Chapter 5: Failed Confession two
After waiting for a long time until school was over, my heart was about to jump out of my chest. I walked while making a draft in my mind, thinking about how I would confess my feelings later. Xuan Yixin, who had no idea, followed me with a bright smile on her face.
"Xuan Yixin, Xuan Yixin." Suddenly, a hurried female voice came from behind us, and I couldn't help but turn around to look. A girl with a pretty face and a great figure was jogging towards us. Her snow-white cheeks were flushed with a lovely blush, and her black curly hair was flowing in the wind. Her facial features were very delicate, and her oval face gave her a sense of charm. She was wearing a sky blue dress that only reached her knees, revealing her long and thin legs.
"Who are you?" Xuan Yixin asked in confusion, "We don't know each other."
"Classmate Xuan, my name is Ranxi, and I'm your junior." Ranxi stopped in front of us, she stroked her gasping chest, and then reached out to Xuan Yixin.
Xuan Yixin frowned, looked at her with confusion and asked, "What are you doing?"
My originally excited mood became extremely complicated at this moment. Perhaps it was because of the natural sensitivity of women that I felt that the girl named Ranxi in front of me had bad intentions. Such a beautiful girl, with such a nice name, and came here enthusiastically for Xuan Yixin. Could it be that she suddenly cut in line to confess before I did?
"In fact, we have met many times, but Xuan Yixin, do you really have no impression of me?" Ranxi retracted his hand, blinking his watery eyes and staring at Xuan Yixin, his pitiful eyes were full of tears, "Xuan Yixin, you leave a deep impression on me every time."
Xuan Yixin tilted her head and looked at Ranxi carefully. I got angry again for no reason. Have you never seen a beautiful woman? Why are you staring at her so intently?
"I seem to have some impression that we participated in the Aoqi Cup together." Xuan Yixin said in a light tone.
"That's right, not only the Aoqi Cup, but also the English competition, the Chinese studies competition, the Mathematical Olympiad competition... Xuan Yixin, from childhood to adulthood, we have participated in twenty-three competitions together. Every time you are the first and I am the second, and I have always wanted to surpass you. For you, I study hard, for you, I work hard to get into Imperial High School, do you know? I do so many things, not to make others praise me as a top student, but just because of you!" Ranxi became more and more excited as she spoke, her face was as red as the sunset in the sky, her eyes were exceptionally bright, and full of a kind of self-confidence.
"So that's how it is. Congratulations. You're really good, as you always get second place. Ranxi... I see. You are the first in your grade this year. In fact, I'm one year older than you, so you're at a disadvantage compared to me." Xuan Yixin glanced at me, then smiled at Ranxi.
"I have only admired one person since I was a child, and that is you!" Ranxi looked at Xuan Yixin as if no one else was around, and his tone was so firm, "I have always been thinking that if I have a boyfriend, or you have a girlfriend, it must be each other!"
I stared at her with wide eyes. Was I going to be cut off like this? My heart was gurgling with sourness. Even if you are beautiful, so what? Even if you are a top student, so what? Can you confess to someone so domineeringly?
"Isn't that goddess Ranxi? The goddess won first place again. She could have relied on her looks but chose to rely on her strength. It's really beyond our reach."
"Goddess Ranxi is such a top student. She is chatting with Senior Xuan Yixin. They are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. Senior Xuan Yixin is also a top student."
Because it was after school, there were always some students passing by who would look at the three of us, but they were all whispering about Ranxi and Xuan Yixin, and I was standing aside awkwardly like a third party.
"Well, classmate Ranxi, are you overthinking it?" Xuan Yixin smiled helplessly.
"No, Yixin, we are meant to be a couple, we should be together!" Ranxi said confidently, "Let us be together, we are meant to be together."
"Classmate Ranxi , I think you have read too many novels or idol dramas. First of all, love has no rules and cannot be compared. Moreover, when it comes to love, there is no such thing as should or should not! You are really outstanding, but I don’t like you, I’m sorry." Xuan Yixin’s expression became very serious.
