Chapter 4 Smell the Sunshine
The reason for liking someone doesn't need to be too complicated. I think I like you just because I smell the scent of sunshine on you, which is warm and comfortable...
——Night Blue
I woke up early when the first ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains.
The sky just turned a cool blue , which reminded me of Ye Lanluo’s oil painting - a field of sunflowers under the blue sky.
Yesterday, I seemed to have made Ye Lanluo angry!
Although Ye Lanluo spoke in a bad tone, I knew he cared about me.
I kept thinking about how to apologize to Ye Lanluo.
Anyone who can draw such beautiful works must have a pure heart, so he shouldn't be so stingy, right?
On the playground, there are students running in sportswear. The flying dust under their feet and their youthful faces form a beautiful picture.
Time passes by little by little.
The classmates gradually appeared on the campus, talking and laughing as they walked towards the teaching building.
I stood in the corridor, watching the figures passing by one after another, but I never saw Ye Lanluo.
Is Ye Lanluo not coming to school today?
Then wouldn't the words of apology that I spent the entire evening pondering have just turned into bubbles?
As the class time was about to end, I took one last desperate glance outside the teaching building, but I felt like I was struck by lightning and stood there stupidly.
It turned out to be Ye Lanluo!
I complained a few words in my heart, but seeing that he was still walking towards me slowly, I took a deep breath and ran towards him.
The corridor was full of students, and I finally managed to get close to Ye Lanluo.
I quietly encouraged myself, then stretched out my hand and shook it hard towards Ye Lanluo.
The magnitude of my movements was so large that it attracted the attention of many students. They all pursed their lips and looked at me with mocking eyes.
But at this moment, I just want to get Ye Lanluo's attention, and I don't care about anything else.
However, Ye Lanluo walked over without looking around, as if he didn't notice me waving at him desperately. His steps were slow and calm, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
how so?
I stood there in disbelief, my hands still frozen in place.
Did he do that on purpose?
Pretending not to see me?
Seeing Ye Lanluo's figure about to disappear from my sight, I was in a hurry and no longer cared about anything. I shouted at the top of my voice: "Ye Lanluo!"
As soon as the words fell, the originally extremely noisy corridor suddenly became quiet.
“Swish!”
Everyone's eyes were on me, and some people pointed at me in surprise.
The ending was still lingering in the air, as if mocking how ridiculous I had just been.
My eyes were fixed on Ye Lanluo, but this guy's reaction was completely beyond my expectations.
Even though my voice was so loud, he didn't even look at me!
Ye Lanluo continued to walk forward without a pause, and did not even look in my direction, as if the name I just called out with all my strength was someone else's...
Is he angry?
I stood there lost.
I must have said something too harsh yesterday.
I gritted my teeth and made up my mind to apologize.
Thinking of this, I ignored everyone’s gazes and ridicule, and ran towards Ye Lanluo with all my strength.
" Ye Lanluo, wait a minute!" I shouted breathlessly to the figure in front of me that was getting farther and farther away.
But this cold-blooded guy Ye Lanluo didn't respond to me at all. He actually walked towards the music classroom.
I quickened my pace and my cheeks became hot from the intense running.
Almost catching up...
I opened my mouth and was about to say something, but found that Ye Lanluo walked into the music classroom without looking back, and then closed the door without hesitation.
The sound of the door closing with a "click" echoed in my ears.
I had just arrived at the door of the music classroom, but was blocked outside the cold door.
What's more, Ye Lanluo actually locked the door!
It seems that he is really angry!
The uneasiness in my heart is growing wildly like seaweed.
I stared blankly at the door that was locked from the inside, and completely forgot all the words of apology I had intended to say.
"Hello...Ye Lanluo..." I cautiously turned the doorknob tentatively.
I don't know what he was doing in there, he didn't respond to me.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
"Can you please open the door?" I softened my voice and knocked on the door gently, but still no response.
Although the class time was almost up, I didn't care about anything else. I was just thinking about what I should do to make Ye Lanluo forgive me.
He should at least listen to my apology...
The music classroom was still quiet and I couldn't even hear him moving around.
I stood outside the door feeling a little aggrieved, and tried to make my voice more sincere: "I was wrong about what happened yesterday, and what I said was too much... I hope you don't mind... I know you care about me, and I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that. Please don't be angry, okay?"
no respond.
