The night before the holiday, Jiang Nian made a perfect study plan.
Preview textbook knowledge, learn calligraphy, read extracurricular books, learn a new language, etc.
The schedule is very full, and only the first and last days of the holiday are entertainment time arranged by Jiang Nian, where he can get together with friends.
When the phone rang, Jiang Nian saw that it was a call from Chiba Hideji.
Maybe there will be a lot of complaints again.
"Jiang Nian, I only have one day off during the holiday, and that's tomorrow." Chiba Hideji's voice was full of indignation and helplessness.
"My mom has reduced my interest courses this year. I'm mostly just tutoring in math, science, and English. It's driving me crazy. I don't like it at all, but I have to study every day..."
It was pretty much the same as Jiang Nian's guess. Chiba Hideji was wandering between pain and more pain, with no choice.
"Xiu Er, you've worked hard. Keep it up." Jiang Nian was not surprised by this kind of thing.
After all, Chiba Hideji spends his meaningful holidays every year in pain and wailing, and this time is no exception.
"My mother knew that I was going to play with you tomorrow, so she readily agreed to my request. But it's only this time," Chiba Hideji said. "So you must tell me tomorrow how you've been doing over the past three years."
Jiang Nian was somewhat moved by the serious Chiba Xiuer: "Okay, I'll bring a notebook full of secrets, and we can share it with each other."
Chiba Hideji was instantly excited after hearing this: "It's a deal. I'll go tell Yu Zi now."
Half an hour later, Jiang Nian received a message from Sakuragi Yuzi. After discussion, they decided to meet at Rikkai University at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
Jiang Nian wanted to let Sakuragi Yuzi and Chiba Hideji take a walk around Rikkai University, just to make up for the regrets of the past three years!
The next morning, Jiang Nian brought some homemade fruit salad, hot water, his grandmother's newly bought Polaroid camera, and enough photo paper.
Jiang Nian was standing at the school gate waiting, feeling a little nervous and excited.
Seeing Chiba Xiuji and Sakuragi Yuzi in the distance, he shouted excitedly: "Xiuji, Yuzi, here, I'm here."
He was very lively, completely different from his usual cold and world-weary self. When he was excited, he even waved his hands and jumped up.
Chiba Hideji and Sakuragi Yuzi quickly ran towards Jiang Nian after hearing his voice. The smiles on their faces were enough to melt the ice and snow, and their silver bell-like laughter filled the quaint school with vitality.
The three of them hugged each other the moment they met, spinning around involuntarily.
After the three of them were exhausted, Jiang Nian took them to visit Lihai University.
Unlike the gorgeousness and nobility of Rikkai University and Hyotei University, Rikkai University tends to be more solemn and ancient, and the overall feeling is full of history.
In the classroom, Jiang Nian used a Polaroid camera to take a selfie of the three of them sitting in a row.
When the three photos showed the portraits, Jiang Nian gently wrote on the back: Junior high school graduation photo
Sakuragi Yuzi and Chiba Shuji felt a little sad holding the photos, but they couldn't express it in words.
Jiang Nian excitedly admired his masterpiece: "This is what I wanted most. Finally, my dream has come true!"
"Okay, sister will treat you to grilled fish." Chiba Xiuji hooked his arm around Jiang Nian's neck, just like before.
"I'll treat you to lunch. Since Xiu Erjun is so generous, can you treat us to some juice?" Jiang Nian said with a smile, "The grilled fish shop over at the mall also sells it. It tastes very good."
After the trip to the Rikkai campus, the three of them walked slowly towards the mall, telling each other about their recent interesting experiences.
Jiang Nian witnessed many confessions throughout his third grade, on rooftops, stairs, classrooms, stadiums, etc.
All the girls seemed to be drunk in the wine of love, and only I was sober. I didn't expect that Chiba Hideji and Sakuragi Yuzi could not escape the curse of love.
"Actually, I wanted to wait until school started to confess, but I didn't expect him to give me the second button on his school uniform."
When Sakuragi Yuzi said this, his face turned slightly red, as if he was immersed in very beautiful memories.
Jiang Nian: "..."
"I'm so happy, so happy. I really want to be in love!" Chiba Shuji was very envious. "It's really embarrassing that I haven't been in a relationship yet. It's all because of the courses my mother arranged for me."
Qianye Xiuer paused: "Jiang Nian, are you in a relationship?"
"There's no need to tease me like that," Jiang Nian thought, and replied, "No."
"Do you have someone you like?" Chiba Hideji continued gossiping.
"No."
"Does anyone like you?" Chiba Hideji asked with certainty.
Jiang Nian thought for a moment: "No."
After hearing this, Chiba Hideji showed an expression of "as expected", as if he knew some important secret.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Sakuragi Yuzi was amused and covered his mouth with his hands and chuckled.
Jiang Nian felt that Chiba Hideji's expression when he looked at him was a little strange, and he heard these words when he was about to ask.
"As expected, if you study hard, you will lack the ability to fall in love."
After hearing this, Sakuragi Yuzi laughed so hard that she shook with laughter.
Jiang Nian said speechlessly: "Actually, the two are not related. The most important thing is that I don't want to fall in love just for the sake of falling in love."
When they arrived at the grilled fish restaurant, Jiang Nian ordered a large glass of orange juice in retaliation, while Chiba Hideji and Sakuragi Yuzi ordered small cups of coffee.
Chiba Hideji was well aware of Jiang Nian's revenge, but it didn't matter. He didn't lack the money.
The three of them sat down at a window seat, quickly placed their orders, and waited for their food to be served.
Jiang Nian sat opposite Chiba Hideji and Sakuragi Yuzi, and felt that the people at the next table looked familiar.
When the two stood up and were about to leave, Jiang Nian was sure that he was not mistaken. It was Chie Nakayama and Kouta Yamado.
I didn't expect that Yamato Kota and Nakayama Chie were so considerate to each other in their daily interactions. They pulled chairs, handed out tissues, and helped carry bags. They had almost no Japanese machismo.
Jiang Nian saw Yamado Kouta nod guiltily when he saw him, then lowered his head, and then Nakayama Chie stood up and walked over.
"Oqi, what a coincidence." Nakayama Chie smiled, "We've already finished eating and are leaving. What a shame."
"It's a pity that our dishes haven't been served yet." Jiang Nian smiled back and sighed sincerely, "But you two have such a good relationship."
Nakayama Chie glanced at Yamado Kota behind her, gestured with her fist to Jiang Nian, and looked at Jiang Nian with deep meaning in her eyes.
Jiang Nian responded with an expression that said "I understand again".
After the two left, Chiba Hideji gossiped and asked, "Are they a couple? This is a sign of a boy showing respect to his girlfriend!"
"We are a couple and we respect each other." Jiang Nian said with a strange smile.
Chiba Hideji and Sakuragi Yuzi were very envious of this.
Jiang Nian was a little conflicted about whether he should warn the two girls with starry eyes. He wondered if they knew the truth that "don't take on a job if you don't have the skills."
After leaving the grilled fish restaurant, Chie Nakayama sent a message to someone, "Come to the grilled fish restaurant in the mall quickly."
