The craze of knitting scarves came in waves. The students in the class were all knitting scarves during the break. Yuruo had never touched these things before. She had never embroidered cross-stitch before. It was too difficult for her to knit scarves.
Yuruo bought wool and tools, and when she got home, she kept begging her aunt to teach her how to knit a scarf.
"If you don't study these things properly, who do you want to knit a scarf for?”Aunt looked at Yuruo with a sharp gaze.
Yuruo's heart suddenly lost its confidence. She had only wanted to learn, but who would she give it to if she finished knitting?
"I'm going to knit it and give it to Grandpa.”Yuruo smiled at her aunt.
Aunt looked at Yuruo suspiciously,"Why are you so concerned about knitting a scarf for Grandpa? Isn't it for a little boy?”
"What little boy? I'm not one of those love-struck little girls in school. I'll knit it and give it to grandpa."”
Her aunt couldn't win against Yuruo, so she agreed to teach Yuruo how to knit a scarf. Yuruo was ecstatic, but she didn't expect the process to be difficult.
Aunt patiently taught Yuruo step by step, but Yuruo's hands didn't seem to listen to her. The patterns on the scarf were always messy.
"You're really a stupid girl. You don't even know how to teach it a few times.”Aunt scolded Yuruo from the side.
"Auntie, let me see how many more needles you can knit. I'll work hard to learn.”Yuruo pouted and said to her aunt.
Aunt picked up the scarf again helplessly. Yuruo's eyes widened as she focused on each stitch. Before she could recover, Aunt had already knitted for a long time.
Yuruo took over the one-fifth of the scarf that her aunt had finished knitting and began to knit it according to her aunt's knitting method. She took off half of the scarf and re-knitted it again and again. Just like that, the untalented Yuruo finally mastered the method of knitting a scarf after a long period of repeated practice. When she returned to the class, she saw that many of her classmates had finished knitting, but Yuruo was not discouraged. Although her progress was slow, she finally lived up to everyone's expectations.
Yuruo took the scarf she had knitted and walked up to her grandfather,"Grandpa, my scarf is done. I'll put it on for you.”
Grandpa lowered his head happily, and Yuruo wrapped the scarf around his neck a few times.
"It's good. Hurry up and look in the mirror, Grandpa.”Yu Ruo said happily to her grandfather.
Grandpa smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the scarf that Yuruo had knitted for him in the mirror.
"It's so warm. Granddaughter is so considerate. Grandpa likes it very much.”Grandpa said with a satisfied smile.
Yuruo was extremely happy. Seeing how much her grandfather liked her scarf, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
It wasn't long before Christmas, and the craze for scarves in class was even crazier. The girls were all knitting scarves for the boys they liked, and Yuruo missed Zeyang again.
She thought that she would never see Zeyang again after the incident last time, but who knew that fate was hard to go against? Once, when Yuruo was pushing her cart out of the school gate, she suddenly saw Zeyang's figure. Yuruo's heart raced, and she didn't know what to do. She wanted to stop Zeyang, but she was afraid to face him. Just as Yuruo was hesitating, Zeyang walked towards her.
"You're out of school? Do you mind having a meal together?" Zeyang looked at Yuruo expressionlessly.
Yuruo was stunned. She didn't know what this sudden invitation meant, but she still agreed to eat with Zeyang.
They went to a restaurant not far from the school to eat. The two of them sat opposite each other and saw Zeyang staring at Yuruo without saying a word.
"Do you have something to say?”Yuruo asked Zeyang tentatively.
"I... It was all my fault in the past. I didn't care enough for you and didn't cherish your kindness to me. I hope that the two of us can try dating again and give me a chance.”Zeyang said affectionately.
Yuruo seemed to have predicted this outcome the moment she saw Zeyang. She had also told herself a long time ago that being nice to someone would be cherished sooner or later. Now that Zeyang had really come back to look for her, and that the always aloof Zeyang was speaking so tactfully today, Yu Ruo started to hesitate.
"I know you might be in a difficult position. I'll give you time to think about it. Can you give me an answer by Christmas?”Zeyang said to Yuruo.
Yuruo nodded and started to eat.
After ending this uncomfortable dinner, Yuruo returned home and started to feel conflicted. She knew that she still had Zeyang in her heart, but when she thought about how Zeyang treated her, Yuruo didn't want to turn back. Just like that, Yuruo was immersed in conflict for several days.
Every day, Yuruo witnessed the so-called passionate love between her classmates. She would also politely reject those who pursued her. Finally, she could not break free from her lingering heart and decided to try to go back to the beginning with Zeyang.
Yuruo secretly bought wool and knitted a scarf without telling her friends and family. She wanted to give it to Zeyang on Christmas Day and make up again.
It was December 24th, and a cold wind was blowing. Yuruo was in class for evening self-study. She would look out the window from time to time. Although the dead trees were still there and the cold wind was not stopping, her heart was filled with countless romantic and beautiful scenes. Tonight was Christmas Eve. She would be able to see Zeyang after school. Perhaps from today onwards, the two of them could go back to the past.