"Ye Lanluo...I'm sorry..."
It was still quiet all around.
"Ye Lanluo, please open the door..."
Ye Lanluo still didn't give me an answer, nor did he open the door.
My guilty feeling gradually turned into anxiety and anger. I twisted the doorknob fiercely and yelled at the person inside without any image: "Hey! Ye Lanluo! If you don't open the door, I will be angry!"
"Ye Lanluo, there's a beautiful lady looking for you! Open the door quickly!"
"Ye Lanluo... open the door..."
I tried every possible way, but still couldn't make the person inside move at all. It was as if Ye Lanluo disappeared through the door out of thin air.
hateful!
Time passed slowly, and my last bit of patience was gone. I stared at the door in front of me angrily and started to complain loudly: "Ye Lanluo! You damned fellow! You are so stingy! I just said a few words to you, but you are so mean, aren't you? You stingy fellow!"
But what I didn't expect was that the door, which hadn't opened no matter what I did before, actually creaked and slowly opened...
Ye Lanluo stood in front of me with a smile. Although it was a very faint smile, it still made me feel brightened.
He leaned lazily against the door: "I never said I was generous."
Ye Lanluo actually showed such a smile...
Does this mean he is no longer mad at me?
I ignored Ye Lanluo's teasing and walked straight into the music classroom. I didn't want to be locked out again.
I suddenly recalled what I had said and done just now to get him to open the door. It was so embarrassing...
There is a pure white tripod piano in the music classroom. It has been wiped clean and exudes a luxurious glow under the golden sunlight.
Ye Lanluo walked slowly to the piano, sat down comfortably, just looked at me, and didn't say anything.
I remembered the purpose of coming here, and quickly put on a formal expression and said seriously: "About what happened yesterday, I'm sorry..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ye Lanluo's gesture.
He shook his head, indicating that I didn't need to continue.
"Have you forgiven me, then?" I continued to ask stubbornly.
Ye Lanluo still had that smile on his face: "Did I say I was angry?"
Not angry?
I glanced at Ye Lanluo resentfully and muttered softly, "If you're not angry, why don't you open the door for me..."
Ye Lanluo smiled softly and did not answer.
"Did you see my painting yesterday?"
I was stunned for a moment, then revealed an expression of amazement: "I saw it, it's really beautiful, especially the large field of sunflowers."
"Yeah." Ye Lanluo nodded slightly, as if she was satisfied with the answer. "Do you like it?"
"I like it very much!" Hearing this, I was as excited as if I had found a soulmate. "I am very knowledgeable about many flowers, especially sunflowers. I like them very much..."
"I know..." Ye Lanluo said softly without looking at me.
Know?
Does he know that I like sunflowers?
“Ding Ling Ling…”
My reverie came to an abrupt end when the school bell rang.
He curled his lips in amusement and said calmly, "Xia Zimu, you are late."
I grumbled helplessly, "It's all because of you! Who told you to come so late? Couldn't you have come earlier?"
I was just talking to myself and didn't expect to get an answer from Ye Lanluo, but I didn't expect him to nod and agree readily. He even glanced at me with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll come earlier next time."
My face suddenly became hot, and I could only pretend to be natural and casually replied: "Oh, I'll leave first, otherwise I will be punished."
After saying that, I hurriedly ran out of the music classroom.
When I cautiously returned to the classroom, all the classmates' eyes fell on me.
The teacher looked a little unhappy, but he just lectured me a few words and didn't punish me. He let me go back to my seat.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Xiaole took advantage of the teacher's inattention and gently touched my arm, asking with concern, "Just now I saw you calling Ye Lanluo's name and running in the direction he went."
“Um… I just…” I didn’t know how to answer, my cheeks were still burning, and many classmates were staring at me, as if they wanted to know the answer. I could only stammer, “I just had something important to ask him, just now… maybe he didn’t hear me.”
After saying that, I smiled unnaturally and quickly pretended to be listening to the class carefully.
After a difficult class, when the bell rang, I realized that the nightmare had begun.
The school seemed to be filled with gossip, and the news that I was pulled away from the exhibition hall by Ye Lanluo yesterday was widely circulated.
Many classmates connected this incident with the fact that I had chased Ye Lanluo so far away that morning, and made a big fuss about it. Now wherever I go, I can hear people whispering about it.
how so……
I lay on the table helplessly, trying to block my ears tightly.
