During the rest of the walk, Lu Zichu kept trying to find out the identity of the man, but Yu Qirong himself didn't know, let alone tell Lu Zichu.
Lu Zichu glared: "You don't even know who he is, but you're wearing his clothes?"
Yu Qirong glanced at him with a look that said "what are you making a fuss about?" Seeing Yu Qirong's unhappy expression, Lu Zichu had no choice but to suppress his unhappiness and stopped asking questions.
Nothing much happened during the subsequent relaxation, except that at the end, they ran into the senior's sightseeing group. Yu Lin's eyes were bright, and he excitedly told Yu Qirong that he wanted to apply to A University.
Yu Qirong hummed and rubbed the cufflinks in his hand, searching for three familiar figures in the crowd.
The action in front of Lu Zichu was intentional. He originally wanted to randomly select one to verify his idea, but he didn't expect to select a hidden model.
This made Yu Qirong feel like opening a blind box.
When his sight met the familiar figure, Yu Qirong held the cufflinks in his hand, stared at Su Tang quietly for a while, then relaxed his grip and smiled slightly, "As expected."
After Su Tang saw Yu Qirong smiling at him, he hesitated for a moment, but still walked over here.
Yu Lin didn't notice Yu Qirong's perfunctory attitude. He was talking about how wonderful the campus of A University was when he was suddenly startled by Su Tang coming from behind. He then remembered that Yu Qirong "didn't love him anymore" and thought Su Tang was here to cause trouble. He was trying to think of a way to get rid of him, but was stopped by Yu Qirong's eyes.
Yu Lin looked at Su Tang on his left, then at Yu Qirong on his right. His poor brain couldn't process the information and he could only come up with a vague guess - have their old love rekindled?
"Do you need me to step aside..." he said cautiously.
Yu Qirong looked at Su Tang and said, "Go play somewhere else."
Yu Lin was happy and at ease: "Okay."
He didn't want to get involved in this at all. He could tell the water was very deep and he was afraid of drowning.
After all the strangers had left, Su Tang spoke up, "What I said last time still counts."
"?" Yu Qirong raised her eyebrows, still thinking about the function and origin of the cufflinks, and didn't pay any attention to what Su Tang said.
Seeing Yu Qirong playing dumb, Su Tang clenched his fists under his sleeves, his eyes, which were always calm and peaceful, showed some unwillingness. He closed his eyes and continued to explain: "It's just like what I said before, whether it's Lu Zichu or the person who put clothes on you today, I can tolerate it and live in peace with them... But can you stop hiding from me like before?"
Yu Qirong was stunned, thinking of the shocking words Su Tang said in the infirmary. She didn't expect Su Tang to have such an idea.
He calmed himself down and decided to solve an easy problem first: "I'm not hiding from you."
"But you are clearly deliberately staying away from me." There was some pain in Su Tang's eyes, which made Yu Qirong feel inexplicably guilty.
"What I said before... had a reason." Yu Qirong pinched his brows, not knowing how to explain to Su Tang. This matter was too strange, even he himself didn't understand it clearly, let alone explain it to others.
Seeing Yu Qirong's embarrassment, Su Tang didn't intend to let him continue like this, and comforted him instead: "If you don't want to tell me, you don't have to. But you and Lu Zichu..."
In the end, he couldn't finish his words. The other three people present had eyes and saw clearly what happened. It was obvious that Yu Qirong was very intimate with Lu Zichu, much more intimate with him than the three of them who had been neglected during this period.
Su Tang had originally been feeling lucky and humbly proud of himself for having won Yu Qirong's favor because he and Tang Xingfei had somewhat similar temperaments. However, he did not expect that not long after, he was ignored for the same reason.
It was very difficult for him to accept such ups and downs, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that he had almost no advantages, so he had to force himself to be generous.
Yu Qirong could clearly see the loneliness and sadness in Su Tang's eyes, but he really couldn't make any promises to these three people easily before finding out the truth of everything.
"...I'm sorry." Yu Qirong hesitated and saw Su Tang's obviously wrong expression. He quickly added: "I don't mean to reject you, but I can't give you an answer right now."
He thought of what the strange man had told him, to wait for another two weeks, so he also painted the same pie for Su Tang: "I still need some time, can you wait for me for another two weeks?"
Yu Qirong asked with an extremely uncertain tone, he himself didn't quite believe what would happen at this point in time.
But Su Tang looked better, as if he had received some new promise, and even his eyes brightened a little, "If it's only two weeks, of course I can... I'll wait for your answer."
Yu Qirong grabbed the coat that was draped over his body. With the cufflinks, he almost didn't feel the urge to cough at all, nor did he feel any discomfort.
This sudden relief made him feel much better, so he rarely showed a sincere smile. He murmured in a low voice: "I also hope that I can get the answer I want by then."
There should be a clear answer to these strangenesses and the inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Yu Qirong said the same thing again when he met the Tang brothers by chance on his way to school the next day.
