Chapter 215 The Relationship Between Guan Ren and Luo Xiaobei

Gu Youli was originally a good student.

Good students are unlikely to be voyeurs.

But now, she's in a relationship and is considered a bad student.

So it's perfectly normal for a bad student to pay attention to the boy they like during PE class.

……

In the previous physical education class, Gu Youli was playing badminton with her classmates.

After all, summer is coming, and even the little pear blossoms want to ride the summer breeze and drift around occasionally.

Gu Youli only played for a short while.

As I played, I started to feel a sense of emptiness inside.

After thinking about it, I realized it was because I hadn't been thinking about Guan Ren for a long time.

So she looked left and right, then looked around in all directions.

Her slightly high ponytail bounced as she searched the playground as far as she could see, finally recognizing his clothes on the distant grand staircase.

However, the faint joy of feeling instantly at ease lasted only a moment.

The next moment, Gu Youli felt her heart skip a beat. She stared blankly as the boy who made her so anxious and insecure lowered his head and quickly touched the forehead of his childhood sweetheart in front of him.

……

After that, this scene, along with Luo Xiaobei's earlier confession to himself, replayed in Gu Youli's mind for a long time.

Even at school, she tried her best to remain calm.

But as soon as she got home, Gu Youli couldn't help but open Baidu and search for all sorts of things.

Is it normal for childhood sweethearts to kiss?

Seeing someone say it was normal, Gu Youli felt relieved.

But then I saw that it was about childhood sweethearts, and my heart started racing again.

Looking quickly at the other answers, Gu Youli frowned slightly when she saw words like "romance," and then searched again.

Is it normal for childhood sweethearts to kiss each other on the forehead?

This time, many more people said it was normal, and Gu Youli breathed a sigh of relief again.

However, some people still mentioned things like "it was normal when they were young" and "they generally don't do that when they grow up."

Tsk…

What's wrong with these people...?

She didn't ask about my age, so why give such a specific answer...?

Gu Youli's face darkened, and she searched again.

[Childhood sweethearts have always been very close, even sharing a bed. The sweetheart has a crush on the boy, but he's unaware and hasn't shown any reciprocation. Furthermore, the boy also has a crush on his deskmate. Given this background, is it normal for the boy to quickly kiss the sweetheart's forehead one day?]

This was probably the fastest Gu Youli had ever typed; she even hurt herself from using two fingers.

Unfortunately, after Gu Youli nervously pressed the search button...

The search results were scattered and fragmented.

The results were not very relevant to the question Gu Youli wanted to search for; the most relevant searches were for "childhood sweethearts," and even novels were found.

A prompt appeared on the screen:

The phrase "no table" and any words following it were ignored because Baidu's search limit is 38 Chinese characters.

"..."

Therefore, Gu Youli had no choice but to give up.

Then, after agonizing over it alone for two days...

Faced with her deskmate's proactive concern, she finally mustered up her courage.

While the two were taking out the trash and slacking off, resting on chairs in the convenience store, he directly asked Guan Ren the question.

……

“I saw you kiss Luo Xiaobei during PE class that day.”

"Cough cough cough!..."

"..."

To be honest, Gu Youli felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Guan Ren choke.

Is he... feeling guilty?

Could it be that even he himself thought that kissing someone on the forehead was not a normal gesture between childhood sweethearts?
But he did it anyway.

why?
Could it be that he... he and Luo Xiaobei...

As the saying goes, a woman is at her smartest when her man cheats on her.

Although Guan Ren has not yet cheated on his wife.

Gu Youli is not his woman yet.

But due to her innate talent, Xiao Lihua's mind becomes exceptionally perceptive at this time.

They are also particularly sensitive and vulnerable.

Fortunately, Guan Ren's subsequent behavior made Gu Youli realize that she had probably overthought things, and she felt a little relieved.

"Bah bah bah!"

He was clutching the bottle, his face filled with bitterness.

"Is this even fit for human consumption? I'm never buying Red Scream again... Huh? Sister Gu, what were you saying just now?"

"..."

