The math evening self-study class was going well, but suddenly there was a "pop" and the power went out in the whole school. The whole class was agitated and there was a commotion in the classroom.

Song Yumeng was afraid of the dark, and the whole classroom was suddenly dark. She was very scared, and her body instinctively leaned towards Yi Ran, hugged her arms with both hands, and slid down with her right hand to hold her left palm.

"I'm afraid..."

The voice was small and trembling, forming a sharp contrast with the excited voices of others. Such a timid and pitiful girl immediately aroused Yi Ran's desire to protect her, and his breathing and heart trembled violently.

She was overwhelmed by the blood, and her left hand was ready to move, and her fingers squeezed into Song Yumeng's fingers. The hand that was originally just held was now tightly clasped.

"Don't be afraid, I'll hold you."

Her voice was incredibly gentle, as reassuring as the warm sunshine. Song Yumeng's fear was dispelled by her light, and her heart was surrounded by her warmth. She felt safe and secure, and no longer afraid.

After Tang Xiangping received the news that all the teachers were going to the conference room for a meeting, she called the discipline officer and said, "Don't talk. I'm going to the meeting and will be back soon."

But the classmates seemed to be very excited and could not be controlled at all. As soon as she left, the classroom became noisy again, and they were all discussing whether to leave school early.

In the darkness, the noise in their ears did not stop, but the two of them quietly clasped their fingers, palms pressed against palms, feeling each other's temperature, which was so hot that sweat broke out on the palms of both of their hands.

If the moonlight outside was brighter and the classroom was quieter, they would be able to see each other's blushing faces and raised corners of their mouths, and hear each other's deafening heartbeats.

About ten minutes later, Tang Xiangping came back from the meeting and announced, "There was a problem with the power circuit in the city, so there was a power outage. The power will not be back for a while, so the school has temporarily decided to let you go out early."

As soon as the voice fell, the classroom erupted in cheers, followed by cheers from the classrooms next door.

School was dismissed early, and one after another, people picked up their bags and ran out of the classroom excitedly.

After the classroom became a little quieter, Yi Ran used the moonlight outside the window to see Song Yumeng's face clearly, and said softly and tenderly, "Let's go home."

In the dark, Song Yumeng was so shy that she nodded obediently and said "hmm", very softly.

Yi Ran carried his schoolbag and took Song Yumeng out of the school. From the classroom to the outside of the school, the two of them never let go of their clasped hands, holding each other tightly, as if afraid that the other would let go.

"Let me take you home. The driver probably hasn't come to pick you up yet."

"Yes." Song Yumeng nodded with a red face.

When they got to the car, Yi Ran hooked the helmet strap with his free hand. When he wanted to put it on for her, he realized that his left hand was still clasped with hers, and it was not convenient to wear a helmet with one hand.

"I'll help you put on the helmet."

Song Yumeng understood what she meant and reluctantly let go of her hand, with her warmth and sweat still remaining on her palm. She was a little uncomfortable with not holding hands with Yi Ran all of a sudden, and she was worried about gains and losses.

After putting on the helmet and sitting in the passenger seat of the car, before Yi Ran could open his mouth to ask him to hold her tight, Song Yumeng took the lead and hugged her waist tightly. This time her face was not pressed against his back, but buried lightly in the back of Yi Ran's shoulder.

This action made her feel very safe, and she wanted to be closer to Yi Ran.

Yi Ran did not say anything, acquiescing to such an intimate and ambiguous behavior, and he liked the feeling of being dependent on her and sticking to him.

Both of them were filled with sweetness.

There was a problem with the main power circuit. Not only the school, but also the neighborhoods, shops, and street lights outside were turned off. The entire street intersection was dark, and only the bright moon in the sky was emitting a faint light.

Song Yumeng's hot breath kept hitting Yi Ran's neck, making her feel confused and restless. She was usually a very stable driver, but today she was shaking while driving.

The car was shaking, her hands were shaking, and her heart was shaking.

The two of them were silent and enjoyed each other along the way. They didn't dare to speak, for fear that speaking would break such a good atmosphere.

The electric car stopped at the door of the house. The two stood face to face, and they could see each other's faces clearly in the bright moonlight.

"Thank you." Song Yumeng smiled sweetly, and Yi Ran was reflected in her sparkling eyes.

"You're welcome." Yi Ran was reluctant to leave her in his heart, "Do you... have anything else to say?"

Song Yumeng lowered her eyelids, shook her head gently, and then raised her eyes and stared at her.

The atmosphere was so good and the moonlight was beautiful. She really couldn't bear to leave Yi Ran.

After staring at each other for several minutes, the lights on the roadside came on, and then every household lit up.

This time they really had to say goodbye.

Yi Ran smiled softly, "Is there anything else you want to say to me?"

"No, I have to go home."

Song Yumeng looked at her reluctantly for the last time, and then walked home with difficulty, but she looked back every few steps. It took her a minute to walk a few steps to the door, and she was even looking at Yi Ran just before closing the door.

Yi Ran stood there and watched her go home with a smile, and only left until she really closed the door.

After returning home, she received a message from Song Yumeng.

[And, good night. ]

After replying good night to her, Yi Ran turned off his phone and lay flat on the bed with relaxation. Somehow, her mind was unconsciously replaying what happened tonight with Song Yumeng.

She touched her heart with the hand that was clasped with Song Yumeng's fingers, and the lively heart inside was clamoring.

"I'm afraid I can't forget it."

