As Qiao Chu became more and more beautiful and her academic performance improved, her name gradually spread throughout Haishi No. 1 Middle School and her popularity grew. She was even more popular than the school belle Yu Siying. The aura of this beautiful and top student made many young boys fall in love with her.

The entrance to their class was getting more and more crowded during breaks, and Qiao Chu was encountering more and more people. Even during meals, some strange students came up to her and started chatting with her. This made her very annoyed recently. Her mind was now filled with only studies, and she had never thought about falling in love.

Their school has a clear ban on premature love, but boys and girls of this age are in their prime, their emotions are poetic, they are ignorant about love, and are full of expectations and yearnings. It is easy for them to develop a liking for the opposite sex. Many of them are secretly dating, and the school can't catch them and can't do anything about them.

Qiao Chu had been in love in her previous life, but she felt it was just so-so and the memories were not particularly good. Therefore, she has no idea of ​​falling in love too early. In her plan, she will at least wait until college before considering it.

She turned a blind eye to the overt and covert pursuits and advances of the boys around her, and always put her studies first.

However, her rejection did not make those admirers retreat, but had the opposite effect. Instead, they felt that Qiao Chu was special. No matter how outstanding the suitors were, she remained unmoved. She was truly a pure and unpretentious girl! Completely different from those girls who can be hooked up with a little favor.

If you bloom, butterflies will come.

It is true that if a person is too outstanding, he will unconsciously attract butterflies.

But Qiao Chu prefers the next sentence: If you are brilliant, heaven will arrange everything for you.

She believed that if she lived her life wonderfully enough, sooner or later, God would arrange a perfect relationship for her, but - definitely not now!

Her current task is to study. Studying has gradually become her habit. Moreover, she has found pleasure in studying day and night. As for other things, let's talk about it later. After all, she is only 15 years old now.

During morning self-study time, Sun Qi took out another stack of letters from the class mailbox.

Each class has a dedicated mailbox. After the school mailroom receives the letters, it will put the letters of each class into the class's dedicated mailbox. Each class will then send a dedicated person to take out the letters and distribute them to the classmates. Sun Qi is the person in charge of picking up the letters in Class 1, Grade 12. Thanks to Qiao Chu, Sun Qi's workload has increased dramatically recently. He has to pick up letters every day, and there are several letters every day. However, most of them were given to Qiao Chu.

Sun Qi sorted the letters in his hand, picked out Qiao Chu's, and handed it to her, "Here, your letter."

Today, there were two more letters, in beautiful envelopes and ambiguous colors. They were not serious letters at first glance. Qiao Chu was used to it. She took the letter and said, "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."

Then he casually put the letter on the desk in the hall.

She has received quite a few love letters like this recently, and she finally arranged for them to be thrown into the trash can. However, after throwing away one batch, another batch would arrive, and she had no choice...

"Xiao Qiao, you are so popular recently."

Shen Ling next to him joked.

"Chen Ling, please don't embarrass me, okay..."

Shen Ling snickered: "How am I embarrassing you? I'm just envious of you. You are so popular in our school now! To be honest, Xiao Qiao, you are getting more and more beautiful, and you are good at studying. If I were a boy, I would probably like you too."

"Oh? Really?" Qiao Chu rolled his eyes and smiled slyly, "If you were a boy, maybe I would consider you. After all, you are my good friend."

Shen Ling pouted, looking sad: "It's a pity...I'm not a boy..."

Finally, the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

After the joke, Shen Ling suddenly glanced at Qiao Chu's desk, pointed at the paper bag hanging next to her, and asked, "Xiao Qiao, what is in this bag of yours? It has been hanging here for two days."

Qiao Chu paused and said hesitantly, "It's a friend's coat. He lent it to me."

"Oh, then is it okay for you to hang here all the time? Are you not going to return it to the owner? The weather is quite cold recently, doesn't your friend need it?"

“…I don’t think so…”

Qiao Chu replied uncertainly.

As soon as she got home that day, she took the coat to the laundry, and she picked it up two days ago but had not returned it to Fu Zhen. She knew it was not a good idea, but when she thought of the embarrassing situation that day, she couldn't muster up the courage. She wanted to find a hole to crawl into. However, dragging it out like this was not a solution...

During lunch break, after eating, Qiao Chu came to the door of Class 1 of Grade 3 with a bag.

She thought about it and felt that she should return the coat to Fu Zhen as soon as possible so as not to delay his use. Originally, she wanted to ask Jiang Yuzhou to pass it on, but who knew that by coincidence, Jiang Yuzhou had taken a leave of absence today.

"Excuse me, is Fu Zhen here?"

"Fu Zhen, he's not here. I just saw him in the playground. You can go look for him over there."

"OK, thanks."

Qiao Chu searched the entire playground but couldn't see any trace of Fu Zhen. Finally, she gave up and decided to come back another time. When she was walking back, she met Fu Zhen.

Isn’t that tall and slender figure next to the flower bed Fu Zhen?

"Senior Fu!"

Fu Zhen turned around, and when he saw her, he stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

Qiao Chu handed over the bag in his hand and said, "I'm here to return my coat. Thank you for that day..."

Thinking of what happened that day, Fu Zhen's face also looked a little uncomfortable, "You keep it for use."

