Over a month had passed, and winter had firmly arrived. December 25th was particularly cold. Xu Si arrived earlier than Jiang Rong. He filled both their thermoses with hot water and took out hand warmers from his pocket, peeling off the paper and waiting for them to heat up in his pocket. He watched as…

“To be honest, if you wanted to see him, why didn’t you do it earlier? Why show up suddenly after so many years? Si is a person, not an object. He’s not something you can pick up and throw away whenever you want. He’s a good person, and he’ll be better off without you. So…

The young man wore a smoke-gray hoodie with simple school uniform pants underneath. The autumn uniform pants were blue-black with a thin white stripe, making his already long legs look even longer. His dark eyes held a smile. He was holding a basketball, walking toward Jiang Qian step by step. Jiang Qian watched him approach,…

Monday, the 9th. “The overall grades are out. I’ve printed the test scores. One copy per group, pass it around to look.” Yang Shikun held the score sheet and smiled at Jiang Rong: “Study god, you got third place in the whole school again!

Yang Shekun was caught off guard by her question, then suddenly realized that seat number three belonged to the top student Jiang.

My mom always says I don’t eat enough of them.” Xu Si chuckled lightly, “Yes, vegetables are good.” “Brother Si, Scholar Jiang, enjoy…

Xu Si immediately changed his words: “I’m not apologizing, I want to treat you to a meal. Is that okay, little teacher?” Jiang Rong softly replied with a “mm.” At the dining table, Xu Si looked at the table full of green vegetables, then glanced at Jiang Rong sitting across from him. “Vegetables are good…

Xu Si turned around and saw Jiang Rang standing behind him. She wore a cream-colored dress with a light purple cardigan. She looked especially beautiful today. Jiang Rang looked at him, her breath catching when she saw the blood on his face and dirt on his clothes. “Did you get into a fight?” For the…

It was almost the end of the month. On Saturday, October 31st, they had arranged to meet at the bubble tea shop at 3 PM. Xu Si left at 2:10 PM, wearing a black hoodie with a matching jacket and black pants. Just as he was about to leave, Yuan Yuan ran out and jumped…
