Chapter 5: The Seabed Where Time Falls 1

We are like fish trapped in the deep sea. You can't see my tears, I can't hear your call, and the "I love you" that I didn't say out loud is also buried deep in the sea, never to be seen again.

The next morning, when Li Ziye walked into the classroom, she saw an extra bottle of drink on her desk. She knew that it was bought by Bai Yuwang.
Recently, Bai Yuwang's feelings for her have become more and more obvious. He would bring her breakfast or buy her drinks from time to time, and even bring her a copy of the reference materials that the teacher asked her to buy. Li Ziye didn't think much about it at first, but over time, she found that Bai Yuwang really treated her as more than just a friend.
Originally, everyone in the class thought that Bai Yuwang only approached Li Ziye because she was difficult to approach and felt that she was special, but they didn't expect that he would actually fall in love with her. Many girls in the class were talking about Bai Yuwang behind his back, saying that Bai Yuwang had such a good appearance and brains, but his vision was really not that good.
But Bai Yuwang didn't care what those people said, he just wanted to pursue Li Ziye.
He felt that he could see the soft heart under her hard shell. The colder she was and the more she rejected everything around her, the more it showed her fear. He felt that she must have a lot of difficulties in her heart, but he was confident that he could tear down the wall in her heart and get into her heart.
Perhaps Bai Yuwang's idea was not wrong. Li Ziye did keep a distance from others because he wanted to protect himself. However, Bai Yuwang guessed wrongly that he would never be the one who could walk into her heart.
Ye Xiang has Luo Yun in his heart, while Li Ziye only has Ye Xiang in his heart.
However, Bai Yuwang had not thought of this and thought that he had not tried hard enough to impress Li Ziye. In the end, it developed to the point that whenever he saw what kind of pen she used, he would buy her a whole set of that kind of pen in different colors. He would also buy a bunch of snacks she liked and put them on her desk, not allowing her to refuse.
If this continues, Li Ziye really doesn't know how many things Bai Yuwang will do to distress her. She can only warn him: "Don't give me anything anymore. I really don't need it."
"I just bought it because I wanted to. It's your business whether you use it or not." Bai Yuwang has his own logic, which always leaves Li Ziye unable to find any reason to refute.
Finally, Li Ziye had to play his trump card: "I already have someone I like, so don't waste your energy."
After saying this, Bai Yuwang seemed to be stunned. He tried to digest it for a while, and then said as if it didn't matter: "So what, I just treat you as a friend... But who do you like?"
Li Ziye just said: "It's not you anyway."
Hearing this answer, Bai Yuwang couldn't recover for a long time, his eyes were full of pain, and then he could only smile bitterly: "Okay, I didn't say it was me, I just want to ask if it can be anyone?"
Li Ziye sighed and said calmly, "Don't be so nice to me anymore. It's not worth it."
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's worth it or not." Bai Yuwang left this sentence and turned away . Li Ziye could see his shoulders trembling slightly, not sure whether it was because of anger or sadness.
For a long time, Bai Yuwang's optimistic personality was well known. It seemed that every time he was seen, he was in a good mood, so everyone liked to be close to him. However, perhaps Li Ziye was a disaster in his life, destined to bring him harm.
But sometimes, once you fall in love with someone, you will never look back, even if you know you are like a moth flying into a flame.
Li Ziye knew that she had no right to say anything about Bai Yuwang, because she herself was just as foolishly fond of Ye Xiang. It was just that Ye Xiang seemed to be more cruel to her. He clearly didn't like her, but he would provoke her from time to time, making her have illusions, and from time to time she would have to taste the pain of having her illusions shattered.
Li Ziye discovered that something was wrong with Meng Xiazi because every time Bai Yuwang tried to talk to him, Meng Xiazi would remain silent, sometimes even staring at the things Bai Yuwang gave her for a long time. When Li Ziye talked to her, she would often need a long time to come back to her senses.
Li Ziye thought about what Meng Xiazi had said to her in the bathroom before, and she seemed to understand Meng Xiazi's thoughts a little bit - she liked Bai Yuwang. Now Bai Yuwang was just short of confessing his love to Li Ziye, and almost everyone in the class knew that he liked Li Ziye , so this became a thorn in Meng Xiazi's heart.
But Li Ziye had no choice. She also wanted Bai Yuwang to stop doing those boring things, but Bai Yuwang seemed to not understand what people said and insisted on doing his own thing.
But she seemed to have a premonition that Meng Xiazi, who was becoming increasingly silent towards her, might really become more and more unfamiliar to her, and finally return to the state of strangers.
Although she didn't want to do this, she didn't know what to do.
Li Ziye hadn't looked for Ye Xiang for a long time. In fact, she was really happy when he saved her last time. The pride she had accumulated almost collapsed. But she knew she couldn't be so spineless. Although he treated her like this, and although she thought clearly in her heart, she knew that she still liked him, but she didn't have the courage to get close to him.
When she stopped provoking him, he would often appear in front of her. During the break, after school, or when she was called to the office by the teacher, she would always see him.
