Tang Xinxin was taken aback upon hearing these words.

A blush quickly spread across her cheeks.

She instinctively lowered her head.

But the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

Her eyes sparkled with a mixture of surprise and shyness.

"Really...?" Tang Xinxin's voice was soft.

With a hint of barely concealed joy.

The image of Luo Yuting carefully selecting furniture and meticulously arranging potted lilies involuntarily flashed through her mind.

This beautiful scene is like a warm current.

It instantly flowed into Tang Xinxin's heart.

She was deeply moved.

But gradually, the joy in her eyes faded away.

Instead, a deep sadness pervaded the air.

Her eyes dimmed.

His brows furrowed slightly without him even realizing it.

My heart was filled with endless self-blame.

She felt that her willful actions...

It must have deeply hurt Luo Yuting.

He put in so much effort, yet he was so self-righteous.

He squandered his true feelings.

It plunged him into a quagmire of sadness.

Thinking of this,

Tang Xinxin's heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand.

It hurts badly.

The security guard had been keeping an eye on Tang Xinxin.

He took in every subtle change in her facial expression.

His heart skipped a beat, and he secretly regretted it.

I realized I had been too talkative.

It might have stirred up some painful memories for the girl.

Tang Xinxin forced a smile.

He thanked the gatekeeper in a low voice.

There was a barely perceptible sob in his voice.

Then, she dragged her slightly heavy steps...

I walked step by step toward room 302 in building B.

With each step taken

The more guilt and unease one feels, the more intense the guilt and unease will be.

But her longing for Luo Yuting...

And yet, it compels her to keep moving forward.

After countless internal struggles and anxieties,

Tang Xinxin finally stood in front of the door of room 302.

At this moment, her mind was racing.

She kept imagining all sorts of scenarios of meeting Luo Yuting.

Taking a deep breath, Tang Xinxin used all her strength...

She raised her hand, and "thump, thump, thump," the knocking sound was exceptionally clear in the quiet hallway, just like the rapid beating of her heart at that moment.

Not long after, there was a creaking sound.

The door slowly opened.

The scene before her eyes startled Tang Xinxin.

Luo Yuting looked haggard.

The dark circles under his eyes resembled two dark shadows.

Her hair was messy and stood up wildly.

Stubble covered his chin in a wild, unruly manner.

He exuded an air of dejection.

Clearly, Luo Yuting has been living in a daze these past few days.

Absolutely terrible.

The moment Luo Yuting opened the door and saw Tang Xinxin,

He froze completely.

A flicker of disbelief crossed his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, a surge of surprise welled up in my eyes.

But this surprise was fleeting.

He quickly composed himself and regained his composure.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

The two of them just stared at each other silently.

Tang Xinxin looked at the utterly dejected Luo Yuting before her.

It felt like my heart had been stabbed hard by a sharp weapon.

A sharp pain struck, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

"Brother Yu Ting..."

Her voice trembled, filled with endless heartache and guilt.

"come in."

Luo Yuting's tone was indifferent.

You can't detect a trace of emotion in his voice.

Tang Xinxin's gaze followed Luo Yuting's retreating figure intently.

He slowly walked into the room.

What catches the eye is the room's pink and delicate decor.

Delicate floral curtains

Soft cartoon pillows

Elegant decorative paintings,

Every single one of them was an element she cherished during her teenage years.

But beer bottles were scattered all over the floor next to the sofa.

He seemed out of place in this warm and inviting atmosphere.

They lay there haphazardly, as if silently telling of Luo Yuting's pain and loneliness these past few days.

"Brother Yuting, I was wrong, I was really terribly wrong."

Tang Xinxin's voice trembled, filled with deep self-blame and regret.

At this moment, she knew perfectly well how passionately and sincerely Luo Yuting had decorated this little nest that held their hopes for the future; in contrast, she herself had been so willful, reckless, and self-righteous.

Guilt overwhelmed her like a raging torrent.

Unable to suppress the surging emotions within her, Tang Xinxin quickly stepped forward and hugged Luo Yuting tightly from behind.

His figure looked so frail at that moment, which made her heart ache even more.

This hug was filled with her apology, longing, and fear of losing her.

Immediately afterwards, tears welled up in her eyes.

Luo Yuting's back stiffened abruptly, and his body tensed instantly.

Tang Xinxin's actions were clearly unexpected.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, he slowly reached out his hand.