At the classroom window, several female classmates from other classes looked at me strangely.
Although I blocked my ears, I could still hear their conversation clearly.
"Does she always pester Ye Lanluo? Tsk, really..."
"It's not necessarily that she is pestering Ye Lanluo. I heard that at the art exhibition yesterday, Ye Lanluo was..."
"There must be some special reason for Lan Luo!" Someone immediately retorted unconvincedly, "Otherwise why would he want to get close to a girl like that!"
"Yes, he is not good-looking, and I heard that he does not have a particularly outstanding family background."
"She is very confident in herself!"
…
The voices were getting louder and louder. I curled up in my seat feeling very aggrieved and did not stand up to refute them.
Indeed... it's easy for people to misunderstand us when we look like that, right?
Xiaole sat next to me somewhat helplessly, glared at those girls fiercely, and then pushed my shoulder.
"Zi Mu?" Xiao Le's voice was light and fluttery. "I want to ask you a question."
"What?" I raised my head listlessly.
Xiaole's expression became more mysterious. She looked around and asked, "Do you like Ye Lanluo or Gu Yichen?"
Well?
I never expected Xiaole to ask such a question, and I was unable to react for a moment.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, she continued to ask carefully: "I remember... you like Gu Yichen, do you have feelings for Ye Lanluo too?"
How could I fall in love with Ye Lanluo?
Besides...he already has someone he likes .
But why is my heart beating so fast?
I glared at Xiaole angrily: "Stop talking nonsense!"
Suddenly, Xiaole seemed to remember something, put his hands on his waist, and said, "Xia Zimu, you still haven't told me the truth. How did you and Ye Lanluo know each other?"
I pulled and looked at her helplessly: "Can't you lower your voice a little bit? I'm telling you."
Xiaole then smiled with satisfaction, leaned over and looked like he was listening to a story.
"Before school started, my brooch fell off and was picked up by Ye Lanluo."
I described the first time I met Ye Lanluo as briefly as possible, but Xiaole looked at me with his mouth wide open in disbelief: "That's it?"
I shrugged helplessly: "What else do you want..."
Xiaole didn't seem to believe what I said. He looked at me for a while and said slowly, "What kind of person do you think Ye Lanluo is?"
"Well... Ye Lanluo should be a very warm-hearted person. Although his appearance makes people feel distant, he is actually very easy to get along with. Sometimes , Ye Lanluo is like a lonely child, making people want to take care of him..."
I carefully recalled every moment I had with Ye Lanluo, and a smile appeared on my face involuntarily. I suddenly realized that Ye Lanluo seemed to have always taken good care of me...
But, is this all because I’m similar to the girl he likes?
Thinking of this, I felt a little lost.
"Zimu, why do I feel that the person you like is Ye Lanluo?" Xiaole looked at me and asked softly.
I didn't know how to answer Xiaole's question, so I had to tell her the truth: "Ye Lanluo has someone he likes."
Xiaole curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "So what? Zimu, as long as you like him, just chase him bravely. Don't be afraid, I support you! How about this, I will be your military advisor, help you with strategies, and snatch him away..."
Xiaole was talking excitedly to herself, but I ignored her and fell into deep thought.
Night Blue, Gu Yichen.
Every time I see these two people, I have a strange feeling, as if they are very familiar, yet very strange.
Gu Yichen is a boy I knew when I was a child, so it is reasonable to have such a feeling. But what about the familiarity with Ye Lanluo?
I spent the whole morning listening to my classmates' discussions, and walked out of the classroom with a gloomy face and headed towards the cafeteria.
The entire corridor was empty, and the students had already flocked to the cafeteria in groups.
I held the lunch box in my hands somewhat dazedly, without any appetite at all.
"Do you like Ye Lanluo or Gu Yichen?"
Xiaole's voice kept echoing in my mind, making me unable to find peace.
Maybe... I just believe in that feeling.
Facing the bright sunshine in front of me, I rubbed my eyes a little uncomfortably and planned to continue walking towards the cafeteria. When I turned around inadvertently, I found a slender figure walking towards me.
A pink dress, long black hair, a delicate face, and a disdainful and cold expression.
It’s Su Xiyu.
I never expected her to appear in front of me. After the last eavesdropping incident, I have been trying not to have too much contact with her, and when we meet, we don't say hello to each other.
