The Most Beautiful in the World

My next story will be “A Life for a Life” - Popular online question: [What was your unrequited love like?] Someone answered anonymously He was the math rep in our class, a tall, fair, cool guy, 188 centimeters, with thick eyebrows, a high nose, and a slight fang when he smiled. His nickname was “Bort of the Affiliated High School” because he was the fastest runner from the classroom to the cafeteria. He wanted to attend police academy and become a police officer. When no one listened to me, he looked me in the eyes and said, “Go ahead, I'm listening.” When a boy's basketball hit me, he stood up for me. “Apologize to my classmate.” When I broke down before the college entrance exam, he braved the blizzard and sent me photos of the city I wanted to visit. “The snow at the Palace Museum is beautiful. Want to come see it yourself next year?” “I'll take you.” At first, there were a few rows of desks between us. Then a few classes. Finally, most of China. Now, lost in the vast sea of people, we've had no news of each other. Some say he became a police officer. Some say he was killed in the line of duty. I prayed to the gods, begging them to let him be alive somewhere in this world. From now on, I'll do everything I can to save lives and heal the wounded, even if it costs me my life. Later, someone asked: [Do you still like him?] One late night, years later, the original poster came online I've liked him for thirteen years, and I still dream about the last time we saw each other. After the college entrance exam, he passed me by, walking farther and farther away until he disappeared into the crowd. When I open my eyes, he's right there beside me. He pulls me close in his sleep and kisses me. “Did you have a nightmare? I'm here.” [Screenshot uploaded June 24, 2023] - Upcoming story “Uncle Longlegs”: rich young master x sweet girl Shen Tingfeng, the Shen family's only son, was an out-and-out playboy. When he heard that his arranged fiancée was coming to the city for university and would be living at his house, his buddies teased him. “Childhood betrothal?” Shen Tingfeng lowered his gaze, his voice cool and distant. “She'll be crying and running home to her mom in three days.” - When Shen Tingfeng arrived home, Si Zhu was sitting on her suitcase. The girl was fair and delicate, like a little ball of glutinous rice. Seeing the tattoos on his body and the bottle in his hand, she pouted as if frightened and looked at him timidly without saying a word. Maybe this engagement wasn't such a bad idea after all. The old deer in Shen Tingfeng's heart went wild. How do I tell her my full-sleeve tattoo is a temporary sticker, and the bottle is actually filled with Yakult? “Little scene” One day, Shen Tingfeng's rowdy friends invited him out for drinks, only to find the young master teaching a little girl self-defense and grappling. “Si Zhu, you're so clumsy.” The girl blushed as if she were about to cry. Everyone laughed at Shen Tingfeng for being clueless and destined to die alone. But the next second, Shen Tingfeng drew her into his arms, the corners of his eyes curving as he said helplessly, “I should find myself a boyfriend who's good at fighting.” [Screenshot uploaded January 30, 2023] Theme: What is longed for will one day be answered.
