Chapter 40: The Truth

  "It's none of your business!"

  "I know this photo is Zhao Yinan's." Gu Yue Xuan suddenly said this sentence, which made me very surprised.

  Seeing me with a puzzled face, Gu Yue Xuan smiled and said: "I also know that this photo is not synthesized."

  I was already surprised, but now I'm even more shocked. My eyes are wide with amazement as I stare at Gu Yue Xuan, he actually knows...

  "You...how did you know?" I exclaimed in surprise.

  "So it's really not synthetic after all!"

  As soon as I said that, I knew I was cheated. He was just trying to get something out of me. How could I be so stupid? Is there a pill for regret?

  "It's actually not what you think it is, that day, that day I and Ouyang Luo... " I wanted to explain on the other side, but didn't know what I was saying.

  "I didn't ask you to explain."

  "Huh?" I looked at Gu Yue Xuan in confusion.

  "Although we know that Zhao Zhen took the photo, someone has already taken the blame for her. We can't do anything to Zhao Zhen even if we catch her."

  "Take the blame? Is it that person who said the photo was his composite? Why did he want to do this?"

  "When a person loves another so deeply, he can die for her; what's being expelled from school in comparison?"

  Hearing Gu Yue Xuan say that, that person must like Zhao Zhi Nian, but Zhao Zhi Nian likes Ou Yang Luo. Thinking of this, I thought of Ye Zi, she's also in this situation, right? But does Gu Yue Xuan like her?

  "Does Gu Yue Xuan like leaves?" I don't know what's wrong with me, but I suddenly asked this sentence.

  Gu Yue Xuan was slightly surprised, "You're referring to Ouyang Ye?" He said with a smile.

  "Uh-huh." I nodded.

  She is my classmate and friend.

  "What? How is this possible? Yang Zhenyu likes Yezi, but Yezi likes Gu Yuexuan, and yet Gu Yuexuan treats her as just a friend! It's so complicated."

  "But, Yezi is a good girl, she..."

  "When are you going to pay me back? It's been a long time!" Before I could finish speaking, Gu Yue Xuan interrupted me.

  Is he talking about watching movies again? It seems like every time I see him, he has to remind me once more.

  "Tomorrow then, tomorrow is Saturday, see you at our usual place, don't be late!"

  "But... never mind, I'll go tomorrow if I have to." "Okay!" I nodded.

  Gu Yue Xuan smiled and used his hand to mess up my hair.

  Although I know the photo was taken by Zhao Yinan, I still don't understand why Ouyang Luo suddenly got in touch with Zhao Yinan. Is it really because he likes her? Should I tell him that the photo was taken by Zhao Yinan?

  After returning home, I kept thinking about these issues, and when I went upstairs, I bumped into someone. I covered my forehead, looked up, and saw that the person I bumped into was Ouyang Luo. He ignored me and walked straight downstairs.

  "Wait!" I called out to Ouyang Luo, who also stopped in his tracks, but still with his back to me. "You know that the photo was taken by Zhao Zinan, right?"

  "Is this what you wanted to say? I understand."

  He still wants to be with her, doesn't he know that Zhao Yinan posting those photos will kill us? It seems like the only reason he wants to be with Zhao Yinan is because he really likes her, I couldn't think of a second reason. There's a sour taste in my heart.

  I didn't say anything more and turned around to leave.

  "Wait!" This time it was Ouyang Luo calling me, I turned around to look at him. The maple leaf-shaped earrings on his ears looked exceptionally dazzling.

  "Where's your wristband?"

  "I'll just throw it away."

  Ouyang Luo heard this and got very angry, walking up to me and saying "Who told you to throw it?"

  "That's already mine, I can do whatever I want with it. Or maybe that's not mine, that's what you're going to give to Zhao Zhiyan, right?" Now I don't know what's wrong, the fire of anger in my heart is burning more and more fiercely. I almost shouted when I said this sentence.

  "No, that's for you..."

  Before he could speak, I ran directly into the room and slammed the door shut with a "bang". I don't even know why I was so angry. After entering the house, I fell directly onto the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

  I suddenly thought of the envelope Shan Ruo Feng gave me, I wonder what he wants to tell me? I jumped out of bed, took out the envelope and carefully opened it.

  Ouyang Yue, by the time you read this letter, I may have already left. I'm glad to have met you and being with you makes me happy. You make me feel warm inside. I once wanted to be with you forever, but I know I don't deserve it. Because there's something I lied to you about. I don't want you to like me just because of that thing.

  Do you remember that night two years ago? Actually, the person who saved you that day was not me, but your brother Ouyang Luo. That night I happened to be riding a bike and saw three people being beaten by him on the ground, but he himself was also seriously injured and couldn't stand still. I walked over and saw you lying on the ground. I probably already guessed what had happened. Ouyang Luo asked me to take you to the hospital and not tell you about it, so the next day when you woke up, I didn't say much either.

  This thing has been buried in my heart, every time I see you, it's like I've said all this, but I haven't. I'm really sorry for deceiving you for so long! Please forgive me!

  Now that I've said this, I feel much more at ease. Thank you for telling me the distance between the North Star and the Big Dipper, they are really close. Ouyang Yue, I hope you can be happy forever, goodbye!

  Lonely as the wind

  After reading the letter, I was stunned on the spot. It turned out that Shan Ruofeng had always known that I liked him. Most importantly, the person who saved me two years ago was actually Ouyang Luo? Why? Why is it like this? When Shan Ruofeng rode his bike to send me home that day and asked if Ouyang Luo hurt me very much, he was referring to this matter.

  That day he was also badly hurt, why didn't I know anything about it, and yet I blamed him for not coming to rescue me. Just now I spoke to him like that, I think I'm so bad. I threw down the letter in my hand and rushed out of the room.

  Ouyang Luo, I'm sorry...
