Chapter 111 Model Couple
At the same time, the relationship between Su Qing and Lu Xingchen is gradually warming up in the campus atmosphere. In the eyes of teachers and classmates, they are a "model couple".
However, Su Qing and Lu Xingchen both know that although the surface is bright, the inner feelings are still constantly testing and growing. They are trying to adapt to the changes brought about by this relationship, hoping to find true happiness in each other's company.
During a class outdoor expansion activity, Lu Xingchen was fortunate to be invited to participate and was assigned to the same group as Su Qing.
They actively cooperated in the team and completed various tasks in a tacit understanding. The last task was a trust game, where everyone needed to stand back to back with each other, then fall backwards with trust and be caught by their companions.
When it was Su Qing's turn, she was a little nervous, but when she turned around and saw Lu Xingchen's determined eyes, a sense of trust surged in Su Qing's heart. She smiled slightly, put down her nervousness, closed her eyes, and fell backwards. In an instant, she felt a pair of strong hands holding her steadily, and felt Lu Xingchen's presence, and her heart was warm.
"It's okay, I'm here." Lu Xingchen whispered to comfort her, his eyes full of concern.
Su Qing opened her eyes and saw Lu Xingchen's face, and a wave of tenderness surged in her heart. At this moment, she realized that her feelings for Lu Xingchen had slowly changed from the initial dependence to a deep emotion. She nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Lu."
As the activity progressed, the atmosphere became more and more lively, with laughter and joy. The tacit understanding between Su Qing and Lu Xingchen also surprised other students. Qu Meijun watched from the side, secretly sighing in her heart, and seemed to be happy for their changes.
After the activity, everyone sat around the campfire, sharing their experiences and feelings. Jiang Ming sat aside, with a smile on his face, but still a little disappointed in his heart. He secretly glanced at Su Qing and Lu Xingchen, and felt bitter when he saw their intimacy.
"What's wrong with you, Jiang Ming?" Qu Meijun noticed his emotions and asked softly.
"It's okay, I just feel a little emotional." Jiang Ming sighed, trying hard to hide his emotions.
"Do you still like Su Qing?" Qu Meijun said bluntly.
Jiang Ming was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Yes, but I know she is with Lu Xingchen, I can't entangle her anymore."
"If you really want to pursue her, you have to be brave." Qu Meijun encouraged, "You can try to confess your love, maybe she won't necessarily reject you."
Jiang Ming shook his head, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "I don't want to be an obstacle between her and Lu Xingchen. I just want her to be happy."
By the campfire, Su Qing and Lu Xingchen's conversation deepened. Lu Xingchen gradually opened his heart and shared his dreams and future plans. Su Qing was attracted by his ideals and determination, and her heart was full of admiration.
Lu Xingchen smiled slightly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "With you by my side, I feel I can do anything."
Su Qing's cheeks flushed slightly, and her heart was filled with sweetness. She realized that the relationship between her and Lu Xingchen was gradually heating up, as if there was an invisible force that tightly connected them.
Everyone gathered around the bonfire, and the atmosphere became more and more heated. Jiang Ming finally plucked up the courage to confess to Su Qing. He took a deep breath, walked in front of Su Qing, and said in a trembling voice: "Su Qing, can I talk to you?"
Su Qing turned around and saw Jiang Ming's expression, her heart tightened. She knew that this might be Jiang Ming's feelings for her, but she already had Lu Xingchen in her heart, so she still smiled and replied: "Of course, Jiang Ming."
Jiang Ming took Su Qing to the side, and his heart was in turmoil. He tried to calm himself down and said, "I want to tell you that I have always liked you. I know you are with Lu Xingchen, but I still hope you can seriously consider my feelings."
Su Qing felt nervous. She knew Jiang Ming was sincere, but her heart had already been inclined to Lu Xingchen. She sighed slightly, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "Jiang Ming, I appreciate your kindness and cherish our friendship, but my relationship with Lu Xingchen is very important to me now. I hope you can understand."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Jiang Ming's face, but he tried to keep smiling: "I understand, thank you for telling me frankly." Although he felt a little unwilling in his heart, he also knew that feelings cannot be forced.
Back to the bonfire, Su Qing felt a little heavy. She looked at Lu Xingchen and found that he was discussing the highlights of the party with his classmates. Su Qing walked over, patted his shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "Jiang Ming just said something to me."
Lu Xingchen was slightly stunned, his eyes showing concern: "What did he say?"
"He... likes me, but I told him I was with you." Su Qing said truthfully.
Lu Xingchen's expression softened, with a hint of relief in his eyes: "You handled it very well. I believe you will make the right choice."
"Thank you, Xingchen." Su Qing felt Lu Xingchen's support and felt warm in her heart. She knew that even if there were so many interferences from the outside world, her heart was always with him.
Qu Meijun also began to have new thoughts. She found that her appreciation for Jiang Ming was deepening. Although it was out of jealousy of Su Qing at first, as she communicated with Jiang Ming, she gradually saw his strengths. Jiang Ming treated his friends sincerely and worked seriously, which gradually attracted Qu Meijun's attention.
One day, Qu Meijun plucked up the courage and took the initiative to find Jiang Ming. She was a little nervous: "Jiang Ming, how have you been recently?"
"Not bad, thank you." Jiang Ming responded with a smile, and was also surprised by Qu Meijun's initiative.
"I want to talk to you about Su Qing." Qu Meijun went straight to the point with seriousness in her eyes.
Jiang Ming was stunned, then nodded: "Okay, go ahead."
Qu Meijun hesitated for a moment and finally said, "I know you like Su Qing very much, but I want to tell you that you are also very good and deserve better." There was a sincere concern in her tone.
Jiang Ming was a little surprised, and felt warm in his heart: "Thank you, Qu Meijun. Your words make me feel very relieved."
"Actually, I was also thinking that if you are willing, I can work hard with you to pursue your dreams." Qu Meijun smiled slightly, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
Jiang Ming looked at Qu Meijun, and his heart moved slightly: "You mean, we can work together?"
The hint just now was already very obvious. Qu Meijun nodded, her face already blushing.
Qu Meijun and Jiang Ming also began to get closer and closer. They studied together, participated in various activities, supported each other, and gradually became another popular pair on campus. Although Jiang Ming still had Su Qing in his heart, he also began to realize that Qu Meijun's company made him feel different happiness.
