Su Wan's Secret Love (Oneshot)

Part 2

Mann this was a good conclusion to this short~ The author's note seems to makes everything end on a bittersweet note, but the overall story is quite simple and sweet. Hope you enjoyed this short with me!

This short was definitely designed to be a short; wouldn't imagine it any other way ;3

**********

When their university admission notices came, Wang Xin excitedly called her. She had gotten into X University, Li Chengran had also gotten into X University, and Su Wan... had also gotten into X University!

She had initially said that they would never see each other again, but in a flash, those words became meaningless, as they fluttered about and disappeared.

Her family members were very happy that she had gotten into X University, and they granted Su Wan's request that she had kept asking them for, for the last three years.

They allowed her to learn taekwondo.

Su Wan wanted to learn taekwondo solely because Li Chengran was also learning taekwondo.

She had finally gotten what she had always wished for. The only thing was, Li Chengran was in the advanced class while she... was in the beginners class.

As she ran around with a group of junior high students, wearing a white belt, Su Wan felt she had gotten too old. After a day's practice, she felt she had already broken all her bones from fatigue, but when she was walking out of the building, she coincidentally bumped into Li Chengran who was leaving his advanced class.

Li Chengran looked at her, startled. Su Wan's cheeks immediately reddened. "What... what a coincidence. You also happen to be learning here."

Every single person in their high school class knew Li Chengran was learning here...

However, Li Chengran did not expose her lie and nodded, "Have you finished class? We can go home together."

Su Wan went blank, "Oh, oh... uh, okay." Her heart was almost about to blossom with flowers.

Her house and his house were in the same direction. In the past, they had also returned home together via the public bus. Rarely would they not recognize anyone else on the bus. As they sat together, Su Wan could almost hear her own heart jump.

Actually, after they sat down together, they had not spoken much. Su Wan kept her head down, afraid to even peek at Li Chengran.

When she returned home, she had taken out her diary. Because she was too excited, Su Wan couldn't write down a single word. Instead, she drew two children in her diary. One was her, the other was Li Chengran. They sat side by side, with Li Chengran looking outside the window while she looked at her own knees.

Looking at the two people who didn't match, Su Wan felt her heart pump with scorching hot blood that warmed her entire body.

They had sat on the bus together ah.

Their arms were next to each other.

Their palms were so close to each other.

Su Wan covered her face, and rolled around on the bed happily.

Later after training, every time Su Wan passed by the advanced class door, she would always straighten her back and walk like she was walking on the red carpet. She would make sure she looked good, and walk slowly, glancing inside the entrance as she walked by. If she could secretly see Li Chengran's figure in her eyes, she would feel so elated.

What did "But I have seen my husband, And how should I not rejoice?" mean 1? This was the very epitome of that phrase.

[1] "But I have seen my husband, And how should I not rejoice?" is a phrase that comes from the poem 風雨 (Wind Rain) from the Book of Poetry (詩經). The poem is a love poem. It is special because it uses the setting to depict the mood. The entire poem is 32 sentences, but the first two lines of every stanza begins with the setting. When the wind and the rain are battering at the same time, when the day is dusk, when the cock crows randomly, a woman is longing for her husband. The wind and the rain descends and acts recklessly like her chaotic feelings. The dusky sky is just like the darkness of her mood, and the chaotic cock crowing emphasizes the moodiness in the scene. At this time, her husband appears. How can she not be overjoyed? When she sees her husband, her chaotic feelings immediately become calm; when she sees her husband, it is like she has suddenly recovered from a heavy illness. In the beginning, the poem has so much depression, but later, it is full of happiness. The poem is full of dramatic changes, which serve to vividly create a feeling of passionate love.
