Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

"Bai Li, I want to hold your hand!"

Jiang Ruyue frowned, grabbed Bai Li's arm with her small hands, and angrily gave orders.

"Stop fooling around."

Bai Li stopped chewing, turned his head, and poked Jiang Ruyue's delicate cheek with his finger:

"Your classmate is still outside, be mindful of the impact."

He turned his head to indicate the other half of his body that was being occupied:

"Besides, my other hand is being held by Mengmeng, and I need to use this hand to eat with chopsticks."

Following Bai Li's gaze, I looked over there.

The little girl, Li Mengmeng, was obediently tucking her legs together, which were encased in white stockings.

She held Bai Li's left arm with both hands, her delicate face pressed against the man's shoulder.

Upon hearing this, she looked up and secretly made a face at Jiang Ruyue.

Jiang Ruyue completely disregarded the students at the door.

"Who does he think he is!"

Jiang Ruyue pouted her rosy lips:

"It's just a roadside stall, completely irrelevant!"

She simply started throwing a tantrum, rolling her head back and forth on Bai Li's arm like a child begging for candy:

"I don't care! I want to hold your hand!"

Looking up at her first love's face, Jiang Ruyue's tone was so soft it could melt your heart:

"Please hold my hand, honey~"

The sticky, gooey texture made the four energetic young women sitting opposite them itch with envy.

Lin Xiaoshuang bit down on a disposable bamboo skewer and muttered under her breath:

"How shameless of you, calling me 'husband' already..."

Chen Tingting picked up her paper cup, took a sip of cola, and rolled her eyes:

"I wonder where he learned this trick from."

Seeing that Bai Li was still hesitating, Jiang Ruyue directly used her trump card:

"How about this?"

"I'll hold your hand with this one, and feed you barbecue with the other. I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Bai Li had no choice but to put her chopsticks on the table.

As soon as he opened his large hand, Jiang Ruyue eagerly stuffed her small hand inside.

This girl isn't satisfied with just holding hands.

She stretched out her slender fingers and forcefully pried open Bai Li's fingers one by one.

Then insert them one by one.

close.

Their fingers were intertwined tightly, their skin pressed together seamlessly.

After holding hands, Jiang Ruyue proudly raised their intertwined hands high, swayed them in mid-air, and smiled so hard her eyes curved into crescent moons.

"I read in a book that if you hold hands like this, you'll never escape my grasp for the rest of your life~"

Bai Li was both amused and exasperated by her childish behavior.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and feed me, I'm hungry."

"Okay!"

Jiang Ruyue picked up a skewer of meat tendons, bit off the greasiest piece at the front and swallowed it herself, then offered the rest of the meat to Bai Li's mouth.

Bai Li opened his mouth, picked off a skewer of meat, and chewed it, savoring the delicious aroma.

Jiang Ruyue fed the animals while initiating a conversation:

"Sister Xiaoshuang, have you had any fun things to do back in the village these past few days?"

Lin Xiaoshuang gets really excited when this is mentioned.

She put down the grilled cold noodles in her hand and began to talk about the battle situation in the village with great enthusiasm.

"Let me tell you, there are so many fun things to do!"

Lin Xiaoshuang gestured with her hands to tell her about Grandma Ma.

Jiang Ruyue nodded repeatedly as she listened.

At last.

"Serves you right!"

Jiang Ruyue's cursing also had a peculiar, endearing contrast:

"That old woman deserves to be taught a lesson for bullying Sister Xiaoshuang!"

She turned to look at Bai Li, her clear eyes sparkling with excitement:

"But you actually beat that brat up?"

Bai Li wiped her mouth with a tissue and mumbled a reply:

"Give them a piece of their mind while you're at it."

Zhang Qian sat opposite, gave a nonchalant snort, and looked completely unconcerned:

"Is that even a question?"

"We're all military men; do you think we can tolerate his bad habits?"

"How dare he bully Grandma and Xiaoshuang! We sisters are being lenient by not breaking his legs!"

Zhang Qian boasted with great enthusiasm.

Li Jiaxin also chimed in from the side:

"Exactly, even the eldest brother personally beat him up!"

After listening, Chen Tingting tapped her knuckles on the table.

She turned her head and pointed directly at the boy outside the door who was still enjoying the cold wind.

"There's really no point in hitting kids."

Chen Tingting's eyes gleamed with eagerness:

"Ruyue, is that four-eyed guy outside who's been pestering you getting annoying?"

She tossed her red hair and stood up:

"How about this, a few of us will go and teach him a lesson? I guarantee he'll wet his pants the next time he sees you!"

Jiang Ruyue's big eyes lit up.

From a young age, she was required by her family to be a well-behaved girl, proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

But deep down, he yearns for a life of freedom and unbridled joy.

This is also why she likes hanging out with these delinquent girls; there's no need to pretend, they can just do whatever they want.

"OK!"

Jiang Ruyue clapped her hands:

"Go ahead and beat him up if you want, I don't even know him anyway, I'm fed up with him."

"Yes, sir!"

