the next second.
She shouted loudly in his direction, "Xu Lin, I will not give up. If one day you don't like her anymore, please remember me. I'm still waiting for you."
He paused but did not stop. He continued walking forward with a calm expression on his face, as if the words of the person behind him did not exist at all. However, the bitterness at the corner of his mouth betrayed him.
You are still waiting for me, but what about the person I have been waiting for? When will he look back at me?
Xu Xiaoxiao watched his back slowly walk away until she could no longer see him, then she walked towards the school in a daze. She was in a daze all the way, passing one intersection after another, feeling that there was no place for her to belong in the world.
It wasn't until the piercing whistle rang in her ears that she woke up from her dream. She watched a bus slam to a stop not far in front of her. She was still a little dazed. The driver popped his head out and yelled at her, "Are you blind? Open your eyes and see where you are. You're on the motorway. I've been honking for a long time and you haven't reacted at all. You're so young and you think you can scam me? I'm an old man with elderly parents and young children. Don't come to me if you want to die."
She looked at the man in front of her cursing and suddenly felt extremely wronged. She had a thousand words in her heart that she wanted to vent and wanted to have a good cry, but she suppressed it. She slowly raised her head, wiped away her tears, looked at the driver in front of her, and said only one sentence, "I'm sorry."
The driver was startled by her tearful face, but quickly regained his composure and drove away. Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the cars speeding by, one after another, all at such a high speed, each one heading for the same destination.
But she didn't know where to go. There was no one she expected anymore. The only person she had no feelings for her and was cold and resolute.
I gave a bitter smile, but the fighting spirit of not giving up was ignited in my heart. What does it matter? Since I like it, I can't be afraid of the storms ahead.
She walked back to the sidewalk and headed towards the school. This time she wiped away her tears, calmed herself down, and regained her strength.
Love is something mysterious and unpredictable. Don't be in a hurry. Take it slowly. He will always be able to see himself and discover that this girl is also very outstanding and good.
Also worth being liked.
By the time I got to school, the second evening study session had already ended, and the class was still sitting in their seats. The incandescent lights in the classroom had dimmed, but they still burned stubbornly. I watched my classmates diligently working hard, capturing the passion of their senior year.
I can't slack off for a moment. That person is so outstanding, he will definitely go to the best university and have the best life in the future. I must catch up with him and stand at the same level as him, so that I will have more confidence to like him and pursue him.
By then, whether it was success or failure, there would be an ending. If he accepted me, I would definitely tell him that this Xu Xiaoxiao was not bad at all.
