When she reached junior high and entered adolescence, she had some vague ideas of romance.
Han Zhuoling also grew into a handsome and outstanding yet cold and aloof young man.
Lian Qingyin’s heart gradually landed on Han Zhuoling, unable to be retracted.
At first, her gaze could not help but follow Han Zhuoling around wherever he went.
Wherever Han Zhuoling walked to, her gaze would always be there.
Afterward, she could no longer feel satisfied just from gazing at him.
She would then secretly hide in a corner. Wherever he went, she would hide in a corner nearby, following him around all the time.
When he played basketball, she thought of a way to get into the Basketball Club so that she could pass water and towels to him from the sidelines during matches.
He would utter a word of thanks plainly every time, and she would blush. When she heard him speak to her, she could feel happy for one whole day, and when she went back home, she would feel so excited that she would not even be able to sleep at night.
For elective courses, whatever course he picked, she would pick them as well.
The girls in their class all chose pottery, floral arrangement, art class, dance, etc.
Yet she chose shooting and rock climbing just like Han Zhuoling.
Given that strength of hers, how could she possibly stand it?
She just gritted her teeth and pushed on, all because those were Han Zhuoling’s interests.
Until now, Lian Qingyin still did not know that it was precisely because she went wherever Han Zhuoling was that she was present in all of Han Zhuoling’s photos when he was at Jixia Academy.
Which made one shudder.
But Lian Qingyin clearly did not think this was something that was really scary.
She had been moved by her own devotion.
After she had been classmates with Han Zhuoling for so many years, Han Zhuoling actually did not have any impression of her at all!
And he completely did not remember that someone like her existed!
She liked him so much and cared so much about him, yet he said all these things to her.
And there were only so many people in their class. Given Han Zhuoling’s memory, how could he possibly not remember her!
He just said this on purpose!
Lian Qingyin felt that she understood this point, so she did not feel that sad anymore and even found an excuse for Han Zhuoling.
She said to him with an extremely touched expression on her face, “I know, you must be worried that Shi Xiaoya will be angry, right? So you purposely said you don’t have any impression of me and don’t remember me?”
Although she had already prepared an excuse for Han Zhuoling, when she said it like this, Lian Qingyin still felt her heart ache.
It was all because of Shi Xiaoya!
It was all because Shi Xiaoya was petty and narrow-minded that she had to suffer so much now.
She even made Han Zhuoling pretend that he did not remember her!
“I know, I understand everything. I won’t blame you,” Lian Qingyin said, but she cried sorrowfully at the same time.
She then glared at Shi Xiaoya furiously and said, “You woman, why are you so unreasonable? Can’t Zhuoling even have one female friend? Can’t he contact his past female classmates and his current female colleagues?
“You even want to interfere with Zhuoling’s choice of friends. You look so weak and pampered, yet you’re so domineering. Shi Xiaoya, it’s no use controlling your man so tightly like this. If he wants to leave you, he will still leave you. The tighter you control him, the farther he will stay away from you!”
“You are delusional,” Han Zhuoling said, feeling utterly disgusted. “Before you appeared yesterday, Xiaoya didn’t even know who you were. Up until now, she has also never spoken a word about you to me, whether it was good or bad.”
Han Zhuoling asked, “Do you know why?”
Lian Qingyin was stunned, but not because of his words.
It was because Han Zhuoling was talking to her.
Han Zhuoling was looking at her.
Finally, she was the only one in Han Zhuoling’s eyes at this moment.
He lowered his head, as if waiting for her to answer..
