Lin An had expected Fang Qingying to reject Gong Sirou's confession.
But he was surprised that Fang Qingying refused so quickly.
"May I ask the reason for the rejection?" Lin An thought about it and decided to find out the reason.
"Do you want to hear a simpler or more complicated reason?"
"Simple."
"To put it simply..." Fang Qingying stared into his eyes: "Compared to liking Gong Sirou, I like someone else more."
Fang Qingying has a neat face, delicate features, long black hair and a pure and beautiful appearance. She is very beautiful and is indeed the top version of Ren Yingying.
If it were in high school, he would immediately regard Fang Qingying as his lifelong goddess.
But it was too late to meet Fang Qingying.
Lin An looked apologetic. "I'm not interested in a relationship right now. Don't try to find a suitable partner. Senior Gong Sirou is a very nice girl."
"Hey, hey, hey!" Fang Qingying said in a very dissatisfied voice: "Don't make me sound like a male licker who confesses his love to a goddess. The person I like is not you."
Lin An didn't feel embarrassed: "It's Lu Muyuan, I know, I was just joking."
"Yes, I was joking too." Fang Qingying turned her head and stared into his eyes again. The feeling of love in his eyes was not false at all.
Lin An was still a little panicked. He was sure that Fang Qingying had feelings for him that were more than just friendship.
"I was just kidding!" Fang Qingying chuckled, her delicate face a little cold and beautiful: "It is indeed Lu Muyuan. I know Sirou likes me, but do you know?"
"Ever since I started playing the role of the older sister, many boys and girls have liked me, including both handsome men and beautiful women. But I always reject them by saying, 'I can't like anyone else.' You know why. I think these boys and girls like me because of the older sister image I'm playing. That's not the real me. I can't develop feelings for boys and girls who like my fake mask."
"Senior Gong Sirou knows your true nature and likes you just the same." Lin An's voice was sincere.
"So what? Gong Sirou is just one of the many butterflies who like me because of my perfect image. I don't think she's anything special."
Lin An understood now: "Senior Sirou is the prettier of the many butterflies that like you. That's why you like her. But after you meet a special butterfly, your feelings of liking her will quickly fade, and you'll only care about that special butterfly."
"Yes, Xiaoyuan is a special butterfly to me." Fang Qingying thought of something beautiful, a sweet smile on her face: "When I first met Xiaoyuan, she told me that she 'couldn't understand the feeling of love.' I knew that no matter if I was pretending to be the perfect student council president or hiding my true self, Xiaoyuan would never fall in love with me. I knew immediately that she was the most special person in my heart."
"Later, I realized that Xiaoyuan couldn't refuse other people's requests. She was a kind little angel. She is destined to be a special girl that I can't ignore in this life."
Lin An noticed a certain detail: "Why do I know that Lu Muyuan is a kind little angel? She is destined to be special."
"It seems like I can't hide anything from you." Fang Qingying looked at Lin An with complicated eyes: "But it doesn't matter if I reveal the secret of my identity contradiction to you and reveal other deep-buried secrets to you."
Fang Qingying dragged Lin An outside, the two of them feeling the biting cold wind. Fang Qingying's voice deepened, "My father is a senior executive at a foreign company. His annual salary, combined with the family's financial management, brings him to 30 million. My mother is a housewife. She gave me a mostly Western, free-range upbringing. She rarely disciplined me. We had a harmonious and beautiful family, but ever since my sister died, that free-range upbringing left a void in me, which is why I was born."
"Throughout my three years of junior high, I struggled to maintain my identity as a perfect student. It wasn't until my second year of high school that I met a classmate named Jiao Yue."
Fang Qingying paused for a moment before continuing, "She's a simple, kindhearted girl who rarely refuses help. She does all the dirty work in school, like cleaning and moving books. She never complains and is always happy to help others. She always wears a high ponytail, and when she smiles, only her left cheek has a dimple. She's an ordinary-looking girl, but she's very pleasant to look at. I don't particularly like her pushy personality, but I'm not one to discipline others. Until one day, I found a small koala trinket she'd dropped. I learned she also liked trinket items, and we gradually became friends."
There was a hint of sadness in Fang Qingying's eyes. Lin An knew that the story was about to take a turn, so he put his arm around her shoulders and encouraged her.
Fang Qingying moved a little closer to Lin An, their shoulders touching, and continued, "We went to the small commodity city together to buy koala ornaments, and went to eat smoothies on the street corner together. That period was a happy time for me to let go of my disguise, but I soon realized that something was wrong. Jiao Yue's originally quiet hairstyle with bangs was dyed into unruly reddish-brown curls, and her ears that didn't wear earrings were pierced with many studs, and she wore heavy makeup every day. I asked around and found out that she had a boyfriend outside of school. That boyfriend was a mechanic at a nearby auto repair shop and he was quite playful. I asked around again and found out that the mechanic was a scumbag who specialized in deceiving girls of their feelings and money. He used the name of love to get his girlfriend to give him money. If his girlfriend didn't have money, he would make her work as a prostitute."
Lin An's heart tightened. He guessed Jiao Yue's ending, and also guessed why Fang Qingying mentioned Jiao Yue when explaining why Lu Muyuan was special.
