Thinking back to how we were just playing cat's cradle, I naively thought she was just immature, just not good with words, just eccentric...
Ha ha.
Jiang Wanfeng only saw Li Qingran; because of the possessiveness in this woman, he could only see a gaze even more domineering than hers.
Li Qingran is more domineering than her.
Looking back now, that "thank you" was practically a sarcastic remark.
Thank you, thank you for what?
The thought of Li Qingran, who had been hiding behind the guise of a "bad relationship" for the past few dozen days, using her status as Lin Mo's deskmate to what might have happened between them... made her feel nauseous and gag...
Was it one-sided on the woman's part, or...?
Did Lin Mo hide anything from her? No, or yes? If he did, then had she already lost completely?
How could that be...?
At this moment, Shen Yanxi, who had been observing her condition, quietly joined her by the window, watching her angry and ferocious yet aggrieved sobbing...
"Senior, liking someone isn't about controlling and demanding..."
"It's about respect and acceptance."
"How could I not know?!" Jiang Wanfeng couldn't take it anymore. How could she be so stupid as to not be able to distinguish between right and wrong? "I just can't do it, I just can't do it, what do you want me to do?!"
"Oh!"
She slammed the window shut, the glass and window frame making a dull, violent thud before bouncing open again.
"Senior, he wasn't with any other girls..."
Hearing this, Jiang Wanfeng's heart, which had reached its bottom line, calmed down slightly.
"Senior Mingming, you're the closest to him, so why do you understand him the least?"
"Your senior must have gone to a lot of trouble just to show you concern, right?"
"No matter how unhappy you are, senior, you should think about how you were as a child..."
"It's not like I haven't cared about him..." Jiang Wanfeng said angrily, "I, I tried to find out his preferences, I even learned how to cook, I really tried..."
“True care is shown through actions. If you really care about your senior, you wouldn’t need to explain to Xixi.”
"..."
"Perhaps the senior's intentions were all good; she only felt that she was doing something for him..."
Shen Yanxi took a deep breath, the image of Lin Mo hearing her mention Jiang Wanfeng flashing through her mind...
Even he, who was usually calm and even able to tease Xixi, had a moment of panic.
"It's quite possible that what you consider concern is just trouble to others."
"Could it all just the senior's wishful thinking? Do other people really need the senior to do anything for them?"
In the end, nothing was actually done; all we did was compromise...
"Senior Wanfeng is also someone who craves love. Let Xixi guess, is it because you always think about how to understand the other person better, give them surprises, and become a better version of yourself, that you are doing it for their own good?"
"Does the senior really like that kind of senior?"
"That's not love. The senior is an orphan; he's a hundred times more lacking in love than the senior... People like that are used to forgetting themselves. He probably wouldn't even consider his own feelings when faced with the senior's admiration. He'd only be thinking about how to make the senior happy, how to prevent her efforts from being wasted. But actually, he only felt your efforts, but didn't experience them..."
"But I had no choice but to pretend to enjoy it, encouraging my senior to continue her self-righteous self-pity..."
"You seniors don't even understand, yet you act like you know everything. You're all idiots."
Shen Yanxi shook her head and sighed. Her troubled little face then turned angry. She pouted and stomped her foot on the floor angrily.
"idiot!"
That jerk did it on purpose, deliberately throwing this problem at Xixi because he can't solve it himself. How awful!
Even though you know it's unsolvable, you still insist on being stubborn and don't even think to change the way you interact with your senior...
Looking at Shen Yanxi, who seemed even angrier than herself, Jiang Wanfeng felt her own emotions sinking.
Thinking back on what the girl said, it seems, it seems, that's really true...
Lin Mo has always indulged her since childhood, something she has always known. So why does she think he will be different now?
It's actually the same thing, except she needs him to give in in her own way—by bullying him, threatening him, and forbidding him from disobeying her...
It turned into wanting to express affection, hoping to get closer to him, and not wanting to be separated from him.
Taking advantage of his indulgence,
Isn't this another kind of "compromise"?
But...
"Senior, did you understand?"
"He and Li Qingran..."
So, all they seemed to notice was the aloof senior...? Shen Yanxi was somewhat surprised; she hadn't noticed anything amiss with the others...
"Just like how many people like the female senior, the male senior definitely does too. He's already quite famous in our grade!"
"You're very aloof, senior, but he isn't, is he...?"
"Speaking of which, could it be that you yourself raised him to be like this, senior? Raising him from a young age, shaping his personality..."
"Neither proactive nor refusing, yet enjoys taking responsibility?"
