Mu Yi looked at the boy in front of her, her cheeks slightly flushed.
The boy smiled, revealing his handsome teeth, and said, "Mu Yi, I like you."
Mu Yi gripped the strap of her crossbody bag, her face turning bright red, the blush spreading to her ears.
Mu Yi opened her mouth, shyly stammering, "I...I..." She hesitated for a
long time before falling silent.
"Mu Yi, don't be nervous. I don't mean anything by it, I just like you and want you to be my girlfriend."
The boy looked at this easily embarrassed girl and became flustered.
The girl lowered her head, stammering, "An Xiaolei, I..."
"Please don't reject me, okay?!" An Xiaolei
frowned slightly. Mu Yi nodded gently.
An Xiaolei smiled and extended her hand.
Mu Yi looked up and slowly extended her hand.
A large hand grasped a small hand, radiating warmth in the sunlight.
The impression left was hard to erase.
A girl with a ponytail screamed, "Ah—!" "What's wrong? What's wrong? Er?"
Another girl chimed in, supporting the girl who screamed, "Er."
"Um, um, Mu Yi and An Xiaolei, he...he...they're dating..."
"Ah—!" Another scream.
The girl supporting Er fainted.
"What! What? Wake up..." Er shook her vigorously.
This attracted a crowd of classmates.
"Hey, don't get excited.
" "Ah—!" Another scream.
She opened her eyes and said quietly, "My Prince Charming—, that shy little princess—"
"Hey! Are you alright?!" Er shook her desperately.
"I'm fine." She said and fell to the ground again.
Er looked at the bewildered classmates and said, "Shy Mu Yi agreed to be An Xiaolei's girlfriend, and now he's An Xiaolei's girlfriend!!!"
"Ah?!!" The classmates exclaimed and looked out the window together.
"Impossible! Mu Yi is so shy, she blushes even when she talks to a boy.
How could she possibly agree to An Xiaolei's request? Besides, the boys who dated Mu Yi before were just playing with her. How could she be so naive?"
The classmates' eyes turned to the speaker again.
"That's called being innocent!"
retorted the other student. "She was deceived by boys and still defended their reputations. Where can you find such an innocent, kind, and pure girl in this world?"
"I wonder if An Xiaolei is just playing around too?!"
The speaker said fiercely, while the other student raised their hands in surrender.
It turned out that Mu Yi was indeed an innocent and kind girl.
Accustomed to everything, yet no longer accustomed,
An Xiaolei always held Mu Yi's hand as they walked, accompanying her to wherever she wanted to go.
However, Mu Yi was so easily embarrassed, always saying "whatever."
The location for their dates was always decided by An Xiaolei.
When An Xiaolei ate with Mu Yi, she always prepared everything for her first, and Mu Yi wasn't picky about food, eating whatever she ordered.
When speaking to An Xiaolei, she would slowly finish each sentence.
An Xiaolei had rarely seen Mu Yi smile.
So An Xiaolei always told jokes to make her laugh.
However, Mu Yi only slightly raised the corners of his lips, forcing a smile.
The most genuine smile Mu Yi ever gave An Xiaolei was when she breathlessly brought him a melted ice cream.
Mu Yi suddenly laughed and said fluently, "Silly girl, it's all melted, how am I supposed to eat it?"
Seeing her laugh, he laughed too: "You look so beautiful when you smile."
Mu Yi's cheeks flushed slightly, and
An Xiaolei fed him the ice cream spoonful by spoonful.
Sitting on the stone bench under the willow tree, An Xiaolei ruffled Mu Yi's hair and asked with a smile, "Why are you so easily embarrassed?"
Mu Yi looked at the lake and gently shook his head.
Mu Yi rarely spoke, almost silent.
An Xiaolei looked at the lake and said, "Why do your boyfriends like you?"
Mu Yi's eyes dimmed. "I don't know."
An Xiaolei put her arm around Mu Yi's shoulder and said, "Silly girl, you're too kind. They lied to you, and you still defend them."
"You're too naive, which makes it easy for them to get close to you,"
Mu Yi said with a faint "Oh."
An Xiaolei felt increasingly sorry for her. Mu Yi had no demands and no faults.
She obediently listened to everything An Xiaolei arranged for her.
If Mu Yi didn't like something, she would say, "I don't want this, okay? Xiaolei, I don't like it."
Her tone was almost pleading, making it impossible to refuse.
An Xiaolei would be especially agreeable to Mu Yi's only remaining request.
After all, she wasn't picky and had no other hobbies.
At this time, An Xiaolei would usually say, "Okay, do what you like to do, I don't object."
Mu Yi would remain silent.
When An Xiaolei talked to Mu Yi on the phone, she always let Mu Yi hang up first.
An Xiaolei also made Mu Yi's phone turn off every night, sometimes even calling back to confirm.
An Xiaolei didn't stop Mu Yi from doing anything, and Mu Yi never did anything to harm herself.
This made An Xiaolei very happy, but she felt it wasn't quiet enough.
Even on a simple date, Mu Yi would blush, let alone at a gathering with friends.
Mu Yi seemed used to everything An Xiaolei arranged for her. An Xiaolei was also used to Mu Yi silently accepting everything.
Quiet and Silent,
An Xiaolei had never seen Mu Yi cry, not even once.
Perhaps it was because Mu Yi was too quiet, too reserved
, too shy, that the boys who had dated Mu Yi chose to break up with her.
But after the breakup, they didn't feel that Mu Yi had done anything wrong; those who broke up with Mu Yi only remembered her good points and became her friends.
An Xiaolei never argued or quarreled with Mu Yi.
Instead, she continued to treat Mu Yi well, and they dated for a month.
Many guys wouldn't be able to handle Mu Yi like that.
Although Mu Yi seemed innocent and pure, she was actually quite difficult to get along with.
The rival in love, the one who failed,
Mu Yi went home alone for the first time without An Xiaolei's company.
However, on the way home,
she witnessed a dramatic scene.
An Xiaolei was pressed against another girl, and the two were kissing.
