I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

Lin Zhou and Bai Wanwan walked into the classroom, casually swatting away the claws that the Demon Fish had secretly reached out from behind them.

Before he could even catch his breath, he noticed a somewhat familiar figure standing in front of him.

The girl stood gracefully with her hands behind her back, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Her long, soft hair fell smoothly over her shoulders, making her face appear much smaller than she remembered. Her once round and soft cheeks had thinned out, her jawline had become more defined, and her waist was so slender that it seemed as if it could be easily encircled.

When Koro smiled, the curve of her eyes remained unchanged.

It's sweet, with a hint of barely concealed anticipation.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

Luo Xiaoke had imagined the reunion scene countless times for today, and even practiced in advance what expression and tone of voice she should use to make it seem more natural.

Even last night, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

But when she actually stood in front of Lin Zhou, she couldn't say a word. She could only put her hands behind her back, smile quietly at him, and say, "Lin Zhou..."

She was worried that Lin Zhou wouldn't recognize her, but she was also afraid that he would recognize her at a glance.

It's a contradiction.

If she doesn't recognize her, she'll probably be sad for a long time.

But if she recognizes him, it seems that all her hidden thoughts will have nowhere to hide.

"what……"

Lin Zhou stared at her, stunned for a second, then his previously hesitant voice suddenly rose a little.

"cocoa?!"

Luo Xiaoke's eyelashes trembled slightly.

I really recognized him!

Is it because they are too familiar with each other? She had clearly taken off her earrings and jewelry on purpose.

Luo Xiaoke believes she has changed a lot. In the past few years, she has lost weight from 180 pounds to less than 100 pounds, and has grown her hair long. Even her classmates who are with her every day can hardly recognize her.

But Lin Zhou recognized her at a glance.

Luo Xiaoke pursed her lips, trying hard to suppress the ever-rising corners of her mouth. She tilted her head slightly, her long hair sliding down her shoulders, revealing her already red ear tips.

"Lin Zhou...am I...cute right now?"

She mustered her courage to ask, then quickly lowered her head, her fingers secretly twisting together behind her back, her voice growing softer and softer.

"This is what I look like now."

She waited so long and worked so hard for so long.

At this moment, I feel like a student who has finally handed in their exam paper, anxiously waiting for the evaluation from the person I care about most.

However, the next second, Lin Zhou suddenly grabbed her shoulders and said something that Luo Xiaoke least expected.

"Coco, are you sick?!"

Luo Xiaoke was stunned, and looked up to meet Lin Zhou's gaze.

Those eyes looked at her intently, their depths revealing undisguised worry.

"What..." Luo Xiaoke replied blankly.

"How come you've suddenly lost so much weight?" Lin Zhou reached out and pinched Luo Xiaoke's arm.

"You didn't have surgery again, did you? We haven't seen you for almost a year, and we've been so worried about you. Are you feeling alright? Are you really okay now?"

Luo Xiaoke stared at him blankly.

She did suffer a lot during her weight loss period.

There were times when she was so hungry she couldn't sleep, and times when she was so tired she squatted on the ground and didn't want to move. Her weight bounced back again and again, but she gritted her teeth and started over each time.

But she never told anyone these things.

When others see her, they are only surprised that she has lost weight, praise her for becoming more beautiful, and will gather around to ask her what method she used.

She had assumed Lin Zhou would do the same.

But Lin Zhou wasn't concerned about whether she became pretty or not.

He noticed how much weight she had suddenly lost, and it reminded him of the surgery she had undergone. He worried about her health and whether she had suffered a lot alone without anyone knowing.

yes……

Lin Zhou has never paid attention to his appearance; he has always been worried about his emotions and his health.

I knew this all along...

He clearly understood Lin Zhou's thoughts...

Luo Xiaoke opened her mouth, and her eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

She blinked frantically, trying to suppress the tears, but they kept welling up in her eyes, blurring the familiar face in front of her.

Why...?

She had been preparing for so long; she should be happy today.

But the bitterness and grievances that had been building up in my heart for so long suddenly found an outlet because of this simple word of concern.

It turns out there really are people who don't care what she becomes.

It turns out that even though she had been missing for almost a year, people were still thinking about her.

All my previous worries were just plain stupid.

"cocoa?"

Lin Zhou panicked even more when he saw her eyes reddening rapidly.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Luo Xiaoke shook her head, but tears were already rolling down her cheeks.

She hurriedly raised her sleeve to wipe away a tear, but as soon as she wiped one, more tears fell, quickly wetting her long eyelashes as well.

"Um...no...I...I just...I don't know what happened...I'm sorry..."

She sniffed, trying to smile, but her lips turned down in a wronged manner, and her voice became intermittent.

All the words in the world can ultimately be summed up in one sentence.

"I just...missed you."

Luo Xiaoke raised her wet eyes and looked at everyone, her longing, which she had kept hidden for so long, finally leaked out from her voice.

I miss you all...

"Why are you suddenly crying? I think I have some tissues here..."

Lin Zhou had just released one hand, preparing to bend down to find a tissue, when the girl in front of him suddenly took a step forward—

A faint fragrance wafts towards you.

The next moment, Luo Xiaoke hugged him tightly.

"cocoa?"

Lin Zhou's body stiffened.

Luo Xiaoke didn't speak, but buried her face in his shoulder, her arms tightening around him, as if she had finally grasped something she had lost and regained.

Her wet cheek brushed gently against his, her soft hair falling between their shoulders, still damp with her tears.

Ye Zhiyu watched this scene expressionlessly, then began to speak in a flat, monotone tone.

"Wow, a love triangle that started with infatuation and ended with abandonment. The victim comes knocking on the door. After many years, they reunite, their love and hate intertwined, their hatred as long as the sky."

She paused for half a second, then raised her hand and gestured a title that did not exist in the air.

Please tune in at 8 AM for the prime time slot, "The Temptation of Lin Zhou".

"What are you babbling about?" Lin Zhou asked, his face pressed against Luo Xiaoke's. After confirming that she wasn't sick and was just losing weight, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's good. I thought you were sick. I heard that people who are seriously ill become very thin."

"But Coco, didn't you say that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"

Luo Xiaoke was laughing, completely disregarding the gazes of the other students in the class, and hugged Lin Zhou without any restraint.

Even now, as Bai Wanwan, who had a blank expression, and Gu Yuning, who looked aggrieved, pulled her along, she still clung to Lin Zhou.

"Men and women shouldn't touch each other? I... I don't know anything about that!"

"Zhouzhou~"

"I like you the most..."

us……

We must always be together.

Whether in the past or the future, I will always be by your side, I will... always be watching over you.
