How rude, we are pure love!

Qingye was also about to get a ride, and neither of them thought anything was wrong, but at this moment, the middle-aged man suddenly slumped in his chair, slapped his head, and his face was full of shock:

"Oh no! I remembered! I forgot to fill up the gas yesterday, and now I have to go to the gas station again..."

He turned his gaze towards Qingye, as if he was looking at his own hope. His natural expression changes made him look like a seasoned actor full of drama.

——Last time, it was their daughter who was sent by the couple, so this time, let’s give the opportunity to this kid.

Banaijian also looked over, and as if he had thought of something, he poked him with his elbow with a smile.

"Can you give me a ride today?"

"I don't mind...but isn't it snowing outside? If I get caught in the snow, it will affect my condition a little bit," Qingye said.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's just a little snow, and it's not far. We can walk there in less than half an hour."

Banaijian changed from using his elbow to gently bumping him with his body, with a "dong" sound effect beside his lips.

"Let's go." Qingye waved his hand casually, not minding accompanying her for a while.

He walked to the entrance and waited, while Yanaijian ran back to the room to get his schoolbag and bag. While he was waiting, the blue-haired beauty walked to his side and said something gently.

With a click, the girl trotted to his side and took out a sky blue umbrella from the umbrella bucket. Her mother also gave up her seat and watched her from behind with her father.

"Then let's go, Dad, Mom!"

Banaijian changed his shoes, then turned around and waved to them with a bright smile.

"Remember, you are the daughter of the Banaijian family. It's just a mere exam, and it will be easy for you." The middle-aged man said calmly.

"...Dad, you didn't even get into college?" the girl complained.

The old father was sunk.

"Check everything again, Xingcai," said Mom.

"Ah."

“Don’t panic when you encounter a difficult problem. Calm down and think about your usual thinking.”

"Ah."

"Xingcai has worked so hard, there will definitely be no problem."

"……Um!"

Mom and Dad were looking at her gently as usual, patiently reminding her of every detail, word by word. For some reason, standing here and looking at her parents, her eyes became warm and a surge of emotions surged in her heart.

Mom and Dad, thank you. I've really caused you so much trouble over the past year. Thank you for supporting me. Thank you for giving me everything I need to pursue my goals with determination.

When everything is over, even if you no longer remember it, I will definitely treasure all the memories in my heart bit by bit.

The girl lowered her head deeply.

And Qingye just watched all this with a gentle look.

After the two disappeared from the door, the father and mother were still staring at the door, as if there was a very precious treasure there that was worth them continuing to look at, and the expressions on their faces seemed calm and peaceful.

After a long time, a soft sigh echoed in the room.

"Youth."

*

When Banaijian pushed open the door, the snow on the eaves fell down and the girl subconsciously shrank her neck.

The two looked up and saw a light snow rain falling from the sky. The girl stretched out her hand and caught a piece of falling snow. Before she looked down, the snowflake had already melted.

"Let's go. Although we have plenty of time, it would be terrible if something unexpected happened along the way."

Qingye and the girl held up an umbrella together.

"Are you cold?" Qingye glanced at her.

"It's warm." The girl moved closer to him.

He adjusted the angle of the umbrella, looked into her eyes, and said softly:

"It's fine."

"..."

The girl was stunned for a moment, then she just laughed and jogged like a primary school student, her laughter carrying far away.

Crunching, clear footprints, one big and one small, were left on the snow-covered road.

Walking side by side with the boy like this, looking at his profile, the strange emotions deep in her heart made her speak involuntarily:

"Kiyono-kun, this is the first time I have something I want to do no matter what."

The self who always goes with the flow.

"At the beginning, I wanted to sink into the world of food and forget everything many times. However, Qingye-kun has been moving forward, Xiaoju and Lemon have been making progress, so I can't stay where I am."

You have been watching over me and giving me courage.

“Now, I worked my way up to here.”

"So, next time—"

Emotions turn into syllables and roll between teeth.

"I will walk to your side with a proud smile on my face."

Why...it sounds like we're saying goodbye?

Qingye, who was listening silently, stopped and stared at her, feeling inexplicably sad.

He also thought a lot about the future.

