Ye Jing sat alone on the bench on the side of the road, and from here she could see that the windows and doors of the villa where Lu Jingying lived were closed, and it seemed that they had not come back yet.

"Where will it be?" Ye Jing took out her mobile phone and looked at the campus BBS for no reason, although she felt that it was ridiculous to find her footprints in this way, but she still flipped through the messages so intentionally or unintentionally.

From time to time, international students with different skin colors passed in front of her, and even if Ye Jing occasionally raised her head to meet her gaze, she was just as indifferent as a passerby. The kind of strangeness unique to the dormitory area for international students can sometimes help campus idols like Ye Jing to temporarily avoid the ubiquitous media on campus. Even for those campus entertainment reporters, they treat this place as a concession and will not set foot in it easily.

"Maybe David is hanging around here because he wants to avoid the media......"

Just when Ye Jing was thinking this, she suddenly felt a tingling sensation as if she had received some kind of signal, and hurriedly raised her head, and sure enough, at the end of her sight, it was Lu Jingying walking slowly.

"Ah, Xiao Jing?!" met Ye Jing who came unexpectedly at the door of the house, which made Lu Jingying surprised and delighted, "Why are you here?"

"Uh...... It's nothing, I just want to come and see you......" Ye Jing subconsciously pinched her hot earlobe, "That...... You look tired......"

"Is there one?" Lu Jingying hurriedly wiped her cheeks when she heard this, in fact, due to her frequent work recently, she did look tired, but at this moment, Lu Jingying knew that Ye Jing must have meant something else, "Aha, you must have heard about that painting, so you can't wait to come to me, right?"

"Hmm......" Ye Jing felt like she had been caught, her face turned red for most of her face, and she wanted to explain that she was not so narrow-minded and didn't mind that she worked with David, but she couldn't say a complete sentence for a while, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that, then...... That you ...... David...... I mean......"

"I originally wanted to give it to you......" Lu Jingying interrupted Ye Jing with a smile, "You must have guessed, right? After all, that painting was named after you, and you wanted to ask on the day the exhibition opened......, right?"

"What?" Ye Jing didn't react for a while, "That's ...... The painting is a giveaway...... Gave it to me? really?"

"What?" Lu Jingying pursed her lips, "So you don't know?"

"No, no, no......" Ye Jing hurriedly denied it, "I really want that painting, it's just ...... It's just that I didn't dare to ask for it, after all...... After all, it's worth more than 10,000 now......"

"Hey......" Hearing this, Lu Jingying sighed, "I originally thought that I would give it to you after the end of the exhibition, but then I didn't want to be favored by the teacher and become a charity sale, but after several twists and turns, now there is such a commotion......"

"Huh?" Ye Jing didn't wait to digest the joy that came from the painting being a gift, and the sad look between Lu Jingying's eyebrows made her even more worried, "What...... What's wrong? Is something happening to that painting?"

Lu Jingying said helplessly: "The original purpose of the bazaar was to let those celebrities who came to participate in the art exhibition buy back the works with half buying and half donating, but David won the first prize, and he was a student, this kind of spending a lot of money made the school feel quite inappropriate, the student union has come forward and temporarily detained the painting, it seems that the transaction will be canceled, that is to say, for a while, the painting will not be able to give you away......"

"Huh?" Ye Jing understood what was going on with that kid's depressed face when he saw David just now, "No...... It's okay, I'm already very happy to hear you say you're going to send me...... This one...... It's not the worst now, after all, it's a favor bought by David for more than 10,000 yuan, you ...... If you really take ......"

Lu Jingying tilted her head and pondered for a while, it was really what Ye Jing said, so she smiled with relief, "Think about it, I really didn't think about it so much, I really didn't think about it so much, otherwise, what would I do to repay David's favor......"

Although the strategy of David, the rival in love, seemed to be blocked, Ye Jing was not happy at all. She knows Lu Jingying too well, she is not the kind of person who will easily accept the kindness and help of others, if she does it without any doubts, then she must treat the other party as her own.

Ye Jing realized with dismay that, at least, David really had a place in her heart......

"That...... I've always wanted to ask......" Ye Jing swallowed her throat and muttered, "You...... You and Davy ...... You and he are ...... Isn't it...... That...... That ......"

Ye Jing couldn't say the word lover after all, so she had to stretch out her thumb and compare the gestures of the couple.

"What are you talking nonsense......" Seeing this, Lu Jingying looked shy, and patted Ye Jing with disgust, "I hate it, when did you become so gossipy......

"No...... It's not ......" Needless to say, Ye Jing already regretted it, but she couldn't control her continued nonsense, "I'm just...... See you...... You two are always together ......"

"Cause...... Because I have to work......" Lu Jingying stammered rarely, "You...... Don't listen to their nonsense...... Besides, Dai ...... David...... He didn't say he liked me......"

Ye Jing broke out in a cold sweat, no, I wanted to ask if you like him, he doesn't need to ask if he likes you......

