Chang Ru finally sighed and left.
She got the answer she wanted.
Itâs time to let go.
Gu Shengyin noticed that Chang Ruâs attitude towards her had changed again.
Unlike before when she acted kindly, sheâs no longer opposing her in secret after their falling out.
She started seeing Gu Shengyin as just an ordinary classmate.
Gu Shengyin breathed a sigh of relief.
She wasnât opposed to homosexuality.
She hoped Chang Ru wouldnât fall for someone like Zhong Changhuan again.
Obsessive love often leads to tragic endings.
Gu Shengyin hadnât given up on pursuing Lin Ze, but she was no longer as outspoken as before.
She would sit nearby when Lin Ze was eating, attending every event at the school involving Lin Ze, like basketball games and debates.
Her academic performance was steadily improving, and by sophomore year, she was firmly in the top thirty of her grade.
Even people at school knew about the two of them.
The way they looked at Gu Shengyin changed from strange to blessing.
This girl is really earnestly pursuing the person she likes.
Even Lin Zeâs buddies had told him, "Iâm not kidding, buddy, you might never find a girl who likes you this much again in your life."
Lin Ze didnât say anything.
He wasnât sure how he felt about Gu Shengyin.
If it was attraction, it didnât seem like it; he didnât feel the blush or heartbeat when he saw her.
But if it wasnât attraction, that wasnât entirely true either. At least Lin Ze knew inside that, over this long period, her place in his heart was indeed different.
He hadnât been in a relationship before, so he didnât know that a girl named Zhong Changhuan had woven a web of habit around him in her own way.
When she was near him, he didnât sense anything wrong.
He felt that his heart needed time to be tested, thinking everything would stay as he imagined, waiting for him.
Senior year arrived.
Everything proceeded calmly according to schedule.
When the first semester of senior year ended, a group of students living in the city planned to hang out together since they wouldnât have such chances once the next semester started.
Lin Ze initially didnât want to go but was dragged along by his friends.
Gu Shengyin went too.
They went hiking, karaoke, and soaking in hot springs.
Played for an entire week.
At night in the hotel, they played card games, Truth or Dare.
Song Tao drew the trump card, his eyes rolling, and shouted, "The person who draws a â„7, go kiss the person who draws a â 7!"
Everyone looked at their cards.
Gu Shengyin glanced downâ â 7, what a coincidence?
Lin Ze grimly pulled out his cardâ â„7.
Their eyes met, and the crowd started egging them on.
Their story had been circulating for over two years.
Lin Zeâs face didnât look good, and Gu Shengyin didnât move.
Song Tao glanced and said, "Seriously, Lin Ze, canât even play a game? Itâs no big deal; even our beauty Changhuan didnât say anything."
Lin Ze bowed his head slightly, only he knew how fast his heart was beating.
It wasnât unwillingness but rather nervousness.
Seeing Lin Ze not taking any action, the atmosphere in the room grew heavy.
