Liu Meilan took a look and found him quite handsome. "Who is he? Do you know him?"

"My secret crush!" Tang Xiaoyu lowered her head and said in a low voice, a little shyly.

"Ah?" Liu Meilan was startled and looked Tang Xiaoyu up and down. "You...you have ever been in love?"

"It was a secret love, a one-sided love. Before I could confess my feelings to him, he was admitted to university and left. Later, his family moved directly to the city, and he never came back." Tang Xiaoyu explained, holding the book and placing it upright on the table.

Liu Meilan was surprised, "But he looks older than you, he's not your classmate!"

Tang Xiaoyu glanced at the new teacher in front of him with a sly look in his eyes, and answered, "At that time, I was in the first year of high school, and he was in the third year. Was he handsome?"

Liu Meilan looked over and said, "He is handsome, but not to the point of shocking the world or making the gods and ghosts weep. Are you still thinking about him after all these years?"

"As for that!" Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "Haven't you heard of a saying? What you can't get always makes you restless."

Liu Meilan scratched her forehead and said, "I understand. This is the white moonlight in your heart."

"White moonlight?" Tang Xiaoyu murmured to himself, "Yes, yes, that's the taste."

"But you haven't seen each other for many years, and perhaps many things have changed. Don't get too excited and lose your composure." Liu Meilan reminded, "Xiao Yu, let me tell you something. In a relationship, whoever gets confused first will suffer first!"

Tang Xiaoyu blinked her eyes. "When you are in love, shouldn't you take the initiative to express your feelings? At the beginning, I didn't feel comfortable expressing my feelings, so I let him go and never heard from him again. Now we finally meet again. If I miss him again, wouldn't it be a lifelong regret for me?"

Liu Meilan scratched her head again. She had never had a serious relationship and all her experience came from TV dramas. She didn't know if it would work.

"It seems that what you said makes sense, but Xiaoyu, I still like you to be able to confess to Qin Ming and be calm and unaffected after being rejected, instead of being nervous and worried about gains and losses before anything has happened yet."

"Xiao Yu, love is precious, but career is more precious. Remember, all love can disappear, but career will not, it will accompany you throughout your life."

Tang Xiaoyu was stunned and found that what Liu Meilan said today was very profound!

"Meilan, I didn't realize you have the potential to be a soul master!"

Liu Meilan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She reached out and pinched Tang Xiaoyu's face. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm a fishing master, not a soul master who pretends to be a ghost and fools people."

The two of them covered their faces with books and discussed in low voices.

The new teacher, Yun Hong, walked down from the podium.

Yun Hong came in front of Tang Xiaoyu, took away the book that Tang Xiaoyu was holding up to cover himself, and knocked on the table.

"Student Tang Xiaoyu, class is about to start, stop whispering."

Tang Xiaoyu, who was winking and talking nonstop to Liu Meilan, suddenly became motionless as if he was under a spell.

"Yes...it's Teacher Yun." Tang Xiaoyu stuttered, like a gourd with half its mouth sawed off, and did not dare to look up.

It seemed that Liu Meilan also saw Tang Xiaoyu lowering his head and secretly scratching the corners of his eyes, worried that there was eye boogers.

Liu Meilan had to be wary of a man who made Tang Xiaoyu so confused.

Liu Meilan became alert and retorted openly and confidently, "Teacher Yun, the class bell hasn't rung yet! We are allowed to whisper to each other."

Yun Hong looked at Liu Meilan, quite surprised, "You are..."

Liu Meilan said in a carefree and assertive manner, "I will keep my name and surname, Liu Meilan. Tang Xiaoyu is my best friend!"

Women in love are all fools.

If you are confused just because you have a secret crush on someone, you are a big fool!

Even though Tang Xiaoyu is smart, he often cannot escape this vicious circle.

At this time, her best friend came on the scene.

Yun Hong smiled, "Tang Xiaoyu is interesting, and her friends are also interesting."

Liu Meilan bowed and said, "Thank you for the compliment. It's not that interesting. Sometimes when I see someone I hate, I will jump up and down, spitting and cursing."

"Ding ding..." the class bell rang.

Yun Hong smiled and said, "The class is about to start, listen carefully!"

Yun Hong turned around and walked towards the podium.

Tang Xiaoyu then dared to raise her head and look forward, still trying to cover her ears and steal the bell by covering most of her face with her hair.

Liu Meilan was almost laughing out of anger, "Look at how useless you are. You used that arrogant attitude when you scolded my second brother! He's just a man, isn't he? Is it necessary for you to be so distraught?"

