You go first

  "Xiao Xuan, look at C Town's flood situation, it will recede in two days." Jin Yan said, staring at the screen.

  "Uh, there are still two days left, it feels so long."

  Yes...

  The two of them immediately fell into silence, as if they couldn't find a new topic to talk about, because the atmosphere was very heavy.

  Minute by minute, second by second, time passed and they didn't speak a word. They raised their heads to gaze up at the starry sky, completely absorbed in it, almost as if they wanted to memorize the distribution of the stars in their minds.

  "That..."

  "That..."

  It was as if they had an unspoken understanding, for both of them suddenly spoke up at the same time.

  "You go first." Jin Yan was a bit embarrassed, his face flushing with a faint red glow in the night light, which Zi Xiao Xuan did not notice.

  "You go first."

  Azusa Kuzu said with a red face.

  "No, Xiaoxuan, you go first." Jin Yan thought she had something to say and it would be better for him to listen first.

  "You go first, you finish speaking and then I'll speak."

  Zi Xiaoxuan's face turned redder and redder, she hurriedly finished speaking, then turned her head away.

  “……”

  Watching her embarrassment, Jin Yan realized what she wanted to say, on the surface there was no change, but in her heart it had already been turbulent, and she really wanted to confess!

  Should he wait for him to confess, or take the initiative to confess to her?

  Analyzing the situation before the apocalypse, boys confessing to girls is mainstream because it's more romantic than girls confessing to boys!

  So he wanted to give her an unforgettable romance and decided to confess his feelings to her first!

  "Alright, I'll say it then." Jin Yan pretended to sigh and said calmly, "I've had a worry in my heart for a long time. This worry is suffocating me, I don't know if you're willing to listen to my troubles?"

  "What's wrong?"

  Azusa was drawn in by his troubles - did he have some? What kind of trouble could it be? How intriguing!

  Seeing her interest, Jin Ran continued, "Xiao Xuan, you've heard that I have a girlfriend, right?"

  Girlfriend? Is his trouble related to his girlfriend?

  Zi Xiao Xuan's eager mood slowly cooled down, and a sour taste surged up in her heart. She didn't know why she really didn't want to hear about him and his girlfriend... But he had troubles, and she couldn't just not listen.

  She nodded with a nonchalant and interested expression, "Uh-huh, I've heard that you and your girlfriend are in a long-distance relationship, right?"

  "Yes, my girlfriend's name is Li Ai. I met her in the second semester of elementary school third grade...". Jin Yan's gaze was fixed on the starry sky, not knowing who he was looking at through the stars, his mind suddenly returned to the time when he met his girlfriend.

  Li Ai? What a nice name! He and she met in elementary school, so I guess you could say they have a childhood sweetheart relationship.

  "When I was in the third grade of elementary school, Li Ai transferred to my class at the beginning of the second semester. At that time, I thought she was the most lovely girl among all the girls of the same age as me. She had two braids, her face was rosy, and she wore very beautiful clothes. The teacher arranged for us to sit together, so we got along very quickly and happily until graduation from elementary school. Because at that time, her parents were assigned to work outside, so she had to take the entrance exam for a middle school outside. On the day of our separation, I realized that I had fallen in love with her, and she also fell in love with me. We started long-distance dating, contacting each other every day by phone calls and letters. Every winter and summer vacation, she would come back and we would spend a few days together before she left again. I thought the long-distance relationship would last until now, but..."
