When Lin Jianxue heard Fu Zhawei's question, her heart sank suddenly.
For a moment, she really wanted to play dumb and pretend that she didn't understand what he was saying.
She is afraid.
Afraid of Fu Zhewei's rejection.
Given her personality, if Fu Zhewei really rejected her, she might never have the face to appear in front of him again.
In her past lives, she had been brave for him so many times, and if all she got in return was hope...
However, she didn't want to drag it on any longer in vain.
I don't want to act like a fool who doesn't understand what he is saying in front of him.
Lin Jianxue took a deep breath, and her fingertips turned a little white due to the force.
She raised her head and met Fu Zhawei's deep gaze. His clear almond eyes were now filled with the courage to risk everything.
"Yes, Fu Zhewei."
Her voice, with a barely perceptible tremor, was unusually clear.
"I'm telling the truth."
"I like you."
"I've liked you for a long time."
"The reason I applied to go to the countryside was to go to Heilongjiang Province to find you."
"Now that you're here, Uncle Fu and Aunt Dong have rebelled, so I... I don't plan to go to Heilongjiang Province anymore."
She paused, then said clearly, word by word: "Do you understand what I mean now?"
Fu Zhewei stood in front of her, his tall figure almost completely covering her.
For a moment, Lin Jianxue even felt that the air around him had solidified, and his breathing seemed to have stopped for a moment.
The cold winter wind blew up the dead leaves on the ground, making a rustling sound, which made the moment of silence seem even longer and more exhausting.
After a while, Fu Zhewei seemed to come back to his senses from her straightforward and almost brave words.
He hummed softly, his voice so low and hoarse that it didn't seem like his own.
"Have I ever… told you before," he paused, his dark eyes fixed on her, as if to suck her in, "that there's a girl I've loved for a long time?"
Lin Jianxue's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it suddenly contracted, causing her to feel so much pain that she could hardly breathe.
Here it comes.
He still had to say the name.
She clenched her fists, her nails almost digging into her palms, and tried to keep her voice steady: "I know."
"Didn't you say that if you could make it to Kyoto, you would go and confess your love to her?"
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, with a bloody taste.
Fu Zhewei's eyes were calm, without any ripples in his expression: "Yes."
He opened his thin lips slightly, and the words that came out were like an ice-hardened knife, piercing Lin Jianxue's heart.
"So I plan to... confess my feelings to her right now."
Lin Jianxue felt as if her heart was pierced by an ice cone. The sharp pain spread rapidly, and she was so cold that every part of her body began to stiffen.
The circles under my eyes turned red almost instantly.
This bastard!
He actually wanted to confess his love to his white moonlight!
So why did he call her out?
Is it just to reject her in person and make her give up completely?
Or was it to let her know how deeply he loved the so-called white moonlight?
Let her see clearly how ridiculous her wishful thinking is!
How could he be so cruel!
Lin Jianxue sniffed sharply, forcing down the surging sourness.
She pretended to be nonchalant and turned around, her back to him, her voice choked with a sob that she herself didn't even notice: "Oh."
"Never mind."
"Go confess to her."
"I'm going home."
She kept her voice as quiet as possible.
"I know what you mean."
Just as Lin Jianxue was about to step forward, Fu Zhawei's low and clear voice came from behind her.
"Lin Jianxue."
Lin Jianxue paused, but did not turn her head.
She was afraid that if she lowered her head, tears would fall uncontrollably.
Then, she heard Fu Zhawei speak word by word in a solemn and hoarse voice that she had never heard before.
"I like you."
Lin Jianxue froze, thinking she was hallucinating.
Immediately afterwards, Fu Zhewei's voice sounded again, like a thunderclap, exploding in her mind.
"My white moonlight is you."
"Lin Jianxue, I have liked you for many, many years."
"I originally planned to confess my feelings to you when I graduated from high school."
