But I fell in love with you - Chapter 15


But I fell in love with You 

Chapter 15: Changes



 After that day, Yang Nainai locked herself at home for a day and even pulled the curtains tight, then she did her homework furiously. She not only finished the homework that the teacher had assigned, she also tackled another stack of revision papers that she had brought for herself previously.

When Father Yang video-called her, he was taken aback by her haggard appearance.

"Nainai, are you okay?"

Yang Nainai laughed as happily as she could muster,

"Which high school student is not worn out? This proves that your daughter is working hard and will be admitted to T University sooner or later."

Father Yang boomed out laughing, "Nai Nai, as long as that is what you want then I’m fine with it but Dad wants to give you an advice, although studying is important, you need to have ample rest while working hard for your future because you shouldn’t hurt your body."

Yang Nainai pouted, "Dad, all of the other parents want their children to study 24 hours a day. Why are you telling me to do the opposite?"

Father Yang laughed, "Those who read like crazy are all nerds and fools. My darling daughter is so smart, so you don't need to study like them. If you're bored with studying, go date someone, or go shopping. You shouldn’t let your carefree years as a teenage girl flitter away like them."

Yang Nainai shook her head in disbelief,

"Dad, are you serious? The teachers in school nagged day and night to prevent us from having an early relationship. I would be beaten to death with a stick if they catch a whiff of me doing that."

"No, no, darling, your youth is not complete without experiencing puppy love. Trust me, it will spark a radiance within yourself and boost your creativity to unprecedented heights."

A person needs to have an edge when they decide to pursue a career in art and Yang Nainai did not expect that her father would actually persuade her to fall in love in order to have that advantage.

"Dad, does mom know that you are digging this hole for your darling daughter to fall into?"

"Darling, if your mother knew, she would only agree with me about it. However, she would definitely advise you to find a handsome guy. This old dad will give you one more advice. Don’t only focus on a man’s looks."

Yang Nainai couldn't help but think about Huo Yixuan. Her mind suddenly froze at his image. Crazy girl, why was she thinking of that scum.

She shook her head, "Dad, I'm going to study now, you should rest early too, pay attention to your health too! Bye bye!"

Yang Nainai closed the video-call before her dad had finished speaking.

School started the next day

Yang Nainai walked into the classroom listlessly, and saw that most of the students had already arrived. Before she could sit down, Ma Shanshan tugged at her sleeves and cried out her grief.

"Nainai, what should I do, my husband had transferred to the first class."

Yang Nainai was stunned, "Is that true?"

The third class that they were in was a liberal arts class, and the first class was a pure science class. They had already chosen their classes on their second year of high school, and she had never seen a liberal arts student transferring to a pure science class before in the third year of high school!

It's not just risky, it was impulsive to do so.

"His parents agreed?"

"I don't know! He has already transferred to that class anyway. My husband had gone to the first class, so someone will definitely snatch him away."

Ma Shanshan tugged Yang Nainai's arm while she swayed it back and forth with her hands and cried coquettishly.

Yang Nainai glanced at Huo Yixuan's seat as she felt a bunch of conflicting emotions. "Do you know why?"

Could it be because of her that he had to change classes?

Ma Shanshan huffed out her displeasure and complained, "What else could it be but that forced kiss contest!"

It was really because of her.

"It's so serious?"

Ma Shanshan sighed,

"They said that there are too many girls in our class, And they were afraid... afraid that Huo Yixuan's study will be affected, so what? We are not even tigers that will eat him alive. I blame those girls for forcing my husband to leave."

There were a lot more boys and only a few girls were present in the science class. The students there were only interested in studying anyway, which seems quite safe for a guy like Huo Yixuan to study at.

Yang Nainai sneered,

"You still dare to call him your husband. When the trouble started, why didn't you go to the water dais and get the moon first[1]? If you took the opportunity to get him early on, then you wouldn’t have had to deal with all those temptresses waiting outside to steal your ideal man."

Ma Shanshan smiled sheepishly while she pressed both her index fingers together shyly

"Aiya, I....I...."

"You just talk a lot of big words. You have a thief’s heart but no thief’s courage[2], no wonder you are still single." Yang Nainai took out her book and held a grudge against her inside her heart.

