Chapter Seven, the sunlight is indifferent

After waiting in place for a long time and seeing that Meng Xilou and Gu Miyin had not returned, Fan Jia and I decided to head back to school first. Unexpectedly, in the evening, Gu Miyin came to find me, calling my name loudly from the bottom of the building

She is not foolish either; the only thing that makes her smarter than me is her ability to see things more openly

Gu Mi Yin was completely enraged and took a few steps forward, intending to grab Xia Han's hair. However, Xia Han was not to be underestimated; she swiftly dodged and instead scratched Gu Mi Yin's arm with her long nails

Perhaps Xu Jingchuan understands Xia Han's feelings, which is why he treats her this way, causing her to harbor resentment. Everyone has their own way of protecting others, and regardless of the method used, it is all aimed at ensuring that person’s happiness

When I came out after changing my clothes, Xia Han's eyes lit up

I was startled by Gu Mi Yin and could only respond: "Whether Fan Jia likes you has nothing to do with me..."

The night before the college entrance examination, my mother was even more anxious than I was, especially since there were two third-year high school students in the family. As we were leaving for the exam, my mother nervously asked, "Did you bring your admission ticket? Did you bring your calculator? Did you bring your pencils? Make sure not to be nervous while answering the questions, and do your best in the exam"

Meng Xilou said nothing, turned around with a dark expression, and walked away. I silently followed behind him

Just now, Meng Xilou kissed me

The dormitory supervisor seems to be unfazed by girls entering the boys' dormitory, merely rolling her eyes before continuing to knit.

He is doing it for Gu Mi Yin

Xia Han, fulfilling the responsibilities of a senior, introduced us to which dormitories have the most handsome boys, which cafeteria serves the best food, which convenience store has the kindest auntie, and which bank has the fewest people. Xia Han is like the all-knowing sage of A University, possessing knowledge of everything.

I stood there in a daze for at least three minutes before I understood what had just happened

I stared blankly at the spot where Meng Xilou had just stood, a faint smile appearing on my face as I softly said: "Hello, boyfriend"

"Su Xi, no, sister, could you possibly give the Vanga to me?" Gu Mi Yin's gaze was filled with a kind of obsessive madness

In her words, it is: "Su Xi, you are about to enter university, you cannot just wear your school uniform and sneakers, you need to dress with style. Also, can you get a hairstyle? You look so plain. When we go out, I feel embarrassed to say you are with me."

Hmm?

Meng Xilou said softly: "What I said is true"

If you think about it for a moment, the answer is truly obvious

How do you know it is me

The new roommate saw Vanga and couldn't help but exclaim, "Your boyfriend is so handsome and considerate"

Gu Mi Yin said with a smile: "I can't swim, will you teach me later?"

The third cup is full

My major is Financial Management, and Vang Jia smiled and said that I would be counting money in the future. This major was recommended by my mother, who said it is more suitable for girls, and that in a company, finance is the lifeblood.

I have been using this phrase for self-hypnosis

Xia Han looked at us and jokingly said, "From now on, let the senior take care of you."

I searched for a long time at school before I finally found his dormitory

Xia Han, why don't you ask for clarification first

He was only wearing a wrinkled pair of beach shorts, exposing his upper body, and appeared to be in a state of having just woken up

Gu Mi Yin, Meng Xi Lou, and Fan Jia were playing dice together, and the loser had to drink a glass of wine. Meng Xi Lou and Fan Jia were at odds because Fan Jia always won

Xu Jingchuan was not angry and slowly extended his hand

Vanjia tilted his head and suddenly asked, "Aren't you going to ask me the reason for rejecting her?"

The moments spent in Suhe Town spread their wings and flew by, as the Mengxi Building before me overlapped with his childhood self.

Xia Han stared at my new look with satisfaction and exclaimed, "Indeed, the Buddha relies on gold adornments, and people rely on clothing. Su Xi, you have become more beautiful. Oh, by the way, I have an appointment with Meng Xilou tonight; your new look will surely amaze him."

The dormitory is an eight-person room with bunk beds, currently occupied by six individuals. Dirty clothes and smelly socks are scattered everywhere, while the others remain on their beds, their bodies contorted into strange positions. In one corner of the dormitory, there is a pile of instant noodle boxes and various soda bottles, covered in green mold.

In her eyes, there was only Vanga.

There is always a sour and unpleasant odor in the boys' dormitory building

Seeing the cooperation of Vankia, Xia Han was overwhelmed with joy

Before I could finish my words, a light laugh from Vanga came through the phone: "Axi, I know it's you"

It was clearly she who called Xu Jingchuan here, yet now she wants him to leave.

This is Xu Jingchuan

Xu Jingchuan turned and left after receiving the money

After the last exam ended, I stood outside the examination hall and let out a long sigh of relief, as if all those years of studying were for these two days

A single dress costs over 800, and it is not on sale

Vanjia touched the red mark on his face and said with a smile, "I rejected her"

As I wiped her face with tissue paper, I asked with concern, "Xia Han, what happened?"

Gu Mi Yin often comes to find Fan Jia to play, and I have seen her walking on the road with Fan Jia, chatting and laughing several times. Sometimes I also go to B School, because I always go home to stay on weekends, while Gu Mi Yin has gone wild since she started university and never goes home.

