The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

[You have been selected as an outstanding promotional representative for food delivery riders in Beihai City, and your poster has been displayed at the entrance of the headquarters.]

It is said that when Chen Dalei, who was in the detention center, heard this news, he almost killed himself by banging his head against a wall.

But you didn't pay much attention to these things because you devoted the last two weeks of your life to the food delivery business.

This might sound obvious, but this time your focus isn't on order volume.

In these ten days, you assisted with four car accident transports, delivered two babies, rescued a child from drowning, and rejected nine young women who wanted to have affairs with you.

One of the young women even followed you to the station, hoping to spend the night with you.

Your reputation as Cao Cao of the East City is now fully established.

You've successfully become a food delivery hero, but unfortunately, you haven't encountered any attackers, so your martial arts skills are useless.

The downside is that you haven't been eating lately because the big exam is just around the corner, and you've told Shang Qingya to focus all her energy on studying.

But Shang Qingya's heart was still filled with anxiety.

You decide to take Shang Qingya, who's been cooped up in her room studying all day, out for some fresh air.

Lu Yuan walked along the path with an umbrella.

Shang Qingya followed behind him with small, quick steps, her eyes filled with worry.

"Relax a bit, isn't this your favorite rainy day?"

How did you know I like rainy days!

"Would you like a popsicle?"

"I asked you how you knew I like rainy days!"

Shang Qingya stopped in place, tilting her head and tugging at Lu Yuan's clothes.

For a professional rider like Lu Yuan, encountering a typical stop wouldn't cause him any panic.

But when he was stopped by the tug on his clothes, he did panic a little.

While unconsciously wiping her forehead, she said:

"It's so hot today."

"It's raining today!" Shang Qingya said angrily, biting her lip. "Did you peek into my notebook?!"

"I swear I didn't peek at your diary! I just heard you talking in your sleep that day."

Lu Yuan does not accept such slander.

He would never do something like looking at someone else's notes.

He only overheard Shang Qingya's fantasy that one time.

Each one is prefixed with "on a damp, rainy day," which clearly indicates a fondness for rainy days.

"So you were just teasing me that time!"

"As long as you're happy."

"Waaaaah."

Shang Qingya stood there and suddenly burst into tears, gradually crying louder and louder.

Tears fell into the puddle, splashing up small but not large droplets.

"I apologize to you!"

"Waaaaah."

She cried louder and louder, at one point even drowning out the car horns on the street.

Lu Yuan held up an umbrella and moved closer to her, covering her head with the umbrella as well.

But she looked up, her big eyes blinking as she stared at Lu Yuan.

"Why have you stopped crying?"

"Was I crying too loudly?"

"I have a way."

Lu Yuan clamped the umbrella between his neck and raised his hands to cover his ears.

But he didn't plug his own ears; he plugged Shang Qingya's ears instead.

A tall man stood by the roadside, holding an umbrella between his neck and shoulders, and bent down to cover the girl's ears.

With a smug look on her face, and as if afraid Shang Qingya wouldn't hear her, she shouted at her, "Stop arguing now, okay?"

"Bone conduction! It's even noisier now!"

Shang Qingya opened her eyes and looked at Lu Yuan's large face as he approached.

It made whimpering sounds while also laughing in exasperation.

"Lu Yuan, what if I don't do well on the exam?"

"If I do poorly on the exam, I'll just deliver food; I won't starve."

"But I want to buy a small house that I can design myself."

Most of the source of human anxiety is the fear that the ideas in one's mind will not be achieved.

Shang Qingya dreamed of having her own little home, with a door shaped like a big pineapple.

Have you heard of Fermat's Law?

"Never heard of it."

Shang Qingya shook her head.

"The principle of the shortest optical path means that light will always travel along the shortest path. For example, when light passes through the surface of water, it will be refracted. This is because the speed of light in water is very slow, so refraction is faster than the straight line in the common sense."

Lu Yuan leaned against the lamppost and whispered, "How do you think light knows where the shortest path is?"

"Because this road is a marked shortcut?"

"I don't know, but at least it proves that the moment light departs from the sun, it already knows how to reach the bottom of the water faster."

Lu Yuan shook his finger and said, "From this, we can also assume that a person's destiny is predetermined, just like the path of light."

"So all my anxiety is pointless? Is the outcome already predetermined?"

"No, when you decide to climb the mountain, there is already a version of you standing on the summit. This is one of your countless possibilities for the future."

