Chapter 5, because I have to look at you, I can no longer see anything else

Xu Zeya hesitated as he stepped closer to Jingxuan, his eyes reflecting a complex mix of anger and frustration. Just as he raised his hand to deliver a fierce slap, ...

Pushing open the glass door, the breeze sets the shell wind chimes hanging above ringing softly. The entire store is dominated by a light brown color, with exquisite wooden tables placed in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows. At the corners of the tables are a few hand-painted daisies, exuding a romantic and warm atmosphere

No, Ze Ya has invited me to dinner today, and I cannot be late

Xu Zeya, dressed in matching couple outfits identical to Xiaotan's, was surprisingly walking down the street arm in arm with another girl, striding confidently...

Uh... it seems there isn't any

However, the other party showed no reaction, as if the one who had just collided with her was merely a wooden post

Ah! Jingxuan belatedly stuck out her tongue, "I almost got caught by the branch. Thank you, Jiaxi! But..." She suddenly turned her face and looked intently at Yu Jiaxi, "It is because of you that I didn't see the branch."

Please don't do this. After all, we have been good friends for so many years, having gone through so many things together. The many storms we faced have not diminished our friendship. Is it really worth it to let something that has no real conflict between us drive us apart now? Or... can our friendship be so easily cast aside by you?

I apologize, but I am not in a good mood and cannot help!" Xiao Tan firmly refused, passing by Jing Xuan and hurriedly leaving the classroom

Xiao Tan let out a long sigh, closed the book, and handed the test paper to Jing Xuan across the table. Then, she took out her phone to check the time displayed on the screen, a hint of panic flashing across her face. Her movements in packing up her things also quickened. "I really have to hurry to my appointment now, or Ze Ya will get angry"

In Xiaotan's eyes, there are deep traces of hurt

Behind, Monroe watched him hesitate, feeling both angry and anxious: "Xu Zeya, what are you doing? Hit her!"

Stop messing around, we are in the middle of an exam now

The heart is also beating wildly ... ? ... How could she be so nervous after so many days ?

Xu Zeya, coming to his senses from the shock, glared fiercely at Xiaotan and shouted, "Xiaotan, are you out of your mind, standing here without making a sound!"

If the truth were to be stated plainly, perhaps the deeply infatuated Xiao Tan would not be able to accept it at all. However, by concealing the truth from Xiao Tan and allowing her to date a boyfriend who has long since betrayed her, what difference is there between the harm she inflicts on Xiao Tan and the harm Xu Zeya inflicts on her?

"Jiaxi, let me take you home," Jingxuan said, showing no concern for his indifference. She quickly picked up his backpack, cradled her own in her arms, and then turned back to him with a bright smile, "Let's go"

"Xiao Tan, you shouldn't be like this..." Jing Xuan became increasingly at a loss for words, her face filled with helplessness and panic

Jingxuan, did I see it wrong?

Xiao Tan suddenly turned around, her eyes sparkling with the brilliance of stars. She stared at Jing Xuan for a moment, then suddenly reached out to embrace her. In the cool and quiet night, her voice was gentle and filled with gratitude: "You should have been a bit harsher, a bit fiercer, and a bit more forceful just now; giving him just one slap was really too lenient... However, in the future, it's better not to use your palm, as I remember your hands are the most sensitive to pain!"

The two were startled, and the searing kiss ended in shock

A slender hand reached out, brushing aside the branch for her: "Aren't you paying attention to the road?" Yu Jiaxi's voice, tinged with anger, subtly contained a hint of concern.

Jingxuan gazed wistfully at the classroom door: Xiaotan, you are my only friend, I hope our cold war does not last too long

The sky outside the window, the sunset is intoxicating, a gentle breeze brushes through the lush green leaves of the trees, rustling softly

Oh, I understand! Jingxuan waved enthusiastically at the waiter not far away, "Check, please!"

Xu Zeya's arm waved hesitantly, lingering without coming down.

Jingxuan did not even dare to look at Xiaotan, her long eyelashes drooping as she spoke. She crouched down to gently pick up the test paper that had fallen to the ground, her soft long hair covering the expression on her face.

If the teacher finds out, it will be terrible! Jingxuan did not dare to speak, she could only desperately signal to Yujiaxi with her eyes, her hands constantly trying to break free from his control

Xiao Tan was taken aback. Having known Jing Xuan for so long, she had never seen Jing Xuan receive such a low score! She found it hard to believe, her thoughts tangled and complex.

