Chapter 73 Love Letter
These are all things that happened in the second semester of high school.
In the second year of high school, Tingyun and Lixue were still the same as before, with no contact.
But because he had seen the unknown side of her, he seemed to have a secret connection with her.
He had seen her vulnerable look, and that look was something she never wanted to show to others.
Such a beautiful, gentle girl is burdened with unknown pain, but she still pretends to be strong.
That look is really distressing and makes people want to help her.
Tingyun found that he was paying more and more attention to senior Li Xue and became more and more interested in her affairs.
He couldn't tell whether his feelings for her were concern, pity, or something else.
If I couldn't tell the difference, I would maintain the status quo and take no action until the second semester of my sophomore year.
When the second semester started, senior Liyue didn’t come to class.
Tingyun felt very strange and couldn't help but care, but he had no way of knowing why.
The classmates were also concerned, and various rumors gradually began to spread.
Some people say that Li Xue is sick.
Some people also say that she transferred to another school.
Tingyun pricked up his ears to listen to all the rumors about her. The more he listened, the more upset he became. He often became distracted in class.
What happened to Rixue-senpai?
Are you sick? Does it matter?
Have you transferred to another school? Does that mean that you will never see her again?
Without getting any news from her, Tingyun's heart was always hanging, as if there was a huge hole, cold and empty.
Only then did Tingyun realize that he had already regarded her as a normal part of his life. As long as she existed, he would feel at ease.
Now that she suddenly disappeared, he couldn't feel at ease. The thought that he might have lost contact with her made him particularly sad!
Does he like her?
When he wanted to understand this, he felt a tender and sad feeling in his heart.
Her beauty and fragility made him want to be gentle to her!
He hoped that he would not have the chance to just realize his intention!
He waited a week in this torturous uneasiness.
In the second week, Senior Sister Li Xue came to school.
Everyone also knew the reason why she took leave. She was indeed sick and had been sick for a week.
When he met Senior Li Xue in the corridor on the first floor of the library, Tingyun couldn't help but look at her carefully.
She has lost a lot of weight, her originally palm-sized face has become smaller, and her chin has become more pointed, which makes people feel distressed.
"Senior sister, I heard that you are sick? Is it important?" he asked with concern.
Li Xue smiled at him, her smile as peaceful as ever: "I've been sick for a few days. But it doesn't matter, I'm completely recovered now."
"That's good." Zingyun paused: "You didn't come to school, so everyone made random guesses. Some people said you transferred to another school."
Li Xue was slightly surprised and couldn't help laughing: "Why do you think so? Who would transfer from No. 1 Middle School?"
Yes, Lancheng No. 1 Middle School is the best high school in the province and one of the top 100 high schools in the country.
Who of the people who are admitted to this school will transfer abroad?
It's obviously illogical.
But that week, he was really worried that it was true.
It turns out that if you care about someone, you will really have random thoughts.
Senior Sister Li Xue is back. While Tingyun is relieved, he also feels a sense of urgency.
It is already March, and in three months, Senior Lixue will graduate.
You must hurry up and confess your love to her!
Tingyun typed the draft in his mind many times.
However, every time he met Li Xue-senpai, there were either other classmates around, or he couldn't speak out after trying for a long time.
He was not willing to let other students convey it.
Finally, he decided to write a letter to Senior Li Xue.
He carefully selected a beautiful letter paper from a stationery store near the school.
Thick letter paper with a plain white background and elegant antique patterns on it.
He felt that Senior Li Xue would definitely like this style.
After returning home, he began to consider the words to write a letter to her.
Write, tear, tear and write.
This letter is too plain, that letter is too disgusting...
After deleting and revising it, he finally wrote only a few lines. But he felt that these few lines were enough.
After writing it, I folded it twice and put it on my body, hoping to find an opportunity to give it to her.
The opportunity will come soon.
It was the second class on Monday afternoon, and Li Xue’s class was in physical education. The class was quiet, no one was there.
Tingyun deliberately stayed on the playground for a while, waiting for the school bell to ring, and then sneaked to Li Xue's class.
He found her seat. He quickly walked over and opened her desk board and put the letter in.
As soon as he put it in, he heard hurried footsteps from the other end of the corridor. He thought it was other late classmates running to the classroom.
He quickly covered the desk, walked out of the classroom, and turned up the stairs.
After walking only a few steps, footsteps sounded behind me, and the classmates who were in the corridor just now also came up.
Tingyun returned to the classroom, anxiously waiting for Li Xue's reply.
At that time, he never imagined that things would develop so outrageously.
Later, he also thought that if no classmates had passed by at that time, if he had taken one more look, he would not have made such a mistake.
Yes, he made a mistake.
After the fourth class in the morning, he deliberately passed by Li Xue's class door and remembered the location of her seat.
In order to avoid miscasting caused by changing seats, he specifically chose Monday.
Because each class changes seats before school on Friday, and will sit in the new seats directly on Monday.
But things are so coincidental.
Senior Li Xue’s class was called to the recording and broadcasting classroom by the Chinese teacher in the fourth period last Friday afternoon.
Class was over immediately after class without changing seats. Therefore, their class changed seats after school at noon on Monday.
In other words, Tingyun threw his love letter into someone else's table fight.
What's even more coincidental is that the current owner of that seat is the announcer of the school radio station.
After Tingyun left, other students opened the table and put a few broadcast manuscripts in.
After school in the afternoon, the announcer grabbed all the manuscripts, along with Zingyun's love letter, and hurried to the radio station.
At this time, the protagonist of the story, Zingyun, is still anxiously waiting for a reply. The other protagonist, Li Xue, still has no idea.
At first, the evening was like any other.
Some students were having dinner in the cafeteria, some were playing sports on the playground, and some were chatting by the flower bed.
The music that the students liked was played in the radio room, and the announcer used his young and energetic voice to read the manuscripts prepared by the students.
Perhaps reading manuscripts aloud is something he has become accustomed to. He can be absent-minded but still read aloud with great emotion.
Maybe it’s Tingyun’s love letter, which didn’t really look like a love letter at first.
In short, near the end of the broadcast, the announcer read out this paragraph with emotion:
"I once thought that the vast starry sky above my head was the most beautiful scenery in the world. The dream that stirred in my heart was the only pursuit in this life."
When he heard this sentence, Zingyun was reading "A Brief History of Time" in the classroom, hoping to stop waiting so anxiously.
When he heard this sentence coming from the radio, he was stunned for a second, then threw down the book and rushed out of the classroom.
The classroom of Class 1, Grade 2, is on the third floor, and the campus radio station is on the first floor.
