"Gurgle, gurgle..."

An Youhe was lying on the table reading a book when her stomach started rumbling.

Everyone in the classroom had gone to eat; even Ye Zhou had left.

Only she herself is still holding on.

She pursed her lips and used one hand to rub her belly, which had no excess fat.

"Little Belly, you have an iron will, so please stop yelling for now, okay? After the exam, I'll buy you some delicious instant noodles."

Hearing the girl's silly words, Ye Zhou smiled again.

He walked over and placed the jianbing guozi he was holding on the girl's table.

At this moment, the girl's stomach began to protest again.

"Looks like your little belly isn't behaving very well?"

Everything he said was heard.

Okay, how shameful!

An Youhe looked at the pancakes in front of her, which smelled so tempting it was almost sinful.

She couldn't resist licking her pink lips.

"Plop!—"

The sound of swallowing saliva.

Ye Zhou nudged him and said in a seductive voice:

"Eat up, sweetie."

An Youhe pursed her pink lips.

Ye Zhou knew that she had a pair of beautiful eyes that seemed to speak volumes, like those of a deer.

However, his eyes were covered by his long hair.

Her fair complexion and pink lips stood out even more.

It makes you want to take a bite.

Her cheeks gradually flushed red under his gaze.

It's absolutely gorgeous.

Ye Zhou stared at those lips, lost in thought.

Her pink lips opened and closed.

Even if Ye Zhou didn't listen, he would know what she was going to say.

"I'll keep an eye on you until you finish eating."

Ye Zhou straddled the back of the chair, his hands obediently holding onto the back as he watched the girl eat.

An Youhe blushed and began eating her jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe), while her other hand continued to flip through the pages of a book.

Her book is incomparable to anyone else's because it looks too old.

The paper had turned yellow and the edges were curled up beyond recognition.

It looks like it's been read a lot; the book is practically worn out.

I guess I was too hungry, and the jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) smelled too good.

An Youhe finished the entire jianbing guozi and licked her lips with lingering satisfaction.

Ye Zhou finally couldn't resist and rubbed his soft head, which he had been thinking about for several days.

An Youhe whispered, "Thank you."

"Tsk, don't say thank you to me, I don't like those words."

Ye Zhou's previous life was filled with gratitude.

He's almost forgotten how to read those two characters.

The exam lasted all day, even in the evening.

I finished all the mock exams in one day.

After leaving the classroom, Ye Zhou walked down the corridor.

Originally, many people were discussing the exam content and exchanging which answers they chose for which questions.

But when their eyes fell on Ye Zhou passing by, they all shut their mouths.

Discussing exam questions in front of true academic geniuses is simply shameful.

Ye Zhou also disliked checking answers after exams.

...

"Ye Zhou!"

Jiang Jiayan called out to Ye Zhou.

Why did you walk so fast? Didn't you wait for me?

The bright girl smiled, carrying her schoolbag, radiating sunshine, youth, and vitality.

Ye Zhou looked at her, his eyes dimming. So many years have passed, and they can't just pass by like that.

The girl seemed to know nothing, as if she wasn't the one who had done something wrong.

"It was you who didn't wait for me."

Moreover, they left him far behind, repeatedly humiliating him and trampling his dignity into the ground.

They abandoned him in a strange city, turning his waiting into a joke.

Jiang Jiayan still had a smile on her face.

One hand wore an unassuming green Submariner watch.

On her other wrist was a bracelet.

"Ye Zhou, look, this is the bracelet you gave me! I love it so much, I've always been reluctant to wear it. Susan's is just exactly the same."

She held up her wrist for Ye Zhou to see.

Ye Zhou stood there, the afterglow of the sunset shining on his high, straight nose.

His face remained largely expressionless.

He reached out his hand to Jiang Jiayan's fair arm.

Jiang Jiayan was stunned for a moment.

And so, Ye Zhou's strong, warm hand grasped her wrist.

The moment their skin touched, Jiang Jiayan felt a strange sensation.

She wanted it to stay like this forever and didn't want to let go.

Then, he removed the bracelet from her wrist.

He held the bracelet in his large hand, looking at the inside of it in the afterglow of the setting sun.

It was smooth and bare.

Ye Zhou chuckled softly.

Jiang Jiayan's heart skipped a beat.

The bracelet was placed back into the girl's hand.

"So you knew nothing at all. You didn't care about anything I gave you, so why buy new things? Just return them."

After finishing speaking, Ye Zhou turned around decisively.

Jiang Jiayan didn't realize that even her own lips were trembling...

What character?

Did Ye Zhou also engrave words inside the bracelet?

How come she never knew?

The bracelet with the inscription is still on Susan's wrist.

He gazed at Ye Zhou's figure.

Jiang Jiayan had lost count of how many times she had seen Ye Zhou's figure.

Her pride and her dignity were all reduced to ashes.

Only now did she truly understand.

"So, bullying Ye Zhou and rejecting Ye Zhou was just my vanity at play."

"It's not that I dislike Ye Zhou, I just like that feeling of being high and mighty."

"It was all a lie. In the end, all I wanted was Ye Zhou's touch, for him to always be by my side, holding me, and telling me he loved me."