She always tried to look away and pretended not to see him. She had to be more courageous, otherwise she would look down on herself!
When Ye Xiang came to their class to find the sports committee member to help the teacher organize a sports meeting, Bai Yuwang was forcing a bottle of drink into Li Ziye's hand: "Li Ziye, this is ready-made, it's faster than going out to buy it yourself, don't give it back to me, I can't drink it anyway."
In fact, Li Ziye didn't know what Bai Yuwang was thinking. She had already made it clear that she had someone she liked, and she also said such hurtful words. But Bai Yuwang seemed to not understand a word. After that day, he returned to his old self and cared about her in various ways.
She was really fed up with it, but she didn't want to get into a fight, so Li Ziye had no choice but to use the excuse of going to the bathroom to avoid Bai Yuwang.
Under the podium, Ye Xiang was talking to the sports committee member with a cold face. Even the big sports committee member lost his aura in front of him, and his voice became a little weaker.
Li Ziye thought about it, stopped, turned around and chose to go out through the back door.
She was really afraid of Ye Xiang. Every time he appeared, she would feel uneasy. Her heartbeat was like a drum, fast and fierce, and her breathing would become disordered.
She didn't know that Ye Xiang was staring at her back with the anger in his eyes that could almost burn her to ashes. He even accidentally crushed the registration form for the sports event.
The sports committee member looked at him with some fear. If one didn't know, one would really think that Ye Xiang came to their class to cause trouble and quarrel: "Student Ye... well, if you keep crumpling the form, you won't be able to fill it out..."
Ye Xiang threw the paper ball directly to the physical education committee member and left a sentence: "Each class must fill its quota." Then he turned and walked out of the classroom, his face as dark as Bao Gong.
After he left, the sports committee member patted and looked relieved: "I've heard that Ye Xiang from Class 3 is not easy to mess with. He really is like someone who has eaten dynamite. It's so scary! He was fine when he came in just now..."
Then one girl couldn't help but sigh: "What's so scary, that's called personality, don't you think it's more handsome this way?"
"Haha, what are you girls thinking about?" The boys collectively disagreed with what the girls said.
When Li Ziye came back from the toilet, she found Bai Yuwang flipping through her textbook... She was shocked because when she was bored, she had written Ye Xiang's name on many notes and put them in her textbooks. Usually no one would flip through her book, so she didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Bai Yuwang discovered it, and Bai Yuwang understood everything at once.
When she walked over, Bai Yuwang asked her with trembling hands: "Do you like him?"
Li Ziye did not deny it. He just snatched the note and stuffed it back into his textbook, closing it tightly. "So what if I like him? It's none of your business."
Bai Yuwang seemed very angry, his whole body was shaking: "Li Ziye, do you know what kind of person he is? I don't care who you like, just don't like him!"
"What kind of person is he? Do you know him well? " Li Ziye's voice was cold, and his eyes were also cold.
"He is a cold-blooded animal, he won't be with you!" There was a flash of anger in Bai Yuwang's eyes.
"I know." Li Ziye did not deny that Ye Xiang was indeed cold-blooded and heartless, and played tricks on her again and again. But so what, she still liked her, and that could not be changed.
After hearing what she said, Bai Yuwang was so angry that he almost collapsed.
Li Ziye, whom he cared so much about, actually fell in love with someone who treated her badly and might even hurt her. He really couldn't accept it, and he couldn't figure out where he had lost.
But Li Ziye didn't give him the chance to continue speaking. He stuffed all the textbooks into the drawer and sat back in his seat, looking like he didn't want to say another word.
Bai Yuwang had been with her for so long, so of course he understood her temper. In the end, he could only grit his teeth, turn around and stop talking.
What Li Ziye didn't expect was that when the first class in the afternoon was over, Bai Yuwang went straight to Ye Xiang's class and had a fight with Ye Xiang.
The person who came to tell Li Ziye was Meng Xiazi. This was the first sentence they had said in a few days: "Li Ziye, Bai Yuwang and Ye Xiang are fighting in Class 3. Hurry up and stop them!"
Li Ziye's heart skipped a beat and he immediately jumped up from his seat, then ran to the door of Class 3 without stopping.
There were already a lot of people watching there. Li Ziye tried hard to push through the crowd and squeeze in. As a result, he saw Bai Yuwang and Ye Xiang wrestling with each other. Ye Xiang clearly had the upper hand and pinned Bai Yuwang down on the table. Bai Yuwang also grabbed his collar and refused to give in, his eyes full of fierceness.
After Li Ziye ran over, he pulled Ye Xiang away, then pulled Bai Yuwang away, and yelled at Bai Yuwang: "Are you crazy? If you continue to act so unreasonably, we can no longer be friends!"
Bai Yuwang wiped the broken corner of his mouth, looked at Li Ziye dimly, and smiled slightly self-deprecatingly: "Li Ziye, how can you be so heartless."
Li Ziye did not answer, but pointed at the classroom door and shouted, "Go back!"