Unknowingly, it has already reached noon. Clearly, I provided the dormitory address, and I clearly have a mobile phone, yet Xia Han insists on shouting my name at the bottom of the dormitory.

I have never been particularly interested in going out for leisure activities; if it weren't for Meng Xilou, I certainly would not have gone along. Gu Mi Yin eagerly asked Fan Jia if he could swim, to which Fan Jia nodded.

Indeed, I have started to act foolishly again

The night before the application deadline, Fan Jia called to ask me how to fill out the application. I directly told him to apply to University A in our city. In fact, before Fan Jia called, Gu Mi Yin had received a call from Meng Xi Lou, and I heard Meng Xi Lou loudly say on the phone, "Wherever you go, I will go."

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw Xu Jingchuan leaning against a large tree by the roadside, in a posture of waiting. He glanced over this way and then strode over.

Su Xi ... ... Just before Xu Jingchuan entered the bar, he kissed a girl at the door ... ... Su Xi ... ... I feel heartbroken ... ... '' Xia Han looked at me pitifully, her eyes filled with an unprecedented confusion

I sat on the other side of the table, with Xia Han sitting next to me

Now I am completely awake

I was admitted to university, and the happiest person was my mother. When she received the notification letter, she was overwhelmed with joy and cried. That night, she held my hand and spoke at length about many things.

Xia Han did not answer my question directly, but instead asked the stylist next to her, "Do you think this girl is pretty?"

I stood on the balcony, leaning out halfway, and saw Xia Han waving at me below, her face beaming with a bright smile

I originally thought that as long as four people maintained this relationship, it would be fine to continue like this; at least I would still have the opportunity to secretly watch Meng Xilou.

My initial reaction was, of course, disbelief

My face suddenly flushed, I glanced at Vanga and whispered, "He is not my boyfriend..."

It was under Xia Han's explanation that I realized my university life had truly begun

School A and School B are located at the eastern and western ends of the city, respectively, and are quite far apart. I have been to School A countless times, so I am relatively familiar with it. On the day of registration, my mother and Gu Yuetian accompanied Gu Miyin to check in, while I alone carried a large suitcase to School A

Meng Xilou heard these words, his body stiffened, his fists clenched tightly, and then he slowly released the collar of Fan Jia, striding angrily towards the outside

After Xia Han's forceful transformation, I walked down the street and finally garnered some attention. Since it was my first time wearing heeled shoes, my balance was occasionally unsteady, which made me look somewhat peculiar

Must you only wake up if I scold you? I warned you before not to get too close to Vangia, did you think my words fell on deaf ears? During this time, just seeing you makes me want to vomit, I have endured you for a long time! Do not forget whose life you owe your salvation to

"Oh, I've seen shameless people before, but this is the first time I've seen someone as shameless as you." Xia Han's voice came from a distance as she slowly walked over, looking at Gu Mi Yin with disdain. She continued in a similarly sharp and sarcastic tone, "Some people have come to University A to act wildly; I have truly witnessed what a lowly person is like!"

It is estimated that Gu Mi Yin informed him about Fan Jia's affection for me, which is why Meng Xi Lou chose to fulfill Gu Mi Yin in this manner

Therefore, Vanga's explanations always provide me with immense benefits

I still hope that one day Meng Xilou will be moved and will recognize my goodness. I mistakenly believe that our interactions can outweigh the harm caused to him by Gu Mi Yin.

A woman should present her most beautiful self in her youth, so that her life is not lived in vain

I nodded, my face slightly flushed, and said shyly: "This is the first time I am dressed like this, I am a bit unaccustomed to it..."

When they arrived at the water park, Gu Mi Yin was the first to change into her swimsuit. I was unwilling to follow, so I waited for them on the shore. Fan Jia originally did not intend to go, but was dragged along by Gu Mi Yin.

Xia Han habitually wrapped her arm around my shoulder and said, "Su Xi, you need to be a bit more confident; you are no worse than anyone else"

When I found the Mengxi Building dormitory, I politely knocked on the door from outside. After a long delay, the door was finally opened by a roommate of Mengxi Building

I didn't sleep well all night, so I skipped class and went back to my dorm to sleep soundly. Just as I was in a deep sleep, my phone rang. Groggily, I reached for my phone to check the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number. I hung up and continued to sleep, but the owner of that number was persistent, so I had no choice but to answer the call

Vanka's face was slightly flushed

I stand at the school gate, filled with anticipation for the new life that is about to begin

Xia Han is always active in various student organizations, clubs, and events. She is always full of energy and vitality, living life to the fullest

In the midst of this busyness, it is already noon

I foolishly believe that with this heart, I can soften Meng Xilou's heart of stone. It is not that he lacks tenderness and romance, but rather that these qualities have been given to the wrong person

The term 'Vajra' also does not have an explanatory meaning

Vanjia looked me up and down, smiling as he praised, "Axi, you look beautiful today"

I am neither shaking my head nor nodding my head

He suddenly cupped my face with both hands and kissed me passionately.

"Axi, it's wonderful that we attend the same school." He came over and naturally took my luggage.