Jingxuan, I must have seen it wrong

When she sensed several pairs of eyes looking in her direction, Jingxuan felt a loud thud in her head, and the blood in her body surged to her forehead. Not knowing where the strength came from, she gritted her teeth and pulled her hand away from Yu Jiaxi's grasp.

A man and a woman embrace and share a passionate kiss

Yujiaxi's hand remained frozen in the air, having forgotten to retract it for a long time

You are maintaining him again, aren't you!" Xiao Tan said with a look of expectation, expressing disdain.

Xiao Tan resolutely stood up from the chair and solemnly stared at Jing Xuan: "Do not be this kind of person, Jing Xuan, wake up! The person you have been searching for may not necessarily be Yu Jiaxi! He is nothing but a dangerous individual!"

But you have never been this bad!

Jingxuan's eyes sparkled, her clear gaze reflecting a mix of embarrassment and shyness. Her long eyelashes, resembling the wings of a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, fluttered gently. Her cheeks were flushed, taking on a cherry-like hue, which was exceedingly alluring

Xu Zeya

Jingxuan listened quietly, and gradually, an inexplicable feeling of emotion surged like a tidal wave, flowing from her heart and filling her eyes.

After pondering for a moment, Jingxuan could not help but cautiously ask, "How is Xu Zeya treating you?" When she asked this question, she made a great effort to maintain an expression of utmost naturalness on her face

It is truly ironic

In Jingxuan's mind, countless thoughts swirled, yet she could never sort out a clear thread of reasoning.

"What is your mistake?" Xiao Tan advanced step by step, her tone suddenly tinged with a hint of acidity, "How many years have we been friends? Yet, when I asked you to choose between me and someone you have only known for a short time, you actually hesitated. Doesn't that mean he is actually more important than I am?"

Jingxuan felt a bit guilty, but her face still wore a bright smile: "This is not to be repeated!"

I remember that there is nothing wrong with your ears; next time, if I call you several times and you still do not respond, you should be cautious

Xiao Tan, I have a clear understanding in my heart

Xiao Tan nodded slightly and said, "Oh, then let's go"

"Good." Jingxuan's lips curved into a gentle arc, her smile brimming with a hint of joy. Although his tone remained indifferent, the meaning behind his words revealed a sense of consideration.

I am sorry

Jingxuan's cheeks were tinged with a faint blush, and her expression revealed a hint of guilt: "This time, it actually has nothing to do with Jiaxi..."

Ahーー ! ''

The mock exam in the afternoon

The next day, in the classroom of Class 2 (1) of the second year of high school

Suddenly

Her words provoked Xiaotan's displeasure: "Jingxuan, do not be so selfish!"

Jingxuan cutely blinked her eyes and said, "Of course it's a girl."

Jingxuan's heart trembled slightly, and she took a deep breath, softening her tone: "Xiaotan, let's not argue about this matter anymore, okay? I came to you today to ask for your help..."

Monroe incredulously covered her burning cheek, her eyes blazing with anger as she glared at Jingxuan, feeling both furious and fearful. Instinctively, she hid behind Xu Zeya and urged him, "Zeya, you must not let her off the hook today! I refuse to believe that she is still your match! Go and take revenge for me! Hurry up!"

"You betrayed Xiaotan yourself, how dare you hit someone? Do you even have a conscience?" Jingxuan raised her small face to meet his gaze, without a trace of fear

Xiao Tan took a long time to muster three words, and her voice was clearly tinged with a sob.

Do you know? The voice of Yu Jiaxi was filled with subtle sarcasm as he gazed at Jingxuan's pale face, and coldly said, "This is a scene I often witness, and today, it is indeed no exception"

Why didn't you say so earlier

Ah? Jingxuan came to her senses and looked at him in astonishment, "What happened?"

A sound of "pa".

She kept murmuring in her mouth: "I must have seen it wrong, it must be a mistake..."

No, she must take a look to see if he really did not answer the questions

"Not at all, you know that I have never been good at science." Jingxuan's lips curled into a smile, her eyes squinting into crescent shapes, looking extremely cute.

This is the only time, and there will be no next time. You have always been the one to teach me! Now it is my turn to teach you, which is truly outrageous!" Xiao Tan said in one breath.

Jingxuan quietly clenched her fist, her expression serious: "It is extremely necessary!"

Jingxuan felt a wave of shame in her heart, and secretly regretted her clumsy words: "I am really foolish, why do I always say the wrong things? Xiaotan, I was wrong, I apologize to you, will you forgive me?"

