Edit | Zero Seven Story Meeting
On that warm spring afternoon in 1993, I walked into the elegant café in the center of the city, surrounded by greenery, and my heart was full of anticipation and nervousness.

My family has been urging me to go on a blind date, hoping that I can find my perfect partner soon. Sitting in a corner of the café, I gently adjusted my collar to try to look more composed.
Soon, a seemingly confident and slightly critical lady walked into the café with an elegant and determined step. When she sat across from me, the air seemed to freeze.
She started asking a series of pointed questions straight and even asked me to simulate a live lesson to demonstrate my teaching style.
This made me feel a kind of pressure that I had never felt before, and I couldn't help but feel a little doubtful and uneasy in my heart. But I still try to keep smiling, hoping to use humor to ease the tension caused by this unusual blind date.
Halfway through the blind date, I found it increasingly difficult to adapt to the various challenges presented by Li Xiaomei. Her every request was like a softness for me, and I couldn't help myself. I tried to be patient and humorous, but the pressure inside me was mounting.
However, during our conversations, I started noticing some strange details. From time to time, Li Xiaomei mentioned some topics related to my past, and even talked about some interesting things about my childhood.
These topics made me suspicious, and I began to doubt her true identity. Does she know me? But I never recognized her.

As the conversation deepened, I finally couldn't help but ask, "Miss Li, do you know me?" She smiled and nodded, and then revealed her identity to me - she was my elementary school classmate Li Xiaomei!
I couldn't believe that after years of not seeing her, she had changed so much that I didn't even recognize her at first sight. Li Xiaomei explained with a smile that the reason why she set these problems was just to see if I still had the innocence and kindness I had as a child.
She wanted to test my character and character in this way to see if I could really catch her attention. Hearing this, I felt a mixed emotion in my heart, both surprised by her unexpected realization and understanding and gratitude for her.
We continue our walk through the park, surrounded by verdant trees and blooming flowers. In this quiet and beautiful environment, we began to talk about the past.
I found that recalling the bits and pieces of my childhood with Li Xiaomei turned out to be an indescribable happiness. Gradually, our dialogue became deeper and more sincere.
I began to understand that Li Xiaomei was not deliberately trying to make things difficult for me, but wanted to get to know me in this way and understand whether we had common experiences and empathy with each other. I also felt the kindness and sincerity of her heart, which made me feel a special affection for her.
In the twilight of this spring, Li Xiaomei and I seem to have rediscovered each other, the innocence and kindness of our childhood.
Our mutual understanding and trust reached a new level at this moment, and we decided to stop sticking to formalities and let the relationship develop naturally.
As the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the winding park paths, the conversation between Li Xiaomei and I gradually deepened. We move from light-hearted childhood memories to more serious topics – our respective lives, dreams, and hopes for the future.

In this immersive communication, which almost forgets time, I feel a connection that I have never felt before, that intimacy that goes deep into the bone marrow.
Suddenly, Li Xiaomei stopped her steps and turned to me, with a kind of seriousness in her eyes, she said: "Zhang Shengming, I must tell you that today's blind date was actually deliberately arranged by me.
I haven't seen you in years, and I want to test you to see if you're still that gentle, honest person. Everything I do, it's because of my ...... I've loved you since I was a kid!"
These words shook my heart like a bolt from the blue. Li Xiaomei's confession made me realize that this blind date is not just a simple reunion, but a bold attempt at her emotions for many years.
My heart was filled with mixed emotions: surprise, emotion, and a hint of unease. I know that this is not just a simple gathering of two old classmates, it could be a pivotal moment in our future.
I slowly took her hand, and the vibration in my heart made me almost speechless. I looked into her eyes, which were full of anticipation and a slight unease. Taking a deep breath, I said, "Xiaomei, I am deeply touched by your sincerity and courage.
I'll admit that at first I was confused and even a little resistant to your test, but now I understand your good intentions. I'm very happy, very happy, because it shows that there is a special connection between us, which is something to cherish. ”
Tears flashed in Li Xiaomei's eyes, and she whispered: "I'm afraid that you will refuse, and I'm afraid that all this will be ruined." But I have to express my true feelings, even if it means we might lose this friendship. ”
I held her hand tightly, and the decision in my heart had been formed: "Xiaomei, I don't want to lose you, whether as a friend or a possible partner. Let's start here and see where this emotion can take us. ”
At that moment, our hearts reached a resonance. Under that golden twilight, our future is as full of hope and possibility as the brilliant sunset. We hugged each other and cried, making a promise to explore this new emotion together.
Many years later, my relationship with Li Xiaomei is like a small bookstore we run together, full of warmth and bookishness. Our bookstore becomes part of the community and a testament to our shared memories and dreams for the future. In those shelves, each book carries our stories and emotions.
We often share with our customers how that unusual blind date turned into our most beautiful beginning. Whenever I see Xiaomei smiling at a customer, I am grateful for that spring afternoon and for her boldness and sincerity.
We know that no matter what the future holds, we will face it together, just as we promised in the park. This love began with a test, but it has achieved a lifetime of companionship.