However, looking at Lu Jingying's reaction, it seems that there is no need to ask......

There was a numbness in the position of the heart.

"Multi-...... It's a good thing to make more friends......" Ye Jing smiled reluctantly, "Dai ...... David is also a very enthusiastic person...... How...... What's wrong?"

Lu Jingying was staring at Ye Jing, her expression could never hide her heart.

"You don't like Davy......" Lu Jingying sighed and came to a conclusion.

"I didn't ...... No......" Ye Jing didn't want Lu Jingying to feel that she couldn't tolerate people, "I...... I admire him, he's handsome, talented, and ......."

"Oops......" Lu Jingying interrupted Ye Jing coquettishly, "I didn't mean those ......"

Ye Jing pursed her lips, took a deep breath and asked word by word, "That...... What about you? Do you like him? I mean......"

"I don't know...... Ye Jing...... I really don't know......" Lu Jingying sighed softly and pulled Ye Jing to sit on the bench, "Maybe it seems to the people around me that I am indeed very close to him, I admit that I think he is good, but ...... I don't know how to describe that feeling, it always feels like I'm scared of something...... What do you think? Ye Jing, is that the feeling of love?"

Like I'm afraid I'm going to lose you?

I have always felt that Lu Jingying is a slender and sensitive girl, her heart is as beautiful as crystal but fragile, and she can only take care of her carefully. But I don't want to, in fact, I, the so-called boy, is not fragile and sensitive in my heart. We both crave love for each other, but in some way we are afraid of the sudden arrival of this feeling. For this will herald sacrifice, it will mean responsibility, and from then on, you will be completely trusting a stranger who has intruded into your life.

Is that person genuine to you? Does that person make you sad? Is that person really worth your serious consideration? Maybe you're just scared of the unknown future, what will happen if you go down this path? We're all afraid......

"But, I love you......"

"Huh?" Lu Jingying turned her head to look at Ye Jing, "What...... What?"

"I love you......" Ye Jing repeated, staring with bated breath, Lu Jingying, who was close in front of her, her beautiful eyes were wide because of surprise, and her temples were rosy because of shyness, she ...... It's always so beautiful......

"I ...... I also like ......"

"No, it's not liking, it's liking more than liking, it's love......" Ye Jing grabbed the conversation, "I just want to tell you, no matter what kind of malice this world is full of, no matter what life makes you experience or will experience, you don't need to be afraid, because I love you, this love is enough for me to stand in front of you forever, block all dangers for you, with me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything! I love you, Lu Jingying! I don't lose anyone, I love you!"

"Leaf ...... Ye Jing ...... "Ye Jing's almost crazy words did not surprise Lu Jingying, on the contrary, she unexpectedly felt a trace of calm, as if she knew all this a long time ago. The scenes with Ye Jing, whether it is a bit of joy or the warmth of the fragments, are gradually emerging at this moment, gathering together and washing her heart.

"You...... Finally......"

"I ......" Ye Jing, who came back to her senses, was also taken aback by what she had just said, "I...... I said......"

Lu Jingying raised her hand to stop Ye Jing, who wanted to explain, "......Remember what you said on the way to Crescent Island in high school?

"I'm ......" Ye Jing's mind was blank at the moment, and she could only watch Lu Jingying stand up from the bench in a daze, half-squatting in front of her, and holding her hands.

"Ye Jing, listen well...... Lu Jingying smiled, "I love you too, no matter what your love for me means, please believe that I also cherish you, there is indeed some kind of bond between us, as you said, I like ...... more than like"

Ye Jing suddenly felt that her eyes were hot, but in addition to being moved, it was more that she had a premonition of what Lu Jingying was going to say next......

If Lu Jingying was flustered and overwhelmed at the moment, or she was speechless and turned to leave, maybe Ye Jing would feel more down-to-earth, but now, she didn't know......

Before he got it, he was afraid of losing it, Ye Jing was far more vulnerable than he imagined......

"But Ye Jing ......" Lu Jingying hesitated and licked her lips, "Have you ever thought about this love, how should we respond, how to face it, and how to prove it?"

"We should ......" Ye Jing opened her mouth to say something, but before the words could be spoken, she dissipated into nothingness......

"It seems that you have thought about it......" Lu Jingying smiled, "There is no answer in the end, right?"

Ye Jing nodded helplessly......

"Ye Jing......" Lu Jingying cupped Ye Jing's cheek and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "You are just a child who has lost his way in the relationship, but now, let us get lost in this forest for a while, maybe one day, you will find an exit and no longer be confused, but before that, you can hold my hand, that way, you won't feel scared, right?"

"Lu Jingying......" Ye Jing's voice was a little choked, because she knew that she would never be able to leave that forest, but, "Thank you......"

"Thank you...... Lu Jingying raised her hand and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Ye Jing's eyes, "Like you, I will always love you......"