It seems that he has not opened the exam paper from the very beginning, and judging by his current state, he is likely to sleep until the end of the class. Is he really planning to submit a blank paper

Xiao Tan vaguely felt that something was amiss, and a trace of guilt unconsciously arose in her heart. However, she did not know what to say. In order to conceal her embarrassment, she quickly tidied up her books, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and hurriedly said to Jing Xuan: "I am leaving first"

Upon hearing Jingxuan's last words, Xiaotan immediately threw the documents onto the table, a flash of annoyance crossing her face as she glared at Jingxuan: "Yan Jingxuan, clarify your words. Who exactly considers our friendship worthless?"

Jingxuan was momentarily taken aback, and after a brief pause, she finally understood. Her cherry-colored lips broke into a smile, radiant like summer flowers: "No problem!" Bright light sparkled in her eyes as she responded cheerfully to Xiaotan.

Monroe had a fierce expression, half urging and half forcing as she said: "Xu Zeya, you useless man, are you afraid to even hit a woman? I tell you, if you don't dare to act against her today, don't even think about seeing me again in the future"

Jingxuan and Yujiaxi instinctively looked over and found that it was actually Xiaotan who had pushed the door open and entered

Silly little Tansy

As their gazes met, Xiao Tan's face showed a slight unnatural expression, yet she forced herself to straighten her back and walked over. She approached Jing Xuan, gently placed her backpack down, and took out a thick document from it, handing it to Jing Xuan while saying lightly: "You should take a good look at this when you get home; it will definitely be useful to you. As for the questions on today's exam paper, I will explain a few that are relatively difficult to you. There isn't much time, and I have to hurry to an appointment! So I can only explain it once!"

Ben Jingxuan

No need, I just don't like having someone with a constantly sour expression following me around every day. I warn you, you should get rid of that sour face as soon as possible, it is quite uncomfortable to look at

Jing Xuan knew that he was serious this time. The moment Xu Zeya approached her, she subtly dodged him and forcefully threw the "snake" in her hand, causing various slippery snakes to draw a cold arc in the air.

However, Yu Jiaxi did not respond to her this time, as if he had completely ignored the confusion in her eyes, and he walked past her, striding towards the classroom door.

Jingxuan paused her steps and asked cautiously, "What’s wrong?"

Xiao Tan's steps suddenly halted, and she coldly stared at Jing Xuan, her voice filled with vigilance: "What do you mean? Are you implying that Ze Ya might also betray me?"

"Where is it?" Jingxuan asked curiously

"No, that won't do." Yu Jiaxi stood up slowly from the chair, his tone laden with significance, "I need to take you to a place first"

She murmured, gazing around in confusion, a wave of unease surging within her. She pushed through one unfamiliar person after another, rushing through the crowd, not letting slip any figure that resembled Xiao Tan. She kept searching, her body continuously jostled by the throng around her

Yu Jiaxi's expression grew increasingly dissatisfied as she sat on the chair, sulking and glaring at her.

Jingxuan held her breath, slightly turned to the side, reached out her hand towards Yujiaxi's desk, gently pinched a corner of the exam paper, and nervously and cautiously pulled the paper little by little from under his arm

Jingxuan tilted her head apologetically and looked at him, her pair of agate-like eyes sparkling with clever light: "Then please take me home!"

Xiao Tan stood silently beside them, like the arrival of a ghost, watching them like a shadow

On both sides of the street, vendors engaged in various small businesses have arranged their goods at their stalls, extending like a long dragon with no end in sight. The array of colorful items, delicious foods, entertaining toys, and attractive sights dazzles the eyes.

When she saw that person intimately linking arms with the unfamiliar girl beside him, her mind seemed to explode with a loud bang! Her slender white fingers tightly gripped the corner of the wooden table, and the small daisy beneath her palm, if it were real, would have already been crushed by her grip

Suddenly, a slightly cool hand gently grasped hers, and she looked up in astonishment, meeting the gaze of those already opened light blue eyes.

I am sorry, I am sorry... Before I could clearly see the fierce face of this person, Jingxuan hurriedly bowed and apologized repeatedly. When she looked up to search, she could no longer find Xiaotan's figure in the vast crowd.

Xiao Tan still had not forgiven Jing Xuan. As soon as the school bell rang, she hurriedly left the classroom with her backpack.

Jingxuan was taken aback, as it turned out that Xiaotan had seen everything! However, to take a step back, after all, she was still paying attention to her own matters, wasn't she? ... This is a good thing ...