"Love is beautiful, it's a two-way journey, it will make both parties better, not worse or more humble. Tang Xiaoyu, you have to cheer up and not lose your mind. Where is your previous carefree spirit?"

When Tang Xiaoyu heard what Liu Meilan said, he was slightly stunned and felt that there was something wrong with him.

"Meilan, you're right. Even if I have a crush on her, I can't be so useless as to not even be able to speak."

Liu Meilan nodded, "Yes! Let's go to class first, and I'll analyze it for you later."

Yunhong’s teaching of Business English is also very good.

Although not as humorous as Xu Ran, he can also explain things thoroughly.

Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu could understand.

After class at noon, Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu went to the toilet together.

Liu Meilan asked quietly, "Xiaoyu, can you tell me why you like him? You are in the first year of high school and he is in the third year. You are two grades apart."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, "First of all, he is handsome, the type I like, white, tall, and thin. Secondly, I once encountered a gangster and he came to help me out. Finally, my grades were not good, and he gave me extra lessons. He was so gentle."

Liu Meilan touched her chin and said, "Xiaoyu, I think there is something wrong."

"What's the problem?" Tang Xiaoyu was surprised.

The school bell rang, and Liu Meilan said, "Let's go to class first."

Tang Xiaoyu is always distracted and is not very efficient in class.

Yun Hong saw Tang Xiaoyu, "Tang Xiaoyu, is someone coming to pick you up?"

"Yes!" Liu Meilan replied quickly, "Goodbye, Teacher Yun!"

Yun Hong nodded, looked at Tang Xiaoyu and smiled, "See you tomorrow night!"

After saying that, Yun Hong walked out with a calm expression.

This indifferent expression reminded Liu Meilan of the interview with Tang Xiaoyu in her previous life.

As the CEO of a Fortune 100 company, he once talked about relationship issues during an interview.

You fall in love with someone like a moth to a flame, thinking that you can get the other person's resonance, but you can't warm a stone in twenty years.

First love is beautiful, but not necessarily perfect.

Especially the one-sided love made her exhausted physically and mentally. Even though the family's financial improvement was due to her efforts, she did not receive encouragement and gratitude from the other party, but instead took it for granted.

Not only that, but cold violence is also common.

If she said a few more words, the other party would say she was being unreasonable.

Liu Meilan understood a little when she saw Yun Hong's indifferent and pretentious look.

This is a hypocritical person who enjoys the positive changes in the family brought about by Tang Xiaoyu's hard work, and enjoys Tang Xiaoyu's pursuit and admiration, but does not give Tang Xiaoyu corresponding emotional returns.

Isn’t this PUA?

The key is that Tang Xiaoyu is a fish that willingly takes the bait!

It takes twenty years to recognize the deception of love and walk out of the grave of love.

"Yun..." Tang Xiaoyu was about to speak, but Liu Meilan covered his mouth.

Liu Meilan narrowed her eyes, "Xiaoyu, something is wrong. I don't feel well."

"What's wrong?" Tang Xiaoyu was shocked and puzzled. "What kind of premonition do you have?"

Liu Meilan packed up her textbooks, carried her schoolbag, and took Tang Xiaoyu's arm. "Tonight, you sleep with me and I will analyze this for you in detail."

Tang Xiaoyu has always valued Liu Meilan's feelings. "Okay, I have something to discuss with you too!"

Mayor Tang, who was standing at the door, saw his daughter coming out and smiled, "Why are you so slow today?"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Uncle Tang, Xiaoyu and I had a conversation in the classroom! I will go out to sea tomorrow, and I want Xiaoyu to sleep over at my place tonight so we can talk about something."

Mayor Tang smiled when he heard this. "Okay! You are in the early stages of starting your business and you still have to learn. You are really busy. Xiaoyu, do you want me to ask your brother to send you some clothes? And toiletries?"

Liu Meilan waved her hand, "Uncle Tang, no need! I have them all over there!"

Tang Xiaoyu also smiled and said, "Yes, Dad. Meilan has a lot of things over there. I have rested there before!"

"Okay! Then I'll send you back!" Mayor Tang said with a smile. Even though he saw Zhang Jian coming, he insisted on sending his daughter to Liu Meilan's home.

When Mr. Liu saw his granddaughter coming, he turned off the lights and went to bed.

After they finished washing up, Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu lay on the bed.

But they slept in two quilts, facing each other.

"Meilan, why do you feel bad?"

Liu Meilan pondered for a moment and did not answer directly. Instead, she asked, "Xiaoyu, when you were in the first year of high school, you were only fifteen or sixteen years old. At that time, you were more naive and your emotions were exposed. Do you think you could hide your secret love for Yunhong from her eyes and facial expressions?"

