Going against the wind is the direction of youth.

The wounds from falls are like medals that are burning hot.

The girl's phone suddenly rang in her pocket. Holding the bouquet of pink roses in one hand, she hurriedly took out her phone with the other to check it.

The caller ID displayed on the screen is: Kong Yiji
The girl pressed the Bluetooth earpiece hanging on her ear, and the call was answered automatically.

"Lin Yufei!"

"Are you having another episode of your terrible sense of direction?!"

"Why aren't they back yet? Didn't they say they were coming back a long time ago?"

A constant stream of complaints came through the headphones.

"Shh!"

"Don't disturb my observation target!"

Lin Yufei replied softly.

Upon hearing this, the person on the phone indeed fell silent, but after a moment the voice came through again: "What observation subject?"

"Did the teacher assign homework?"

"almost."

"Didn't the teacher always say that a law student should have keen insight?"

Lin Yufei said softly as she looked at the tall figure in front of her.

"So, what is your object of observation?"

"A person who has just broken up with their lover!"

"Damn!"

"Only Judge Lin can make gossip sound so fresh and refined!"

The woman on the phone immediately started swearing.

"I've told you a million times already, I still haven't decided whether I want to be a lawyer or a judge."

"Perhaps I won't pursue a career related to law."

Lin Yufei corrected her friend's way of addressing her.

"So, what's so special about that person who's heartbroken?"

The tone on the phone was more relaxed, and Lin Yufei could even hear the sound of chewing potato chips; she could already picture it in her mind.

My friend Kong Xiaoyi was lying on her single bed in the dorm, with her legs crossed and her toes swinging leisurely. She took out some potato chips from an open bag with one hand, and with the other hand, she was on her phone, talking to herself while scrolling through "Little Black Book".

"He's very tall and kind of handsome."

"So, you're observing a handsome guy who's recently broken up with his girlfriend?"

"Uh, I guess so!"

"Lin Yufei, you haven't fallen for someone else, have you? Let me tell you, never get involved with love, or you'll get addicted and it'll be hard to quit!"

"What are you talking about? I was just curious about the unusual behaviors a heartbroken person might exhibit. Oh, you can help me write them down."

"So, what did you observe?"

"Very calm, his eyes are lifeless and devoid of light. He'll probably agree to whatever you ask. Well, that's all for now."

"Wait a minute, it sounds like he's started singing!"

Lin Yufei took a few quick steps, keeping a distance of about ten meters from Shen Yixiao in front of her.

And then she did hear singing!

It was less a song and more a "howl".

He was singing "Chasing the Wind," a song he had used as his phone ringtone, but it took Lin Yufei a while to recognize it.

The wounds from falls are like medals that are burning hot.

Chase the wind, be your own hero
The howling sound carried on the evening breeze of late September, with a distinctly sobbing tone.

"He cried."

Lin Yufei said softly again.

"See? This is the consequence of falling in love!"

"Yufei, let me tell you, you can't control love."

"Hmm, take a picture of a handsome guy and let me see it..."

Lin Yufei let her best friend chatter on and on, while she carefully followed behind Shen Yixiao.

Suddenly, Shen Yixiao felt as if he had stepped on a spring, and he sprinted forward wildly.

"He ran away!"

"So fast!"

Lin Yufei quickened her pace, but the distance between them only increased.

"Then hurry up and chase after him!"

"Don't let your subject of observation get away..."

Kong Xiaoyi, who was watching the drama unfold remotely, urged, "If the person can't be found, there won't be any more drama to watch."

"He ran too fast."

"I suspect he's a sports student, or perhaps heartbreak unleashed his potential!"

"A record of heartbreak symptoms: running wildly in the night!"

"He rushed into Sunset Park..."

Although I couldn't keep up with the other person's pace, fortunately it was a straight line, and I could still vaguely see the dark figure under the streetlights.

"There's an artificial lake in Sunset Park, is he thinking of doing something rash?"

"what??"

"No way!"

Lin Yufei was shocked and quickly ran away as well.

"Tell me immediately if you need to call the police."

"Uh-huh……"

Lin Yufei's vague response may have stemmed from her concern that Shen Yixiao might actually commit suicide, so she pushed herself to the limit.

By the time I ran into Sunset Park, I was completely out of breath.

"how's it going?"

Kong Xiaoyi's voice came through the earphones.

Lin Yufei was too weak to respond. She was panting heavily as she looked towards the artificial lake and, sure enough, saw that tall figure.

He was standing on the boardwalk by the artificial lake, one foot resting on the low wooden railing...

Suddenly, he roared at the artificial lake, letting out a cathartic roar!

"When did wolves appear in Sunset Park?"

Kong Xiaoyi's voice came through the earphones again.

"It's him."

"Symptoms of heartbreak: Shout out loud!"

Lin Yufei, whose breathing had become more steady, spoke.

Was he very emotional?

"He's not really going to jump into the lake, is he?!"

"Hard to say."

Lin Yufei walked quickly towards Shen Yixiao's direction.

Sunset Park is located in the heart of the university town, and students from several nearby universities often come here for walks, especially couples. But today is a holiday, and it's quite late, so there were only a few furtive couples near the artificial lake.

