……” Ye Ling and Dai Xue fell silent for a moment. So, was An Xi’s excitement about the date itself, or about Yan Qing taking the initiative to ask her out… In the end, only Ye Ling enthusiastically clapped her hands to offer congratulations… Tomorrow, they were going on a date… Dai Xue put down her water glass, picked up a pen, and found herself somewhat distracted when looking at her workbook. “An Xi,” Ye Ling thought for a moment before finally asking the question that had been troubling her for a long time: “Do you think… speaking while looking into the other person’s eyes… is better?” These days, things were still the same with Yue Zijun. She tended to her flowers and plants, while he sat in a sunny spot reading a book, occasionally saying a few words to her, which she would softly reply to, though he mostly didn’t hear clearly. “Oh?” An Xi sat up, trying hard to look at Ye Ling across from her… indeed, it was still difficult to see her expression, no, actually impossible to see her face… Had Ye Ling recently heard something that made her want to try breaking through something? Well… she should encourage her to take this step! Thinking this, An Xi nodded, “Yes! Isn’t it more intimate to look into the other person’s eyes when speaking? I think eyes always reveal the thoughts in a person’s heart…” “……” It was precisely because they would reveal the thoughts in a person’s heart… Ye Ling seemed to slightly shrink back, trembling all over. “Then… if the other person is too ugly, wouldn’t the person looking feel disgusted?” The trembling Ye Ling, now in “vibration mode”, continued to ask… she didn’t want Yue Zijun to find her disgusting… “Ye Ling,” An Xi’s whisper was close at hand. Ye Ling looked up to see An Xi had somehow crawled over, now very close to her. “Ye Ling, are you willing to let me speak to you while looking into your eyes?” An Xi saw the hair clip she had given Ye Ling, placed by her pillow, and felt warm. She picked it up and placed it in Ye Ling’s palm, “… is that okay?” Looking into An Xi’s eyes, Ye Ling inexplicably thought of Yue Zijun… with the same gentle tone, encouraging her… could she take this step? An Xi saw Ye Ling was still shaking, clutching the hair clip tightly. She patiently waited, not expecting immediate success… An Xi patted Ye Ling’s hand, “It’s okay, take your time! We’re going to be best friends for life.” After saying this, she flipped back to her own bed. One day, Ye Ling would clip back her bangs… this is what An Xi believed. Their interaction was warm, but unbeknownst to them, Dai Xue, who had also climbed onto the bed, was feeling somewhat frustrated, burying her head in the blanket. An Xi seemed to be struggling with what to wear for tomorrow’s date… muttering to herself and seeming quite happy. She actually really liked An Xi’s personality and wanted to remain friends with her… but now, was she falling for Yan Qing? Stealing her best friend’s love interest wasn’t a good thing. — She had never been in love, she didn’t know if this was what love felt like. This feeling… like having a fever, with emotions boiling inside, about to burst out… was this what being in love felt like?
