Right Here Waiting For You - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Someone Confessed to Li Yanmo

As soon as the school bell rang, the students rushed out of their classrooms like a strong tide. Ning Tiantian stood at the front of the school gate and was trying to stand on tiptoe to find Inky among other children’s parents.

When all of the parents and children were almost gone, Ning Tiantian still couldn’t find Inky. Desperate with anxiety, Ning Tiantian sneaked into Li Yanmo’s school with Er Ha, and the school security didn’t notice her.

She didn’t know how to find Li Yanmo’s classroom. Looking at so many teaching buildings, she bit her lips, thinking where she should be going.

At this time, Er Ha suddenly barked at a far place sharply and was running in that direction.

Ning Tiantian patted Er Ha’s head and looked in that direction. She saw that Inky was pushing his bike, where it was locked up.

“Ink–” As soon as Ning Tiantian was about to run over to Li Yanmo happily, she saw a girl with long hair carrying Snow White’s schoolbag standing in front of Li Yanmo, gently touching the cuff of Li Yanmo’s school uniform.

Ning Tiantian stopped abruptly, standing beside the bushes in a small garden. Her clear eyes were fixed on them.

Xia Ji flushed, looking down at the ground. She was awkward and unsure of herself. She said to Li Yanmo, “Li-Monitor Li, I lost my key to the bike lock. Can you please take me home today? I have a spare key at home.”

Li Yanmo didn’t even look at her. He shook off Xia Ji’s hand and said indifferently, “Sorry, I’m busy today.”

“It’s not very far.” Seeing that Li Yanmo refused, Xia Ji’s face got much redder, as if it were bleeding, and her voice was as timid as a mosquito, “And I have other things to tell you.”

“Now you can tell me.” Li Yanmo got impatient but tried to keep it under control. He had a look at his watch. At this time, he would have been at home if it hadn’t been for her. Ning Tiantian must be very anxious about where he was when she was at home alone.

“What I want to say, is…” Xia Ji bit her lips, stuttering, “is I-I li-like…”

“You! Our class monitor is being asked again!” At this time, Su Yi came. He was sitting on his bicycle, whistling at Xia Ji with a grin. “This time, it’s the learning committee member! Amazing! Li Yanmo, If I were you, I would agree to that! You know, you are a perfect match!”

Since Su Yi had just told Li Yanmo, Xia Ji bit her lips and looked like she was making up her mind. She had been hiding her feelings at the bottom of her heart for a long time. “Monitor, I like you. Can you be my boyfriend?”

Her car key was not lost. She just wanted to have this opportunity to ask him to be her boyfriend.

Xia Ji looked at Li Yanmo expectantly and also anxiously. Her mouth was a thin line. As he kept silent, her expectant look gradually turned into an imploring glance.

This kind of implore had never been seen in Ning Tiantian’s eyes. Every time Ning Tiantian looked at him, her eyes said that she was bound to get what she wanted. She acted like, even though all the girls around the world were more beautiful than her, she was sure about one thing: that was Li Yanmo would only like her.

“She is a narcissistic child.”

Thinking of this, Li Yanmo couldn’t help but started to laugh.

Golden leaves were falling with a breeze, and the smile on the little boy’s cheek was so warm and clear. He looked like a shining stone. He just needed to stand there, and that was enough to attract everyone’s attention.

“Class monitor, did you just say yes?” Xia Ji did not expect happiness to come so fast. She bashfully bowed her head and wanted to hold Li Yanmo’s arm.

Ning Tiantian clenched her fists tightly. She felt like there was only blackness in front of her eyes. The sun shone brightly in this autumn afternoon, but she felt like she was living in the winter. She was freezing.

“Inky, how can you have other girls…?”

She wanted to rush over immediately and confront Li Yanmo, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead. She couldn’t even lift them. Her eyes were filled with tears, and they raced down on her cheeks the next second.

This kind of sour and uncomfortable feeling couldn’t be described.