Ma Shanshan suddenly felt ashamed and aggrieved, "It's not that I don't want to force myself on him, but.... But as soon as I approached him, my heart will beat faster, and my legs couldn’t help but weaken. How can I even do it then? What about you, you came up with the idea, why didn't you snatch him up for yourself?"

Yang Nainai said rigidly, "He's too tall. I'm afraid that I can only kiss his knee even if I jump. Besides, I'm afraid that he has bad breath, so I just gave up."

Ma Shanshan laughed uncontrollably while she clutched her stomach. The two never mentioned the incident again.

The days gradually became peaceful, as they barely bump into each other. Occasionally when she sent the homework to the teacher's office, she will see him chatting with his classmates in the classroom or see him on the basketball court during recess.

They both acted as if nothing had happened between them, and his eyes never lingered on her again.

There's nothing bad about spending their days like that either.

It's just that the change had came so suddenly that it knocked her a little off her course.

The National Day was coming soon, so they could look forward to a seven-day long holiday, and the students were all cheering with delight. Even if the teachers arranged a lot of homework for them to complete, it didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the students anyway.

Her mother, Zhang Rui flew off to meet Father Yang for a romantic getaway during the seven day long holiday. Yang Nainai didn’t want to be the awkward light bulb[3] so she stayed at home and studied hard.

She failed the math test this time, which put Yang Nainai under a lot of pressure. If she went on like this, her dream of entering T university would be even further away.

Before Zhang Rui left, she specifically instructed her,

"I found a tutor for you whose math skills are amazing. Remember to study hard!"

Yang Nainai was full of expectations, so when the doorbell rang, she opened the door, saw the person standing outside, and became so scared that she shut the door immediately.

However, the person’s feet were long and strong, as he forced his entry into her house.

"Huo Yixuan, why did you come to my house?!" Yang Nainai looked at him nervously.

Huo Yixuan gave her a wicked smile, while he swept his gaze once around her home. His eyes finally landed on the tiny shorts that revealed most of her thighs. "I didn't expect your legs to be so short."

Yang Nainai glared at him with black clouds over her expression. "Do you think you are amazing because you have long legs? You still have to compete with Yao Ming[4] for that. Let’s see if you can even reach his knees."

Assh0le, still so annoying.

Huo Yixuan chuckled and put down the schoolbag in his hand. He sat down on the sofa casually,

"Little Nainai, we will share the same room for the next seven days!"

Yang Nainai's brain went mushy like a paste, as she rushed over angrily and pushed his legs off the coffee table,

"Nonsense, how could my mother ask a rascal like you to be my tutor. Tell me now, where did my tutor go? Did you frighten that person away?"

It must be so, or else how could her mother know Huo Yixuan, and it was even more absurd asking him to be her tutor.

Huo Yixuan turned his head to the side, while he openly ogled her from head to toe. Yang Nainai was wearing a spaghetti strap top with tiny shorts. It was as if Huo Yixuan's eyes could penetrate through her normal attire and see the nubile body underneath her clothes.

She couldn't help but pick up the pillow beside her and put it in front of her chest. She then took a few steps back, and looked at him nervously,

"I’m telling you, don't act like a ruffian, or I'll scream and the security guard will come up to deal with you right away."

Huo Yixuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "What are you afraid of, I didn't even do anything to you."

Yang Nainai choked, she couldn't say that he was looking at her with that perverted squinty eyes of his and it was useless to call the security guard just for that anyway.

"Stop talking nonsense, tell me, where's my tutor?"

Huo Yixuan crossed his legs as he turned on his phone, and showed her the text message.

"Look at it carefully, is this your mother's number?"

Yang Nainai took a closer look and saw The text message read, "Student Huo, please help Nainai with her math. Auntie feels so grateful towards you for helping her with this. When I come back, I will definitely thank you properly then."

That number was clearly her mother's.

"You..." Yang Nainai couldn't figure it out, "How did you get in touch with my mother?"

Huo Yixuan smiled, "Ah, didn't I tell you?"

"What?"

"Your mother and my mother are university mates and my mom is your mom's senior. They have a pretty good relationship too. Before I came here, my mom specially asked Aunt Zhang to take care of me too."

Damn it, why didn’t she know about this?!