I was planning to pass by her, but she grabbed my arm.
She used so much force that her nails dug deep into my arm.
I endured the pain and didn't make a sound, but just took a breath.
What is she going to do?
I frowned slightly and looked at her face, which was as delicate as a rose.
But I don't know when, a few classmates appeared behind her, and they were staring at me with the same sharp eyes.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" I asked politely in order to avoid any conflict.
"Xia Zimu." Su Xiyu's voice was cold, as if she didn't want to talk to me. "No one is here during lunch break. Please help me get the equipment from the lab. I don't have enough staff."
"Oh..." Although she spoke to me in a commanding tone, I didn't take it too seriously.
I have no appetite anyway, so it's always good to help others.
Thinking of this, I readily agreed.
The footsteps of several people echoed in the empty corridor. No one spoke. The atmosphere was extremely cold. I followed them silently.
When we arrived at the laboratory, Su Xiyu gently pushed open the door and motioned for me to go in.
I reached out and pointed at the tip of my nose.
Am I the only one going in?
Just as I was about to ask this question, I found that the expression on Su Xiyu's face had become a little impatient. I could only shrug helplessly, take a step forward, and walk towards the laboratory.
However, when I stepped into the laboratory, Su Xiyu behind me actually smiled with a look of success.
She stared at me with even more disdain, then quickly reached out and slammed the door shut.
"boom--"
I turned around in horror, and as the sound came, I saw Su Xiyu's face gradually disappear behind the door.
With a "pop" sound.
The door was locked from the outside.
I stood there blankly, listening to the footsteps outside gradually fading away.
It turns out that I was fooled!
I reached out and touched the cold door.
But what exactly is the reason that makes Su Xiyu hate me so much?
The laboratory was much darker than other rooms . I pulled open all the curtains and looked towards the playground, only to discover in despair that because it was lunch time, there was no one on the playground, and no one would come to the laboratory to open the door and let me out.
Then the only way is to wait here.
I sighed softly, found a clean seat and sat down, feeling drowsy.
Sunlight and jumping dust filled the quiet room.
Fatigue swept through my whole body and I could no longer bear it. I leaned back in the chair and dozed off, hoping that someone would rescue me.
“Bang!”
Just when I was about to fall asleep, a strange sound suddenly came.
I opened my eyes and listened carefully.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The sound became more and more urgent, and I jumped up from my seat with a start, and then I found someone knocking on the door. I didn't expect my luck to be so good, someone had already found me after a short time?
Thinking of this, I hurried to the door, intending to see who my lucky god was.
When I looked out the window and saw that handsome and familiar face, I was stunned and forgot to say anything.
It's Ye Lanluo.
His normally calm face now looked a little anxious. When he saw me in a daze, he continued to knock on the door and asked, "Xia Zimu, are you okay?"
Such a simple sentence made my heart tremble violently.
When I was in trouble, the person I met was Ye Lanluo?
Why is it that whenever I encounter something difficult to solve, Ye Lanluo always appears in front of me like Superman?
I nodded with a sob and smiled to tell him that I was fine.
After seeing my smile, he seemed to be visibly relieved, and then instructed : "Wait for me here, don't worry, I will find a way to open the door."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Worry……
I curled the corners of my mouth.
For some reason, after hearing what Ye Lanluo said, my irritability and grievance completely disappeared.
He is such an amazing person!
Just like those precious medicines that can cure diseases.
After listening to his advice, I was no longer anxious. I sat obediently in my original place and stared at the scenery outside the window.
“Squeak…”
Suddenly, there was a piercing noise coming from the radio in the laboratory .
I looked up in surprise, thinking it had broken down, and then suddenly I heard a familiar voice on the radio.
"I'm Ye Lanluo. I need to go to the lab to get something. Who can open the door?"
It turned out to be Ye Lanluo!
It looks like I should be able to get out soon.
Sure enough, five minutes later, I heard the sound of a lock being unlocked.
I couldn't wait to run to the door, only to find that a strange girl opened the door.
The girl looked at me in surprise: "Why are you here?"
Isn’t Ye Lanluo here?
I looked around feeling a little lost.
I originally thought that the person I would see the moment I opened the door would be him.
The entire floor was empty, with only the sound of my own footsteps echoing.
Where did Ye Lanluo go?