I feel that he arrives with a refreshing breeze, illuminating the entire world

A few days before the college entrance examination, the class teacher organized a class meeting to discuss their favorite universities. Some expressed a desire to attend Peking University, citing the opportunity to enjoy Beijing roast duck, which elicited laughter from the entire class. Others favored Xiamen University, praising its beautiful architecture. Some preferred Wuhan University, noting the stunning cherry blossoms on its campus. Additionally, there were those who aspired to study at universities abroad. Some favored Wuhan University, again mentioning the beauty of its cherry blossoms. There were also those who were determined to pursue their studies overseas.

He is willing to acknowledge me in front of others, which is a good start, isn't it

Vajra nodded affirmatively

They were tired from playing in the water. After getting up and changing clothes, Gu Mi Yin said she was thirsty and asked me and Meng Xi Lou to buy some water. She wanted to send me and Meng Xi Lou away so that she could spend some time alone with Fan Jia.

"Is what you said that day true?" I asked cautiously, afraid that he might be displeased.

The weather in September remains hot, and my sweat continuously drips down from my forehead. On the day of registration, there were many people at the school, and it was easy to identify the newcomers.

She has a complex relationship with Xu Jingchuan, feeling both love and hate towards him. While Xu Jingchuan cares for her, he also hurts her. The matters between these two will never be clearly resolved

At that moment, I suspected that I was dreaming

I am certain I did not hear wrong, will you give Vanga to me? I promise I will never play any tricks on you and your mother again, I guarantee I will behave. Just let me have Vanga, I cannot be without him... At the end of her words, Gu Mi Yin squatted on the ground and began to choke back her tears

After the exam, Gu Yuetian took Gu Miyin and me to buy a mobile phone. Gu Miyin had wanted a mobile phone for a long time, but Gu Yuetian had not bought one for her due to concerns about her studies

Two people started fighting, exchanging punches and kicks while hurling insults at each other. I went to break it up, getting caught in the middle of them, and I don't even know who hit me in the nose, causing me so much pain that tears streamed down my face

one thousand three hundred and two

How is that possible! The roommate looked utterly incredulous

From the moment Xia Han was born, she bore the responsibilities of her family. She did not understand business, yet she had to choose a partner who did. In the first half of her life, she lived freely, but in the latter half, she would live for the Xia family. Her love, her hatred, would henceforth be buried.

I do not speak

Meng Xilou was slightly taken aback, then provided the dormitory address before hanging up the phone

I lowered my head and said "I'm sorry," then went to clean up the instant noodle boxes and soda bottles. During the cleaning process, I almost threw up several times. After throwing everything into the trash can, I began to sweep and mop the floor, thinking that with a comfortable environment, Meng Xilou would feel a bit happier.

In fact, I lack confidence even in saying this; if Xu Jingchuan truly wanted to change for Xia Han, he would not be in this state.

Xia Han was discussing with the hairstylist next to her about what kind of hairstyle to cut while looking at my hair, and at that moment, I felt a bit drowsy

Later, on several occasions when Gu Mi Yin invited Fan Jia to play, Fan Jia would call me along, and the reason I went was that Meng Xi Lou came together with Gu Mi Yin

Since Meng Xilou kissed me, we have not been in contact again. I saved his contact information, wanting to call and say something, but I do not know what to say.

Later, Xia Han drank a lot of alcohol, and no matter how I tried to persuade her, I could not stop her. It was only after Xia Han had had enough of her madness and venting that I helped her slowly walk out of the bar

The first love should be the most beautiful thing in one's life, simply cherishing everything about each other, without calculating gains and losses, forgetting to worry about tomorrow, and having many memorable moments.

Xia Han casually looked in the mirror and retorted without any hesitation: "Su Xi, when it comes to foolishness, if you claim the second place, no one would dare to claim the first. I have been unable to stand her for a long time..."

I am sad

I shook my head

The college entrance examination scores have been announced, followed by the selection of preferences.

I always follow the teacher's approach diligently when solving problems, while Vanga chooses a very clever method to integrate knowledge and then solve the questions

It is likely due to the upcoming college entrance examination that Meng Xilou has not mentioned the matter of confession again. He rarely comes to see Gu Miyin, and that black motorcycle has not appeared at my doorstep again.

Noticing a hint of embarrassment on my face, Vanka explained, "When I arrived, I ran into Xia Han. She asked me to take good care of you. She said we would have lunch together later"

I stared wide-eyed, looking at Gu Mi Yin in astonishment

When I groggily woke up, the person in the mirror had already changed significantly. The messy hair was now neatly arranged, and the bangs were cut closer to the shape of the face. A portion of the long hair at the back had been cut off, and the lower part was styled into curls, cascading down the back.

On this day, four individuals went to the water park together

The scheduled time is in the evening. Xia Han called me during the day and asked me to go out. She said she was preparing to subject me to a hellish transformation

I search for the figure of Meng Xilou among the crowd at their school, and whenever I see a similar silhouette, my heart always stirs with a flutter

I helped Xia Han to her feet; she was covered in dust, and there were several scratches on her face, oozing faint traces of blood

I heard Meng Xilou yawning and lazily said, "Let her in."

