Chapter 5 Sweet March three
When people are happy, they always feel that time flies by quickly, just like me now. An Yixuan sends me messages almost every day, asking me to watch him play basketball, inviting me to dinner, and asking me how my homework is going, if there are any exercises I don't know, etc. Although we haven't developed further, this already makes me happy enough.
Sometimes when An Yixuan had other things to do after playing, he would ask Lingdang to accompany me. Lingdang, this little follower, was also happy to follow behind An Yixuan and me. Sometimes I felt that Lingdang was almost bribed by An Yixuan. Because Lingdang's grades were rising rapidly, and An Yixuan always knew my every move.
"You and An Yixuan are so ambiguous, are you together?" In the afternoon, Lingling and I, each holding a cute doll, sat on the playground and chatted. Lingling's big eyes were filled with a malicious smile.
I was eating my favorite and looking at An Yixuan playing basketball on the playground, and said meaningfully: "What a lovely life. Don't think it's so complicated. We are just good friends."
"Ah? Just good friends, but you like him so much, and now it seems he likes you too." Lingling asked a little puzzled.
"There are many kinds of likes. We haven't made any other progress yet, so don't be so gossipy. Also, don't always report my affairs to him, okay? I'm your best friend, I need some privacy too!" I freed up a hand and pinched Lingling's face, "For example, if you like to sleep in, eat snacks, etc., it's embarrassing to tell others. You can tell him how much I love studying and how obedient I am!"
"Wow, that's too fake. I'm just telling the truth! Besides, I'm doing this for you. I'm just a good sister to you, so of course I want you to be happy. I think An Yixuan is a nice person. Look at him, so handsome and with such good grades, he must be very popular with girls! But he is so cold and doesn't approach anyone except you. You are so trustworthy. I hope he will be nice to you and tolerate you, so I told you about your story. And he is also very interested." Lingling said sincerely.
"I know you're doing this for my own good. If it weren't for you, An Yixuan and I wouldn't have such a good relationship. But I know him best. We can't move too fast or we'll scare him." I looked at An Yixuan lovingly as he ran. With his entangled, lukewarm, cold-hearted personality, it was unlikely that he would do anything with me right now.
After spending time with each other in college, I knew that An Yixuan was a person who would take a long-term approach. Even if he liked something, he would not show any enthusiasm at first, but once he decided that it was his, he could be very domineering.
"You seem to know him so well, so what are your plans now?" Lingling asked curiously.
I blinked and said seriously, "Study hard and get into St. John's first."
"Ah? That's it?" Lingling was obviously a little disappointed. "Aren't you guys already doing fine?"
"This is just on the surface. It proves that An Yixuan doesn't hate me, or that he has a little affection for me, a different affection from other girls, but he can't be sure that this is love. I have to enter St. John's first, then I can slowly move to the next step with him, slowly let him see my excellence and persistence, and let him feel my love for him. And we have so much time, we will definitely go on happily this time!"
"What you said is so corny, all about love and affection. It's nothing like the Xizi I know. Also, when I hear you talk, I feel like you two have been together before, but you clearly don't know each other." Lingling looked at me with confusion in her eyes.
"Well, I'm sorry, Lingling, I can't explain it to you, but please believe me, I am still the same Xizi, I am still your best friend, this will never change!" I said, holding Lingling's hand.
"Okay, okay, I get it. No matter what you do, I will support you and help you. You and An Yixuan are simply made for each other and will definitely be together. And you two academic masters together will definitely be a strong combination and will not affect your future studies. I will definitely be able to get into a good university by following you!" Lingling suddenly began to associate, "What do you think, will we become the Three Musketeers in the future?"
"Stop, your ice cream has melted. An Yixuan has finished playing, let's eat together as three of us ." I said to An Yixuan who was cleaning up the court.
"Okay, okay. It's An Yixuan who paid for it, so I might as well take advantage of it!" Lingling happily threw the melted Cornetto away.
An Yixuan walked towards us, his expression still cold and not enthusiastic: "Do you want to have dinner together?" He looked at me and asked softly.
I nodded: "Bring the bell."
"Okay." An Yixuan took the lead and walked in front, "You two have a really good relationship."
"Of course, we have been good friends since kindergarten." Lingling said affectionately, taking my hand.
"Oh." An Yixuan responded softly and did not continue speaking.
Lingdang and I followed him to the cafeteria. He went to get his food while we found a place to sit. Lingdang looked at the busy An Yixuan and said, "He really , but he doesn't smile much. It seems that you were right about taking things slow."
"Haha, he is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Don't be scared by him, he is very enthusiastic when he gets familiar with people." I remembered the way he joked with his acquaintances, and the way he teased Lingling in college. It's so funny when I think about it, but I'm afraid Lingling now wouldn't know what happened back then.
"What are you laughing at?" Lingling asked when she saw me laughing happily.
"It's nothing. I just thought of some happy things." I covered it up casually.
During meals, An Yixuan always picked the dishes I liked for me, which made Lingling envious and complaining. Finally, An Yixuan said, "If you don't like it, you can just not eat with us next time, or find someone to pick the dishes for you."
"Ahhh, you're so annoying. I really won't eat with you guys next time!" Lingling didn't expect An Yixuan to say that. She was so angry that her face turned red. Then she vented her anger on the food and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
When I look at my good sisters and the man I love most, I feel really happy. I hope I can always be happy like this.
After dinner, Lingdang ran away tactfully, leaving An Yixuan to take me back to the old place. Wait a little longer, and when I get admitted to St. John's, I won't have to live this life of climbing over the wall anymore!
"The test paper book you bought last time was not very useful. I reorganized it for you. You can take a look at it when you are free." An Yixuan said calmly, and then took out the exercise book that Mu Yege and I bought before and handed it to me, "Don't listen to those classmates who buy books casually next time." He glared at me.
"Well, we are all classmates, so we should make progress together." Ever since I told him that Mu Yege took me to buy the exercise book, he has shown a bad attitude towards this exercise book and Mu Yege. Fortunately, I haven't told him that Mu Yege is pursuing me. I often avoid Mu Yege recently, and I think he understands what I mean.
"You must remember your own goals and study hard." An Yixuan reached out and hit me on the head lightly. "It's getting late, go back quickly and be careful." An Yixuan patted my shoulder and said.
I smiled and nodded, then clambered over the wall swiftly. I felt that my sports performance would be very good. I even wanted to give myself a thumbs up for the way I clambered over the wall!
