A narrow escape

  Gu Chengxi found three consistent things: the majestic and vibrant Ah Mo suddenly became a restless, drifting, and somewhat neurotic Ah Mo.

  She would suddenly stop halfway through walking, counting the number of passing classmates one by one, muttering to herself, saying "it's somewhat interesting" when it was an odd number and "not very interesting" when it was even.

  Also, when eating, they would pick out dishes they didn't want to eat, waste food by putting it to the side, and then excitedly talk to them while pulling them in three different directions, but the content was too boring and uninteresting.

  Sometimes she would pick up her phone and open it, then close it again, unable to dial a number. The expression on her face was clear: to call or not to call, that was the question...

  Many days have passed and Zhao Zimo is still being so neurotic. The three of them try to show their concern, but are all rejected by her in annoyance: she doesn't know how to talk to them...

  Until one day in class...

  The teacher randomly pointed at her, and she was honored to be chosen. At that time, she was seriously distracted and didn't even realize it until a classmate next to her reminded her to stand up. Dazed and confused, she had no idea what the teacher had asked, so she replied irrelevantly: "Don't ask me, I don't understand what he means either, whether he has some meaning or not!"

  The whole classroom fell silent for a second before erupting into thunderous laughter.

  When class was over, there were still many classmates laughing and performing a two-person crosstalk.

  Classmate A: "Is he somewhat interesting or is there nothing special about him?"

  Classmate B: "Don't ask me, I don't understand it either!"

  Zhao Zimo rushed out of the classroom and reflected on her own absurd behavior: She's gone mad! She's possessed!

  Gu Chengxi and Jiang Jiang, as well as Shi Xiaofei, exchanged a glance behind her back, feeling that this wouldn't do. The stunningly beautiful Amu would eventually be rumored to be an empty vase with only weeds inside, although she was originally just a vase, but at least before this, she was a vase filled with ink.

  They caught up with Zhao Zimo, their faces full of worry and anxiety.

  "Ah Mo... "

  "Don't ask anything else. You happy and content people won't understand the sorrow of peach blossoms that only bloom halfway."

  Shi Xiao Fei: "What's going on?"

  Jiang Jiang: "What's wrong?"

  Gu Chengxi: "What's wrong?"

  Why can't they understand human language anymore...

  Later, Gu Cheng Xi had a slight understanding.

  At night after the dormitory lights were turned off, Zhao Zimo crawled into her bed and rubbed against her for a long time before sighing sorrowfully: "Xi ah..."

  Gu Chengxi was already getting sleepy: "Uh-huh... I'm listening..."

  But there was no response for half a day, until Gu Chengxi was about to fall asleep when he heard the mosquito-like voice again: "Your brother really has a girlfriend now?"

  Gu Chengxi responded vaguely: "There is, isn't it..."

  Whether or not he had said it out loud, Gu Chengxi woke up early in the morning and couldn't remember a thing, only knowing that after crawling out of his blanket, Jiangjiang and Shi Xiaofei were still staring at Zhao Zimo with wide eyes.

  Zhao Zimo was dressed neatly, obviously having been up for some time. As for Jiang Jiang and Shi Xiaofei's wide-eyed stares, the reason was that Zhao Zimo was sitting in front of the computer, with Gu Chengge's photos being displayed one by one on the screen. The photos were probably materials for a special feature, and she gazed at them silently, lost in thought.

  Gu Chengxi suddenly realized something: Ah Mo's abnormal behavior was related to his older brother.

  But what's weird is: why did Ah Mo want to rebel? She and her older brother weren't always on good terms, were they?!

  And then there's Ah Mo's problem from last night...

  A very unbelievable feeling emerged in Gu Cheng Xi's heart: Could it be that her beloved older brother still hadn't formally settled the relationship with Ah Mo?!

  Sweat!

  Her extremely excellent elder brother is indeed extremely excellent. Even when talking about romance, he's still... uh... just as silly as she was initially.

  There are now three options for Gu Chengxi:

  First: Directly tell Amu everything she saw and thought, nowadays it's not a big deal for girls to take the initiative. But somehow, since older brother didn't speak up, the issue of naming seems like it shouldn't be decided by her...

  Second: Call and tell her older brother about all the abnormal behavior of Amo that I've seen these days, how about it, shouldn't boys take the initiative? But... who knows if her perverted older brother is waiting for Amo to confess his feelings?

  Third: She does nothing and just watches the show. Although this seems too unkind and unsympathetic, if a third person appears between them, she can play the villain and stab them in the back, but now... If she does something, she will only muddy the waters and feel deeply guilty!

  Gu Chengxi was still studying when Zhao Zimo sighed and shut down his computer, lying listlessly on the table.

  She looks so worried!

  She's so sad!

  She also...

  Didn't sleep well last night, caught a cold and now I have a runny nose!

  Reaching out to grab a tissue from the table, but instead touched something soft and...

  In front of me is a pink square handkerchief with very cute cartoon pictures on it.

  Zhao Zimo was even more melancholic and sorrowful.

  This handkerchief is a rare treasure and return it to her.

  Yes, it is still.

  Because of this handkerchief, it was indeed what she had left at Jipin's place before, and at that time, Jipin seemed to be... heartbroken.

  It was in the winter of the first year of high school that Gu Chengxi and Xiao Chuyan, who were then in their third year of senior high school, were unfortunately labeled as "early love".

  Gu Cheng was extremely afraid of being pointed at and judged by others with strange eyes, she would be so scared that her whole body would tremble.

  Zhao Zimo knew that Gu Chengxi was like this because of the psychological shadow left by her mother Fu Qinghuan's accident. She couldn't bear it, so she took the initiative to find the class teacher and "admit": The person who was "dating" Xiao Chuyan was actually her, Gu Chengxi didn't deny it, but only protected her...

