For elementary school students, summer vacation is always extremely short...

The same applies to college students.

Who in their right mind wants to go to school?

It was already the end of August when we celebrated Qixi Festival, and before we knew it, it was the first day of school.

At noon, even though it was already September, the weather was still very hot, with the sun hanging high in the sky and not a cloud in sight.

When Chen Lu returned to his rented room, he saw Liang Zhirou drawing. She looked so serious, just like a primary school student doing her homework.

He approached with curiosity, hugged the girl from behind, and couldn't resist being a little lewd.

Liang Zhirou turned to look at him with a reproachful yet gentle expression, then lowered her head to continue drawing intently.

Chen Lu was very pleased with himself. Sure enough, many permissions were unlocked once and then remained open. Now he could climb mountains whenever he wanted.

I need to keep working harder in the future.

He knew when to stop, so he put a straw in the fruit tea he was carrying and held it to the girl's lips.

"How does it feel to go to school with your bangs cut? Does it feel like the whole world has been transformed?" Chen Lu asked curiously.

Liang Zhirou pouted and slumped onto the table. "I've had my hair cut for days now, I'm used to it. But I've just realized that so many people in my class don't even know my name..."

"You've got a joke now, here's a candy for you."

"I'm not kidding, it's true."

Liang Zhirou obediently opened her mouth and put the candy in her mouth. She always felt that with Chen Lu feeding her all the time, she would never have to worry about low blood sugar again in her life.

He remembered it more clearly than she did.

I don't know if I really scared him at the time, but Miao Miao said that when Chen Lu first arrived at the hospital, he looked like he was completely exhausted...

Chen Lu was taken aback for a moment, then thought it made sense. He pinched the girl's cheek and asked with a smile, "Is reality very cruel?"

He recalled that when he first entered junior high school, he went home sick after two or three days of military training. After recovering for a few days, he returned to school, and his classmates thought he was a new student.

It was embarrassing and painful.

“I don’t care whether they know or not,” Liang Zhirou said softly. “But I don’t like them bothering me. When they added me on WeChat, I told them one by one that I have a boyfriend.”

"Isn't there a way to solve this once and for all?"

Chen Lu glanced at the message from the school leaders, who wanted him to give a speech at the end of the month, and said softly, "Maybe. By then, no girls should bother me, and no boys should bother you."

It's funny, when their studio was a bit short of funds at the beginning, the school's 100,000 yuan support fund never came through. Now that they've made money, the support fund came through immediately, without them even having to urge them. They even took the initiative to invite him to do promotional activities.

I don't even know what exactly they supported.

"Why are you drawing only eyes?" Chen Lu asked, staring at the computer screen. "Aren't you going to learn about human anatomy first?"

"Miaomiao said my body training is pretty good."

Liang Zhirou handed the fruit tea Chen Lu had given her back to Chen Lu's lips, "I remember you can draw?"

She has always kept the sketch that Chen Lu gave her.

"I know a little," Chen Lu said calmly.

How come you know a little bit about everything?

"Because I've learned a little bit of everything."

Chen Lu was both amused and exasperated; what a silly question.

"Shall we eat?" Liang Zhirou asked softly.

"Wait a minute, let me watch you draw for a while."

Chen Lu moved a chair from the dining table and sat down next to her, only then noticing a book next to the monitor.

"You've actually started reading The Three-Body Problem?" he asked, somewhat surprised.

I want to have more in common with you.

After Liang Zhirou finished speaking, she put down her paintbrush, turned around, and stared at him coldly. "Chen Lu, the one who faces the wall, I am your wall-breaker. I have seen through your plan."

"How did you guess?" Chen Lu glanced at his room with an extremely unnatural look in his eyes.

Liang Zhirou tilted her head to look at him, "Guessed what?"

Chen Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that although he didn't know why his acting skills had improved, a simpleton was still a simpleton, and he argued, "I'm just playing along with you."

She almost tricked me into using my ultimate skill with a single basic attack.

Liang Zhirou held Chen Lu's hand with her left hand and quietly painted. She now vaguely understood what Chen Lu meant.

I'm doing what I love, and my favorite person is right beside me.

When you relax, you can really feel how pleasant life is.

“Chen Lu, quickly tell me you love me, it’s part of the plan,” Liang Zhirou suddenly said.

"Don't learn so fast!!"

......

After dinner, the two lingered for a while before returning to their respective rooms. Liang Zhirou had a full schedule of classes that afternoon.

Chen Lu pressed the air conditioner remote control twice, and after finding that the air conditioner did not respond at all, he smirked triumphantly.

He then went to the wardrobe and pulled out a slightly thicker quilt.

He squinted at the sun outside and took a deep breath.

You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

As a seasoned master of boiling frogs, how can you not even endure this little bit of hardship?

After making up his mind, Chen Lu gritted his teeth and wrapped himself in a blanket in the sweltering summer heat.

Ten minutes later, drenched in sweat, he knocked on the door of the room.

Liang Zhirou was probably still awake and arrived quickly.

"How could you...?"

She was halfway through her sentence when she saw that Chen Lu was about to suffer from heatstroke. She was startled and quickly reached out to wipe his sweat.

"My room's air conditioner is broken," he said, looking distressed.

"I'm about to get heatstroke, let me sleep in your room."

As Liang Zhirou wiped his sweat, she nodded gently, "Okay."

Chen Lu blinked.

? ?

That simple?!

I still have a ton of lines to say, and you've already agreed?

Without a second's hesitation, he dashed back to his room and grabbed his pillow.

"It feels so good to have air conditioning."

Just as Chen Lu lay down, he saw Liang Zhirou carrying a pillow and walking to the door.

Where are you going?

“I’ll sleep in your room,” the girl said blankly, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"......"

A few minutes later

Chen Lu lay on the sofa with the standing air conditioner blowing on him, looking like he was about to die.

He lost.

He lost to her simple-mindedness, to her pristine purity, and even felt that he had lost his conscience.

He was like a demon forced to be covered in mud in an evil world, his whole body burning with shame under the holy light of angels...

Chen Lu had a perfectly calculated plan, but he never expected that Liang Zhirou would break through all his schemes with her own strength.

"I deserve to die," he muttered to himself, filled with remorse.

After a long while, Chen Lu suddenly rolled over on the sofa like a salted fish.

"No, fortunes change, and I must win back!!"
