How rude, we are pure love!

In order to avoid showing an embarrassing expression in front of his parents, Banaijian took a deep breath, exhaled, then straightened up and looked at his father.

“I’m going to be an editor!”

She no longer had any confusion.

Then, she no longer needs to embellish her words or act pretentiously, nor does she need to be afraid of difficulties. It is enough for her to let her parents know her determination. She knows that they will help her unconditionally.

The reason why her father has always been against her is probably because he is examining her inner self - if she doesn't even have this little courage, how can she succeed?

There was a long silence.

Her father looked at her and gradually revealed a gentle smile.

Most people have the impression that high school life in Japan is wonderful.

The school has a high degree of freedom, school ends early, and there is a strong community atmosphere. Children have enough time to do what they like and enrich themselves in their spare time. Many people work or go to ordinary universities after graduating from high school. Because of this, students' understanding of common sense and academic qualifications are generally low on average. After graduating in a hurry, their lives are fixed here.

This is an elite society. If you really want a good career and get into an enviable university, the effort, hard work, and heart-wrenching suffering you have to endure are no less than in any other country.

He hopes that his daughter can spend her beautiful youth in ease and also wants her to have a stable and secure future.

Now, my daughter has firmly chosen this path which is more painful but has a brighter future.

So, all the father can do is to support her with all his strength.

For a moment, heartache, emotion, relief, all kinds of complex emotions surged into my heart.

Thousands of thoughts finally turned into a gentle word.

"Just try your best, Xingcai."

"--Um!"

Seeing that Qingye was in such high spirits that he couldn't stop, Banai took the initiative to drag Qingye outside for a walk.

"The sky is so beautiful tonight."

As night falls, the stars and the full moon seem to be within reach.

The blue-haired girl raised her head, and the bright, clear night sky was reflected in her sky-blue eyes, as if it was sparkling.

"Congratulations." Qingye smiled and subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her head, but finally retracted it.

“It feels so unreal…”

The entire road was paved with starlight. Banaijian ran two quick steps to the front of Qingye, then turned around, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly backwards with a smile on his face.

The moment you decide your future is a very strange feeling. It's like you're relieved, but also lonely, as if you're carrying something heavy on your back.

The only thing that is certain is that she will no longer be confused.

Just run along the established path.

Even if you fail, no matter how many times you fail, you must do it.

She is now walking on the same path as Qingye, and when she sees that dazzling boy again, she will no longer feel sad, upset, or uncomfortable in her chest. Instead, she can walk forward with her head held high and her chest held high, just like this strong and gentle man.

To become like him.

When I think of this, I become happy.

"Maybe I'll become the most popular editor in Tokyo in the future."

"Now it's fantasy time."

“How much money can you make by producing a bestselling author?”

"Let's get into college first..."

"Thank you." The girl said suddenly.

"This is a choice you made yourself. There is no need to attribute it all to me. With or without me, you will eventually move forward straight like you are now." Qingye said softly.

The gentle night breeze blew towards Mingri. Under the night sky, Banaijian looked at the boy's face carefully, and his figure was reflected clearly in his pupils.

Ten years from now, will I be able to stand next to you with my head held high?

"Summer vacation starts tomorrow. Cherish these last beautiful moments in your life, little ones!"

Teacher Gan Xia shouted loudly at the podium.

Don’t make it sound like others are about to die—Qingye complained along with the other classmates.

"Oh, yes, there's one more thing I need you to do."

The petite female teacher smiled and said, "Two people will stay after school to clean the pool today. Do you want a democratic system of drawing lots, or do you want me to be the dictator?"

There was a moment of silence in the classroom.

Many students looked at each other, and saw resistance on each other's faces. In this silent silence, suddenly a pair of slender arms shining with light were raised.

"Teacher! Since no one wants to do it, let Qingye-kun and I clean it!"

Banaijian's pretty face was filled with compassion, and at this moment she was like the Virgin Mary!

The other students looked delighted and couldn't help but applaud enthusiastically, but Qingye remained expressionless.

"Are you two planning to do something bad secretly?" the unmarried female teacher suddenly asked.

"No, no!" Banaijian slammed the table.

I, I don't think it's entirely wrong, right? Xiaoju in the corner sneered silently.

Are Banana and Aqing alone in the swimming pool? Lemon pondered.

"Go ahead and do it if you want. There's no one there anyway." The female teacher waved her hand lazily. "Then I'll leave the work to you two. Remember to go to the office later to get the cleaning tools."

What the hell is going on... Qingye, who received a task for no reason, was speechless. He is no longer the best employee who always works diligently!

*

With the ringing of the school bell, summer vacation officially arrived.

The warm sun shone down, and a slightly melancholic atmosphere permeated the classroom. Teacher Gan Xia was right. This was indeed the last relaxing summer vacation in their lives. Next year, when they graduated, they would never have time to relax like they did now.

