Chapter 3: Distant First Love Target two
Three months have passed since I started my new high school life. During this time, my academic performance has improved by leaps and bounds. I have been in the top ten in several consecutive exams. Studying is really a matter of hard work and talent. I tried my best to catch up, and with the little memory left in my mind, I still couldn't get the first place, but it was good enough. I rarely got into the top ten in the past! I tried to restrain my pride and happiness, and I had to feel guilty and continue to work hard. I had to do well enough to be qualified to enter St. John's and be worthy of my Anyixuan.
I was satisfied with my study progress for now, but there was still no progress with Anyi Xuan. We hadn't talked for three months, and every time we met he would run away. This couldn't go on, so I decided to use bribery and coercion again, asking Lingdang to give me another chance to sneak into St. John's.
In McDonald's, Lingling looked at me with her mouth full of greasy food, blinking her big watery eyes: "You still want to go?"
"Of course. It's been three months and there's still no progress in our relationship. This time there must be a breakthrough!" I vowed while biting the chicken leg.
Lingdang sighed: "You are really obsessed. It is wrong to fall in love too early. Let's talk about it when you are in college."
"Wait, wait, youth waits for no one! I've missed too much, this time I'll fight for it no matter what!" I was so excited that I crushed the French fries in my hand.
"Ah, don't be excited. What did you miss? Why don't you tell me why you fell in love with An Yixuan?" Lingdang looked at me weirdly and asked.
"Well, we met by chance and I fell in love with him..." I lowered my head to chew on the chicken leg, thinking about the scene when I first saw An Yixuan in college.
I rushed out of the library and bumped into An Yixuan, who was carrying a lot of books. Looking at the books scattered on the ground, An Yixuan coldly mocked me for not having eyes. He had a refreshing short hair, a white shirt and jeans, delicate features and fair skin, and his obsidian eyes sparkled. I was instantly attracted. Maybe it's really easy to be moved. He wore a white shirt in the sun and was as handsome as a prince on TV.
"I can't do anything about you, so I'll help you one more time." Lingling made a helpless expression, "Tomorrow at noon, I'll take some clothes and wait at the usual place."
I hugged Lingling excitedly and gave her a kiss, but in return she screamed miserably: "Your greasy hands, your greasy mouth, my clothes, my face!" She pushed me away in disgust and wiped her face hard with a tissue.
I was so immersed in joy that I ignored the bell. This time, I thought there should be some breakthrough. I was already thinking about how to confess to An Yixuan. Should I do it like we did in college? I thought to myself that I knew An Yixuan's preferences, so there shouldn't be any problems!
The next day at noon, I arrived at the agreed place early, and Lingling soon appeared with her old school uniform. I changed into it happily. Fortunately, there were no surveillance cameras here, otherwise it would be really dangerous. I hummed a little song and prepared to climb over the wall from the old place.
"Look how happy you are, as if An Yixuan is waiting to go on a date with you." Lingling rolled her eyes.
"You don't understand. It's easy for a girl to pursue a boy. Today I must get An Yixuan's contact information openly!" I climbed over the wall with a solemn promise.
Lingling trotted to the other side to meet me.
I think according to the routine in college, An Yixuan would not reject a girl who takes the initiative. He said that he especially likes the way I ask for his phone number in a domineering way.
Still on the playground, An Yixuan was still playing basketball handsomely. Lingdang and I sat on the sidelines and watched, shouting "Come on!" from time to time. An Yixuan's face turned pale when he saw me, and his movements became a little stiff, but he quickly adjusted. I watched him play with relish, cheering him on and serving him tea and water. For a moment, I almost felt like I was his girlfriend, if... he didn't have a look of guard and disgust on his face.
"Wow, An Yixuan, he's so handsome!" A girl's voice rang in my ears. I immediately became alert and glared at the new girls next to me.
They should also be freshman in high school, with pretty and gentle looks, but their expressions were all as if they were infatuated with each other, staring at my An Yixuan.
"He is a top student who was admitted with the highest score and he is so handsome. He will definitely be a great man when he grows up." Girl A said with a smile.
Girl B blinked her eyes, her face red as an apple: "A lot of girls must like such a handsome guy. I wonder what kind of girl he likes."
I complained in my heart, of course he likes girls like me, he will be mine when he grows up, you guys have no chance! I don't know why, I always feel that An Yixuan's eyes drift towards me, although he always looks away as soon as they meet, but I still feel sweet in my heart.
"We are all classmates. We will always have a chance to get to know each other." Girl C seemed to be imagining ways to get close to An Yixuan. "But I heard that he is cold and hard to approach, and his mouth is very poisonous."
"He's a handsome guy and a top student, so he has the capital to be arrogant. If he were like your deskmate, then what would he be good at?" Girl A said with a smile, pointing at C.