She looked at the ceiling, pursed her lips and smiled, the entire galaxy universe was in her eyes, and her expression was too gentle.

No matter how stupid Yi Ran was, he understood that she was moved.

...

Strangely enough, since the power outage that day, the atmosphere between the two of them has changed significantly, it's so ambiguous that their eyes can be drawn.

Another strange thing is that one of them will wait for the other after school every day, and it has been going on for several days. This seems to have become a tacit secret between the two. After

school one night again, Yi Ran rode his bike to send Song Yumeng home as usual.

When they arrived at the door of the house, Yi Ran said, "How about this, I will take you home from now on, okay?"

Song Yumeng smiled sweetly: "I promise."

After the short conversation, both of them were reluctant to leave each other but were embarrassed to say it out loud, so they just stared at each other affectionately, their eyes were intoxicated and dazed.

They vaguely felt that the other party seemed to like them, but they lacked the courage to be sure.

Song Yumeng blushed and asked knowingly: "Why don't you leave? Are you reluctant to leave me?"

Yi Ran looked at the dark night sky and smiled and replied: "Nonsense, who can't bear to leave you?"

"Okay, then I'm leaving."

Song Yumeng knew that Yi Ran was probably embarrassed to admit it, so he denied it, but there was still a flash of loss in her heart, if only Yi Ran didn't let her go.

But Yi Ran didn't keep her, nor did he say anything. He watched her leave quietly, his eyes full of reluctance.

Song Yumeng slowly walked to the door and opened it. She looked back and found that Yi Ran had not left yet and was still looking at her. Suddenly, her face turned red and she was so shy that she went into the door and closed it.

The lover disappeared, Yi Ran suddenly felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost the most important thing.

She looked up at the starry night sky, and at the door of Song Yumeng's house, she curled her lips and said to herself: "Well, I can't bear to leave you."

After returning home, Song Yumeng almost jumped in front of Song's father.

Seeing his daughter so happy, Song's father put down the newspaper and asked with a smile: "What's wrong, Xiaoyu, what happened to make you so happy?"

"Nothing, it's just that Yi Shenjing sent me home tonight." When mentioning Yi Ran, Song Yumeng was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and her eyes were curved into a slit.

Father Song said with a smile, "Why did you give her such a nickname?"

"I think it's unique, I'm the only one who calls her that." Song Yumeng thought Yi Ran's name was nice, but everyone in the class called her that, so she wanted to give her a name that was different and only she could call.

Mother Song smiled and said, "You're bothering Xiao Yi to take you home again."

"Mom, she lives next door to us, how can it be called a trouble if it's just going the same way? And it was Shen Jing Yi who insisted on taking me home. She even said today that she would take me home every night in the future!" Song Yumeng said with a bit of boasting, "Dad, don't ask Uncle Wang to take me home in the future, I have Master Yi to take me home!" Father Song

doted on her especially, and the two children would have company and build a relationship every night when they went home together, so she naturally agreed.

...

Physical education class.

Yi Ran was still playing badminton with others on the playground, and Song Yumeng was still pulling Su Xiaoxiao to the rooftop to secretly keep an eye on her.

But Yi Ran stood on the court and looked around for a long time. She looked all over the playground but didn't see Song Yumeng. She felt disappointed and thought she didn't come.

But she had a hunch that Song Yumeng must be looking at her, so where would she be?

Inadvertently, her eyes swept across the rooftop and found the person she had been thinking about.

With just such a surprising glance, all the gloom in her heart disappeared, and was filled with sweet joy. Yi Ran grinned, and the racket in her hand swung even more vigorously.

She knew that she must be looking at her, and she must have been on the rooftop last time.

The guy who was playing basketball with her saw Yi Ran suddenly become excited and didn't understand what was wrong with her.

Just like Su Xiaoxiao on the rooftop, she didn't understand what was wrong with Song Yumeng. She kept grinning at the playground and kept her head down when asked what she was looking at.

Why did she feel that her good friend was thinking about love, and the object of her thoughts was...

"Xiaoyu, are you looking at classmate Yi Ran?" She had been observing for a long time, so she couldn't be wrong.

When Yi Ran's name was mentioned, Song Yumeng's heart trembled, and she lowered her head shyly. The smile that couldn't be hidden perfectly interpreted what a shy little girl was.

Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have guessed something, and asked hesitantly: "Well, Xiaoyu, do you like Yiran?"

"!!!"

Song Yumeng was visibly embarrassed and flustered after her secret was exposed, and looked at Su Xiaoxiao in surprise with her round eyes.

"Ah, ah?" Song Yumeng's voice was trembling with nervousness, "How do you know I like Yiran? Is it obvious?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded, "It's really obvious."

Song Yumeng's face turned redder, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to run away.

Her good friend has always been a simple-minded person who doesn't think too much. If even she can see that she likes Yiran, then everyone in the world knows it?

She wanted to tell the whole world that she likes Yiran, so that everyone in the world would know it, but she was afraid to tell others that she liked Yiran.

It's very contradictory.

Su Xiaoxiao stroked her chin and half looked up at the sky, thinking: "Student Yi Ran should like you too, right?"

"What, what?!" Song Yumeng was visibly excited, and hurriedly asked Su Xiaoxiao, "What did you just say? You said Yi Ran likes me too?!"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect her reaction to be so big, and choked: "Uh... This is also very obvious, right?"

"Then what should I do now? I really like Yi Ran!"

When she said that she liked Yi Ran, her eyes were full of light.

"Then go and confess."
