I Might Have Fallen in Love With My Childhood Sweetheart

The light was still on in the study downstairs, Mr. Li must still be reading in there.

Only the home emergency light was still on in the living room. Xie Ying’an pulled Qingran by the hand, sneaking out like thieves, both unconsciously lightening their steps.

Qingran had never done anything behind her parents’ back before. During the short walk from the living room to the front door, she felt like her heart was about to leap out of her chest.

Xie Ying’an wasn’t doing much better. In his nervousness, his palm was sweating while holding Qingran’s hand.

The two didn’t dare change shoes in the living room, fearing Mr. Li might suddenly come out.

After changing their shoes outside the door, Qingran realized: it was just going out with Xie Ying’an to buy something to eat at night, why was she feeling so guilty?

Since they were already out, there was no point in fretting over it now. They both washed their hands under the outdoor faucet.

With the water still dripping from their hands, Xie Ying’an took Qingran’s hand and they walked toward the parked bicycles.

The moon was bright tonight. The young man turned to look at her; his dark eyes shone brighter than the stars. He asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Qingran wasn’t picky: "Anything."

Seeing Xie Ying’an lead a brand-new bicycle out from the bike shed, Qingran was dumbstruck for a moment.
