Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

The sky was dark, and the afterglow of the sunset was golden.

Through the gaps in the branches and leaves on both sides, dappled patterns are spread across the tree-lined path.

Ring ring...

The bicycle bell rang out crisply.

A figure in a school uniform rode past on a bicycle.

The wheels rolled across the ground, sending fallen leaves flying everywhere.

"Don't ride too fast, there's nowhere to hold onto your bike."

In the back seat of the car, a girl's voice was cold and aloof.

She spoke expressionlessly, her body swaying and shaking with the constant vibrations of the car.

She could have grabbed the support frame under the seat in front of her for a little support.

But today, this person deliberately adjusted the tables and chairs to their lowest position.

There was no gap left for her to reach in and grab it.

Not to mention she's sitting sideways right now.

This person said something like, "Other girls sit sideways, it's so ungraceful for you to sit upright."

Bang!

The bicycle made a sound as it rode up a set of steps.

This caused the already unsteady girl to sway even more from side to side.

My hand involuntarily gripped the edge of the right side of the seat, my knuckles turning white from the force.

He could only move his body a little closer to the right, leaving some gaps at the rear of the poorly made cotton seat that was obviously added at the back, and he supported himself with his left hand.

As the vehicle gradually stabilized.

The girl glanced at it from the side.

It was all flat ground ahead.

This person insists on walking on the side slopes or in secluded corners.

"Is that fast?"

"It's already very slow, and it'll be dark soon. If you're afraid of falling, just hold on tight!"

The boy on the bike in front shouted, and his voice was fairly clear.

But the girl didn't speak, and pretended not to hear.

Even so, the bicycle still slowed down.

The boy continued speaking, his voice drifting on the wind, carrying a sinister undertone.

"Slow down is fine too. I've heard this area is a bit unclean, and ghosts are said to appear late at night."

"The sun is setting now, and the yin energy is strong, so you don't need to be afraid."

The girl lowered her head, her eyes flickering slightly.

It's a very clumsy attempt to scare people; who would believe it?

The boy rode his bike slowly, enjoying the gentle evening breeze.

The only drawback.

He showed off his skills in various ways for several days.

The girl in the back seat wasn't very resilient.

well..

He sighed softly, just as he was thinking of riding his bicycle back onto the normal concrete road instead of detouring around the sidewalk.

A pair of hands gently rested on his waist.

The girl in the back seat had her head down.

Her long hair fell across her forehead, revealing no emotion; only her soft voice could be heard.

"Then ride faster."

The boy paused for a moment, then a smile quickly appeared on his face.

He gripped the handlebars, his voice light and cheerful.

"No problem, but you'd better hold on tight!"

......

"Qingxue? Qingxue?"

"Qingxue, wake up! Class is starting!"

...

Lin Qingxue vaguely felt her body being shaken.

Liu Yun's voice could still be heard in my ears.

Everything before my eyes vanished, turning into complete darkness.

Lin Qingxue's body stiffened slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

For a moment his eyes were blank, but his vision gradually cleared.

"Qingxue, you're finally awake! We're going to be late!"

Liu Yun called out from the bed next to her.

Lin Qingxue blinked, her long eyelashes trembling slightly before slowly falling down.

A sense of loss inexplicably welled up in my heart.

turn out to be...

It was a dream...

Lin Qingxue was silent for a moment, but quickly composed herself.

As he slowly got up...

But then he found himself tightly hugging a pillow in his arms.

Just like in a dream.

Liu Yun, who was in the next bed, continued to speak.

"Qingxue, were you having a wonderful dream?"

"I held back for a long time before waking you up, thinking that you had a nightmare yesterday, so having a good dream today would be a way to make up for it."

"But I was really afraid of being late for class, so I called you after everyone else had left."

Lin Qingxue paused slightly, and the scene from her dream came to mind again.

A hint of pink appeared on the tips of her ears.

But soon, the scene changed, showing a face contorted with rage.

The word "get lost" seemed to echo in my ears.

Lin Qingxue curled up, resting her chin on her knees, her eyes staring blankly at the bed sheets.

Everything was normal before.

There was no change in myself or anyone else.

They continued to get along in the same way.

But why...?

Why is he... like a completely different person?

Lin Qingxue felt dizzy and her face looked tired.

The better the person in your dream, the greater the gap between reality and reality.

She actually hoped that the person would treat her coldly from the beginning.

This confirmed the stereotypes he held in his heart.

At least this way I won't have any more thoughts about it.

But unfortunately...

Lin Qingxue huddled even tighter, burying her face in her knees, and spoke softly.

"Too late..."

I seemed to hear something coming from her side, but I couldn't quite make it out.

Liu Yun suddenly asked again.

"Yes, Qingxue, we're going to be late. Aren't you getting up?"

She stretched out her body, reached for a hair tie, and tied her hair up.

A few breaths.

Her expression returned to normal, and she looked calmly to the side.

Liu Yun was still lying quietly on the bed, covered with a thin sheet, occasionally raising her head to look in his direction.

It's as if they're watching their own movements to decide whether or not to get out of bed.

Lin Qingxue's eyes twitched slightly, and it took her a long time to speak.

"Get up first, don't try to sleep a few more minutes!"

"oh..."

Liu Yun sat up with a mix of regret and reluctance.

She thought she could use the excuse that the class monitor also slept in late to be properly late.

That way, no one can criticize her!

I should have woken Qingxue up later!

While she was lost in thought.

Lin Qingxue got out of bed and quickly straightened her clothes.

I opened the cabinet, picked up the schoolbag inside, and was about to put it on when...

The phone in the cabinet suddenly rang; it was a text message.

Lin Qingxue paused in her breath.

The sender is displayed on the screen.

【Ah Yan】

Her eyelids twitched, and a bad feeling welled up inside her.