Shen Yanxi tilted her head and asked a question.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanfeng's breath caught in her throat, and she almost choked...
"Senior, Xixi has a question for you: why won't your senior tell you how he feels about you?"
"Because he...has someone else outside..."
"No! I've already said, at least not yet!"
Based on Shen Yanxi's observation, with so many beautiful girls surrounding him, all within easy reach, if she were Lin Mo, she would want to take them all home.
Lin Mo's ability to endure it shows she's a ruthless person...
"It's because your senior has already shown you so much care and concern!"
"He has no idea how to give you something even better."
"People who lack love from childhood are like this: vague, hard to explain, and like to bury themselves in their work. Hmm, just like my senior."
"Is that so..." Jiang Wanfeng's initial surge of anger seemed to dissipate under the girl's gradual, unraveling guidance.
Just thinking about Li Qingran's words, "I will win," makes me feel uncomfortable all over, so angry I'm trembling...
"But I still can't help it. There are other people who might like him, how can he do this... disgusting..."
"Hey, hey, senior, that's just how you are. You're exaggerating. He's not like he's your possession..."
"How do you usually put up with things? Why don't you just work twice as hard? Not causing him any trouble is the real way to care about him, isn't it?"
“Normally…” Jiang Wanfeng’s face suddenly turned red.
"Hmm? What does Senior usually do?" Shen Yanxi made an eight with her small hand on her chin, pretending to be deep in thought.
"Normally... I rely on..."
"what?"
That's how it is...
Jiang Wanfeng hesitated for a moment, then thought about it. Shen Yanxi's words made a lot of sense. Wondering if there were any other solutions, she decided to... whisper in his ear...
Upon hearing Jiang Wanfeng's whispered words, Shen Yanxi's face turned ashen.
"Waaaaah, my senior is so scary!"
"Hey, what's wrong...?"
"Anyway, if senior thinks it's effective, then we should work even harder... Xixi thinks this problem is too difficult..."
Seeing that Shen Yanxi was frightened and turned to run away, Jiang Wanfeng quickly grabbed her.
"Don't tell anyone, especially Lin Mo."
"Mmm! Xixi is very tight-lipped..."
"Then, what should I do..." Jiang Wanfeng frowned, and sighed softly.
She wasn't someone who couldn't accept criticism; Li Qingran's reaction had indeed been quite a shock, but...
She had no reason to be so afraid, except for Lin Mo's admirers.
Anger should not be directed at Lin Mo.
"Xixi doesn't know." Shen Yanxi shook her head. "Only senior can do this kind of thing herself."
"For example, right now Lin Mo is on the track outside, running the 800 meters, and he even made a bet with a bunch of physical education students..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Wanfeng stood up, preparing to leave quickly.
Halfway there, she paused at the doorway, then went back and took a small notebook from a pocket in her clothes.
That was her love journal, but at this point, it's probably useless.
Since everything is about accommodating him, it will only embarrass him...
"This is for you."
"Huh? What is this..."
"I guess you could call it...a love letter."
After hearing what you said, I think my feelings might really be twisted...
"But, liking it is definitely not wrong, I've written it all in here."
If there are any mistakes, let's correct them one by one.
What's left for her now is no longer simply a matter of whether their feelings are mutual...
It is war.
Love is war.
The other party clearly lacked her resources, yet still came forward to declare war on her. What reason did she have not to retaliate...?
Before Shen Yanxi arrived, she cried for so long, but there were only three things she was struggling with.
Who's competing with her for it?
Can she win against him?
What exactly went wrong with her?
With Shen Yanxi's help, she finished agonizing over her decision, but there was no time for her to cry.
While others are still catching glimpses of Lin Mo's affections, how can she be crying here?
Lin Mo might not even know, might not even know, the danger around him...
It seems I've vaguely understood something.
If you like someone, it doesn't mean you have to crave their reply, you don't have to hold onto their heart, and you don't have to pay attention to them all the time.
Attention and concern are different.
As long as you care when necessary,
For example, run to the playground right now, stand at the finish line, and cheer loudly for him...
But she didn't expect him to pause his breath during a tiring and tense match to respond to her cheers.
...
Holding her notebook, Shen Yanxi followed closely behind Jiang Wanfeng as they slowly made their way to the playground after Jiang Wanfeng left.
The notes were written very neatly, showing a girlish heart; she recorded her longing and anticipation for Lin Mo every day.
Thinking back to what had just happened, Jiang Wanfeng was initially so hesitant, conflicted, and tormented, but upon hearing that Lin Mo was in trouble, she suddenly felt enlightened and resolutely left.
"How could I possibly... let this go?"
