Many, many times, he would suddenly disappear from my dreams, and I would wake up from my sleep.

When I realized it was a dream, I couldn't help but hug my blanket and laugh nonstop. After laughing, I felt inexplicably sad.

One day, he really will leave.

Soon, those days will be over.

It's such a pity I didn't meet him sooner.

I wish I could stop this fleeting time.

If I could, I would love to freeze this moment with him.

If I could, I would love to grow old with him.

With this wish in her heart, Su Mingxi closed her eyes and drifted into a dream where he was, savoring every moment with him...

Chapter 339 Her dream was put on hold!

After being comforted by Ling Ziqian, he took her home.

Shen Qiaoyan was in a state of utter confusion and had a headache.

She suddenly remembered something.

Once, Ling Ziqian and I stood at the school gate.

Because I drank the wrong bottled water. Because I met someone who likes me.

Therefore, I said the following to Ling Ziqian.

It's cruel to tell him yourself, to give that guy hope.

She also said that liking someone at this age is just a feeling of affection, a restlessness during adolescence.

Am I currently caught in the restlessness of adolescence?

After thinking for a long time, Shen Qiaoyan came to a conclusion.

The reason I'm so agitated is because Ling Ziqian doesn't have a girlfriend!

If he has a girlfriend, I will keep my distance from him and not get close to him!

Because he doesn't have a girlfriend, I couldn't help but contact him!

I'm so pathetic. Why do I feel so comfortable being with him?

He made himself feel like there was still a chance, which is cruel!

After lunch, Shen Qiaoyan rushed downstairs and ran towards Dou Xiaorong's house.

According to Shen Qiaoyan's observations, Dou Xiaorong likes Ling Ziqian. Su Mingxi likes him too, and Xue Lan even more so!

If Ling Ziqian had to choose a girlfriend from among them, Shen Qiaoyan was certain that he would choose Dou Xiaorong!

Because the two were childhood sweethearts, they have a deep affection for each other!

Shen Qiaoyan ran to Dou Xiaorong's house with only one purpose: she wanted to bring Ling Ziqian and Dou Xiaorong together, and then make herself stop having any illusions about Ling Ziqian!

Although being with Ling Ziqian was comfortable, Shen Qiaoyan couldn't stand the constant mental turmoil, the thought of someone else's life!

Let's cut the Gordian knot and sever the ties of affection with a wise sword!

Upon arriving at Dou Xiaorong's home, Dou Xiaorong was extremely surprised by Shen Qiaoyan's arrival.

Not wanting Dou Xiaorong's parents to hear what she was saying, Shen Qiaoyan blushed and casually pushed Dou Xiaorong into the room.

After closing the door, she looked at Dou Xiaorong earnestly and said, "Sister Xiaorong, do you know that Master likes you very much?"

When suddenly asked such a question, Dou Xiaorong became shy. She blushed and nodded slightly.

"You like Master too, don't you?" Shen Qiaoyan couldn't help but shout, "You two like each other, why don't you confess and get together!"

"Don't you know why?" Dou Xiaorong asked with a smile.

Shen Qiaoyan was somewhat stunned by the question. (The woman died on the spot.)

Previously, she felt like an outsider, but she could see very clearly that Dou Xiaorong liked Ling Ziqian, and Su Mingxi also liked Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian refrained from confessing his feelings to any one person in order to maintain a balance between the two groups.

Now that she's fallen for him herself, Shen Qiaoyan has completely forgotten that reason.

"If you're not going to date now, when are you going to?" Shen Qiaoyan ignored the reason and shouted loudly, "If you continue to be so calm, what will you do when other girls appear and steal Master away?"

Dou Xiaorong was both amused and exasperated when she heard Shen Qiaoyan say such a thing.

She pulled Shen Qiaoyan to sit down, looking at her curiously, "Why did you suddenly come over and say such things to me?"

Shen Qiaoyan lowered her head awkwardly, unable to come up with a decent reason.

"Let me speculate," Dou Xiaorong said with a smile to Shen Qiaoyan. "If Ziqian and I were to fall in love, what would you do? You would definitely keep your distance from him and wouldn't dare to hold his arm like that anymore."

"The fact that you're asking us to date means you want to keep your distance from him and leave him!"

