Three Women in the Cage

Since the death of Yang's father, Yang Yu's relationship with Ma Mei, Tian Yun and Yang Su has been severed. They tacitly became the most familiar strangers and never asked about each other again.

Yang Yu never returned to the old house, and everything became a dusty memory.

Time passed quietly in everyone's indifference. This year, Xinxin was in her third year of high school and was about to take the college entrance examination. Yang Yu took it very seriously as this would be her last time as a college student.

Strangely enough, this year, Xinxin always received a lollipop or an orange in her desk box, only one each time. At first, she thought she had put it in the wrong place, but she received it every time for a month, which made her very confused.

Later, with a hint from her roommate, she found out that it was a gift from a male classmate. Xinxin noticed that male classmate for the first time. He was the discipline committee member of the class. There was always a ray of sunshine on his face, and when he smiled, his two little fangs were exposed.

When Xinxin looked over, a beam of sunlight came in from the window and shone on his fair face. Perhaps he had sensed the gaze, and he suddenly raised his head and met Xinxin's gaze.

He smiled at Xinxin against the light, and that smile was as hot as the light, making her heart feel hot.

At that moment, Xinxin felt the desire to get closer for the first time.

Just as she was trying to get closer and absorb the sunlight she longed for, countless terrifying and distorted men's faces suddenly appeared in front of her. Those faces had bloody mouths and approached her ferociously. She suddenly woke up and hastily withdrew her gaze.

No, she can't get close to them. Those are all traps. The superficial light is a disguise. One day it will turn into a knife and stab into your heart.

She didn't want those hypocritical things, those things were out of reach. Moreover, how could anyone like someone like her, with her low self-esteem and gloom? Even if someone liked her at first, after realizing her own cowardice, humbleness, and all her unbearableness, how much of that faint love would remain?

She didn't want to be like her mother, who had to stay with a man who didn't love her at all for her whole life. Not only did she waste her life, but she also suffered a lot.

Liking and loving are the culprits that lead you into a trap. She doesn't want to be imprisoned by liking and loving, and doesn't want to be trapped in it for the rest of her life.

So, she decisively refused to get close!

That boy was also strange. He had never confessed his feelings and never left a love letter in the desk box. He just put a lollipop in the desk box every day without getting tired of it, leaving Xinxin no chance to refuse.

There was no way, Xinxin could only ignore his existence, refuse all eye contact, and even take a detour if they happened to meet on the road. Yes, she was avoiding and hiding from him.

The boy's name is Xiao Li. He has a cheerful personality and is always surrounded by a group of boys. Those boys all know that he likes Xinxin, but they don't understand why he doesn't take the initiative to confess his feelings and instead likes her silently.

Xinxin couldn't understand this either. Since he didn't dare to confess, he should just like him silently. However, he let everyone in the class know about it.

This is embarrassing. Everyone knows it, but he hasn't confessed it. Xinxin puts it in a way that makes him want to stay away from her and stop liking her, but she has no reason to do so.

She really wanted to yell at Xiao Li: "Your love bothers me and affects my life. Please stay away from me..."

But she couldn't, she had no reason...

Although Xinxin avoided him and pretended he didn't exist, she would always run into Xiao Li and a group of boys on the way to the library or on the way to eat at the school gate. They would always pass by each other, and there would always be coincidences.

These hearts can be regarded as accidental coincidences.

However, there were several times when Xinxin and her roommates went to a restaurant near the school to eat, and Xiao Li and a group of men came in quietly right after them. They sat at a table far away from Xinxin to eat. When Xinxin and her roommates finished their meal and were ready to pay the bill, they were told that the bill had already been paid for by someone else. The boss pointed at Xiao Li's back and told her: "That boy had already paid for it when he came in. I thought you two knew each other..."

After several times, Xinxin realized that it was not a coincidence, but intentional. But she didn't want to accept the favor, because that boy always bothered her.

At this time, the roommates joked: "Oh, we will rely on Zhang Xin to go out for meals from now on, since someone will pay for the bill for free anyway..."

The roommates talked and laughed.

In fact, Xinxin heard a bit of ridicule in those laughs. After all, there were many good-looking girls in the dormitory, but she had never been one of them.

She always knew her own worth and never fantasized about having a love relationship in high school...

She didn't want to, nor did she want to try. Moreover, she knew that there was no such thing as true love. It was just curiosity and novelty.

With her introverted personality, she always sat in her seat, alone during class and after class. Perhaps, Xiao Li liked her just because he thought she was different from others and was curious about her quietness.

People always like different things, either out of curiosity or mischief. No matter what, when the veil of fantasy is lifted and the true ugliness inside is seen, they will discard it like a worn-out shoe!

She has never been able to deserve other people's love, and she is also afraid of being abandoned and despised. She has had enough of that feeling, and no one can make her humble.

As long as you don't touch it, you won't end up in a terrible situation...

At first, everyone in the dormitory couldn't figure out why Xiao Li liked Xinxin. She wasn't good-looking, her grades weren't top-notch, and besides being quiet, she didn't have any other strengths.

In order to test his feelings, Xinxin's roommate in the lower bunk deliberately approached Xiao Li.

That girl dressed up gorgeously every day, thinking she could charm millions of boys. She confidently said, "As long as a boy I like, there is no one who doesn't like me!"

Yes, she has always been very confident and is indeed beautiful. Xinxin knows that the words she said in the dormitory were all spoken to herself.

But, so what?

She had never expected to be liked or loved; those things were not what she pursued.

Tang Qing, who was in the lower bunk, started talking to Xiao Li as soon as she came out. She put the phone on speaker in the dormitory and deliberately said: "Hey, Xiao Li, since you like Zhang Xin so much, why don't you get one hundred and ninety-nine lollipops instead of one lollipop."

In order to prove his love, Xiao Li immediately agreed: "If she needs it, I will buy it right away..."

Xinxin disdained their conversation and wondered what it had to do with her. From beginning to end, she didn't say a word.

Tang Qing didn't want Xiao Li to agree, so he said unwillingly: "Of course you have to buy it in an hour. It's exactly one hour before the school closes. You have to go to a big supermarket one kilometer outside the school and buy it before closing. It proves that you like her. Otherwise, why don't you even dare to confess..."
