"The class next door is so lively this morning."

"Oh my god, is their class having any activities today? I just went to take a look, and everyone got breakfast. What kind of food does our school cafeteria have?"

"It seems like there's a day student here, and he bought food for them from outside."

"I'm so envious! Can our class also have a boy who helps distribute meals?"

The classrooms of Class 1 and Class 2 are facing each other, so no matter what happens between them, the other class will know about it soon.

For example, today Class 1 had a special off-campus breakfast service, and Class 2 found out about it as soon as they arrived.

Amidst the noisy discussions, Li Xinran was probably the only one who remained unmoved.

She had put aside her distress over having her phone confiscated yesterday and now had a happy smile on her face. She seemed to be in a good mood, which made her deskmate look at her strangely several times.

Gu Cijiang obviously noticed it too, and he asked curiously, "Did your phone get returned to you?"

Li Xinran's smile grew even brighter upon hearing this. She turned around and explained with a beaming expression, "Yes! I just realized that classmate yesterday had good intentions. The director was in the corridor at the time, and when she saw us taking our phones, she came over and pretended to confiscate them. She came to me after evening study yesterday and returned my phone!"

She raised the bun in her hand and said happily, "I ran into her this morning when I came to the classroom. She knew I didn't have time to buy breakfast, so she gave me one. It was stuffed with preserved vegetables and it was delicious!"

My deskmate scoffed at what I said: "Can you be more promising? A bun that costs less than two yuan can make you so happy."

Li Xinran didn't like what she heard. She deliberately took a big bite of the bun and said proudly, "Hey, it smells so good, much better than what's in the school cafeteria. Some people just can't eat buns and say they're sour!"

Gu Cijiang couldn't help laughing out loud.

My deskmate snorted angrily and lowered his head to go back to morning reading.

As soon as Teacher Jiang entered the room, he heard a simultaneous sound. Everyone put their hands in their table pockets tacitly, but the smell of food in the air still could not be "destroyed".

What else did the little old lady not understand? She adjusted her glasses, slowly glanced around the classroom, and said with a smile: "Is this our classroom? I thought I had walked into Sunshine Farm by mistake."

Seeing that the head teacher still had the leisure to joke, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, squinting their eyes and laughing in cooperation.

Teacher Jiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, stop hiding it. Eat quickly if you want to. You won't be able to eat after the bell rings."

The student at the front desk cheered happily: "Love you, teacher!"

The other students also followed suit and praised the head teacher. At the same time, they took out their breakfast and started eating with relish.

Shen Anyan had already eaten on the way to school and was now sitting in her seat flipping through her textbook. There was an opening exam tomorrow, and although she didn't care much about the results, she didn't want to rank last on her first try.

She majored in astronomy, with advanced mathematics being a required course. There were also related public courses offered every year, and she was also good at college English. Therefore, she only needed to cram for history and geography.

The person at the next table noticed her movements and couldn't help but click his tongue and said, "You can actually study on the first day of school?"

Shen Anyan said: "Just take a look, there is nothing else to do anyway."

The people at the next table nodded admiringly and said nothing more.

There was nothing new covered in class today, and the teachers knew that everyone’s minds had not yet fully recovered. Plus, there was an exam the next day, so they either asked everyone to study on their own or randomly checked their holiday homework.

After all, Class 1 was the top class in the liberal arts department, so everyone had some self-control. After the lazy morning reading, most of the class settled into a learning state.

He Qingtian has her own review plan. Instead of just reading the textbook, she took out a set of test papers and practiced the questions to get a feel for it.

She was very fast and could finish a set of papers in almost half an hour. During the breaks, He Qingtian couldn't help but sneak a few glances at her deskmate.

Students of this age are not really sensitive to beauty or ugliness. After all, as long as they have spirit, young people will look radiant.

But Shen Anyan is an exception.

She is indeed one of those people who looks very outstanding, and she has a special temperament that always makes people focus their attention on her.

Thinking of this, He Qingtian expressed his thoughts to the other party while chatting.

After hearing this, Shen Anyan explained naturally: "That's normal, I'm already nineteen this year."

He Qingtian was stunned for a moment and moved closer to the other person in disbelief.

"Nineteen? So... well, I mean, you look quite young."

Shen Anyan smiled and said, "I'm not much older than you guys, so I can't tell there's much difference in appearance."

