"I'm going out!" The girl with twin ponytails, wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag, quickly put on her canvas shoes and rushed out the door.
A concerned voice came from behind: "Shall I pick you up from school tonight?"
"Don't worry, brother. Jiajia will come back with me in the evening."
After shouting this, Tao Tao ran away without looking back, completely unaware that behind her, when Su Jin heard the word "Jia Jia", he showed a look as if he was facing a great enemy.
Time flies. It seems like Tao Tao was still in kindergarten one second, but in the blink of an eye, she has entered high school.
What is "coincidental" is that from kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, all the way to high school, Tao Tao and Feng Jiayan have always been in the same school, the same grade, and even the same class.
But for Tao Tao, it is undoubtedly a very happy thing to have a good friend who grew up together.
At first, going to school was a novelty for Tao Tao, but eventually, the day-to-day routine of school life inevitably made her feel bored. As her body grew, her appetite also grew. Three normal meals a day simply weren't enough to keep her full.
When the second class in the afternoon ended and the bell rang, Tao Tao lay down on the desk dejectedly.
55555……
So hungry...
At this moment, a scent of milk suddenly drifted into Tao Tao's nose, making her move her nose involuntarily, and her eyes lit up instantly.
She raised her head and saw Feng Jiayan holding his chin with one hand and pushing a piece of cheesecake in front of her: "Here."
"Jia Jia! You're so great!" Tao Tao's eyes lit up instantly. She unceremoniously dragged the cheesecake in front of her. After taking a bite, she couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Your chef's skills are really getting better and better! But... this doesn't seem to be the same chef as before?"
"We've hired a new chef who's good at making Western-style desserts." Feng Jiayan smiled as he watched Tao Tao eat the cake and said, "If you like, you can come to my house to eat."
Tao Tao nodded without hesitation, completely unaware of the smile deepening on Feng Jiayan's lips.

During the summer vacation after Tao Tao graduated from the college entrance examination, the system's task progress bar quietly reached 100%.
Tao Tao and the system were still trying to figure out what had happened.
As a result, I received a call from my friend Gu Shanshan.
"Cao Haoyu and I are together." Gu Shanshan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Okay, case solved.
Tao Tao and Gu Shanshan made an appointment to meet at a dessert shop. As soon as Gu Shanshan walked into the dessert shop, she saw the stacked cake plates on the table in front of Tao Tao.
Even after knowing each other for so many years, Gu Shanshan is still occasionally surprised by Tao Tao's appetite.
"It's a pity that you don't become a food anchor." Gu Shanshan said as she sat down opposite Tao Tao.
Smelling Gu Shanshan's scent, Tao Tao finally took her eyes off the dessert and looked at her friend: "Tell me! How did you and Cao Haoyu get together?"
The story of Gu Shanshan and Cao Haoyu is simple and cliché.
It's probably like childhood sweethearts + bickering rivals. As they play and fight along the way, they slowly discover they have different feelings for each other.
This kind of plot has appeared countless times in various TV dramas and novels, but because the protagonist of the story was someone she knew, Tao Tao listened with special interest and kept asking about the details of the story.
"So did you confess first or did he?"
"When did you find out that Cao Haoyu also likes you?"
"Before you officially confessed your feelings, did you go out on a date? Did you kiss? Did you hold hands?"
…
Gu Shanshan answered every question at first, but as Tao Tao's questions became more and more detailed, Gu Shanshan's ears turned completely red. Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore and covered Tao Tao's mouth: "Stop!"
Tao Tao then stopped asking questions, but her round eyes were still fixed on Gu Shanshan, her curiosity almost overflowing.
Gu Shanshan's mind moved, and she asked, "What about you and Feng Jiayan? What's the situation now?"
"Hmm?" Tao Tao tilted her head. "What does it have to do with Jia Jia?"
"What does it matter?" Gu Shanshan raised her eyebrows, looking at Tao Tao's eyes that seemed completely clueless, and suddenly thought of a possibility, "You..."
But before Gu Shanshan could finish her words, Tao Tao's phone suddenly vibrated.