Guan Ren opened his innocent eyes, and after a moment of silence, Gu Youli pursed her lips and repeated:
"I said... I saw you... kiss Luo Xiaobei during PE class, right?" "Oh, right."

Guan Ren nodded calmly, then a hint of helplessness appeared on his face:
"That's just how Xiao Bei is, she has a childlike mentality. When she wants to be pampered, she either wants to be held or kissed. Sigh, sometimes I can't do anything about it."

"Eh…"

They not only kissed, but they also hugged?
Upon hearing this, Gu Youli felt both relieved and somewhat confused.

Fortunately, Guan Ren didn't seem guilty and appeared to have no other choice.

What's confusing is that, even so, knowing that the boy she likes had kissed and hugged another girl still made Gu Youli feel a bit unsettled.

"you…"

She opened her mouth:
"She...does she often make you do this?"

"How can it be!"

Guan Ren shook his head repeatedly:

"Just occasionally."

It's just that it happens often and occasionally.

But to be fair, compared to the frequency of hugs, Guan Ren is indeed very affectionate towards Luo Xiaobei.

If I do the math, not counting last year, there have been four whole months this year, and we've only kissed five or six times.

Compared to the average of about 0.7 hugs per day, that's really not much.

After hearing his answer, Gu Youli fell silent for a short while.

"Guan Ren..."

After a while.

Gu Youli raised her small face again, her long eyelashes fluttering uncertainly:

"I want to ask you something."

"You ask."

"Are you...?"

"I'm not!"

"?"

Guan Ren answered the question without even hearing it, which surprised Gu Youli, who then pressed him for an answer:

"Then have you...?"

"I don't!"

"Na Luo Xiao Bei..."

"I have no idea!"

"..."

Guan Ren's three-part feigned ignorance was still too ahead of its time.

After being stunned for a while, Gu Youli realized that he was deliberately being mischievous when he grinned. She immediately frowned and angrily raised her little pink fist to punch his shoulder.

As a result, Guan Ren easily grabbed his wrist.

He then took her other hand and held it in his clasped hands, smiling as he looked at her.
"Youli, whatever you want to ask, I just want to tell you one fact: Luo Xiaobei and I are definitely not a couple in a romantic relationship."

"..."

Gu Youli looked at him.

Seeing that his resolute eyes did not waver at all, she felt a strange panic in her breathing. She shook off his hand slightly and smoothed the hair beside her delicate ear.

"I understand... I should go back to the classroom now..."

……

Carrying the empty trash basket, Gu Youli walked back to the classroom, her ears feeling hot.

That bad guy…

He actually took it so seriously to explain to himself that he and Luo Xiaobei weren't a couple...

Isn't this just another open declaration that he's still dating her?

In Xiaolihua's opinion, this was almost the second time he had confessed his feelings to her, after he wrote her a note.

Gu Youli quietly glanced at Guan Ren's profile.

Hmm... I wonder what it would feel like to be kissed by Guan Ren, like Luo Xiaobei did...

"?!"

Gu Youli was startled.

Why would she suddenly have this idea?

Ever since realizing she liked Guan Ren, Gu Youli has been unsure what the next step in puppy love would be.

And now it seems that the next step I want is to get Guan Ren to kiss and hug me like he did with Luo Xiaobei?
Has she...has she become that kind of superficial girl?
Suddenly, Gu Youli's mind flashed back to the time in the bathroom when she couldn't help but think of Guan Ren, and she had made some small gestures by pressing her hand to her heart...

Then, looking nervous, he shook his head to himself.

Will not!
She's not some shallow girl!
But then again, the thought of Luo Xiaobei and Guan Ren already doing those superficial things made Gu Youli feel a tingling, soreness in her chest.

Tsk, let's try to think about something happy...

For example, it seems like this was the first time he called her "Yuri" just now?

“…young pear…”

Recalling his soft call, the girl, who had only just begun to taste the sweetness of love, felt a surge of warmth and comfort. A faint smile touched her thin, soft lips, revealing a delicate and bright shyness in the setting sun.
