"...Who are you?" Yu Sheng looked a little confused. "I'm sorry, I'm not very good at remembering faces. I've made a lot of blunders before."
"Squad leader, I'm Pei Hengyun," Pei Hengyun said with a smile.
Pei Hengyun saw Cen Yu holding a steamed bun in his hand. "I specially bought you a pancake, but it seems you don't need it?" He seemed thoughtful. "Did Jiang Tuan buy you the steamed bun?"
“Yes.” Cen Yu said, glancing at the pancake in Pei Hengyun’s hand, and decided that he could eat another one.
He casually picked up the pancake as well and took a bite in front of Pei Hengjun.
Then Cen Yu saw that Pei Hengyun's expression immediately brightened up a lot. He stepped aside to let Yu Sheng in, and then asked Pei Hengyun, who was walking behind Yu Sheng, "What time did you get up this morning?"
Cen Yu's sleep quality is actually average, so he should know that Pei Hengyun would be awake if he were to wake up.
Pei Hengyun thought for a moment, "8 o'clock?"
He told Cen Yu, "It might be around 7 o'clock."
"I didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly."
Cen Yu and Pei Hengyun have always slept in separate rooms because Cen Yu's sleep quality is very poor in this world.
In addition, he often went home late at night to do live streams, and his biological clock was completely different from that of Pei Hengyun, who was an art teacher. So after discussing it, the two decided to sleep in separate rooms.
Yu Sheng walked ahead, and perhaps because he realized that Pei Hengyun was his old classmate, he couldn't help but say a few more words—
"I remember you were the sports class representative back then, I never imagined you'd be an art teacher now."
He was shy and didn't talk much, but he couldn't help but say a few more words because he was thinking about how long Pei Hengjun hadn't come back.
His memories of Pei Hengyun were faint; he only remembered that Pei Hengyun often sat by the window and was He Yongning's deskmate.
He was sitting in front of him, next to Jiang Tuan.
The four of them sat at desks in front of and behind each other.
He Yongning had better grades than him, and Jiang Tuan and Pei Hengyun were also doing well, so in the end they all left this place to study elsewhere.
"What schools did you apply to later?" Yu Sheng asked again.
Pei Hengyun gave the name of a school, and Yu Sheng had a look of sudden realization. "Oh, it's this one."
“Cen Yu and I were classmates in college.” Pei Hengyun seemed to think that Cen Yu was not joining the conversation and was worried that he would feel awkward, so he forced him to join the conversation as well.
As Pei Hengyun narrated this, some images appeared in Cen Yu's mind.
It was a memory of how he and Pei Hengyun met in a general education class and gradually became friends.
No wonder he was able to date Pei Hengyun—
Being near the water tower gives you an advantage.
He made an irresponsible comment in his mind, and when he saw Yu Sheng looking at him, he politely asked if he was also a teacher.
“Me?” Cen Yu pointed to himself. “I’m unemployed.”
Yu Sheng seemed surprised by Cen Yu's answer, his expression momentarily stunned, but the next second he saw Cen Yu laugh, "Just kidding."
For some reason, Cen Yu's smiling face gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"I'm a live streamer."
Cen Yu gestured as if holding up a phone, "Just holding the phone to record a video."
Yu Sheng snapped out of his daze and immediately nodded in agreement, "Some people in the village have been doing live streaming lately to sell agricultural products."
As the three of them talked, they arrived at Jiang Tuan's living room.
Yu Sheng called out Jiang Tuan's name directly. Perhaps because he was a teacher, he had a strong voice. Even He Yongning on the second floor heard his voice and came to the living room on the first floor.
After meeting, the old classmates exchanged pleasantries for a while.
Then Yu Shengcai said, "They said we'll have lunch first, and then go to the place where we used to have classes in the afternoon."
Cen Yu listened for a while and realized that Yu Sheng seemed to have already spoken to the gatekeeper. In addition, since these people were all from the village, the school gatekeeper knew that they were planning to come back to reminisce about their old school life, so he made an exception for them.
Cen Yu bit into a pancake, knowing that the main event of the day would be in the evening.
That is, tonight, that rich second-generation classmate suddenly died at home.
The class reunion is said to last a week, but that's only because many of the classmates haven't been back to their hometowns for years and want to take this opportunity to stay there for a while.
But it's not mandatory; you can leave if you need to.
And this rich kid is someone who should leave tomorrow morning.
The other party wasn't even from their village.
He came to attend the village high school because his wealthy family wanted to toughen him up, so they arranged for him to attend the village high school in his hometown.
I came back to attend the reunion because I missed my high school days, so I came back to this village with everyone.
Cen Yu remembered that in this part of the story, he would never go to the class reunion at noon, since he didn't know anyone there.
He was biting into his pancake, about to sneak upstairs for a nap, when he suddenly noticed Yu Sheng turning around and looking at him—
"Is Cen Yu coming too?"
"……ah?"
"Aren't you Pei Hengyun's friend?" Yu Sheng smiled. "It's rare for you to come to the village, and we all get along well, so you certainly won't mind."
Jiang Tuan frowned upon hearing this. After thinking for a moment, he said to Sheng, "Why don't we ask for other people's opinions first?"
Pei Hengyun looked at Cen Yu and asked, "Xiao Yu, do you want to go?"
Cen Yu pondered for a moment. He hadn't forgotten that he had a hidden mission: to find the secret hidden in the novel before the script ended... He glanced at the four eyes looking at him, accompanying Pei Hengyun's words.
Everyone's gaze reflects their own thoughts; one could say they each have their own agenda.
He could tell that He Yongning was against it, and Jiang Tuan didn't want him to go to the class reunion either.
Yu Sheng naturally hoped he would go, as for Pei Hengyun...
Cen Yu carefully observed Pei Hengyun's expression, but could not discern the other's true thoughts from his eyes.
Cen Yu took another bite of the pancake.
He's just inherently rebellious. If Jiang Tuan and He Yongning both wanted him to go, he might not have gone, but seeing that neither of them wanted him to attend the class reunion—
"Okay," he said to Sheng, swallowing the pancake in his mouth.
"Who else is there besides you?"
"I also invited Teacher Yan, who was our former homeroom teacher and Chinese teacher."
