Chapter 5: Failed Confession one
When I got home in the evening, I couldn't hide my joy, but there was a hint of worry in that joy. I sat on the sofa, thinking about the time I spent with Xuan Yixin, and couldn't help but smile.
"Why are you coming home so late?" A man's voice suddenly came into my ears.
I stood up suddenly and looked at Luo Yin who was standing at the bedroom door. I covered my chest and said, "You are going to scare me to death! Why did you speak so suddenly? Why didn't you make any noise before? You didn't even tell me you were coming over."
"Hey, I didn't tell you specifically when I came here before. You have grown up and need privacy, right? Do you think I am disturbing you?" Luo Yin held the door frame, and looked at me with a smile with his big eyes.
I bit my lip, quickly put on a bright smile and walked forward: "Brother Luo Yin, I know you treat me the best."
Luo Yin almost fell down, took a step back and looked at me with a frown: "What do you want to do?"
"Come, come and sit down." I pulled Luo Yin to sit on the sofa. "Luo Yin, you are the person I trust the most. You have always protected me so much. No matter what I need, you will do it for me."
Luo Yin rolled his eyes, then crossed his legs, looked at me leisurely, and said with disdain: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"I want you to help me investigate something." I said with a smile. I knew that with Luo Yin's ability, investigating this matter would not be a problem at all. I told him about Xuan Yixin's scandal in general and asked him to help me investigate the truth.
Luo Yin looked at me with wide eyes, his expression very serious: "Do you suspect that there is another hidden story behind this matter? Leave it to me, I will give you an answer tomorrow. But, Xiaoya, you are quite concerned about Xuan Yixin." The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but the smile was very faint.
I shrugged and pretended to be indifferent and said, "No, I'm just worried that he was cheated." After that, I lowered my head and looked at the ground, feeling a little guilty. I was not only afraid that he would be cheated, but I was even more afraid that I would be cheated! Although I told myself to believe Xuan Yixin, but... the shadow of the family always lingered in my heart.
"Don't worry, it's not like I haven't come into contact with Xuan Yixin before. Although he is not a very good person, he will not lie to you. Since you are worried, I will investigate it carefully. You should rest early. I'm leaving." Luo Yin patted my shoulder. He always understands me so well.
"Luo Yin, thank you." I looked up at him and expressed my gratitude from the bottom of my heart.
"Okay, okay, I know." Luo Yin made an OK gesture to me, then put on his coat handsomely and left.
After Luo Yin left, I was the only one left , and I suddenly felt lonely for no reason. I curled up on the sofa, and I thought of Xuan Yixin again. I wondered what he was doing now? An Shiya, you can't think about him anymore! I took out my notebook and logged into the game interface. Let's play games. When playing games, I can think about nothing, but... those familiar games can't arouse my interest. I fell into a state of anxiety. I wanted to send a message to Xuan Yixin, but I didn't know what to say... Is this feeling something you would have in love?
Just when I was struggling, I heard a message from my phone. I opened it with great anticipation, but my excitement was reduced by half. It turned out that it was not from Xuan Yixin, but from Xuan Ruofeng. He happily told me that he would be back next week. I also said a lot of words to welcome him. Finally, he reminded me to go to bed early. I said that I had insomnia recently. Xuan Ruofeng soon sent me an audio clip, which was a very nice guitar song.
"I played it myself. Doesn't it sound nice? This is a lullaby I composed myself. I always listen to it when I can't sleep. Now listen to it, take a hot bath, drink a glass of hot milk, and then lie on the bed. I guarantee you will fall asleep immediately." Xuan Ruofeng's voice always sounds so enthusiastic.
My mood improved a lot because of him. I obediently took a hot bath, drank hot milk and lay on the bed. The leisurely guitar sound floated in the bedroom. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I was absent-minded the whole next day because I was waiting for Luo Yin and waiting for news from him.
