"I, Qin Yanran, will never fall in love with someone like you.”
Qin Yanran's words were like a sharp sword that pierced deep into Su Lin's heart.
Initially, Su Lin didn't have that intention. He knew his own limitations and knew that he wasn't worthy of Qin Yanran. However, Su Lin knew that it was two different things to be unworthy and to hear it from Qin Yanran's mouth.
I, Su Lin, didn't ask you to like me, nor did I confess to you. I just wanted to say sorry to you. Why do you have to say that I won't like someone like you?
"Someone like me? What kind of person am I? Wasting his time in school? She was neither a rich second generation nor a government official. She would graduate from high school in a few days. A poor second generation b * tch with an uncertain future?”
Being rejected and reprimanded by Qin Yanran in public, Su Lin had nothing to say. He had no way to refute her. In the eyes of others, wasn't he such a person?
"Who is that? He actually dared to confess to the school belle in front of so many people?”
"That's right! It seemed like it had been a long time since anyone dared to confess to the school belle, right?”
"I remember that the last time someone confessed to the school belle in public was half a year ago. Was it Luo Tian, the basketball captain who had swept the entire school by storm? "Even he was mercilessly rejected by the school belle. At that time, I saw Luo Tian's face turn green. At that time, Luo Tian even bought a lot of balloons and pieced them together to form a heart. How romantic was that? All the girls in the school were mesmerized, but our school belle didn't even look at him. She said that she was bored and walked away…"
"I recognize him. This is Su Lin, who is in the same class as the school belle. I heard that he tried to molest the school belle in class yesterday. I didn't expect him to dare to confess in public today. In the past, the school belle would at most ignore those who confessed to her. Today, the school belle actually said such ruthless words. It seems that he really made the school belle angry…"
……
The surrounding crowd discussed animatedly. None of them sympathized with Su Lin. With Su Lin's qualifications, he wanted to pursue the school belle? In their eyes, she was really the school belle of the world. They were all watching Su Lin make a fool of himself and wanted to see how Su Lin was going to get off the stage!
Qin Yanran was used to people confessing to her. She wouldn't have said such radical words, but she was in a bad mood today, and Su Lin happened to be in the line of fire.
But then again, Su Lin wasn't here to confess. He was here to apologize. Qin Yanran calmed down a little. Her mind was not as impulsive anymore. She also felt that what she said today was a little too harsh.
"Su Lin is only here to apologize. Am I going too far by saying that to him?”
In Qin Yanran's eyes, all the boys who wanted to get close to her had the same goal, and Su Lin was no exception. Qin Yanran had always maintained a firm rejection and indifference attitude. Otherwise, how many boys would chase after her all day long?
Realizing that she had gone overboard with her words, Qin Yanran looked at the silent Su Lin. She wanted to say something softer, but she was afraid that if she said it, the surrounding students and Su Lin would think that she was interested in Su Lin again.
Just as Qin Yanran, who had changed her attitude, was at a loss for words, Su Lin had thought it through. He swallowed his anger and became determined."Fine, Qin Yanran, do you think that I, Su Lin, am that kind of person? I, Su Lin, am not a coward. I will become the kind of person you like. I don't believe that I, who have the ability to control time and work hard, can't become the person you like.”
Su Lin, who had been silent, lowered his head. He was 1.75 meters tall, and he looked down at Qin Yanran, who was 1.6 meters tall. He took a deep breath and smiled. He said confidently,"Student Qin Yanran, very good. You don't like someone like me, Su Lin? But what kind of person am I, Su Lin? Yes, my grades aren't good, and my family background isn't good. Her looks are just average, and she's indeed not someone you, the school belle, can look at. Originally, I didn't plan to confess to you. I just came to apologize for what happened yesterday. I admit that it was my fault yesterday. I sincerely apologize to you. But I don't want to be looked down upon by you again. Perhaps I, Su Lin, was the kind of person you looked down on in the past, but today…"
Su Lin's heart was thumping. There were so many students around him. Today, he was going to spread his words. He was sure that when he said this, he would become the topic of discussion and laughter in the entire school. However, Su Lin didn't care. He just wanted to find a chance to prove himself. He, Su Lin, didn't want to be looked down upon by others anymore.
Taking a deep breath, Su Lin looked around and realized that the students around him were all staring at him. He said firmly,"Today, Qin Yanran, I, Su Lin, confess to you. I know that you will reject me. You will not like people like me, but just you wait. I, Su Lin, will become outstanding, more outstanding than everyone here! Because…I like you!"
He was just acting out of spite!
Impulsiveness, it was impulsiveness!
Youth was like this!
Why did he have to be so timid? Why did he not dare to say what he was thinking? Su Lin wanted everyone to know that he was not inferior to others. If he liked the school belle, then go after her. What was so great about being rejected? Did he think that he was not outstanding enough? Then I'll become even more outstanding for you to see.
After saying this, Su Lin felt his entire heart relax. The anger and unwillingness that he had been suppressing in his heart were all released.
However, this was only Su Lin's own feeling. He had said it out loud, and he felt great in his heart. However, in the eyes of others, Su Lin's actions were ridiculous and unrealistic.
Outstanding?