Jingxuan's eyes still glimmered with tears, yet the corners of her mouth could not help but bloom into a smile as pure and beautiful as ice flowers: "I'm not stupid at all, I was able to scare them like that even with a fake snake!"

The color of the sky gradually darkens, while the bustling and vibrant night market is just beginning

She did not dare to get too close to Xiaotan; as long as her gaze could reach Xiaotan, she felt at ease. ... She followed Xiaotan out of the campus, crossed the intersection, and walked down the long street ...

His cold voice revealed a kind of almost childlike dominance, causing Jingxuan to involuntarily stick out her tongue, her shallow dimples on both cheeks appearing cute and sweet: "Alright, alright, Lord Jiaxi, I won't dare next time."

This scene attracted the attention of many passersby, some with envy, some with admiration, some with disdain, and some with indifference. Among the crowd, several young people continuously whistled in a raucous manner.

Xu Zeya, you scoundrel

On the lawn of the park, the girls' crisp laughter resonates through the night sky like wind chimes, adorning this evening with an exquisite beauty alongside the twinkling stars.

Is it the fear of being discovered by her classmates? Or is it the intense warmth of Jiaxi's palm? Or perhaps it is the powerful current in his gaze? She has never felt so at a loss before

The night market gradually reaches a peak of lively commotion

After a moment of loss, the sense of fulfillment that once existed left an indelible mark in his heart, and that feeling of excitement lingered on, refusing to dissipate.

Jingxuan approached Xiaotan, grasping her hand tightly, a glimmer of mischief flashing in her clear eyes. She pulled the dazed Xiaotan along and quickly ran out of the crowd

"Indeed." Yu Jiaxi's淡蓝色 eyes swept over Jingxuan, and he said lightly, "At this time, why don't you skip the coffee and have a drink instead?"

Jingxuan fell silent for a moment, and the voice deep within her heart finally could not help but gently utter: "... Jiaxi, thank you."

Xu Zeya, still shaken, glared at Jingxuan: "Yan Jingxuan, you..."

The wind blowing in from outside quietly swept the exam papers off the table, and the thin sheets floated helplessly in the air. Jingxuan felt that at this moment, she was just like these delicate pieces of paper.

Jingxuan gently wiped away the tears that had silently fallen from her cheeks, and in a spoiled tone, she unabashedly said: "Yes, it hurt so much that I almost cried out loud at that moment... But hitting them was really exhilarating!"

In the final class, she placed the mock exam paper on the small desk. A gentle breeze blew in through the window, softly stirring the thin paper, with one corner glaringly marked in bright red with the score of 50.

She wearily closed her eyes, and her soft sighs blended into the gentle breeze, giving rise to a faint sadness that spread to every corner of the classroom

A glimmer of dark light flashed in Jingxuan's eyes; the slap she had just received left her right palm still slightly aching. Jingxuan raised her other hand and swung it fiercely.

"Xiao Tan..." Jing Xuan called out to her with concern and worry, and immediately followed her.

Yu Jiaxi's gaze shifted through the floor-to-ceiling window to the street across the road, seemingly searching for a certain target

It is you who reached out yourself

Who is she

Jingxuan's delicate features were completely frozen, exuding a transparent pallor. Her large eyes were filled with unease and a complex expression, clearly burdened with words that weighed heavily on her chest, yet she was entangled in uncertainty about how to express them.

Is that so? Jingxuan forced a stiff smile, saying absentmindedly, "That's good..." However, she was filled with anxiety; Xiaotan was too naive, how could someone like Xu Zeya, a master in the realm of romance, be matched by Xiaotan?

Xu Zeya's hand froze in mid-air

Until the two girls rushed into a secluded park, they collapsed carelessly onto the lawn, exhausted. Their faces, flushed from the vigorous running, were as beautiful as cherry blossoms. They gazed up at the faint stars in the night sky, breathing heavily.

Jingxuan's lips curled into a hint of disdainful smile. As Xu Zeya hesitated, she casually walked over to a stall selling "small animals," handed the vendor a banknote, and casually picked up a few "snakes." Turning around to face the ashen Xu Zeya, she quietly hid the "snakes" behind her back and flashed a strange smile at Xu Zeya and his companion, Menglu.

On the wide sidewalk, straight trees are planted, and two figures, one tall and one short, sometimes draw close and sometimes separate slightly. Suddenly, a low-hanging branch obstructs the path, but Jingxuan does not notice it and is about to lean in when—

Thump, thump, is that the feeling of a heartbeat

Ah!

