Ji Luoqing has been secretly following Yan Shiying for a long time.
In the beginning, he only met her once at the opening ceremony. At that time, he just felt a strange throbbing when he was talking to Yan Shiying, but Ji Luoqing didn't delve into what that feeling was.
Later, when I met her again, I met her by chance in the college. She was walking and laughing with the girl beside her. After seeing him, she even took the initiative to say hello to him.
"Hello, Senior Ji."
It was just four short words, but it was strange, he had a sense of flattered joy.
She tugged at the girl next to her, and called out "Yaoyao" in a low voice, but the girl who was slightly shorter than her didn't even dare to look at him, she just lowered her head and said "Hello senior" in a low voice.
Yan Shiying raised her head and smiled at him embarrassedly.
Ji Luoqing passed by the mirror in the corridor, only to belatedly realize that her ears were actually red.
They stood in the management office and waited for the teacher in the management office. Ji Luoqing found that she couldn't help but cast her eyes on Yan Shiying.
The voices of their conversation were very soft, and there were occasional laughter at the same time, but he only focused on distinguishing which one was her voice.
On the way, another girl left for a while, and there were only him and Yan Shiying left at the door.
She was standing less than ten meters away from her, waiting quietly and silently with him. Ji Luoqing stood up straight and became tense unconsciously.
He quietly looked at her from the corner of his eye. She was lazily leaning against the wall, with a keychain in her hand, and she was turning it flexibly with her index finger.
Her fingers are so thin, they seem to be easy to pinch...
Ji Luoqing's mind came up with thoughts that he had never had before, and then he heard the sound of a "boom" and the object fell to the ground.
The body reacted one step earlier than the brain. Ji Luoqing bent down to pick it up, and just as he touched the key ring, a hand that he had seen just now appeared in his vision, softly touching the back of his hand.
At that moment, an inexplicable feeling robbed his brain of thinking ability, Ji Luoqing felt that strong palpitations reappeared, his heart beat faster, he raised his head, and met her eyes.
Her slender eyelashes, casual eyebrows, and slightly curved lips hit his sight at this distance, and her bright pupils reflected his bewildered and clumsy appearance wearing glasses.
Ji Luoqing withdrew her hand as if at a loss as if she had been scalded.
He never believed in love at first sight, and he couldn't tell what it felt like, but at that moment just now, it was as if he couldn't see anyone else in his eyes except her.
Later, he couldn't help but look forward to every chance encounter in the academy, or an inadvertent meeting and greeting, even if it was a short communication passing by, he couldn't help being happy about it.
The feelings that have been blank for more than 20 years are like a blank sheet of paper, because she has been dyed with different colorful colors.
The junior girl named Qin Shuyao next to her began to come to him often, and he couldn't help asking her about everything from her side. Even if Qin Shuyao only talked about her trivial daily life, he was still very interested. Even after eating an extra sandwich, I feel relish.
The number of times gradually increased, and Ji Luoqing began to hesitate whether to tell Qin Shuyao what she liked from the bottom of her heart, and to listen to her good friend's opinion.
He knew that this desire to know her would one day make him no longer satisfied, just secretly looking at her, how long can he persist in facing someone who doesn't know what he wants, who won't respond to him at all? She is so popular in the academy, if he just watched her interact with others, would he be able to bear it
But the person who broke the relationship before him was Qin Shuyao.
She seemed to have gradually realized from the meeting with him that he was more willing to listen to her talk about Yan Shiying than to herself. She finally couldn't help asking Ji Luoqing: "Senior, you don't... like Yingying, do you?"
This question seemed to reveal the secret he had been carefully hiding all along, Ji Luoqing was a little afraid to look Qin Shuyao in the eye.
Ji Luoqing was silent for a moment, and an extremely clear answer floated in his heart.
"Yes, I like her."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt relieved. It seemed that the bottle that had been stuck in the bottleneck was suddenly pulled out, and the emotions that were squeezed at the bottom of the bottle were instantly emptied.
Qin Shuyao's eyes dimmed after hearing his answer.
Ji Luoqing didn't know why she looked particularly depressed, and then heard Qin Shuyao ask: "Then senior, do you still remember that you saved me under the hands of several seniors before?"
There was an expectation in her eyes that Ji Luoqing couldn't understand, but he shook his head blankly.
It wasn't until Qin Shuyao ran away with a dejected look on his face that Ji Luoqing realized that... She couldn't be, like him, right
Later, he saw Yan Shiying at the rehearsal of the school celebration ceremony. He thought he would have to wait patiently for a while, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.
Because of the rehearsal, she wore a white dress, which was so beautiful and dazzling that it attracted the attention of most people in the auditorium. The more dazzling he is, the more Ji Luoqing feels at a loss.
Under her clear eyes, Ji Luoqing was troubled by her clumsiness like never before.
