Chapter 10 I'll depend on you forever! 1
"Tiantian, I'm sorry to make you sad again. But I have to leave now. However, I will be back soon, believe me. Goodbye."
After school, I lay on the desk, staring at the blue note in the book without blinking, and read it out loud!
I squinted my eyes slightly, and a tall figure seemed to appear in the empty seat in front of me. He had his hands in his pockets, and there was no expression on his handsome face. His whole body exuded an oppressive chill, and his eyes were as cold as an iceberg!
"An Shengyi..." A smile gradually appeared on the corner of my mouth, and I tilted my head and stared blankly at the blurry figure in front of me!
"Damn you! Wake up!" The crisp voice broke my beautiful fantasy, and my head was also "violently attacked" at the same time!
Xiao Fan tapped me and sighed softly. Then he looked at me with a smile and said seriously, "The 21st time! Not bad, very sweet. Today I read it one less time than yesterday... I believe that in another month, you will be able to completely give up on that guy!"
"Xiao Fan, why don't you even believe me..." I pouted, looked at Xiao Fan with reproach, and pressed the note neatly into the book!
"Wrong! I believe you, but I don't believe him!" Xiao Fan growled softly, and with a "snap" he pressed down the book I was about to put in my bag, staring at the book with a frown!
"An Shengyi...he will probably be back tomorrow!" I tried to smile and explained in a cheerful voice.
"Forget it, you've been saying this for a month!" Xiao Fan shook his head helplessly, sitting in front of me, looking at me seriously, "Didn't that guy say he would come back as soon as possible? Tiantian, he has been gone for a month!"
"Maybe... maybe he has something urgent to do..." I avoided Xiaofan's gaze and continued to explain in a low voice.
"Really? Then why can't I get through to him on the phone? Why didn't he call you? He hasn't sent any messages for a whole month! It's obvious that he doesn't want to come back!" Xiao Fan stood up suddenly, clenched his fists, and shouted angrily, "He just wants to dump you in this way! An Shengyi, this despicable and shameful liar!"
"Xiaofan! An Shengyi won't do that!" I bit my lip, turned my head to look out the window, and tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to overflow!
"Tiantian, stop lying to yourself. He really won't come back! I heard from the teachers that when An Shengyi transferred to Yingshang, he used a temporary student status. That means he was ready to leave from the beginning!" Xiaofan walked over to me, took my hand, and patiently persuaded me, "You once said that as long as An Shengyi becomes normal, he won't need you to be his shadow anymore!"
"But, he likes me, and he said he would never leave me..." I finally couldn't hold back my tears and said painfully on Xiaofan's shoulder!
"Tiantian, don't you believe in fairy tales? His love for you may just be the magic of fairy tales! So, when the curse is lifted, love will disappear with it!" Xiaofan patted my shoulder and explained softly. Xiaofan, who never believed in fairy tales, actually used such a "childish" reason to persuade me!
"Is it really like this... Then why do I still like him so much... Wuuuu, Xiaofan, I'm really sad, I miss him so much..." I couldn't stop crying, and the despair in my heart was overflowing bit by bit. Perhaps soon, it would slowly drown out my longing for An Shengyi!
"Don't worry, you will definitely forget him! You are a super energetic girl, Man Tiantian!" Xiao Fan helped me up, wiped away my tears, clenched his fists with a smile, and encouraged me confidently!
"Hmm..." I blinked, tried to smile, and nodded vigorously!
My eyes passed Xiaofan and unconsciously fell on An Shengyi's original seat. I couldn't help but whisper in my heart: An Shengyi, your disappearance really means you want to tell me that you want to leave me completely...
After calming down, I packed up my desk and decided to go home with Xiaofan! But just as we walked to the school gate, several girls suddenly blocked us. I was stunned for a moment, looked up at the girl in the lead, and looked stunned!
"Ji Yaoyu?" I glanced at her and the girl behind her, and asked her doubtfully, "What can I do for you?"