The campus is so big, it’s not easy to find him.
But no matter what, he was the one who rescued me from this place, and I must find him and thank him in person.
Just when I was in a trance, a pleasant piano sound came from the radio in the corridor.
I stopped and listened carefully.
The breeze gently brushed my cheeks and lifted my hair.
I was listening to the music in a trance. It was a very famous piano piece that I loved when I was a child, "Autumn Whispers" by Richard Clayderman.
Through the sunlight, I seem to see those beautiful notes jumping and dancing before my eyes, which is refreshing.
The image that came to my mind was the white tripod piano that I saw in the music classroom this morning.
…
The sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the music classroom, and large patches of dazzling colors were sprinkled on the piano, making it extremely dazzling.
The person sitting on the piano chair was Ye Lanluo, who had just rescued me from the laboratory.
There was a smile on his lips, his slender fingers danced skillfully on the black and white keys, and his thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
…
Imagining him like this, my brain seemed to be hit by something, and strange feelings and memories of being in that garden came flooding back.
I carefully experienced this feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar, hoping to trace it back to its source.
Why?
Isn’t Gu Yichen the handsome boy?
But why does Ye Lanluo often give me this feeling?
The music is still in the air.
I walked lightly towards the school radio station.
When I arrived outside the radio station, the piano music was coming to an end.
Sitting in the studio, Ye Lanluo held his chin with one hand, a smile on his face, and seemed to be completely immersed in the piano music.
His smile gradually disappeared from his face as the song ended, and he returned to his usual expressionless look. But for some reason, at this moment I actually saw a hint of warmth in his expression that made me linger.
He turned his head and just looked at me quietly.
"Do you like listening to piano music? Can you play the piano?" In order to avoid embarrassment between us again, I casually brought up a topic.
But this guy didn't seem to understand my intentions and just nodded stiffly.
"Uh, thank you." Thinking of what happened just now, I hurriedly thanked him. "To express my gratitude, how about I treat you to a meal?"
I smiled brightly and extended the invitation.
Ye Lanluo's expression changed slightly. He looked at me with a smile on his face. He neither nodded nor shook his head, nor did he give me an answer.
I took a few steps forward reluctantly.
Does he accept or reject?
Many times I can't guess what he is thinking. Xiaole is right, he is really a very mysterious boy.
"How about going to lunch?"
I repeated it again patiently.
Ye Lanluo finally gave me an answer.
But this is not the answer I want.
He shook his head firmly, and then said two words lightly: "No need."
My smile froze on my face instantly.
He actually rejected me so decisively?
"You can't refuse!" I rejected his answer with a little anger, "I just want to express my gratitude to you, just to have a meal..." I paused, took two steps forward, and continued, "Let's go, you can choose whatever you want to eat!"
But no matter how I threatened or tempted him, he wouldn't change his mind.
I was helpless and couldn't think of any good way to make him agree, so I had to extend my "devil's hand" to him -
I rushed forward and grabbed his arm. Although I didn't use much force, it was enough to prevent him from breaking free.
"You must go!" I shook his arm triumphantly, "This time you ..."
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere seemed to become a little weird.
I clearly saw the change in Ye Lanluo's facial expression. He was originally expressionless, but now he frowned as if it was a conditioned reflex, and his body seemed to become stiff.
He looked at me with a strange look.
What's wrong?
I didn't understand why he was like this until I noticed that my hands were tightly holding his arm.
I remember Xiaole said that Ye Lanluo hated being touched by others...
I must have been too abrupt in doing this.
I quickly let go of my hand and took two steps back in panic.
Ye Lanluo stood there quietly, but I could see that when my hand left his arm, he was no longer as stiff as before and became much more natural.
Damn it! How could I have forgotten such an important point!
Our relationship has just eased a little!
Will he be angry?
I mustered up the courage to raise my head and stared into his eyes. His dark eyes flashed with a warm look like the sun, which gradually made my originally worried mood turn into relief.
"Ye Lanluo..." I said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I know you don't like to be touched by others..."
Ye Lanluo looked at me, with an almost imperceptible strange light flashing in his eyes.
I continued to stare at him quietly and found that his eyes were so deep, as if they were hiding countless secrets that I didn't know.
Such eyes, with a slightly lonely look, reminded me again of the handsome boy in the garden. His lonely appearance in the cool night breeze made me feel distressed.
