"What did you say? Your voice was too soft, I couldn't hear it clearly." Xia Tian asked.
When Qiu Mengyun said that just now, her mind was confused. When she heard Xia Tian's question, she suddenly came to her senses and didn't dare to say it again.
He quickly shook his head and said, "Nothing, I just said that I forgive you, you don't have to apologize."
"Did you just say you forgive me? Why did you say that sentence quite long?" Xia Tian asked doubtfully.
"Oh! Are you annoying? I have forgiven you, what else do you want? Are you going to be happy only if I ignore you?" Qiu Mengyun quickly frowned to prevent Xia Tian from continuing to ask what she had just said.
I don't know if they forgot or they were used to it, but neither of them took the initiative to let go of the other's hand. They just walked around the campus hand in hand, like a real couple.
"Xia Tian, thank you!"
After walking for a while, Qiu Mengyun suddenly spoke.
Xia Tian asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Why are you so polite all of a sudden? I didn't do anything. I just took a walk with you. Is it necessary for you to thank me specifically?"
Qiu Mengyun shook her head. "No, I'm not thanking you for walking with me. I'm thanking you for the song you just gave me on stage. 'You Are My Life' is the song you wrote recently. I love it."
After understanding Qiu Mengyun's reason for thanking him, Xia Tian smiled and said, "It's actually nothing. Didn't you just sing 'Courage' for me on stage? I know you did it to better expose our relationship and make more people believe that we are a real couple. But no matter what, your performance on stage today made me very proud. As a reward, giving you a song can be considered a return of favor!"
"Huh! Who told you that my performance on stage today was just to convince others of our relationship? Couldn't I have other ideas? Like, to make you believe it too?" Hearing Xia Tian referring to the song "You Are My Life," which had deeply moved her, as a token of gratitude, Qiu Mengyun's smile immediately vanished, and she pouted and complained.
With his previous experience, Xia Tian was smarter this time. He knew that he couldn't reason with girls, otherwise, even if he was right, it would be useless in the end. He followed Qiu Mengyun's words very tactfully and said, "Yeah, right, right! I'm too inconsiderate. You're really amazing."
From his tone, Qiu Mengyun knew he was just trying to brush her off. However, she didn't bother to dwell on the issue any further and instead continued asking about the song: "So when did you write this song? Did you only find inspiration to write it after I agreed to come to the graduation ceremony?"
Xia Tian rolled his eyes and finally came up with a more reliable explanation: "Yeah! Actually, this song was written not long ago. It was the day I treated you to dinner and we went to the park for a BBQ. After we came back from dinner, I suddenly got an inspiration and wrote this song."
Xia Tian thought this was the easiest and most plausible explanation. After all, he'd said it was a song dedicated to Qiu Mengyun. He couldn't be honest and say he'd written it out of desperation after being tricked by his instructor and suddenly finding out he was being drafted and had to perform on stage.
But his words sounded completely different to Qiu Mengyun.
It turns out that she wrote this song for me after we had dinner together. It seems that he was very happy to have dinner with me that day and had a very good impression of me, otherwise he would not have written a song specifically for me after returning home.
Could it be that after witnessing my approachable side in real life, he was completely captivated by me? Or perhaps he'd already been attracted to me, but because I was a celebrity and the gap in our status was so great, he felt the pressure to keep it hidden. After that night, he realized I wasn't the kind of person who would resort to material things, and finally mustered the courage to subtly express his feelings?
But I'm not ready for love and marriage yet. Should I tell him directly? If he finds out, will he be heartbroken? He's just getting over the loss of his love. If I tell him such cruel news now, will he be completely devastated?
Because she was constantly thinking about her relationship with Xia Tian, Qiu Mengyun completely forgot to look at the road. She just kept holding Xia Tian's hand and walked forward with her head down. She didn't even notice a tree appeared in front of her, and she ran straight into it.
Fortunately, Xia Tian, who was following her, noticed her situation out of the corner of his eye. He quickly pulled her up, thus preventing her from hitting her head against a tree.
"Ah! What are you doing? Why are you pulling me suddenly?" Qiu Mengyun asked in surprise when Xia Tian pulled her in front of him.
Although her tone was normal, Qiu Mengyun was already panicking at this moment.
Ahhh! What is he going to do? Is this the same scene they often see in TV dramas? Is he going to hold me in his arms and kiss me next?
This… this! How can this be? What should I do? Should I reject him? But how can I reject him so that he won't be embarrassed or hurt?
Looking at Qiu Mengyun, who was looking bewildered, Xia Tian raised his head and tapped her on the head. Then he said sternly, "How dare you ask me what I'm doing? If I hadn't stopped you in time, you would have crashed into the tree, you know?"
"I really don't know. When you were walking, you didn't pay attention to the road. What were you thinking about?"
At the end of his speech, Xia Tian's tone turned helpless again.
After hearing Xia Tian's explanation, Qiu Mengyun's face turned red again. This time it wasn't because she was shy, but simply because she felt too embarrassed to bear it.
What was she thinking just now? Xia Tian didn't say anything, but she had imagined so many things. The most shameful thing was that she actually thought Xia Tian pulled her over because he wanted to kiss her. Oh my! How could she think such things? This girl is obviously a very pure baby!
Seeing Qiu Mengyun blushing and lowering her head without saying a word after being scolded by him, Xia Tian thought that his tone was too harsh and frightened her.
He immediately comforted her, "Okay, I was just saying that casually. I didn't really mean to blame you. I just wanted to remind you to be more careful when walking next time, otherwise it would be bad if something unexpected happened."
Hearing the concern in Xia Tian's tone, Qiu Mengyun smiled and asked, "Can I understand from what you just said that you are worried about me?"
Xia Tian chuckled: "Whatever you want, as long as you are happy."