Tang Xiaoyu was slightly startled, and after thinking carefully, he said, "No!"

Liu Meilan continued, "Since he can't, then Yun Hong, who is a top student, is a very smart person. Can't he see it?"

Tang Xiaoyu was stunned again, "He is very smart and careful, he should have seen it!"

Liu Meilan added: "You were in the first year of high school at the time. He noticed it but didn't point it out. He did the right thing! He didn't disturb your studies."

"He was admitted to the university and his family moved away! You haven't met each other since then. Did he write to you?"

Tang Xiaoyu's voice faded, "No! Not only during high school, but I didn't get into college, and I didn't get a letter from him even after I started working!"

Liu Meilan asked again: "He should have known someone on Sifang Island. He didn't write to you during high school, so he didn't disturb your studies."

"Then after you started working, there was still no news from him! If he cared about you and liked you, how could he not ask people he knew on Sifang Island about you?"

Tang Xiaoyu was stunned and then stopped talking!

"But now that he sees me, he's very gentle! Not only that, Yun Hong even took the initiative to greet me." Tang Xiaoyu said, "Does he think I'm good and want to pursue me?"

Liu Meilan shook her head, "I don't think so. The inference just now has already shown that Yun Hong clearly knew that you had a crush on him and liked him, but he never responded to you from beginning to end, which is enough to prove that he doesn't like you. My conclusion may make you sad, but it is a fact. You are very smart, you should be able to analyze it."

"Also, if you guys met more often, maybe I could still see Yun Hong's change in attitude towards you as a sign of affection. But that's not the case. You haven't seen each other for more than five years. Why would he treat you like this when you meet now? Have you ever thought about the reasons and purpose behind this?"

Tang Xiaoyu took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and his brain functioned normally again.

"Meilan, you are right. Yunhong doesn't like me. He has never liked me from the beginning to the end. I shouldn't indulge in the self-touching and self-imagining thoughts of my former secret love. I should face the reality."

"According to the time, he has graduated for more than a year and started working. His family's financial situation was not good at the beginning. It may be better now, but they are not necessarily rich. After entering the society, he encountered setbacks. It may be work-related or emotional problems."

"Finally, after many twists and turns, I remembered that there was once a silly girl on the island who loved him so sincerely and admired him. Moreover, this girl was very well-off and her family could provide a lot of support. She was indeed a very good marriage partner."

Liu Meilan was shocked. She reached out and rubbed Tang Xiaoyu's face vigorously. "The smart Xiaoyu I'm familiar with is back again. This is also my guess. Brother Tang Zheng knows so many people. Ask him to help you check."

"I seriously suspect that Yun Hong had been in a relationship before. The other party was a daughter of heaven, but her parents did not agree, so they had to separate. In the end, I thought of you, a stupid little fool in love. I only need to beckon you and you will fall into my trap."

Liu Meilan really likes Tang Xiaoyu, who is cute, lively, kind and capable.

Now Tang Xiaoyu is her good friend and partner. She hopes Tang Xiaoyu will be happy.

Tang Xiaoyu hugged Liu Meilan tightly, "Meilan, thank you. If you hadn't enlightened me, I might still be living in the beautiful feeling of secret love that I had created for myself!"

Liu Meilan patted Tang Xiaoyu on the back and whispered, "Xiaoyu, everyone gets confused sometimes. Don't I often do stupid things? It's okay, it will all pass."

"When you take off the filter and see through the other person's intentions, you will treat it rationally. Yun Hong is very good, but in my eyes, he is not as good as Xiao Yu."

"My Xiaoyu deserves the best man in the world. The most beautiful love is a two-way love, sweet and warm, not unrequited love, let alone calculations and cold violence from the other party."

"Yeah!" Tang Xiaoyu smiled and rubbed his head against Liu Meilan's chest, "Meilan, you look thin, but you have a lot of body!"

After saying that, Tang Xiaoyu stretched out his hand and pinched it.

Liu Meilan turned pale and pushed Tang Xiaoyu away. "You female hooligan, I was worried that you would be in love and get taken advantage of. But you actually flirted with me."

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled and regained her usual calmness. "I'm a woman, and you're a woman too, so what are you afraid of? Let's go take a bath together, and I'll rub your back! I've seen everything!"

Liu Meilan wrapped herself in the quilt, leaving only her round head exposed. "Get lost! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kick you out."

The two men played around for a while and then lay on their backs.

Tang Xiaoyu said softly: "Thank you, Meilan!"

Liu Meilan mumbled in a daze, "You're welcome. Think positively. Don't give up the entire forest for a crooked tree."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, "Okay!"
