Xiao Youran cried so heartbreakingly.
She had never cried so sadly before in her life.
She felt like her heart was breaking.
She wished so much that this was all a dream, and when she woke up, Xiao Xu still liked her.
Watching Xiao Youran cry, Xu Xiuwen couldn't do anything.
He felt really sorry for Xiao Youran, but he thought it was better to clarify things now rather than prolong the pain.
Xiao Youran stood under the tree crying, tears streaming down her face.
She cried pitifully, her tear-stained face looking beautiful, even though her tears had smudged it.
Xu Xiuwen sighed, but he didn't try to comfort her.
Xiao Youran cried for a long time, her eyes swollen and her tears dried up.
She finally stopped crying.
Xiao Youran wiped away her tears, then without saying a word, turned and left.
Her mood worried Xu Xiuwen.
"Youran, are you okay?"
Xiao Youran ignored him.
With her head down, the girl walked alone.
Xu Xiuwen followed her.
They arrived at the place where they had climbed over the wall earlier. Xiao Youran tried to climb a tree.
The terrain was elevated inside the school, and there was a flower bed here, making it easy to climb trees by stepping on the flower bed.
But Xiao Youran had never climbed a tree before, so her first attempt was a failure.
Xu Xiuwen immediately said, "Youran, let me help you up."
Xiao Youran said nothing, pushing his hand away and continuing to climb the tree.
She tried again and again, her hands becoming red from friction, but she didn't complain or give up.
Finally, she succeeded, leaning against the tree like a koala, climbing up, then hooking her foot and standing on the wall, then stepping on the osmanthus tree outside the wall and climbing down from it.
After Xiao Youran landed, she didn't say anything, just walked away.
Xu Xiuwen was worried about Xiao Youran's current state and followed her all the way.
Only after seeing her back home did he feel relieved.
Sadness and heartbreak were inevitable, but time could fade everything. In a while, Xiao Youran should be fine.
It's just that this year, she might not have a good time.
Xu Xiuwen sighed and turned to walk home.
As soon as he arrived home, Xu Xiuwen's phone rang.
It was An Shishi calling.
"Hey, are you home?"
"Yeah, I've been home for a while. Just talked to my mom, and then I missed my husband."
Xu Xiuwen wasn't in a good mood, but after chatting with An Shishi for a while, he felt much better.
An Shishi's good point was being understanding and having a pleasant way of speaking.
As soon as Xu Xiuwen spoke, An Shishi sensed that something was wrong with his mood.
But An Shishi didn't ask, instead, she said some other things, which cheered Xu Xiuwen up a lot.
And her voice was also very pleasant, making it hard not to feel happy.
After hanging up the phone, as soon as An Shishi put down her mobile phone, a girl who looked somewhat similar to her, but even more beautiful, pushed the door and walked in.
It was her younger sister, An Shuishui.
As soon as An Shuishui entered the door, she shouted, "Sister, you're back!"
Upon entering the room, An Shuishui first saw her sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time, then noticed the phone in her hand.
An Shuishui's eyes widened in surprise.
Even their parents didn't have a phone, yet her sister actually had one?
In An Shuishui's class, some of her classmates' parents had phones, which she heard were very expensive, with the cheapest ones costing several hundred yuan.
But now her sister had a phone too?
An Shuishui immediately noticed another unusual thing.
Her sister's clothes were so pretty, and they looked new.
She didn't recognize the brand, but she could feel that her sister's clothes weren't cheap.
An Shuishui was very familiar with their family's situation and knew that when her sister went out to school, their mom only gave her travel expenses and a tiny amount of pocket money.
So how could her sister afford a phone? Or buy clothes?
An Shuishui's mood, initially excited to see her sister, suddenly sank.
An Shishi immediately noticed her sister's change in mood.
She was clever, instantly guessing what her sister was thinking.
She didn't explain, instead saying, "Come here, I have something for you."
An Shishi opened the suitcase and took out several sets of clothes, laying them out on the bed.
"These clothes are for you, try them on, see if they fit."
An Shuishui's mood was low.
Seeing her sister's suitcase and the new clothes she took out made her feel even worse.
Although she hadn't been out, she had heard about some girls who went out and went astray.
She was worried that her sister had also gone astray to afford these things.
She'd rather not have them than see her sister go astray.
An Shishi looked at An Shuishui's expression and knew that if she didn't explain, she would surely start to overthink.
Her sister's concern touched her.
She smiled and said, "Don't overthink it, your sister hasn't gone astray. The phone, clothes, and suitcase were all bought for me by your brother-in-law."
"Brother-in-law?" An Shuishui's eyes widened.
An Shishi took An Shuishui's hand, pulled her to sit beside her, and said with a smile, "Yeah, your brother-in-law's name is Xu Xiuwen, he's my classmate, and he's really good to me. These clothes are bought for you by him. Oh, and he also prepared a gift for you."
An Shishi remembered the gift Xu Xiuwen gave her and quickly found the gift box from the suitcase.
An Shishi handed the beautifully packaged gift box to An Shuishui.
An Shuishui hesitated for a moment, unsure if she should open it.
"Go ahead, the things your brother-in-law gave you, don't think too much."
After hearing this, and being genuinely curious about the gift, An Shuishui opened the gift box.
When the box opened and she saw a beautiful pen lying inside, she was stunned.
"What a beautiful pen," An Shuishui couldn't help but exclaim.
"Do you like it? Your brother-in-law didn't know what you liked, afraid that you wouldn't like what he bought, he asked me to tell you, if you don't like it, he'll buy you something you like next time we meet."
Upon hearing her sister's words, An Shuishui immediately developed a favorable impression of this previously unknown brother-in-law.
Still, she couldn't help but worry, "Sister, you didn't get together with brother-in-law because of money, did you? Please don't force yourself."
An Shuishui expressed it tactfully.
But how could An Shishi not understand?
She smiled and said, "Your brother-in-law is the campus heartthrob, very handsome and talented, not only can he write novels, but he can also play the guitar and piano. Being with him makes me so happy, how could I possibly force myself?"
An Shuishui felt a bit relieved after hearing this.
Seeing the happy smile on her sister's face when she mentioned her brother-in-law, she knew her sister wasn't lying, she must have willingly chosen him, not out of obligation.
Since her sister liked him, An Shuishui didn't say anything more.
Her attention turned to the clothes, and she looked at the new clothes next to her, asking softly, "Sister, can I try them on?"
"These clothes are yours, if you want to wear them, go ahead, no need to ask me."
"Thank you, sister," An Shuishui smiled brightly.
An Shuishui immediately started taking off her clothes and then putting on the new ones.
After putting on the new clothes, she spun around in front of An Shishi and asked, "Sister, do I look good?"
An Shishi nodded, "You look great, exceptionally beautiful, our Shuishui is even more beautiful than a big star."
After hearing her sister's words, An Shuishui ran out of the room excitedly and then ran to her mother, showing off her new clothes.
An Shishi looked at the excited An Shuishui, a faint smile on her face.
She knew that all of this was brought to her by Xu Xiuwen.
So she felt incredibly lucky to have chosen Xu Xiuwen.
