The atmosphere when they arrived home was still innocent and awkward. Ever since they kissed each other on the cheek, Wen Mo had never dared to look directly at her again, and could only occasionally glance at Xia Lian's current reaction out of the corner of his eye.
Xia Lian recovered her emotions quickly, spending about 23 out of 24 hours with a blank expression, and waiting for an opportunity to strike during the remaining hour.
"Wenmo, what's wrong?" she asked, turning her head blankly, the shyness from before gone from her eyes.
“…It’s nothing.” Wen Mo forced a smile, but in his heart he had already cursed a thousand times.
You were the one who initiated it! You were the one who initiated it! Why are you acting like nothing happened now, and I'm the one who's shy...?
Thinking of this, Wen Mo straightened up on the sofa and took out the photo from earlier to examine it carefully for a while.
The photos are truly perfect, and both of them are very photogenic. Perhaps they could consider working as photographers in the future, or if that doesn't work out, they could become models.
Xia Lian sat very close to him, right beside him, her right hand holding his other hand, her clear eyes revealing no emotion.
"Do you know what WeChat Moments is?" Wen Mo suddenly asked, smiling as he showed her the photos he had just taken. "I'm planning to post these photos on WeChat Moments in a bit."
"Moments?"
"Yes, Moments is a space where friends share their lives with each other." Wen Mo explained, opening Moments to show Xia Lian snippets of his friends' lives.
Xiang Xiaonan: I went out to play! I'm so happy, so happy, so happy!
Attached is a set of photos, mostly group photos of this girl with other friends. She is positioned in the very center, smiling sweetly and showing off her cute little tiger teeth.
Looking around, I saw that Qin Zhou had just posted a message on his WeChat Moments, and the comments section immediately became lively.
Qin Zhou: Doing homework in the middle of the night is such a hassle...
Comment: Lonely Bro still has homework to catch up on? (laughing and crying emoji)
Comment: Shouldn't you be overwhelmed with sadness in the middle of the night? (laughing and crying emoji)
Comment: Even doing homework can be this lonely, right? (laughing and crying emoji)
Yes, the comments section remains as abstract as ever.
Wen Mo's lips twitched slightly, but he still scrolled down to the next post on his WeChat Moments. Usually, because of his position at school, he had many friends, but they were all just exchanges between class committee members, and there was nothing else to it.
"Look, isn't it interesting? Look at their lives." He smiled and handed the phone to Xia Lian, urging her to take a closer look.
Xia Lian didn't speak, but took the phone and carefully looked at the screen, scrolling down line by line for several minutes without any change in her expression.
“Warm, friends, so many.”
I just scrolled through the list and found that there are many male friends and quite a few female friends as well.
"Most of them are acquaintances from school, and we don't usually talk much." Wen Mo glanced at his WeChat Moments and realized that he had indeed gained quite a few more friends.
Yin Tao: Went out to play with the idiot! @Ye Qingzhou
Below is a picture of a brightly lit street scene. The two people are even wearing school uniforms. It is estimated that they did not go home after school one time, but went out of the school gate hand in hand to play.
Ye Qingzhou: The idiot refers to the one above.
Wenmo was amused by the photo; the two of them were practically kissing, yet they weren't even together.
"Get together already, you bastard."
“But Yin Tao has someone she likes,” Xia Lian suddenly said seriously.
"Is it possible that she was referring to the person next to her?" Wen Mo muttered to himself.
The two of them reached out and scrolled through their WeChat Moments on the small screen.
Xia Lian had never posted anything like this before. She didn't even know that WeChat had this function. It was only last time that Yin Tao asked her to help like posts on her Moments, saying that she needed to collect likes to be released after being caught by the traffic police.
“Friends, so many.” She repeated, her eyes lowering slightly.
"My phone password is your birthday. I changed it a long time ago. You can take it and look at it anytime you want." Wen Mo said sincerely, showing how serious he was about their relationship.
“No need for that… I believe you, Winmer.”
Xia Lian shook her head and gave a faint smile.
She knew that Wenmo was very good-looking, and given his kind personality, it was normal for him to have many friends. As long as Wenmo was by her side, she didn't need anything else.
"Look at you, you're smiling so beautifully right now."
Wen Mo moved closer and pulled the girl into his arms.
He knew that this girl lacked a sense of security, especially after losing her mother. The feeling of being surrounded by emptiness was really suffocating. But now it's different. Xia Lian has a warm family, a cousin... and she even has a boyfriend.
As a good man and a good boyfriend, you need to provide him with a strong sense of security.
"Do you want to try posting it on WeChat Moments?" Wen Mo lowered his head and pressed his face against Xia Lian's; it felt very comfortable to be close to the girl's soft body.
"Post it on WeChat Moments?" Xia Lian raised her eyes and stared straight at her.
Seeing that she was very interested, Wen Mo didn't waste any words. Instead, he took her phone, looked through WeChat, and opened the editing interface. "This is it. You can also try posting a message on your Moments."
At this point, Wen Mo sent over the photos he had taken after school. After receiving them, he put the photos below, and Xia Lian had to come up with the text for them herself.
"Write down whatever you want to say, anything you want to write."
Wen Mo carefully placed the phone back in Xia Lian's hand and patiently taught her step by step how to post it on WeChat Moments. However, this post would probably have to be hidden from everyone because the photo of them kissing on the cheek was too provocative. If it were just a simple hug, perhaps others could see it too.
Fortunately, besides herself, this girl's only close friends are her childhood sweethearts. She'll keep her relationship a secret for now and block them out for the time being.
"What I want to say?" Xia Lian held her phone, staring blankly at the photo for a moment, before finally raising her eyes to look at it again.
"Yes, you can write anything."
Wen Mo smiled and hugged her tighter, pulling her into his arms.
Xia Lian blinked, staring silently at the photo of the kiss on the cheek. After a long while, her fingers finally moved, typing a few words.
"It's finished."
"Then let's just send it out." Wen Mo loosened his embrace and patted her head with a grin.
This post on WeChat Moments is only visible to Wenmo; no one else can see it.
Without hesitation, Wen Mo opened his Moments, and the first thing he saw was the post that the little girl had just made.
The two in the photo are very intimate. The girl's face is flushed with a shy kiss, and the boy seems a little surprised, looking at her beside him. The setting sun behind them witnesses everything, and the bright sunlight shines on them.
Moving your gaze upwards, a simple sentence appears on the photograph:
I have someone who loves me again.
Wen Mo stared at the sentence for a long time, then turned his gaze to Xia Lian.
The girl held her phone in front of her face, slightly raised her head, revealing only her clear eyes that were cautiously looking over.
