...

My head is spinning.

Lin Xi opened her eyes and found herself lying in a strange place.

It feels somewhat familiar, yet I can't quite put my finger on it.

"You're awake?"

A cute, childlike voice rang out, and Lin Xi turned her head sharply. A pretty young woman in a white lab coat was smiling at her.

She has single eyelids, a high nose bridge, and a figure that seems similar to mine.

I feel like I've seen this somewhere before.

What's wrong with me?

"I don't know, maybe he fainted from overworking his brain."

Lin Xi touched her slightly throbbing head. "Overworking my brain?"

"Um!"

Lin Xi was indeed startled by the voice.

It's too sweet, sickeningly sweet.

Where is this place?

"The school clinic! Little girl, have you gone crazy from studying so much?"

What school is it?

"No. 2 High School, what? Have you forgotten which high school you went to?" The school doctor teased her with a smile.

"That can't be right... but I seem to remember that I've already finished the college entrance exam."

"Oh no, it seems you've really gone mad. You still have three months until the college entrance exam." The school doctor shook her head regretfully. "Should we call your parents to come and take you to the hospital? If you have a brain problem, that would be really bad. Don't let it ruin your college entrance exam."

Lin Xi found it strange.

Yes, it's very strange.

But she couldn't quite put her finger on what was strange about it.

The school doctor glanced at his phone. "Hmm, the timing is perfect. You don't need to ask for leave."

The bell rang immediately to signal the end of get out of class.

Lin Xi looked out the window and saw several sparrows on the branches, as if they were standing on a hot pan, never stopping for a moment.

Lin Xi only came to her senses and prepared to leave after watching them spread their wings and fly away.

"Hey, classmate, you left your backpack behind."

A white printed backpack, a very simple design. Lin Xi remembered that Lin Wang had bought it for her on her birthday last year.

She turned around, picked up her schoolbag, and walked back.

The neighborhood was no different from usual. The old lady downstairs was having a great time with her grandson, who had just come home from school, on the playground equipment.

The community store owner was happily scrolling through videos when Lin Xi reached into his pocket and pulled out a crumpled five-yuan note.

She slurped her saliva. "Boss, I'd like a can of Coke."

"Okay, take it yourself." The shopkeeper gave him ten yuan in change and continued to grin foolishly while holding his phone.

Lin Xi shook her head. If the boss were robbed one day, he probably wouldn't even be able to react.

Short videos are truly harmful.

"Hey! You've got the wrong person."

Inside the elevator, a couple was arguing.

Lin Xi subconsciously moved a little closer to the corner.

I've heard that a lot of couples these days start fighting after arguing, and judging by how they're acting, it'll probably happen soon.

She lowered her head and silently bit her straw.

"Liu Ye, do you really have to argue with me over such a small thing?" The young woman looked exasperated.

The man, taking advantage of the situation, said, "What do you mean I'm arguing with you? Wu Jing, let me tell you, with your looks, if I didn't want you, you wouldn't even be able to find a man! Just listen to what I say, and don't try to control me, understand?"

Wu Jing looked at him in disbelief. "You think this is what I think of you? You bastard!"

"What's wrong? I'm just stating the facts. You think my words are unpleasant? You should stop talking nonsense with me. Do you think I need to bring up these things?" Liu Ye said with a mocking tone.

He looks quite like a petty thug.

Lin Xi made a mental assessment.

This girl is pretty; this guy is using psychological manipulation on her.

Although she dared not speak, she kept repeating in her mind: Don't believe it, don't believe it, don't believe it.

This guy is so unkempt and has such a strange temper; he's the one who won't find a wife.

Sure enough, the young lady looked disappointed. "Liu Ye, I've had enough of you. Let's break up."

A crack appeared on the man's face. "What are you talking about?"

He was clearly flustered. "Take back what you just said. I'll give you a chance to rephrase your words."

The young woman took a deep breath and repeated, "Break up! Trash!"

The elevator has arrived.

Coincidentally, they were on the same floor.

Lin Xi dawdled over the keys, actually listening intently to what was going on. The man kept grabbing the young woman's hand, but without turning her head, she slammed the door shut, locking him out.

Cool!

"Ugh!"

Liu Ye stared at her with eyes as fierce as a jackal's.

Lin Xi shook her head. "Sigh, I drank that Coke too fast."

As she spoke, she slowly opened the door, calmly went inside, and then quickly slammed the door shut and locked it in one smooth motion.

"Little one? What's wrong?"

Lin's mother was wearing a dress with a light blue knitted cardigan on top. Her whole demeanor was gentle and graceful, quiet and elegant.

Lin Xi hid the cola behind her back. "There's a couple arguing outside. It's scary."

Lin's mother saw right through her little trick. "Drinking cola again? How many teeth have you had filled this year? Don't you ever learn?"

Speaking of this, Lin Xi still felt a slight tingling in her teeth.

It's so painful.

His mouth was open for a long time before he could close it.

Moreover, some of the ingredients are both sour and bitter.

But losing Coke is more painful than getting a filling.

That was terrifying! I need to take another drag.

She smacked her lips.

After tasting it for a while, why does it taste a little bland?

You bought a pirated copy? That can't be right, even cola has pirated versions?