"Xiaotan, the mock exam is in the afternoon, and there are still many things I don't understand. Please explain them to me, help me out—" Jingxuan gently placed an open textbook on Xiaotan's desk, her fair face beaming with a smile as she spoke in an extremely ingratiating tone.

Jingxuan followed Yu Jiaxi to a coffee shop

Yu Jiaxi cast a faint glance at her and silently mouthed, "What do you want to do?"

When she was misunderstood by Xiaotan, she did not cry nor feel wronged, but at this moment, she could not help but shed tears

Jingxuan let out a gentle sigh and walked out of the classroom side by side with Xiaotan

A complex glimmer suddenly flashed in Jingxuan's eyes, and the secret buried deep in her heart made her momentarily anxious and flustered, prompting her to exclaim: "Don't go!"

... ... Ben Jingxuan !

Xu Zeya and the Marilyn Monroe in his arms staggered back a few steps, while Jingxuan stood firmly between them and Xiaotan. She stood straight and resolutely in front of Xiaotan like a guardian deity. Before Xu Zeya could regain his composure, she slapped him again on the left side of his face, her gaze sharp and her movements graceful.

Jingxuan instinctively looked up, immediately surprised with her mouth agape, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word. In her pupils, a familiar yet dazed figure was reflected.

Yu Jiaxi remains in a deep slumber, her exquisite sleeping face radiating a tranquility and serenity that seems to belong to another world

Xiao Tan, you know very well that I did not mean it that way. The reason I hesitated at that time was that I felt both of you are important people in my life. You are the only friend with whom I can share joy and sorrow. Without you in my life, I would forever be a lonely person! As for Yu Jiaxi... Jingxuan's gaze flowed slowly like a clear spring, "I have been looking for him for a very long time. Only he can fill the huge void in my heart. The reason I hesitated at that time was that I felt both of you are important people in my life. You are the only friend with whom I can share joy and sorrow. Without you in my life, I would forever be a lonely person! As for Yu Jiaxi..." Jingxuan's gaze flowed slowly like a clear spring, "I have been looking for him for a very long time. Only he can fill the huge void in my heart. Therefore, regardless of who is gone, I feel that my life is no longer complete. I will do everything in my power to hold on tightly to any one of you! I will not... give up one for the other. It is not that I am unwilling, but that I cannot do it; that would be too cruel." Therefore, regardless of who is gone, I feel that my life is no longer complete. I will do everything in my power to hold on tightly to any one of you! I will not... give up one for the other. It is not that I am unwilling, but that I cannot do it; that would be too cruel.

I misread it, I misread it

After exiting the café, the two individuals walked homeward, one on the left and the other on the right

Xiao Tan looked at Jing Xuan with suspicion and asked, "Are you trying to say something?"

Xiao Tan's voice trembled slightly, and her gaze was filled with an aura of deathly stillness. Her eyes were fixed, unblinking, on the pair of figures before her. Then, in a daze, she took a step forward, gradually approaching the couple...

The air at dusk instantly condensed

Jingxuan had unspoken troubles, and could only glare intensely at the exam paper under his arm.

Finally, it fell between Xu Zeya and Monroe. One landed on Xu Zeya's shoulder, while the other softly fell on Monroe's instep

Running through the bustling night market, running beneath the mottled and colorful neon lights, running across the intersection, running far, far away

Jing Xuan frowned slightly; whether answering correctly or incorrectly, whether providing more or less, it is certainly better than submitting a blank paper, right? At least the teacher would have nothing to say! She carefully scanned the classroom with her gaze, noticing that her classmates were all diligently working on the exam questions, while the teacher sat at the classroom door, drowsy.

After all these years, for the first time, I can so distinctly feel my own heartbeat

Upon hearing the name Xu Zeya, Jingxuan became sensitive and immediately stood up, saying: "I will go with you!"

Little Tan, sitting in the chair, remained oblivious, engrossed in sorting through the materials in his hands

Jing Xuan stood still, gazing at the gradually receding figure of Xiao Tan. It was not her intention to speak ill of Xu Zeya; it was merely a fact.

Xiao Tan's movements froze, and she raised her gaze slightly, looking at her with confusion: "What are you talking about?"