After class, Yuruo even bought a beautifully wrapped apple because giving an apple on Christmas Eve was also a blessing. Yuruo brought the apple and the scarf she had knitted and arranged to meet Zeyang at an intersection not far from the school.
Yuruo rode the trolley towards the intersection with a face full of joy. Not far away, she saw Zeyang standing there waiting. Yuruo quickly got off the trolley and pushed it towards Zeyang.
"Have you been standing for a long time? Are you cold? You don't even wear gloves." Yuruo looked at Zeyang thoughtfully.
"I'm fine. I don't have the habit of wearing gloves.”Zeyang said in his usual cold tone.
"Seeing that the weather is so cold, I knitted this scarf for you myself. You have to wear it in the future.”Yu Ruo said to Zeyang with a sense of accomplishment.
"I don't like to wear scarves. It's troublesome. I never wear them.”Zeyang's cold words pierced Yuruo's hopeful heart.
"It's up to you whether you want to wear it or not. I've already knitted it. If you don't want to wear it, you can throw it away. Also, today is Christmas Eve.”Yuruo said angrily and stuffed the scarf and apple into Zeyang's hands.
Zeyang looked at the apple in his hand and said,"I received a lot of apples from my friends today."”
"Friends?" Yu Ruo continued. Yes, you have so many friends. I really want to ask you, how much weight do I hold in your heart?”
Zeyang lowered his head and fell silent for a while before saying,"I don't know. Right now, only my family and friends are the most important in my heart.”
When Zeyang said this, Yuruo's vision turned dark and she couldn't see anything clearly. She knew that Zeyang's redemption was either a moment of loneliness or a moment of reflection. However, Zeyang's habit of not cherishing things would never change. Even if they reconciled, they would part sooner or later. Yuruo relaxed and said to Zeyang,"I can give you the answer now. The two of us will never have a chance to be together again. I'm just a dispensable person. Throw away the things I gave you because they're all trash.”
Without waiting for Zeyang to reply, Yuruo got on the electric bike and sped towards the south. Zeyang held the thoughtful gift from Yuruo in his hand and stood there for a long time. He knew that Yuruo would never turn back this time. There was endless regret and pain in his heart. He could only blame himself for not being able to open his heart. He would always lose because he did not say what was on his mind. He would always say cold words that hurt Yuruo, but everything could not be salvaged.
Yuruo cried as she rode the bike. She regretted that she had put in so much effort for nothing in exchange for Zeyang's words," In my heart, there's only family and friends."”That night, Yuruo also told herself that everything would start over again and that she would no longer be nostalgic about the past.
The next day, when she returned to school, Yu Ruo told her best friend Mu Xiao everything. Mu Xiao kept saying that Yu Ruo had no backbone. Yu Ruo told Mu Xiao that she must let go of everything in the past and start her own path again.
Yuruo firmly believed that one day, she would meet someone who treated her with sincerity.
This winter was filled with joy, sadness, and many unexpected things. However, Yuruo firmly told herself that everything would pass and that she had to start over again.
Afterwards, Yuruo was still happily with Mu Xiao. She was still happily a third wheel, but that feeling was very considerate.
February 14th is Valentine's Day, which is popular in western countries. Unknowingly, Valentine's Day has slowly spread to China and around us.
That day, Yuruo returned home early after school. She didn't like to see couples everywhere on the street. It would make her heart extremely miserable. At this moment, her phone rang.
"Yuruo, come out and eat. Haobin and I will treat you to a meal.”Mu Xiao said over the phone.
"I'm not going. You two have a good time together. I won't disturb this special day.”Yuruo rejected tactfully.
"No, come out quickly. How can we bear to leave you alone at home? If you don't come out, we'll come to your house to pick you up.”Mu Xiao said stubbornly."
Yuruo understood Mu Xiao's character. If she didn't go, they would really come looking for her. She couldn't refuse the kindness and went out to look for Mu Xiao and Haobin.
"Our 'daughter' is here. Sit down quickly. I'll treat you to a big meal today.”Hao Bin smiled at Yu Ruo.
"The two of you really won't let me off on such a holiday.”Yu Ruoping said.
"I didn't want you to feel uncomfortable at home. I said I wouldn't abandon you no matter what.”Mu Xiao said as he helped Yuruo pull the stool.
Although Yuruo was still embarrassed to be the third wheel, she was still very happy to see Mu Xiao treat her so well.
During the meal, Mu Xiao and Haobin put food in Yuruo's bowl. Yuruo felt warm in her heart. At this moment, she no longer felt uncomfortable at first. She really felt like she was family with them.
At this moment, Haobin joked to Yuruo,"Girl, hurry up and find someone who treats you well and marry him. Find us a son-in-law too, haha.”
Yuruo lowered her head helplessly as she ate, but she was also looking forward to meeting a caring partner one day.
As the days progressed, Yuruo encountered the most unforgettable relationship in her life. Please look forward to the next chapter.
