I have a lot of green plums

"It's OK." Si Yue Yu Zhi looked at the smiling man in front of him and said, "It's just that there were some unexpected circumstances."

"Was it about you diving to save someone on the first day? Or was it about singing at the fireworks festival? Or was it about the student council election?"

"It seems that the principal understands it very well."

"After all, you are the proudest student of our Tokyo Central University."

"Then did you know that someone is poaching employees from Tokyo Central?"

"What?" Upon hearing this, the man slapped his hands on the table and stood up from his seat unconsciously. His originally calm expression immediately turned unfriendly.

"Those guys are so despicable."

"I agree." Si Yueyuzhi nodded and said, "So don't look for me for this kind of thing in the future."

He really has no interest.

"I see."

With this kind of thing happening, how could he allow the boy to be an exchange student again? This would undoubtedly be like handing over the treasures of his home to the hands of robbers.

"Then I'll go back to class."

Si Yue Yuzhi left the principal's office, but did not return to the classroom immediately. Instead, he went to the teacher's office.

I also have to report to the class teacher that I am back.

He reached out and knocked on the office door, and only opened it and walked in after hearing the consent from inside.

As soon as he entered the door, he was surrounded by a warm body.

"Teacher Igarashi."

Si Yue Yuzhi closed the door calmly, looked around the other areas of the office, and only allowed the other person to hug her after she saw no one else.

"You finally came back."

There was some complaint in Igarashi Suzune's voice, but more of it was happiness.

Unlike those girls, she hadn't seen the boy at all during the ten days he was away. How could she bear it?

"It's a mission."

Siyue Yuzhi also hugged Igarashi Suzune gently, and then let go. Igarashi Suzune also understood what he meant, and reluctantly let her go.

After all, this is still an office and their identities are sensitive. If they hug for too long, they will easily be discovered.

"So, what did you gain from this exchange and study?"

Having resumed her identity as a teacher, Igarashi Suzune sat on the chair and asked seriously.

"No." April Yuzhi shook her head.

"No?" Igarashi Suzune frowned slightly and immediately began to lecture her: "I say, with such a good opportunity, are you just playing around instead of studying hard?"

It really is......

Si Yue Yu Zhi didn't dare to tell the truth, and said expressionlessly: "No, because a lot of things happened, I didn't have time to learn."

"Then you still haven't learned anything? I punish you by making me write a 1,000-word self-criticism."

"..."

Seeing a crack in the boy's expression, Igarashi Suzune stood up and quickly kissed him on the face.

"I was just kidding."

How could she bear to punish the boy in front of her? She just wanted to take this opportunity to say what she had always wanted to do.

She remembered that when he was in elementary school, the boy was often punished by teachers from two classes to write self-criticisms in turn because he often got into trouble.

Looking at the helpless yet doting expressions of Mr. Hanada and Mr. Uesugi, I really wanted to do the same at that time.

Now I finally found an excuse to speak it out.

"Phew, you scared me."

April Yuzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and at that moment the office door was opened.

"April classmate is back? Welcome, welcome."

"How is April-san doing in Shuchiin?"

“I must have learned a lot.”

......

Faced with the questions from the teachers, Si Yue Yu Zhi just smiled and nodded.

When she returned to the classroom, Si Yueyuzhi was naturally welcomed by her classmates again.

Everyone's enthusiasm almost overwhelmed him, and the feeling of being surrounded by so many people made him feel a little elated.

The young man sitting in the seat saw this scene and felt hatred in his heart.

Originally, all these cheers should have been his!

It took April Yuzhi a while to return to his seat from the enthusiastic embrace of his classmates. The familiar place and familiar scenery made him feel that Tokyo Central was indeed better.

But what concerned him was that there was no one behind him.

Did you ask for leave?

Considering that the girl might have asked for leave due to illness, Si Yue Yuzhi did not continue to explore the matter.

The drowsy classes, the noisy lunch breaks, the club activities that were barely going smoothly... everything seemed to have returned to the way it was before.

Before I knew it, another week had passed.

Everything is changing, the only thing that remains unchanged is the table behind him, which is still empty.

"April-san, are you concerned about Sawamura-san?"

While explaining the questions to the girls in the class, Si Yue Yu Zhi's gaze fell on the girl's seat again, and this scene naturally did not escape the attention of the girls in the class.

"Yeah, I do care a little." After being discovered, Si Yue Yuzhi did not feel embarrassed, but nodded generously.

"I knew it."

"After all, Sawamura-san and April-san have a good relationship."

