two

Hutao asked him: "What about Lin Xiangyu? Has he gone to play basketball?"

Unexpectedly, five years have passed in the blink of an eye; time has indeed moved on, and he has also departed, leaving her alone to wait.

It seems so, " Xu Cheng scratched his head, " but I can't remember very clearly. Don't all girls look somewhat similar? "

Lin Xiangyu was taken aback for a moment, then realized what she meant, feeling a bit embarrassed for the first time, scratching his head and saying, "We are not that familiar yet"

She spoke with great difficulty: "That girl, does she have long hair, somewhat resembling the Jiangnan girl described in poetry?"

What are you still playing basketball for? You have gone to the Olympiad class.

Lin Xiangyu is a person of remarkable charm and elegance, but when he puts on glasses, he transforms into a scholarly rogue

Lin Xiangyu smiled and waved his hand: "Goodbye"

Hu Tao felt that in the blink of an eye, a thought flashed through her mind, but she was unable to grasp it

Do you feel that after Lin Xiangyu joined the Olympiad team, he seems like a different person

Hu Tao asked: "Aren't you going to send her back?"

It was not until after school that Hu Tao realized that Xu Cheng, who was on the same basketball team as Lin Xiangyu, had a good relationship with him

No, I originally had something to discuss with you, but I suddenly forgot

Hu Tao had already inferred his meaning from his vague words. She stood in place, as if struck by a bolt of lightning from the sky, leaving her feeling utterly powerless.

Well, it can be considered, but not really. Xu Cheng's words carry deeper meaning.

At that moment, the girl beside Lin Xiangyu lifted her head. From the position where Hu Tao stood, she could only see her profile, bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, making her appear as if she were in a fairy tale world

This is the first time Hu Tao has seen Lin Xiangyu display such a gentle expression. In her memory, he is forever that boy sitting on the wall, smiling indifferently to the world, as depicted in the *book*.

Hutao nodded, turned around, and suddenly everything went dark before her eyes, causing her to sway slightly. Lin Xiangyu promptly reached out to support her, saying, "Be careful"

Then he stole a glance at Walnut and said firmly: "Except for you"

One day during class, Cheng Kexin secretly spoke to Hu Tao

The Osaiban is located in another building, connected to the classroom where Hu Tao and the others usually attend classes by a corridor, and Hu Tao has never been there before

Walnut was somewhat puzzled: "What happened?"

Hu Tao then made an effort to catch her breath and softly asked, "Who is it?"

Hutao, however, was not in the mood to joke with him and stood there in a daze. Beside her, Xu Cheng was still coming up with ridiculous ideas: "The classroom where they are having extra lessons is just in the building behind us. Come on, I'll take you to spy on them."

"I can't believe my eyes!" Hu Tao was startled

"Goodbye," she replied softly, and then ran away

"Your memory, " Lin Xiangyu smiled, "is just right, let me treat you to milk tea."

In the blink of an eye, Hu Tao realized, it was Xu Ranran from Class 7. Wasn't that the name on the borrowed library card?

Hu Tao had been standing outside the classroom, not knowing when Xu Cheng, who brought her here, had left. It was only when Lin Xiangyu finished school that the usual scene unfolded: he casually slung his backpack over one shoulder and walked out. Upon seeing Hu Tao, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "What are you doing standing here?"

Hutao looked towards Lin Xi's position and discovered that the books on his desk were surprisingly organized. He even pretended to wear a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, seemingly paying close attention in class

A few boys walked down the corridor and called out Xu Cheng's name. He smiled and high-fived them, then turned around and saw Hu Tao still standing in place. He said, "What book are you holding in your hands? Let me help you carry it."

It was only then that Hu Tao came to her senses and numbly opened the book for him to see

He sat in the third-to-last row of the old classroom, twirling a pen while leaning over to talk to the girl next to him. Walnut stood outside the window, somewhat distractedly thinking that his hair seemed to have grown longer, slightly covering his forehead and eyes

Xu Cheng stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Hu Tao: "Hu Tao?"

Walnut waved her hand: "I've been standing for a while, my legs are a bit numb"

At the end of class, Hu Tao was pulled by Cheng Kexin to go to the restroom together. By the time they returned to the classroom, Lin Xiangyu had already disappeared without a trace. Due to a series of unfortunate events, Hu Tao had no opportunity to speak with him alone all day.

Isn't it so

"You can just ask the person directly," Xu Cheng shrugged, "Someone has recently been favored by the red star."

She turned her head, glanced at Lin Xiangyu, and then looked at Hu Tao

Xu Cheng did not notice Hu Tao's unusual behavior and spoke to her in detail: "Xu Ranran from Class 7, I don't even know how I got to know him. You know what he's like, very tight-lipped. I've seen him frequenting the library and the after-school Olympiad class the most recently."

She opened her mouth, and after a long while realized that her throat was too dry to speak

"Osaban?" Hu Tao furrowed her brows and pondered, "Did he encounter a Waterloo in Osaban? He actually studied diligently!"

As soon as Lin Xiangyu finished speaking, Xu Ranan walked out of the classroom with her backpack, her head lowered and her expression hurried. Lin Xiangyu quickly shouted loudly: "Xu Ranan!"

Hutao thought for a moment: "I will ask after class."

Xu Chengxian made a gesture for silence in a mysterious manner, indicating for Hu Tao to hide in the corner. Following the direction of his finger, Hu Tao indeed saw Lin Xiangyu.
