The crisp morning sunlight streamed into the corridor.
Chu Chu, wearing her experimental school uniform, stood there.
Ning Jinyu was right across from her.
Just as Chu Chu was about to speak, a sound echoed in her ears—
"Come to Ayu, try this flavor, it's delicious."
"Thank you, senior."
"You scoop a spoonful of vanilla, then scoop a spoonful of chocolate into my bowl, and they blend together—delicious!"
"Okay, senior."
She was stunned.
Ning Jinyu was indeed right across from her.
But not standing, but sitting.
At the edge of the flower bed.
Ning Jinyu, Lu Yibei, and Ji Qingqian sat in a line.
Beside them were several boxes of melting ice cream, all with the lids open, as the three of them were figuring out how to eat them together.
Chu Chu:…
Is that correct?

Lu Yibei turned around and noticed, then whispered a reminder: "Chu Chu is here."
Ning Jinyu exclaimed "Ah!" He stood up and looked at Chu Chu.
The girl who occupied most of his high school years reappeared in front of him.
Ning Jinyu stared at Chu Chu.
Chu Chu was also watching Ning Jinyu.

Looking at that familiar face, Chu Chu suddenly realized that he hadn't changed at all.
She seems to have lost some weight, and her hair is still curly; the thick, natural curls make her face look even smaller.
Chu Chu felt like crying.
Her eyes stung again and reddened once more, followed by a thick, sticky feeling in her throat.
I wanted to say something, but all I heard in response was the pounding of my heart.
Chu Chu opened her mouth.
She stared intently at the boy in front of her.
Then, I watched helplessly as two streams of blood flowed from the boy's nostrils.
Chu Chu:…
—Goodbye with tears in my eyes×
— blushing ×
—With a red nose√
Chu Chu:…
"What's going on!?"
The young couple, feeling guilty, were stealthily preparing to "lubricate" the child.
