Chapter 187 Ling Xiao's Confession

"Do you remember that we used to talk about anime often?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.

"Well, we did chat often in the past, but Lao Liu and you are really close to the 2D world. I didn't expect that a winner in campus life like you would actually like 2D paper people. I guess you and Lao Liu have the most deceptive images in school."

Xia Shou couldn't help but smile. It was indeed a special memory.

In fact, he and Ling Xiao were not very familiar with each other at that time. It was mainly because Ling Xiao often talked to Liu Yilong about anime, so he often got involved in their conversations. He always thought that Ling Xiao deliberately studied anime in order to get close to Liu Yilong, and he still thinks so now.

That was an ordinary campus life with nothing worth remembering at all. It was nothing compared to the life and death experiences after traveling through time. Who could have thought that the three of them would have this kind of relationship now? It was almost like the Three Heroes of Peach Garden.

"Do you know that there were actually quite a few girls in your class who paid attention to you at that time?"

"Oh, you said it, is it because of Lao Liu? If a handsome and academic master like him is friends with me, other people would indeed find it strange. After all, my grades are average and I don't have any special skills. In fact, I am also very confused. Why is Lao Liu so popular but mainly hangs out with me? Sometimes I really feel like my butt is in danger." Xia Shou joked.

"Didn't Li Guangliang get bullied when he first entered school? You spoke up for him and got beaten up, remember?"

"Why bring this up?" Xia Shou felt a little embarrassed. He actually thought he could defeat that group of people at that time, but it turned out that two fists were no match for four hands.

"Why should you help him? He is such a coward. When you were beaten, he didn't even fight back. Then, he got together with the same group of people who bullied him the next semester."

Xia Shou was silent for a while: "My parents taught me well."

Xia Shou has already forgotten why he spoke up for the other party at that time. Looking back, I can only blame it on impulse.

"And that time, when Li Xianyu fainted during physical education class, why did you give her artificial respiration?"

"first aid."

"Isn't that taking advantage of someone? Li Xianyu is pretty good looking."

"She had stopped breathing at the time. Also, don't think I didn't know that you were all scared at the time. Now that nothing has happened, you accuse me of trying to take advantage of me."

Xia Shouzei was speechless. He actually didn't want to be a hero at that time. Everyone knows how to perform artificial respiration, but not everyone has the courage to actually do it.

Ling Xiao smiled slightly and nodded: "Li Xianyu thanked you afterwards and even treated you to a meal."

"Well, luckily she treated me to a meal, otherwise I would have been accused of taking advantage. Later, when someone said I was taking advantage, I said that she treated me to a meal and thanked me, and you guys couldn't seize the opportunity and were just jealous of me."

Recalling those interesting trivialities, Xia Shou smiled. What a peaceful time.

"So why don't you seize the opportunity? It's a rare opportunity for a girl to be interested in you, can you not sense it?"

"I know what she said to you. It was probably that I didn't react at all and she didn't like her. But in fact, she gave up on me because she thought I was boring." Xia Shou said calmly.

Ling Xiao glanced at Xia Shou's profile and asked, "Did you think so at the time?"

"Well... just like I have a crush on many female classmates, but I don't really know them."

"It's a bit disgusting to be so precocious, and so self-righteous." Ling Xiao stuck out his tongue.

"Where are you self-righteous?"

"You think you know a lot about love, you have a clear mind and act like a wise man who doesn't fall in love. You also say that no one really likes you, but in fact, your perception is extremely poor, no different from that of a piece of wood. Even if someone really likes you, you can't feel it." Ling Xiao said in one breath.

Xia Shou smiled and sighed: "It's great, we traveled through time together, and we can still talk about such boring things at this time."

Unconsciously, the two walked to the woods, and Ling Xiao stopped. "You finally know, you are really stupid, I like you, I have always liked you." Ling Xiao said.

Xia Shou paused, his pupils dilated, he turned around and looked at the other person in surprise.

When Xia Shou saw Ling Xiao's calm and faint smile, his heart was shocked - was she serious?

In an instant, General Xia went over everything about Ling Xiao in his mind and filtered out all the guesses he had about Ling Xiao. He always thought that Ling Xiao liked Liu Yilong at the beginning, but after traveling through time and experiencing so much together, she no longer liked Liu Yilong and became a buddy-like relationship with them.

He felt that his judgment should not be wrong, but when he saw Ling Xiao's expression, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be wrong.

Ling Xiao really likes me, maybe it started from a very early time.

"I've been observing you the whole time, even when I was chatting with Lao Liu. I don't really like anime, but I can't do anything about it."

"Xia Shou, I know very well what you really are like, and I know what you are thinking."

"You don't care about other people's opinions and only make decisions based on your own inner thoughts. Although you will consider the consequences, as long as the loss is within your acceptable range, you will do it even if it will cause trouble."

"You don't like to go against your inner thoughts. In fact, many times, you have the opportunity to date those girls, right? You clearly know that they will like you if you pretend to be a certain way, but you must show your true self immediately, exposing all the insignificant shortcomings first, which scares them away."

"You said that no one likes you, but actually, ordinary love doesn't count as love in your eyes, right? ...Your standard for defining love is too high."

Ling Xiao gave Xia Shou a bitter smile.

Xia Shou opened his mouth wide, his expression of shock almost described as horror. His mind went blank and he didn't know what to say.

Is that right?

Is he such a person?

wrong!

Should I say that this is the kind of person I am in Ling Xiao's eyes?

Ling Xiao smoothed his hair, and his smooth face reflected colorful dark light in the light of the exploding fireworks.

“You’re really annoying in these aspects… But we won’t remember anything after we leave here, so let’s just leave it at that.

I still want to live with you, so I decided that tomorrow... tomorrow I will..."

Ling Xiao bit his lip, tears rolling down his cheeks: "Xia Shou, this is really disgusting! I feel so sick just thinking about that!"

"It's okay, don't force yourself." Xia Shou stepped forward and wanted to hug her gently, but he paused for a moment and finally reached out and touched her head.

Seeing Ling Xiao crying, even the shock of being confessed to disappeared.

Calmness regained control of his mind, and he began to think about how to break the impasse again.

The next second, Ling Xiao rushed over with open arms and hugged him tightly.

"At least...at least the first time, I think it will be with you." Ling Xiao said.