The students left one after another, and the classroom gradually fell silent. In the end, only the two of them remained, one standing and the other sitting. Neither spoke, as if an unspoken bond connected them, allowing them to deeply understand each other's feelings without words, and simply being there for one another was enough

Jingxuan heard Xiaotan's light and airy voice, her gaze fixated on a certain spot, as if she were frozen in place

Perhaps knowing the truth of the matter earlier would allow for the possibility of reducing some of the little pains as much as possible

Finally finished speaking

Jingxuan's face was as cold as frost, and the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile: "It is you who is the shameless one; I will not steal your title! Because you are sufficiently shameless, this slap is given to you without the need for a reason"

Error count

Xiao Tan looked at her with a hint of disdain: "If it weren't for you flirting with Yu Jiaxi during the exam, would you have scored like this?"

Jingxuan resembled a pure and innocent little white rabbit, her clear eyes wide open as she gazed at him, her lips, glistening with a pink hue, firmly moving as she said: "Let me go..."

A gentle breeze blew in with a coolness, and Jingxuan seemed to suddenly awaken. She instinctively wrapped her arms around herself, bit her lip, and hesitated before following along.

The classroom was so quiet that only the sound of pen tips scratching could be heard

Jingxuan glanced at the teacher in a panic, and seeing that she had not startled him, she quickly turned her face away, pretending to focus on answering the exam paper. Her gaze was slightly lowered, and her long eyelashes fluttered gently. No one could clearly see the expression on her face, but the cheek that was as red as a ripe cherry betrayed the thoughts of the young girl

"You are still making excuses." Yu Jiaxi pretended to flick her forehead again, but his movement suddenly halted, for he heard her say, "Because I have to look at you, I can no longer see anything else"

Their expressions were so intimate that they forgot where they were at that moment, forgot who they were, leaving only a passionate heart yearning for each other

Jingxuan paused her pen after seriously working on several problems, her gaze slightly lifted, lingering for a moment on Xiaotan in the front row. Her eyes, clear as agate, turned thoughtfully, and a new idea formed in her mind. She quickly marked several incorrect answers deliberately beneath many of the test questions, then took a deep breath and closed the paper.

Sitting quietly in the chair, yet seemingly immersed in another world, Yu Jiaxi slowly opened his eyes. His light blue gaze was as deep as the sea, and he fixed his eyes intently on Jingxuan, who stood like a puppet beside the small table, silently removing the earplugs from his ears.

This feeling of betrayal, she had experienced not long ago. Although she did not love Su Junhao, she still felt uncomfortable. Moreover, Xiaotan liked Xu Zeya so very much; if she were to witness such a scene, her heart would shatter into pieces like glass.

Jingxuan, you are truly selfish. When I advised you not to associate with Yu Jiaxi, you did not heed my advice, and now you are turning around to advise me? However, thank you for your concern. I have been in a relationship with Zeya for such a long time, and our feelings have always been strong. He is not that kind of person! If you say even one more word against Zeya, our relationship will really be completely over!

A crystalline glimmer emerged in her agate-like eyes

A gentle breeze wafted in through the window, creating a very comfortable atmosphere that almost made one feel drowsy. However, in the tense environment of the examination room, apart from Yu Jiaxi, no one dared to fall into a deep sleep under the watchful eyes of the teacher

Xiao Tan put away the backpack on the table, and Jing Xuan immediately understood and laid out the exam papers. Facing the test questions, Xiao Tan's expression became serious, as she carefully explained to Jing Xuan. Jing Xuan, with her clear eyes wide open, listened attentively and earnestly.

Yan Jingxuan, are you a boy or a girl?

In the time that followed, under the influence of Yu Jiaxi, Jingxuan had completely lost the desire to continue writing her answers, sitting in a state of utter confusion until the end of the examination. Fortunately, her original goal was to achieve the lowest possible score.

The two sat down side by side at the table. Knowing well the character of Yu Jiaxi, since he was unwilling to speak, Jingxuan also remained silent; all the mysteries would eventually have their answers later.

If she feels so uncomfortable and incredulous just by looking at it, then what about Xiao Tan herself

Little Tan, I ... ...

However, amidst the feeling of happiness, she could not help but feel suspicious. Since it was not the time for coffee, what was he bringing her here for?

Upon hearing Jingxuan mention her lover's name, Xiaotan, like all young girls, revealed a slightly bashful yet sweet smile, radiating a brilliant charm, and almost without thinking, replied: "He has always been very good to me"

The sunlight streams through the window in delicate threads, casting bright rays of light in the classroom

What is your hand reaching out for?

It is still Xiaotan who understands me. Well, no matter what, I really did poorly this time, and I won't pass the teacher's assessment. You have to help me so that I can pass!

The silence of the space was suddenly broken by the sound of a door opening

The items here are inexpensive yet of good quality, making it the preferred destination for most students and couples in this city to go on dates and shop.

