Originally, she could still be patient, quietly and slowly develop a relationship with him in various details of life. After all, he is the one who is closest to him.

  She has both opportunities and confidence.

   But now, the situation is different, especially when she learns that there are so many people coveting her prey.

   Of course Jiaoyang has absolute self-confidence, but she will never allow, in the process of chasing her prey, to let herself and him become the talk of others.

  She was eager to prove one point: this is her person, so don't worry about others.

  Qi Ziyan stared at her in astonishment, looked at her for a while, and after confirming that what she said was not a joke, he stuttered: "Student Jiaoyang. We"

   "What's the matter, are you going to reject me? Do you want to say that you don't like me and mean nothing to me?"

  Jiao Yang looked at him, showing an aggrieved look that was not inferior to any innocent and kind-hearted little girl in TV dramas who finally mustered up the courage to confess, but was rejected.

"You don't like me when you teach me homework alone, you don't like me when you take notes for me, you don't like me when you accompany me to study by yourself, and you don't like me when you protect me among those gangsters. Everything is my own misunderstanding. I deceived myself and others. You mistook my friendship with my classmates for liking."

   "No, it's not."

   Qi Ziyan looked at the sad expression on her face, and felt a little unbearable in his heart.

"Student Jiaoyang, I admit that I do like you a little bit. From the first time I saw you before I transferred to another school, I felt that you had an inexplicable attraction to me, which made me unable to ignore you. But .We are still young now, so we should focus more on our studies. We shouldn’t think about anything other than studies. What’s more, puppy love is not allowed. I don’t want to hurt you.”

  Jiao Yang was lowering her head and raised her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and her eyes showed secret joy.

  However, she quickly put down the raised corner of her mouth, and raised her head again, showing a look of tears: "But... I never said that I want to have a puppy love with you."

   "What?" He was stunned again, and then heard her continue.

"I just couldn't help but want to tell you these things because I like you very much. I never thought about falling in love with you. It's just because I like you so much that I can't help but keep looking at you, and I I also promised Teacher Bai before that I would not fall in love prematurely. But because the feeling of crushing love is really uncomfortable, it has always made me worry about gains and losses in my heart. I feel that the impact is no less than that of puppy love. It is precisely because there is no I got you, so I can't feel at ease and keep thinking about it."

Jiaoyang raised his head, looked at him, and Chen Ken said: "So I think this way, we don't need to fall in love together. As long as you tell me, respond to me, and say that you like me in your heart, then spend more time with me. Stay with me, we study together, make progress together, and get admitted to the ideal school together. I don’t ask you anything, and you are the same, just accompany each other, and anything related to love can be discussed after we graduate.”

  Qi Ziyan nodded, understanding what she meant, and his cheeks finally turned slightly red because of her sudden confession.

   "So that's the case, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you, Jiao Yang."

   "It's okay, and now I'm happy."

  Jiaoyang smiled, grabbed Qi Ziyan's hand, and held it tightly in her own: "Because now, I know, you like me too, just like I like your feeling."

  Qi Ziyan smiled a little embarrassedly, and looked down at his own hand that was held by her.

Jiao Yang smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, we have confirmed each other's intentions now. In this way, I will feel at ease, and I will not worry about this or that in the future, and I can focus on it. Focus on studying, and strive to be able to still be with you in the future. And I promise you, I will not ask you to fall in love with me, and I will not have a puppy love with anyone. We will just be quiet and accompany each other. "

  Qi Ziyan nodded and smiled.

  Although it seems that she has never heard of the way of getting along from other places, everyone should have a special way of getting along that suits them best. Maybe for Jiaoyang, the current relationship is the best for her.

  As she said, now that they have shown their hearts to each other, they have determined that they will make progress together in the same direction. As for falling in love, wait until graduation, they both have a lot of time for each other.

  But Qi Ziyan thought over what she said just now over and over again, and still felt that something was not quite right.

  So after the two of them read their books quietly for a while, he couldn't help asking again: "Jiaoyang, why did you promise Teacher Bai that you won't fall in love early? Did he ask you anything?"

   "Oh, this one."

  Jiaoyang raised her head with a smile, and replied: "It was in the past. He saw that I was getting closer to those boys, so he came here to warn me."

   It turned out to be like this.

  Qi Ziyan nodded clearly.

  The next second, Jiao Yang suddenly stretched out her hand in front of him, curled the corners of her mouth, and said, "Since we've made up our minds with each other, holding hands is nothing, right?"

  Qi Ziyan was stunned for a moment, then looked at her: "But, didn't you say just now" that you just know what you want and don't fall in love.

   "It's just a handshake, not a hug, let alone a kiss," Jiao Yang looked at him innocently, "This is something that friends do, are you not even willing to give me this? Or do you say..."

  She lowered her head, showing the same sad emotion as before.

   "Actually, you don't like me at all. You just said that to me to comfort me and want me to study hard and not be affected by emotions."

   "No, no, it's not like this, student Jiaoyang."

   When Qi Ziyan saw that she was about to cry, he became anxious all of a sudden, and quickly reached out his hand actively, interlocking his fingers to hold her hand in his own.

  The corners of Jiaoyang's mouth curled up, and then she withdrew her smile, and it was as if she had been forced to coax a "hmm".

   Bowed his head and continued to read the book seemingly seriously.

   But on this side, Jiao Yang calmed down, but the mood of the people on the other side couldn't be calmed down for a long time, and there were waves of waves in their hearts.

  In the quiet library, everyone is studying quietly with their heads down, and no one disturbs anyone. Occasionally, they make a sound or two, but they are also cautious, fearing that they will affect the people next to them.
