Chapter 70: Confession Two
I've never heard anything more moving than those four words "I like you" in my entire life, let alone from Li Yang's mouth.
"Why?" I asked, always feeling it's unreal.
"Because I found myself being slowly drawn to you." He reached out his hand to help me tidy up the messy hair in front of my forehead, smiling and saying: "And I want to help wipe away the loneliness between your eyebrows, really want to, really want to."
"Have you said this to other girls too? I don't need your sympathy, pity or even mercy." I bit my lip, trying to suppress the wild joy deep within me, while still using a cold and mocking tone to try and hurt Lei Yang, wanting him to know it's impossible.
I knew it, I and Li Yang are impossible from the start, I have always known.
"Don't refuse hastily." Li Yang just smiled: "You, like a little hedgehog. I didn't mean anything else, and I've never said this kind of thing to any other girl. I won't sympathize with you or pity you, because you don't need it, right? I won't deny that I'm being impulsive at the moment, but Gu Qian, which emotion doesn't start from a momentary impulse?"
"He said: 'I'll give you time, I'll start pursuing you, little by little getting closer to you, you don't need to do anything, I'm here.'"
I am here.
At that time, he also said so.
I've always felt that having me is more touching than loving you.
"Whatever you want." I admit that I was moved, and I couldn't help but want to agree with him immediately, telling him that in fact I liked him, even earlier and longer than he liked me. But I couldn't, I couldn't because of what happened to Li Yang, whom I liked so much, making it even more impossible for me to agree with him.
What a ridiculous thing, the boy I like confessed to me, but I couldn't agree, and instead had to push him away.
"I'll send you back." Li Yang's hand slid down my arm and grasped mine, then slowly, our fingers intertwined.
His hands were still a bit cold, and my nose was sour, almost crying out. In order not to let Li Yang discover the fluctuations in my emotions, I could only lower my head, but unconsciously grasped those hands tightly.
I clearly know it's wrong, but I just can't help myself. If I let go of Li Yang's hand, I will definitely regret it.
That night, I walked back to school with Li Yang step by step. He held my hand from behind, and I looked at his thin figure under the moonlight, laughing like a fool in a place where he couldn't see me.
He sent me back to the dormitory, watching me go upstairs and smiling at me with a wave of his hand.
I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the building, I saw Ning Jing. She was also startled when she saw me, then she smiled and walked forward to see Li Yang standing there, but she didn't say anything.
"Calm down, we are still the best friends, inseparable iron quadrangle." I hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped forward to hold her hand, saying word by word: "I was wrong." It's still a bit humiliating, but as long as I think of Li Yang, I become fearless.
Ning Jing nodded and said, "I was wrong too, I didn't understand you, sorry Ah Qian." She took off her coat and put it on me, saying sincerely, "It's so cold outside, go ahead. Su Su and Xiao Luo are both waiting for you."
"I said: 'Good.'"
I couldn't help but look towards the door again, and Li Yang's figure was still standing there. He seemed to have noticed my gaze too, and he waved at me with a smile that was clean and beautiful.
I think it's better this way.
If Li Yang can always smile like this, I think I am willing to do anything.