  Then she went on to frequently find Xiao Chuyan, inseparable from him during class breaks, and the gaze placed on Gu Chengxi gradually shifted.

  The storm had completely subsided, and it was Christmas Eve. She also consciously reduced her contact with Xiao Chuyan.

  On Christmas Eve, Xiao Chuyan and Gu Chengxi invited her to go out for a stroll, but she refused, declaring to herself that she had "lost love" again with honor!

  A lone figure rode a bicycle aimlessly through the bustling or quiet streets, finally stopping at the Fireworks Square near the old train station.

  The Fireworks Square has fireworks every night, and various festivals are even more magnificent.

  To commemorate another heartbreak, Zhao Zimo bought a big bag of ice cream and sat under the marble sculpture near the fountain in the city square, looking up at the magnificent fireworks display on this peaceful New Year's Eve.

  It wasn't until the crowd and fireworks had gradually dispersed that she discovered a boy with an exceptionally handsome face sitting at another corner of the sculpture's base.

  Top-notch, absolutely top-notch!

  He sat casually, his left hand propping up his entire body, his right hand holding a bottle of beer, but not drinking it. Instead, he silently gazed upwards at the dark night sky where the fireworks had dispersed, his profile elegant and refined, with an expression in his eyes that seemed both perplexed and despondent.

  As if feeling the gaze beside him, he slightly tilted his head to glance at her, then indifferently turned back and continued drinking beer as if nothing had happened.

  After finishing a can, he put it aside and pushed it to the right with his hand, then opened another one.

  Zhao Zimo was purely picking a fight: "Hey, why didn't you say anything before putting things on my turf!"

  The extremely good-looking guy paused with the beer can in his hand, tilted his head slightly to look at the person who was staring at him with bulging eyes and a furious expression. He lowered his gaze to see that on the marble floor beside him, the beer cans and ice cream boxes were lined up in a straight line on the base of the sculpture, one of which had been pushed by him into the gap between two large marbles...

  Without saying a word, he stretched out his long arm and grabbed back the can of beer that had crossed over to "his territory", continuing to drink.

  Zhao Zimo knew she was being unreasonable, but since the other person wasn't cooperating, there was no point in her putting on a one-man show. Moreover, it seemed like...

  The mood is not very good!

  "Are you heartbroken too?"

  He seemed stunned for a moment, and after a while, he didn't answer but instead asked: "Why would you think I'm heartbroken?"

  "Look, it's all over the ground, our shameful worries."

  He looked over, and after a long while, he bitterly curled up the corner of his mouth: "Yes, I just knew today that the person who has been on my mind all along was never mine to begin with."

  It actually worked!

  "So you were abandoned?"

  "I suppose so."

  Zhao Zimo stared at him without hiding, then typically gloated: "You look so good but were abandoned, now I'm balanced! I've decided, from now on if I can't confirm a lifelong partner, I won't start!"

  Her balanced mood improved, and a bright smile hung on her face without restraint, shining brighter than the white square's illuminating lights around.

  "Hey, is there still beer? Give me a whole hall!" Zhao Zimo was already in high spirits.

  The perfect boy threw a hall over.

  Zhao Zimo drank it all in one breath and said magnificently: "Give me another hall."

  Another hall was thrown over.

  When I threw it into the fourth hall, a sentence followed: "Don't drink too much."

  "Don't worry, I can hold my liquor pretty well. Hey, if you're reluctant to part with your beer, I'll trade it for ice cream!"

  She immediately jumped down from the pedestal of the sculpture, pushed all the ice cream over there, and then hugged his beer.

  Noticing the hint of incredulity in his eyes, she said with a straight face: "I'm telling you, after a breakup, eating ice cream will improve your mood. My mood has already improved, now it's your turn to sympathize with me, yeah, that's right."

  Turning around, she ignored the suspicion in his eyes and smiled slyly.

  She bought too much ice cream, if she eats it all by herself, she'll turn into an ice pop... what a waste and a pity...

  She drank beer and he ate ice cream, but they didn't talk much.

  Zhao Zimo's drinking capacity is not just good, it's shockingly good. A dozen beers go down and it's like he's only had water, while the top-quality boys...

  "Ah cha——"

  This is already the last one of the first dozen!

  Zhao Zimo's guilt shot up, and he pulled out a pink square handkerchief: "Wipe it for you..."

  She shouldn't have let him eat so much ice cream on such a cold night!

  After taking it, Zhao Zimo jumped down from the sculpture base: "Hey! I have to go home, thank you for your beer, and this handkerchief is what I left with you, I'll come back here tomorrow night, remember to return it to me!"

  The parents' courtship was when the mother had given a handkerchief to the father, and the mother had warned her that a handkerchief should not be casually given to anyone!

  But she didn't go the next night...

  When filming the dormitory, she saw a rare item and didn't realize it was that boy with one side until she fell off her bicycle due to Congrong's carelessness.

  It wasn't until she took the handkerchief from him that it suddenly came back to her, like a flash of lightning, and for a moment, her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but have some wild fancies.

  But it was just a fantasy after all, she didn't dare to hope that the handkerchief on this floating cloud would be kept until now because of some thoughts about her!

  But now, if that one night was really because of a broken heart...

  "My lover's seat, the one who is allowed to sit there will own this position for a lifetime."

  That is to say, someone has already been allowed to sit in the ultra-luxurious lover's seat...

  That is to say, Ji Pin has a girlfriend...

  That is to say, that position will belong to his girlfriend for a lifetime...

  Zhao Zimo felt that her romantic luck was actually a tragic play!
