[Campus life + mutual pining + healing]
A distant, aloof college girl × a lazy, carefree college guy
When Shi Ying was fifteen and in her final year of middle school, her best friend grew distant and rejected her, her crush stood her up and transferred schools, and her parents fought before divorcing. Under blow after blow, her grades plummeted. She failed the high school entrance exam and ended up at an ordinary, little-known high school. From then on, she kept her distance from others and endured the difficult years of high school alone, eventually earning excellent grades and getting into A University, a famous school in City A.
When those familiar words rang out again after five years, her heart was once more deeply moved.
But what choice could someone as cold and distant as her make this time?
It seemed her heart had always been beating for the boy in her memories.
“Shi Ying, come to the park on Qixi night. There’s something I want to tell you. Don’t be late.”
“You’re so fake. I never want to be friends with you again!”
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have given up my bright future to choose family life!”
In the end, her crush stood her up.
In the end, her best friend stopped contacting her.
In the end, her parents divorced.
Beneath the dim streetlights, he took her hand and led her forward. Tears filled her eyes as she kept asking, “Why are you pulling me away? What are we now?”
His lazy, carefree voice came from ahead. “You’re so noisy.”
He turned and kissed her, silencing her questions.
“Can you keep quiet now?” he asked as he let her go.
“But…”
He leaned down to her ear and finally said the words, “I like you.”
“Funny, I like you too.”