Now everyone in the school knows that the relationship between Yan Jingxuan and Yu Jiaxi is extraordinary. It is rumored that Yu Jiaxi has a mysterious background that cannot be underestimated, and no one dares to offend him

Half an hour later

Xiao Tan blinked in surprise and said, "Is that a fake snake? I thought it was real!"

Bang

Jingxuan was stunned, her slightly parted lips momentarily unable to utter a word, staring blankly at Xiaotan with a look of helplessness and slight confusion. Xiaotan had clearly misunderstood her, but how was she supposed to explain it to Xiaotan

Although Yu Jiaxi has always been reclusive and taciturn, he has observed the awkwardness between Jingxuan and Xiaotan. Their friendship has encountered problems due to his presence. After some contemplation, he believes it is time to offer Jingxuan an opportunity to mend their friendship

A trace of shock flashed quickly in Jingxuan's eyes, and her heart experienced a sudden, constricting pain as she held her breath and followed Xiaotan's gaze.

Yu Jiaxi appeared relaxed and at ease, his fingertips lightly brushing over her delicate skin, causing Jingxuan's entire body to tense up, holding her breath and daring not to move at all

Jingxuan's tone was as cold as a millennium of ice: "This slap is the last gift I give you as the best friend of Xiaotan! Enjoy it well!"

Only because the clothes on that person are too familiar and blinding

"Do you really need my help?" Xiao Tan's voice was filled with doubt, and a glimmer of understanding flickered in her eyes

A sharp scream of terror pierced through the crowd, elevating the clamor of the night market to its peak

Jingxuan quickly defended herself: "That's not it, I just want to see whether you have answered the questions!" She felt a bit anxious inside, and a faint voice unexpectedly slipped from her lips, standing out particularly in the silence of the examination room

How long will this conflict last? Is it true that she and Xiao Tan will only drift further apart?

Jingxuan suddenly realized, she was indeed too anxious, and her words were quite inappropriate. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face, and she then smiled slightly, her clear eyes like agate curving like a crescent moon: "What I mean is, I will go with you! It's just that you are going to your appointment, while I am going home."

Jingxuan could not help but follow his gaze.

Idiot

However, unexpected events often catch people off guard. All of her attention was focused on the quiet Xuan, when suddenly she was bumped into by someone. She stumbled back several steps, nearly falling, and then she heard that person curse loudly: "Dead woman, can't you see!"

A red five-finger mark quickly appeared on Monroe's face

She was bumped on the shoulder once again, and then staggered a few steps. Habitually, she kept saying: "I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."

"There is..." Xiao Tan paused after saying two words, and Jing Xuan looked at her nervously, "Hmm?"

The girl kissing Xu Zeya, her sexy body softly leaning against him, with lips resembling red roses curling into a charming smile: "Zeya, is this girl who looks like a ghost your girlfriend?"

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Tan's lips curled into a faint bitter smile: "So, is it that I am too cruel?"

Yu Jiaxi stared blankly at her now empty palm, a flicker of unusual brilliance passing through her light blue eyes. The warmth of her palm still lingered; her hand was tender and soft, slipping away from his palm like a fish...

Suddenly, a formidable girl appeared. The Monroe in Xu Zeya's arms was truly indignant, puffing out her chest and glaring angrily at Jingxuan: "What are you doing, you shameless woman? Are you looking for death?"

"I was wrong, Lord Jiaxi, please take me home instead." Jingxuan chuckled, picked up her backpack from the seat, and then looked in surprise at the motionless Jiaxi, "Aren't you leaving?"

Xiao Tan let out a sigh and said, "Then let's begin"

Jing Xuan was momentarily taken aback, and after a brief silence, she said: "It was my impulsiveness; seeing Xu Zeya like that... I just couldn't control the anger within me"

Have you ever heard of girls sending boys home

Xiao Tan's lips trembled slightly, like faded fallen petals, devoid of any color, contrasting sharply with the girl in Xu Zeya's arms, whose lips were so vibrant they seemed as if they were about to bleed.

At this moment, the flowers of their frozen friendship finally began to slowly thaw, restoring their original warm and bright colors

In the vibrant crowd, unfamiliar faces come and go, merely silent images of fleeting splendor, yet one scene remains frozen in time

Where will he place the small Tansy?

Yu Jiaxi sat unmoved, yet a glimmer of light shone in his淡蓝色 eyes, reminiscent of sunlight flickering on the surface of a lake

Xiao Tan, feeling annoyed, finished speaking and turned to leave, the setting sun casting a blurred, pale golden halo around her silhouette

Xiao Tan, her dear friend, how can she protect her? How can she minimize the harm that Xiao Tan suffers?