They were all busy with their own things, and even when they heard Shen Yixiao's shout, they just cursed him as an "idiot" and continued with their work.

thump!
When Lin Yufei was about 20 meters away from Shen Yixiao.

The other party really did "jump into the lake"!
what! !

Lin Yufei exclaimed in surprise, then ran towards the lake while shouting, "Help! Someone jumped into the lake!"

"Fuck!"

"She really jumped!"

"I'll call the police right away..."

"and many more!"

"It doesn't seem so!"

Lin Yufei noticed that although the boy jumped into the lake, he immediately stood up from the water.

The water in this artificial lake is very shallow, especially near the shore, where it is only about one meter deep.

She ran to the edge of the boardwalk and found the boy splashing water with his hands while cursing, "Damn! They actually dare to do shoddy construction in Beijing!"

"The railings are so flimsy..."

Shen Yixiao certainly had no suicidal thoughts. Although heartbreak was painful, he was always optimistic and wouldn't go to such extremes.

He must have stepped on the railing too hard, because the wooden railing broke and he lost his footing and fell into the artificial lake.

Just as Shen Yixiao was about to go ashore, a fair hand suddenly reached out in front of him.

He looked up at the owner of the hand. She was wearing a pink baseball cap with a few strands of hair peeking out from under the brim. She had a classic oval face and her skin glowed with a peach-like softness under the starlight. Her beautiful eyes were exceptionally lively, with slightly upturned corners. Her amber pupils seemed to hold shattered diamonds, sparkling with a soft, warm light.

The key point is that she was also holding a beautiful bouquet of pink roses in her arms.

Uh, this bouquet looks familiar.

Shen Yixiao remembered that when he was about to throw the bouquet of flowers into the trash can, someone asked him for it, so he gave it to them.

"Come up."

"Is it comfortable in the water?"

Lin Yufei extended her hand forward again.

At this moment, Shen Yixiao did need a hand to grab onto. He silently grasped the other person's hand, exerted a little force, and awkwardly returned to the boardwalk from the artificial lake.

"Just heartbreak."

"Was it really worth jumping into the lake?"

"Luckily the water was shallow. If something had really happened, how could I face your parents? They raised you with such difficulty!"

Lin Yufei kept a straight face and spoke in a lecturing tone.

"I didn't mean to jump into the lake!"

Shen Yixiao denied it.

"Alright, I won't tell a fourth person either."

Lin Yufei pouted and said, "You only have one life, I hope you cherish it."

Shen Yixiao was wearing jeans today, which were wet and heavy after being soaked in the lake, making them very uncomfortable to wear on her thighs.

He was just thinking of finding a place to check if the clothes in his backpack were also wet, but after hearing Lin Yufei's words, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and looked around suspiciously: "A fourth person?"

"No, where is the third person?"

Shen Yixiao subconsciously took a step back and looked at the beautiful girl opposite him: "You're not called Xiaoqian, are you?"

"What are you thinking about!"

Lin Yufei rolled her eyes, then pointed to the Bluetooth earphones hanging on her ears: "There's another one here."

"Oh!"

Shen Yixiao nodded, then realized that the other person was talking to a friend.

"thank you."

Shen Yixiao thanked them, saying that although the other person had only helped him up, they had come to save him.

"You're welcome."

"I hope you won't do anything so foolish again!"

Lin Yufei gave him a serious warning.

"I really didn't want to jump!"

Shen Yixiao was speechless for a moment, then pointed to the broken railing: "It's all because of this shoddy construction."

"Ok."

"I believe you don't really want to jump."

Lin Yufei nodded slightly.

"It was originally true."

"I was just venting my emotions."

Whether Shen Yixiao intentionally jumped into the lake or was involuntarily submerged, it was still very important.

As a top student at Sanjiang University, the son of the famous writer Shen Qiushan, and the eldest son of the Shen family, he still cared about his reputation.

"goodbye!"

Shen Yixiao waved to Lin Yufei, preparing to escape from this embarrassing place.

And silently added in my heart: Goodbye!
Forget everything that happened today!
Because her sneakers were filled with water, Shen Yixiao made a "plop plop" sound with every step she took, leaving wet footprints on the boardwalk.

The evening breeze blew.

Shen Yixiao couldn't help but shiver, and her legs instinctively clamped together.

He finally understood what it truly meant for the wind to cool his balls!
9 Month 30 Day!
Shen Yixiao felt that today was the most embarrassing day of his eighteen years of life.

none of them.

He reached into his pocket, preparing to use his phone to book a hotel for the night.

As it turned out, his pockets were empty.

Shen Yixiao's lips twitched.

If nothing unexpected happens, his phone should be lying in the artificial lake!
what! ! !
Shen Yixiao couldn't hold back any longer.

He let out a roar while gazing at the night sky.

tmd!

How can someone be so unlucky!
After yelling.

Shen Yixiao still felt unsatisfied.

He suddenly squatted down, then placed his hands on the ground and quickly started doing push-ups.

Lin Yufei, who was standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded by Shen Yixiao's "silky little combo".

Symptoms of heartbreak: push-ups?
Lin Yufei cautiously walked to Shen Yixiao's side and asked in a low voice, "Hey, are you alright?"
