The woman made of water

  After about ten minutes, Bai Lu, Yang Le and Zhang Qiang came down. When Bai Lu saw Liu Ao Long, the smile on her face also disappeared. Yang Le and Zhang Qiang sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so they tactfully left. Just as the two were entangled in their conversation about where they had gone, Hu Xiao Xiao suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pulled them into the west teaching building.

  "What's going on, Old Hu?"

  "Just watch and see! There will be a good show soon!"

  "Dewdrop..." Liu Ao Long reached out and caught White Dew as she was about to leave, pulling her back in front of him.

  Bai Lu twisted his hand, what made her the angriest was that she had angrily left him without him coming to chase after her. If you had come to chase after me, I would have given you a reason to believe in you, but why didn't you even bother to chase? Did you think I wouldn't leave you? Or did you think I wasn't important?

  "Dew, don't be angry! I didn't not buy you a gift, and I didn't forget. I did buy one, I really did. But I wanted to surprise you, so I didn't tell you. Sorry, it was my fault for being too self-willed...I had planned to give it to you during dinner tonight."

  Liu Ao Long took out a milky white ceramic pigeon figurine from his pocket, and Bai Lu looked at it in surprise. She had liked this pigeon figurine for a long time and had wanted to buy it, but when she went back to the store, it had already been sold to someone else. The shopkeeper said that each figurine was unique and only one of its kind, representing something truly special. Maybe other stores had similar ones, but this particular store's figurines were different because they were handmade by the owner himself. Each figurine had some small, delicate decorations that made it distinct from the others. For example, the decoration on this pigeon figurine was on its eyes, which had a pale blue color and sparkled like diamonds.

  "How...how did you get it?" Bai Lu couldn't believe it, after all, it had already been sold, although it wasn't a very valuable thing. But this thing was something she saw in her second year of high school, almost two years ago. Liu Ao Long actually still remembered!

  "I've been searching for almost two years, and it was also by chance that I heard our classmate mention... the beautiful girl from today, saying that her family has one, but didn't know if it was the one I was looking for. So I told her... I said my sister likes it, can she give it to me..."

  "But why did you say I was your sister? I'm your girlfriend. Are you that ashamed of me?"

  "No, dew drops aren't like that. Actually it's because of her..."

  "Do you like me?"

  Liu Ao Long shook his head: "Lu Zhu, it's not what you think. Actually, it's because she just went through a breakup. My classmate told me not to say in front of her that I wanted it for my girlfriend, as she has high self-esteem and would be too hurt by this, so she wouldn't give it to me. So when you got angry and left, I didn't go after you..."

  "Really?" Liu Ao Long nodded, and Bai Lu looked at the pigeon in his hand, thought for a long time, and nodded: "Okay, I believe you this once. So this time, for the sake of this pigeon, I forgive you!"

  "Really?" Liu Aolong happily pulled Bai Lu into his arms. And for the first time, Bai Lu didn't struggle free from Liu Aolong's embrace, instead she hugged him back, her hands holding a milky white pigeon, feeling very happy at this moment.

  Thinking of how he had been running around everywhere in his free time over the past two years, just to find this pigeon sculpture she liked, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

  Liu Ao Long felt her trembling and immediately let go of her. Seeing that she was crying, he clumsily wiped away her tears while apologizing: "Lu Zhu, don't cry. I'm sorry, it's my fault, I shouldn't have held you like that, don't cry, stop crying, I was wrong!"

  Bai Lu shook her head: "No, Diamond, I didn't expect you to be so good to me, and I misunderstood you..."

  Liu Ao Long was taken aback, could it be that Lu Zhu was crying because of this? "Lu Zhu... are you crying because of this?"

  Bai Lu nodded. Liu Ao Long excitedly hugged Bai Lu and spun her around several times: "It's okay, no matter how you misunderstand me in the future, as long as you give me a chance to explain, as long as you believe me, that's all that matters. I'm just afraid you won't believe me, won't like me."

  In the distance, Jiang Feng and Gao Yuan looked at each other and smiled, then immediately ran to both sides to connect the previously prepared power source. At this time, the small lights under Bai Lu's feet were almost all lit up, forming two circles, with the larger circle surrounding the smaller one. Bai Lu and Liu Ao Long stood inside the smaller circle. Just as Bai Lu was surprised, the colored lights changed, turning into a heart shape, repeating several times before finally going out. Just when Bai Lu thought it was over and wanted to thank Liu Ao Long, the lights lit up again, but this time they were not on the ground, instead suspended in mid-air, revealing five big characters: "Bai Lu I Love You!" And they kept shining steadily without a single flicker. It was as if at this moment, Liu Ao Long had no hesitation whatsoever.

  Bai Lu was moved to tears again, she rushed into Liu Ao Long's arms, although crying, her face was full of happiness.

  "Yan Yan, are you drifting north because of him?" asked Xu Yan's best friend.

  "I guess so. After all, I loved him that much back then! As for him, I couldn't even describe how much I liked him. At the time, we had just met for a little over a month, and I already deeply fell in love with him. I didn't know why I would like him that much, but anyway, I just did."

  "So why did you leave him? Did you two have a fight and break up? I don't think so, do you? Aren't you afraid of hurting him?"

  "What's gotten into you now?" Xuyan's best friend just quietly looked at her, she knew that Xuyan would tell her. "It's because I love him, so I chose to leave. Nuan Nuan, do you think women are really made of water?"

  "Right. My ex-boyfriend used to say the same thing. He said that women are made of water and should drink more water, or they will wither away without it. So every morning he would give me a glass of water. Later we broke up, after three years together...he got married...I cried for him again, but I told myself this was the last time I'd cry for him."

  "Can you do it?" Xuyan looked up at her best friend, she was really beautiful, if her eyes were a little bigger, she would be even more beautiful.

  "He once saw me cry for him and said he wasn't worth it..."

  "He's really not worth it. You're so good and kind to him, yet he still wants to hurt your heart. He's absolutely despicable!"

  "Yan, do you know what I said at that time?" Xu Yan shook her head and said: "You gave me a glass of water. As long as you're willing, I can cry for you every night. At that time, he cried, he cried for me, and I will never forget the three blurry words from his mouth...I knew that at that time, he really loved me."

  "Jiang Feng has never cried for me before! But I'd rather he be happy every day, even if he's forgotten about me. I hope he can be happy, after all, it was my choice to leave him, and I didn't even tell him..."
