When the last clue card was found, a corpse model was hanging in the air, accompanied by a shrill scream.
Su Zhimeng is much better than before, but there are still a few small tears in her eyes.
Bai Ye subconsciously took out a piece of paper from his clothes and gently wiped her face.
He wiped very carefully, and Su Zhimeng stared blankly at Bai Ye, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes.
Thank you, junior!
She couldn't help but recall the scene of her first meeting with her junior.
...
At that time, Bai Ye was still very young and inexperienced. When talking to people, he would always keep his head down and dare not make eye contact with the opposite sex.
Bai Ye sat on the lawn by the river, lost in thought, his eyes vacant.
Su Zhimeng happened to pass by there and stood there for a long time.
At that time, Bai Ye had only been Yao Yuyan's boyfriend for a short time and knew of Gu Yanzhi's existence. He was also in the early stages of developing a crush on her.
He was somewhat looking forward to the development of this relationship, but at the same time, he felt a deep sense of inferiority.
Looking at the riverbank, the water surface was completely still.
A woman of unparalleled beauty appeared before him. Her gentle smile was like a starry night sky, bringing him peace and warmth.
It was midday, and the sun seemed to be standing behind him, its dazzling light making it hard for him to open his eyes.
He was slightly dazed; he seemed to see angels, truly radiant angels.
The angel's face was full of worry: "Um... life is only once, like a candle, burning for as long as time goes by, each breath being its light. Please don't give up."
Bai Ye was completely stunned.
In the first scene of his encounter with the angel, he was mistaken for a hopeless young man who was contemplating suicide by jumping into the river.
Bai Ye didn't know what to say at the time.
"I...I'm not thinking of doing anything rash!"
The angel looked puzzled and somewhat uneasy: "But there's no light in your eyes!"
Bai Ye suddenly raised his head, wanting to prove his point: "I'm not lying to you, really."
When Bai Ye met the angel's eyes, which were as bright as the stars, his gaze was completely captivated.
So...so beautiful!
Bai Ye blushed and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at her anymore.
His heart felt like it was on fire. The other person was such a beautiful girl, which instantly triggered his fear of the opposite sex, leaving him speechless and nervous, and he wanted to escape the awkward situation.
Bai Ye scratched his head awkwardly: "I was just here to enjoy the scenery."
Seeing his insistence, Su Zhimeng realized that she had misunderstood.
Her face flushed slightly, embarrassed by her own arbitrary opinion.
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
"No...it's nothing!"
Both of them lowered their heads and then fell silent.
An awkward atmosphere enveloped the two of them.
Su Zhimeng was a little embarrassed to speak: "Um..."
Bai Ye looked up in confusion, and accidentally met Su Zhimeng's gaze again. Their eyes met, and he quickly looked away.
Life will always have its ups and downs, don't let them affect your mood. Being happy is the most important thing!
At this moment, Bai Ye did not look away, but met those concerned eyes.
The concern in the girl's eyes sent a shiver down his spine.
That was also the first time he had felt warmth in a place far from home.
So... so there are people who care about me after all?
They were clearly complete strangers.
The loneliness and isolation that I felt upon arriving at the new campus seemed to be alleviated by the girl's smile.
"Thanks!"
Seeing that Bai Ye had taken it to heart, Su Zhimeng smiled gently, then glanced at the time and frowned slightly.
She had another document to submit urgently.
He then waved goodbye, saying, "You're welcome. I'll be going now. Remember to go home early too."
"goodbye!"
Bai Ye waved goodbye, and the girl gradually walked away.
He turned around abruptly, but to his surprise, the girl also turned around, her eyes filled with worry.
It seemed that she was still worried that Bai Ye might do something foolish.
Under Bai Ye's dumbfounded gaze, the girl ran back to Bai Ye's side.
When he got closer, he took out a candy from his bag.
The girl's smile was radiant, and angel wings appeared behind her: "There's no such thing as an insurmountable day, only an insurmountable mood. Eat a candy, and your bad mood will be replaced by sweetness!"
The small hand extended towards him left Bai Ye at a loss for words.
It took him a while to realize what was happening before he took the candy from the girl's hand.
"Thanks!"
This was the second time he had thanked her, both times because of the girl's kindness.
By the time he came to his senses, the girl was already far away.
Bai Ye stared blankly at the candy in her hand.
A yellow candied tangerine peel.
He instinctively tore open the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth.
He held it in his mouth and savored it slowly. It was sweet but not cloying, a familiar taste. He remembered that his mother used to buy this kind of candy for him often.
As Bai Ye walked up the steps leading to the riverbank, his gaze couldn't help but drift towards the end of the road.
The figure of that angelic girl is no longer there.
Bai Ye suddenly felt a pang of regret.
He didn't know the girl's name yet.
But he was still himself, lacking even the courage to ask a girl her name, let alone anything else.
Bai Ye was just disappointed; after all, he really wanted to get to know such a gentle girl.
This doesn't mean Bai Ye is interested in her; his heart already belongs to someone else. Before the ending is certain and before regrets arrive, he doesn't want to think about these things.
A message from Yao Yuyan came through on Bai Ye's phone, and he was overjoyed. He opened it to check.
They then left.
Ten minutes later, a girl jogged to the spot where Bai Ye had stood before, along the walkway on the shore.
The girl was breathing rapidly, clearly exhausted from running all that way.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the place was empty.
After submitting the documents, she was still a little worried, so she rushed here as quickly as possible.
When she first saw the boy's expressionless face and the deathly silence in his heart, she was really worried about him.
Although the boy tried his best to explain, he couldn't hide the desolation in his eyes.
So she wanted to check on the boy's situation, and if he was still there, she would go and comfort him again.
The boy was gone, and Su Zhimeng had no intention of staying there any longer.
She secretly hoped that the boy would not be affected by negative emotions and would face life with optimism.
Life will always have rainy days, but as long as you keep sunshine in your heart and remain positive and optimistic, every day will still be colorful.
...
(This scene depicts Su and the protagonist's first meeting. At that time, Bai Ye was in the early stages of falling in love with Yao, but due to his inferiority complex, he was too afraid to approach her, and thus often sighed with regret.)
