Chapter 1: A One-Day Sibling Romance

  It is said that Liu Yi had a romance in his first year of high school, which made him lose confidence in love from then on.

  The story starts from this day, there was a third-year high school girl named Wang Xiao You. This girl was a good student and also the top student in her class, but Liu Yi was a student who always ranked at the bottom of his class and didn't strive to improve.

  One day, when Wang Xiangyou went to eat lunch, she ran into Liu Yi. Due to her excitement, she accidentally knocked over Liu Yi's tray, spilling the soup all over him. Wang Xiangyou stood there at a loss, stuttering "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to... if you take off your clothes, I can help you wash them."

  Liu Yi was also confused at the time, so he took off his jacket and handed it to Wang Xiao You, saying "I'm from Class 8 of Senior One, just send it to my class after washing." Unexpectedly, this romance actually started from this.

  After washing the clothes and returning them to Liu Yi, Wang Xiangyou's face was filled with a shy blush. For Wang Xiangyou, helping a boy wash his clothes was still a first, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy about it.

  Liu Yi also felt a little embarrassed, but didn't think much of it.

  In an unexpected situation, Wang Xiangyou was threatened by a bad guy, and Liu Yi happened to witness the scene. He thought that although he had only been in contact with her a few times, they were still acquaintances after all. He couldn't let the bad guys bully people around him, this was Liu Yi's principle.

  Then Liu Yi rushed up. Quickly ran to the back of the four scoundrels, before they could react, Liu Yi had already secretly tightened one person's neck and knocked him to the ground with a knee lift.

  Three others heard the cry of their companion, and immediately turned around to rush towards Liu Yi. Liu Yi dodged to one side, and with a swift kick, sent the taller man stumbling backward several steps.

  Before the other two could rush up, Liu Yi suddenly jumped into the air, spinning 180 degrees to kick one person down. At the same time, his right fist shot out, pummeling the last person's face. The man had no time to dodge and was knocked down with a single punch.

  The ruffians were repelled, and Wang Xiangyou was rescued. Weak all over, Wang Xiangyou fell in front of Liu Yi. The frail figure, the big and bright eyes, the long eyelashes, and the cherry-like small mouth adorned this oriental girl, giving her a captivating feeling. Liu Yi's heart fluttered slightly, but he didn't dare to think more, so he hastily helped up the delicate beauty in front of him. However, unexpectedly, Wang Xiangyou, due to being frightened, fell into Liu Yi's arms, completing an unintentional "embrace". Liu Yi had no choice but to hold Wang Xiangyou and send her home like this. The sky was slightly cool, and the gentle breeze lifted Wang Xiangyou's hair, gradually waking her up.

  Seeing herself being held by Liu Yi in this posture, Wang Xiao You also felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't have the strength to walk on her own, so she didn't ask Liu Yi to put her down.

  Suddenly, Wang Xiao Yu spoke up and said to Liu Yi "Recognize me as your sister?"

  Liu Yi continued to hold Wang Xiao You as they walked forward, completely unaware that she had already woken up. A sudden jolt almost made Wang Xiao You fall to the ground.

  Wang Xiao You was also startled and let out a cry of surprise.

  After reacting, Liu Yi was stunned. "Is it okay?" Wang Xiao's voice broke the brief silence.

  Liu Yi didn't know what it meant either, but thinking that Wang Xiao You was already in her third year of high school and he was only in his first year, it seemed like there wasn't anything wrong with it, so he nodded his head in agreement and said "Okay."

  Afterwards, the two people just remained silent all along the way, neither of them speaking again.

  After sending Wang Xiuyou home, Liu Yigang wanted to leave, but heard Wang Xiuyou call out to him with a "Well-behaved little brother!"

  "Huh?" Liu Yi turned his head and looked at Wang Xiao You.

  "Good night!" Wang Xiao smiled faintly and gazed at Liu Yi.

  Liu Yi also involuntarily had a smile spread across his face "Mm, goodnight!"

  On the way back, Liu Yi felt that everything seemed a bit strange. Suddenly, Wang Xiao's face appeared in his mind. Her frowns and smiles, her voice and laughter, her words were like a film floating before his eyes.

  Could it be that he had fallen in love with her? Liu Yi was secretly puzzled, but no matter what, he had already acknowledged her as his sister. How could there be a romantic relationship between siblings? With these thoughts, Liu Yi walked back home.

  It was late at night, the wind started to pick up, and Liu Yi's heart felt a hint of bitterness as he gazed at the swaying shadow of the tree branches outside his window. He walked over to the window, lit a cigarette, and watched as a wisp of white smoke escaped from his mouth. In that moment, Liu Yi made a silent decision: he would confess his feelings to Wang Xiangyu.

  A seemingly quiet night passed by, but in Liu Yi's mind, thousands of confession words floated through.

  The next day, Liu Yi walked to Wang Xiangyu's classroom door and silently looked at her, thinking about how to start a conversation.

  Perhaps it was a spiritual connection, but Wang Xiao You also sensed Liu Yi's presence. She lifted her head to look towards the door and happened to see Liu Yi's melancholic expression. She walked out of the classroom and approached him, "Good morning, little brother."

  The word "brother" suddenly made Liu Yi feel as if someone had stabbed him in the heart, he abruptly lifted his head and gazed at Wang Xiao You with a sorrowful expression. "Don't call me brother! I...Xiao You, be my girlfriend!"

  Unexpectedly, Wang Xiao You didn't have any surprised expression, lightly smiling "Alright." The sweetness of the two people started from this moment... passionately kissing, warmly embracing, as if they wanted to merge into one body.

  Liu Yi Zheng was happily reminiscing about his love that came from heaven in the classroom, but he didn't know that the person he loved had already left his side.

  Wang Xiuyou has arrived at the principal's office to apply for a transfer. Although the principal does not want his school to lose such a good student, he cannot persuade Wang Xiuyou with her resolute attitude and can only sign.

  Gathering her belongings, Wang Xiangyu walked towards the school gate. Suddenly, she turned around and looked at Liu Yi's classroom, silently saying to herself "Sorry, Liu Yi, we are siblings, destined not to be together."

  No farewell, no hesitation, no entanglement, she left, just like that...

  Only Liu Yi was left, sitting stupidly on the playground in a daze, letting the cold wind blow and the birds mock him. He recalled the moments when Wang Xiao You had faced him with a slightly shy expression, puffing out smoke rings.

  At this moment, Jay Chou's "Wā Jiě" (Dissolve) came from somewhere unknown. "Time took away the scenes behind you, time took away the lens without thinking back, memories not letting go... it seemed like I was still holding your hand with the warmth we once had..." Unconsciously, two lines of clear tears flowed down from this tough guy's face...

  Why? Why? Liu Yi looked up at the sky, why did you leave me? Why can't people who love each other be together? Why?

  Liu Yi ran frantically throughout the campus, wanting to search for news about Wang Xiao You, but... she didn't leave anything behind.

  Liu Yi goes to Wang Xiao You's class every day, hoping that one day she will come back. But... but since then, there has been no news, like a stone sinking into the ocean...
