The girl stared at him with her tearful eyes.
Xu Xiuwen said in a deep voice: "I didn't lie to you. Cheng Lu and I are boyfriend and girlfriend. We got together on the second night of the New Year's Eve party last semester."
"Don't cry for now..."
As soon as Xu Xiuwen opened his mouth, he found that his voice was a little hoarse.
Seeing this, An Shishi immediately grabbed the tissues on the coffee table, pulled out a few pieces, and handed them to Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen didn't answer.
She quickly handed it to Xiao Youran again.
Xiao Youran didn't answer either.
Her emotions were on the verge of collapse.
She stared at Xu Xiuwen and asked, "Why didn't you tell me? Why did you hide it from me?"
"I'm afraid you'll be sad!"
Xiao Youran talked to herself, repeating: "Afraid that I would be sad... Afraid that I would be sad..."
After repeating it several times, she asked again: "Since you were with her, why did you come to me that night? Why did you want to be with me? Why did you tell me that you would always treat me well? Were you lying to me?"
As soon as Xiao Youran said this.
The living room suddenly became quiet.
Cheng Lu's eyes froze for a moment.
Xu Xiuwen felt a chill on his back, as if a pair of cold eyes were staring at his back.
He knew that without a suitable explanation, Cheng Lu’s personality would probably explode.
The situation is heading out of control.
Xu Xiuwen now has two choices.
The first option: clean it up.
He said that Xiao Youran had misunderstood everything. What he meant that night was that he would treat her as his sister from now on and always be nice to her.
As a result, Cheng Lu might be angry for a while, but he probably won't break up. But Xiao Youran will be heartbroken.
Second option: admit everything.
Only in this way will Cheng Lu see the scumbag he is.
With Cheng Lu's proud personality.
I will definitely break up with him.
Neither of these two options is what Xu Xiuwen wants to see.
But he had to choose one.
Xu Xiuwen was silent for a long time.
Finally he looked up, first glanced at Cheng Lu, and then at Xiao Youran.
Xiao Youran was crying with tears in her eyes.
Cheng Lu was much calmer.
Xu Xiuwen did not answer immediately, but slowly said another sentence.
“I have brought this upon myself,” he said.
He looked at Xiao Youran: "Youran, you are my first love. I have always liked you since I was a child."
"Then why did you—"
Xu Xiuwen interrupted her, "Listen to me. There is one thing I have never told you. After the college entrance examination, the class monitor told me that they saw you and other boys being very close together, and they also said that you didn't like me at all. I believed it at the time. I thought I was just being sentimental, so I took the initiative to distance myself from you."
The real reason was: in the previous life, because of Cao Yu's mischief, Xu Xiuwen and Xiao Youran thought that the other did not like each other, and they separated because of this misunderstanding.
After rebirth, Xu Xiuwen didn't know the truth until the dinner party. But because of the misunderstanding in the previous life, Xu Xiuwen had been avoiding her in this life. On the day she confessed her love, he firmly rejected her and stayed with Cheng Lu.
But it was difficult to tell Xiao Youran the truth, so Xu Xiuwen made up an excuse.
After hearing this, Xiao Youran had no doubt at all.
She couldn't understand why Xu Xiuwen was so close to her the day before, but his attitude towards her changed drastically on the night of the farewell dinner.
After that, he showed an attitude of never seeing each other again.
Now the truth is finally revealed.
She finally found out the reason.
It turns out it was all a misunderstanding.
It's all the squad leader's gang's fault.
When Xiao Youran heard this, she burst into tears.
She looked at Xu Xiuwen and asked unwillingly, "Why do you believe everything others say? Why don't you ask me in person? From childhood to adulthood, I have never spoken more than three sentences to other boys except you. Why do you think I don't like you?"
Her voice became hoarse from crying.
Xu Xiuwen was silent.
Xiao Youran sobbed and said, "Xiao Xu, I'm not angry. Please don't be with Cheng Lu anymore, okay? Let's make peace. I will always love you."
Under Xiao Youran's expectant gaze, Xu Xiuwen shook his head.
Xu Xiuwen continued, "After entering college, I have taken the initiative to avoid you. You should be able to sense it. Later, when I met Cheng Lu, I really fell in love with her, so I can't give up Cheng Lu for you."
Xiao Youran cried, "Then don't come to me, why do you want to come to me? Why do you want to give me hope!"
Xu Xiuwen nodded and said, "That's what I originally planned, so when you confessed to me that day, I rejected you."
Xiao Youran recalled what happened that day.
That day she took the initiative to confess to Xiao Xu, but was rejected.
Xiao Xu also said that he fell in love with someone else.
Later, after she was with Xiao Xu, she deliberately ignored this matter.
Now she realized that Xiao Xu had not lied to her.
He really fell in love with someone else.
Xu Xiuwen continued, "I always thought I had let go of our past feelings, but that day when I found out it was the squad leader and the others who were causing trouble and that everything was a misunderstanding, I realized that I still had you in my heart, so I couldn't help but went to look for you."
He glanced at Xiao Youran and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry Youran, I shouldn't have believed what others said, and I shouldn't have provoked you after I had Cheng Lu."
Xiao Youran just cried and didn't say anything.
Xu Xiuwen looked at Cheng Lu again and said apologetically, "Cheng Lu, I'm sorry. No matter how angry you are or how you scold me, I can accept it. I was too greedy. I thought I had let You Ran go, but I found out that I was deceiving myself. It's all my fault."
Xu Xiuwen has finished speaking.
He frankly admitted his cheating.
The four girls also understood the whole situation.
Xiao Youran was heartbroken and couldn't stop crying.
She hated those people like the squad leader.
If they hadn't interfered, there would have been no misunderstanding between Xiao Xu and me, and we would have been together a long time ago.
There was no chance for Cheng Lu to intervene.
Song Siyu originally thought that Xu Xiuwen was a cheating scumbag.
But after listening to it now, I still think that Xu Xiuwen's cheating was wrong.
But deep down in my heart, there seemed to be a voice saying that Xu Xiuwen's behavior was actually understandable.
And she even felt that Xu Xiuwen was very affectionate.
Because he never changed his mind about liking Xiao Youran until the end.
An Shishi also suddenly realized.
Ever since she met Xu Xiuwen and Xiao Youran at the beginning of the school year, she had been puzzled by their relationship.
Although they were childhood sweethearts, Xu Xiuwen seldom came to Jiaotong University to visit Xiao Youran.
Moreover, Xu Xiuwen later became boyfriend and girlfriend with Cheng Lu.
Now I finally understand.
Different from Xiao Youran.
She was glad that there was such a misunderstanding between them.
If there is no misunderstanding.
Xu Xiuwen will be with Xiao Youran directly.
An Shishi didn't think that her childhood sweethearts were someone she could interfere with.
So she felt a little relieved.
