Chapter 3122: Innocence 43
I imdiately stood up, only to see Dongyu suddenly walk onto the stage. He hugged tightly amidst the applause and cheers.
At the ti, I felt that even with so many people in the auditorium, the applause was not as warm as his hug.
After the recital, I was just about to pack up and go ho with Dongyu, who was waiting for at the school gate with Su Qi, when I thought that maybe this occasion would be the best ti for to reconcile with him.
Just as I reached the gate, I saw Su Qi waving at . I smiled as I walked over, only to be greeted by a couple of my fellow students. They stopped excitedly when they saw .
“Xiachun! Was that your boyfriend who hugged you on stage just now?”
I was startled and followed their gaze to Dongyu. I heard them whispering excitedly, “He’s so dashing! Xiachun, what’s your boyfriend’s na?”
“He…”
Hearing their discussion, Su Qi imdiately walked over and said unhappily, “Have you guys misunderstood? His na is Yin Dongyu, he’s not Yin Xiachun’s boyfriend. They are siblings, can’t you see that?”
“Ah…”
“Sheesh! I thought he was Yin Xiachun’s boyfriend, but it turns out they’re siblings!”
“Hahaha! Xiachun, don’t mind us!”
Hearing this, Dong Yu turned his face away expressionlessly.
I didn’t feel good hearing that either. I had no idea what Dongyu thought, but on the way ho, Su Qi was talking and laughing, while he only walked along by the side in silence.
Until we got ho, he had not said much to . Instead, he went back to his room and locked the door.
I stood in a daze outside his room for a long ti before returning to my room in a state of distraction.
Initially, I had been expecting the tension between us to ease over ti.
However, ti did not bring much changes to our tensed relationship. Instead, it brought a strange girl.
The first ti I saw that girl was during Dongyu’s 16th birthday.
During that winter vacation, the weather was especially cold. It was so cold that it could freeze a person’s heartbeat.
In those days, birthdays would usually involve booking a table and inviting a few good friends and classmates for a al. After dinner, we would go to the karaoke. Most of the ti, parents would be more indulgent on that special occasion, so we would get ho late.
Dongyu’s birthdays had always been celebrated at ho because he didn’t like too many people and crowded environnts.
He said that he wanted to have hotpot at ho for his birthday.
Early in the morning, I excitedly climbed out of bed and reached for the piggy bank on my desk. I smashed it and picked up the change inside. Among the notes and coins were two ten-dollar bills.
I thought to myself, having saved my pocket money for a year, I finally had a use for it!
When Dongyu celebrated his birthday as a child, I never rembered to give him presents. In my opinion, birthdays were aningful as long as the family celebrated it together.
However, in junior high school, the concept of birthday presents was gradually impressed upon .
After lunch, I took my bag of money and went to the cake shop. I ordered a 10-inch birthday cake and repeatedly reminded the shop to have “Happy Birthday to Dongyu!”written on it!
I wasn’t in a hurry to leave the store. I waited all afternoon for the cake to be ready. After counting the candles, I carried the cake ho.
At the door, I saw Dongyu—and an unfamiliar girl.
