"See that man over there? He seems to radiate with an air of despair from head to toe,"

"Hmm... It's so intense, so suffocating. Let's not linger here, let's hurry back to the classroom,"

"Yeah... Otherwise we'll definitely get swallowed up by this sense of despair,"

"He's coming over. Run..."

The two girls hastily retreated into the classroom like they were avoiding the plague, I heard what they said but didn’t feel the need to get angry or go on a rampage,

I just trailed along, dragging my body that feels as heavy and sticky as slime, eyes wide open, and a blank stare ahead,

I can't believe at a time like this, I said something that landed me a fatal blow,

It's not only my life that's over, but my beautiful love as well,

We never even fully expressed our love, not even a single greeting was exchanged, yet I ruined it all myself,

If I get another chance, I will confess to her,

“What are the odds of that happening,” I laughed at myself sarcastically. My world seemed to fall into gray,

What is hope? What is happiness? What is the future? Those all seem so out of reach now,

As I looked ahead again, a pair of lush green eyes met my gaze. It was just a moment, but it was enough to captivate me, those compelling eyes made my heart palpitate,

She blinked, I saw disgust in her glance. This dangerous signal made me quickly shift my gaze,

After a moment or two, I looked at her again. Her hair, golden like the brilliant sun, two ponytails hanging to her waist,

Her petite figure, as if she were a young girl still blossoming,

Her skin so tender it could break at a touch, her slender waist so small it could snap with an embrace. Every detail was a testament to her unique beauty and figure,

Is this not the one I thought about day and night? When I saw her, a wave of heat rose in my body, no matter how much I tried to restrain it, it wouldn't be suppressed,

So I gathered my courage and approached her without care for the consequences,

Su Yuqian looked at me suspiciously, but soon her eyes turned icy again, she watched me on guard,

I nervously but hopefully said to her in earnest: "Su Yuqian...I know words can hardly explain my actions... because of my mistake, everyone thinks I already have a wife, but... that's not true... I like you, I want you to be...my... wife,"

Embarrassment made me struggle to say the last part, but thankfully, it came out,

I stared at Su Yuqian with hopeful eyes, but her face suddenly turned red, all the way to her ears,

I never thought Su Yuqian could be shy, I couldn’t help but smile, but the moment didn't last before a fierce blow to my stomach caused me to retch, my body uncontrollably fell to the ground,

"What on earth are you going on about?"

Su Yuqian's face was so red it was hard to tell if she was embarrassed or angry,

"…" I was in so much pain I couldn't get a word out,

"Must be a bug in your brain... you said something so disgusting..."

Su Yuqian's anger flared,

"I got goosebumps all over... Ew! So disgusting,"

Su Yuqian hugged herself like she had seen something repulsive and shuddered,

"I'm serious..." I tried to speak again but was met with another attack from Su Yuqian,

"Die!"

Su Yuqian kicked me in the face. The force of the kick made me flip over and I saw stars,

"Yuxi, sorry to keep you waiting," a short-haired girl who looks a bit timid ran over to Su Yuqian,

"Huh… That guy lying on the ground..."

She hid behind Su Yuqian, this girl is actually taller than Su Yuqian,

"He's a lunatic!"

Su Yuqian replied angrily.

"He seems to be in our class... I think his name is Xu Youjie..." The short-haired girl said timidly, looking at me.

"Better stay away from that despicable guy..."

"Mm-hmm..." The short-haired girl quickly nodded in agreement.

"Alright... let's hurry to the teacher's office... or we might get scolded,"

"Ah... we better move fast, then,"

Without even giving me a glance or concerning herself with my plight, Su Yuqian followed the short-haired girl and left. I knew I had again done something irrevocably foolish.