Maybe that boy, like Ye Lanluo, also has a secret that he cannot tell but that he cannot bear?
Suddenly, Ye Lanluo, who was originally looking at me, turned his head, as if avoiding my sight.
He was silent for a long time, and then he said to me casually, "Let's go eat."
Then he turned around and walked silently out of the radio station.
The breeze from the window lifted his beautiful black hair.
I looked at his figure , then suddenly I came to my senses and an uncontrollable smile appeared on my face.
I took a step forward and followed closely behind him.
Although he didn't say much along the way, he would give me answers no matter what questions I asked, and he no longer remained silent.
When we arrived at the school cafeteria, it was peak meal time.
But when Ye Lanluo and I both stepped into the cafeteria, I realized that I had forgotten something crucial.
Clearly, gossip about Ye Lanluo and I was everywhere this morning , yet we actually appeared together in public in a dignified manner!
As I expected, the originally noisy cafeteria became quiet the moment we stepped in.
Everyone's eyes fell on us at the same time, with a unified look of surprise.
Ye Lanluo's eyes swept over everyone calmly, then he turned around and told me lightly: "Go find a seat first, what do you want to eat?"
I looked at him speechlessly, but I could only do as he said.
Is he short-sighted? How could he ignore all the strange looks around him?
I finally found a relatively quiet corner where I could avoid being followed by some people.
Not long after, Ye Lanluo came over with two servings of food.
The whispers also reached my ears.
"They appear together again!"
"Did Ye Lanluo help her get food? Are they already dating?"
"No!"
"We are eating together, look!"
The discussions reached my ears clearly, and I regretted my decision to invite him to the cafeteria for dinner. I could only mutter "thank you" in a low voice and concentrate on "attacking" the food.
I had no appetite to begin with, and this time I really understood what it meant to "have no taste for food."
I sighed softly, raised my head, and quietly looked at Ye Lanluo in front of me.
It's strange, why can he take it so calmly and so easily?
I tried to ignore all the looks and comments like him, but my ears and eyes kept receiving these annoying signals.
Suddenly, I noticed Gu Yichen who was also staring at us not far away.
I actually encountered it here...
I suddenly felt overwhelmed and my eyes involuntarily fell on him.
We just stared at each other strangely from a distance.
Ye Lanluo noticed my gaze, turned his head slightly, and also found Gu Yichen.
The chopsticks in Ye Lanluo's hand paused in mid-air. He retracted his gaze and said softly, "Are you looking at him?"
Well!
When I came to my senses after hearing these words, I felt as if I was thrown into a fire, my cheeks became hot, but I didn't know how to respond.
I unconsciously glanced in Gu Yichen's direction again.
Why did he look at me differently than usual ? With an emotion I couldn't describe.
Ye Lanluo's voice once again reached my ears: "Xia Zimu, why do you like Gu Yichen?"
His tone was more serious and solemn than ever before.
I put down the chopsticks in my hand unconsciously and stood there in a daze.
Love at first sight?
No, love at first sight doesn't feel like this.
So, love grows over time?
We have only had contact a few times, so how could we fall in love with each other over time?
Thinking of this, my whole body became stiff.
Why on earth do I like Gu Yichen?
Various answers flashed through my mind, but none of them satisfied me.
I smiled sheepishly: "Actually, I don't know either."
Ye Lanluo didn't say anything else. He lowered his head and began to eat in silence.
I was in a state of confusion. I clenched my teeth and finally asked the question in my heart: "Ye Lanluo, why do you like that girl?"
Ye Lanluo put down the chopsticks in his hand and turned his eyes to me. He looked at me and gradually revealed a faint smile, as if he saw the girl in his memory through me.
"When I was the most lonely and sad, she made me smell the scent of sunshine and felt very warm."
The smell of sunshine...
That girl must be lively and sunny.
I suddenly became very curious about what kind of girl Ye Lanluo likes.
"Ye Lanluo, that girl..." I carefully observed Ye Lanluo's expression. After all, it's not good to ask about other people's private affairs. However, before I finished speaking, I was interrupted by Ye Lanluo's sad voice.
"She has someone she likes."
Ye Lanluo’s answer surprised me, and I could clearly feel his loss.
When a quiet boy like Ye Lanluo likes a girl, he must keep her in his heart silently, right?