"Why are you dragging my desk mate into this when you can just look at the handsome guy? He is so handsome that he must have high standards. It would be hard to find anyone other than the school beauty. Also, handsome guys are mostly playboys and insecure."
Who says handsome guys are necessarily fickle? An Yixuan has been very honest since he got together with me. The only bad thing about him is that he is too sentimental. He rejected the many suitors but couldn't reject his ex-love.
"Another goal, great, come on An Yixuan!" Girl B has already shouted.
I pursed my lips, feeling unhappy. I always felt as if something of mine had been touched by others. Why should they judge my Anyixuan, my boyfriend!
An Yixuan's eyes drifted over again, and I immediately responded to him with peach blossoms in my eyes, but only for a moment, his eyes turned to other places again.
"An Yixuan is looking at me!"
"Obviously he was looking at me!"
Those girls got into a deep discussion about An Yixuan's glance, but I was too lazy to pay attention to them. An Yixuan must be looking at me. He must have started secretly paying attention to me!
"Xizi, are you really going to ask him for his contact information?" Lingling tugged at the corner of my clothes and asked, "I think you should think about it more. He's not easy to approach."
"Well, of course! I've made up my mind, I can definitely get close to him!" I clenched my fists and made up my mind.
Just as a football game was over, An Yixuan wiped the sweat from his head and face and walked to the shade of a tree. He picked up the water and drank it down. A lot of water spilled out and dripped from the corners of his mouth onto his chest, forming large balls of water splashes, which was so sexy that it made people's nose bleed!
"An Yixuan, I have something to tell you!" I mustered up my courage, ran all the way to his side, and said in an almost coercive tone. This is what I said when I stopped him for the second time. At that time, he looked at me with a smiling look and asked, "What do you want to do, girl?"
"I don't know you, classmate." An Yixuan screwed the bottle cap on and said to me with eyes that could freeze a person to death.
"How can we not know each other? I know your name is An Yixuan and mine is Sha Xizi. Let's be friends and exchange contact information?" My face turned slightly red, but I still said it the same way I did back then.
"But I don't want to be friends with you." An Yixuan said coldly.
Why did things turn out like this? An Yixuan was definitely not like this before! Shouldn't he have left me a way out? Shouldn't he have asked me what I wanted to do with a smile?
"It doesn't matter if you don't know me now, we will definitely have a relationship in the future!" I stopped him when he wanted to leave and continued, just like when I took the initiative to say I wanted to have a relationship 10 years later.
"You don't have a fever, do you? If you have any problems, please go to the infirmary." An Yixuan rolled his eyes at me and turned away.
I watched him leave, still unable to believe it: "An Yixuan, stop right there! If you leave now, you will never see me again!"
"That's great. Please don't disturb my life." An Yixuan turned around and said expressionlessly.
"How could you do this to me?" I asked aggrievedly.
"I think I've been very nice. You weirdo, I don't even know you." An Yixuan's expression was very cold. He walked very quickly this time, not giving me a chance to talk again.
Why did things turn out like this? We were clearly not like this before! I watched him leave quickly, my mind working fast, my memory wandering towards 10 years later.
"Xizi, you silly girl, you got this question wrong again. Won't your teacher be so annoyed by you?" In the study room, An Yixuan looked at me lovingly, and then gave me guidance bit by bit, as gentle as a spring breeze.
I also took him to eat a super terrible spicy hotpot. He, who could never eat spicy food, forced himself to eat a lot just to accompany me, and in the end his lips were swollen and red.
"I can't eat spicy food." An Yixuan frowned and sighed as he looked at the spicy hot pot.
"No, eat a little, eat with me, take a bite!" I picked up a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Oh, it's so spicy!" An Yixuan covered his mouth, his black jade eyes were watery, which made people feel pity.
I couldn't help but say, "Don't eat it if it's too spicy." I felt sad even though I was there to watch the joke.
"Oh, I'll eat it. I said I'd listen to you today." An Yixuan continued to eat the food with big mouthfuls, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead due to the spiciness.
So An Yixuan and I had a great time eating in the lively hotpot restaurant. After the meal, we took a walk along the moat. The moonlight was like water, and the breeze was blowing. In such a beautiful environment, he kept complaining that the food was too spicy.
"I'll go get you some ice water." Seeing An Yixuan jumping up and down because of the spiciness, I was also a little worried.
"Drinking water is useless. If I have a sweet kiss, maybe I will be fine." An Yixuan stared at me with his black eyes blinking, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hateful!" My face turned red and I punched him.
"Xizi, I eat so much spicy food just for you." An Yixuan pulled me into his arms and gave me a spicy kiss on my lips.
We have been together for so long since college, so long that I thought it would last forever. So many sweet memories, now it feels even more heartbreaking . I stood in the sun, my whole body was burning, but I couldn't wake up. My mind was overlapping with the memories of now and 10 years later, and tears flowed down my eyes.
