Chapter 11: The realization

As a matter of course, Chen Li Xue couldn't forgive Min Sheng. Thus, she ignored him until they graduated from the third year of high school.

On the first day of the third day of high school, Chen Li Xue had told Lu An Jing and Miao Jing Hua that she didn't want to sit with Min Sheng. Fate. It was all fate. They were arranged to study in their previous class, the laboratorium, in which there could be four students in one table. The difference was this time, Miao Jing Hua and Lu An Jing didn't leave Chen Li Xue alone, instead they chose to sit together.

Since they were only three people in their table, there was one empty seat left. The fatty boy in the class who also had crush on Chen Li Xue whispered to Min Sheng. "Do you want to fight for her ? If you don't, then I will take this chance."

Min Sheng who still liked Chen Li Xue chose to fight for his chance so he took the empty seat. Annoyed ? Chen Li Xue felt so annoyed, but she didn't reject as well. For that, they were getting back to how they used to be.

There was once An Fei Yang, Min Sheng's cousin who was also their prefect, asked her. "Ah Xue, is there no possibility for you and Min Sheng ?"

At that time, Min Sheng was standing behind them, packing his stuff when An Fei Yang asked her.

She was silent for awhile. She recalled what kinds of inner struggles that she had recently. She answered solemnly "In the present, no. But I don't know about the future. There may be possibilities."

After her answer, weeks later, she had heard the rumour that Min Sheng was close to other girl.

Everything was confirmed on Min Sheng's seventeenth birthday party.

He had been in a relationship. It was such a right decision of her to reject the fatty's boy suggestion for holding the cake to surprise him. If only she said yes, she only made herself embarassed in front of his girlfriend, as well as family.

Honestly, at that time, she felt sour when she knew he had girl friend. Chen Li Xue even told Lu An Jing "I somehow felt hurt when I found out that he has girlfriend."

This feeling was a proof that she actually liked him, but why did she push him away ?

It was only years later that she understood.

She was afraid that she was only his second choice, after all, he had just broken-up with his previous girl friend. She was afraid that people could claim her as third wheel. She was insecure.

However, the most important was she couldn't forgive him for calling her b*tch. She could forgive him if he was her friend, but to be with someone who had degraded her, she couldn't.
