Seeing her younger sister's sincere attitude, Gu Yunxi's worries and unhappiness dissipated. She knew that although her sister was young, she was already able to understand her mistakes and was willing to correct them. This mature attitude made Gu Yunxi feel gratified.
Gu Yunxi gently patted Gu Yuanzhi's head and smiled, saying, "Alright, it's good that you know you were wrong. We all need to learn how to be honest and responsible people. I believe you can do it." Her words were full of encouragement and trust for her younger sister.
Weekends always fly by, and before she knew it, Gu Yunxi was back at school, immersed in her busy and fulfilling university life. Gu Yuanzhi, on the other hand, as a junior high school student, did not choose to live at school and would return to her warm home every day after school.
After school that day, Pei Yanchuan caught up with Gu Yuanzhi, who was about to leave. He smiled and said, "Let me take you home." Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanzhi immediately pouted and refused somewhat shyly, "No need to trouble yourself, I can go home by myself." She remembered what had happened the day before yesterday when her sister found her and Pei Yanchuan at the bookstore, and she was still a little uneasy.
Pei Yanchuan didn't seem to care. He shrugged casually and said, "What does it matter? You're going to marry me anyway." His words were half-true and half-false, carrying a hint of joke and confidence.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanzhi's face flushed instantly. She hurriedly denied it, saying, "Who wants to marry you? Don't talk nonsense." Her voice was filled with shyness and panic, clearly showing that she was both surprised and embarrassed by Pei Yanchuan's words.
Looking at Gu Yuanzhi's blushing face, Pei Yanchuan couldn't help but tease her, "If you don't marry me, who will you marry?" His words were full of playfulness, but also revealed a hint of seriousness. Their interaction, though filled with childish jokes, also conveyed a sweetness and anticipation unique to youth.
Gu Yuanzhi didn't respond further, but quickened her pace, trying to shake off Pei Yanchuan's teasing. Seeing this, Pei Yanchuan stopped teasing her and silently followed beside her, accompanying her on the way home.
The setting sun cast long shadows on the two boys. They chatted and laughed along the way, discussing school anecdotes and their future dreams. Although Gu Yuanzhi felt shy about Pei Yanchuan's jokes, she secretly hoped that one day she could walk towards a brighter future with this boy who always brought her joy.
Time slips away silently, like sand through fingers. In the blink of an eye, another weekend arrived. Gu Yunxi, Qian Ziyi, and Lu Jingang walked together towards the school gate. The sunlight shone on them, warm and bright, foreshadowing a relaxing and enjoyable weekend.
Along the way, Qian Ziyi enthusiastically suggested, "Where should we go this weekend?" She's always like this, full of enthusiasm and curiosity for life, planning trips and exploring new things every weekend. In her view, youth should be enjoyed to the fullest and explored to the fullest.
Gu Yunxi and Lu Jingang listened to Qian Ziyi's suggestion with excitement and anticipation. They were both young, full of energy and a desire to explore the world. University life was not just about studying, but also about making friends and experiencing life.
The three walked and discussed, proposing various possible destinations and activities. From the natural scenery around the city to bustling shopping malls, from quaint cafes to lively amusement parks, every option was full of appeal.
In the end, they decided to go out together the next day. As they said goodbye, Qian Ziyi reminded them, "Don't forget, meet at the school gate at nine o'clock tomorrow morning!" Gu Yunxi and Lu Jingang smiled and agreed, then went home.
Back home, Gu Yunxi began preparing for her trip the next day. She checked her backpack to make sure she had all the necessities. At the same time, she looked forward to the fun time with her friends.
On a weekend morning, sunlight streamed through the curtains into the cozy home. Gu Yunxi stood in the living room, preparing to leave and enjoy her weekend. Before leaving, as usual, with a hint of anticipation and concern, she invited her younger sister, Gu Yuanzhi: "Yuanzhi, I'm going out with my friends today, do you want to come along?"
Gu Yuanzhi sat on the sofa, a book still in her hand. She looked up, her eyes revealing a hint of determination and honesty, and answered directly, "Sister, I'm not going. I made plans to go to the library with my classmate." Her voice was clear and frank, clearly showing that she had learned her lesson from the previous little incident.
Gu Yunxi was slightly taken aback, then revealed a relieved smile and replied softly, "Oh, is it that little classmate from last time?" Her words carried a hint of teasing, but more so, they showed her understanding and support for her younger sister.
Gu Yuanzhi's face instantly flushed slightly. She nodded shyly and said softly, "Yes, it's him. We'll study together in the library." Her eyes sparkled with a thirst for knowledge and a deep appreciation for friendship.
Gu Yunxi stepped forward, gently ruffled her younger sister's hair, and said tenderly, "Alright, go ahead, study hard, and remember to rest." Her words were full of a sister's love and encouragement for her younger sister.
Gu Yuanzhi looked up at Gu Yunxi earnestly and said gratefully, "Sister, thank you for your understanding. I hope you all had a good time." Her heart was warmed, and she felt very lucky to have such a sister.
Gu Yunxi smiled, turned around, picked up her backpack, and walked towards the door. As she opened the door, she turned back to Gu Yuanzhi and said, "Xiaozhi, remember to come home early." A hint of concern lingered in her voice.
Gu Yuanzhi stood up and waved goodbye to her sister, saying, "Okay, goodbye sister." Her voice carried a hint of reluctance, but even more so, anticipation for the upcoming library trip.
On a bright and sunny weekend morning, Gu Yuanzhi stepped out of her house at the agreed time. She walked through the familiar courtyard and saw Pei Yanchuan as soon as she stepped out. He was standing under the shade of a tree outside the gate, his posture upright, as if he had been waiting for a while.
Gu Yuanzhi quickened her pace, jogging towards him. Her long hair swayed gently with each step, and a slightly apologetic smile graced her face.
Seeing her hurried appearance, Pei Yanchuan said gently, "No need to rush, there's plenty of time." His voice was calm and reassuring, like a spring breeze that dispelled the tension in Gu Yuanzhi's heart.
Gu Yuanzhi stopped, slightly out of breath, and replied apologetically, "I was afraid you'd have to wait too long." Her eyes sparkled with sincerity and concern, clearly showing how much she cared about Pei Yanchuan's feelings.
