At that time, when school registration started, she so wished to buy the same bus ticket as him. Naively, she bought the ticket and excitedly ran to his house, wanting him to take the same bus with her.
But when she got to his house, she found out that a boy like Wubai, with such a good family background, wouldn’t even take a bus, or even a plane. They always traveled back and forth by private jet, something she couldn’t possibly compete with!
Little Ai always felt she was just a wildflower by the roadside, and having a crush on Wubai was like a toad dreaming of eating swan meat. Even many girls mocked her, saying she was daydreaming, that a rich second generation boy like Wubai could never be interested in an orphan like her!
But she was determined to go against all odds and fight for it.
In college, she followed him every day. At that time, many girls in the dormitory were in relationships and, on weekends, they would go out in couples to have fun. In the water room, many girls didn’t have to carry their own thermos; there were boys carrying it for them. Even in the library, there were many couples. It made her feel particularly anxious.
However, she wasn’t without suitors, but none of them were Wubai!
Afraid that she might look fickle in Wubai’s eyes, she never accepted any dates from those boys who pursued her and always kept her distance.
But she was really envious of those roommates who were indulging in romance.
One day, on a whim, she didn’t sleep the entire night and wrote a long love letter to Wubai, pouring out how she had a crush on him since junior high, and how she just wanted to be his girlfriend all these years. The letter was sprawling, five thousand words long.
With almost a do-or-die mindset, she secretly slipped the letter into his book.
A whole week passed without any response, like the letter had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Those seven days felt like years to her, filled with tears. She can still remember that feeling now — the heartache and disappointment...
On the eighth day, she remembered it was snowing lightly. She returned to the dormitory entrance after her part-time job, and there was Wubai standing at her dorm door, wearing a black coat that looked very nice. She didn’t know the brand, and even thought his sweater was lovely, an off-white color. She remembered so vividly, especially the red scarf around his neck, which she heard was personally knitted by his mom. The knitting wasn’t great, but he wore it with flair; it stood out strikingly around his neck.
At that moment she was completely stunned, standing five meters away, stopping in her tracks, not daring to approach.
He looked like a beautiful painting, while she was afraid that in her second-hand market down jacket, she’d ruin his aesthetic if she stepped forward!
They just stood there, neither of them moving for a long time.
Finally, Wubai walked up to her, took off his scarf and wrapped it around her neck, pinched her nose. She remembered how charming his smile was; it made her heart drunk!
He said, "Have you gone silly??"
She remembered nodding stupidly, and then Wubai laughed and said, "I’ve been waiting for you for twenty minutes, where did you go? Your nose is red from the cold, like a little red-nosed reindeer."
"Did you want something from me?" Little Ai remembered that was the first thing she said, and after saying it, she wished she could bite her own finger. She thought the question was so stupid, he must be laughing at her in his heart!
But there was no other way, she was so nervous, her brain wasn’t working properly.
Everyone says women have zero IQ when they’re in love. At that time, she indeed felt her IQ must be zero; otherwise, how could she have asked such a silly question?
