What exactly happened in Chapter 34?
Zhou Yanchuan looked at the tightly closed door in front of him and curled his lips into a smile. "How indifferent."
He had a slight smirk, but there was no sign of happiness on his face.
Zhou Yanchuan could sense that something was wrong with the person's emotions, so even though his mind was a mess, he kept thinking about their conversation that day.
Separated by a wall, the girl standing behind the door also had her head bowed low.
Wen Jiu noticed that his lip was injured.
Su Shun said he was going home, I wonder if he got beaten by his father again. He must have felt very wronged when he came over, but she was so stingy with a single word of concern for him.
My heart feels like it's soaking in vinegar, both sour and bitter.
Wen Jiu stood behind the door for a long time before finally walking towards the center of the living room.
The lights in the corridor outside slowly dimmed.
She walked to the water dispenser, bent down, opened the cabinet door, and took out a cup.
While waiting for the water to heat up, Wen Jiu quietly stared at the small red water temperature light, lost in thought.
The sound of running water echoed in the room, then slowly faded away.
Wen Jiu, holding the glass of warm water, turned and walked towards the door.
She opened the door very gently, and the motion-activated lights didn't turn on. The only light in the hallway was the warm glow coming from the room.
Wen Jiu looked at the person who was still standing in the same place, her eyelashes fluttering slightly. She didn't say anything, but simply raised her hand and handed over the glass of water she was holding.
Zhou Yanchuan looked at the girl who had reappeared in front of him, then glanced down at the glass of water she had handed him.
The area near my heart suddenly went limp.

The weather cleared up the next day.
As soon as Wen Jiu sat down, Ning Yixue's voice came from behind her.
"Have you heard? Qiao Qingxue went to Zhou Yanchuan's house yesterday."
Wen Jiu paused as she put down her schoolbag.
"Where did you hear that? Is it true?" Zhou Qingyun asked immediately.
“A friend of mine said he saw them in the same car.”
"I thought he was just playing around this time, but it seems he's taken it seriously."
Upon hearing this, one girl sighed softly: "I wonder how many girls will be heartbroken."
“I’m so sad,” Ning Yixue said with a pained expression, looking at the quiet girl in the front row and putting her arm around her shoulder. “Xiao Jiu, please comfort me.”
Wen Jiu's back stiffened, and when she looked up, she met the girl's feigned aggrieved gaze, and for a moment she was at a loss for what to do.
Ning Yixue's intention was not to seek comfort; she just wanted to bring the girl into the conversation since she saw the girl was always alone.
But when I met those eyes that seemed to be filled with tears, I couldn't help but exclaim "Oh dear!"
"What's wrong?" she asked hurriedly.
Wen Jiu blinked and said slowly, "I just yawned."
"You scared me to death!" Ning Yixue breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were also—"
Wen Jiuxin raised her hand.
The girl suddenly stopped talking, as if she felt her idea was absurd, and her voice was tinged with laughter: "How could that be? Our Xiao Jiu is so well-behaved, she would never like a boy like Zhou Yanchuan who is wild at heart."
I don't know why, but although I felt relieved, I wasn't really happy.
She and Zhou Yanchuan really don't give off any sense of being associated with each other.
In a school, where even the slightest disturbance is known to everyone, the whole story of last night was known within a single morning self-study session.
A girl was crying in the hallway, and her friend stood beside her, comforting her: "It's okay, they'll definitely break up after a while."
"Waaah, it's different this time. We've brought them all home, so we'll definitely take it seriously."
...
In the restaurant, Zhou Yanchuan had just sat down when a head popped up beside him: "Brother, you've turned over a new leaf?"
He lifted his eyelids.
Su Shun's eyes gleamed with gossip: "I heard he brought his sister-in-law home last night?"
"who?"
"Still pretending," Chen Yu said with a resentful and jealous expression, "You've already brought her home, why are you still asking who?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanchuan realized what they were talking about and couldn't help but frown.
I spent the whole night thinking about why the little girl was angry, and then I forgot about it.
"Do you know what the school is saying about you right now?" Su Shun didn't notice that the person was distracted and was eager to share the gossip she had heard.
Zhou Yanchuan half-heartedly cooperated: "How was it passed on?"
"He's not wild anymore, he's had enough of playing the jungler game."
He had no expression, and seemed completely indifferent.
“You have no idea how many girls I saw crying today because of this,” Su Shun sighed. “The whole school was filled with the sound of heartbreak.”
As soon as Qiao Qingxue finished buying food, she saw the boy sitting by the window. Her best friend gently nudged her arm and said, "Qingxue."
Faced with her friends' teasing, Qiao Qingxue gave a somewhat bitter smile.
Right now, everyone in the school is saying how great their relationship is, but only she knows the truth.
"Aren't you going to go see him?" my friend suddenly asked.
"I," Qiao Qingxue wanted to say "we broke up," but she was dumped after only one day of dating. How embarrassing.
Just as she was wondering what to do, she suddenly heard a voice, "Sister-in-law!"
As soon as Su Shun saw the girl standing opposite him, he immediately stood up to offer her his seat, saying, "Come on, come on, you can sit here."
Qiao Qingxue was stunned by the boy who suddenly stood up and the way he addressed her.
She stared blankly at the person in front of the window, wondering if they hadn't told their friends yet.
At that moment, she suddenly realized that his apology wasn't just a verbal apology. It meant he would consider every aspect and try his best to make amends.
Knowing that breaking up with her after only one day would make the girl lose face, he didn't tell anyone around him.
Last night was the same. When we arrived at my doorstep, the driver took out several beautifully packaged gift bags from the trunk.
It was supposed to be an apology.
She couldn't help but wonder what it would be like if such a person were to passionately love someone.
As soon as the idea popped into her head, Qiao Qingxue laughed. How could that be? He was Zhou Yanchuan; only girls were crazy about him.

Ning Yixue bit her chopsticks and looked into the distance. "I have to say, these two are such a good match. Even just sitting together to eat feels like they're filming a campus idol drama."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Meng glared at her.
"What are you doing?" Ning Yixue was completely bewildered by her rather resentful gaze.
Wen Jiu looked at the girl beside her who had been taking care of her emotions, her eyes filled with tenderness, and she whispered, "It's okay."
Lin Meng didn't believe that nothing was wrong.
If the boy she has a crush on starts dating and sits across from her eating with his girlfriend, she could cry all the way to the school.
There's also Ning Yixue, who would come running over and chatter away at the slightest sound they heard.
Just then, the girl suddenly said, "I feel like I'm becoming a fan of their pairing. They're so evenly matched in looks."
Hearing this, Lin Meng slapped him across the face: "You're so annoying."
"What's wrong?" Ning Yixue said, sounding aggrieved. "It's really so cute together."
"Bumping into everything will only harm you."
As Wen Jiu watched the two people suddenly start fighting, the bitterness that had been weighing on her heart dissipated somewhat, and a faint smile appeared in her eyes.
Just as she was about to look away and continue eating, she suddenly seemed to realize something, shifted her gaze slightly to the side, and her breath caught in her throat.
