Chapter 104 Missed

  Ouyang Luo really didn't kiss her? I suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

  "Hey, what are you smiling at?" Viya nudged me on the shoulder.

  "Nothing... nothing at all!"

  Wei'er gave me a super big white eye, turned around and returned to her own seat, but she suddenly turned around again and said, "Xiao Yue, what are you thinking in your heart?" Wei'er looked at me with an impatient expression.

  "What? How can you think?"

  "You're really getting on my nerves, Your Majesty is not in a hurry, but you're driving me, your eunuch, crazy! What rotten metaphor, anyway what do you plan to do?" Viya looked at me with a serious expression.

  "What, what to do?" As soon as I finished saying this sentence, it seemed like I saw a ball of fire burning on Vi's head. I looked at her and she was staring at me in anger. She spoke unclearly, how would I know what she was saying?

  Wei'er looked at me with a "I give up" expression, "Dongfang Yue, I admit defeat. But I want to ask you, now that you and Gu Yuetian have broken up, don't you plan on going back to Ou Yang Luo?"

  Ouyang Luo? Want to come back? I suddenly stood up from the seat, if I didn't remember wrong, Yezi said they would leave today yesterday? Are they gone now?

  Wei'er was startled by my action, covering her chest with both hands, and said: "What's wrong with you?"

  What's wrong with me? Ah, what's wrong with me? Ouyang Luo and Xia Xintong are going to get engaged, now they might have left already. Thinking of this, I smiled bitterly and sat back in my original position. Isn't this result good enough? But why does my heart still hurt so much when I think of this?

  Vera was just about to say something to me when a noise came from outside the corridor, and I also heard a whistle. Who's coming?

  "There's something going on, I'll go take a look!" Wei'er said, and with a swift movement, she rushed out of the door. I was also curious, so I looked out from the window, but there were too many people. The boys in our class were all crowded at the windowsill, whistling loudly to get "that person's" attention!

  "Which school are you from?"

  "Oh, what a lovely girl! I like her, I like her!"

  "Dongfang Yue, someone is looking for you!" I don't know who shouted. I took a glance around and found that I was the only one sitting in my seat in the whole class. I looked towards the door,

  I only saw the classmates who were just squeezed at the door suddenly gave way to a path, and everyone stood on both sides. A person walked in from outside, and when I saw her, I was stunned. She wore black tight pants, which made her legs look so slender. She wore a white sweater with a small jacket over it, which showed off her figure even more. Her hair was this year's popular shoulder-length short hair, with big black eyes and a fair face that looked extremely tender. Was she Xia Xintong? Yesterday, she still had long hair like me, why did it suddenly become short today? And shouldn't she be on the plane now?

  "Xiao Yue, can I talk to you?" she said. Her voice was very pleasant.

  Looking for me? What's up? I looked at her in confusion and nodded. She smiled at me.

  I walked out of the classroom with her, all the way I was walking behind her, looking at her back, I didn't understand why yesterday's her and today's her would have such a big difference. Suddenly I remembered the scene in the corridor yesterday, she must have misunderstood... I don't know what she will think of me. My heart couldn't help but tense up.

  It snowed in the morning, and the campus was a vast expanse of white. My feet made crunching sounds as I walked on the snowy ground. Xia Xintong and I didn't say a word to each other all the way until we arrived at the second floor of the school cafeteria, where Wei'er told us it's a popular spot for couples. It was currently between classes, and indeed there were pairs of young boys and girls sitting together chatting.

  I sat down with Xia Xintong in a window seat, and before long, the waiter brought over two cups of fragrant coffee. Xia Xintong still hadn't said a word, which made me feel uneasy. If she had come to ask me about what happened yesterday, why wasn't she saying anything? Was I supposed to be the one to break the silence?

  I took a deep breath and said, "Xia Xintong, actually yesterday's incident you might have misunderstood, I and he really didn't have anything going on, in fact we weren't kissing... but rather..." How did it sound like I was making things worse? "In short, I apologize to you, it was all my fault, please don't blame Ouyang Luo!"

  "Are you in love with Luo Ge?" Xia Xintong suddenly asked. As expected, she had misunderstood, and I quickly explained, "Actually, yesterday wasn't what you thought it was, we..."

  "Gege loves you very much!" She said before I could even finish speaking.

  "Huh?" I looked at Xia Xintong sitting across from me in surprise, a hint of sadness floating on her face, her black eyes as clear as a spring, making one feel an urge to pity her. Even bad people wouldn't bear to hurt her when they saw her eyes.

