Xiao Youran naturally also saw the school he chose.
Unlike Yang Xiaoxiao's reaction, her first reaction was confusion.
Jinling Jiaotong University
Chapter 11 You Don't Know How to Cherish
Xiao Youran applied to Jinling Jiaotong University, so why did Xu Xiuwen also apply to Jiaotong University
With the score that Xu Xiuwen had, there was no way he would be admitted to Jiaotong University.
Did he never intend to be admitted
Did he do this on purpose so that he could repeat the grade naturally
Xiao Youran knew that Xu Xiuwen was a boy who cared a lot about his reputation. When he was a child, he often fought with other boys in the class over trivial matters of reputation.
Xiao Youran had tactfully advised Xu Xiuwen to repeat a grade before, but he strongly opposed it, as if repeating a grade was a great shame.
That's why Xiao Youran thought that if Xu Xiuwen confessed to her, she would ask him to repeat the year by agreeing to confess. Only in this way would Xu Xiuwen agree.
But Xu Xiuwen didn't confess his love, and he had been so cold lately, so Xiao Youran had almost given up.
I didn't expect that he would repeat it in this way.
Xiao Youran was very excited.
When she thought about Xu Xiuwen repeating his senior year and getting admitted to Jiaotong University next year, the two of them could be together openly without worrying about their mother's objection.
The grievances, depression and anger of these days disappeared in an instant.
She was immersed in joy, her eyes and eyebrows curved into a smile.
Xu Xiuwen accidentally caught a glimpse of Xiao Youran's expression. Based on his past understanding of Xiao Youran, and then thinking about the school he applied to, people who didn't know much about it would really think it was the same school.
He was not the type of person who would ruin other people's mood when they were happy, but when facing Xiao Youran, he thought it would be better to make things clear.
"Xiao Youran, I applied to the Jiaotong University Jiangling College, which is a third-tier university, not the Jiaotong University you mentioned. With my grades, I will definitely be admitted. Don't dream that I will repeat my studies."
"Ah?" Xiao Youran, who was still immersed in joy, was stunned by Xu Xiuwen's words.
When I came to my senses and was about to ask, I saw that Xu Xiuwen had already stood up and left, without any intention of staying.
Xiao Youran's mouth instantly pursed in grievance, but she didn't dare to say anything more. She just hurriedly chased after him.
When Xu Xiuwen saw her catching up, he asked angrily, "Why are you following me?"
Xiao Youran felt confused and aggrieved. She turned her head away, not looking into Xu Xiuwen's eyes. "Can't I go home?"
Xu Xiuwen glanced at Yang Xiaoxiao next to him and said sarcastically, "Xiao Youran went home, and you followed her home? How come you live in the same neighborhood as her? How come I didn't know?"
Yang Xiaoxiao was ridiculed by Xu Xiuwen and felt a little embarrassed.
She suddenly stopped and shouted at Xu Xiuwen, "Xu Xiuwen, why are you so arrogant? And you are going too far! It was you who forcefully kissed Youran that night. You should be the one who is angry. You are the one who did something wrong. It's fine if you don't apologize or take responsibility, but you are even throwing a tantrum! What's the right?"
Yang Xiaoxiao was the deputy monitor and the English class representative. She had criticized Xu Xiuwen's behavior several times in high school. But she basically accused him of not making progress, thinking about playing all day, and asked him not to hold the class back.
Xiao Youran used to think that Yang Xiaoxiao was right because she also believed that Xu Xiuwen should play less and read more.
But this time, although Yang Xiaoxiao accused Xu Xiuwen of speaking for her, it was not the scene she wanted to see.
So as soon as Yang Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Xiao Youran showed a worried look on his face.
These days, she felt that Xu Xiuwen was a little strange, so strange that it made her a little scared.
She didn't want their relationship to get worse because of Yang Xiaoxiao.
She hadn't seen Xu Xiuwen for almost half a month. This was the first time in so many years. She was not used to it and couldn't sleep well at night.
Xu Xiuwen was annoyed, and Xiao Youran happened to be right next to him, so he thought it would be better to make things clear in person all at once to avoid having to explain it again and again in the future.
He took a deep breath and then said, "Yes, I was the one who did something wrong. I really shouldn't have kissed her. I can apologize now. As for taking responsibility, Yang Xiaoxiao, are you mistaken? It was Xiao Youran who said that she didn't want to fall in love when she went to college, but I'm different. I just like the sour smell of love. We are two different people. What do you want me to do?"
As he said this, he turned and looked at Xiao Youran.
"You want me to take responsibility, right? Okay, then I'll confess."
"Xiao Youran, I like you very much. Do you want to be my girlfriend or just a stranger in the future? It's your choice."