Tao Tao missed the gossipy look in Gu Shanshan's eyes and looked down at her phone: "Jia Jia said he'll be passing by soon and wants to have dessert too. I'll send him the location."
Just happened to be there? Just passing by?
Just as Tao Tao was sending the location, Gu Shanshan raised her eyebrows: "Where did he come from?"
Tao Tao didn't pay attention and just reported the location.
"The route from there to this dessert shop is completely the opposite of the route home." Gu Shanshan held her chin with an expression of "as expected" in her eyes.
Tao Tao's fingers suddenly paused.
Fifteen minutes later, the tall young man pushed open the door of the dessert shop, walked straight to Tao Tao and sat down.
Gu Shanshan was watching from the side, but Feng Jiayan's eyes were fixed on Tao Tao from the moment he entered the door.
"Jia Jia, do you know that Shanshan and Xiaoyu are together?" It was not until Tao Tao mentioned it that Feng Jiayan raised his head slightly and glanced at Gu Shanshan.
"Um."
Feng Jiayan only uttered one interjection and didn't say anything else.
Gu Shanshan bit her straw and watched the interaction between Tao Tao and Feng Jiayan with great interest. This glance made her see something special.
Tao Tao wore a white short-sleeved shirt and a peach pink pleated skirt today, while Feng Jiayan wore an exquisite white shirt and trousers, but decorated his cuffs with pink crystal cufflinks.
Speaking of which...
Back in school, she'd occasionally overheard classmates discussing whether Tao Tao and Feng Jiayan were wearing matching outfits. But back then, uniforms were mandatory, so the only references were small accessories. Whenever Tao Tao wore a certain color, Feng Jiayan would always have a matching hair tie.
Thinking of Tao Tao's innocent look just now, Gu Shanshan's eyes moved slightly.
When they parted, Gu Shanshan smiled and said, "Jia Yan, your cufflinks are the same color as Tao Tao's skirt. What a coincidence."
Hearing this, Feng Jiayan, who was always calm, paused before continuing, "Yes, what a coincidence."
Gu Shanshan's gaze fell on Tao Tao's face. Seeing Tao Tao's thoughtful expression, she turned and left.
Taotao...
I can only help you here for now.

On the day they entered university, candid photos of Feng Jiayan and Tao Tao appeared on the forum and both became hot topics.
Then, a picture of the two of them from behind quickly appeared on the forum, completely overshadowing the popularity of the individual photos.
The alumni who were originally trying to figure out the two people's names soon shifted their focus to—
Are they a couple?
At the same time, Feng Jiayan, who uploaded the picture of the two people's backs, clapped his hands, hiding his achievements and fame.
After observing for a while, the alumni couldn't help but feel heartbroken and almost all accepted the fact that the two were a couple.
after all……
The tacit understanding between their gestures, the preference shown by Feng Jiayan, and Tao Tao's natural closeness... are enough to shatter the confidence of many people.
But even so, there are still people who muster up the courage to rush up to the two of them and confess their love.
Just like now.
"I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
Tao Tao looked at the flowers in front of her and the boy holding the flowers. Before she could say anything, an arm stretched out from the side and separated the flowers from Tao Tao.
Feng Jiayan came in a hurry, and his usually well-kept hair was slightly deformed by the wind. "Excuse me, who are you?"
The tone is polite, but the content is irritating.
The boy holding the flowers looked between the two of them, and finally landed on Tao Tao's face: "You..."
It's not that he doesn't know the rumors between Feng Jiayan and Tao Tao, he just wants to give it a try.
Feng Jiayan didn't answer, but just took Tao Tao's hand calmly.
After the boy left, Feng Jiayan heard a voice behind him: "Jia Jia, do you have something to say to me?"
Feng Jiayan looked at Tao Tao and blurted out the words that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, "I like you."
After saying this, Feng Jiayan looked at Tao Tao with a little nervousness.
Then I saw Tao Tao slightly raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a sly smile: "What a coincidence, me too."
When the two hugged each other, Tao Tao opened her eyes and smiled and made an OK sign to the boy with flowers whom she had asked to hold in the distance.
