A Young Woman's Heart

It's like a lottery; you can't see the filling from the outside of the box. You have to open it and look at the label on the plastic wrapping.

Even in the mundane routine of life, we need these little surprises.

"What flavor is Xiaoyao?" Wang Jiale asked, shaking his mooncake box.

"Little Yaoyao is fruity!" Hua Yinyin said with certainty, "Fresh flower and fruit flavor!"

"Do you have mooncakes in that flavor...?" Mo Xueyao picked up the fried yellow croaker from the plate, somewhat speechless, and ate it, bones and all.

Wang Jiale, sitting opposite, was still spitting out fish bones.

"Huh? I was talking about Xiaoyaoyao's taste~!" Hua Yinyin blinked.

Lu Chengyuan leaned closer and jokingly asked, "Have you tried it?"

"Hmph, of course! When I sleep with Xiaoyaoyao, we've done this kind of thing, that kind of thing, and that kind of thing!"

"Don't say things that are easy to misunderstand!" Mo Xueyao quickly snatched the fried pork belly from Hua Yinyin's bowl. "This is punishment."

"Waaah... my pork belly..." Hua Yinyin's face immediately scrunched up, but she quickly lowered her voice and deliberately said, "Eating this will make you gain five pounds!"

"whispering sound--!"

“Mine is the five-nut flavor…” Wang Jiale opened his mooncake box and glanced at it. “Never mind, I’ll just swap with the idiot later.”

"What if Lu Bolun's is also five-nut?"

"Then let's steal Silver's food!"

"Ugh, I won't give it to you, mine is red bean paste~ How about it, little Yao Yao, do you want it? If you happen to get a five-nut one, I might reluctantly trade with you!"

"Let's talk about it later. I want to open it after I finish eating." Mo Xueyao put her mooncake box into her pocket.

"Sister...mine is the five-nut one..." Mo Zhuyou said to Mo Xiaoxiao with a mournful face.

"Here, take mine." Her older sister smiled, patted her head, and handed her her hers. "Mine is egg yolk flavored."

"Wow, this is delicious! My sister is the best! Hehe."

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoxiao smiled helplessly. In fact, from childhood to adulthood, every time she ate, she always gave her younger sister the food she liked.

"Ugh, Lele is wasting food again." Mo Xueyao said disdainfully as she looked at Wang Jiale, who was about to leave after eating only half of her food.

"I... I can't eat anymore! Besides, eating too much will make me fat, so it's better not to eat at all."

“If we don’t waste food, where will the swill come from to feed the pigs?” Lu Chengyuan, who was standing next to her, started spouting nonsense.

Mo Xueyao glanced at them sideways, picked up her empty plate, and walked towards the cafeteria entrance.

The classroom was still a bit lively right after lunch, since everyone was coming back to put their chopsticks and spoons away.

Aishuer stood up so that Mo Xueyao could go inside.

She looked at the tarot cards on the table and said to Mo Xueyao, "Something special will happen to you today."

"What's going on? Is it good luck?"

"I don't know, maybe we'll get mooncakes with unique flavors."

"Really? Come to think of it, I haven't opened the mooncakes yet." Mo Xueyao muttered as she put down the cutlery, finally deciding to open the mooncakes to take a look. "Ah—wow, what flavor is this?"

"Let me see, let me see?" Hua Yinyin immediately came over. Although she was in another group, she paid special attention to Mo Xueyao's movements.

"It's pork floss and ham flavored."

"Wow, I don't think anyone has ever gotten this before!"

“It seems to be a very rare flavor.” Wang Jiale nodded. “Xiaoyao, let’s trade… that idiot got the five-nut flavor too…”

Lu Bolun, standing to the side, chuckled and scratched his head.

"Of course I have to eat this rare flavor myself." Mo Xueyao wanted to save it for a snack after the second class in the afternoon, but seeing the expectant looks on everyone's faces, she had no choice but to open the package and divide it into eight small pieces with a spoon, which she then distributed to everyone.

Huang Yuxi also got a piece, and he divided it in half and handed it to Sanhua Tongjue.

The ham and pork floss flavored mooncake doesn't seem particularly special; the main part is moist pork floss, and the rest is ham.

It's called ham, but the taste is not much different from that of a sausage.

Luckily, we've already eaten, so we don't need to eat too much; just a taste will do.

At most, it just means there won't be any snacks to eat later.