Not to mention that Su Lin's results were not even considered ordinary, even if his results were outstanding and he could squeeze into the ranks of a first-tier university, what was the use? Even the top ten boys in the year round didn't dare to claim to be outstanding in front of Qin Yanran. Who do you think you are, Su Lin?
One had to know that Qin Yanran had always been the top student in the grade since she entered the first year of high school. She had never been defeated by anyone.
So many boys with good grades, good family backgrounds, and both talent and beauty had been rejected by Qin Yanran. Su Lin, could you win Qin Yanran over with just these words? It was really too laughable.
Soon, the crowd burst into laughter.
What a joke. They finally saw it. It wasn't in vain for them to stay here for a few minutes. They had finally seen a joke. After the exam was over, they would be able to discuss it with the other students in class.
As the person who was confessed to, Qin Yanran's heart wasn't that relaxed. Qin Yanran was born in an aristocratic family. Not to mention the other complicated relationships in her family, even her mother, Fang Liping, was the chief of Jian An City. Her father had died early when she was young. Her mother's strength had allowed her to learn independence, responsibility, and maturity earlier.
If it was any other little girl, she might have been slightly moved by Su Lin's behavior. Being confessed to by a boy in public had always been something that almost all girls were proud of, regardless of whether they liked the boy or not.
However, in Qin Yanran's eyes, Su Lin's actions were too childish.
Outstanding?
What did this have to do with liking or not?
I like the person I like, even if he isn't.
If he didn't like someone, no matter how outstanding he was, he still didn't feel anything.
Thinking of this, Qin Yanran felt a burst of laughter in her heart, but suddenly, her heart palpitated again. It was not because of anything else, but because of the word "like".
"You like it? What was liking? What does it feel like to like someone?"
Seventeen or eighteen years old, at such a young and ignorant age, which young man would not be passionate? Which young girl didn't yearn for love?
Qin Yanran was the same. She also hoped that someone she liked would appear. However, Qin Yanran had no lack of suitors even though it was just a wish and hope. It could be said that there was no boy in the entire Jian An First Middle School who did not like Qin Yanran.
However, Qin Yanran herself didn't even know what it felt like to like someone.
As for being liked, she thought she was numb to it. From direct confessions to all kinds of small gifts and love letters from boys, she was already tired of it. Was this the feeling of being liked? That was a really annoying feeling.
So, what does it feel like to like someone?
Qin Yanran didn't know. She didn't feel it at all. It was said in the book that when one liked someone, they would always hang on to their heart, think about them day and night, go crazy for them, be crazy for them, follow them to the ends of the world, or be willing to go to the underworld for them.
"What is love in the world? He's just teaching people to promise each other life and death."
Suddenly, this sentence appeared in Qin Yanran's heart. To like someone, to fall in love with someone, wasn't that to be willing to do anything for him, surpassing the fear of death?
"Surpassing life and death? Could liking someone really ignore the fear of death? Then…who would be willing to disregard life and death for me? Who can I risk everything for?”
Compared to her peers, she was more mature. The love in Qin Yanran's heart wasn't made up by those idol dramas. As for the specifics, Qin Yanran asked herself, but she didn't know.
Just now, Su Lin's " I just like you " made Qin Yanran laugh, but her heart also throbbed a little. This kind of disregard for everything, didn't it also give off the feeling of not fearing life and death? She had already been laughed at by everyone. She knew that she could not do it, but she did it. Wasn't she better than those boys who had been rejected by her once and were unable to recover?
In the past, Qin Yanran almost never paid attention to Su Lin, who was in the same class as her. She would only exchange a few words with Su Lin every time she collected her English homework. Qin Yanran's impression of Su Lin was that he was a 'bad student.' Qin Yanran naturally didn't want to have anything to do with such a person.
But today, two parallel lines that were originally unrelated actually intersected. Su Lin actually dared to say such unrealistic words under the ridicule of so many people.
"How dare he say that?"
Qin Yanran was slightly surprised by Su Lin's courage.
But now, looking at Su Lin's confident expression and eyes, Qin Yanran, who was about to reject him, suddenly changed her mind.
"Su Lin, did you just say that you like me? Is it true that you want to become more outstanding and worthy of me?”
With a faint smile, Qin Yanran actually didn't fly into a rage. Instead, she changed her cold attitude and actually smiled at Su Lin.
It was too unbelievable. Everyone who was originally mocking him suddenly quieted down. This was too strange. Qin Yanran smiled. Qin Yanran actually smiled at a boy, and this boy was Su Lin. It was the " inferior student " who had just confessed to Qin Yanran.
Even Su Lin himself was stunned. He had already mentally prepared himself to face Qin Yanran's storm. Who knew that she would actually smile like smoke? Moreover, Qin Yanran actually asked this question. Could it be that she would really accept him? Wasn't this too unbelievable? Even Su Lin himself didn't believe it.
"Yes, Qin Yanran, I know you don't like me. But I will work hard to become better. Because I, Su Lin…like you!”
Although he didn't believe it, Su Lin couldn't let his confidence down. He patted his chest and said confidently.
"Alright. Student Su Lin, you said that you want to become more outstanding, then…how about this, if you can get into the top 50 of the year in this preliminary exam, I can consider it.”
What was that? Qin Yanran actually said that she could consider it. This was really the biggest news in Jian An First Middle School this year.
