All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

Jiang Tang's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

He slowly picked up a piece of fish and placed it on Shixue's plate. The fish was still steaming hot and juicy.

"As you know, this is my relationship with An Qianxi... Besides, have you ever seen anyone take out their treasured possessions to show off to others?"

"I'm not afraid of thieves stealing from me, but I'm afraid of thieves eyeing my

Zhou Zhitu saw through the fake relationship between Jiang Tang and An Qianxi, hence Jiang Tang's response.

That's true; how could someone who's renting a boyfriend possibly show their normal romantic relationship to others?

But that sentence...

“A treasured possession…” Zhou Zhitu’s expression remained unchanged, at most shifting from the surprise of meeting a classmate to a vague blessing for Ye Shixue.

"I really envy you. Jiang is a well-known model boyfriend at school. Although it was a fake relationship... I'm sure the tenderness and happiness he gave you behind the scenes was no less than what he showed in public."

Do girls have the ability to create a fake friendship at any time?

In the blink of an eye, Shi Xue and Zhou Zhitu became close friends.

"My name is Ye Shixue. Are you... Jiang Tang's classmate?"

"I'd say we're... friends," Zhou Zhitu said tentatively.

Jiang Tang did not refute, which means he acknowledged Zhou Zhitu as a "friend".

Although his true friendships have long since dissipated in the torrent of time.

Wu Zhao, a short-haired, dashing boy, was someone Jiang Tang often played with when they were young. Their fathers knew each other and were about the same age.

I remember once when he came to my house and stayed overnight, Wu Zhao even joked, "If Jiang Tang were a girl, I would marry you."

This provoked a retort from Jiang Tang.

"If you were a girl, I'd like to see who's unlucky enough to marry you... What! Ouch!"

Suddenly, Wu Zhao threw a pillow at Jiang Tang, who was completely unresponsive, hitting him squarely in the head.

Then she buried her face in the blanket and ignored him.

Did he say something wrong? The young Jiang Tang couldn't understand.

But... if they don't want to talk to me, so be it, hmph.

The two fell asleep back to back, one deep in thought, the other fast asleep.

A quiet night that doesn't exist in memory, an embrace unknown to anyone.

Why did the two drift further and further apart as they grew older, until they finally lost contact?

Wu Zhao, you've left my side too.

Just like her.

……

"Oishi! (Delicious!)"

Shi Xue, with a victorious expression, enjoyed the fish that her host had just placed on her plate.

Especially as I watched the departing figure of a certain girl, every bite I took was filled with heartfelt joy.

"Are you and her very familiar, young master?"

"Zhou Zhitu? Just a top student."

023 Concert Entrance

In people's minds, the top two students in the grade always seem to have some kind of story to happen to meet people's expectations.

But to be frank, Jiang Tang said that he and Zhou Zhitu had very little interaction.

To his slight surprise, Zhou Zhitu actually appeared in such a place and took the initiative to greet him.

She is countless times more beautiful than when she was in school, and she is stunning.

Or perhaps she was hiding her beauty in the past to avoid being disturbed by some troublemakers while studying.

The two were not meant to be, but their academic achievements brought them together.

Perhaps Zhou Zhitu was just curious about her college entrance exam results.

Tianfu University is one of the top universities in China, and it might be within her consideration.

However, Jiang Tang still didn't know how she had arranged her rental relationship with An Qianxi that day.

It's obvious at a glance.

In a corner of the seafood buffet restaurant, Zhou Zhitu sat quietly at a single table, sipping fruit tea and gazing at the swarms of people outside the glass window.

The bound crabs struggled in the dish, their shells tapping against the porcelain plate, drawing Zhou Zhitu's attention. She turned around, smiling and gazing affectionately at the fresh ingredients before her.

He picked up the knife and fork, muttering to himself.

"The pain will stop soon..."

She didn't put the whole thing into the hot soup.

Instead, it is secured with a silver fork, and cuts are made one after another until the crab's eight legs are chopped off and distributed around the crab's body, like some kind of detachable and reassembleable toy.

Then there was a pair of large, blue claws.

Chop, chop...

The crab's eyeballs were bulging out completely, as if they were about to fall out.

Undoubtedly, it can feel pain.

If that's the case, then you must be able to feel the love that fills your heart, right?

A fondness for food, and a craving for crab meat.

Will it be happy? The crab's heart is in this area... Will it beat as fast as a person's?

It's alright, it's alright, because soon—stab

It will stop jumping.

Pull out the silver knife and pour the crab legs, claws, and body into the boiling hot pot, making a sizzling sound.

The feeling while waiting was relaxed and pleasant.

The pale blue crab blood on the plate oxidized upon contact with the air, gradually turning a light blue color.

Is this what liking someone is?

A fondness for food, a fondness for people.

Ultimately, it all transforms into a greedy appetite, manifesting as a thirsty drooling that makes one want to devour the other person whole.

Is this what liking someone is?

……

When I left the seafood buffet restaurant, it was already dusk, with the sky turning a pale blue.

The city lights up with dazzling neon lights, making one feel as if they are in a country where the sun never sets.

"My life is like walking in the white night."

Jiang Tang whispered softly, tightening his grip on Shi Xue's hand.

The concert was held in a famous stadium in Chengdu, not far from the restaurant. As a post-dinner stroll, Jiang Tang and Ye Shixue walked there leisurely.

Holding hands, their shadows are intertwined.

He suddenly remembered that the number of times he had taken a walk hand in hand with An Qianxi in the past could be counted on one hand.

The last time was on the last night of the week before the college entrance examination.

The two strolled on the playground, where there were no other people or extraneous glances, chatting about trivial matters.

They should have returned to a normal, unrelated relationship.

But why did it take so long to travel around just by holding hands?

"What are you thinking about, young master?"

"I was thinking that Qiu Lengyan is so beautiful, Shixue, aren't you afraid that I'll become her fan and get jealous?"

How can lies be told so easily?

"Hmph, how could a big star like her have anything to do with the young master!"

"Ha, woman, you've successfully piqued my interest in Qiu Lengyan."

"Yamete! ...Didn't Young Master not follow celebrities?!"

Shixue sensed something was wrong and immediately feigned pitifulness to gain sympathy.

The young master's charm is undeniable, a stunning quality that even idol stars cannot match, so Shi Xue was truly uneasy and uncertain.

What if Qiu Lengyan really does take a liking to the young master?

In that case, I'll really be shooting myself in the foot.

Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the stadium, where a large crowd had already gathered, and those with tickets were entering in an orderly manner.

Scalpers were constantly weaving through the crowd, trying to sell the Qiu Lengyan concert tickets they had snatched, which were several times more expensive.

Does the autumn chill really have such great magic?

Jiang Tang, who had never paid much attention to the entertainment industry, became curious.

Looking at the tall, classically beautiful woman on the poster, I felt a strange sense of familiarity.

Jiang Tang vaguely remembered something, then couldn't help but shake his head.

Impossible. How could a big star like him come alone to participate in gene matching?

That glimpse of the beautiful woman with the black lotus in my memory has finally faded from my mind.

Unable to resist Shi Xue's coquettishness, Jiang Tang bought glow sticks and light-up cat ear headbands outside the gymnasium. He then took her arm and they entered the gymnasium in an orderly fashion.

The two tickets are for seat 11 in Building A and seat 12 in Building A.
