Chen Jiayu looked at Cai Jiayi's back without blinking, and her heart felt a little depressed.

Chen Nianchu's eyes lingered on his face, feeling a little thoughtful, but she didn't say anything, just put the book in her hand on the table, which was a collection of exercises. Then, she sat down next to Chen Jiayu, took out a pen, and started to do the exam.

Chen Jiayu finally turned his gaze back to the book in front of him.

He clearly knew each of the dense words on it, but when they were connected, they seemed to be trapped in fog and blurred.

Cai Jiayi's figure when she left was unable to escape in her mind.

This was the first time he saw Cai Jiayi, who looked like she was just now. Did she really not care about what she said, or just forced herself to smile to hide her true emotions?

Chen Jiayu absent-mindedly turned the book one page.

That little green tea is very thoughtful.

No one knows what she thought.

It is acting or sincerity, and there is no way to judge.

However, these have nothing to do with him, and he has no responsibility to her...

After reading a few more pages, Chen Jiayu sighed in his heart, closed the book, and said to Chen Nianchu: "I won't read it today, I'll go back first."

Chen Nianchu raised his black and white eyes, looked at him for a few seconds, and said softly: "Okay."

Chen Jiayu returned to the classroom and unexpectedly found that Cai Jiayi was not inside.

"Where is Cai Jiayi?" He walked over and asked Zhu Shu who was doing the question, "Did you see her?"

"I don't know, she hasn't returned to the classroom." Zhu Shu asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Chen Jiayu didn't answer and turned around and left the classroom.

After going downstairs, he walked along the playground and looked around. After most of the circle, his eyes swept across the stands on the side of the playground. Then, he saw a figure on the top floor and stopped.

Cai Jiayi sat there curled up with her knees in her hands.

There was wind at noon today, and the girl's loose school uniform was blown by the wind, making her look even thinner. From a distance, she looked just a small ball.

There was no one else beside her, she sat there alone, with a few strands of hair flying in a mess by the wind.

It was sunny, but her whole body seemed to be covered in a coat called loneliness.

The girl's delicate chin was pressed against her knees, and her cat-like eyes were staring at the bottom, but obviously, her attention was not on anything in her sight, because she did not react until Chen Jiayu stepped on the stairs in the stands and walked up step by step, and walked to her near.

Chen Jiayu split his legs slightly, squatted down, raised one hand, and shook it close in front of her.

The sudden appearance of foreign objects in the field of vision made Cai Jiayi shake like a cat that was only scared, and then she saw him.

"Why are you here?" she opened her eyes wide and said in surprise.

"Why are you stunned by someone here?" Chen Jiayu asked.

Cai Jiayi bit her lip, moved her gaze away from him, staring at the distance with the same expression as usual, and whispered: "It's nothing, just sit there."

"Why don't you go back to the classroom to sit?"

“…It’s quieter here.”

"Oh." Chen Jiayu had a smile on his lips, "Would you mind if I'll sit for a while?"

"This is not my private place... If you want to sit, sit."

Chen Jiayu sat down next to her, stretched one leg straight, and bent the other one, and supported her with one hand behind her. She sat casually with a bit of laziness.

She raised her hand and pushed away a few hairs that were blown on her cheeks by the wind, turned her head to look at him, and asked again: "Why are you not reading books in the library and coming here."

Chen Jiayu thought, I don’t know why, so how do I answer?

So he simply stopped answering.

Cai Jiayi blinked her eyes and said thoughtfully: "You wouldn't worry that I would be hit hard because you and Shen Nianchu made an appointment to meet in the library, and I felt that my life was dark, so you were restless and came to see me?"

Chen Jiayu: "...It doesn't need to be so exaggerated."

She leaned her head against her arm and smiled gently: "Well, it's not that exaggerated. It's a bit unhappy, but it's not serious enough to be sad. You don't think this is a big deal. You can rest assured."

Chen Jiayu smiled: "Is that true?"

"yes."

She looked at him in a steady state, then said something calmly.

"Chen Jiayu, I like you, it's true."

"But I don't mind what happened just now, it's true."

"I was indeed a little unhappy after I knew you had made an appointment. But apart from this unhappiness, I know very well that I am not qualified to ask for anything."

The girl had a slightly low nasal sound, which was erratic by the afternoon wind, but was still well organized.

"Because you have not made any promises to me, our relationship, whether intimacy or length, may not be as good as that between you and Shen Nianchu."

"After all, we only met for more than half a month."

"And I have always understood that compared to Shen Nianchu, I am a latecomer in your heart."

"I am at a natural disadvantage in this competition, which is a fact that I have long accepted. Therefore, I have been prepared for the possibility of something like that just now and will not be knocked down so easily."

Speaking of this, Cai Jiayi paused.

Her amber eyes looked at Chen Jiayu.

At this moment, I was so gentle that I couldn't speak.

"More importantly, to me, you are not a thing, but a person."

"You have complete thoughts, independent personality, your own likes and dislikes and social circles, and you also have the freedom to choose who you like, who you are with, and what you do... Whenever you choose, I will only give you absolute respect."

"I like you, not wanting you to become my personal property."

Hearing this, Chen Jiayu's heart finally shook slightly.

If these words are false, then her acting skills are enough to crush all Oscar winners.

Cai Jiayi pursed her lips for a while before saying lightly, "Of course, I was a little unhappy at that moment just now... But it was just a little bit, so you don't have to care too much."

"And, seeing that you actually came to me on your own initiative, I was completely unhappy." Her crescent-like eyes bent again.

"Why did you come to me? Hehe, let me guess, you won't... you're a little fond of me, right?"