With each step you take, the idea of ​​climbing the mountain becomes more tangible as you see the scenery on both sides and the texture of the steps beneath your feet.

As long as you firmly envision your future and continuously visualize that idea, the you at the mountaintop will guide the present you to climb the mountain.

The so-called big exam is just a stepping stone for you to realize your future.

Even if you fail, it won't stop the mountaintop from calling to you. You will definitely achieve the ending you desire, as long as your choices and free will are strong enough.

The pressure of major exams is unavoidable; even if Lu Yuan were to take the exam on his own, he wouldn't be able to remain unscathed.

All he could do was tell Shang Qingya.

Even if you slip and fall, it won't affect your journey to the final outcome.

As long as you are determined enough.

"I see."

Shang Qingya stood up and nodded.

It seems that the anxiety about this matter has been resolved.

But anxieties about other things are not so easy to resolve.

"It's a long road, but I can give you a lot."

Looking at the older sister who inexplicably appeared out of nowhere.

Shang Qingya looked puzzled, her lips visibly pouting, and stepped forward to stand in front of Lu Yuan.

Like the mother hen in the story of "The Eagle Catches the Chicks".

"Sis, why are you acting like a stalker fan?"

Lu Yuan was completely bewildered when he saw the figure suddenly jump out of the bushes.

This is his older sister who's been chasing after him, wanting him to have an affair.

There's nothing we can do; we can't afford to offend them, so we have to avoid them.

Lu Yuan could only pull Shang Qingya along as they ran back to where they parked their electric bikes, grabbed their raincoats, and went home.

Shang Qingya took the umbrella and held it up behind her back.

I was just about to ask who the woman from earlier was.

Then Lu Yuan's phone rang again.

"Could you take it out for me and see who it belongs to? It's in the right pocket."

Lu Yuan was driving, so of course he couldn't answer the phone.

Shang Qingya took out her phone and looked at the contact person.

Another headache struck.

"Lu Yuan, do you think I don't know who you are just because you have Aunt Jia in your contacts!"

Shang Qingya looked at the note and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Aunt Jia is Shen Jia!

They used to be best friends, and she remembered the last four digits of Shen Jia's phone number clearly.

I want to eat a popsicle.

"I'll buy you ten at the supermarket later. If you don't eat them, I'll bite you to death!"

Shang Qingya sat angrily in the back seat, reaching out to tug at Lu Yuan's clothes.

Don't be angry, don't be angry, the college entrance exam is just around the corner.

I can confess my feelings after the college entrance exam, and then I'll declare my ownership!

So Shang Qingya, sitting in the back seat, started daydreaming again.

As Lu Yuan said, the more specific your idea, the more likely it is to be realized.

"If I confess my feelings, does that mean I don't need to hold onto his clothes anymore, and I can just hug him right away?"

"After confessing my feelings, I posted a bunch of photos of us together on Lu Yuan's WeChat Moments, which made Shen Jia furious."

"After confessing my feelings, everything is ready. All I need to do is earn money to buy a house and I can have a warm home."

A warm home needs to be broken down into smaller parts.

A home is just a house; warmth comes from people.

As she thought about it, she started smiling again.

Unconsciously, he leaned his head against Lu Yuan's back, smiling as he looked at the road ahead.

Thinking about it this way, the future really does look forward to!

...

Upon returning home, Shang Qingya couldn't wait to rush back to her room, lock the door, and immediately take out the cards.

She was going to do a final divination before the exam.

As is my habit, I first draw a card and make a wish upon it without turning it over.

She was about to finish, but then she drew another card.

This time, when she was doing the divination, she was thinking about Lu Yuan.

She wanted to open this card and take a look.

When the card is turned over, a self-devouring ouroboros appears; this is the Everlasting card.

In alchemy, the ouroboros symbolizes infinity and infinity.

It also often appears in the form of a Möbius strip, representing infinity.

This card looks pretty good.

But Shang Qingya's expression was not good.

Eternity represents the teaching that people should respect the laws of nature, including death and the end.

Because nothing in this world is eternal.

"Good cards are a cause for celebration, bad cards are just superstition!"

Ms. Shang Qingya, a leading figure in the fight against feudalism, decided to destroy superstitious ideas using the most violent methods.

She tore up the cards and threw them in the trash can.

"Thank goodness, I almost let superstitious ideas influence me!"

Shang Qingya patted her head, feeling that she was really smart.

Only a torn ouroboros image lay quietly in the trash can.
