Zhao Qingyu looked at Lin Yue, who had been feeling depressed since returning from the cafe. Doubts spread rapidly in her heart like vines growing wildly in spring. Her keen intuition told her that there must be something unusual between Lin Yue and the man who appeared after the press conference.

Zhao Qingyu walked lightly to Lin Yue's side, her eyes full of concern. She asked softly, "Yueyue, what's wrong with you? You've looked so worried since you came back. Who is that man? It seems like there's a lot of history between you two."

Lin Yue slowly raised her head, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and entanglement, as if it were a forest shrouded in mist, making it difficult to grasp. She bit her lip lightly and said slowly, "Qingyu, his name is Gu Ran, and we... our relationship is very complicated."

Zhao Qingyu raised an eyebrow, her curiosity growing stronger, like a cat whose interest was piqued. "How complicated is it? Tell me quickly."

Lin Yue sighed, a sigh that seemed to emanate from the depths of her heart, tinged with endless melancholy. She began to recount the story of her and Gu Ran, a poetic yet eventful journey. From their initial meeting, it seemed as if fate had arranged everything. On a sunny day, their eyes met in the crowd. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and everything around them blurred.

The ambiguity that followed, those fleeting feelings, were like a spring breeze, gently caressing the heart, leaving one feeling both sweet and uneasy. Then, for some reason, she chose to return home to avoid Gu Ran. It was a helpless choice, and the pain in her heart surged like a tide. Zhao Qingyu listened quietly, sometimes frowning, as if worried about their plight; sometimes revealing an expression of understanding, as if she could empathize with their struggles.

After Lin Yue finished speaking, Zhao Qingyu held her hand tightly, her eyes filled with seriousness and determination. "Yueyue, listen to me. Life is so short. It's not easy to meet someone you like who also likes you. You can't always avoid it. You have to face your heart calmly and at least don't leave yourself with any regrets."

Zhao Qingyu looked at Lin Yue with a teasing smile on her face and said, "You have always been so decisive and courageous, but now you have become so hesitant and timid. This is not like the Lin Yue I know! Could it be that love can really make people lose themselves?" She shook her head gently, with a hint of doubt and confusion in her eyes.

Lin Yue felt a surge of mixed emotions upon hearing this. She knew Zhao Qingyu was right. In the past, she had always been bold enough to pursue what she wanted, never fearing difficulties or challenges. But now, facing this relationship, she had become cautious, even a little afraid. She didn't know how to respond to Zhao Qingyu's words, so she could only lower her head silently, thinking to herself.

Seeing that Lin Yue was silent, Zhao Qingyu patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, "Don't think too much, maybe it's just a momentary confusion. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. After all, life is an adventure, and sometimes we need to take that step bravely to discover a better scenery." After that, she gave Lin Yue an encouraging smile.

Lin Yue listened to her best friend's words and fell into deep thought. Her heart was like a turbulent sea, a whirlwind of thoughts. She knew Zhao Qingyu was right, but did she really have the courage to face those obstacles? Those obstacles, like huge mountains, stood between them, making her feel incredibly heavy and powerless.

Her heart was filled with conflict and anxiety, as if two villains were constantly arguing with each other. One villain said, "Face it bravely and don't miss this beautiful love." The other villain said, "Those obstacles are too strong for you to overcome. It's better to give up."

After an intense mental struggle, Lin Yue finally made up her mind. She looked up at Zhao Qingyu gratefully and nodded in thanks. She knew she couldn't go on like this. She had to bravely face her heart and make a decision. Perhaps, only then could she truly find her own happiness.

Like a brave warrior, she was ready to face the upcoming challenge. She decided to find Gu Ran and have a good talk with him. No matter what the result was, she didn't want to escape like this anymore.

