She was afraid of losing friends and could only remain a childhood friend, too timid to confess. But when he asked her alone if she had a crush on him, she didn't notice his sweaty palms. She didn't dare answer and could only ask him if he had a crush on her. Her hands trembled, but she pretended to be calm and put them behind her back. His ears turned bright red, and he tried to pull something out of his pocket, but she was afraid of being exposed and ran away. He was disappointed and wanted to transfer schools. When she heard the news, she felt even more heartbroken. She bitterly thought she would never see him again. When she got into university, she heard that familiar voice being confessed to by the school beauty.