“Man Tiantian, aren’t you always arrogant?” Ji Yaoyu crossed her arms, raised her chin slightly, looked at me with disdain, and her voice was full of hostility, “Humph, I didn’t expect you to be dumped by the prince so soon! Hahaha, Cinderella is Cinderella, she will never be a princess!”
"Hey! Ji Yaoyu, you're going too far!" The angry Xiao Fan immediately stopped in front of me and glared at her righteously!
At this moment, Ji Yaoyu was wearing a denim skirt. She was no longer as gentle and elegant as before, but rather a bit domineering! And the friend who followed her was no longer a ladylike friend, but an arrogant girl who was covered in metal elements like her!
"Xiaoyu is right! How can an ugly girl like you become a popular princess on Sakura? It's so funny!" The girl covered in metal elements echoed Ji Yaoyu loudly!
"Hmph, Ji Yaoyu, I think you are jealous of Tiantian!" Xiaofan also crossed his arms, showing the momentum of the discipline leader, staring at Ji Yaoyu and said, "Last time you hurt Tiantian, the school issued a school-wide notice to punish you, and because of this, everyone hated you and you fell off the popularity list. That's why you are jealous of Tiantian becoming the only popular princess on Yingshang!"
"Fang Xiaofan!" Ji Yaoyu's face changed drastically. She turned pale with anger and stared at Xiaofan with wide eyes. Then she turned around and stared at me with even more hatred. Her pretty face became hideous because of extreme anger!
"Ji Yaoyu, I'm not in the mood to argue with you!" I sighed, said calmly, and pulled Xiaofan to leave.
"Of course you're not in the mood!" Ji Yaoyu didn't want to stop there. She stepped forward to stop me and said arrogantly, "I've said it before, An Shengyi doesn't like ordinary girls like you! He just feels sorry for you, so he's bewitched by you. Humph, now, he's finally tired of you and dumped you! What else do you have to show off!"
"Shut up! You don't know anything, so why do you say he hates me!" As soon as I heard An Shengyi's name, my emotions got out of control and I immediately fought back like an angry animal!
"Haha, it's enough for me to know that An Shengyi will never appear by your side again! Man Tiantian, I believe that everyone on Sakura will recognize your true face like An Shengyi, and then no one will like you anymore! Hahaha..." Ji Yaoyu suddenly laughed wildly, her eyes full of hatred and disdain!
"Shut up! An Shengyi will definitely come back..." I was frightened by Ji Yaoyu's crazy words, and I couldn't help but refute her, but my voice became noticeably smaller...
"Hey, hey! Look everyone, the popular princess on Sakura has been dumped..."
"Yeah, yeah! Of course a girl as ugly as him would be dumped!"
"Hahaha, there probably aren't any boys in Sakura who would like such an ugly girl..."
The girl covered in metal suddenly shouted loudly , attracting many people to watch. An Shengyi's disappearance had been speculated for a long time, and now, curious classmates gathered around to talk about it, and many girls even shouted with gloating!
"Hey! You guys...what are you looking at! Disperse..." Xiao Fan pulled me, who looked embarrassed, and tried to disperse the crowd.
"Wow! My dear princess, why are you still here? I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Tiantian! You are here. I have been looking for you for a long time!"
Suddenly, a call came from the crowd at the same time. Everyone immediately stopped talking and turned to look at the two people who were speaking at the same time but had completely opposite temperaments!
The boy in a light grey casual coat exudes an elegant temperament, like the soft moonlight that makes people feel peaceful, while the other boy in a colorful outfit is like a vibrant star, with his big eyes also shining with bright stars!
"Senior Lin Chen? Jian Xiaodan? Why are you here..." I looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in astonishment, and blurted out in confusion.
"Tiantian!" Jiandan glared at Lin Chen, then quickly walked to my side, took my hand and said excitedly, "They said you dumped An Shengyi? That's great, you must have dumped An Dabenzhong for me! I'm so touched..."
"Hey! Jiandan, are you kidding me? It was clearly An Shengyi who dumped this ugly girl..." Ji Yaoyu immediately retorted angrily!
