Chapter 56: Alienation

Entering the last semester of the third year of high school, Shen Yuan's mental state is very tight. She was reluctant to spend her time on anything other than studying, so when her English teacher asked her to represent the school in an English speech contest, her first reaction was to refuse.

She and He Youxin's oral skills are good, and in the past, there were any single competitions, and the teacher basically chose one of the two of them, and if it was a two-person competition or a group competition, they would be arranged to go together. This competition was a two-person competition, and it was difficult to find a more suitable candidate after Shen Yuanyuan refused, so the teacher called her to the office to do some ideological work.

didn't want the teacher to be embarrassed, so Shen Yuanyuan finally agreed.

All this changed in He Youxin's eyes, and it became - Shen Yuanyuan didn't want to go to the competition with me, so he wanted to refuse, but he had to agree when the teacher called the office.

This is very different from the Shen Yuan who likes to revolve around him in his memory, I don't know when she started to gradually move away from him.

Before the day of the competition came, He Youxin chatted with Wei Yi once, and he asked her how Shen Yuanyuan had been recently.

Wei still didn't know why, "It's not much, she's fine." ”

"I mean, how do I think she doesn't like me anymore."

"That's why she doesn't like it." Wei still replied, "She participated in the art festival that winter for you, but you don't even remember that it was her birthday, and from then on, she didn't seem to like you very much." ”

"That's it?"

"Of course it's not just that. But I'm not a curl, so why don't you ask her directly if you want to know. ”

He Youxin didn't ask any more, thanked him and left.

In the past, he never took emotional matters very seriously. He thinks that love is just love, and it has nothing to do with getting married and starting a family in the future, so of course he won't put too much thought on these things. He knew that Shen Yuanyuan had always liked him, and he also liked Shen Yuanyuan a lot, and it was precisely because he liked it that he didn't want to talk to her about the kind of love he understood - that was not a good way to fall in love, he knew it.

As for why he asked her on her birthday last year if she wanted to be together - it wasn't what he asked at all, it was their roommate chatting that day, he confessed that he liked Shen Yuanyuan, and his roommate had to snatch his mobile phone and send Shen Yuanyuan such a sentence to the past, which made him half angry.

But then Shen Yuanyuan didn't agree, the explanation became redundant, he simply didn't say anything, and he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.

He could feel that Shen Yuan was changing, but he couldn't find the source of this change, perhaps, he should really take the opportunity to go out to compete together and ask her well.

The day of the competition was a Saturday, and He Youxin, Shen Yuanyuan, and other students from other classes who participated in the competition set off from school and rushed to the competition place by bus. After all, they didn't know each other very well with people from different classes, and when he offered to sit with Shen Yuanyuan, Shen Yuanyuan didn't say anything, just nodded, and agreed. After sitting down, she has been listening to music with headphones on, and she doesn't seem to have any desire to communicate. He Youxin kept looking at her side face, trying to find a chance to speak, but he couldn't open his mouth to disturb abruptly.

When Shen Yuanqian turned his head by chance, what he saw was He Youxin's appearance of having something to say but not knowing how to speak.

She took off her headphones and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

He Youxin has always been a direct person, and since he has the opportunity to speak, he will definitely not be awkward not to say it, and asked directly, "Don't you like me anymore?" ”

Shen Yuanyu was stunned by his question.

- How do you want her to answer this?

So she had to tilt her head and frown, making a question mark face expression, "Why do you ask this?" ”

"I mean, don't you hate me anymore?" He Youxin also realized what an unanswerable question he had just asked, so he had to change the meaning of the question and asked again.

"Nope." Shen Yuanyuan still felt a little inexplicable, and before He Youxin could talk about the relevant topic, she suddenly remembered something, and took out a notebook from her backpack. "That's right, by the way, we did the script again, and the teacher changed a paragraph for me before leaving, and I almost forgot to tell you."

He Youxin looked at her as if she was indeed very serious, and silently swallowed back what he originally wanted to say.

They started the manuscript, she was attentive and attentive, but he was absent-minded and kept thinking about other things, so much so that he made mistakes several times. When she was done, she put on her headphones and listened to the song again, and he stopped talking.

- It seems to have become very distant.

He Youxin couldn't figure out why Shen Yuanxuan didn't seem to be a person who was "synchronized" with him, as if she was several stages beyond him.

INTERVIEWER Was it because of the death of my father that I had to become mature?

- Or ...... She met someone new.

Thinking of this, He Youxin suddenly remembered the boy they met when they went to play billiards a long time ago.

- Could it be that the person and Shen Yuanyu got acquainted because of the events of that day? Or is it something that has happened to her in these days that he doesn't know, and what people he has met that he doesn't know.