Ranxi took a step back and looked at Xuan Yixin in disbelief, then glanced at me again: "Why? I'm not worthy of you? Then what kind do you like?"
"In love, there is nothing that is not worthy. Ranxi, you are very good, you deserve anyone. I don't want you to belittle yourself, but you must understand that you don't have to be together just because you are worthy. Love is sometimes really nonsensical. Maybe the person you like is not as good as you, but you just like him. The girl I like...she doesn't need to be very good, she doesn't need to be very beautiful, as long as I like her, she just standing there can make me feel that the years are beautiful..." Xuan Yixin described the girl in his dreams very softly.
My heart sank so suddenly, his expression was too gentle, he was not assuming a certain girl, but he really liked someone, otherwise he would not describe it so vividly and yearningly, dreamily and happily, but that girl, didn't seem to be me... "You... do you have someone you like?" Ranxi asked tremblingly, her pretty face turned pale at the moment.
"Well... yes, so, I hope you can find your own happiness and forget about first place or second place, or who are the top students or goddesses. How can love be compared?" Xuan Yixin said comfortingly, his smile was sincere.
"I understand...but can you tell me who you like?" Ranxi lowered his head, then quickly raised it again and looked directly at Xuan Yixin.
I felt like my heart was about to jump out of my throat. If Xuan Yixin said it was me... I could feel Ranxi's sidelong glance, and my palms were sweating from nervousness.
"I have waited for the girl I like for a very long time. In my heart, she is unique. I liked her when I first met her. I believe she has also waited for me for a long time. You think I am great, but in my eyes, she is the best. Back then... I simply looked up to her." Xuan Yixin lowered his head, his voice was very soft, and his cheeks were rarely red.
"I understand. You are number one in my world, but in your world, I am not the number one. No matter what, I have tried, and I will not give up. I believe that one day, I will make you look up to me!" Ranxi was not disappointed, but quickly became full of confidence again.
My mood hit rock bottom. Xuan Yixin already had someone she liked in her heart, and that person was not me. I stood aside at a loss, feeling full of contempt for my own self-conceit.
Ranxi turned and ran away without waiting for Xuan Yixin's answer. That's right, a girl as good as her would naturally know how to get away with it, so I saw a hint of appreciation on Xuan Yixin's face. But what about me? What about Xuan Yixin to me? If I fail to confess, can I get away with it like this? Maybe... I'm afraid we can't even be friends anymore.
"Xiaoya, what's wrong with you? I'm so sorry about what happened just now. I didn't expect it." Xuan Yixin looked at me with guilt on her face, "When we get to your house later, let me clean up for you and help you with the dishes."
"No, actually, the person who wants to date you today is someone else." I lowered my head, trying to suppress my disappointment. Fortunately, I still had a plan B. Since the person he liked was not me, it should be that girl. I picked up my phone and quickly dialed a number.
"Who wants to date me?" Xuan Yixin looked at me blankly and asked.
"You'll know soon." I put on a secretive smile, "If... you must thank me when the time comes." I bit my lip, trying to laugh even though I wanted to cry.
"Hello, everyone. Sorry, I'm late." A female voice as gentle as water sounded.
"It's you? Xin Jizi?" Xuan Yixin asked in disbelief.
"I'm not Xin Jizi, I'm Xin Youzi, and I'm Xin Jizi's sister. I know my sister's previous scandal has caused you a lot of trouble, but in fact, I'm the one who really loves you." Xin Youzi smiled shyly, her face blushing, she bent down and bowed deeply, "I really want to thank Xiaoya for giving me this opportunity."
Xin Yuzi blinked at me with her round, doll-like eyes.
"It's okay, you guys go ahead and chat. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." I didn't dare to look at Xuan Yixin's face and ran away quickly.