"Okay, Yaoyao, I'll give you my red bean paste mooncake later~" Hua Yinyin seemed to notice the slight disappointment in her eyes, so she patted her shoulder to comfort her, "Let's go to the band room now!"

The lunch break is quite long, which is perfect for band practice.

Although Mo Xueyao would rather use this time to do the homework assigned in the morning.

But it seems I can only sneak back to the classroom during PE class to write it.

Of course, you can also do it during art class. There are quite a few elective classes today, so there's no need to worry about not finishing your homework.

The sun is shining brightly outside the window; it looks like we'll be able to see the moon tonight. Hopefully, it won't be obscured by clouds...

Mo Xueyao walked to the classroom door with her water bottle, but was suddenly stopped by a boy behind her.

Yang Yankai had rough, dark skin, not the kind of wheat-colored black, but a muddy black, as if he hadn't showered for days. Some parts of his skin were also slightly red, as if he had an allergic reaction.

He was originally the computer class representative, but there are no computer classes this year, so he went from being a class officer to an ordinary student.

Although the class representative for computer class doesn't always act like a class representative.

"Mo Xueyao...?"

"what happened?"

"Uh..." Yang Yankai nervously pulled his right hand out of his pocket and stared at Mo Xueyao's palm, asking, "Can we... shake hands?"

"Shake hands? Why?" Although she was puzzled, it was just a small matter, so she still extended her hand.

"May I?"

"Hmm, whatever."

Upon hearing this, Yang Yankai hurriedly grasped Mo Xueyao's hand.

His hands were large and rough, covered with calluses, like those of someone who often did heavy physical labor.

Mo Xueyao didn't know what he was holding, but he seemed particularly excited.

"Uh, thank you!"

"Hmm." Mo Xueyao nodded, looking at her palms with a puzzled expression; they were still clean.

Although his hands were dark, they weren't dirty.

"You succeeded?" Kazami Yu patted him hard on the shoulder as he walked back.

"Hey……"

They're probably playing some kind of game, like the loser has to do something or something.

Mo Xueyao glanced at them indifferently, then turned and walked out of the classroom.

Having been a man for so many years, if I still don't understand men's little thoughts, then I've lived in vain.

"How does Mo Xueyao's hand feel to touch?" Kazami Yu, who had been gloating just moments before, was now filled with envy and jealousy.

"It's soft... and feels very small."

"what……"

"If you want to give it a try, go find her yourself."

"No, no..."

“You guys are too weak. Just wait, I can still touch her face!” Liu Xiaowei volunteered and stood up.

"just you?"

The boys looked at him with disdain.

If we're talking about which boy in the class is the least popular, it's undoubtedly him.

It's only because Yukong High School has a good school spirit that Liu Xiaowei, who is always sloppy, might have become a target of bullying in other schools.

It's not like it is now. Although I'm not popular with the girls, at least I get along well with the boys.

"Mo Xueyao, wait a minute!"

"What's wrong now?" Mo Xueyao turned her head and looked at Liu Xiaowei, whose hair was covered with dandruff.

"Let's play a game, rock-paper-scissors. The loser gets their cheek pinched."

"Ugh, your face is so oily, I'm not interested."

"Why are you so sure you'll win? Come on, let's settle this in one round!"

"..." Mo Xueyao lowered her eyelids and threw rock, which won against his scissors. "Okay, I won, but I don't want to play anymore. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."

"Ah, uh..."

"Haha, Liu Xiaogou, you're no good!"

"Damn it, why are you calling me a puppy again?"

"Who told you to keep cheating?"

"Damn it, when the hell have I ever cheated?"

Meanwhile, Liu Xiaowei and the other boys started laughing and joking, while Mo Xueyao and the others had already gone downstairs.

"Xiaoyao is very popular," Wang Jiale joked.

"My little Yaoyao is a big star!"

"Celebrity my foot!"

"Didn't you know? Your photos have been uploaded outside of school!"

"what?"

"Maybe they have a fan club or something~"

“I don’t want that kind of thing.” Mo Xueyao, who disliked being in the spotlight, rolled her eyes. “I hate it when a lot of people are paying attention to me.”

"Things like that can't be avoided, right? Who can blame you when you're so dazzling, Yaoyao?" Hua Yinyin put her hand on her shoulder. "After the band's performance, Yaoyao, you might have even more fans!"