Chen Tingting rolled up her sleeves and prepared to rush out, while Lin Xiaoshuang tacitly began searching for weapons.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Bai Li quickly interrupted.

"You guys better shut up, don't corrupt Ruyue."

Bai Li glanced at them helplessly:

"They're not breaking the law by standing outside, so stop thinking about taking action."

Seeing that Bai Li had spoken, the group of young women reluctantly returned to their seats.

Bai Li leaned back in his chair and turned to look at the door.

Through the glass door.

The boy stood there dumbfounded in the wind, his eyes wide open like saucers.

Bai Li found it amusing and simply raised his right hand, which was being tightly held by Jiang Ruyue.

With the back of your hand facing outwards and your fingers interlaced.

He swayed twice in mid-air towards the boy.

The message conveyed by this action is extremely cruel.

[To the little brother outside the door, I'm really sorry.]

I didn't want to hold your hand at first, but your aloof goddess begged me to, and I even had to eat the food that was practically fed to me.

The cold wind was howling outside.

The boy's mind went completely blank, and his hands holding the book trembled uncontrollably.

This is not a breakup negotiation at all!

This is like being forced to eat dog food right in front of him!

"No...it's impossible..."

"How is this possible?!"

He roared madly in his mind, smashing the worldview he had built up over the past eighteen years to pieces.

That's Jiang Ruyue!

That aloof goddess at school who would wipe a male classmate's pen several times with a wet wipe if the classmate borrowed it!

That perfect academic genius with extremely strict family education and a wealth of knowledge!

How could she possibly act like a little girl begging for candy, forcibly shoving her hand into that playboy's hand in public?

And they were even holding hands!

What broke his guard even more was that Jiang Ruyue actually took the initiative to pick up the plate and feed that scumbag!

That humble and ingratiating manner was hundreds of times more licking than when I fawned over her!

The boy felt like his world had collapsed, and his heart was being tossed around in a meat grinder.

Followed by.

Sitting to Bai Li's left, the innocent-looking little girl with a childlike face, dressed in white stockings and a uniform, also moved.

Jiang Ruyue stole the show by feeding the child, how could Li Mengmeng, the queen of green tea, possibly swallow this insult?

She took the crayfish from the table.

"Brother Bai Li, Mengmeng will peel shrimp for you~"

Li Mengmeng called out in a sweet, coquettish voice.

Peeling shrimp requires two hands, so the hands that were originally holding Bai Li's arm naturally need to be freed up.

Li Mengmeng's eyes darted around, and an idea came to her.

Before Bai Li could react, she felt her palm sink into something soft...

"Brother Bai Li's hands can't be idle, so he should stay here and put them down properly."

Li Mengmeng blinked her innocent big eyes, her tone pure:

"If your hands feel cold, you can go a step further to warm them up."

Bai Li was really losing his composure now, and quickly looked around:

"Mengmeng, we're out here, so be more discreet."

"No, please!"

Li Mengmeng shifted her body slightly:

"Since they're peeling shrimp and don't even have hands to hold you, they'll let you be their pillow for now."

The boy outside the door was completely devastated.

"Stop...stop it now!!!"

The boy screamed inwardly, and tears welled up uncontrollably.

"That's not the place to let go!!!"

That was a scene he never dared to dream of!

As a result, the guy just sat there, crumpling the cute little girl's backpack with his left hand, and holding hands with his beloved goddess while eating barbecue with his right hand.

There were also four hot, sassy girls on the other side.

This is absolutely inhumane torture!

Why does God have to torment him like this?

Why let him pass by this barbecue restaurant?!

The boy sniffled, his whole body trembling, his mind filled with only one thought:

escape.

He fled this place that had broken his heart.

however.

Fate's guillotine will always strike you most fatally when you are at your most vulnerable.

Just as the boy turned to leave.

Jiang Ruyue's movements inside made him stop.

Jiang Ruyue was so angry at Li Mengmeng's shameless behavior that her cheeks puffed up.

This little dwarf is resorting to such tricks to win favor?!

Then I must fight back!

"Slut~"

Jiang Ruyue turned to the side, cupped Bai Li's cheeks in her hands, and pressed her cool yet innocent first love face against his.

Her rosy cherry lips were pressed against Bai Li's lips.

It even sucked on it twice more forcefully.

After the kiss.

Jiang Ruyue stuck out her pink tongue and licked the grease from the corner of her mouth, giving a provocative look to the energetic young woman opposite her and Li Mengmeng, who was staring wide-eyed beside her.

"The taste of barbecue on my lips is so sweet~" Jiang Ruyue smacked her lips.

Bai Li felt the warmth on his lips and shook his head helplessly.

These girls will stop at nothing to win favor.

"Click."

Outside the barbecue restaurant.

The boy heard the sound of his heart shattering completely.

The last vestige of hope and fantasy was shattered by the image of Jiang Ruyue offering a kiss.

He stared blankly at the stunningly beautiful white moonlight in the shop.

Two lines of clear tears slid down her cheeks.

The boy turned away helplessly and stumbled into the cold night of Ping County.

From behind, it looks just like a dog.
