Chapter 5: Failed Confession Four
I was caught in an unprecedented busyness. Classes and dance practice became my daily routine. In order to get the bonus for the outstanding program, I practiced day and night, and even stopped playing my favorite games for a long time. Hard work pays off. My dance is becoming more and more mature, and my body is becoming more and more flexible. Looking at myself in the mirror, I can't help but praise that I am getting closer and closer to the image of a goddess.
"Well, very good, this move is good." Xuan Ruofeng helped me correct my movements very seriously. He has been rehearsing with me every day recently.
"I think this move is good, but my waist hurts." I rubbed my waist and stuck out my tongue.
"This waist-bending movement can really highlight the femininity of a girl, just like cherry blossoms falling. It's very beautiful if done well." Xuan Ruofeng showed me the draft, "Look, it's beautiful, isn't it?"
I looked at the dance sketch he had drawn, with a girl in pink dancing lithely, "You drew it so beautifully, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to dance like this."
"This is just a sample. Don't worry. It will be great if you can achieve 70 to 80 percent of the similarity." Xuan Ruofeng patted my shoulder to encourage me. "Come on, I'm counting on you!"
"I'm hungry." I said while rubbing my stomach. In order to be lighter, I even ate less.
"Hey, I prepared some banana oatmeal porridge for you. It's in a thermos. It's still hot." Xuan Ruofeng produced a blue thermos and handed it to me like a magician.
"Xuan is such a considerate planner!" Xuan Ruofeng's kindness to me caused some of my classmates who were rehearsing nearby to make jokes. They imitated the two of us in an exaggerated manner.
"Go away, get out of here. He's my good friend. You can just joke around here, but if this gets out, I'll give you a good beating!" Xuan Ruofeng deliberately put on a stern face and lectured.
"Everyone has worked hard, let's eat together, I also brought snacks! Xuan Ruofeng is my good buddy, please stop talking nonsense!" I took out snacks from my bag and shared them with everyone, while also clarifying that I actually really like the feeling of everyone playing and fighting together.
It was exciting to see a group of people working together for a party, and I also got to know a lot of good friends.
I got home early today, so I took a milk bath as Xuan Ruofeng told me, and then rested comfortably on the bed. I feel like I've been so busy lately that I'm almost out of touch with the world, so I took this opportunity to check out my Moments.
It turns out that so many things have happened in the school recently. I read the messages one by one, and suddenly, one of them made me exclaim.
"No way? Ruofeng wants to leave?"
I sat up from the bed and read the message carefully. Xuan Ruofeng will officially go to Australia to study after the Cherry Blossom Festival? This is too sudden. He has only been back for a few days and he is going abroad to study again?
I quickly called Xuan Ruofeng: "Ruofeng, you are going to study in Australia? Why is it so sudden? Why didn't you tell me about it?"
Xuan Ruofeng hesitated for a moment, and then I felt that he had changed to a quiet environment, and then he smiled and answered me: "It is quite sudden, but... my family thinks that this is better for my studies and future, and my professor in Australia has always hoped that I would go back."
"But you've only been back for a few days. Will your parents and family be willing to let you go?" I asked a little reluctantly. I finally have a good friend who I can talk to so well, and I really don't want him to leave so soon.
"Actually, this idea was proposed by my cousin, and my parents also agreed. Besides, they also have plans to go abroad, I just left a little earlier."
"What, your cousin's suggestion? That's Xuan Yixin. Why did he suggest that you go to Australia for no reason?" I said indignantly. In fact, my dissatisfaction with Xuan Yixin has been accumulating for a long time, but I just haven't found a chance to vent it.
Xuan Ruofeng's tone was still very relaxed: "It's not without reason. In fact, our family is already abroad. It's just that my cousin and I felt that we had to receive domestic education, so we went to school in China. It's normal to go abroad now. Why are you so excited? Are you reluctant to leave me?"
"Yes, of course I can't bear to let you go. You are my good friend and buddy. If you leave, there will be no one to play with me in the future." I pouted and said in a resentful tone.
"Haha, don't worry about that. Your cousin will definitely accompany you well."
"Who said that……"
Xuan Yixin hasn't contacted me for a long time. I feel angry when I think of him. I don't know if he is being cold to me on purpose or if he is angry. But I haven't offended him or done anything to make him angry.
"Xiao Ya, you should go to bed early. I have something to do here, so I won't chat with you for now." Xuan Ruofeng suddenly said in a low voice.
"Okay, good night." I hung up the phone disappointedly.
My good mood fell into a low ebb because of this incident, and I basically couldn't sleep all night. When I woke up in the morning and looked at my dark circles in the mirror, I had to use concealer to cover them up, and then put on a light makeup, and then I felt that my complexion was much better.
When I reached the gate of Imperial College, I stopped and took a deep breath. When I opened my eyes, I saw Xuan Yixin not far from me. He was wearing a dark blue school uniform, standing tall and handsome at the school gate. He still looked like a prince. I blurted out without thinking, "Xuan Yixin, stop right there!"
Xuan Yixin immediately stopped and turned to look at me. His eyes and brows looked haggard, as if he hadn't had a good rest for a long time.
"What's wrong?" He stared at me.
"Of course, why did you ask Ruofeng to study abroad?" I wanted to bite off my tongue as soon as I asked this question. I obviously didn't want to say this. I obviously wanted to ask him if he didn't sleep well. Why did the words change when they came to my lips?
Xuan Yixin raised his eyebrows, and his pale pink lips were pursed into a line. Then he raised the corner of his mouth with a faint smile and asked, "What's wrong? Can't he go abroad to study? Can't I care about my brother's affairs?"
"But Imperial College is great too, why does he have to study abroad? He just finished his time as an exchange student."
I lowered my head and looked at my toes, mumbling to myself, feeling an inexplicable impatience. I couldn't say what I wanted to say, and I felt wronged that he hadn't taken the initiative to contact me for so long.
"It seems that our family affairs do not need outsiders to interfere, or are you reluctant to part with my brother?" Xuan Yixin said calmly, but his words sounded particularly harsh in my ears.
My face suddenly turned red , as if it was burning. At this time, people were coming and going on the campus.
I looked up at him angrily and said, "As his good friend, I care about him too! How am I an outsider? Why don't you say that you are the tyrant?"
"You are not an outsider, so I am an outsider. You call him Ruofeng so affectionately. Can't you bear to leave him? Okay, he won't study abroad, so I will go abroad to study, okay?" Xuan Yixin looked at me with a frown, his voice was loud, and there seemed to be fire in his eyes as black as ink jade.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can you be intimate? Can't friends call each other by nicknames?" I was getting angry and refused to give in.
"Okay, I know why you are so angry. After all, it's all because of Xuan Ruofeng. I'm going to apply for studying abroad now. I'm leaving, but he won't leave. He should just stay here." Xuan Yixin looked at me angrily and yelled, then left like a gust of wind.
I looked at his departing back with grievance. I clearly didn't want to argue, so why was he so angry? I stomped my feet and walked into the campus helplessly.
