Chapter 6 — Eight Years of Secret Love

【Why did you suddenly change your WeChat account?】 I just asked why you changed it too, you were silent like today. That time, he used the words "just woke up" to cover my question. This time, he intended to use the three words "sorry" to avoid my question. I couldn't help it, silently smirking in my heart. Unexpectedly, I still held a glimmer of hope for him. Looking at him standing silently in front of me, I shook my head and pointed out the door. "We've finished talking, you can go." The vacation is over, we're about to return to school. At noon before the departure, Quy Da's mother deliberately cooked a large table of food and invited my whole family over to eat. When she entered the house, I pulled my suitcase and prepared to go out. "Thank you, aunt, but I had an appointment with my classmates so I couldn't eat." She chased after me, holding my hand. "You... didn't you book a ticket with Quy Da?" I shook my head. She was so regretful that she clapped her hands. "Oh my gosh, Quy Da is really good. Why didn't he tell me earlier that we were going to go alone?" "If I knew you were leaving today, I would definitely invite you to dinner last night." I opened my arms to hug her. "Thank you. There are still many opportunities in the future. Next time I come back, I will find you to eat!" She gently patted my back. "Okay, then you can contact me directly. We don't need Quy Da to do anything." Even the messenger, the boy always reported too late. "Back at school in the evening, my roommate had just returned from outside and said that someone was looking for me outside the door. I unlocked my phone and quickly saw Quy Da's messages continuously appearing in the chat box. 【I brought some things for you, can you go out for a trip?】 【Lan Lan, this is what my mother told me to bring for you. She told me to give it to you personally.】 I went out. He gave me two bags of snacks. “My mother said… told me to bring them to you.” When he said that, he didn't even dare look at me. I reluctantly shook my head. "It's been so many years and you still don't know how to lie." "I accept your sympathy, but please bring your things home." "I heard my aunt say you're preparing for the graduate school exam. Don't come to me in the future, just focus on studying." I turned around and went in. He rushed forward, stuffed a snack into my hand, then turned and ran. A long time later, his phone received a message from him again. 【I'm sorry, but please consider this as my apology. Later, I will seriously prepare for the exam.】 Later, during winter break, he stood in front of my dormitory with his luggage. "Lan Lan, do you want to go home?" "I'm not planning on going home yet." I pointed to my friend waiting for me in the distance. "We're going out." He nodded slowly, with a lonely look on his face, stepping aside to make way. "Okay." When my friends and I boarded the plane to the North, I also posted a post on my personal page. 【Today, very happy.】 Not for anyone. Just to celebrate my first winter break after college!
