If You're a Coward

After being too timid to do anything about her crush on Zhong Yu for three years, Song Shuhua wanted to be brave for once. Luckily, a high school senior was organizing a reunion, and Zhong Yu would be there too. Song Shuhua rehearsed her confession over and over, planning to tell Zhong Yu after the reunion. Her feelings distracted her all evening. She gave everyone who tried to talk to her a polite, formal smile, and even did something she'd never done before: added three guys on WeChat. After the reunion, she and Zhong Yu headed back to campus together. Song Shuhua hesitated, wondering how to confess. Unexpectedly, he spoke first. "Song Shuhua, I've realized you're a little slow on the uptake." Song Shuhua: "?" Zhong Yu: "Didn't you notice those guys wanted your WeChat because they were trying to pursue you?" Song Shuhua asked doubtfully, "I don't think so. It's normal for alumni to add each other. Isn't that how we met?" In the clear evening light, Zhong Yu's ears turned an unnatural shade of red. "That's why I said you're slow on the uptake." "I've made it so obvious. How have you still not figured out that I like you?"