She gently pulled away the hands that were tightly embracing her.

The movements appeared gentle, yet they conveyed a sense of determination.

He turned around and looked directly at Tang Xinxin, his expression complex and unreadable.

As he raised his hand, his fingers gently caressed Tang Xinxin's cheek, his movements as tender as ever, as he slowly wiped away her tears.

But his voice was as cold as frost and snow on a cold night:

"You're not wrong, maybe I'm the one who's wrong. Maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part. You just don't love me that much."

Having said that, a bitter, self-deprecating smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

That smile was full of loneliness and sorrow.

Then, as if he had used up all his strength,

He took a step back, putting some distance between himself and Tang Xinxin.

Upon seeing this, Tang Xinxin felt a surge of fear that instantly spread throughout her body.

She frantically reached out and grabbed Luo Yuting's hand, her fingertips turning white from the force.

"Brother Yuting, I really know I was wrong. Please give Xinxin a chance. Please don't ignore me."

Her voice was choked with sobs, almost pleading.

Luo Yuting's cold and distant attitude

This completely panicked her.

In past arguments, no matter how angry he was,

It has never been so cold before.

"Xin Xin, let's take a break for a while."

Luo Yuting took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound steady, but his slightly trembling tone still betrayed the turmoil in his heart.

"Perhaps you have mistaken my long-term companionship for love, or perhaps your feelings for me are merely dependence."

He paused, his gaze fixed intently on Tang Xinxin's eyes.

It seemed he wanted to etch her image into his heart.

"If you still feel that you can't live without me after a few years, then let's get back together."

As he said these words, Luo Yuting felt as if his heart had been torn into countless pieces.

During this period, the pain he suffered almost consumed him; the heart-wrenching pain made him lose the will to continue living.

He had pondered this alone in the dark countless times, but he just couldn't understand why, while he was happily building a cozy little home for their future, Tang Xinxin was only thinking about tricking him into applying to Tsinghua and Peking Universities, and had never honestly shared her true thoughts with him.

In his mind, true love is unconditional trust between two people, and the constant urge to be together. But what he's experiencing now has completely chilled his heart and left him utterly exhausted.

At this moment, he felt that separating to calm down was perhaps the most rational thing to do.

"I don't want to be separated, not even if it kills me! Brother Yu Ting, I really can't live without you!"

Tang Xinxin screamed and cried out, tears streaming down her face as she nearly collapsed.

She gripped Luo Yuting's clothes tightly with both hands.

It was as if that was her last lifeline in this world.

"Now I realize that you've been silently protecting me all along. I was too presumptuous and foolishly thought you deserved better, but I ignored your true feelings."

Her voice was hoarse from overwhelming grief and emotion; every word seemed to be squeezed out from the deepest part of her heart.

"I was so wrong, Brother Yu Ting. I've decided, I want to be with you. Please, give me another chance!"

Tang Xinxin cried so hard she could barely breathe, her body trembling violently from the intense sobbing.

In her heart, this boy was the most important person in her life, and having been given a second chance at life, she absolutely could not lose him again.

Seeing Tang Xinxin's broken and desperate state,

Hearing her even say something as resolute as repeating a year of high school,

The defenses that Luo Yuting had been holding up in his heart collapsed instantly.

These days, he feels as if he is in the depths of hell.

Every minute and every second was a struggle in pain and torment.

Only he himself truly knows the bitterness of it all.

His love for Tang Xinxin had long since penetrated to the bone.

It transcends everything.

However, Tang Xinxin's previous behavior,

This convinced him that her feelings for him were not nearly as intense as his own.

In particular, she was able to accept that the two of them were not in the same school.

This made him realize that he wasn't irreplaceable in her heart.

His once proud self-esteem,

Faced with this profound love

It has long been worn down to almost nothing.

At this moment, he felt utterly defeated in this love affair, filled with frustration and helplessness.

Unable to suppress the grief in his heart any longer,

Luo Yuting's eyes instantly turned red.

Tears welled up uncontrollably.

Long-suppressed emotions erupted like a flood bursting its banks.

He let out trembling sobs.

His shoulders were shaking violently.

Tang Xinxin looked at the boy before her, whom she had hurt so deeply.

Guilt and love intertwined in my heart, forming an irresistible force.

She stood on tiptoe, her face streaked with tears.

She kissed Luo Yuting's lips without hesitation.

