Ye Nuan blushed and lowered her head: "I know you like Sister Nanxing, it's okay, I'll wait for you to forget her."
Immediately, Duan Ye's eyes widened in astonishment: "Classmate, you don't have to force yourself like this."
Unexpectedly, Ye Nuan stepped forward and took his hand: "It's not forced."
What?
"It was voluntary."
Under the streetlights, the eighteen-year-old girl's fair face was as red as if she had applied blush.
She held his hand, her fingers trembling slightly, and said, "Senior, I've liked you for a long time."
How long?
At this moment, Duan Ye was curious, but he didn't dare to ask.
Of course, Ye Nuan did not reveal the past she had kept hidden in her heart, because during the summer vacation before their senior year of high school, they only met briefly, and Duan Ye did not even remember what she looked like.
"Senior, shall we give it a try?"
Perhaps it was the effects of the alcohol tonight, or perhaps Ye Nuan was too beautiful at the moment, or perhaps he was just being stubborn—Duan Ye didn't know why he was doing it, but he agreed: "Okay."
It was at this moment that he decided to remove Nanxing from his life.
Take good care of yourself, learn to love others, and enjoy being loved.
So, on this cold and bleak night, he reached out and held the hand of someone other than Nanxing for the first time.
It was their first time in love, and their palms were hot and sweaty as they clasped hands, but neither of them let go first.
until...
Duan Ye leisurely escorted her to the dormitory building before Ye Nuan reluctantly withdrew her hand.
"Let's go back, it's late."
Just as Duan Ye finished speaking and was about to leave, Ye Nuan called out to him, "Senior, will you come to see me again tomorrow?"
Duan Ye thought for a moment and said, "Let's have lunch together tomorrow at noon."
Ye Nuan's eyes lit up instantly, and her mood became cheerful: "Then...see you at the cafeteria at noon."
Duan Ye responded, and Ye Nuan turned and left with a flushed face, but she kept looking back every few steps.
Only after Duan Ye's figure completely disappeared into the long night did she press down on her pounding heart.
turn out to be...
She really liked Duan Ye, so much so that... her heart rate was out of control.
On Ye Nuan's electronic watch, the heart rate display was already red, with her heart rate jumping wildly at 120 or 130, indicating her current mood.
Ye Nuan was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. The next morning, she decided not to sleep at all and got up early to buy breakfast and wait downstairs at the boys' dormitory.
Duan Ye had an 8 a.m. class this morning, so even though he stayed up very late last night, he went back to bed as soon as he got home because he had to go to class the next day.
As soon as he came out, he saw Ye Nuan under the tree, carrying breakfast and looking nervous.
He stood there for a while, thinking, before walking towards Ye Nuan.
Ye Nuan spotted him immediately, and when she saw him finally walking towards her, she became even more nervous, not knowing what to do with her hands and feet.
It wasn't until Duan Ye walked up to her that she awkwardly handed him the breakfast in her hand: "Senior, this is... the breakfast I bought for you."
Duan Ye glanced at it and saw seven or eight steamed buns, several pancakes, and soy milk porridge—a whole big bag full.
"You... I can't finish all of this."
Ye Nuan stammered, "Um, I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I bought a little bit of everything. If you can't finish it, you can... share it with your classmates."
Duan Ye smiled and accepted it, saying, "Okay, thank you, Ye Nuan."
This was the first time she had heard her name from his mouth.
Ye Nuan's eyes sparkled; her senior had remembered her name!
Just as Duan Ye was about to speak, Ye Nuan ran away in embarrassment, leaving Duan Ye somewhat bewildered.
She could only grab her breakfast and rush off to class, but Ye Nuan came running back.
"Senior, we haven't exchanged contact information yet!"
Duan Ye then realized, "Oh right, I was in such a rush last night that I really didn't have time."
They quickly added each other on WeChat.
"Senior, I don't have class this morning. I'll get you lunch. I'll be waiting for you at the cafeteria!"
After saying that, Ye Nuan ran off again.
Duan Ye looked at her small figure from behind and smiled inexplicably, suddenly feeling that... she was kind of cute.
Duan Ye rushed as fast as he could and finally made it to 8 a.m., where he also ate a hot breakfast. Of course, he couldn't finish it all, so Lin Feng and Liu Jie got to enjoy it.
After the first class, Duan Ye received a message from Ye Nuan, a cute emoji asking him, "Are you full?"
Duan Ye replied: I'm full, thank you.
The other end replied quickly: Senior, can you not be so polite? I'm your girlfriend.
Duan Ye wasn't quite used to this new identity yet, but he still replied: Okay.
Immediately following was a barrage of messages from Ye Nuan, sharing what she ate and did that morning, and how much she wanted him to finish class quickly so they could go to the cafeteria together.
As Duan Ye looked at the long list of words, it was as if he saw his younger self.
turn out to be...
When someone's feelings for another person are so obvious, the other person isn't unaware, they just... pretend not to know.
The morning classes passed quickly. Lin Feng and Liu Jie couldn't sit still any longer and left, but Duan Ye, remembering their promise, didn't run after them.
After class, Duan Ye took his phone and headed towards the cafeteria.
Remembering what Ye Nuan had said, he bought two more cups of milk tea at the milk tea shop before heading towards the cafeteria.
As soon as he entered the cafeteria, he saw Ye Nuan waving at him from a prominent position in the center.
