Love Letters

He Miao opened and closed his lips, but he finally said those words bravely.

Straightforward, bold, sincere...this is He Miao.

After she finished speaking, there was silence.

He Miao waited for Xu Mobai's reply.

Waiting for an answer was more stressful than confessing.

Her palms were a little sweaty.

There was obvious surprise and joy in his eyes, and he looked happy, but it soon changed.

In a flash, he was still the same cold Xu Mobai as before.

"Xu Mobai, do you like me?"

He Miao asked again slowly, her breath spraying in front of him, hot yet slightly moist.

He Miao could only hear his own heartbeat, which drowned out the sounds around him.

She rubbed her hands nervously, a nervous look on her face.

After the expected silence, she heard a completely different voice than before, with a mute tone: "I'm sorry."

It was obviously an attempt to escape. Why didn't she think about what to do if she was rejected?

Now my brain can't keep up.

"Does sorry mean rejection?"

"Ah."

He nodded and responded softly.

For a moment, my brain went blank and I was caught off guard.

My feet felt like they were filled with lead and nailed to the ground.

She froze there, unable to move.

It seems like I’m just reacting now, and it’s becoming real now.

She had just confessed to Xu Mobai and was rejected.

The first time he confessed and was rejected, He Miao just felt hot and embarrassed.

All the blood in my body rushed to my face, making it red as fire.

"What seed?"

She heard him calling her, and his usually quiet voice suddenly sounded a little warm.

The next moment, she clearly noticed that he paused, and then an emotionless voice floated into her ears.

"Feel sorry!"

"Is it because you don't want to fall in love too early?"

"You can think so."

What do you mean by "you can think so"? It's a perfunctory and lame excuse.

He Miao never thought that he would be rejected for such a reason.

Don’t want to fall in love too early... It just sounds like a panacea to fool people.

"Did you know it was me that night?"

She was referring to the night when she confessed her love in the multimedia classroom.

She suddenly looked at him and said seriously.

"know."

He slowly raised his eyelids and met her gaze, with a look of alienation between his brows.

"and then?"

He Miao still looked straight at him, his eyes dimmed, and he seemed to find himself a little funny, "That's it?"

"Ah."

"Ok."

After getting the answer, He Miao finally felt relieved, but still felt a slight pain.

He Miao turned and left, walked a distance away and then turned back.

She searched her schoolbag thoroughly in front of him, but suddenly couldn't find it.

My already panicked hands were now shaking violently.

But the more anxious I was, the harder it was to find.

She was so anxious that she wanted to put herself in the bag and zip it up.

Fortunately, the box was found in the mezzanine in the end.

"Give!"

She stuffed the gift into his hand and smiled, "Xu Mobai, happy birthday!"

"what......"

"Also, Xu Mobai, I don't need you."

He Miao looked stubborn and tough, and silently took note of him in her heart.

She won't like him anymore.

"I'll take you back."

He suddenly reached out and held her, his extremely hot breath and big hands made her unable to recover.

He Miao struggled to shake him off, insisting, "I want to go back by myself."

"He Miao!"

He stared at her with his dark eyes, and said in a somewhat tough tone, "It's already dark now..."

"Let me go back by myself."

She interrupted him, her voice becoming quieter and quieter until it was almost audible only to herself.

She always thought she was special to Xu Mobai, but she didn't expect to be rejected.

It seemed like she was no different from all the girls he rejected.

All the speculations she had been having were illusions and wishful thinking.

When the real reality hit her, it immediately caught her off guard.

He Miao was walking and suddenly started running, running faster and faster, as if escaping from his sight.

Her confession was rejected, and out of embarrassment and ashamedness, she ran so fast that she dropped one of her shoes.

It was only when she felt the tingling and coldness on the soles of her feet that she remembered to get them back.

But when I went back, I couldn't find it.

Swaying tree shadows, fragmented dreams.

This night seems to be a new season where summer and autumn meet.

However, as the hot and unbridled summer came to an end, the deliberate fantasy also disappeared.

Summer will pass like this, like watching a movie, and perhaps this mood is the same.

He Miao's brief crush, which lasted less than a summer, ended just like that, and her first love also came to an abrupt end.

Growing pains may not require reconciliation.

She went back barefoot, suddenly afraid of being scolded by Zhang Meili.

She has both socks and shoes that can't be matched into pairs. The socks are fine as they can be worn in different colors, but it's really just a waste of another pair of shoes.

Her simple confession today is a plain love letter.

It is the greatest confession to him and to youth!

He Miao forgot when he started crying.

Maybe in front of him?

Maybe on the run?

Or maybe now...

"Little girl, don't cry, it will be there in just one minute, uncle is really not a bad person!"

“People passing by thought I was a child trafficker.”

"What's the big deal? There's no need to make yourself so miserable."

The driver looked anxious, scared and helpless.

Although he kept saying words to comfort her, He Miao didn't bother to respond to him.

She kept wiping her tears and trying to suppress her cries, her throat choking and aching.

There is a lot of traffic outside the window, and the lights are like colorful lines.

She went back exhausted from the day's work.

The lights in the corridor flickered, changing faster than Xu Mobai's expression!

It turns out that she never understood him...

Just as she was about to open the door, footsteps suddenly sounded behind her.

She subconsciously looked back and when she saw the person coming, she immediately cried out and started crying again.

Unlike before when she secretly wiped away her tears, this time she burst into tears, her voice filling the entire corridor.