"Shut up!" Jiandan showed a rare trace of annoyance, frowned again, and swept a dangerous look around everyone, saying dissatisfiedly: "I said, it was my princess who threw the big clock! Do you understand?"
"Jian Xiaodan, stop it, I'm fine..." I was amused by Jian Xiaodan's pretending to be serious expression, so I pulled his arm and whispered.
"Jian Jian is right!" Lin Chen suddenly agreed with Jian Jian loudly. He also stepped forward, a gentle smile overflowing from his eyes, and his voice was as gentle as usual, "Tian Tian, since you no longer like An Shengyi, then, can you consider accepting me!"
"boom!"
My mind went blank instantly ! My smile froze on my face! Black lines kept appearing on my forehead!
"Hey! Lin Xiaochen, Tiantian dumped An Dabenzhong for me! Do you want to be dumped too?" Jian Dan immediately glared at Lin Chen provocatively!
"Jian Dan, you are too confident. I think you should be the one who is dumped!" The usually serious senior suddenly looked at Jian Dan with a sly smile!
Countless black lines suddenly appeared on my forehead, and the corners of my mouth unconsciously pulled into a stiff smile. I held my forehead, lowered my head and whispered: "Jian Xiaodan! Senior Lin Chen! What are you two doing? This kind of joke is not funny at all..."
"I'm not kidding!" The two people refuted me in unison!
"Wow! Man Tiantian is indeed the popular princess of Sakura. Right after she was dumped, two princes confessed their love to her..."
"Ah! You guys think, could it be that Man Tiantian really dumped An Shengyi? So, His Royal Highness was so sad that he left school?"
"Hmm, I think it's possible..."
Suddenly, another kind of discussion was heard in the crowd. I looked at the onlookers with admiring faces in amazement. I never expected that I had gone from being a "poor dumped guy" to a proud princess in the blink of an eye?
"Don't believe her..." Ji Yaoyu suddenly yelled in frustration, and the onlookers began to point fingers at the angry Ji Yaoyu. Ji Yaoyu was so angry that her face turned red. After glaring at me fiercely, she turned around and ran away from the crowd!
"Humph! This is so satisfying! Let's see if she dares to be so arrogant again in the future!" Xiao Fan showed a triumphant smile on his face, then he put his hands on his hips and glared at the people around him, instantly turning into a "discipline warrior" and loudly driving everyone , "No gatherings to cause trouble! Not even after school! Disperse!"
My world finally returned to peace. I gave Xiaofan a grateful smile, then pursed my lips to face Jian Dan and Senior Lin Chen, spread my hands and bowed slightly, jokingly saying, "Thank you, Your Highnesses, for helping me out!"
"It's my honor," Senior Lin Chen smiled softly, and then cooperated with me, half seriously and half jokingly saying, "But I'm telling the truth, I hope the princess will consider it!"
"Uh..." I was stunned for a moment, looked at the senior's expression, then relaxed and deliberately glanced at Xiao Fan and said, "Senior, don't tease me, otherwise my good friend will become my love rival..."
"Huh? Really? Who is it?" The senior student really laughed, and at my signal he looked at Xiaofan! Unfortunately, Xiaofan was still conscientiously driving away the onlookers, looking at us with a puzzled look, not knowing what was going on!
"And you, Jian Xiaodan, since you came here to make trouble just to help me, I won't be angry, right?" I sighed softly, looked at him with a smile, and pulled Xiaofan to leave.
"Who said I was making trouble?" Jian Dan suddenly stopped me and said seriously, "Tian Tian, I'm not kidding, I really hope you can accept me!"
"You..." I looked at Jian Dan in astonishment, blinking unconsciously, and said puzzledly, "Impossible...Why?"
"You know how much I hope An Da Ben disappears!" Jian Dan suddenly smiled helplessly. At this moment, he was nothing like the willful and casual young master I knew. There was an unfamiliar seriousness on his face. Then he took my hand and said affectionately, "Tiantian, actually, I fell in love with you the time you put on the dress. If An Da Ben hadn't messed with me, I would have confessed my feelings to you a long time ago. But it's not too late now. I finally waited for this day. Tiantian, I like you..."
