Returning to my senior year of high school before college, I became addicted to dating.

Raymond Lam returned to the video arcade and locked the door behind him.

On TV, Uncle Ying is leading his apprentices to fight zombies with a peach wood sword!

Startled, Song Yan huddled in a corner, clutching her blanket.

Seeing Lin Feng return, she said, annoyed and embarrassed, "Lin Feng, why did you take so long? How annoying!"

Lin Feng handed her a bottle of Da Bai Li soda: "Here, honey, have some soda to calm your nerves."

Song Yan glared at him, took the soda, took a sip, and put it on the bedside table next to her. She was clearly still angry.

Raymond Lam pulled out the pink heart-shaped chocolate gift box from behind his back and smiled:

"Silly girl, I went to buy you a present. Here... it's for you."

Song Yan's eyes lit up immediately:

"Wow! A pink Dove Valentine's Day gift box, this is so expensive, is it really for me?"

Raymond Lam flashed a greasy smile:

"Silly girl, of course it's for you. Nothing in this world is more precious than you."

Song Yan was taken aback. She had a feeling that Lin Feng's words were strange after they kissed.

How...how could this be so disgusting?

But she didn't think much of it and held the pink heart-shaped tin box with great affection.

During this period, girls in the county town were like that—naive and innocent.

At that time, when students were dating, they would usually give each other 99 origami cranes, 1000 little stars, or some small trinkets like hair clips, which cost almost nothing.

Seeing Song Yan so happy, Lin Feng quickly pressed his advantage.

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Song Yan's slender waist: "Do you like it?"

Song Yan nodded: "I like it, thank you. This must have cost you half a month's living expenses, right? You probably don't even have money left to go to internet cafes all night, do you?"

After saying that, she took out ten yuan and handed it to Lin Feng:

"Here! Take this and use it for the night! Didn't you make plans to go all night with Tiger?"

Lin Feng looked at the crumpled ten-yuan note and felt a warmth in his heart!

Ten yuan was a lot of money at that time. An overnight stay at an internet cafe only cost five yuan. Song Yan gave him ten yuan, probably hoping he would buy water and cigarettes.

Lin Feng pushed the money back: "Fool, I have money. You keep it!"

Before Song Yan could say anything, Lin Feng kissed her directly.

It tastes sweet, like the flavor of pear soda.

Song Yan was taken aback, then immediately closed her eyes and cooperated.

At 18, I was curious and longed for this. There was no hesitation or reluctance, only full of anticipation and pure liking.

As they kissed, Lin Feng's hands started to wander, groping and fiddling.

Song Yan broke free and giggled, "It tickles so much! Why do you keep touching me?"

Lin Feng laughed and said, "It's nothing, I was just curious. Let's hug! I want to hug you."

Song Yan nodded, and the two lay on the bed, covered with blankets, and hugged each other.

After a while, Raymond Lam said again, "It's so hot wearing clothes in the middle of summer, let's take them off."

Song Yan looked at him with a blank expression.

Lin Feng scratched his head and said seriously, "Hehe. Don't worry, I definitely won't do anything rash."

Song Yan thought for a moment, then nodded.

A moment later...

Song Yan: "Feed... Lin Feng, are you crazy?"

"This is disgusting..."

"Shut up..."

Time passed by, and Song Yan gradually adapted.

That's the advantage of video arcades: you can watch a DVD for five yuan for one and a half to two hours.

But the cheapest room costs 15 yuan, and there's no private bathroom. The environment is even worse than a video arcade!

At that time, video arcades were the best value for money.

Most of the people watching the video were couples.

So it's normal to hear some strange noises here.

More than an hour later, Lin Feng looked satisfied.

Song Yan's face was streaked with tears (from the pain).

Just then, there was a knock on the door:

"Your time's up! Want another disc? If not, hurry up and get out! There are other people waiting for a room!"

Lin Feng replied, "No more, wait two minutes, I'll be right out."

Five minutes later, Lin Feng led Song Yan, who was holding a box of chocolates, out of the room.

However... Song Yan's walk was a little unnatural.

When the two went out, Song Yan looked preoccupied and did not show any joy or happiness from having tasted forbidden fruit.

Raymond Lam asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Song Yan said worriedly, "Lin Feng, I...I'm scared."

Lin Feng found Song Yan's innocent cuteness and patted her head, saying, "Silly girl, what's there to be afraid of? Don't overthink it."

Lin Feng checked the time on his phone: "You should go back to your dorm now! I'll call you a taxi, I won't go back."

Song Yan said, "Take a taxi? Why waste the money? It's only four or five kilometers, I can walk back!"

Lin Feng firmly said, "No way! You can't walk easily right now. Be good, listen to me, I'll pay."

Song Yan couldn't refuse him, so she hailed a taxi on the roadside: "Driver, take her to Xinfadi."

The driver, a cigarette dangling from his lips, said, "Three yuan."

Lin Feng paid the money, closed the car door, and watched the taxi leave.

They all live in private dormitories, which are boarding homes.

After the car drove away, Lin Feng fell into deep thought. There were still three days before he was going to get beaten up.

It was this beating that really hurt him.

Liu Chengcheng, who had a crush on him, called Tiger.

Tiger and his gang of thugs gave the mastermind behind the attack on Lin Feng a severe beating, nearly blinding him in one eye and injuring his legs and arms.

The police and the other party's parents are both looking for him. The other party's parents even made a threat, saying that if they catch Lin Feng, they will cripple his hands and feet.

Lin Feng's aunt and grandmother were terrified. His uncle bought him a train ticket and sent it to Beijing overnight.

This is also one of Raymond Lam's regrets. He didn't want to leave, but he couldn't go against his family's wishes; they practically tied him up.

He ran away, but he ruined Tiger and his gang of young thugs. None of them escaped; they were imprisoned for seven days, and more importantly, they had to pay compensation!

Even so, Tiger never blamed him, and he continued to stay in touch with Tiger until 2026.

So we have to get past this hurdle first.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng also hailed a taxi.

He needs to go to the bank first to check if the money in his card is still there.

If there's still money in the card, then it's ready to take off.
