Chapter 105

After getting off the car, the hands of the two people unconsciously held each other, warm and soft.

Its as if not long ago, Ji Yuns confession and Xu Lins inability to answer never existed. Or perhaps for Xu Lin, he has redefined his feelings for Ji Yun, feeling more guilty towards this girl and criticizing his own greed.

Ji Yun, on the other hand, only felt a bit; she sensed Xu Lins feelings for her, which was more important than any confession like I like you or I love you.

Xu Lin, I have a story to tell you, as they walked inside, Ji Yun seemed to recall the past.VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

Hmm, go ahead, Xu Lin replied.

Actually, I envy you.

Envy me?

Its you at the beginning of school.

You might think Im a charismatic figure, liked by everyone, with good grades and a good personality, but I dont actually want that.

Because it exhausts me. Its as if everything is pushed forward because Im being watched by many people, and Im afraid of making mistakes or saying the wrong things.

So I have to work harder, be even more outstanding, but all of this makes me tired, very tired.

I also want to be alone, to be quiet, which is why I noticed you.

So, is that why you cheered me on?

More or less. Not that I was particularly kind, caring for everyone, just that I had taken a few more glances at you.

No, the thing you said back then was more important than anything else, like an angel catching me before I fell into hell.

And in the past, I could only watch you from afar, but now I can hold your hand. Can I give you an answer now? Do you want it?

Xu Lin pondered for a moment and said these words, if the other party agreed, he decided, he would brave it once again for this girl!

But Ji Yun deliberately ignored the implication in his words, shaking her head.

What answer? I dont want to hear it now. The chance has passed, were just friends now, and thats fine.

Okay.

Although it wasnt explicitly stated, both of them relaxed a bit. At this moment, they also arrived at the south gate of the hospital.

But as he took a few steps inside, Ji Yun grabbed his hand.

Whats wrong?

Dont we need to buy something for the patient?

Hehe, it seems my wife is thoughtful~

Xu Lin! Stop saying strange things, Im going back.

Though Ji Yun said this, her hand still held onto his fingers tightly as she pulled him into the convenience store.

Dont buy fruits, okay? If its a bone injury, high-protein foods are better, like meat, eggs, and dairy.

We came together to visit senior Bai Xiaoxiaos father.

Bai Xiaoxiao? Her grades were good this time. She ranked second in the third grade exam, just one point behind the first.

I heard her family isnt doing well, but I didnt expect her father to be hospitalized. The school has a support plan recently; you can let Bai Xiaoxiao know.

Alright, thank you, Teacher. But why are you going to the hospital? Is something wrong?

Xu Lin remained composed, while Ji Yun stood by silently, like a little wife, without saying a word. Those who didnt understand might think he was bullying her.

Not at all, my cousin came here for an internship. She likes yogurt. So I stopped by and bought her some yogurt. Shes too busy to buy it. said Laoban, his serious face turning into a smile, making Xu Lin and Ji Yun exchange a glance. Laoban is usually so serious but now could he be a sis-con?

[T/N: Xu Lins classmates all call the head teacher Laoban behind his back.]

Well leave then, Xu Lin and Ji Yun also wanted to leave quickly. Although their parents knew about their little relationship, it felt weird if the teacher found out.

Yeah, the teacher also said last time, I am a very open-minded person. But you must maintain good grades, you still have a long time ahead.

Let me tell you something embarrassing, a few years ago when I graduated, I regretted having a fruitless relationship in high school, otherwise I could have been accepted to a better University.

Teacher, we understand, Xu Lin and Ji Yun nodded. Laoban was also doing it for their own good, but the next moment they suddenly realized something.

Teacher, you said you graduated a few years ago, how old are you?

Hmm? Im 29 this year, I graduated when I was 23.

Oh

Oh.

Xu Lin and Ji Yun nodded at each other, then exchanged a glance. The teacher really doesnt look like a 30-year-old, does he?

Although its impolite to say, he doesnt appear to be even 35. Hes dark and stout, with a weathered face; its really hard to believe hes only 29.

Ahem! You two go ahead, Ill go ahead, we wont be together on the way.

Okay. The two slightly embarrassed people also nodded and left the shop.

Zhao Gang sighed, wondering if he really looked that old.

He lifted a box of milk to the counter, took out his wallet, but before he could take out the money, the shopkeeper came over from afar.

The handsome young man and the pretty girl, which one is yours? They both look so beautiful standing together.

No no neither of them are mine.

Zhao Gang was completely dumbfounded but before he could fully process it, the shopkeeper delivered another blow.

Sorry, thats what I was saying. Youre so young, only about thirty-four or thirty-five, where would you get two such big children from, haha!

The shopkeeper praised him, but Zhao Gangs face twitched twice. You really know how to compliment people!