This might be the first time he felt this way—the feeling of being separated from someone important.

After this, can we really meet again?

If we really meet again, can we spend the same time as we do now?

The Banaijian at that time was no longer the Banaijian that I knew.

She still loves to eat and spends all her pocket money on snacks, but she no longer shares them with others.

She is still innocent, lively and cheerful, but she will no longer reveal her gentle heart to him.

Even if we met by chance on the street, she would no longer wave to me with a smile on her face - not only her, but other people, other girls too.

He understood Ba Nai Jian's feelings...

Huh? No, that's not right.

Qingye suddenly fell into deep thought. Wasn't that what Banaijian meant? From Banaijian's perspective, this was just a college entrance exam, not a life-or-death separation! He didn't understand it at all!

At this time, Banaijian took a few steps forward and turned in front of him.

"See you in the sunshine tomorrow."

She smiled like the clear summer sky, stretched out her finger and pointed it at him.

The road to the examination room soon came to an end.

Before we knew it, the light snow had stopped, and the snow on the roads and roofs looked very crystal clear.

"That's about it."

Ba Naijian exhaled lightly, and saw that the examination room was not far ahead. He could see many examinees wrapped in scarves and with serious expressions around him.

"Okay...but first, change your shoes."

Qingye's voice came, and Yanaijian followed the boy's gaze and looked at her shoes - after walking on the snow for a while, her shoes were inevitably stained with some snow and water.

"It's very uncomfortable if your shoes get wet."

Qingye took out a replacement pair of shoes and new socks from his bag. These were given to him by Yanaijian's mother. He pointed to a seat nearby.

"Go change over there."

The blue-haired girl blinked, then obediently sat on the bench and took off her shoes and socks.

"Na."

She stared at Qingye, smiled and said, "Can you help me change it?"

"It's almost time, can't you move faster..." The kind-hearted boy could only play the role of an old father, quickly squatting down and putting cotton socks on her.

Just think of it as your final sacrifice.

The boy held her feet, and she could see his serious face by lowering her head slightly. The warm heat made the girl's face secretly hot.

This kind of mood... should be good for the exam.

"Okay, okay! I'm fully charged!" The girl put on her shoes and clenched her fists.

"A robot?" Qingye accompanied her.

The snow wind blew, and time passed by little by little. It was soon time to enter the examination room.

Banai took a look and saw that even though they were still outside the examination room, they all looked like they were ready to kill someone, which made her nervous as well.

"for you."

The boy's hand suddenly appeared in front of her, with a pink candy lying quietly in his palm. Banaijian lowered her head and subconsciously took it from the boy's palm. This was her favorite strawberry flavor.

"After eating this, you will feel less nervous." Qingye said with a smile.

The girl's hands tightened along with her heart.

Then, a candy-like smile bloomed.

"Ok!"

She couldn't wait to open it and put it in her mouth.

Is this a role reversal? She waved happily and ran into the examination room.

"wait for me."

*

Yanaijian sat in a corner of the examination room and looked around. The Waseda classroom was surprisingly quiet. There was only the sound of paper and pen rubbing against each other and slightly heavy breathing. Every candidate had a heavy face.

This is a fork in the road of life.

Whether their hard work day after day will be rewarded, whether their dreams can be realized... everything will be decided on this day. From then on, no matter success or failure, they will move from young students to maturity.

Banaijian feels that she is far from mature, but she will try her best to pursue it.

"start!"

The examiner's cold voice exploded in everyone's ears. At this moment, everyone straightened their backs as if they were holding swords.

let's start.

As if to embellish the pages of life, she slowly lowered the pen tip.

*

When she came to her senses, all the test papers had been submitted.

Was the question difficult? How did I perform? Did I make any mistakes? Can I pass it?

She didn't think about the thoughts that an ordinary candidate should have at all. There was only one thought left in her mind.

Inform him of the result with a smile.

And at the moment this thought came to mind.

She was suddenly stunned.

Banaijian subconsciously turned his head and through the classroom window, he saw an incomparably magnificent scene reflected in the girl's azure eyes - countless star-like particles slowly floated up and rose into the sky, and the rainbow-like light beam was extremely warm.

The world is ending.