The stylist gave a positive answer

I never expected her to say such a thing, and the staff nearby all laughed

Even though Meng Xilou and I are not in the same school, and even though I have not seen him for a long time, he still resides in my heart

At this moment, I finally understand the feelings with which Xia Han scolded me for being foolish, for having only Meng Xilou in my eyes

I stand in the wind, watching Gu Mi Yin tremble, unsure of what to say

During meals, I often wonder if Meng Xilou is also eating. When I sleep, I think about whether he is sleeping as well. In class, I constantly think about what class Meng Xilou is attending, and so on.

I averted my gaze and quietly said to look for Meng Xilou. He raised his voice and shouted: "Meng Xilou, there is a girl looking for you"

Gu Mi Yin looked at Xia Han and me, and the smile on her face instantly froze

Vanjia nodded slightly, and immediately, Meng Xilou's expression darkened.

The end of this farce was brought about by the arrival of two patrolling security guards. Upon seeing the guards, Gu Mi Yin immediately took to her heels.

Such days are beautiful enough just to think about, yet often the most beautiful things are the most illusory

I stared blankly at the person in the mirror, unable to believe that I actually reached this day

But no one answered

I am not a fool; I am aware of many things, but I simply choose not to speak up and expose them

Xia Han and I exchanged glances, unsure of what had happened

Gu Mi Yin said a whole lot of sharp and cutting remarks

When I went to report, I saw Vanga in the crowd. He looked at me from a distance and smiled slightly. He was wearing a plain white outfit, standing out so prominently among the crowd

Xia Han looked up and asked Fan Jia, saying: "What exactly has happened?"

My heart was violently struck by the despair in Xia Han's voice. Seeing her so heartbroken, I leaned in and held her tightly, whispering: "Nothing is absolute."

You go downstairs

Many years later, when everything has changed and people are no longer the same, I have learned how to coordinate my clothing, how to apply makeup, and my smile is always maintained at a proper angle. However, at that time, I find myself missing this youthful foolishness

Perhaps she is merely speaking without intention

By the way, the figures of Vanga and Mengxilou are quite good

Meng Xilou finally relaxed his fists and ran to chase after Gu Mi Yin

Xia Han's mouth is also unforgiving

Some people are so warm that you cannot help but want to get close to them

Meng Xilou strode over in a fit of anger, questioning what was going on with Fan Jia

"Su Xi, just consider this my plea, please sever all ties with Fan Jia, alright..." Gu Mi Yin's eyes were filled with tears. The once proud her, for the sake of the person she loved, had actually gone to plead with the one she despised the most, her demeanor so humble.

I pulled on Xia Han's sleeve, urging her to stop provoking Gu Mi Yin, otherwise these two would surely end up fighting

I stood there in a daze for a few seconds and asked, "Did you make a mistake?"

The four of us find ourselves in an awkward and strange relationship. Whenever the four of us play together, it is always Gu Mi Yin and Fan Jia who share the novel happenings at school, while Meng Xi Lou and I serve as mere background, silently remaining on the side.

Do not go too far

However, an event occurred that finally disrupted the balance between us

Whether one likes or dislikes something is a personal right, and there is no need to question the reasons behind it

She handed the card to the clerk to settle the bill, saying that the clothes and shoes were a gift for my graduation. When I saw the price, I gasped in surprise

When it was my turn, I simply shook my head to indicate that I did not know. The score from the college entrance examination determines which school one can attend, and I did not dare to speak the truth

There are too many insurmountable barriers between Xu Jingchuan and Xia Han, and neither of them has the courage to take the first step. As an outsider, I can only watch anxiously.

As soon as the wine was served, Xia Han drank three full glasses. Xu Jingchuan grabbed her wine glass, preventing her from drinking more. Xia Han, feeling impatient, urged him not to stop her.

The initial reason for repeating the year was to wait for Meng Xilou for one year, as I wanted to go to the same city as him

However, the university life that Xia Han speaks of is far from limited to just these aspects

The dress that Xia Han picked for me was both short and sheer; bending over would definitely lead to a wardrobe malfunction. I absolutely refused to wear it, insisting that she choose another. Xia Han embraces a sexy style, revealing what should be shown and even what shouldn't. She often declares grandly phrases like "visible yet untouchable." Under my strong insistence, she selected a relatively conservative white floral long dress, simple and elegant

My confidence instantly soared, and I even began to look forward to what Meng Xilou's reaction would be at the gathering in the evening

Xia Han's tolerance for alcohol is truly not impressive; after three glasses, her face quickly turned a shade of wine red. She squinted her eyes, leaned against my shoulder, and whispered in my ear: "Su Xi, Su Xi..."

I will come down immediately

There was no particular emotion on Fan Jia's face. After he finished wiping the tables and chairs, he began to chatter: "The wardrobe has just been wiped, so let it air out for a while; don't rush to put your clothes in. Also, don't make the bed just yet; place the bedding provided by the school on the balcony to air out for a while, so it won't have any strange odors..."

Su Xi, Su Xi, it's time to eat!

After speaking, my tears flowed uncontrollably

However, my romantic relationship came about suddenly and with too much intention

She said that Vanga likes me

This is my first time in such a place, so I feel a bit uncomfortable, only focusing on the floor and counting ants. Gu Mi Yin's delicate laughter still lingers in my ears as she playfully asks Fan Jia if her figure is good and whether her skin is fair.