"Xiaoya, are you okay?" Xuan Yixin looked at me worriedly.
"I'm fine." I smiled at him, wondering if he would be angry if he knew I was secretly investigating him.
But I also cared about him. Unconsciously, I had given my heart to him. I hoped that he was innocent and that we could be together well... After school, I quickly took a taxi home and called Luo Yin. Of course, Luo Yin would not miss the opportunity to mock me, saying that I was not paying attention to other things, but was so nervous about this matter. I listened to his teasing patiently, and finally couldn't help but get angry: "Luo Yin, you bastard, if you don't tell me, I will tell my great grandfather that you bullied me!"
"Okay, okay, I checked, there's no problem, Xuan Yixin is indeed single, the rumor is fake, that girl probably doesn't even know Xuan Yixin. You can rest assured now, miss, I'm busy and can't play with you." Luo Yin hung up the phone in a hurry.
Really! He hung up before I even hung up the phone. Too much! However, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. Xuan Yixin is really single. I can continue my game. Hehehehe... Just when I was thinking about how to conquer Xuan Yixin, the system issued a new task to me.
"New task reminder: Confess to Xuan Yixin. 10 points will be added if the confession is successful."
You're going to confess so soon! My heart couldn't help but beat faster. Although we have always had a good relationship, it seems that we are just a little better than ordinary friends. Will Xuan Yixin accept my confession? Countless question marks appeared in my mind, and I was actually a little bit looking forward to it. An Shiya, you have to have some courage! You are so outstanding, how could Xuan Yixin not accept you?
I paced back and forth in my house anxiously. How could I express my feelings? I couldn't just rush over and tell him I like him and let's be together, right? That would be too silly, and it might scare him. How could I express my feelings more naturally? I began to think about the confession scenes in idol dramas.
Give him a book with a love card inside? Give him a cake with a note inside? Or give him a mirror and say the person in the mirror is my boyfriend? All of them seem too cliché and not very feasible.
Should I hint coyly or speak directly? I tossed and turned all night, imagining various scenarios, and finally decided to go with the simplest one. I would cook a meal myself and then take the opportunity to confess my love. There is an old saying that goes, "You can only keep a man's heart if you keep his stomach."
After making up my mind, I started searching for recipes. I decided to make a simple and romantic western meal. However, I patted my head. If Xuan Yixin really only treated me as a good friend, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for me? Should I find a way out for myself? I lay on the bed and thought about it. Finally, I fell asleep. But even in my dreams, I was thinking about confession.
"Xuan Yixin, I like you. Let's go out, okay?" I said shyly, standing in front of a table full of delicious food.
"Ah, Xiaoya, I just treat you as a friend. I have someone else I like." Xuan Yixin looked at me in disbelief.
Wow, this won’t work, it’s a nightmare!
"Xuan Yixin, let's go out and don't say no." I put my hands on my hips and said domineeringly.
"Okay, Xiaoya, I have always liked you." Xuan Yixin hugged me.
Xuan Yixin, do you know that I really like you... I muttered to myself when I woke up, and the sun had already risen high. I stretched and an idea came to me. Although this method is a bit risky, I can still give it a try. Just treat it as a way out for myself. After thinking it through, my mood was still very high.
"Xuan Yixin, are there any activities tonight?" After arriving at school, I looked at Xuan Yixin and asked with a smile.
Xuan Yixin shook his head repeatedly and said with a smile, "No, do you have something to talk to me about?" His eyes seemed to be shining stars.
"Well, I want to treat you to a simple meal. I cooked it myself. We'll just have it at my house. How about it?" I deliberately said it lightly.
"I'm so happy just thinking about being able to eat food made by Xiaoya herself!" Xuan Yixin's expression was a little exaggerated, and he was handsome but also full of cuteness.
My face turned red, and I lowered my head and whispered, "It's a deal, then." He always made me feel at a loss as to what to do and my heart would beat wildly.