At this time, even Hui Jiayuan, who usually didn't want to stay in the classroom for a moment, lingered and didn't leave his seat, as if he was repeatedly savoring this last moment of relaxation.

Qingye didn't think too much about it - anyway, he could go to high school again or even several times in the future, so winning was a big deal!

He and Banaijian went to the office, got special cleaning supplies, and then went to the school swimming pool.

"Isn't this quite clean?" Qingye muttered.

The bottom of the swimming pool, which had been drained of water in advance, was extremely blue, with some water still remaining at the bottom, reflecting a crystal clear and cool light under the sun, which reminded people of summer.

"Qingye-kun, wait here for a moment while I go buy some snacks!"

Banai put down the bucket and floor brush and ran away, leaving Qingye with a look of surprise.

Looking at the girl's disappearing back, Qingye's surprise turned into a sneer.

This old man has been getting more and more outrageous recently.

It's time to give her some loving education.

While secretly planning something in his heart, Qingye rolled up his trouser legs helplessly and simply started cleaning from the top.

After a while, Banaijian came back with a plastic bag.

"Ah... wait for me. I want to clean up with you when I come back." The girl put down the plastic bag full of snacks, tied her hair into a high ponytail that he often saw in the restaurant before, and took off her shoes and black cotton socks.

Qingye glanced at her. The girl happened to be standing in front of him, holding a faucet hose in her hand and spraying the edge of the swimming pool. Because there was a lot of clean water sprayed, her round and slender thighs and feet were covered with crystal water droplets, and the hem of her skirt was also wet. This unintentional revelation of the girl's inexplicable sexiness.

But she herself is not aware of this.

Qingye lowered his head from time to time until every corner of the swimming pool was clean. He suddenly met the eyes of Banaijian who turned back and coughed lightly.

They both tossed their buckets aside and sat down. The sky had already darkened before they knew it. A faint whistle could be heard from the playground.

"worn out."

"Aqing, has your physical strength decreased a lot recently?" Banaijian imitated Lemon's tone.

...Qingye had nothing to say. He had been sitting at home all day during this period. It was impossible for him to have good physical strength.

"Here." Banaijian took out a bottle of orange juice from a plastic bag and threw it to him.

Qingye reached out to take it and drank half the bottle in one breath.

The girl also picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank it with relish. She was standing at the highest point of the swimming pool. The setting sun was beside her, illuminating her profile, long eyelashes, and the sweat running down her neck, all of which were dazzling.

It looks like a CG picture...

Looking at it this way, the work done in these two or three hours can be considered as the prelude to the plot?

Qingye thought.

"Come and eat!" The girl quickly opened the snacks again, and Qingye looked helpless.

Crunch, crunch. Yanaijian bit the tip of the chocolate, looked toward the horizon, and said in a clear voice, "I always feel... I miss it so much."

She turned her head and smiled at the boy.

"It was like this when we were working, right?"

It seems like they are talking about something that happened a long time ago.

I spent a long time there.

Last summer vacation.

It’s summer vacation now.

At last……

Qingye raised his eyebrows and teased her, "Why are you feeling sad?"

The girl just looked at him and smiled, and slowly, Qingye unconsciously avoided her sight.

Banaijian put down the snacks, stood up, and walked towards him barefoot in the water, finally stopping right behind him.

The moist cherry-colored lips moved slightly.

"Qingye-kun, stand up, but don't look back yet."

The voice seemed unusually charming.

What... is this rhythm?

Is it the classic scene where you turn around and see the girl kissing you? Or is it the more moderate one where you get hugged from behind?

But no matter what it was, it was too sudden! He wasn't mentally prepared!

Qingye's throat moved unconsciously and he slowly stood up. At this time, he could already feel the refreshing breath coming from the girl behind him, which was the smell of summer.

Then--

"Hey!"

The corners of Ba Nai Jian's mouth turned up into a sly smile. She reached out and gently pushed his back.

Caught off guard, Qingye staggered forward two steps and fell into the swimming pool with a splash, causing a splash. Since there was still water at the bottom of the pool, it didn't feel like he had fallen completely in.

"You've been fooled, you dreamy little senior." The girl said with a smile.

Qingye, whose feet were in the water, turned around and looked at Banaijian above with a cold expression.

At this time, the sun gradually set, and the ultramarine night made the girl's expression a little blurred.

Let’s set off fireworks, the girl suddenly said.

"Where did the fireworks come from?" Qingye rolled his eyes.

Seeing this, Banai snorted with satisfaction, untied her ponytail, and like a magician, pulled out a firework stick and lighter from her uniform pocket and threw them into the bottom of the swimming pool.

"There's water here, idiot! Is your head flooded with water too?"

Qingye hurriedly tried to catch it, but the firework stick still fell down and got wet.

"Can this still be lit?"

He tried it and failed.
