This remark probably hit her where it hurt. Perhaps I was right. She flew into a rage and lunged at me, reaching out to pull my hair.

But then again, I had hung out with boys since I was young. I was not afraid of fighting!

She yanked my hair and I punched her squarely in the face.

When the two girls behind her saw this, they rushed forward too. The three of them started to attack me.

However, I didn’t back out at all. I continued to fight with them while they tore at my clothes. At that moment, I heard footsteps approaching. A pair of hands separated us!

. 

The next moment, I saw Su Qi glaring at them angrily, shielding me behind him.

“What are you doing?!”

“Su Qi! Why are you here?”

When the girl saw this, she looked aggrieved and questioned him, “Don’t tell me you really like her?! Su Qi! I’m your girlfriend!”

Su Qi turned back and gave me a quick glance. Then he turned around, and said in an icy tone, “Used to be, but not anymore.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Exactly what I said. Don’t you understand?”

“Su Qi!!”

Tears flowed out of her eyes and she glared at me fiercely before looking back at him. “So you’re breaking up with me because of her, right?”

Su Qi replied, “You were the one who came hankering after me in tears. I saw how pitiful you were, so I agreed. It was just a perfunctory thing. You don’t have to take it seriously.”

These words were simply heartbreaking for a girl who was still in her adolescence and had innocent fantasies about love.

“You’re breaking up with me?!” She pointed at me. “For her?”

“Yuan Jing, stop pestering me. Don’t you know that your actions are disgusting?”

He added with a warning, “Also, I’m warning you, you’re not to find trouble with her again!”

Hearing this, Yuan Jing clenched her fists and wiped away her tears. She turned around and ran away.

The two girls behind her ran after her in a panic. Gradually, the three of them disappeared into the distance.

I immediately shook his hand off, looking awkward. “Don’t touch me, okay? You make it look like we’re so close.”

Su Qi turned around and looked at me, but he was smiling.

“Yin Xiachun!”

“…”

“I remember your name.”

Su Qi came closer towards me, his expression gentle to the point that it was completely unfamiliar. “Let’s date! Will you be my girlfriend?”

“Why should I be your girlfriend?”

“Because I like you.”

…

I didn’t understand why it seemed so easy for him to say the words “I like you” out loud.

It was so easy that it made me think that his kind of “like” was casual and carried no weight.

I pretended not to hear and turned to leave.

He caught up with me and walked alongside me. He even reached out and took my school bag from me, as if he was offering me all his attention.

I reached for it to take it back, but he dodged and smiled brightly. “The satchel is so heavy, I’ll carry it for you.”

“I don’t need your generosity!”

I tried to snatch it back again, but he grabbed my hand and held it tightly. Then, he smiled brightly at me.

I shook his hand off like I had been scorched by a hot potato.

He touched my hand, obviously, but it was my face that turned red as if it was burning.

“It’s getting late,” I said, turning my head away. “I need to get home.”

He leaned in immediately and offered, “I’ll take you home.”

I said, “Don’t you follow me.”
