I Heard We Were in Love

[Seeking Favorites for My Sister Novel "Old Times"]

1. At some point, rumors started spreading at Nan University that the campus belle, Jiang Xingyuan, was dating Xu Yan, the handsome guy from the university next door. The rumors grew wilder by the day.

Even Xu Yan's friends asked him, "When are you going to invite your girlfriend out for a meal?"

But both people involved insisted: "We've never even met!"

Later, the person who started the rumor posted a clarification: Jiang Xingyuan had only been asking Xu Yan for directions. They had been misunderstood.

Soon, Xu Yan replied beneath the post: "The misunderstanding was real. Now we're together for real, too."

2. When the rumors first appeared, Jiang Xingyuan was too busy to pay them any attention. Then one night, she received a call from an unknown number.

The caller immediately said, "You're Xu Yan's girlfriend, right? I've got your boyfriend."

Jiang Xingyuan: "Go ahead and kill him. I was planning to get a new one."

1. In their second year of high school, Xu Muyan fell in love at first sight with a boy with ash-gray hair who was being lectured in the teachers' office.

The very next day, the boy transferred into her class. Before Xu Muyan could even begin her secret crush, she accidentally broke his hand. From then on, she took special care of him at school.

She helped him get lunch, took notes for him, and even asked if he wanted to go to the bathroom.

Lin Cen sensed something was off, but said, "Wait until next year. You're not an adult yet."

Xu Muyan: "..."

Many years later, a student asked Lin Cen in a lecture hall what stupid thing he'd done for love.

He replied, "I dyed my hair to match my wife's idol's, just to get her attention."

She would never know that while she had a secret crush on him, he had been planning to win her heart for a long time.

2. On the last evening study session before the college entrance exam, everyone stayed up late of their own accord. At midnight, the power suddenly went out.

Amid the screams and laughter in the classroom, in an unnoticed corner,

Lin Cen reached into his desk to get his phone and turn on its light. The next moment, someone stole a kiss from him.

After a brief taste, the person started to pull away. Lin Cen lowered his phone, reached back to grab the person's neck, and deepened the kiss.

In the darkness, Lin Cen brushed against Xu Muyan's ear and said, "Don't think I don't know who you are, Xu Muyan."

Summer fireworks suddenly rose in the distance, lighting up their eyes.

[Crackling fireworks blossomed in that summer that belonged to us, and we shone brightly.]

Note: There is no romance in high school. The kiss takes place after they are adults.