Having been guessed correctly, Shen Qiaoyan felt even more embarrassed, burying her head deep in her chest, unable to lift it up.

If Shen Qiaoyan doesn't speak, then speak for yourself.

How could Dou Xiaorong not see that Shen Qiaoyan also liked Ling Ziqian?

"If we fall in love, you'll definitely be in pain. The college entrance exam is coming up soon, and we'll leave after we get into university. You and him will eventually be separated. Why not enjoy the rest of your time instead of making yourself suffer by wanting to see him fall in love?"

Because, you know, maybe one day I'll impulsively do something, and that would be terrible, embarrassing.

"The reason why Ziqian and I don't date is this: so that you can enjoy your time with him without restraint or constraint. If we were in a relationship, you would be in pain, right?"

Dou Xiaorong was smiling, while Shen Qiaoyan was filled with doubt.

Aren't you jealous?

"How could I not be jealous? But you have to give him space. I've talked to you about this before. Space, do you understand?"

Shen Qiaoyan nodded. "What if one day he chooses someone else?"

Dou Xiaorong waved her hand helplessly, "What can I do? I'm bound to be heartbroken, but he doesn't choose me, so what else can I do?"

"I really don't understand your views on love!" Shen Qiaoyan collapsed onto the bed in anguish.

"Hehe, Qiaoyan, haven't you noticed? We're the same kind of people!"

"Ok?"

"You like Ziqian too, right? You clearly like him, yet you came here and encouraged me to date him!"

Shen Qiaoyan blushed. "My feelings for him aren't romantic. It's just the kind of liking between friends, a mere attraction."

Dou Xiaorong smiled sweetly, "No matter what, if you like someone, you like them!"

The conversation with Dou Xiaorong gradually calmed Shen Qiaoyan down.

They clearly liked each other, but neither of them said it out loud.

It might be painful if I don't say it out loud.

But what good will it do to say it out loud? No one can guarantee that they will grow old together.

Because we are all still young and have a long future ahead of us, the price of expressing our feelings is too high.

Let's leave all this to the future and let our mature selves handle it.

That's fine for now!

After a conversation, both Shen Qiaoyan and Dou Xiaorong felt a sense of new understanding.

For Shen Qiaoyan, it was like having a dream and then waking up, making reality clearer.

After saying goodbye to Dou Xiaorong, she went home.

I met Ling Ziqian again in the afternoon. She had returned to her former lively, cheerful, and carefree personality.

I like something, but I don't try to win it over; instead, I cherish it.

Dou Xiaorong had long seen through this situation, so when her family moved away, she not only didn't object, but actually strongly supported it.

Furthermore, she encouraged Ling Ziqian and Su Mingxi to create beautiful memories for the two of them.

What if, in the future, Ling Ziqian doesn't choose him?

Dou Xiaorong had also thought about this problem, and she chose to accept her fate!

At least for now, she knows perfectly well that Ling Ziqian likes her!

Because their home was far from the cake shop, it was not easy for the two of them to meet.

But every time we meet, it feels like a reunion after a short separation.

Occasionally, she would go to the cake shop, go upstairs to his room, and sneak up on him early in the morning.

Ling Ziqian would also come over on his own initiative.

Although he became very proactive, every time he came over, it was under the guise of delivering a cake.

He always behaved properly and didn't do anything reckless.

It seems that every time, I'm the one who acts recklessly, hugging him and kissing him wildly.

It was only then that he took the initiative.

It feels like we're secretly in love.

He felt like a thief, deceiving Su Mingxi and the others, gaining both love and friendship.

Perhaps it was because he felt like a thief, and because of this guilt, he had a crazy, yet also justifiable, thought.

If the country's law allowed polygamy, wouldn't that be wonderful? Everyone could marry him, and there wouldn't be this kind of trouble!

Time passed day by day.

During the busy period of preparing for the college entrance examination, I did all kinds of questions every day, which left me physically and mentally exhausted.

The occasional time spent with Ling Ziqian felt like passing through paradise, so comfortable that Dou Xiaorong didn't want to leave.

How wonderful it would be if we could get into the same university, live together there, and enjoy that kind of life every day!

I'm not the kind of person with strong desires; I just want to be with the person I like.