Lin Yue arrived at the park she and Gu Ran had once visited together. It was a place filled with memories. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating patches of light that seemed like a beautiful painting woven by nature for them. She sat down on a park bench, quietly waiting for Gu Ran to appear. A gentle breeze brushed her face, bringing a touch of coolness and gradually calming her mood.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yue finally saw Gu Ran. He slowly walked towards her, his figure standing tall in the sunlight. His eyes were filled with surprise and anticipation, like a bright star, illuminating the darkness in Lin Yue's heart.

Gu Ran walked up to Lin Yue and said softly, "Lin Yue, why are you here?" His voice was low and magnetic, like a moving melody that made people intoxicated.

Lin Yue looked at Gu Ran, her heart fluttering. It felt like a butterfly fluttering its wings in her heart, bringing an indescribable beauty. She mustered up the courage to say, "Gu Ran, I'm waiting for you. I, I want to have a good talk with you."

Gu Ran nodded excitedly and sat down next to Lin Yue. They were silent for a moment, neither of them knowing where to begin. A tense and delicate atmosphere hung in the air, as if countless words were flowing between them, yet they couldn't easily speak them.

Finally, it was Gu Ran who broke the silence. His eyes were filled with deep affection, like a deep lake, making people immersed in it involuntarily. "Lin Yue, I know you returned to China to avoid me, but I still want to tell you that I have always loved you."

Lin Yue's heartbeat quickened instantly, and she could almost hear her own heartbeat rumbling in her ears like thunder. She had not expected Gu Ran to express his feelings so directly, which surprised and moved her.

She lowered her head, not daring to look into Gu Ran's eyes, and whispered, "Actually, I like you too, Gu Ran." Although her voice was soft, it was full of determination, as if she was declaring her love to the world.

Gu Ran's face lit up with a delighted smile, a smile as bright and warm as a flower blooming in spring. He reached out and gently grasped Lin Yue's hand. Lin Yue felt the warmth of Gu Ran's palm, her heart filled with warmth and happiness. That warmth flowed through her body like a warm current, making her feel incredibly at ease.

"Then why do we keep avoiding each other?" Gu Ran asked, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness. He stared at Lin Yue intently, as if waiting for an answer.

Lin Yue sighed, a sigh filled with helplessness and melancholy. "There are so many obstacles between us, I don't know how to overcome them. I know I'm timid, so timid that I just run away." Her eyes revealed a hint of worry, as if those obstacles were an insurmountable chasm.

Gu Ran held Lin Yue's hand tightly, his eyes filled with determination and confidence. "As long as we love each other, there are no obstacles that cannot be overcome." His voice was sonorous and powerful, as if declaring to the world that their love was indestructible.

Lin Yue looked up into Gu Ran's eyes, filled with tenderness and love, as if they could see right through her soul. She asked, "But those obstacles are truly formidable. Can we truly overcome them? I don't want to be filled with hope only to be disappointed." Her voice was filled with unease, as if she were seeking comfort.

Gu Ran smiled, a smile as warm as the sun. "Yueyue, as long as we have confidence and courage, we can overcome it. We can't give up our love just because we're afraid of difficulties." His words were full of strength, making Lin Yue feel extremely relieved.

Lin Yue was deeply moved by Gu Ran's words. She nodded and said, "Gu Ran, you are right. We can't give up." There was a determination in her eyes, as if she was ready to face all challenges.

Gu Ran looked at Lin Yue, his eyes filled with tenderness and love. He gently stroked Lin Yue's hair, the action gentle and full of pity. "Yueyue, let's not avoid each other anymore, okay?" His voice was full of anticipation, as if he was waiting for a bright future.

Lin Yue nodded and said, "Okay, we will face all difficulties together from now on." Her voice was full of determination, as if she had found the direction to move forward.

The two hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's warmth and love. Their heartbeats intertwined, like a beautiful melody. They knew that the road ahead was long and would be full of difficulties and challenges, but they believed that as long as they loved and supported each other, they would be able to overcome all difficulties and reach the other side of happiness.