"Why didn't I get along well with April right away? I really hate myself for doing that."

.....Listening to the girls' words, April Yuzhi chuckled and did not answer. After they finished complaining, he asked again: "Yoshida-san, do you know about Sawamura-san's situation?"

He had previously guessed that the girl might have taken a leave because she was not feeling well, but such a long time had passed and she still hadn't come to class.

This made him worried.

He was afraid that the girl was seriously ill, or... thinking of another possibility, Si Yue Yuzhi couldn't help but clench his fists lightly.

"Hey~ I'm glad that April-san can ask me questions, but I really don't know anything about Sawamura-san."

The girl named Yoshida nodded her chin and said, "But I can tell April that Sawamura has not come to school since the fifth day since you went to Shuchiin."

Five days... probably until the night of the fireworks festival.

乁 "I understand." April Yuzhi felt a little heavy-hearted, but still smiled and thanked; "Thank you Yoshida-san."

"No, don't thank me like that."

The girl blushed and waved her hand. She really liked the way the boy smiled and thanked her, but it would be better if it wasn't for another girl.

Without getting any more information, April Yuzhi went to ask Igarashi Suzune.

"Eri did take a long leave." Igarashi Suzune thought for a moment and said, "But she didn't tell me the specific reason."

"Teacher Igarashi doesn't know either?"

"Because the Igarashi family has been very busy recently, I haven't asked for the specific reason."

Although the Igarashi family and the Spencer family have close contacts, they don't know everything. Originally, she wanted to care about the girl, but recently the Igarashi family has been negotiating contracts with several film producers.

Originally, this kind of thing should have nothing to do with her, but her grandfather told her to learn how to negotiate now so that she could assist her husband in the future. So after finishing her work at school, she had to get busy and had no time to visit the Spencer family.

"I understand. Thank you, Mr. Igarashi." April Yuzhi felt even more heavy in his heart.

"I'm glad I could help you."

Igarashi Suzune naturally saw the boy's inner emotions, so she still felt distressed.

During the days when the boy was away, Eriri seemed to be in a bad mood and always stared at the boy's seat in a daze.

She has received complaints from several teachers because of this matter.

But none of this matters. What matters is that she keenly sensed that a rift might have appeared between the boy and the girl.

She didn't know what caused it, but she hoped they could go back to the way they were before.

"Yuzhi, please go see Eriri." Igarashi Suzune requested.

"I see."

In April, Yuzhi agreed.

"Eri, remember to get ready."

"understood."

Hearing the reminder coming from outside the door, the girl in the room responded weakly.

Ying Lili was lying on the bed, still wearing her pajamas. She didn't know how long she had slept that day.

She stayed up all night yesterday to finish the draft and then went to rest. But she had not been sleeping well recently, sleeping for a while and waking up for a while, which made her unable to muster any strength.

What time is it now?

She turned her gaze from the ceiling to the window. The sunlight was blocked by the light-colored curtains, but the reddish light that came through the gap still gave her a hint.

It was probably a little after five o'clock. Since September, the sunset has been coming earlier and earlier.

I guess everyone has finished school, and after participating in club activities, everyone went back home in their groups.

The trains must be very crowded, after all, Tokyo has such a large population.

And he...should have returned a long time ago.

The image of the young boy involuntarily appeared in her mind, and Ying Lili curled up unconsciously, pulling her whole body into the quilt.

As if this would protect her from getting hurt. But after blinking, her eyes turned red unconsciously.

On the first day after the boy left, she thought she could enjoy campus life, but she couldn't help but stare at his seat in a daze.

The next day, she already started to miss him.

On the third day, loneliness had already risen from her heart.

After the fourth day, she finally understood that campus life without him was not as interesting as she had imagined. It turned out that the people she liked were not the so-called school classmates.

On the fifth day, she stopped going to school.

She should be happy that the boy came back, but when she thought of some things, she felt extremely sad.

From a certain moment on, she inevitably drifted away from the boy.

If she was just watching the receding figure as a friend, she might be able to endure it silently, because at least on the surface they were still friends.

However, in my heart, it seems that I don’t just regard the other person as a friend.

Because she had never experienced it before, she didn't know what kind of feeling it was.

However, whenever she thought about watching him drift away from her, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped, stung, and burned.

Therefore, as long as she didn't go to school, she wouldn't see him anymore, and wouldn't feel that he was staying away from her, and she could keep deceiving herself that they were the same as before.

Such a thing...how could it be possible to do it?

She is such a fool.

No matter I was or am now, I am a complete fool.