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qiao Chu thought he disliked her for dirtying her coat, and hurriedly said, "I've already sent it to the dry cleaners and ironed it, don't worry, Senior Fu, and... there was no blood stain that day..."

By the end of her speech, her face had turned red with shame, and her head was lowered as if it was about to touch the ground.

Blood...

Hearing these two words, Fu Zhen's mind unconsciously emerged with the large area of ​​blood red he saw that day...

Ahem——

He cleared his throat awkwardly, but finally took the bag, "Well... okay."

After that, the two of them fell silent, and an awkward atmosphere spread.

However, this is just what they think. To outsiders, it is a different understanding.

The cool and handsome boy and the pure and beautiful girl stood quietly facing each other. The boy leaned over and whispered something. It was unknown what he said. The girl lowered her head shyly. White cornflowers were blooming around them...

What a loving couple, a big scene of showing off their love!

Although this is extremely far from the truth, in Yu Siying's opinion, what she sees is the truth!

"What are you doing!?"

She screamed and rushed in front of the two men. Perhaps it was because she was walking too fast or because she was too emotional, but her chest was heaving violently, like a turbulent sea.

She came up and questioned Qiao Chu: "Who are you! Why are you pestering Fu Zhen!"

Her eyes were as sharp as knives, and she had already cut Qiao Chu into pieces with them.

Qiao Chu was stunned...

What's going on?

"I……"

Without waiting for Qiao Chu to speak, Yu Siying immediately changed her attitude and turned to Fu Zhen, looking weak and about to cry, and choked up and said, "Fu Zhen, who is she? Why are you dating her here?"

Qiao Chu was watching on the side, stunned. How could he have two faces? Isn't this face changing too fast? Could it be a Sichuan Opera face-changing actor?

Fu Zhen frowned and remained silent.

His silence made Yu Siying even sadder. She covered her chest and took two steps back. "You... I have done so much for you, and you are indifferent. Now you are secretly dating someone else. Is your heart made of stone? My feelings for you... Can't you see it?"

Hearing this, Qiao Chu, who didn't want to get involved in other people's emotional entanglements, decided to clarify it to avoid misunderstandings.

"It's not what you see. Actually, we just now..."

"I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen!"

Who would have thought that when Yu Siying heard Qiao Chu's voice, she suddenly became agitated. She covered her ears and shook her head frantically, as if she had received a great shock and could not accept the reality before her.

Qiao Chu was shocked, and she felt a strange sense of familiarity in her heart——

This kind of scene, this kind of dialogue, this classic configuration of two women and one man...

"I have a dream, but I don't know with whom I can share it. There are so many secrets in it..."

She seemed to hear that classic song in her ears, and a Qiong Yao drama was about to begin.

Qiao Chu was speechless for a moment, and complained in his heart: Sister, have you watched too many Qiong Yao dramas?

She looked at Yu Siying who was still acting, then turned to look at the leading actor who remained silent, and winked at him, asking him to explain, or at least to calm the emotions of this acting genius.

Then, Fu Zhen finally spoke. As expected of a Qiong Yao male protagonist, he shocked the entire audience as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Who are you?"

Qiao Chu and Yu Siying were both shocked.

Especially Yu Siying, her face turned pale, as if she had lost her strength, and she trembled as she spoke: "...You...you actually...don't know me?"

Fu Zhen frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "Should I know you?"

"ah--"

Yu Siying suddenly screamed, covered her face and turned and ran away.

“…”

After a while, Qiao Chu turned around in disbelief and asked, "You really don't know her?"

Fu Zhen nodded as a matter of course and said, "I have no impression."

“…”

Qiao Chu was speechless.

After a moment, her shoulders began to shake more and more violently, and then her face began to twist...

This was obviously a sad story, but forgive her, she really couldn't help but laugh.

“Hahahaha – hahaha –”

Qiao Chu finally couldn't control her laughter and burst out laughing. It was as if someone had pressed her funny point. The urge to laugh kept coming up. She seemed to have lost control and laughed so hard that tears came out.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Fu Zhen still looked indifferent, "Is it funny?"

"Hahahaha—that's so funny! You...hahaha...you don't even know her?"

Qiao Chu laughed and wiped away tears, "You are so funny, aren't you? Haha... You don't know her? Haha... She is the beauty of our school... She is crazy about you and even studied science for you. The entanglement between the two of you can write a book, and you actually... don't know her?"

Qiao Chu laughed so hard that he could hardly straighten his back.

Fu Zhen didn't say anything, just watched her laughing wildly.

Qiao Chu laughed for a long time, and finally laughed enough. She straightened up, with a smile still on her lips, and teased: "Senior Fu, you are too slow, aren't you?"

The Qiong Yao drama just now diluted the previous awkwardness between the two people. The atmosphere at this moment became particularly relaxed, and Qiao Chu unconsciously started to make jokes.

"My entanglement with her?" Fu Zhen narrowed his eyes, "Are you enjoying the show?"

Qiao Chu's smile froze on his face, "Uh..."

Ring, ring, ring——

The bell rang, signaling the end of lunch break.

"Senior Fu, class is about to start. I'm leaving first."

After saying that, Qiao Chu turned around and ran towards the teaching building.
