That evening, after Zhang Lin left, Li Xiaolu sat alone on the sofa watching television, yet she hadn't turned it on. Zhang Lin's words kept echoing in her mind.
— "You’re not lacking confidence, are you?"
— "I just think you two are a perfect match! You have to go public!"
Li Xiaolu realized that deep down, she indeed lacked confidence. Perhaps it was because Jijun was just too outstanding, while she... Although others said she was the campus beauty with good grades and looks, she had always felt quite ordinary. Especially after being with Jijun, she felt even more unworthy of him. That was why she had never had the courage to make their relationship public.
But Zhang Lin's words had awakened her. Why shouldn't she be confident? She was also a treasure in her parents' eyes and a remarkable girl in others' views; what reason did she have to lack confidence?
Having come to this realization, Li Xiaolu suddenly felt enlightened. She decided that she would go public about her relationship with Jijun.
After more than an hour, Jijun returned home. He entered and first kissed Li Xiaolu before heading to the kitchen to cook. Li Xiaolu grabbed his hand and said, "Jijun, there's something I want to tell you."
Jijun looked at her and asked, "What is it?"
Li Xiaolu handed him her phone and said, "I want to go public."
Jijun frowned slightly and asked, "Go public about what?" He took the phone, glanced at it, and then smiled, "Are you sure?"
Li Xiaolu nodded vigorously, "I'm sure!"
Jijun ruffled her hair, "Okay, I support you."
He took a photo of their hands together with his phone.
He posted it on social media with the caption: "Family photo."
Li Xiaolu laughed at him, feeling sweet inside.
But she still felt a bit disappointed.
Because Jijun only showed their hands and not their faces.
How would others know they were a couple?
Jijun seemed to sense her thoughts and posted another photo of them.
This time, their faces were visible.
Li Xiaolu was very happy, "Jijun, thank you."
Jijun pinched her cheek, "Silly, why are you thanking me?"
Li Xiaolu hugged his neck, "I'm so happy."
Jijun smiled, "Is this all it takes to make you happy?"
Li Xiaolu nodded vigorously.
She didn't expect Jijun to agree so readily; after all, she had hinted at it several times before without any response from him.
It seemed he wanted her to come to the realization on her own.
Li Xiaolu felt happier than ever.
...
The next morning, Li Xiaolu had just woken up when she received a message from Zhao Shu.
"Are you and Jijun together?"
Li Xiaolu was taken aback.
How did Zhao Shu find out about this?
She didn't reply. After a while, Zhao Shu sent another message. "Why aren't you talking? Feeling guilty?" Li Xiaolu felt a bit angry. "What do I have to feel guilty about?" Zhao Shu replied, "You know in your heart." Li Xiaolu couldn't hold back any longer. "I'm with Jijun now, so what?" There was a moment of silence from Zhao Shu before another message came through. "When did this happen?" Li Xiaolu was getting impatient. "What does it matter to you?" Zhao Shu asked, "Do you know what kind of person Jijun is? Do you really know him?" Li Xiaolu became even angrier. "I don't know him; do you know him?" Zhao Shu didn't reply again. Li Xiaolu took a deep breath and threw her phone aside. This Zhao Shu was really being unreasonable; why did it matter to her who she was dating? Li Xiaolu couldn't be bothered to deal with her.
