"Did you two have a fight?"

Lin Xun and Su Qingshi were both somewhat surprised to hear Su Qi's words.

Su Qi nodded with a somewhat sad expression: "Yes, so as soon as the holidays started, she went home by herself without even saying goodbye to me."

Lin Xun asked curiously, "What caused you two to argue?"

Su Qi scratched his head: "Actually, it was also because of me. We were fine at first, but on the weekend, I went out to play games with my friends and didn't answer her call. Then she got angry. And at that time, we had a tutoring plan, which I forgot about. After she got angry, I didn't try to coax her."

At this point, he said dejectedly, "I don't know why. I really like her, but when I'm upset, I don't want to coax her anymore. Later, things got worse and worse, and it turned into a cold war."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xun and his companion roughly understood what was going on.

Su Qingshi said calmly, "That's normal. At your age, arguments and cold wars happen all the time. But the point is, you had already made plans for the weekend. You broke the agreement first, didn't you?"

Su Qi smiled wryly and said, "Cousin, people get tired when they are under pressure for too long. I've been having Xiaoya tutor me lately, and my grades have improved, but it seems like I've reached my limit. Then I probably got tired of studying and started to get a little emotional."

Lin Xun interjected, "The question now is, do you still like her?"

Su Qi lowered his head in silence, then nodded: "I like it."

Lin Xun said, "Since you still like her, then have a good talk with her. You're a grown man, it's just a matter of apologizing, what's so hard about that?"

Su Qi is only a first-year high school student. To be honest, at this age, he still likes to have fun. That's why girls see him as immature, because they can't see a future with him. This is one of the reasons why young people argue and break up.

Su Qi looked conflicted.

He's a bit of a straight man; you can ask him to make any kind of joke, but he still struggles a bit when it comes to humbly and actively coaxing a girl.

After all, I was also very angry.

Lin Xun knew what he was thinking and advised, "I know you also have grievances in your heart, and it may be the girl's fault, but if two people want to continue to be together, one of them must show weakness. Otherwise, if the cold war continues, the rift between you will only grow wider and wider."

Su Qi was taken aback, then fell into thought.

After a long silence, he stood up and said seriously, "I understand. I'll go find her."

"They've all gone home, are you going to go with them?" Su Qingshi said calmly.

Su Qi's face stiffened.

Lin Xun patted him on the shoulder: "Let's wait for a chance. Anyway, you're on holiday these few days, so you have plenty of time to have a good chat."

"Thank you, brother-in-law," Su Qi said gratefully.

Lin Xun smiled slightly: "Keep up the good work, and don't forget to study."

"Um!"

After helping Su Qi load his luggage into the car, the group left the high school.

The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) is proceeding as scheduled, and all regions are paying close attention to this year's exam.

The news and short video became trending topics.

"It's been a year. Watching them finish their college entrance exams always gives me the feeling of looking at my past self."

Lin Xun sighed.

"Yes, I didn't expect a year to go by so quickly, it really caught me off guard."

Gou Shengli was scrolling through short videos.

"Look, this guy was the first to rush out of the exam room and got interviewed."

"Damn! I thought he was all confident, but it turns out he's planning to go lay bricks!"

Looking at the school gate cordoned off in the video, Lin Xun felt a pang of nostalgia.

I vaguely remember that he was the first one to walk out of the examination room last year.

At that time, I was in a great state and full of confidence.

Of course, it was also around that time that his parents confronted him about the truth.

He still remembers the scene of his father picking him up in a Rolls-Royce.

Really...

"Oh, I'm so envious. It's been two years since I took the college entrance exam. I've almost forgotten what high school was like."

Liu Gang's expression was complicated.

He joined the army right after finishing the college entrance examination.

"Speaking of Gangzi, is life in the army really enjoyable?" Gou Shengli suddenly asked curiously.

Liu Gang glanced at him and chuckled, "Let me put it this way, if you go in looking like this, you'll probably come out two years later without any of your usual fat."

Gou Shengli: ...

"What are the conditions like inside?" Wu Da asked.

Liu Gang said, "The benefits are excellent. They provide food, lodging, and clothing, plus allowances. Although it can be physically tough, most people are still quite happy."

He briefly explained the benefits of military service to the group.

"To be honest, if I have the chance, I should still go there. It's a way to leave a dazzling mark on my youth," Liu Gang said with a slight smile.

"Forget it, I can't stand the suffering in there. I'd rather just be a college student. I have a girlfriend, who would want to give her up to go to some godforsaken place?"

Gou Shengli curled his lip, showing no interest in the matter.

Lin Xun nodded in agreement.

He also longed to join the army, but he was reluctant to actually do so.

Because he already has someone by his side who needs his constant protection.

He couldn't bear to be apart from her.

Wu Da, on the other hand, seemed to be deep in thought.

"Sigh, another semester is almost over."

"Next semester, we'll be sophomores, right?"

"Those high school students who have just finished the college entrance exam will come and take over after a summer vacation. It's like the school is a constant while the students come and go."

"Who cares? It's rare that I don't have class today, let's get in!"

"Come!"

…

That evening, Lin Xun prepared to go find Su Qingshi.

As Lin Xun walked down the street, many people were secretly watching him.

Since that marriage proposal ceremony caused a sensation at the school, almost everyone knows Lin Xun.

Whenever people see him, the words "the school beauty's fiancé" immediately come to mind.

Lin Xun naturally welcomed everyone's gaze with ease.

He wanted everyone to know that he was Su Qingshi's fiancé!

Su Qingshi is under his protection!

However, the haters have now disappeared, which is also because of that incident last time.

Nanjing University is now a peaceful and quiet place.

Information about Su Qingshi and Lin Xun is like a taboo; whoever speaks ill of them will be implicated!

Stepping into the library, Lin Xun skillfully went upstairs.

On the third floor, Lin Xun saw a familiar person in a familiar spot.

With a faint smile on his lips, he walked towards the other person.

At this moment, Su Qingshi sat on the stool, slightly bowing, her hand holding the pen trembling.

Lin Xun looked over and discovered that she was actually drawing.

Su Qingshi was not surprised to see Lin Xun there. She glanced at him, then calmly lowered her head and continued with her own business.

Lin Xun sat down opposite her naturally, propping his chin up and looking at her.

He didn't pay much attention to what the girl was doing; he was more captivated by looking at his senior's face than by anything else.