Vajra shook his head and said "It's nothing"

I couldn't recall whose voice it was at that moment, and the other party hung up right after saying that. I looked at the phone screen and then slowly went downstairs.

Third cup, may everyone have a place to return to

I swear to heaven

Xia Han pinched my face and said with great confidence: "Problems that can be solved with money are not problems at all"

I nodded

During high school, I would often lift my head from the mountain of books and could not help but imagine my future university life. In my imagination, university life should be carefree, where every day, apart from attending classes, I would go to a quiet library, sit for a long time, and watch the sunrise and sunset; or I would join a club and meet some friends; or I would take the time to volunteer, giving back with love.

Three black lines could not help but slide down my forehead, as Gu Mi Yin spoke nonsense with her eyes wide open. Every summer, she would go swimming

Gu Mi Yin wanted to say something, but in the end, she just clenched her fists and endured it over and over again

Vanjia said in a formal manner: "Thank you, senior."

I replied: "Sure, for a lifetime"

The destructive power of boys is formidable; within a week, the dormitory has become utterly chaotic

Under Xia Han's brainwashing, I compromised. Because she said: "Wearing this, Meng Xilou will definitely like it"

When I saw the name of the school behind the name of Fan Jia on the list, it was exactly the same as the school I attended. Fan Jia ranked first in the city, with Tsinghua and Peking University as options, and the teachers were all lamenting that he chose to attend a university in the city. It is not that this university is not good, but rather that it falls significantly short when compared to Tsinghua and Peking University

After washing my hands, I bid farewell to Vanka and my roommate, and then I stepped out the door

It turns out there is this underlying reason involved

There are often moments of disappointment

Meng Xilou does not have me in his heart, so no matter how he treats me, it is not excessive

My mind is filled with a multitude of chaotic thoughts, yet I cannot personally seek verification from the Venerable. Ultimately, those tumultuous thoughts were forcibly suppressed by me with a casual attitude

Hmm. Xu Jingchuan did not deny it, carrying the soundly sleeping Xia Han on his back, taking one step at a time on the road

I have long been so hungry that my stomach hurts

Gu Mi Yin looked at me for a long while before slowly saying: "The person Fan Jia likes is you; he told me this in person today"

Gu Mi Yin, even if she was unhappy in her heart, had to maintain her lady-like image in front of Fan Jia: "Meng Xi Lou asked me to come."

Meng Xilou pulled himself out of the game, glanced at his watch, and murmured to himself, "So it's already noon..." He turned around and continued, "You can head back first; I have a lunch appointment with others."

Now that we are liberated, everything can be discussed

The call was quickly connected

And Xia Han lay limp on the ground, numbly watching everything before her

But how should I respond to her

Xia Han chose a pair of wedge sandals for me to change into, with a light green bow at the front. After I put on the shoes, my entire demeanor changed. Setting aside my messy hair, I still looked quite presentable.

Xia Han proudly said, "It was all chosen by me, don't you think my taste is particularly good?"

Gu Mi Yin refused to leave and insisted that Fan Jia escort her home. Fan Jia glanced at me and then reluctantly nodded in agreement. After the two of them left, Xia Han unceremoniously told Xu Jing Chuan to get lost, stating that she did not want to see his face.

I borrowed cotton swabs and antiseptic from the dormitory supervisor to help Xia Han clean her wound in her dormitory. I looked at the scratches on her face with concern and said with red eyes: "You silly..."

I feel somewhat unnatural, and there is still a hint of vanity at play. After all, I have such an outstanding person standing next to me, helping to carry the luggage

I turned my head and looked at Xu Jingchuan's delicate face, asking: "Have you ever considered becoming the heir of the Xia family?"

After washing his clothes and hanging them up, I began to tidy his bed and desk. While organizing the desk, I was moving back and forth in front of Meng Xilou, who had a serious expression and asked, "Can't you wait a moment to clean up? Didn't you see that I am playing a game?"

I have memorized this passage for a long time

After finally finishing her vomiting, she washed her face under the faucet, then carelessly sat down on the floor and began to indulge in drunken revelry

I am extremely tired, and I am also experiencing hallucinations, as I actually saw Meng Xilou standing under the dormitory building

After military training, university life finally got on track. Occasionally, after finishing classes and returning to the dormitory, I suddenly find myself missing Mengxi Building. That feeling of longing is subtle, like the fragrance of gardenias, and before I know it, it fills my entire heart.

Gu Mi Yin's expression changed repeatedly as she was scolded: "Who are you calling a wretched person?"

Many girls nearby gazed at him with an infatuated look, and some even boldly approached to ask for his phone number. Vangari politely declined those individuals and then walked over to me

When we walked out of the restroom, I found Meng Xilou tightly gripping Fan Jia's collar, seemingly ready to fight. Gu Mi Yin was desperately tugging at Meng Xilou's sleeve, while Fan Jia looked on with a calm expression.

I am extremely frustrated; had I known that Meng Xilou would come, I should have dressed more beautifully

After much contemplation, on the weekend, I took the bus to visit Meng Xilou. Upon arriving at his school, when I called him, he seemed to still be asleep, and his tone revealed impatience: "Who told you to call so early?"

