Gu Yu never met Xu Weilai again after the birthday party. Grandpa Gu would sometimes bring her up in their conversation, but he showed little care for her. He couldn’t even recognise her when they met in college years later. He wouldn’t have known she was Xu Weilai, had Xu Shuai not teasingly reminded him she was that Xu Weilai, his fiancée. He certainly did not expect her to follow him here.
He was immediately annoyed with her the moment he saw her on the campus ground.
He hated women’s pestering and wouldn’t want to waste any thoughts on Xu Weilai. It would be best for her to keep her distance like how she used to. Perhaps he would have liked her better.
It turned out that she had never thought of going anywhere near him. She knew he had no liking towards her. So, she too has been keeping a safe distance between them.
Their meeting was just an accident.
The next entry had it proven.
February 2nd: I saw Gu Yu in the canteen today. He’s really tall and stands out in the crowd. I noticed him in just a glance. Top of my head should reach the height of his chest. Why do I feel like such a dwarf around him? This is so upsetting!
February 6th: I saw him again during physical education class. He was playing basketball. I was told that boys that are good at sport aren’t good in grades. He plays basketball so well, and looked so hot when he slam dunk. He looked so sexy when he was covered in sweat. He looked cute even when he was drinking water. A lot of girls were screaming his name, cheering for him. Does he like any of the girls? Sigh… I know I will never be that girl.
February 10th: I met Gu Yu again. I saw a girl handing him a love letter. She was pretty. I think she’s the beauty from the Department of Applied Foreign Languages. I dared not go near to eavesdrop on them. But I saw her leaving with a sad face. I guess Gu Yu rejected her, like he did to me. So, I’m not the only one that faced rejection from him. I wonder who will ever win his heart.
March 1: I met him again. It was just a plain white shirt, but he looked so good in them. How did he stand out among the guys in just a plain white shirt? He seems to look good in everything he wears. He was walking in front and I followed the trail he walked on. I know I should not fall for him, but my heart can’t help beating faster every time I see him.
March 8th: I noticed some stray kittens in the park outside the campus today. They were so tiny and adorable. I so wanted to sneak one home, but pets were not allowed in the dorm room. So, I could only try to feed them whenever I can. I found I wasn’t the only one feeding them. I did not get to bump into the person feeding them until today. I certainly did not expect that person to be Gu Yu. When I saw him holding the kittens, stroking and petting them, my heart melted.
April 1st: April Fool. Chunchun told me it was the best day for confession. Even if you get rejected, you can just tell him it was a joke. You don’t need to feel embarrassed. She asked me whether I wanted to try confessing to Gu Yu. I knew she was just teasing me. But I actually took her suggestion into serious consideration. Had I really fall in love with him?
April 2nd: Gu Yu, why can’t you just look at me? I’m decent too. Can you just spare me a little love?
