In the second year after I had a crush on Zhou Xichen, I stood under the camphor tree next to the playground, and the camphor leaves were blown by the wind and fell into the palm of my hand.
I looked up at the sky, but those words echoed in my ears repeatedly, lingering.
"He said that to him, you were just a benefactor."
"Why..."
"Of course it's because of those snacks you gave him."
"..."
Tears fell from the corners of my eyes without warning, and my heart felt sour and bitter.
I blame myself for being so sentimental in the past two years, and I feel even more sad that my kindness to him is just a "benefactor" to him.
Just when the sadness reached its peak, even more desperate news came crashing down——
"Zhiyu, your grandma..."
I asked for leave like crazy and rushed to the hospital, praying ten thousand times in my heart.
Outside the operating room, the high cost of surgery made me almost breathless.
It's Jiangyu.
He paid the money for me and stayed outside the ward with grandma all day long.
At the entrance of the hospital, the evening breeze gently brushed my cheeks.
"Thank you, Jiang Yu."
"Just a verbal thank you?"
"How do you want me to thank you?"
I raised my head and looked at him quietly.
Jiang Yu lowered his head and brought his warm breath to my ear:
"Try to like me, okay?"
Along with the sound of the wind, I vaguely heard him speak again, his voice as soft as a sigh.
"Stop liking him..."
