That day, Xiao Ya and I were studying in the library when we inadvertently overheard a group of girls gossiping at the next table.
"Hey, have you heard? Lin Weiwei cried for several days after being rejected!"
"Yeah, I heard about that too. I can't believe Lu Zixuan actually turned her down!"
"I heard that Lu Zixuan likes Su Xiaoli!"
"Is that true? Su Xiaoli? They've grown up together; I thought they were just siblings!"
"They're not siblings! I heard from Lin Weiwei's best friend that when Lu Zixuan rejected Lin Weiwei, he said the person he liked was Su Xiaoli, but..."
At this point, the girl suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "It's just that Su Xiaoli seems to have misunderstood Lu Zixuan. She thought he liked Lin Weiwei, so she deliberately distanced herself from him."
"Really? Is that even possible? That's so dramatic!"
"Exactly! That's why communication is the most important thing in a relationship! Without communication, misunderstandings can easily arise, and you might end up missing each other."
"Xiaoli, what's wrong? You don't look too good," Xiao Ya asked me with concern.
I forced a smile and replied, "I'm fine; I might just be a bit tired."
I hurriedly packed my things and fled the library.
The words I had just heard echoed in my mind.
I took out my phone, hesitated for a moment, and then dialed Lu Zixuan's number.
"Hello, Lu Zixuan..." My voice trembled slightly.
"Xiaoli?" His surprised voice came through the phone. "You... you finally decided to talk to me?"
Hearing his voice, I couldn't hold back my tears any longer; they streamed down my face. "I'm under the cherry blossom tree in the school garden. Can you come find me?"
There was a brief silence on the other end. "Who bullied you? Just wait, I'll be there right away!"
After hanging up, I sat beneath the cherry blossom tree, watching the petals fall, lost in thought.
Before long, Lu Zixuan came running over, breathless.
"Xiaoli!" He looked at me with concern in his eyes. "Are you okay? Why are you crying?"
I shook my head, wiped my tears, and mustered the courage to say, "Lu Zixuan, I... I heard that you... you like me, right?"
He paused for a moment, then smiled, a hint of relief and tenderness in his expression. "Yes, I like you, Xiaoli. I've liked you for a very long time."
My cheeks instantly flushed, and my heart raced.
"Back in elementary school, when you helped me with my homework and explained the problems to me, that’s when I started to like you. Do you remember? There was a boy who always bullied you, and I got into a fight with him to protect you. I ended up being punished by the teacher for it..."
I nodded; of course, I remembered. At that time, even though I said I disliked him, I felt grateful in my heart.
"And you always secretly ate the carrots I didn't like. Every time I saw you frowning yet still eating them bite by bite, I thought you were so cute..."
My face turned even redder—what a nuisance...
"Then we went to Junior High School and high school together. Watching you grow up day by day and become more beautiful made me like you even more. Every smile, every gesture of yours is deeply etched in my mind..."
He stepped closer and gently took my hand. " Xiaoli, I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
