As a result, my social relations with my classmates, which were already very poor to begin with, plummeted to non-existent, no one would come near me.
The boys didn't dare to get close to me, being fearful of arousing suspicion.
The girls alienated me. Some of them probably thought it was ridiculous and unorthodox to be dating during junior high school.
Some of them felt that I'd tainted Su Qi's reputation and didn't deserve to be friends with them.
But I didn't care.
At that point, I looked to Su Qi as my salvation. I was hoping that he would lead me out of my unusual situation. I was hoping that he would take me away from the despair that Dongyu had brought into my world.
I wanted to love him.
I really wanted to fall in love with this sunny and handsome boy. Then, I would be able to stand in front of Dongyu boldly and confidently, and say with a smile, "Brother, I'm in love. This is my boyfriend."