Xiao Youran didn't expect Xu Xiuwen to confess directly.
Her first reaction was to agree quickly, but she hesitated.
What she hesitated about was not whether she should agree to him, but whether she should agree to him now!
If Xu Xiuwen could coax her, comfort her, and speak to her in kind words, how could she not agree
But Xu Xiuwen had such an arrogant and cold attitude, and used such a coercive tone.
This was completely different from the romantic confession Xiao Youran was expecting.
Xiao Youran also has his own pride.
Although she felt aggrieved, sad, depressed and surprised these days, the pride she had developed over the years prevented her from agreeing immediately.
But she didn't want to refuse, so she remained silent.
Seeing Xiao Youran silent, Xu Xiuwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He understood Xiao Youran's character and knew that she would not agree so easily, especially under this situation.
Otherwise, if she really agrees, it will be difficult to do, but it is not difficult either.
At worst, we can just date for a while and then break up with any reason.
Fearing that Xiao Youran would regret it, Xu Xiuwen quickly said, "Yang Xiaoxiao, you saw it, Xiao Youran, it's not that I don't want to take responsibility, it's that you don't know how to cherish."
This sentence was a bit too heavy for Xiao Youran.
The girl, who had never suffered much of a blow, was suddenly at a loss as to what to do.
Xu Xiuwen ignored her and turned and left after saying that.
When Xiao Youran saw his departing back, her nose felt sore. She tried to hold it back, but couldn't help it and tears flowed down.
She didn't want to cry because she felt embarrassed, but she cried anyway.
Then she cried loudly on purpose, hoping Xu Xiuwen would hear her.
He had never been willing to let her cry before.
But this time, Xu Xiuwen left without stopping for a moment.
The midday sun shone from the south, leaving three short black shadows on the main road of the school.
Xiao Youran looked at Xu Xiuwen's departing back with tears in her eyes...
Xu Xiuwen filled out his application on July 5th, and his admission letter arrived on July 20th.
Xu Xiuwen did not go to the school in person to get the admission letter, but asked his mother to bring it back.
This was naturally done to avoid meeting Xiao Youran, but unexpectedly, what was coming would eventually come and there was no way to avoid it.
After the admission letters came out, major hotels and restaurants began to hold thank-you banquets for teachers and graduation banquets.
Xu Xiuwen only passed the third-tier exam, and Ning Wanqiu was too embarrassed to hold a graduation banquet, so she just invited a group of people she had good relations with to her house for dinner.
On the day of the dinner party, Ning Wanqiu got up early to prepare the dishes.
As Ning Wanqiu's best friend, Zhang Ruoshu would naturally not be absent.
Xiao Youran also came to Xu Xiuwen's house with his parents.
Chapter 12 Xiao Youran: He Ignores Me
The two haven't seen each other for half a month since the last time they filled out their applications.
Xu Xiuwen didn't care, but Xiao Youran was very uncomfortable.
Even Xiao's father asked at home a few days ago, "Why haven't I seen Xiao Xu recently?"
Xiao Youran never told her parents about Xu Xiuwen forcefully kissing her. She only told her mother that Xu Xiuwen confessed to her and she rejected it.
Zhang Ruoshu said, "Xiao Xu confessed to your daughter and was rejected, so he didn't come. Didn't you see that your daughter has been distracted recently and can't even enjoy her meal?"
After hearing this, Father Xiao saw that his daughter looked aggrieved, and he laughed, then said, "It's a little early to fall in love now, but this won't work. Next time we meet, I have to talk to Xiao Xu. Even if we can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, we can still be friends."
From that day on, Xiao Youran placed her hopes of reconciliation on her father.
Because apart from her father, she really had no other choice.
These days, she had looked for Xu Xiuwen on Penguin, but Xu Xiuwen did as he said last time, if they couldn't be boyfriend and girlfriend, they should be strangers. No matter what messages she sent, they fell on deaf ears and there was no response at all.
At this moment, Xiao Youran missed the past so much, and how much Xu Xiuwen valued her at that time.
Unfortunately, since that forced kiss and the subsequent confession, their relationship has been drifting further and further apart.
Until now, I can’t even say a word.
Xiao Youran no longer hopes that Xu Xiuwen can return to the way he was before. She just hopes that he can take care of her, and she will be satisfied.
When Xiao Youran's family came, Xu Xiuwen didn't want to pay any attention to Xiao Youran, so he simply hid in the room and didn't come out, leaving everything outside to his mother to deal with alone.
Fortunately, they are all good friends and I don’t need to be served by them. If I need anything, I can just ask for it. If all else fails, Zhang Ruoshu will help me.