The student sitting in front of me was so exhausted from studying that he immediately turned around when he heard someone talking about something and joined the conversation between the two people behind.

"Are you already an adult? Then there's no time limit for gaming! That would be too good to be true!"

Shen Anyan: …Actually, she doesn’t have money to buy a cell phone yet.

The people at the next table also came over to join in the fun: "Have you ever been to a bar? How was it? Was it fun?"

Shen Anyan said: "I've been there a few times, but I was always there with my cousin. It wasn't interesting, so I haven't been there since."

The person at the front table sighed with envy: "I want to go too, and I want to order some male models!"

Shen Anyan: "... Let's wait until you're an adult to discuss this kind of thing!"

Maybe they were talking a little too loudly, so the teacher on the podium coughed a few times as a reminder.

He Qingtian quickly made a "hush" gesture, and everyone returned to their seats and continued to review.

————

After the day's classes ended and before evening self-study began, everyone set up the examination room in advance as usual.

Shen Anyan's seat was in the front row, and was also divided into the area where seats needed to be moved out.

The person at the front desk packed up his things in advance, and when everyone started to set up the examination room, he took the initiative to come over and help move Shen Anyan's table and chairs.

Shen Anyan tried to refuse: "I can do it myself..."

The person at the front desk waved his hand and said, "Hey, look at your small body, you're not suitable for this kind of physical work, just leave it to me."

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves to show the other person the smooth muscles on her arms.

Shen Anyan compared his height and body shape with the other person, who were of similar height and build. After the person in front of him moved the table away, he thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how the other person came to the conclusion that he was "small".

The corridor was in a mess, with all the classes busy moving tables and chairs. Shen Anyan thought for a moment and slipped off to the next class to look for someone.

Gu Cijiang also stood in the hallway, his desk and chair in front of him. The corridor was incredibly crowded, and everyone's faces were more or less irritated. Gu Cijiang, however, showed no signs of impatience, quietly moving forward with the flow of people. Occasionally, a classmate would pass by and say hello, and he would politely nod in return, but otherwise, there was no further interaction.

Shen Anyan walked up to the other person.

Gu Cijiang was not paying attention when the chair in front of the table was pulled away. He looked up and saw a familiar face.

It was the classmate who took the cell phone from him yesterday and unexpectedly took his chair again today.

Gu Cijiang: "Classmate, this seems to be mine..."

Shen Anyan nodded confidently: "I know, I'll hold it for you, okay?"

It was the first time that Gu Cijiang saw someone helping someone while pretending to be a robber, so he had to agree even if he didn't want to.

Shen Anyan pushed the chair and walked forward with the other person side by side with the crowd.

There was a lot of noise around her, so she moved closer to the other person and asked, "Do you still remember me?"

Gu Cijiang said: "Remember, the classmates who came to our class for evening study yesterday."

Shen Anyan said “hmm”.

Gu Cijiang waited and waited, but found that the other party was silent after asking this question. Since they were still some distance away from the designated storage area of ​​the school, Gu Cijiang had no choice but to take the initiative to bring up the topic.

The first thing they did was naturally exchange names. After Shen Anyan said his own name, Gu Cijiang was about to introduce himself when he heard the other party add: "I know your name, Gu Cijiang, right?"

Gu Cijiang asked casually: "Do you know me?"

Shen Anyan said "hmm" again.

Seeing that the other party was silent again, Gu Cijiang sighed resignedly and then asked: "Have we met before? I don't seem to have any impression."

If he had met such an outstanding person in the past, he would definitely not forget him easily.

This question is a bit difficult to answer. You can't just say that I am your future girlfriend, right?

Shen Anyan thought about it and suddenly had a mischievous thought.

"Of course you have no impression..."

She moved closer to the other person again.

Gu Cijiang's body suddenly stiffened.

Too close.

The crowded crowd around seemed to disappear in an instant, and the noise seemed to fade away. Gu Cijiang could only hear the other party's shallow breathing.

————

It’s very close indeed.

Shen Anyan lowered his eyes.

She smelled a familiar scent, the scent of irises.

Lightness and elegance were Gu Cijiang's unique aura. After they confirmed their relationship, whenever she felt down, she loved to hug him and immerse herself in the dreamy purple fragrance of the flowers.

Shen Anyan smiled softly.

"Because I like you."

"I've had a crush on you for a long time, classmate Gu."