It wasn't necessarily an accidental encounter. After all, the two of them were blocking Yu Qirong's way to school. They had a strong aura and were very impressive. If Yu Qirong hadn't looked calm and composed, and even greeted them with a smile, passers-by would have called the police for the beautiful and fragile Yu Qirong.
So everyone is looking forward to that illusory two weeks later.
It’s not too hard to endure. After all, the college entrance examination is approaching. Frequent exams and huge pressure to continue studying can make people temporarily forget some so-called answers.
I don’t know if it’s the same for others, but when Yu Qirong realized that there were only three days left until “two weeks later”, he was sitting in the examination room for the college entrance examination. He had just finished writing the last word of his Chinese composition and suddenly remembered it when he was putting the pen cap back on.
Ah, it's almost here.
Yu Qirong had all those knowledge points firmly memorized in his mind, and it was difficult for him to forget them. Therefore, taking an exam was just a matter of reproducing the knowledge in his mind on the test paper, which was not too difficult.
As soon as the two-day exams were over, Yu Qirong suddenly felt that his high school life was like a dream.
Although he had indeed experienced it and had corresponding memories when he recalled it carefully, there were always some strange fragments of life that flashed by, which were very different from his usual high school life and even a little bloody. But sometimes he would wonder, maybe those were real?
After the exam, everyone felt a lot more relaxed. No matter how well they did, it was over after all, so someone suggested going out for dinner.
Yu Qirong didn't have any ideas. He just sat there in a daze, twirling his pen, simply listening to their discussion without thinking too much.
"Where are we going to go? We've already finished our exams, so we have to choose something exciting, right?"
"Bar? Internet cafe overnight?"
"What are you talking about? I heard that some students will choose to rent a remote ghost castle after the college entrance examination and live there at night. That's more interesting."
"That's nonsense. There is no such thing as a ghost castle here. The styles are different. If you say it's a villa, that's more reliable."
"Then a villa would be fine too."
…
In short, by the time Yu Qirong reacted, everyone had already chosen a place to go and had even started calling people to join and raising money to rent a villa.
Yu Lin was shocked. He asked hesitantly, "Ah, are you really going to stay here all night?"
Xia Sheng, who was in charge of fundraising, chuckled, "Are you scared?"
As soon as he heard this, Yu Qirong knew that Yu Lin was going to pay money, and he couldn't stand the provocation at all.
As expected, Yu Lin took out the agreed amount of money from his pocket, slapped it on Xia Sheng's hand, and said in a heroic tone, "Who's afraid? Then I have to go!"
Xia Sheng had a triumphant expression on his face and had Yu Lin under his control.
Since Yu Lin had already compromised, Xia Sheng set his sights on Yu Qirong, "What do you mean, don't you want to accompany your friend who is afraid of ghosts?"
Yu Lin immediately stood up and retorted to Xia Sheng: "Who is afraid of ghosts? Who is afraid of ghosts?"
He sounded confident, but he used Yu Qirong's body to block his voice and pulled Yu Qirong's sleeve slightly, looking pitiful.
Yu Qirong sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to take out the money and give it to Xia Sheng: "I'll join in, too."
In fact, the other three people had been paying attention to what was happening here. The moment they saw Yu Qirong giving out the money, they withdrew their gazes and were ready to participate in this last group activity.
No matter what result Yu Qirong gives, this may be their last intersection with Yu Qirong.
After the college entrance examination, it is more likely that they will fly to different cities to study and never see each other again. In order to avoid this tragedy, none of them will give up until Yu Qirong agrees to give the final answer.
When almost everyone had arrived, the teacher walked into the classroom and took the final roll call.
The atmosphere in the class instantly changed from enthusiastic and exciting to silent, with even a few sobs in the air.
Yu Qirong raised her head and looked at her old class teacher who also had tears in his eyes. She felt inexplicably moved in her heart and as if she was touched.
But this feeling was instantly dispelled by the tingling pain in his wrist, as if reminding him of something.
Yu Lin's emotions were particularly developed. Before other girls could do anything, he would burst into tears, burying his head in his arms and shaking with sobs.
After being reminded, Yu Qirong returned to his normal mood. He packed his things in an orderly manner. During this time, his pen was pressed down by Yu Lin, and he asked Yu Lin to lift his arm so that he could pull it out.
Yu Lin's eyes were red. "You are a person who doesn't understand emotions at all."
His words were not serious, he was just making an impromptu remark based on the situation, but Yu Qirong paused while packing her things.
Yu Lin noticed his pause and immediately wondered if he had said something wrong. He hurriedly tried to make amends, but saw Yu Qirong suddenly smile, with wine-red eyes half-closed, revealing some cunning, "Who said I don't understand? I'm going to start writing a love letter tonight."
Hearing the gossip, Yu Lin simply wiped away her tears, not caring to cry anymore, and came up to him and asked, "To whom, to whom?"
Although he didn't know the agreement between Yu Qirong and those people, Yu Lin could clearly feel that Yu Qirong was often wavering between them, so much so that he unconsciously paid special attention to the answer to this question.
Yu Qirong ignored his curiosity, packed her bag, and left a mysterious message "keep it secret for now" before leaving.