  Xia Xintong's hands were clasped together on the table in front of her chest, looking at me and saying: "Do you know? A year ago in Singapore, I met Luo Gege at a banquet. He didn't like to talk, didn't like to smile, and was always alone. But I was drawn to him, my eyes couldn't move away from his body, I think that's what they call love at first sight." Xia Xintong smiled faintly as she spoke, continuing: "After that day, I often went to his house with Father, but every time we didn't exchange a word, just silently staring at him. At the time, I was very curious about him, what kind of person is he? Why doesn't he like to talk? Why have I never seen him smile? Why does he always wear that maple leaf-shaped earring on his left ear?"

  Is it like this every day since Ouyang went to Singapore? Not liking to talk? Not loving to smile? Why is that? Such days must be very difficult, thinking of this, my heart tightened a bit...

  Xia Xintong continued: "Finally one day I plucked up the courage to stand beside him and talk to him. You can't imagine how thrilled I was at that time! But later on, I discovered that he really just treated me like a little sister, because I knew that he deeply loved someone else, maybe because he had been hurt before, that's why he didn't smile and didn't like talking!"

  The aroma of coffee wafts between us, yet we have no intention of drinking it... My heart aches...

  "I remember half a year ago, that day my brother was not at home, I curiously went to his room and found a photo. The photo was of a girl wearing the same style maple leaf bracelet as my brother, with long black hair and wearing a sky blue dress, smiling brightly in the photo. At that time, I thought, is this the girl my brother likes? Does he like girls like this? That day after going home, I asked a stylist to change my appearance to be similar to the one in the photo, I even went to order a bracelet that was similar to the one in the photo." Xia Xintong said quietly.

  I stared at her in shock, knowing that the photo she was talking about was me. Did Ouyang Luo take it to Singapore? I touched the bracelet on my wrist, and a chill ran down my spine.

  "Although the transformed me is a stranger to myself, I don't regret it because Luo Ge agreed to be my girlfriend and we've been together for half a year. I know she just treats me as another person, but I really don't regret it!"

  Xia Xintong really loves Ouyang Luo. So, did Ouyang Luo only agree to be with her because of me? I looked at Xia Xintong, her hair casually leaning against her ear, and didn't regret why she cut it off. I asked in confusion: "Why did you cut your hair short?"

  She didn't answer my question, and continued: "Yesterday was the day that Uncle Ou Yang came back to discuss business, but suddenly Brother Luo said he wanted to go with him. At that time, I felt like he was going to leave me. Although he told me it would only be for one day, I still asked to follow him. When we bumped into each other, I recognized you at first glance, because you were the girl in the photo."

  Xia Xintong's tears flowed out, and her voice choked: "Xiao Yue, I really envy you, even jealous. I'm thinking, if my face is like yours, will Luo Gege like me too?"

  "Xia Xintong..." I wanted to say something, but couldn't open my mouth. Looking at her like that really pains the heart.

  "Do you know why I cut my hair? It's because I want to be myself again, and not live in your shadow anymore..." Xia Xintong said, wiping away tears, forcing a faint smile on her face. My heart felt like it had been hit by something heavy, sending waves of pain...

  After coming down from the second floor coffee shop, I quickly ran out of the campus, tears streaming down my face, and repeated in my mind what Xia Xintong had just said:

  Xiao Yue, I've given up. I'm giving up on Luo Gege. Yesterday when he found me, it was the first time I saw him cry. Xiao Yue, Luo Gege loves you so much, really loves you. I know you love him too, right? I don't want to see him sad like that, it would hurt me too. I hope he can be happy, but only you can bring happiness to him! Luo Gege is leaving soon, go find him quickly!

  Ouyang Luo, this time I won't escape again, I want to tell you in person, I love you!

  I hailed a car and went straight to Ouyang's house. He Yini was very happy to see me, "Miss Yue, it's been a long time since you've come!"

  I grasped Aunt He's hand and asked breathlessly: "Aunt He, where is Ouyang Luo? Where is he? Tell me quickly!"

  Auntie Hong was obviously startled by my actions, "Young Master and Mr. have gone to the airport, Yezi Miss and others went to see them off, maybe they're already on the plane now!"

  Gone? Did we miss it? I rushed out of the door, running desperately forward, tears blurring my vision. Ouyang Luo, this time, please wait for me, you must.
