Next to him, You Jingyi, had been feeling restless since he returned. He kept glancing at Little Star's house, watching her lights go out and come back on again, repeating several times. He wondered if she discovered the gift he hid in the flowers.
You Jingyi originally thought he would chance upon her the next day and casually ask if she liked the gift from yesterday. But he waited all morning without seeing her.
In the end, he could only go to school feeling disappointed. Shang Ou saw him and eagerly pulled him aside to ask about the situation yesterday.
You Jingyi frowned slightly and said, "She didn't respond."
"Ah... does she not like you, or does she like you? How did you ask?"
"I didn't ask."
"Ah... if you didn't ask, how could she respond to you?" Shang Ou was confused by his vague words, thinking he should have been there to guide him yesterday.
