"Su Hao, will you blame me?" Walking with Su Hao along the shaded path on campus, Liu Xiaoran's voice held a hint of nervousness.
"Blame you for what?" Su Hao asked, puzzled.
"Today, I announced our relationship without your permission. And I just snatched you away from Shuxin, am I very selfish?"
"How could that be?" Su Hao smiled: "Xuejie, you're overthinking it."
"Really not?" Liu Xiaoran stopped and looked directly at Su Hao.
"Su Hao, I know our relationship started very casually, developing to this point after only knowing each other for a few days. You must think I'm a casual woman."
"Xuejie, I didn't…" Before Su Hao could finish, Liu Xiaoran covered his mouth.
"Let me finish, okay?" Liu Xiaoran gazed deeply at Su Hao, gently caressing his cheek.
"Actually, I also think I'm a selfish and casual woman. Seeing that you look good, I got involved with you, and even kept saying I fell in love with you at first sight. Someone like me must be despised.
But Su Hao, do you know? When you got hurt because of me in the prop room, I suddenly understood the feeling of a fluttering heart. It's very rash, isn't it? But that's just the kind of casual person I am.
And just now, when I saw your clothes torn and you surrounded by those women, I suddenly had a strong desire, the desire to have you all to myself.
Su Hao, I want to snatch you away from those women! I want you to stay by my side forever! I want you to walk with me, shop with me, watch movies with me, do everything I want to do with me.
But the only thing I don't want to see is you with other women. Su Hao, I am just that selfish!" After Liu Xiaoran finished speaking, she slowly withdrew her hand.
"Xuejie, are you confessing to me?" Su Hao grabbed Liu Xiaoran's hand and asked softly.
"Yes, it's a confession. I might, be in love with you." Liu Xiaoran lowered her head, revealing a bitter smile: "To say the word 'love' after only knowing each other for a few days, I'm truly casually beyond help."
"It is a bit fast." Su Hao nodded and grinned: "But coincidentally, I'm also a casual person."
"Su Hao…" Liu Xiaoran looked up, staring blankly at Su Hao.
"Xuejie, I really don't think you're casual, nor do I think you're selfish." Su Hao reached out and gently hugged Liu Xiaoran: "I just think you're very cute."
"Really? Is that truly what you think?" Liu Xiaoran leaned against Su Hao's chest, murmuring.
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, let me tell you a story, a Zhonghua (China) love story." Su Hao's lips curved upwards as he slowly said:
"A long time ago, there were seven fairies in heaven. They adored the beautiful scenery of the human world, so they agreed to descend and bathe. Next to the forest where they bathed, there was a village, and in that village lived a bachelor named Niu Lang.
Niu Lang raised a divine old ox, and that old ox knew about the fairies descending. It instructed Niu Lang to steal one of the fairies' clothes.
After bathing, the fairies returned to heaven, but only the fairy without clothes couldn't go back. At this moment, Niu Lang appeared with the clothes.
Xuejie, if you were that fairy, seeing Niu Lang holding your clothes, what would you do?"
"Of course I'd beat him up and get my clothes back!" Liu Xiaoran clenched her fists and said without hesitation.
"But in the myth, that fairy was very grateful to Niu Lang for returning her clothes, and after a pleasant conversation, the fairy fell in love with Niu Lang and lived happily ever after with him."
"How could that be?" Liu Xiaoran's eyes widened: "Didn't the fairy know that Niu Lang was the one who stole her clothes?"
"She certainly knew, but she still fell in love with Niu Lang. So Xuejie, you don't need to feel sorry for yourself.
Niu Lang stole the fairy's clothes for his own selfish desires, wasn't he selfish? The fairy just chatted with Niu Lang for a while and decided to be with him, is there anyone more casual than the fairy?
But in Zhonghua (China), this story is widely popular, its status similar to 'Romeo and Juliet' in theater. Compared to the fairy, Xuejie, you are already very conservative." Su Hao gently pinched Liu Xiaoran's cheek and chuckled.
"Su Hao, thank you for comforting me like this!" Liu Xiaoran looked up, tears welling in her eyes.
"It's not comfort, I truly think that." Su Hao gently wiped the corner of Liu Xiaoran's eye: "Selfish or generous, casual or conservative, it only depends on different standards. At least in my heart, Xuejie is neither selfish nor casual, no one is more perfect than Xuejie."
"Su Hao… I love you!" Liu Xiaoran murmured, then suddenly kissed Su Hao's lips.
Bright sunlight spilled down, shining on Liu Xiaoran's heart. She hugged Su Hao tightly, feeling his heartbeat echoing in her ears.
Their lips only parted when they were almost out of breath.
"Su Hao, when did you become so good at coaxing girls?" Liu Xiaoran rested her chin on Su Hao's shoulder and slowly closed her eyes.
"You forgot, I can write scripts, so coaxing girls is naturally a piece of cake." Su Hao played with Liu Xiaoran's pink hair: "Actually, I also wanted to ask, Xiao Ran Jie, when did you practice your lines so well? That long confession, your acting was truly unparalleled."
"I wasn't acting! Those were my true feelings!" Liu Xiaoran patted Su Hao's back, displeased.
"I know." Su Hao gently kissed Liu Xiaoran's forehead: "What I said, was also from the heart."
"Su Hao, what should we do? I don't want to go watch a movie with you anymore, I want to do other things with you." Liu Xiaoran touched her forehead and suddenly said.
"Who said you have to watch a movie in a movie theater?" Su Hao countered with a smile.
"You're right." Liu Xiaoran's lips curved upwards: "Su Hao, you're truly a pervert."
"Then, beautiful Miss Liu Xiaoran, would you be willing to go to the cinema with this pervert to do other things?" Su Hao stepped back and bowed in a knight's salute.
"Of course, who made me a pervert too." Liu Xiaoran smiled, took Su Hao's hand, and cheered happily: "Two perverts are going to the movies together!"
Her voice echoed through the sky, startling a flock of birds. Liu Xiaoran felt like a bird herself, and Su Hao was her blue sky.
"Xuejie, what movie tickets did you buy?"
"Why ask that? You won't be watching the movie anyway."
"Oh right, then let me tell you a story, the sequel to Niu Lang and Zhi Nv, guaranteed to be incredibly vulgar."
"Okay."
...
"Peilin, weren't you taking leave today? Why are you here again?"
Inside the bustling cinema, a female employee in uniform looked at Peilin next to her, puzzled.
"I originally wanted to go out with a friend, but he was busy today, so I came back to work." Peilin said helplessly.
As her voice fell, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
"Su Hao Ge?"
