Section 2

Is it cold?" Su Lu sniffed and asked Zhou Danna

This has also directly led to a significant wealth disparity within the school, similar to Su Lu, who was admitted with most of the tuition fees waived, only required to pay a symbolic small portion of the tuition each semester

Su Lu recognized that Zhou Danna was of the same kind as her, both being impoverished students at this prestigious school who relied on tuition waivers

Establishing this school is merely a trivial act of charity by a renowned wealthy individual

Those cartoons mostly depict two dolls, ultimately holding hands.

Su Lu called out: "Xi Xi, I am late. Let's go inside."

Su Lu opened it and saw that each cigarette inside had either the name Jiang Sen written all over it or was adorned with many beautiful cartoon drawings. What a thoughtful endeavor this is

Zhou Danna's face became swollen, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth. She did not want Su Lu to see this, so she quietly wiped it away with the corner of her clothing. From her small red handbag, she took out two bottles of medicine, one containing red liquid and the other for bruises.

"Why not retaliate? If it were me, even if there were a hundred people on the other side daring to hit me, I would definitely fight back, even if it meant fighting to the death," Su Lu said with a light laugh.

"Because Jiang Sen gave me a bottle of milk," Zhou Danna said as she took a bottle of milk out of her small handbag. The milk had already cooled down, and she held it in her hand, her face becoming even redder due to her rapid breathing.

Well, there is red medicine, adhesive bandages, and I can handle minor injuries myself. A long illness makes one a doctor; I can take good care of myself said Zhou Danna, her face showing a faint smile

The sky gradually darkened, and the phone vibrated with a notification of an unread message, sent by Ai Xixi:

At the entrance of the cinema, Ai Xixi had been waiting for a long time. It had been over ten minutes since the screening started, and the popcorn had already cooled down. Ai Xixi, wearing a green checkered dress, was squatting on the steps at the entrance of the cinema

Every year, both the Gregorian calendar and the lunar calendar mark the birthday of Jiang Sen, and the school suspends classes for a day. Even the teachers and the principal participate in his birthday celebration

Very much like Shu Qi in her youth

That group of girls, when they were fighting, would shout at anyone who glanced their way, saying: "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a fight before? If you keep looking, I'll hit you too"

It appears to be an elite school, yet it also allows many students from underprivileged families to complete their secondary education free of charge

Jiang Sen is a well-known delinquent and troublemaker at school. He comes from a wealthy family, and has a driver to pick him up and drop him off from school. The driver even eagerly opens the car door for him before he gets out.

Zhou Danna took out a pack of Aishi cigarettes again, and after several attempts with the lighter, it failed to ignite. She shook it vigorously in her hand and awkwardly said it was out of gas. She pursed her lips around the cigarette, tried again, and finally lit it. Taking a couple of puffs, she tilted her head back and exhaled, creating a ring of smoke.

Occasionally, when encountering Jiang Sen, she also keeps her gaze straight ahead, walking her own path.

Jiang Sen, the boy who never wears a school uniform, always dons a white T-shirt paired with a black suit, adorned with a silver necklace and diamond earrings, standing at a height of 1.87 meters, has formed a school basketball team

Su Lu took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, which was filled with Jiang Sen's name, and asked, "They hit you, is it because of him?"

That seemingly small red envelope can actually hold so many things

It is not cold; I have gotten used to it

She is a bad girl. Su Lu, we cannot associate with such a bad girl, even Sister Vivian would not like this bad girl. Ai Xixi is timid; she has seen Zhou Danna being beaten by a group of girls at the school gate, and she is afraid of attracting trouble.

Aixi, extremely fine cool smoke

In front of the makeup mirror, Zhou Danna skillfully applied the solution to her face, and when she encountered a painful spot, she let out a soft "hiss".

Jiang Sen

Zhou Danna handed the cigarette box to Su Lu

The reason is quite simple; the chairman of this private school is Jiang Sen's father, albeit only in name. In Jiang Sen's father's eyes, this is merely a school he has donated to, and any of his enterprises yield greater returns than this school.

"Su Lu, are you not afraid of their retaliation? You saved me, aren't you afraid?" Zhou Danna followed closely behind Su Lu, walking towards the dimly lit intersection.

What is wrong with you

If I retaliate, they will cause a scene in my mother's shop... Anyway, I might as well consider it self-inflicted humiliation, looking for trouble!" Zhou Danna said casually

They are all infatuated and jealous of Jiang Sen's kindness towards me. Do you know that for three consecutive days, Jiang Sen has handed me a bottle of warm milk every day after school, and then smiled at me before getting into his family's Mercedes-Benz?" Zhou Danna's swollen cheeks were radiant with happiness, as if those slaps just now had not landed on her face

Su Lu carefully observed Zhou Danna and felt that she was not the type of standard beauty. Her cheekbones were somewhat high, and her lips were slightly thick, resembling those in illustrations. However, upon closer inspection, she was truly stunning; that kind of beauty has a way of suddenly emerging and stirring one's heart.

On those thin wisps of smoke, a person's name is densely written all over

I bought a bag of hot popcorn at the entrance of the cinema, waiting for you

Three people in the third row of the cinema were competing to eat popcorn, and they also bought ice cream to see who could eat the most. As a result, they ended up with stomachaches. They criticized the plot holes in the movie and how poor the actors' performances were, yet in the end, all three of them still shed tears sadly

Su Lu had a poor impression of the tall and handsome Jiang Sen, who was self-assured and arrogant. Such a spoiled and domineering young man was not to her liking

Ai Xixi patted the dust off her skirt, tilted her head to look at Zhou Danna beside Su Lu, and opened her mouth in surprise. She hurriedly pulled Su Lu aside and said: "Su Lu, why are you with her? You should quickly make her leave."

When she first entered this school, there were rumors that Jiang Sen liked Su Lu, which made her quite uneasy. However, no one believed this rumor, as Su Lu was the poorest student in the school

In Zhou Danna's diary many years later, she recorded this day when a tall, slender girl carrying a cello passed through the crowd, grabbed her hand, and shouted "Run!" It was as if a ray of warm light had pierced through her dark world, and the sky seemed so blue that it would never turn black

Zhou Danna wore a goose-yellow knitted sweater with a V-neck. Around her neck, she adorned herself with a colorful string of beads. On her arms, there were seven round scars, which Su Lu recognized as cigarette burns

There is no but, I believe that soon you will also come to like her

Do you often get beaten?

This reminded me of the time I watched a movie with Ai Xixi, and the movie ticket is still in my pocket. Su Lu tapped Zhou Danna's shoulder and said, "Let's go, I will take you to see a movie"

Su Lu adjusted the pink bow on Ai Xixi's fine ponytail and said, "Ai Xixi, we agreed that we would share blessings and face difficulties together. From today onwards, Zhou Danna is our good friend"

"Do not be afraid," Su Lu said, turning around to smile at Zhou Danna again

I wrote his name on a cigarette, inhaling it to the place closest to my heart

Zhou Danna threw away the cigarette, clapped her hands and jumped, saying joyfully: "Great! I haven't watched it in a long time, my mom broke the TV at home, and I have a strong desire for a big screen"

However

No wonder she said her name is also Jiang Danna
