Hearing Scarlett's words, Cindy felt her cheeks burning. But when she thought that only Scarlett knew that she loved Harley, Cindy was not so embarrassed. "After | had dinner with you that day, | went back and did as you advised. | made it clear to him that he was only my superior, so he had no right to interfere in my private life.
And | didn't have to listen to his orders after getting off work..." While Cindy was saying those words to Harley, Harley's face hardened. But when Cindy thought of what Scarlett had said, she screwed up her strength to continue. Then she followed Scarlett's advice. She no longer had any private contact with Harley, except for official business.
Ill the first few days, the expression on his face was dark, as if she owed him hundreds of millions.
Cindy endured his dark expression for more than ten days. Just when she couldn't bear it anymore, the president of her university's club planned a party. As she and other schoolmates discussed how to prepare for the party, she gradually ignored Harley.
But she was still a little disappointed. Because Scarlett said that if Harley stopped contacting her, it would prove that he didn't love her.
The party attracted Cindy's attention.

When the weekend arrived, she packed up and went out to the sea with her schoolmates.
She had good relationships with the people in the club. And there were a lot of activities at the party, such as surfing, barbecue, seaside camping and so on.
The weather was very good on the day they went to the sea, and Cindy was not so sad.
They went snorkeling during the day and saw the beautiful underwater world. At night, they had a barbecue for the president's birthday. Everyone sat on the beach and played the game of Truth or Dare.
The atmosphere was very happy. But the president suddenly professed his love for her, due to which Cindy got shocked.
The president organized the party with the aim of telling Cindy that he loved her.
The star that night was very beautiful, and everyone was delighted. The president was very gentle. But when Cindy suddenly thought of Harley, who had not played badminton with her for ten days, she became upset.
Though she was unhappy, she still had to give an answer to the president.
Just when Cindy was about to speak, Harley, who hadn't contacted her for ten days, suddenly came over and held her hand. Then he said to the president, "I'm sorry. She's my girlfriend".
Cindy was taken away by Harley before she reacted. And she didn't know where he would take her. Anyway, when she reacted, she found that there was no one around, and it was very quiet, except for the sound of waves hitting the rocks.
It took Cindy several minutes to calm herself down before asking Harley what he meant.
She tried hard to be confident and at ease, but failed, as she was still too nervous. When she stammered to ask him, she saw Harley smile.
He looked so gentle and handsome when he smiled. But if he hadn’t laughed at her at that time, Cindy felt that she was willing to see such a smile for her whole life.

But knowing that he was laughing at her, she didn't want to smile at all. Thinking of Scarlett's words, she suddenly became anxious and she snapped, "Harley, what are you laughing at? You suddenly said such misleading words. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Probably because she felt too humiliated and angry, she stared at him coldly when she said these words.
Cindy thought Harley was going to be angry, and she would lose her first love.
Just while she was thinking wildly and was hesitating about whether to tell Harley that she loved him, Harley suddenly reached out and wiped away the tears on her face. Then he said, "You are really stupid, Cindy." She was so angry that she burst into tears. But later, she heard him say, "I love you so deeply. Don’t you know it?" Then he lowered his head and kissed her.
Cindy felt as if she was dreaming.
Cindy finished speaking. She looked at Scarlett, feeling a little embarrassed." We've been together since that night.” As if thinking of something, she asked, " Scarlett, you are amazing. How do you know he likes me?" Although Cindy was simple and a little slow in response, she was not stupid.
In the past few days, she had been recalling the days before she and Harley were together, and she made sure that Harley loved her long ago.
But Cindy still thought it was incredible why Scarlett was so sure that Harley liked her.
Because she only told Scarlett that she had crush on Harley.
