To be honest.

I’m so touched.

Thinking about it now, I might actually be a closet hopeless romantic.

Xie Yu didn’t seem to plan on hiding it anymore, pampering me with delicious food and drinks every day.

Even though he knew I didn’t need them, he bought me skincare products, makeup, and jewelry that looked incredibly expensive, without missing a single thing.

He even made sure to buy jewelry in antique styles as much as possible.

He knew I liked antique styles.

Maybe Xie Yu and I were being too lovey-dovey, and it was affecting others.

Early one morning, Xie Yu’s grandfather kicked both of us out of the house.

He told Xie Yu to drive me around downtown.

But Xie Yu took me to his old school instead.

He reached out to hold my hand, and this time, I didn’t pull away.

With our fingers intertwined, Xie Yu pointed toward a basketball court.

It was getting late, and there was only a young couple kissing down there.

Xie Yu: “Back when my roommates were dating, I would come here to play basketball.

“At one point, people almost thought I was gay.”

Me: “Then why didn’t you date?”

Xie Yu unscrewed a water bottle and handed it to me.

He smiled with a hint of playfulness.

“How could I?

“You haunted my dreams every single night. It drove me absolutely crazy.”

To be honest.

I’m so touched.

Thinking about it now, I’m probably secretly a hopeless romantic too.

He told Xie Yu to drive me around the city for a bit.

Instead, Xie Yu took me to his old school.

“At one point, people almost thought I was gay.”

Me: “Then why didn’t you date?”

Xie Yu unscrewed a water bottle and handed it to me.

He gave a slightly roguish smile.

“How could I?

“You haunted my dreams night after night. I was practically annoyed to death.”

To be honest,

I was so touched.

Thinking about it now, I guess I’m a hidden romantic at heart too.

Xie Yu didn’t seem to be hiding it anymore, pampering me with delicious food and drinks every day.

Even though he knew I didn’t need them, he bought me all sorts of expensive skincare products, cosmetics, and jewelry without fail.

He even tried to buy old-fashioned jewelry.

He knew I liked old styles.

Maybe Xie Yu and I were being too lovey-dovey, affecting others.

Xie Yu’s grandfather kicked Xie Yu and me out of the house early that morning.

It was late, and only a young couple was kissing below.

Xie Yu: “Back when my roommates were dating, I’d come here to play basketball.

“I almost got mistaken for being gay once.”

Me: “Then why didn’t you date anyone?”

Xie Yu twisted open a water bottle and handed it to me.

He smiled, a little devilishly.

“How could I?

“You were haunting my dreams every night; I was practically driven crazy.”
