Luo Xikui's legs trembled slightly as she looked up at him.
"Are you scared?" Xu Ziyu asked in a low voice.
She nodded, her voice trembling in the wind: "I'm scared."
Xu Ziyu smiled faintly, patted her head, and suddenly pulled her into his arms.
She was stunned. Was she going to jump? Why did she suddenly have the feeling that she was going to commit suicide for love?!
"After you finish dancing, there's something I need to tell you," Xu Ziyu whispered in her ear.
Luo Xikui's heart was pounding, whether from fear or shyness. What was he going to say to her? Could it be a confession?
In this situation, that's what people usually say, right?
She thought for a moment, then, feeling a surge of excitement, said impatiently, "Let's jump now!"
After saying that, she moved closer to the edge of the diving platform, hugged his waist tightly with both hands, and looked up at the boy who had captured her heart. In the glow of the setting sun, the boy's features were etched in her heart.
As he counted down in her ear, she closed her eyes and pressed her face against his chest.
When he counted to one, her body leaned forward with his, and then her mind went blank. It felt like all the blood in her body rushed to her head, and her heart plummeted.
Even after she finished jumping and stood on the ground, her head was still spinning, and her feet felt as unsteady as if she were walking on clouds.
Xu Ziyu helped her to a bench and sat down, smiling gently, "You were so scared, yet you still jumped."
"I just want to try it with you." No matter what the first time was, she wanted to try it with him.
"I'll go buy a bottle of water." Seeing that her expression hadn't calmed down, he got up and went to the convenience store not far away.
Luo Xikui grabbed his wrist. She didn't want to drink any water right now. She wanted to know what he had said to her before he jumped.
"Tell me quickly, what is it?" she asked, looking at him expectantly.
Xu Ziyu hesitated for a moment when he met her gaze.
Just as I was about to speak, a large cartoon doll came over and struck some playful poses.
Xu Ziyu took out some money and bought a balloon, hoping to make the doll leave quickly.
He didn't notice that the balloon he was holding was a pink heart shape, and casually handed it to Luo Xikui.
When Luo Xikui saw the balloon, it confirmed her original idea. Her face flushed, and her heart pounded.
She shyly accepted the balloon, but didn't urge him to speak. She quietly lowered her head, creating a pleasant atmosphere.
But to everyone's surprise, the first thing he said in his deep voice was, "I'm going to Germany next month to apply for university."
Luo Xikui was stunned, thinking that her hearing was impaired after the bungee jumping, and that's why she misheard.
She looked up at him, staring straight at him, and it took her a while to find her voice: "What did you say?"
“Next month is for applying for admission. The winter semester there doesn’t start until early October.” Xu Ziyu looked at her and pursed her lips. “Their admission notice has already been sent over.”
The blush on Luo Xikui's face vanished instantly, and she said anxiously, "Why? Why haven't you mentioned it before? There's no need to study abroad in high school, is there? If you want to go abroad, we can do it in college..."
“I’m going to university,” Xu Ziyu interrupted her, his eyes clear.
Luo Xikui's eyelashes trembled, and she pursed her lips. The balloon drifted away through her slightly loosened fingers.
When the hydrogen balloon rose to a certain height and was illuminated by the intense sunset, it burst with a bang, just like her heart.