However, I have forgotten that people always remember the harm they have suffered, yet they do not cherish the happiness before them

Upon hearing these words, I froze completely, muttering to myself in a daze: "I must be dreaming."

Gu Mi Yin naturally scoffed at it

Xia Han's even breathing sounded in my ears; she had already fallen asleep. However, I was unable to sleep, thinking about what Gu Mi Yin had said.

During the New Year, Vang Jia called the home landline number, and there was caller ID. I secretly noted down the phone number and then dialed it back

Again acting foolishly

I lifted my skirt and greeted Vanga with a smile

Xia Han's words made me chuckle: "Xia Han, what should I do if I didn't have you..."

Meng Xilou's grades have always been at an average level, so he should be able to get into university. I have always held this confidence, hoping that he and I could attend university in the same city. Attending the same university is clearly impossible, as I cannot disappoint my mother again

Meng Xilou took two steps back and said in an unequivocal tone: "From this moment on, you are my girlfriend"

When Meng Xilou and I returned with the water, we saw Gu Mi Yin crying as she slapped Fan Jia, then she shot me a fierce glare and ran away.

Meng Xilou's roommates all say that he has a obedient and diligent girlfriend, but Meng Xilou remained expressionless and said nothing

If I were you, I would pursue her

I turned around, looked into her eyes, and asked blankly: "Is what you said true?"

Xia Han waved her hand and murmured to herself, "The air is so fresh"

I arrived quite early, and almost everything is ready, so I came to pick you up

Where is your luggage

How could such an outstanding person possibly like someone as worthless as me

Xia Han said she felt nauseous, so I hurriedly supported her to the restroom. Just as we were nearing the restroom, Xia Han suddenly broke free from my hand and rushed into the restroom, clutching the toilet and vomiting.

Gu Mi Yin had no desire to attend school; it was merely a matter of going to a vocational school to grow taller. The Gu family's wealth was sufficient to support her for a lifetime

"Whoever I scold is the one."

After the excitement subsided and I came to understand the answer, all that remained in my heart was desolation. That chill felt like the most biting wind of winter, relentlessly sweeping across every inch of my body, until all the blood congealed and ceased to flow

"What are you here for?" Meng Xilou asked with a furrowed brow

I looked at the person in the mirror, foolish and dazed, with a head of messy hair, wearing a white floral long dress, just like a child who has stolen and put on an adult's clothes

Xia Han walked over, put her arm around my shoulder, and said to me: "Su Xi, next time you should just ignore this kind of lunatic"

Gu Mi Yin pouted, pulled the flower from her hair, threw it on the ground, and complained, "Don't ruin my hairstyle..."

Vanjia smiled and agreed

Next time, do not argue with her; she is merely spoiled and too self-centered

I stood before him, feeling somewhat at a loss.

As soon as I entered the dormitory, a sour and pungent smell hit me in the face

I only feel that this dress and shoes are extremely expensive, so I hurriedly grabbed Xia Han's hand and whispered, "We won't buy them; these clothes and shoes are too costly."

Once Xia Han had organized her emotions and reapplied her makeup, she was once again the consistently radiant woman. Xia Han's ability to heal is far superior to mine

Why can't I hear your voice?

Since she has said so, I can only let her do as she pleases

High school seniors are entering the countdown to the college entrance examination

After he dropped this remark, he left resolutely, not even giving me time to think

I have always tied my hair up with a rubber band, and when my bangs grow out, I simply take a pair of scissors to cut them. Therefore, sometimes when the bangs are not cut well, I end up looking rather silly.

The questions in the college entrance examination are not simple, nor are they overly difficult; I performed at a normal level.

This is it! Su Xi, it turns out you need to adopt a fresh and elegant style

I went downstairs and saw Gu Mi Yin with tear-streaked cheeks and swollen eyes

Meng Xilou's gentle movements pierced my eyes

I want to fully engage in this relationship, even if it is not genuine

If she told me that the moon is about to fall to the Earth, I might believe that news, but since the other party is Vanga, I really cannot bring myself to believe it

Meng Xilou was dressed in a white suit, wearing a white top hat and gloves, looking strikingly handsome. A bright red rose was tucked into the pocket of his chest, creating a strong contrast between the white and red. While performing various difficult moves on stage, he occasionally glanced at Gu Mi Yin.

Meng Xilou's bed is on the lower bunk to the right. He has just gotten up not long ago, and his hair is a mess, resembling a bird's nest. Directly facing his bed is a desk, where he sits lazily beside it, yawning.

On a day when Xia Han was clearly very happy, she suddenly said she was sad. In my impression, Xia Han had no idea what sadness felt like. The three words she whispered in my ear made my heart tremble, and I couldn't help but grip her hand tightly.

Fan Jia sat beside Gu Mi Yin, his gaze fixed on Meng Xi Lou, who was performing a mechanical dance on stage

Gu Yuetian has never concerned himself with such matters. He is busy in the factory all day, and it seems that business has been sluggish recently, which is why his brow is always furrowed. The number of cigarette butts in the ashtray is noticeably greater than before

I nodded

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. After a while, Xu Jingchuan also arrived. He was still the same as before, with one hand in his pocket, walking leisurely. He sat next to Xia Han, and the six of them formed a circle.