This kiss was filled with her deep affection, apology, and determination.

Between lips and teeth

Her hands trembled as she reached for the buttons on her blouse.

One, two… accompanied by the sound of clothes slipping off,

Her voice trembled with a sob, yet remained incredibly firm: "Brother, kiss me, take me. Let me prove how much I love you, I can't live without you."

At this moment, she only wanted to give her all.

Try to salvage this love that is on the verge of breaking down.

To soothe the wounds in the boy's heart.

Luo Yuting looked at Tang Xinxin, whose emotions were almost out of control.

Overwhelmed by a wave of heartache, self-blame, and panic, he was instantly overwhelmed.

His gaze fell on the clothes that Tang Xinxin had hurriedly taken off on the ground.

Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly bent down and picked it up.

His movements were gentle yet carried a hint of urgency.

He carefully draped the clothes over Tang Xinxin's shoulders.

It's as if they are protecting the most precious and fragile treasure in the world.

The next second, he suddenly stretched out his arms.

He held Tang Xinxin tightly in his arms.

It was as if he wanted to build an unbreakable barrier for her with his embrace.

To isolate oneself from all pain and harm.

His embrace was so tight it was almost a spasm.

As if afraid to let go,

Tang Xinxin will disappear from his world like a bubble.

"Heart, heart..."

Luo Yuting buried his face deeply in Tang Xinxin's neck.

Her lips trembled slightly as she murmured her name over and over again, her voice filled with endless pain and confusion.

What am I supposed to do with you?

These words were like a helpless cry squeezed from the depths of his soul.

Tang Xinxin's heart and eyes were filled with the man in front of her, whom she loved to the core.

The love in my heart is like a surging tide.

It completely overwhelmed her.

She slowly stretched out her hands.

She gently yet firmly cupped Luo Yuting's face in her hands.

It was as if they were holding the most precious and rare treasure in the world.

She tilted her head slightly, her eyes gently closed.

With endless affection and longing,

He kissed Luo Yuting's lips again.

This kiss was like a thunderbolt igniting a fire in the earth.

It instantly ignited the long-suppressed emotions between the two.

In that instant, the whole world seemed to stand still.

All that remained were their rapid breathing and pounding heartbeats.

Luo Yuting's body stiffened abruptly.

Then, an uncontrollable surge of intense emotion erupted within him like a volcanic eruption.

Without hesitation, he swung his hand back.

Strong arms steadily slipped under Tang Xinxin's knees and back, gently lifting her up.

I walked towards the bedroom.

Tang Xinxin's body swayed lightly in mid-air, and she subconsciously stretched out her arms to hug Luo Yuting's neck, her fingers tightly gripping his collar.

As she was being lifted up, Tang Xinxin's gaze inadvertently swept around her surroundings, and she saw that the entire bedroom was filled with vibrant lilies.

The pure white petals unfold layer by layer, as if telling of endless tenderness and love, and the elegant fragrance permeates the air, making people feel intoxicated.

These lilies are a silent testament to Luo Yuting's deep love for her.

Luo Yuting held Tang Xinxin in his arms.

He walked to the elaborately decorated pink lace bed.

He leaned down slightly and gently placed Tang Xinxin on the bed.

The pink lace bedding shimmered softly under the light, creating a dreamlike scene.

Tang Xinxin nestled in the soft bed, her eyes hazy and burning, gazing up at Luo Yuting.

Her cheeks were flushed like the sunset, and her lips were slightly parted.

With a slight pant, she murmured softly, "Brother, take me."

These brief words were like a spark igniting a powder keg, causing Luo Yuting's last remaining line of reason to completely collapse.

His eyes instantly became deep and fervent.

The body trembled slightly,

With endless longing and love,

He pressed forward.

At this critical moment, Luo Yuting frowned deeply.

His gaze was fixed firmly on Tang Xinxin's eyes.

He asked, enunciating each word clearly, "Xin Xin, tell me, who am I?"

Without hesitation, Tang Xinxin replied softly, her eyes sparkling with affection and trust, "Brother Yuting, you are the most important person in my life."

A complex emotion flashed in Luo Yuting's eyes.

He spoke again, his voice low and slightly trembling: "Are you really sure? Are you going to entrust yourself to me without reservation, without ever regretting it?"

Tang Xinxin nodded emphatically, without the slightest hesitation.

His eyes were full of determination.

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuting could no longer control himself.