He was like a clumsy bear in front of her, and it took a lot of courage just to stand in front of her. If he was stared at by her for more than three seconds, his face would turn red in spite of himself.
When he saw her laughing, Ji Luoqing once again experienced the feeling that the whole world was shaking. In his sight, Yan Shiying like that was almost shining.
Ji Luoqing was once again very sure - he liked her.
Gradually, there were not many people left in the auditorium of the school celebration rehearsal.
Seeing Yan Shiying who was about to turn around after bidding farewell to him, Ji Luoqing suddenly realized that if he didn't seize this opportunity at this time, he would never know when the next opportunity would appear.
He finally plucked up the courage: "Yan Xuemei! Wait a minute!"
Yan Shiying turned her head when she heard the words, turned her head to look at him, and waited patiently for him to speak.
Ji Luoqing tightly clenched the hand beside her.
He took a deep breath, "Yan Xuemei, I have something to tell you."
His voice was too soft, Yan Shiying could only walk back to him and listen carefully.
Seeing her approaching, Ji Luoqing's whole body became stiffer, and with his red ears, he looked like a rabbit whose neck was picked up by a hunter.
Seeing his appearance, Yan Shiying couldn't help chuckling, "What exactly is the senior trying to say?"
"Yan Xuemei, I like you!"
"Do you want Yaoyao's number?"
The two spoke almost in unison, and when they heard what the other had just said, they both looked at each other in disbelief.
Yan Shiying blinked in confusion, "Didn't you come to me to ask for Yaoyao's phone number?"
Ji Luoqing was more confused than she was, "Why do I need her phone number?"
"I know all about it. Recently, senior doesn't often get close to Yaoyao. I thought you liked Yaoyao, senior."
Seeing Yan Shiying saying this with a smile, Ji Luoqing quickly denied it, "No! I just want to know more about you from her..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ji Luoqing's face turned red little by little. He carefully raised his head to look at Yan Shiying, and stammered: "I, the person I like... has always been you."
Speak out!
Ji Luoqing only felt that her heart was beating violently like never before.
He waited for an invisible sentence in Yan Shiying's silence. Maybe he should wait for a more suitable time and scene to say this sentence, but he felt that if he didn't say it now, he would regret it later.
If only he had the excellent eloquence of his classmates, but he can only say "I like you" to her clumsily.
Ji Luoqing felt that the tip of his nose and forehead were sweating slightly, and his hands were trembling slightly due to excessive tension, "If, if you..." He tried his best to say something to save his poor performance just now, but he was only halfway through, Ji Luoqing Luo Qing heard Yan Shiying's soft laughter.
Ji Luoqing took a few glances at her and quickly lowered his eyes to avoid showing more embarrassment in front of her.
Then he heard Yan Shiying say: "So I was thinking too much."
She stood in front of him, grabbed the hand beside him, and said softly, "Shall we go out and talk?"
Ji Luoqing was completely dumbfounded when she took the initiative to hold her hand, and couldn't say anything other than nodding.
With a blank mind, he followed Yan Shiying out of the auditorium and walked to a lush garden path. Ji Luoqing was still secretly happy for her to grab his hand, when Yan Shiying turned around and kissed the corner of her lips.
Ji Luoqing felt dizzy, her heart seemed to be beating so fast that it was about to explode because she couldn't bear the excessive happiness.
After Yan Shiying kissed him briefly, she clasped his palm with her fingers and smiled lightly.
"I thought you liked Yaoyao."
So she means...
Ji Luoqing felt a kind of buoyant joy that was about to fly away, his cheeks turned red when he was excited by the idea that popped into his mind.
Isn't he dreaming? His head was buzzing, and he began to wonder if she didn't reject him just to appease him...
However, seeing her smiling eyes, Ji Luoqing's eyes glowed with brilliance in an instant as she gently held her own strength on the back of her hand.
He mustered up his courage, as if he wanted to convey his heart to her heart: "I have always liked you, from beginning to end."
The undisguised and undisguised passionate love went straight to Yan Shiying, and Yan Shiying couldn't help laughing.
Everything that happened afterwards made Ji Luoqing feel like he was dreaming.
He sat side by side with Yan Shiying on the bench. She kept asking him when did he notice her and when did he fall in love with her? She asked so much that her face was so hot that she was about to burn, and then she boasted how cute and tender she kissed her...
Her kiss fell on his face like soft cotton, and the place he touched made him tremble like fireworks exploding in his brain... Ji Luoqing felt like she was kneading a ball of dough at will, but She smiled so beautifully, and she stared at him with sparkling eyes. Under her smile, he felt his head was numb. He gave up resisting and let her do whatever she wanted to him.
Afterwards they strolled in the garden for a long time, and he gradually recovered from the excitement of his heart beating wildly, the only thing that remained unchanged was his hands that had never been separated.
Clenching the palm of his hand, Ji Luoqing finally understood the feeling of getting what he wanted.
From then on, he never let go of her again.
