Chapter 2 One Little Cutie
Chapter 2 One Little Cutie
on the rostrum.
Tian Xiwei stared at the hourglass on the table.
As the last grain of pink sand fell to the bottom of the bottle, it also struck her heart hard, stirring up waves of disappointment and regret.
Suddenly, my heart ached.
Time: 7 o'clock sharp.
It's over. It's all over.
She knew Li Shen wouldn't have the guts to come, but she was still willing to take the gamble, even at the cost of exposing her private life to the public eye.
A sudden commotion arose from the audience, followed by a series of steady, powerful footsteps behind her.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
……
The footsteps grew clearer!
Her breath hitched, and her dead heart leaped into her throat once more.
The footsteps stopped, and a familiar voice rang clearly in her ears.
"Tian Xiwei?!"
A smile unconsciously crept onto Tian Xiwei's lips, but it vanished in an instant, replaced by resentment and anger, and a layer of mist rose instantly in her dark eyes.
She quickly raised her head, her two small, slender hands held high, fanning her eyes in an effort to stop the tears from flowing uncontrollably.
Li Shen stared at the girl's retreating figure, then tentatively called out again, "Tian Xiwei?!"
After a few seconds of silence, Tian Xiwei suddenly turned around, her eyes red as she glared at Li Shen, her two small fists clenched tightly, her clean nails pressing out a pale white.
Li Shen stared at her in astonishment, momentarily lost in thought.
Her watery eyes, sweet face, and the single dimple on her pretty face look exactly like Tian Xiwei from Earth's timeline!
Their names differ by only one character, and their appearances are almost identical.
At this moment, she was looking at him with a fierce yet adorable expression. Her chest heaved with anger, and even the oversized graduation gown couldn't hide her full curves.
Her figure is even sexier and more charming than Tian Xiwei on Earth!
Tian Xiwei plus version?
Upon first seeing his girlfriend, his heart suddenly warmed, perhaps due to lingering feelings from the original owner of the body. However, this brief moment of excitement was instantly dispelled by his indifference and aloofness as a transmigrator.
Tian Xiwei bit her lower lip with her white teeth, looking at Li Shen with resentment, her academic gown trembling as it covered her delicate body.
Li Shen stood with his hands in his pockets, calm and composed, his eyes fixed on Tian Xiwei.
The two stood facing off for more than 10 seconds!
Tian Xiwei exhaled, her lips trembling, "Who should speak first?"
"Anything is fine."
Tian Xiwei let out a breath: "Let me go first. In the preview that aired a few days ago, I only mentioned the fact that you unilaterally broke up with me and disappeared from contact with me six years ago. Apart from that sentence, I didn't say a single bad word about you."
However, I didn't expect netizens to label you as a scumbag, which has had a negative impact on you, and I feel very guilty about it...
Li Shen was greatly surprised.
Normally, if a woman sees her missing boyfriend reappear and there are no cameras around, she'll likely unleash a torrent of abuse and curses at his entire family. Even when cameras are on, she'll inevitably launch into accusations and attacks, venting her anger from a moral high ground.
However, the first thing this girl thought of was the trouble her actions were causing him, and she worried about the impact on him!
Tian Xiwei: "...Li Shen, this is my fault! I'm sorry!"
Li Shen looked at her with admiration. What a kind and lovely girl!
"What are you standing there for? It's your turn to speak!"
"Oh!" Li Shen's lips curled up slightly. "I don't care about them at all! You don't need to feel guilty, it's okay, I forgive you."
Tian Xiwei: "???"
Bullet comments:
[Who asked for your forgiveness? Tian Bao wants you to apologize to her!]
[This move is incredibly awful! /Impressive!]
[Apologize! Kneel down and apologize! /Angry]
[Apologize!]
[Apologize!]
……
"Shouldn't you apologize to me? Six years. In these six years, you know... you know how I've..."
Tian Xiwei suddenly choked up. She turned abruptly, her back to the camera, and quickly wiped away her tears. When she turned back, a stubborn smile appeared on her face: "I lost control a little, but it's okay now."
But the next second, tears streamed down her face, soaking her smile.
Li Shen took out a pack of tissues, pulled out one, and handed it over.