"Stop!" I pulled my hands away abruptly and crossed them across my chest. I felt a little scared, so I frowned and stared at him warily, "Jian Xiaodan! You're joking too much!"
"Tiantian, I'm not kidding, I really like you!" That simple look suddenly became like a burning flame, and he explained to me anxiously!
I suddenly understood why An Shengyi was once hostile to simplicity. He said he didn’t like simple eyes!
I looked at Jian Dan blankly, but Jian Dan's expression became even more anxious, and even her voice trembled with anxiety: "Tian Tian, don't you believe me? I get it, you must think that my confession is not formal enough, right? Ah, I can direct another drama and let all the students in the school witness my confession! Or, I can also customize a poster that is bigger and write my confession declaration to you! Oh, right, I can also let the four major media outlets in Sakura City promote me..."
"Jiandan, stop it!" I interrupted Jiandan's "grand plan" with a smile on my face, then smiled bitterly and shook my head, saying, "I believe you."
"Really?" Jian Dan was instantly surprised. "So, you agree to accept me, right?"
"I can't agree to this!" I bit my lip, put my hand on my heart unconsciously, looked at Jian Dan and answered him seriously, "Because, he is still here! Before I forget him, I can't like anyone else!"
"Damn it! It's Big Ben again!" Jiandan growled with gritted teeth. He was silent for a second, then looked at me calmly, "It doesn't matter. That guy won't come back! So you will definitely forget about him! I will keep waiting!"
"Simple, you don't have to..." I looked at him in embarrassment, but when I thought that An Shengyi might really not come back, my heart suddenly twitched!
"Tiantian! An Shengyi is obviously going to dump you! Why are you still waiting for him?" Xiaofan suddenly stepped forward, persuading her angrily, and patted Jiandan's shoulder, saying seriously, "Hey! I support you!"
“Tiantian, An Shengyi might have suddenly disappeared because he didn’t dare to face you. If he really is someone who doesn’t even dare to say goodbye, then he is not worth your waiting!” Senior Lin Chen also walked forward and said with some pain.
"You guys..." I stared blankly at everyone who were trying to persuade me. The sadness in my heart surged up like a tide. Xiaofan's words, Ji Yaoyu's sarcasm, and the simple sudden confession came like a storm. The hope hidden in my heart was like a spark, being extinguished bit by bit!
Damn it! Where are you, An Shengyi? Are you really not coming back? Are you really afraid to face me and that’s why you disappeared? If that’s the case, then why do you still leave me hope! Why should I bear this alone!
"Alright! Stop talking!" I suddenly got angry, bit my lip to hold back my anger, and said bitterly, "I've decided! I'll tell you the answer!"
"So Tiantian, what you mean is..." Xiaofan took my hand and looked at me worriedly.
"I want to take a gamble," I pursed my lips and smiled with difficulty, and said loudly, "He and I met because of a photo, so let the photo tell me the answer! I will soon participate in the photography competition on Sakuragami, and then I will let the result of the competition decide whether I should forget An Shengyi. At that time, I will also seriously consider your words and give you the answer!"
"Really? But Tiantian, how does the photography results determine whether you want to forget him?" Jiandan immediately looked at me excitedly!
"I will take An Shengyi's photo to participate in the competition. If I win, I will continue to wait for him; if I lose, I will forget about him!" I took a deep breath and said this in the most natural tone, but my heart suddenly skipped a beat the moment I finished speaking!
"Tiantian, you still can't forget him... With your skills, isn't it easy for you to win the award?" Jiandan said with his head lowered, feeling a little disappointed.
"Thank you for the compliment." I thanked him quietly, and then pretended to be casual and said, "But the theme of this year's competition is scenery."
After saying that, I turned around and walked away slowly, because I was afraid that the disobedient tears would suddenly overflow from the corners of my eyes!