"Xiao Tan, could you please help me just this once?" Jing Xuan's voice was soft and low, and a layer of mist filled her clear eyes, exuding an indescribable sense of vulnerability.

Jingxuan ... ... '' Xiaotan's voice was as light as a wisp of silk, as if she was not the least bit surprised by Jingxuan's appearance. She stood there in a daze, completely motionless, her soul seemingly floating in the air

His words pierced Xiaotan's heart like a venomous ice needle, causing intense pain, while at the same time, Xiaotan's body was instantly frozen in a state of rigidity.

Yu Jiaxi could not help but cast her a glance: "Do you want to be caught by the police? I certainly do not."

Sitting quietly in the back row, Yu Jiaxi's lips curled slightly into a faint arc as he silently left the classroom, gently closing the door behind him. After stepping outside, he put on his headphones again and leisurely walked down the corridor, the world around him instantly reduced to the melodious and pleasant sound of music.

Xu Zeya smiled gracefully and said: "She is Monroe. Since you have already seen her, I might as well tell you that from this moment on, you have become a thing of the past; Monroe is my new girlfriend"

"Jingxuan, how could you treat Xu Zeya like that?" After a long pause, Xiaotan spoke, her voice gentle and her tone indifferent, revealing no emotion.

She was afraid that Yu Jiaxi would suddenly wake up and attract the attention of her classmates or teachers, and she was also afraid that the thin test paper would make a crisp tearing sound. In less than a minute, a thin layer of sweat beads appeared on her forehead

Did he make a mistake once again? Perhaps such a complex matter should not involve Jingxuan, should it

Jing Xuan stood beside Xiao Tan, unable to contain her anger any longer, and in the next moment, she rushed forward recklessly and pushed Xu Zeya forcefully.

Yu Jiaxi glanced at his exam paper and raised his elegant eyebrows, saying, "I want to copy a blank sheet."

Dong

Jingxuan was striving to suppress the dissatisfaction that surged from the depths of her heart, making an effort to ensure that her voice sounded calm and rational

As they entered the night market, the number of people on the road increased. To ensure that Xiaotan remained within her line of sight, Jingxuan had to carefully observe every move Xiaotan made. She needed to maintain a certain distance while also avoiding getting separated from Xiaotan in the bustling crowd

Jingxuan stared blankly at the hurriedly departing figure of Xiaotan, wondering who could teach her what she should do...

"Hehe, I will." Jingxuan gratefully gave him a sweet smile, "Well, can I take you home now?"

At that moment, it was as if a current surged from the point where their hands clasped, coursing through her entire body, igniting every group of cells within her in an instant, with each pore seemingly exhaling hot air.

Yu Jiaxi is clearly a regular here, as the beautiful waitress smiles and walks towards him: "Young Master Yu, is it the same as before?"

Xiao Tan mechanically recited those few words, walking straight to the couple who were embracing and kissing, standing close by, gazing intently, with a frozen expression, unable to utter another sound

Hello... Hello! Yan Jingxuan!" Yu Jiaxi turned his head to stare at the distracted Jingxuan sitting at the table, his tone quite displeased

Yujia Xi gently took a sip of the rich coffee just served by the waiter and said softly: "This is someone else's private matter; previously, I had neither the authority nor the interest to interfere, but now it is different."

Little Tan

"How can I not dare to hit! I will hit you right away!" A man's strong sense of self-esteem acted up, causing Xu Zeya to lose his head as he approached Jingxuan with a face full of anger

Yu Jiaxi, feeling dissatisfied, reached out and tapped her forehead, saying: "Did you forget what was just said so quickly? It seems a punishment is in order to help you remember better"

The man and woman embracing and kissing suddenly felt something was amiss, as they caught a glimpse of a pale-faced girl staring intently at them...

Jingxuan felt a flicker of surprise in her heart, and then smiled as she said: "I was thinking that our friendship is truly precious. After so many years of being good friends, if we were to lose this friendship just because of love, I would definitely regret it. In fact, friendship can last forever; the longer it endures, the stronger it becomes. However, love is always subject to change, and who knows, one day you might find yourself betrayed."

Beneath a row of lush green evergreen trees, the bustling crowd consists of white-collar workers eager to return home after work and students walking home after school. However, even amidst the crowded sidewalk, with so many people around, Jingxuan can still recognize that familiar figure at a glance
