Chapter 48
The college entrance examination results have been released. Jiang Qiuxu scored more than 580 points, which is enough for her to go to the agricultural university she has always wanted to attend. Although according to her subject selection, she can only choose landscape architecture, in order to be closer to Du Xiwei's school, the two of them still stubbornly began to discuss filling out the application form.
By the time she finished filling out her application, there was still no news from Xie Yusheng. But it was time to go back to school to get his diploma. The class was having a party that evening, and Xie Yusheng had to go. Regardless, Jiang Qiuxu had to start preparing graduation gifts for Xie Yusheng and Wu Lin. Aside from Du Xiwei, she had the closest relationship with these two throughout her high school career.
The gift for Wu Lin was Luochuan merchandise, perfect for a gamer like him. The gift for Xie Yusheng was a notebook, the front page of which was Jiang Qiuxu's own diary. Sitting at her desk in her room, Jiang Qiuxu hesitated. She wanted to hide something in the notebook, a glimpse into her thoughts during her senior year. Figuring Xie Yusheng wouldn't find this Easter egg, Jiang Qiuxu added a little work to it.
On June 26, 2024, Jiang Qiuxu slept too late and arrived at the classroom at the last minute to pick up his diploma. After Du Xiwei arrived, the two of them went to the meeting place set by the class monitor. It was almost seven o'clock when they arrived. The two of them were basically the last to arrive, so they found a random place to sit down. As soon as he sat down, Jiang Qiuxu saw Xie Yusheng. He had indeed come, but the clothes he was wearing...
Jiang Qiuxu leaned over to Du Xiwei and complained, "Why is Xie Yusheng wearing a 'badass' outfit? Is that right?" Before Du Xiwei could respond, Peng Chunli suddenly appeared out of nowhere and said sarcastically, "Ah, right, right, you're the only one who saw it."
For a moment, Jiang Qiuxu was speechless. How did Peng Chunli hear her complaints? Did she listen to their conversation?
At this moment, Du Xiwei suddenly smiled and said to Jiang Qiuxu, "Aren't you going to give graduation gifts? Give Wu Lin's share to me and I'll give it to him for you. Take Xie Yusheng out now and give him his share. You can chat with him while you're at it. I'll come find you later." Jiang Qiuxu gave the things to Du Xiwei. Looking at Du Xiwei's expression, she felt that her good friend was going to get angry.
Jiang Qiuxu walked to Xie Yusheng with the bag and said softly, "Let's go out and talk for a while." Xie Yusheng didn't say anything, but just followed Jiang Qiuxu out quietly.
The party had booked the entire top floor of the restaurant, and Jiang Qiuxu and Xie Yusheng came to the edge of the rooftop railing. After Jiang Qiuxu gave Xie Yusheng the gift, he looked at the bustling street below and didn't know what to talk about with Xie Yusheng. After leaving high school, they seemed to have no deep topics to discuss, and it had been so long since they last saw each other, and the two of them seemed even more unfamiliar.
"Yes, I asked you before if you could let me see the novel you wrote, but you didn't agree at that time. Now I want to ask again." The two of them were silent for a long time before Jiang Qiuxu finally brought up the topic, starting with this novel that was a bit special to both Xie Yusheng and Jiang Qiuxu.
Jiang Qiuxu looked at Xie Yusheng beside him, his face hazy in the night. Xie Yusheng lowered his eyes and watched the passing cars below him in silence for a long time. Finally, he politely declined, "Next time." For a moment, Jiang Qiuxu seemed to see a hint of regret in his eyes.
