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

Zhang Xinyi's words.

This immediately drew the attention of people in the surrounding area.

Lin Qingxue's body was already tense, but her expression remained unchanged, as calm as ever.

"Yeah, I didn't notice."

"I was just thinking about Shuxian asking me if there was another way to solve that problem, and I didn't see the front and back clearly for a moment."

As she spoke, she gently turned the book in front of her over, meeting his gaze without yielding an inch.

Zhang Xinyi's smile froze, and she stared straight at him.

I'm being polite by not calling you out, and you're still pretending?!

She rolled up the non-existent sleeves of her short-sleeved school uniform.

Just as he was about to speak, he laughed angrily.

"What you just did..."

Ring ring...

The bell rang to signal the end of evening self-study.

This also stopped Zhang Xinyi from finishing her sentence.

"I'm going back to my seat to get some books."

Lin Qingxue's eyes remained calm as she rose and left.

However, her slightly unsteady steps revealed that she was not calm.

"Look at her!"

Zhang Xinyi pointed at her back and hurriedly called out to Chen Jianji.

"She criticized me, and you didn't even speak up for me? Are you even human?"

"I won't help you?"

Chen Jianji stared wide-eyed, somewhat speechless.

"I don't even know what happened, what am I supposed to say?"

"you!"

Zhang Xinyi wanted to say something more.

Sitting opposite her, Wang Shuxian couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

"Xinyi, the day you first came to the class, I thought you would be difficult to get along with, so noble and arrogant."

"I didn't expect you to be so...so honest."

"Especially that move just now."

As Wang Shuxian spoke, she pretended to roll up her sleeves with her hands.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Xinyi paused slightly, and an embarrassed smile appeared on her face.

She went back to the mountain last week to help with the work. Seeing her uncle and aunt always doing this, she got used to doing the work herself.

Before she could speak...

Chan Kin-kei joked.

"She's just pretending; she's actually just like us."

"You're the one pretending!"

Zhang Xinyi complained, somewhat unconvinced.

The group quickly resumed their conversation.

Lin Qingxue, who had already returned to her seat, heard the commotion behind her.

The breath I had been holding in finally eased.

The noisy ten minutes of break time passed quickly.

Ring ring...

When the school bell rang again.

Lin Qingxue also picked up her book and got up from her seat.

As she turned around, she lowered her head and whispered.

"Want to go to the back and study together?"

"Um?"

Liu Yun, who was eating snacks and still had some chili oil on the corners of her mouth, looked up.

Lin Qingxue calmly pulled a piece of paper from her pocket and handed it over.

"Come on, I'll teach you."

"Okay!"

Liu Yun wiped her mouth, picked up some books, and followed.

Zhang Xinyi glanced at them from a seat in a corner not far away and muttered something to herself.

"Tch, coward, trying to get outside help."

......

Everyone in the class was engrossed in reviewing, and the evening self-study session flew by.

Until the lights in the teaching building were turned off.

The crowd dispersed in a bustling manner.

Girls' dormitory, room 307.

Lin Qingxue returned very early.

She had already washed up and was sitting on her bed.

Instead of opening the desk, she slowly took out a diary from her bag.

She didn't pick up a pen; she didn't want to write.

I just wanted to take a look.

Lin Qingxue turned to the first page.

【2013.5.15】

Today, Ayan questioned me about why I neither accepted nor rejected him, and whether I had ever truly liked him.

......

Lin Qingxue quietly looked at every word she had written.

This is her first diary entry.

Lin Qingxue remembers it clearly; it was the day the monthly exam results were released.

That person who always acted carefree still did poorly on the exam; there was some improvement, but not much.

She was already a bit angry and irritable all morning, and didn't really talk to anyone.

But starting that noon, this person's attitude towards me began to change.

I was already upset at the time.

During evening self-study, Ayan came over again to remind himself.

She felt like her mind was going to fall apart, and the intense emotions were almost tearing her apart.

That's why I bought this diary.

I heard from other people in the dorm that when you're unhappy, writing something down can help you vent and prevent depression.

She had no one to talk to about her own problems, and Ah Yan was still blaming her.

Even that person started ignoring her, although that was exactly what she wanted.

But for some reason, I was just very unhappy.

She was truly at her wit's end...

Lin Qingxue turned the pages one by one.

Looking at the lines of malicious text above.

A figure gradually appeared in her mind.

That person was just as bad as described in the diary.

Same kind of bastard.

Serves you right, who told you to be so irritable these past few days.

Lin Qingxue kept stroking it with her fingers, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

She kept reading until she closed the diary and put it back in her bag.

Click!

The dormitory lights were also turned off.

The entire dormitory building fell completely silent.

Lin Qingxue lay down and covered herself with a thin blanket.

She stared silently at the dark top of the bed frame.

strangeness.

He had already described him as extremely bad.

She knew perfectly well that there was no future with him.

Why...

She still can't stop thinking about him.

Just then.

Tear...

A sound was heard.

Lin Qingxue tilted her head slightly and looked over.

Liu Yun unzipped her pants and peeked her head out.

"Hey, Qingxue, why are you resting so early today?"

"Don't you read with a nightlight on?"

Lin Qingxue turned to the side and whispered.

"Yeah, I'm not watching anymore, I want to sleep for a while."

"oh..."

Liu Yun responded, then looked at her profile and couldn't help but ask again.

"Hey Qingxue, have you and Chen Jianji made up?"

"He didn't talk to you tonight, but he didn't seem to kick you out either."

"We even studied together; you pointed out the question types to him, and he looked at them too."

Upon hearing this...

Lin Qingxue remained silent for a while before speaking softly.

"There's no question of making up or not making up. We're all classmates, and we're doing some intensive review together before the college entrance exam. He doesn't have anything to say."

"Eh?"

Liu Yun blinked, feeling a little strange at her sudden change in tone.

Is it... that you're unhappy?

"That..."

She was about to say something.

Lin Qingxue suddenly interrupted.

"I want to rest."

"Okay."

Liu Yun then looked regretful.

She pulled her head back and zipped the zipper up to the last bit.

Liu Yun called out in a low voice through the gap.

Goodnight, Qingxue. I hope you can get back to your sweet dreams from noon. It's the first time I've seen you smile so happily.

Tear!

The zipper was closed.

Lin Qingxue, who was lying on her side, was startled.

She curled up slightly and after a long while, she replied softly.

"Um."

......
