The Senior Mistook His Challenge for a Love Letter

Ren Nian sent the school bully a challenge letter, but the bully mistook it for a love letter.

Yang Tian: You like me?

Ren Nian: ...No.

Yang Tian: Fine, then I'll graciously let you pursue me. But I'm a very self-respecting person, so if you don't put in the effort, I won't say yes.

Ren Nian: Thanks, but I'm not interested.

A week later.

Yang Tian: I've decided to accept your pursuit.

Ren Nian: ? I haven't done anything.

Ren Nian: (just breathing)

Yang Tian: (falls over) What a move.

Ren Nian thought this guy had something wrong with him. He'd turned him down n times, yet Yang Tian still came over, full of confidence, to tell him he liked him.

Yang Tian thought his junior was kind of cute. He clearly liked him but stubbornly refused to admit it. No matter, a considerate senior would give him a chance.

So, when Yang Tian put flowers in his desk drawer for the n+1st time, then walked past the nearby window with absolutely no subtlety for the n+1st time to hint that Ren Nian should give him flowers, Ren Nian finally snapped.

Ren Nian: Can you stop bothering me? I've told you I don't like you!

Yang Tian: You're lying. How could anyone in this world not like me? How do you know you don't like me?

Ren Nian: ...

Ren Nian thought Yang Tian might be illiterate. Otherwise, how could he mistake a challenge letter for a love letter?

Even after their relationship grew closer, Ren Nian still wondered if his senior could get into a junior college.

Until the summer vacation of the year they parted ways, when Ren Nian saw Yang Tian's name on TV and on the banners at school, everywhere he looked.

Top scorer in the province...

The sadness eventually passed. He had to pull himself together and move on to the next thing.

That day, repeat students streamed through the school gates, and Ren Nian saw Yang Tian's face in the crowd.
