The two of them walked in silence for a while. The dim yellow light from the street lamps shone on the ground, as if they were stepping on a layer of hazy gauze.
"Why did you leave so late today?" Luo Xiayun asked lightly.”
" Oh," Ye Ling said casually." I was left on duty."”
After a short exchange, there was silence again.
Winter nights were colder than daytime. Ye Ling silently tightened his scarf to prevent the cold wind from blowing into his neck.
Luo Xiayun was wearing a branded coat. Although it looked good, it didn't seem to be able to completely resist the cold.
"Aren't you cold?" Ye Ling asked.
Luo Xiayun shook her head.
Ye Ling had a feeling that Luo Xiayun had something to say. She had been acting weird at the cafeteria today.
He thought for a moment. Could it be that she was angry that he did not go to look for her often?
Speaking of which, one of the enviable things about campus relationships was that couples could often see each other.
They were in the same school, so they could meet each other after class just by walking through a few corridors.
Being in the same class was even easier. They could be together all the time.
But didn't Luo Xiayun say that she didn't want the school to know that they were dating?
Ye Ling could not understand the girl's thoughts.
However, since Luo Xiayun was his girlfriend, he had to coax her when she was in a bad mood.
"Have you been in a bad mood recently?" Ye Ling probed.”
Luo Xiayun pondered for a moment and asked,"The girl sitting opposite you today…who is she?"”
"She seems to go to and from school with you often.”
Ye Ling was stunned for a moment before a faint smile appeared on his face.
"You mean Zhen Ran?"
"She lives next door to me. We grew up together.”
Luo Xiayun's face stiffened. Her already fair skin made her expression even colder.
Ye Ling finally understood why there was a phrase called " cold beauty ". Even if Luo Xiayun was angry, she still had a different temperament.
She was like a proud and pure white flower.
"Oh, I see." She said lightly.”
Luo Xiayun's reaction confirmed Ye Ling's guess. He was sure that Luo Xiayun was jealous.
Ye Ling added," We're very close. Xiaoran often comes to my house. My parents like her very much."”
He said that on purpose, and just as Ye Ling expected, Luo Xiayun immediately became angry.
"I know!" Luo Xiayun said angrily.”
She suddenly quickened her pace and walked forward, leaving Ye Ling far behind.
A gentle breeze blew her long hair into the night sky. Luo Xiayun's back blended into the night sky.
Ye Ling suddenly felt a sweet and sour feeling in his heart. The two of them had too many regrets in their previous life. The words that they did not have the time to say had become a hole that could never be filled.
Now that he finally had a chance to talk things out, Ye Ling did not plan to be as cautious as before. This time, he was going to be bolder.
He smiled and chased after her, walking backward.
Luo Xiayun did not slow down. She walked quickly in a huff and did not even look at Ye Ling.
"Are you angry?" Ye Ling chuckled.”
Luo Xiayun pouted and didn't say anything.
Ye Ling pulled her hand. It was cold to the touch, like touching a piece of cold jade. The temperature in winter was too low.
Luo Xiayun was shocked and her face turned red.
Her face turned from red to the tip of her ears, and even her small and round earlobes seemed to have turned pink.
"You, what are you doing?" she asked softly.”
Luo Xiayun tried to break free from Ye Ling's grip, but Ye Ling did not allow her to do so.
"Don't be angry. I'm just joking.”
Ye Ling looked into Luo Xiayun's eyes and explained,""Xiao Ran and I are family. In my heart, I already treat her as my biological sister.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiayun's furrowed brows relaxed a little.
However, he still looked a little unhappy.
"Why are you explaining to me?" she whispered.”
" Aren't you my girlfriend?" Ye Ling smiled." Of course I'll coax you if I'm jealous."”
Luo Xiayun felt her entire face heat up. Ye Ling's gaze made her feel a little overwhelmed.
"Who's jealous? I'm not." She muttered softly.”
"Really?"
Ye Ling took her hand and put it to his mouth, blowing on it to warm it.
Luo Xiayun's face was flushed red, and her long and thick eyelashes fluttered up and down as she blinked. She looked extremely beautiful.
"Well, a little," she whispered.”
"What?" Ye Ling asked deliberately. I didn't hear you."
Luo Xiayun glared at Ye Ling. Her gaze made Ye Ling's entire body go numb, as if he had been electrocuted.
"But I'm really happy that you're jealous of me.”
Ye Ling said softly.
Luo Xiayun blushed. The sweetness of love filled her heart like a pot of boiling water, bubbling pink bubbles.
She turned away from Ye Ling and mumbled,""Hurry up and go. If you come home late again, I'll be scolded.”
Ye Ling held her hand and said with a smile,""Okay, let's go."
Luo Xiayun struggled, but Ye Ling did not let go. Instead, he held her even tighter.
"There's no one else in the school.”
On the empty school road, the students had already left one after another. Only one or two guards were guarding the school gate in the distance.
There was no one around, only the two of them.
Ye Ling's palm was very hot, like a hot spring stone. It was especially warm on this cold winter night.
Luo Xiayun held his hand. Ye Ling's wide palm could wrap around her entire hand. The warmth from his palm seemed to reach her heart, making her feel a little restless.
The shadows of the withered trees swayed in the dark night. A little green had already begun to sprout on the tips of the branches. Spring was coming.
