After I jumped off the stage with a thud, another clatter sounded behind me. I was afraid of being caught, so I ran forward. No, to be honest, in this situation I have no choice but to run, and shame makes me completely uncalm.

…… What would Hyun Se-bin say? Jiang Zhen'er must have seen it, right?

Just then, someone blocked my path like a gust of wind. I almost collided with this guy because of the sudden braking.

"Ling Xiao, what's wrong with you? Calm down! ”

"You saw that too, right? There's no way I can do it anymore! I really can't do it anymore! ”

I yelled at him and pushed Hewon away. Then he sped forward at superhuman speed. Hundreds of eyes chased me, and all of them silently watched the absurdity of all this.

It was a mistake from the start! Such a ridiculous thing should never be done! It's me who's crazy, completely crazy! If you refuse in the first place, you won't meet with Hewon again, and you won't be hurt like a fool!

To be honest, I really want to turn back time. It's good to bear with it...... You shouldn't jump off the stage with a shout. I also messed up the natural pair competition, and this time Hyun Se-bin will really kill me...... I'm sorry, Shin Hyuk-won, but all I could do for you was to do this well, but ......

I was so tired that I couldn't breathe, but I couldn't stop. The lungs seem to be about to explode, but they can't stop here. If I had stopped now, my mind would have been more confused, and I would have been annoyed by what I had just done.

I really want to disappear like this. What I was looking forward to, what I was looking forward to, was so embarrassing...... The first love turned out to be just unrequited love...... I yelled and ran down the road like crazy, and I knew there were a lot of people watching me, but I couldn't care about that now. Anyway, I've already lost face at school......

Before I knew it, many vehicles were displayed in front of me like paintings. Seeing the intersection and the green light in the blindfold, I knew it was time to stop, but my body wouldn't listen to me. I was enchanted and suddenly made a terrible decision.

…… If you get hit like this, then you don't have to go to school or see people......

Then, without leaving a little room for consideration, my body quickly rushed towards the center of the crosswalk. Beep – My mind went blank with a horn sound.

"Are you crazy? Crazy, right? ”

I don't know who grabbed me by the waist with his long arms from behind and pulled me back from the crosswalk. The impact and the man and I both fell to the ground. In my panic, I gasped for air.

"What the hell are you thinking?"

The guy who looked at me panting in fright...... And the person who just saved me turned out to be Zhang Yuzhen.

My head was a mess, and when I came to my senses, I stood up and patted the dust on my body. Woojin seemed to sense that I was going to ignore him and leave, and grabbed my wrist suddenly.

"Let it go! Zhang Yuzhen, let me go! ”

Woo-jin, who jumped up, grabbed with all his strength as if he was going to break my wrist, and then tensed his face and silently pulled me towards the silent alley.

"Let go, what is this? How can you do that! ”

I shook his hand away and tried to push him out of the alley. But......

"Can you be honest, Ling Xiao, please!"

Woojin hurriedly grabbed me by the shoulders and shoved me against the wall.

"What are you doing here? What else do you want? What, you changed your mind? Want to accept my apology? ”

"Don't provoke!"

"I'm sorry, it's too late, Zhang Yuzhen. I don't want to apologize to you now. ”

"There is no need to apologize. You just have to listen to me. ”

"Say what? I don't have much to say to you! ”

"Ling Xiao, please...... I'm begging you! ”

Woojin grabbed my shoulders and shook them desperately. I yelled loudly in excitement, but only then did I regain consciousness and quietly shut my mouth. I didn't face Yuzhen, but towards the mouth of the alley in the distance.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"

Woo-jin's trembling voice drew my gaze back to face him.

"I've never ...... I've never been mad at you. ”

“……”

"I've been avoiding you...... I've been cold to you...... It's that I don't dare approach you. Because I'm afraid. ”

“…… I don't understand. ”

“…… You're the one who keeps me hesitant. ”

My heart instantly became stiff.

“…… See you one more time...... I want to see the second time, the third time, and even more and more. This desire to see you is getting stronger and stronger. ”

“……”

"That day...... It was the day I couldn't send you back...... You probably thought I was angry then...... But it's not like that. It's my feelings that have been hit too hard...... So I'm scared...... That's why I'm cold to you. ”

Woojin bit his lip and punched the wall next to me like crazy.

"I want to stay away from you, but why do you keep wandering around me? Why apologize to me? Do you know how tired I am? Why do you always provoke me? Why? ”

The earth-shattering screams kept me from breathing. The heart beats too fast and you can't breathe. I, after shaking off the hand that was surrounding me, opened my mouth:

"Okay, it's over now. I won't have any contact with you again. ”

Woo-jin's shouts made my ears ring all the time.

Now it's all over. The 100-day contract, the contract with no hope at all, ended like this.

I was just about to walk out of the alley when a weak voice stopped me.

Ling Xiao ...... I seem to like you. ”

Although I can't believe it, this is clearly Woojin's voice. My beating heart stopped.

"Ah,...... Zhang Yuzhen...... Don't be kidding, did you say the wrong thing? Nonsense, right? ”

Then came Woo-jin's sighing voice.

"yes...... I said the wrong thing. I'm talking nonsense. ”

My heart was beating again. I looked at Woojin in a daze, then turned my head around, and was about to drag my trembling legs out of the alley when Woojin suddenly ran over and hugged me from behind. He gasped as if he could no longer restrain his feelings, and his gasps touched my stiff cheeks coldly.

"I love you, I love you and I'm going crazy......"

It was that one sentence that took everything away from me. My present, and my future...... That utterance, all too true, made me understand for the first time what guilt is.

May 26 at 8 p.m.

To be precise, on the 60th day of the start of the contract, I heard Woo-jin's confession.