Bai Yuwang's eyes dimmed completely, and he walked out of Class 3 without looking back, leaving all his dignity and face behind.
Li Ziye turned around and looked at Ye Xiang: "I'm sorry to trouble you. If you are injured, I will pay for the medical expenses."
Ye Xiang was instantly stimulated by her words... This feeling of alienation is really maddening: "Li Ziye, why don't you go ask your Bai Yuwang if he's okay? He seems to be more seriously injured than me ."
Li Ziye calmed down, took a deep breath, and tried to force a smile: "Okay..."
Ye Xiang's eyes were cold, and he continued, "I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. I don't want to get into this kind of inexplicable trouble again."
Li Ziye clenched her fists, her palms were sweaty, and her heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles, but she still said, "This kind of thing will never happen again."
Ye Xiang's face turned pale, and he finally turned around and walked out of the classroom, leaving everyone with a hostile back.
People around him began to talk about Li Ziye: "Who is this woman? Is that person just now sick? Why did she come to trouble Ye Xiang for no reason?"
"You girls think Ye Xiang is good in everything. I think he should have been beaten up a long time ago, just look at his bad temper."
"What do you mean by being beaten? Didn't you see it? He was the one who beat up others in the end, okay? You guys are just sour grapes!"
"Anyway, I just think he's not a good person..."
Li Ziye didn’t listen to the rest of the conversation. She didn’t remember how she returned to the classroom.
She also wanted to ask, how could Ye Xiang be so heartless?
But isn't this better? This way she can completely give up and won't have any illusions about him anymore.
But why was she so sad? Why was there so much reluctance rising in her heart over and over again?
Li Ziye felt that she had really given up on Ye Xiang. She no longer paid attention to anything about him and avoided any place where he might appear. Although she knew that Ye Xiang might avoid her even more, she really didn't want to see him again.
It's not because she hates him because of love, but because she is afraid of being hated. However, she still can't help but like him when she sees him.
Isn't it just three years? If I make it through, I may never see him again in this life.
Bai Yuwang was also angry and didn't talk to her for two days after that day. She was happy to be left alone. But after two days, Bai Yuwang's anger subsided and he ran to apologize to her in a good mood: "Li Ziye, I was wrong about what happened last time. I shouldn't have rushed to fight with him on impulse and caused you trouble. I'm sorry."
Li Ziye felt really bad when he saw Bai Yuwang apologizing. He was silent for a long while before replying, "Bai Yuwang, you don't need to apologize. I don't deserve this."
It was not worth it for him to give up his dignity and face to treat her like this. She thought Bai Yuwang treated Ye Xiang the same way she did. Now it seemed a little different. She would still remember to keep some self-respect for herself, but Bai Yuwang seemed to have forgotten everything.
When Bai Yuwang heard what Li Ziye said, he was not as emotional as before, but replied in a very calm voice: "I think it's worth it, you don't have to draw conclusions for me. But I really want to tell you that Ye Xiang is really not worthy of your love. You know how heartless he is. There is no possibility for you to be with him. He will only hurt you..."
Li Ziye smiled bitterly: "Then I will only hurt you, why do you still care about me?"
Bai Yuwang was speechless because of her words. He clenched his fists and remained silent for a long time before speaking again: "Anyway, I don't care. I've already apologized. We'll still be friends from now on. Is that okay?"
Li Ziye really felt a little sad. Sometimes she would think, how nice it would be if the person she liked was Bai Yuwang. He appeared earlier than Ye Xiang, treated her better than Ye Xiang, and could put aside everything to like her... But why is it that feelings are so difficult? She doesn't like Bai Yuwang, she doesn't like him now, and she won't like him in the future. She really doesn't want to continue to be in this stalemate.
But what could she do? She had been bad enough to Bai Yuwang, but he still didn't give up.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Bai Yu nervously made a conclusion: "If you don't say anything, I will take it as your consent. We will still be friends in the future. Don't regret it!"
Li Ziye didn't say anything. Bai Yuwang's expression really made it difficult for her to say hurtful words. In fact, she was a little scared. If she didn't even have Bai Yuwang as a friend, would her life in school be even more miserable?
Just when Li Ziye was silent, Meng Xiazi suddenly turned around and looked at her with a cold look in her eyes: "Ziye, aren't you being too harsh on Bai Yuwang?"
Li Ziye was stunned by Meng Xiazi's question... Think about it, these days, she rejected Bai Yuwang so much and said so decisively, Meng Xiazi saw it all. She must feel very uncomfortable when the person she likes is treated like this, not to mention that this person is her friend.
However, before Li Ziye could come to his senses, Meng Xiazi turned his head away.
Even if she was made of iron, dealing with these things would tire her. She was like a spinning top, constantly dealing with her family and schoolmates, without a moment's rest. Now she didn't dare to accept Bai Yuwang's kindness, and Meng Xiazi gradually distanced herself from her. She was really about to become an isolated island .
Sometimes, she really felt tired and sad, but there was no one around to comfort her.
The armor on her body finally became the heaviest burden and she could hardly breathe.
