Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 427 Ivy's Past
In fact, Xu Tao knew very well that confessing his feelings at this time would be tantamount to courting death.

He regretted it as soon as he said it.

Even Xu Tao, who is a complete novice in love, understands that it is a pipe dream to think that you can become boyfriend and girlfriend with someone just because you know each other's names.

Especially since the person she confessed to was every boy's dream girl.

Faced with the textbook rejection, Xu Tao's heart skipped a beat. A sense of relief, somewhat expected, mixed with a huge amount of sadness churning within him.

Although Yi Wenna had never paid attention to him, it was only natural that her confession would be rejected.

But taking it for granted doesn't mean you won't be sad.

Just like knowing that someone important will eventually leave, but when they actually leave, you will still feel sad and heartbroken.

Xu Tao's eyes immediately reddened, and his voice became hoarse: "...I understand."

He slowly put the doll away and stared silently at the service center lobby.

"...Can you tell me who you like?"

After a long silence, Xu Tao asked again.

There's no particular reason; I just want to understand why I lost.

"Brother, we're complete strangers, okay? Why are you acting like you confessed your feelings to me and we'd suddenly be best friends?"

Yi Wenna's eye twitched: "Why should I tell you?"

Xu Tao fell silent again.

Yes, in the other person's eyes, I am just a random classmate, not even a regular friend. All my feelings are just wishful thinking in my mind.

Given this situation, what right do I have to ask this question?

Having figured it out, Xu Tao didn't press further, but suddenly stood up.

This gave Yi Wenna a huge fright.

"You...what do you want to do?"

Yi Wenna gripped her phone tightly and asked nervously.

"...It's nothing, I'm going to find Chen Zili, you guys have fun."

Seeing the wariness in Yi Wenna's eyes, Xu Tao felt even more anxious.

He took out his phone and contacted Chen Zili, then walked straight toward the service center entrance.

Seeing this, Chen Zili, who was hiding not far away with Ai Liang and the others, waved his phone helplessly at Ai Liang and then caught up with Xu Tao.

"So... I guess I won't ask anymore. Judging from your expression, you've probably been rejected."

Chen Zili walked up to Xu Tao and said.

"Hmm... she said she already has someone she likes."

At this point, Xu Tao couldn't help but glance back at Yi Wenna.

At this moment, Yi Wenna was all smiles, waving excitedly in the direction of Ai Liang and Ye Qing, a stark contrast to her attitude when she was sitting with him.

"You already have someone you like. That's a classic way to reject someone."

Chen Zili stroked his chin: "Did Yi Wenna tell you who she likes?"

"How could she possibly tell a regular classmate like me something like this?"

Xu Tao looked at Chen Zili with resentment.

However, when he turned to look at Yi Wenna again, he changed the subject: "But I guess it's Ai Liang. Apart from him, Yi Wenna has never taken the initiative to contact any other boys."

Looking at Yi Wenna, who was all smiles in front of Ai Liang (from Xu Tao's perspective), Xu Tao felt a pang of sadness.

If it were someone else, Xu Tao might have been jealous.

But if Yi Wenna likes Ai Liang, he can't muster even a hint of competitive spirit, except for feeling envious.

The gap between the two was so large that it discouraged anyone from even thinking about catching up.

Just as an ordinary science student wouldn't follow in the footsteps of the world's top scientists.

Chen Zili recalled the way Yi Wenna usually looked at Ai Liang.

That burning gaze, as if it wanted to give Ai Liang an eighth-degree burn on the back (Chen Zili's perspective), really didn't hide the intentions of the person in the gaze at all.

Chen Zili nodded: "Ai Liang... that does sound a bit like her, but Ye Qing likes Ai Liang too, right? How do these two rivals manage to get along peacefully?"

"How would I know? Maybe being handsome can win you both over."

Xu Tao waved his hand: "Don't talk to me about these things. I just want to calm down right now."

Having just been rejected by his crush, discussing how she tries to please others is too cruel and hurtful for this simp.

Chen Zili raised his hand and patted Xu Tao on the shoulder: "Sigh, my condolences."

………………

Ai Liang, on the other side, listened to Chen Zili and Xu Tao's conversation and her face darkened.

Does Evanna like me?

Which eye of yours saw that?

To be able to mistake murderous intent for love, you two are truly two little geniuses.

Ye Qing nudged Ai Liang's arm with her elbow: "Why do you suddenly seem to be in a bad mood?"

"It's nothing." Ai Liang quickly composed herself.

"Oh, all right."

Seeing that Ai Liang was alright, Ye Qing turned her gaze to Yi Wenna, who was waving in their direction from afar: "Sigh, actually, Silly Na wasn't like this before."

Ai Liang said casually, "I don't care about her past..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Qing pinched him: "You know you're going to kill the conversation like this?"

Ai Liang immediately shut her mouth. She had only said that because she had said it so many times before when she was dealing with Yang Xingyue that it just came out naturally.

Also, Ai Liang really doesn't care about Yi Wenna's past.

Who could like someone who constantly sees themselves as a rival in love?

However, now that his mental state is gradually returning to normal, he should change his way of speaking.

Ai Liang made up her mind in secret.

Seeing Ai Liang's attentive expression, Ye Qing nodded in satisfaction: "Actually, Shana was frightened by a crazy boy in junior high school, and her attachment to me started from that time."

"Oh."

Ai Liang responded, signaling Ye Qing to continue.

"At first glance, the boy seemed like an honest person, and Shana even thought he was a pretty good guy."

It wasn't until later that we discovered that the guy was a complete stalker. He had even secretly followed Shana to her apartment and waited outside her door in the middle of the night.

From then on, whenever Shana went to school as a day student, her father would arrange for a nanny and bodyguard, which was the main reason Shana lived at school during high school.

Looking at Yi Wenna's smiling face not far away, Ye Qing sighed: "It's quite scary to think about. I happened to be staying at Yi Wenna's house that night and noticed some noise outside the door. If Yi Wenna had waited for herself to find out, I'm afraid..."

Faced with Ye Qing's physical prowess, capable of wielding dumbbells like diabolo, most people would be forced to kneel before her.

It's understandable that Yi Wenna would fall for Ye Qing, who possesses incredible fighting skills and rescued her from a stalker, due to her own insecurity.

"That boy should have been dealt with by now."

Ai Liang followed the direction of the conversation and asked.

"Don't talk like you've killed someone, okay?"

Ye Qing rolled her eyes at Ai Liang: "That person was expelled from school later, and probably moved to another city through the efforts of Sha Na's father."
