Chapter 3: Fate Takes You by Surprise
It's you! Someone said that geniuses are not important. Why is that enthusiasm gone?
Let's not dwell on the past. I'd be thankful if you don't slander me everywhere.
01
Do you believe in fate?
Some things, if they are yours, will come back even if they are gone, while those that are not yours will not be kept no matter how hard you try. This is probably the most common explanation of "If it is destined to be yours, you will get it eventually, and if it is not destined to be yours, don't force it."
One day after my father resolutely signed the divorce agreement and left home completely, I finally understood this truth.
Although it was a long time ago, I was no longer the naive girl who would be infatuated with handsome guys like Senior Brother Xiao Nai while carrying her schoolbag.
Although it is a little hard to adapt to the days without my father, at least, the life of just my mother and I is moving towards a sunny and positive direction.
The city washed by the heavy rain looks brand new; the rain takes away the city’s dirt and its bad past, and people usher in a new life.
The morning air was mixed with a hint of sweetness and fragrance. Before the scorching sun appeared , I rushed to school with crisp steps.
Eh? The back of the girl in front of me looks so familiar, like a charming girl! However, the girl is holding the boy's hand and leaning on him, looking like a little bird, especially happy and sweet.
No, no, it's definitely not Jiaomei. Jiaomei wouldn't have such a handsome guy around her so soon. But when the girl turned her face sideways and prepared to cross the road, my pupils instantly expanded three times!
It’s really Lin Jiaomei!
But what about the boy who was holding her hand and snuggling with her?
I was puzzled and could only call out to that guy immediately!
"Jiaomei! Look here!" I stood on tiptoe and waved at Jiaomei, indicating to her that I was in front of her.
Just as she turned around with the boy holding hands, I was shocked again!
God is so lovely, giving me such a shocking and wonderful news early in the morning! And the originator of the good news was my best friend Jiao Mei and the good friend of Ju Chenxi who made me have a heart-beating relationship - Gu Yufan.
For a moment, I felt that the world was suddenly in chaos, but in a very interesting way, with a hint of sweetness.
"Ahhh, tell me the truth, what's going on? You two are actually together!" When Jiaomei crossed the road and came in front of me, I went straight to the point and asked.
"Hey, Xiaole, come here for a moment." Jiaomei suddenly leaned close to my ear, indicating that she wanted to whisper to me.
"Bad guy, what's there to be embarrassed about? You should have shared it with me first, okay?" I blamed Jiaomei for not being the first to tell me the fact that she was dating Gu Yufan.
And in this private conversation, Jiaomei told me that when he was helping me to find out information about Gu Yufan, his words and actions warmed her and made her instantly attracted to him.
Not long after, she confessed her feelings to Gu Yufan.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yufan also found Jiaomei quite interesting. He noticed her that night at the movie viewing party.
The two hit it off immediately and of course got together soon!
It's just that Jiaomei felt guilty towards me unilaterally, thinking that I should have liked Gu Yufan, but she got there first.
I immediately slapped her, then gently comforted her: "I don't like Gu Yufan, I'm just more interested in his identity, so there's no such thing as you stealing the boy I like, don't take it to heart."
Only then was the embarrassment that should not have existed resolved.
"Hi, I'm Gu Yufan. We've met before . Nice to meet you." Gu Yufan took the initiative to extend his hand to greet me. At this time, he had already become the official boyfriend of my good friend Lin Jiaomei.
He looked at her charmingly, filled with pampering and love all the time.
"Hi, I'm Yan Zhile, Jiaomei's good friend. It turns out that every time Jiaomei said she was going to the library, it was just an excuse!"
I'm such a fool that I haven't realized it until now.
"Hehe, I'm not lying to you." Jiaomei said with a blushing face.
"You little bitch, you're secretly dating behind my back." I laughed and started to play with Jiaomei, leaving Gu Yufan aside. Of course, while Jiaomei and I were playing, I caught a glimpse of Gu Yufan looking at us with interest, and we didn't feel awkward at all.
This early morning, Jiaomei gave me a pink bomb, but it was good news, worth being happy about. Now Jiaomei is a man with a boyfriend, and finally her crazy heart has a place to rest.
"Are you going to bully me, a single dog, all the time in the future? You won't eat lunch with me, go to the library with me, or leave me alone after school? You will devote all your time to Gu Yufan, right? Humph!" I poked the guy who was in sweet first love and was sitting in front of me with my ballpoint pen.
"No, I will be with you often. Besides, if we stick together every second, Ju Chenxi will not be happy. Ju Chenxi and our Fanfan are also good friends."
"Oh, it's Ju Chenxi ." When I heard his name, my heart trembled slightly.
"Hey, Xiaole, I found a strange phenomenon."
"What?" This coquettish girl is full of trouble.
"I noticed that you are not angry now when I mention Ju Chenxi! Well, do you have some secret that you cannot tell others ? Tell me the truth."
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, I didn't." I hurriedly explained, as if Jiaomei had seen through my thoughts at a glance.
"No, no, then why are you blushing? Ahahaha."
"Hmph, how annoying." My face turned red instantly, and I quickly laid down on the table, covered my head, and kept making excuses.
"Okay, okay, I'm just kidding. Look how nervous you are." This guy talked for a long time before finally stopping.
But why am I blushing? Wait, my heart is actually beating really fast!
I opened my hands again and found that my palms were full of sweat.
What's wrong with me?
I couldn't help but lie on the table and start thinking about this question. However, my mind unconsciously emerged the scene of walking back home with Ju Chenxi while enjoying the sunset and eating ice cream cones. Sometimes we talked happily, and sometimes we were silent in tacit understanding. That time seemed to bring me back to the happy days when I was with the young boy.
It’s over, it’s over, Yan Zhile, you’re going crazy !