When a glass of wine was placed in front of everyone, Xia Han raised her glass and boldly declared, "The first glass of wine, let us drink to the sorrows of youth, cheers!" In the midst of her words, Xia Han had already downed her glass, and she filled it again, lifting the cup to me and saying, "The second glass, to friendship!"

Some say that a life without the third year of high school is regrettable. In fact, the fourth year of high school is also a valuable life experience. Everyone in the repeating class is working hard; some are striving to get into their desired school, some are aiming to choose their preferred major, and some have achieved high scores but, for various reasons, did not gain admission to university

Moreover, during this period, Gu Mi Yin has also become less intolerant of me, which is probably my greatest gain

Xia Han poked my forehead and scoffed: "Can you stop being such a goody two-shoes? You make me look like a downright villain."

From then on, every Saturday, I became a free maid invited by Meng Xilou, helping him with laundry, cooking, and tidying up the dormitory, even washing his roommate's clothes as well

The bed in Mengxilou is no different from a dog kennel, and a computer is placed on the desk, while various miscellaneous items are scattered around the rest of the space

What makes me even happier is that my dormitory is right across from the Xiahan dormitory building. Vankia is helping me tidy up the dormitory, and seeing him busy makes me feel particularly embarrassed

After buying clothes, Xia Han took me to get a haircut

I glanced at Meng Xilou, wanted to say something, but in the end, I said nothing and left in silence

Xia Han instructed the waiter to bring wine, saying: "Today we will all drink wine, and no one is allowed to have any other beverages"

Vajra has never belonged to anyone, let alone to me. What right do I have to say otherwise? Setting everything else aside, Vajra is a very good friend of mine; how can I sever that relationship? I have tried to avoid contact with him in the past, but each time I was defeated by his kindness.

Her appearance made me feel that it was actually she who was going to take the exam

Xia Han glanced at him, quickly pulled out some money from her bag, threw it at him, and shouted: "Xu Jingchuan, go as far away as you can! I beg you, never appear in my world again!"

Under her pressure, I compromised. When I asked her why she insisted on going to that bar, she replied: "I want to try the tea I had last time again; if it knocks me over this time, I won't bear the surname Xia!"

After another five minutes, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't brushed my teeth, my hair was a mess, and I was still wearing wrinkled pajamas. In such a situation, Meng Xilou actually confessed his feelings to me

People are always discontented

Before falling asleep, Xia Han held my hand and suddenly said: "Su Xi, let us be like this for a lifetime"

At this moment, Xia Han was in a state of utter disarray, her hair disheveled and her makeup ruined. She began to cry, and it was a loud, wailing cry, her tears smudging her eye makeup, leaving her face streaked with dark marks

Meng Xilou swung a fist towards Fan Jia's nose, and the two of them became entangled, fighting fiercely.

I chose to attend University A, becoming a junior to Xia Han. Gu Mi Yin did not get accepted into any of the three universities and enrolled in a local vocational school, School B. Meng Xi Lou was admitted to a second-tier university, but when the final results were announced, he ended up attending Gu Mi Yin's school.

Only after contemplating these questions did I begin to consider why Meng Xilou suddenly wanted me to be his girlfriend

After his roommate got dressed, he asked, "Is she your girlfriend?"

When Xia Han made this bold statement, I truly did not mock her

As an active member among the students, Xia Han naturally had her responsibilities on the new student reception day, so she was unable to come to pick me up

With one month remaining until the college entrance examination, all classes have concluded, and students are fully engaged in self-study. As soon as class begins, the classroom falls silent, with everyone immersed in diligent study.

Vanjia is quite familiar with the matter of reporting, as he is majoring in Civil Engineering. Xia Han once remarked that boys in Civil Engineering are both earthy and wooden, yet Vanjia is quite different. After entering university, it is certain that more girls will be fond of him

Vanjia also mentioned many points of caution, but I did not pay attention; I merely stared at his figure in a daze, with the occasional thought flashing through my mind that it would be better if the person in front of me were Meng Xilou.

Meng Xilou strode over and said to me, "Su Xi, be my girlfriend."

Gu Mi Yin has such a fiery temperament, it is uncertain what might happen

Gu Mi Yin saw that I remained silent for a long time, quickly stood up, wiped her tears, and pointed at me, scolding: "Su Xi, you are not worthy of Fan Jia! Can you have a little self-awareness? What do you have that compares to me? I am his best choice! I can give Fan Jia the best, what can you offer?"

Meng Xilou softly uttered an "mm", and a hint of sweetness surged in my heart

Xia Han, finding it dull, insisted on dragging me out for a late-night snack and even planned to sing songs all night long. In her words: "A life without an all-nighter is not complete"

If Xia Han knew, she would definitely scold me for being foolish. I clearly understand Meng Xilou's intentions, yet I still agreed to him. Because I see this as an opportunity given to me by Meng Xilou—an opportunity for him to fall in love with me

"He really is not my boyfriend..." I weakly argued

To love someone to such a humble extent is truly a sorrowful state

Not only can lovers promise each other a lifetime, but friends can also make such promises. I still think that one day I will be the protector, rather than the one being protected as I am now. At that time, I am certain that I will be able to walk alongside Xia Han until the end. We will wear matching outfits, leisurely enjoy afternoon tea together, talk about children and family, and discuss various trivial matters, never finding each other bothersome. When we are gray-haired, we will still stroll hand in hand, sharing heartfelt words.

