Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

So Liang Ming didn't rush to interrupt, but instead took small steps and approached little by little.

It is summer now, and the cicadas in the trees are chirping. A gentle breeze is blowing, carrying wisps of willow catkins.

The girl's hair was also blown by the breeze, revealing a shy blush.

The boy's voice was a little hesitant as he spoke of the beauty of youth and the infatuation of young love.

The two stood under the big tree, one listening and the other talking about the beauty of youth.

"Xiaojing, I've actually liked you for a long time. Although we're not in the same class, I would secretly come to see you every day during breaks."

"I've seen you at your desk, frowning as you work on test questions!"

"I've also seen you in the hallway, holding an English book, diligently memorizing vocabulary!"

"I've also seen you running on the playground, sweating profusely!"

"I know your favorite breakfast is rice noodles with soy sauce, your favorite color is pink, your favorite songs are by Teresa Teng, and your favorite drink is the bagged milk sold near the school gate... I..."

Listening to the boy gradually reveal his preferences, Liang Jing blushed and said:

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Actually, she did remember the boy in front of her.

The most handsome boy in the next class, and the president of the school's student council.

She had seen the boy hosting school events and talking eloquently on stage more than once.

No young girl is immune to the allure of love.

There were no young girls who admired strength.

It can be said that boys are the object of many girls' affections at school.

Liang Jing also had feelings for the boy.

Previously, she was focused on getting into the provincial political and legal university and had no interest in dating.

She came to school today, intending to share her happiness with her classmates and teachers. Unexpectedly, the boy approached her and said he wanted to tell her something he had been keeping to himself for a long time.

Liang Jing could already roughly guess what the boy would say.

But she was still a little nervous and a little expectant, and somehow followed the boy to the big willow tree on the playground.

After hearing the boy describe her preferences, Liang Jing couldn't help but ask a question.

At this rate, the boy might talk until dark before they even get to the point.

"I, I, I want to say..."

After Liang Jing interrupted him, the boy became even more nervous, stammering and unsure of what to say.

Did you get into university?

Seeing the boy's nervousness, Liang Jing looked directly at him and chuckled softly.

During the summer vacation, she worked at Xiangmanlou Restaurant, where she learned a lot about doing business and how to read people's expressions.

Seeing the boy's nervous look, Liang Jing knew she had to say something to help him relax.

Otherwise, he'll be even more speechless later.

really.

When Liang Jing asked this question, the boy stopped stammering and nodded, saying, "I... I passed the exam!"

"Oh? Which university did you get into?"

Liang Jing then asked.

"I... I got into the provincial university of political science and law!" the boy replied hastily.

As he said this, a confident smile appeared on his face.

In the entire township middle school, very few students were admitted to the provincial university of political science and law.

He has worked incredibly hard for the past three years to get into this university.

"You also got into the provincial university of political science and law?"

Upon hearing the boy's words, Liang Jing showed a look of surprise and asked.

She never expected that there were other students in the school who, like her, had been admitted to the provincial university of political science and law.

This may mean that she will have a fellow alumnus from her hometown at the provincial university of political science and law in the future.

This will undoubtedly alleviate a lot of Liang Jing's anxiety as she prepares to leave for university in the provincial capital.

Most importantly, this person is a boy she also has feelings for.

"I heard you mention before that your dream university is the Provincial University of Political Science and Law, so..."

The boy blushed and said in a low voice.

His meaning was already quite clear.

The boy wanted to attend the same university as Liang Jing; his intentions were crystal clear.

Hearing the boy's words, Liang Jing understood what he meant.

But seeing how shy the boy was, and that they hadn't gotten to the point yet, Liang Jing decided not to wait any longer.

She looked directly into the boy's eyes and asked bluntly, "Do you like me?"

Upon hearing this, the boy seemed to hear some heavenly music, and he froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

His face immediately turned even redder, like a ripe apple.

The boy was surprised that Liang Jing was even bolder than him and asked so directly.

Immediately, the boy felt that if even Liang Jing dared to ask so directly, he should be bolder too.

You can't let other girls be bolder than you.

"Xiaojing, I like you!"

Immediately, the boy mustered his courage and confessed his feelings to Liang Jing directly:

"I've liked you for a long time. I want to go to university with you, work together, and even live together..."

Hearing the boy's words, Liang Jing's face also turned slightly red.

Although she said she spent the whole summer working, she learned a lot about society, interpersonal relationships, and how to read people's expressions.

But it was also the first time someone had confessed their feelings to me.

Hearing the boy's confession, her face flushed red.

Especially after noticing the boy's burning gaze, Liang Jing couldn't help but take a step back.

"I don't want to start dating so soon. University is the time for studying. I want to study hard, get good grades, and get a good job after graduation!"

"I want my parents and my brother to be proud of me!"

After a few breaths, Liang Jing spoke again, addressing the boy.

Upon hearing Liang Jing's words, the boy was stunned, and a look of disappointment involuntarily appeared on his face.

Is she rejecting me?

That's right. She's so beautiful, academically gifted, and now she's been admitted to a university specializing in political science and law. How could I possibly be worthy of her?

"Yes, I'm sorry, I..."

Somewhat disheartened, the boy blushed and was about to apologize and say he wouldn't bother Liang Jing again, but the words just wouldn't come out.

He really liked Liang Jing, and he really didn't want to give up like that.

At worst, I can just be a secret admirer for the next four years of university, silently protecting him.

Thinking of this, the boy prepared to speak.

Before the boy could even speak, Liang Jing said, "But we can be friends first. You have excellent grades, and we're from the same hometown and alumni. You'll have a study buddy when you study at the Provincial University of Political Science and Law!"

"Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you!"

The boy was stunned when he heard Liang Jing's words.

Should we start as friends and study partners?

Is Liang Jing's suggestion good?

Of course!