"I know you're excited, but don't get excited yet. Speak slowly, I'm listening carefully." Li Shen had a face that showed he was listening attentively to the lesson.
Tian Xiwei was puzzled: "???"
Why does it feel like he's not here to apologize or repent, but rather like the big gossip himself is here to eat his own melon?
What kind of attitude is that?!
Tian Xiwei forced herself not to cry out, maintaining her last bit of stubbornness, but her words were already incoherent: "I don't understand, I just don't understand, why can't things be settled face to face, why... why do we have to resort to cutting off contact..."
She imagined countless times how she would vent her anger if she saw this missing person again, how she would denounce his cowardly behavior, and how she would use her eloquence to beat him up and make him feel ashamed!
But when she actually saw her first love, all those well-thought-out, logically sound lines she had prepared, all those brilliant lines that she could still recite without regret, instantly choked up and turned into uncontrollable sobs.
Li looked apologetically at the girl in front of him. Seeing her tears, he kept pulling out tissues and handing them to her.
One... two... three...
Tian Xiwei wiped away her tears and snot again and again, neatly folded the tissues, and stuffed them into her pocket.
One... two... three...
Li Shen stared blankly at the tissues filling his shorts pocket, and the small hand that was stuffing tissues into his pocket.
"Zhen" is such a well-mannered girl!
Picking nose.jpg!
Li Shen gazed at the girl with tears streaming down her face. The lingering emotions from the original body were still present, and although his soul controlled this body, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and guilty because of his empathy.
It's like watching a fire from across the river, yet you can clearly feel the pain yourself!
He and this girl were complete strangers, but he was still willing to fulfill the unfulfilled obligations and responsibilities of his original self.
This is the transmigrator's respect for the original body, and also their adherence to their own personality.
"Tian Xiwei, could you please control yourself? My pockets are about to burst."
"Um?"
Tian Xiwei stopped sobbing again. She raised her big, wet eyes and tilted her head to look at her first love boyfriend in surprise.
Is this the second time he's addressed himself by his full name?
Why is he acting so strangely?
Their behavior, mannerisms, and speech all seem so unfamiliar!
The negative emotions were somewhat dispelled by the overwhelming doubt, and Tian Xiwei finally calmed down. With red and swollen eyes, she looked at him and said, "Okay, first of all, I need an apology."
"No problem. Regarding the unilateral breakup and the subsequent disappearance, it was my fault, I admit it! And—"
Li Shen paused, then continued in a firm and resonant voice:
"I will never run away!"
"I will take full responsibility!!"
Tian Xiwei stared at him blankly. Was this still the cowardly, timid, and irresponsible first love boyfriend in her heart?
He used to stutter when speaking in public.
But now, not only does he not stutter, but his voice doesn't even tremble at all, and it's full of power.
She had never heard him say anything like "never run away, take full responsibility" during their four years of dating.
A hint of surprise flashed in Tian Xiwei's beautiful eyes. Congratulations to him, he has finally made progress. Unfortunately, it's too late.
If he comes back one day and begs her to get back together, will she give him another chance?
For six years, she has asked herself this question countless times, but the answer has always been the same—give me a damn thing!
She, Tian Xiwei, loved passionately, and she also broke off decisively!
Breaking up requires a ritual!
She stood here simply because she needed this ceremony to finally resolve the knot in her heart that had been accumulating for so many years.
This ritual involves exchanging words until there is nothing left to say, and after all emotions have been exhausted, the two parties wave goodbye, go their separate ways, and have no further connection.
Li Shencheng sincerely said, "Just tell me how you need me to make it up to you. As long as it's reasonable, I'll try my best to compensate you. I admit my mistakes and I'll take responsibility for them."
She felt like she was hallucinating. Could he really be that responsible?
Tian Xiwei's tone softened: "Li Shen, are you serious?"
"Um!"
"Including everything?"
"Hmm! Oh right, except for continuing to love you, I can't do that."
Tian Xiwei: "???"
Everyone on the playground: "???"
Chen Lan spat in disgust, "Pah!"
The comments section exploded with anger:
[Ordinary men, who wants your love?]
[How can I talk to my goddess like this?]
[You're lucky Oda doesn't hate you!]
[Are you begging me to love her? How much alcohol did this guy drink before he got here?]
[If you can't do it, I will!!!]