Enemies meet, and their eyes are particularly fierce. When Xia Han saw Gu Mi Yin, she sarcastically asked, "Some people come uninvited; their skin is truly thick"

In my eyes, the figure of Meng Xilou was all I could see. After completing his final suave finishing move, he jumped directly off the stage, took a few steps to Gu Miyin's side, placed the rose in her hair, and said: "Dear princess, may I ask if there is anything I can assist you with?"

I dare not speak of these matters to Xia Han, for I fear she might get into a conflict with Meng Xilou

That was my first kiss, devoid of the beauty I had imagined, and lacking any emotional impact. My reflex arc is relatively long, which makes me somewhat slow to respond.

Hello, who are you

Gu Mi Yin's expression changed quickly; after failing to feign pity, she reverted to her original imposing demeanor

Upon hearing this, my face felt a bit flushed, and then, at Xia Han's request, I invited Fan Jia to hang out.

Meng Xilou glanced at me and continued playing the game

The entire person seems to appear much brighter

My mother has prepared delicious food for me to bring to Gu Mi Yin, and I finally have an excuse to go to School B, all for the slim chance of encountering Meng Xi Lou.

In the evening, everyone arrived on time, and I also informed my mother that I would not be home for dinner. To my surprise, the first person I saw when I entered the bar was Gu Mi Yin. She was wearing a plain white outfit, her hair completely tied up, revealing the tattoo on the back of her neck. Her face was very clean, without any makeup or lipstick, and her lips carried a faint smile. The boldness she once had seemed to have gradually subdued.

Meng Xilou glanced at me and said, "Find a place to sit by yourself," then opened his computer and started playing games. I stood for a while, then silently began to tidy up for Meng Xilou. I placed the dirty clothes from his bed into a basin, then searched under the bed for laundry detergent and started washing the clothes

Finally, Gu Mi Yin became anxious and threatened loudly: "Meng Xi Lou, if you dare to lay a finger on Fan Jia, then you shall never appear before me again"

Vanjia, if anything happens to Gumi Yin, I will be the first to hold you accountable

I handed Xia Han over to him and asked, "Do you like Xia Han?"

You are specifically here to pick me up... I feel a bit embarrassed

I still have lingering fears about that bar; she said this time she wants to bring Xu Jingchuan along and insisted that I call Fan Jia.

Su Xi, please come down quickly, I will take you to eat something delicious

I humbly replied, "I have arrived at your school ... ... "

Dear Customer, Hello, I am a customer service representative from "Starry Avenue" and I am pleased to assist you. I would like to congratulate you on winning the first prize offered by our television station, which includes a cash prize of 30,000 yuan, a Dell laptop, and an iPad

I have decided to act as if I have never heard these words. If they are false, that would be for the best. If they are true, as long as they are not exposed, I can still be friends with Vanga.

That night, Xia Han and I squeezed onto that single bed, sharing countless whispers. I had no idea where the two of us found so much to talk about; although it was mostly her speaking and me listening, neither of us felt bored. Her roommate urged us several times before we finally made the decision to go to sleep

Gu Mi Yin was helping Fan Jia organize her clothes, continuously apologizing: "Fan Jia, I am sorry, Meng Xi Lou has always had this bad temper, please do not take it to heart."

I never thought that she would sacrifice her own happiness to preserve Xia Qijun's career

When this thought arises in my mind, I cannot help but despise myself; clearly, the person in my heart is Meng Xilou, yet I still yearn for the goodness of Fan Jia

Gu Mi Yin also consciously did not disturb Fan Jia, while he helped me highlight key points and solve the problems I did not understand. In the previous monthly exam, I was the top student in the grade, but now he has taken over that position, and his scores are significantly higher than mine. Perhaps the thinking processes of boys and girls differ, which is why girls tend to be a bit slower when solving problems.

The first thing to do upon getting the phone is naturally to call Xia Han. Xia Han expressed that after the college entrance examination, she definitely wants to party all night, with the location being the same bar as last time

Xia Han pinched my face and said, "Su Xi, you are not unattractive, but you don't care much about your appearance. There is a saying you must remember: a woman relies 30% on fate, 70% on hard work, and the remaining 90% is all about looks."

What difference does it make to ask again? There will be no outcome between him and me. If I were an ordinary person, I would definitely strive to be with him, but I am the daughter of Xia Qijun. My father needs someone to inherit his business, but Xu Jingchuan is not that person... Xia Hanxu murmured, her last words drifting in the air

Hello, how are you

"He is not your boyfriend, then I will make my move." said the roommate with a laugh

"What saddens me is not that he kissed another girl, but that there is absolutely no possibility for me and him..." she murmured

Xu Jingchuan shook his head and replied, "I have read little, and can only be considered as making a living, so I am not qualified. It is not that I do not work hard, but rather that I have worked hard, yet I have not received affirmation from Xia Han's father."

Gu Mi Yin looked at Fan Jia's shy appearance and burst into laughter
