Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

This was Liu Ou, who had actually considered everything when she confessed her feelings.

She also calmly said that nobody knows what the future holds.

They were all still young, and it's really rare for anyone to guarantee how long youthful passion can last.

Liu Ou was very sober and rational.

All her impulsiveness might have been given to the boy in front of her.

Starting from that fireworks display and the kiss that made both their hearts race.

Everything seemed to have gone awry since then. Liu Ou had always thought she would follow the path her parents had arranged for her.

She never thought of rebelling because she didn't care, it was all the same anyway.

When she first met Lin Yu, it was because of Luoluo. Luoluo liked Xie Xiao, and Xie Xiao was friends with Lin Yu.

It seemed so natural to become friends and hang out together.

But everything developed in an uncontrollable direction.

She liked seeing Lin Yu with his grandmother.

She liked eating the rice balls from his family's place, not just because they were cheap but also large servings.

Actually, she had eaten many rice balls at his grandmother's place before knowing Lin Yu.

She would go there whenever she felt upset.

The old lady's voice was very gentle, with an elderly's characteristic nagging and concern, "Why do you look unhappy?"

"If studying is too exhausting, rest well. Parents nowadays, they pass all the pressure to their children..."

"I have a grandson about your age, he is always thinking about playing, but his grades aren't bad either..."

She had heard about this person from the grandmother even before she met him.

Actually, Liu Ou had been curious about what kind of person the grandson, who the grandmother would always talk about with customers, could be.

Until she truly met Lin Yu, saw his youthful impatience, yet his hands were gently helping his grandmother sell things.

Boys of this age somewhat care about their face.

Yet the boy standing at the stall didn't mind. When ridiculed by classmates, he would feign irritation and shout, "Go away! If you eat, add two more bucks!"

He was openly sunny and never felt there was anything shameful about it.

Liu Ou felt that her grandmother was right, her grandson was indeed a good boy.

The longer they were together, the more she realized he was a boy with a tough exterior but a soft heart.

He was sunny and handsome. Liu Ou had seen underclassmen secretly taking photos of him and Xie Xiao at school.

She had seen their fan posts.

She had also seen girls confess to him on forums.

She had even seen girls stopping him to confess after class.

The boy, who seemed hot-tempered and impatient, unexpectedly stood still and listened to the girl complete her timid confession with a flushed face.

Liu Ou knew he was in a rush; he needed to go back to help his grandmother at the stall.

But the youth's unique gentleness was listening completely to the girl's brave confession in front of him.

Then he reached into his backpack and took out a candy, "I'm sorry, I appreciate your feelings, but I have no plans in that regard right now."

The girl still cried.

Lin Yu took out a tissue along with the candy and handed it over, "You're very cute, but I'm so sorry."

Finally, the girl left.

Liu Ou observed this scene curiously from behind a tree.

Lin Yu seemed gentler than she had imagined.

Then their eyes met, and he seemed shy, his ears turning red.

Liu Ou found it amusing and shouted with a laugh, "Hey, I didn't mean to."

Eventually, the shy boy forcibly took her to have a meal together.

As they walked with a scallion pancake each, he suddenly said, "Isn't it a bit shabby of me to treat you to scallion pancakes?"

His tone was hesitant, as if he had just realized it.

But soon he added, "But I really am in a hurry right now, I'll treat you to a meal next time."

Liu Ou said indifferently, "No worries, I think the hand-grabbed pancakes are quite tasty, but still, grandma's rice balls are better."

The youth looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes and then nodded proudly, "Definitely, the old lady makes delicious food, I'll take you there for a meal sometime..."

Later, Luoluo and Xie Xiao dated, and among the four of them, there would always be two left out.

Lin Yu spent much more time with her than they thought.

Liu Ou also realized later that she and Lin Yu had become so familiar that he could clearly see any change in her emotions.

Lin Yu was a very contradictory person.

He seemed careless on the surface, but he was also quite delicate.

Of course, he was still very slow when it came to emotions.

Liu Ou had seen girls openly and secretly show interest in him at least three times.

But Lin Yu seemed to be oblivious.

When the four went out again and only two came back,

Liu Ou curiously asked, "What type of girl do you like?"

At the time, Lin Yu was eating an ice cream; the weather had started to get hot, and he preferred milk-flavored ice cream.

No, Lin Yu seemed to like all snacks that were milk-flavored...

Liu Ou suddenly froze, realizing unconsciously that she knew perhaps too much about Lin Yu.

Much more than she had imagined.

This realization made Liu Ou frown unwillingly.

Because she was distracted, she didn't hear clearly what Lin Yu had said.

But her chaotic inner thoughts also made her hesitant to ask more.

Actually, thinking about it now, perhaps Lin Yu was not the first to be moved.

Liu Ou looked at the boy in front of her, who had matured much since they first met, and even his personality had changed.

Xie Xiao used to joke that Lin Yu was like a walking time bomb.

But now, Liu Ou could even see a hint of gentleness in him.

The boy who had once laughed wildly, sweating on the playground, seemed to have suddenly grown up.

Liu Ou felt a sense of strangeness, but each time he stole glances at her, they were still the same as before.

Candid yet panicked.

But since returning this time, Liu Ou could feel that his glances at her had become less frequent.

She didn't know if it was deliberate control or if he truly didn't want to steal glances anymore.

Xie Xiao deliberately mentioned a girl asking Lin Yu for his contact details, and Liu Ou understood Xie Xiao's probing.

At the time, she just smiled and said nothing, but her heart couldn't help but feel a tug.

Liu Ou actually watched all of Lin Yu's live streams.

She paid more attention to him than Lin Yu thought.

Liu Ou could not quite explain her feelings when she first rejected Lin Yu.

But now, secretly following and being the first to confess was still her doing.

How contradictory.

Liu Ou had even prepared herself for the possibility that it would be quite reasonable for Lin Yu to reject her.

But at that moment, he said, "Liu Ou, let's be in a relationship."

Liu Ou couldn't clearly describe her feelings—happy, sad, and many more complex emotions.

Unclear and indescribable, but looking at Lin Yu's serious expression now, she smiled and said, "Okay."

I confessed first, and you agreeing to the relationship seems quite reasonable too.

After all, for Liu Ou, everything tonight was a mix of serendipity and long-held intentions.

But Lin Yu probably didn't know that yet.
