This voice is indeed not Zhou Xiaotong's. Lin Qiu suddenly panicked and turned around to scan around.
In the center of the crowd stood a girl wearing a Sun Wukong mask, looking at Lin Qiu.
Lin Qiu recognized her at a glance. This was the real Zhou Xiaotong.
Zhou Xiaotong and Lin Qiu looked at each other and ran away.
Realizing that she had done something wrong, Lin Qiu turned around, took the love letter out of the girl's hand, and chased Zhou Xiaotong who ran away. But an angry girl is harder to chase than a cat. Lin Qiu searched and searched for Zhou Xiaotong on the playground, but could not find Zhou Xiaotong.
Instead, he found Shen Yutang standing at the door of the playground. He was not wearing a mask and stood out. Lin Qiu recognized him at a glance.
Shen Yutang noticed Lin Qiu, and he came over angrily and punched Lin Qiu.
"You have let down such a good girl like Xiaotong, are you still a human being?" Shen Yutang's voice was not as gentle as the gentleman he usually pretended to be.
Lin Qiu was knocked to the ground by the punch, but he didn't care about the physical pain. His first priority now was to find Zhou Xiaotong: "Did you see her going that way?"
Shen Yutang snorted coldly: "You have the nerve to ask, but she doesn't want to see you at all now."
Lin Qiu explained: "This is a misunderstanding. If you also like Zhou Xiaotong, you should let me go over to comfort her."
Shen Yutang has been pursuing Zhou Xiaotong for a long time. He can also see that Luo Hua is affectionate and Liu Shui is unintentional. However, he can accept that Zhou Xiaotong does not like him, but he cannot accept that Zhou Xiaotong likes Lin Qiu.
He felt that people like Lin Qiu, who had neither family background nor financial power, were not worthy of Zhou Xiaotong.
But Shen Yutang's tutor since childhood told him that he should not make the girl he likes cry. Now the only person who can ease Zhou Xiaotong's emotions is in front of him.
He clenched his back teeth and said for a long time: "She is in the woods to the east." After that, he left angrily. Lin Qiu only saw his clenched fists.
The grove to the east...
Lin Qiu immediately ran in that direction. Very few people came to this grove. Usually there were a few young couples going on dates here, but today the masquerade party in the playground was even more attractive. The entire grove quietly dropped like a needle. Everybody can hear it.
He walked around in the woods twice, and heard the sound of crying behind a big tree.
Lin Qiu stepped on the sandy soil and walked behind the tree.
"Xiaotong, I'm sorry, I messed up. I originally wanted to give you a perfect confession."
Zhou Xiaotong kept crying.
"It's because I'm not stable enough that you have been wronged. I have never met that girl, and I don't know her at all."
"You don't know her, why are you talking to her?" Zhou Xiaotong finally replied.
Lin Qiu quickly ran over and squatted next to Zhou Xiaotong: "Xiaotong, stop crying, it's all my fault."
He felt so distressed that Zhou Xiaotong's voice was trembling when she just spoke. When Shen Yutang criticized him, he only felt angry, but the moment he saw Zhou Xiaotong, his heart seemed to be repeatedly kneaded and pressed by a big palm, making it sour. Incredible.
Zhou Xiaotong buried her head in her knees and buried her deeper when she heard Lin Qiu's voice approaching.
Lin Qiu hugged Zhou Xiaotong: "Don't you even want to see me?" He surrounded Zhou Xiaotong with his breath, hoping to give this insecure girl more warmth.
Zhou Xiaotong said slowly: "You won't recognize me when I put on the mask. Will you often mistake me for me in the future?"
Lin Qiu heard Zhou Xiaotong finally talking to him and hugged her tighter.
"It's all my fault. When I express my love to you in the future, I will definitely touch your face. This way I won't mistake you." Lin Qiu said sincerely.
Zhou Xiaotong also realized that this was a misunderstanding, so he raised his face with tears in his eyes. Lin Qiu's heart broke when she saw the red blood in his eyes.
They say that a beautiful woman cries, and I pity her when I see her, but Lin Qiu prefers her usual lively and agile look. In his impression, Zhou Xiaotong is worthy of all the joy in the world, and can encounter setbacks, but should not be hurt by them. Especially Lin Qiu himself became this setback, which made him very powerless.
Zhou Xiaotong looked at Lin Qiu and kept gasping for air. Lin Qiu took out the love letter he had just given to the girl wearing the mask, opened it and read it to Zhou Xiaotong.
"I still remember the first time we met was at the beginning of the school season in September."
"You're standing next to me in a white floral dress."
"On the fair face, the eyes are bright."
"I couldn't restrain my love for you at that time, and my good feelings were like a heavy rain, slowly covering up all my sadness.
"I always feel that I am not worthy of you. But I hope that I can be worthy of you. So I have been working hard. I want to go to the same university as you."
"Now I finally have enough power to stand with you."
"Let us continue walking side by side."
"I'm very excited about our future."
"Will you be my girlfriend and walk into the future with me?"
Lin Qiu looked at Zhou Xiaotong affectionately and read the love prepared for her.
Zhou Xiaotong looked at the love letter and said nothing.
Lin Qiu also took the opportunity to crumble it and put it in the palm of his hand: "This love letter is already dirty. I will write another one to you. But what I say to you is true. Don't reject me, okay?"
Zhou Xiaotong's eyes were red and silent. She had calmed down, but she didn't want to talk. Every time she encountered something about Lin Qiu, she couldn't control her emotions. Her ideal love should be for everyone to be in their own way. Fighting on the road.
She doesn't like the feeling of being influenced by others.
Lin Qiu asked softly: "Let's not sit on the ground, okay? If you catch a cold, you will get sick tomorrow."
Zhou Xiaotong nodded: "Yes." Then Lin Qiu pulled him up from the ground.
Lin Qiu kept holding her hand and asked: "The masquerade should not be over yet. Do you still want to play?"
Zhou Xiaotong's voice was waxy and crying: "My makeup is all gone, and my eyes are swollen..."
Lin Qiu touched her hand: "We can wear masks." Zhou Xiaotong had always wanted to go to the dance, and he didn't want Zhou Xiaotong to lose this opportunity because of him.
Zhou Xiaotong didn't want to waste her life just because others disturbed her. She nodded and put on a mask.
"I am Sun Wukong now. I am no longer Zhou Xiaotong. You can no longer hold my hand."
Lin Qiu was slightly startled, and also put on a mask. His mask was Zhu Bajie: "Then Senior Brother, you have to protect me."
Zhou Xiaotong was immediately amused: "You are so weird, you don't usually talk like this."
Seeing Zhou Xiaotong finally laughing, Lin Qiu felt relieved, and the two of them returned to the stage.
Zhou Xiaotong's mood recovered a lot. After entering the stage, he saw a girl dancing in the center. The girl happened to be wearing a Sun Wukong mask and was dressed quite similar to Zhou Xiaotong.
Zhou Xiaotong looked at it for a while and said, "It really looks like me."
Girls always have a hostile attitude towards people who are similar to themselves, and Zhou Xiaotong's hostility towards this girl is particularly obvious.
