Rebirth: Growing Up Together

Xu Cheng took a few steps back towards the classroom door in fear.

This...could it be that some hidden gene has been unlocked...

"Where are you going? Come here quickly. I'll help you trim your bangs. Your hair is messy. You have to take graduation photos today, but you didn't go to the barber shop early to get it trimmed." Lin Wanzhou said with a frown.

"..."

Xu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. "It's not messy, it's just that the bangs are a little long. It won't look bad in photos... Besides, the whole grade has to take graduation photos this time, and the barber shop is full of third-year students queuing up. How long will it take?"

"No, today is a very important graduation photo, it has to look good."

Lin Wanzhou looked very stubborn. "Come here quickly. I'll help you fix it. It doesn't look good at all now."

"Uh... can you?"

Xu Cheng sat down in front of her with some hesitation.

"How about you give me the scissors and I can just do a simple repair myself."

As he said this, he reached out towards Lin Wanzhou's scissors.

She gently slapped his hand away and looked at Xu Cheng eagerly.

"No, just leave it to me, I will definitely cut it for you."

Dressing up is a great pleasure for girls. They not only like to dress up themselves, but also like to dress up others. This can be seen from the fact that they particularly like to play dress-up games when they were young.

"Or... you are worried about me?" The girl lowered her eyes slightly and her voice became a little soft.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Xu Cheng had no way to resist.

It doesn't matter. If you want to cut her hair, just give it to her. It's just a little bit of bangs. Even if it's cut into an upside-down Chinese character "Fu", it won't affect her appearance too much.

"Cut it, cut it."

"whee."

The girl stood in front of him, and tried to play with the hair on his forehead with her slender white fingers.

Xu Cheng felt a little itchy because of her teasing and closed his eyes unconsciously.

"Hurry up...we'll be here soon..."

"Got it. It'll be quick. It'll only take a few seconds."

Lin Wanzhou pinched Xu Cheng's bangs with her fingers and carefully trimmed them on his forehead with scissors.

Because they were so close, Xu Cheng could feel her warm breath on his cheek.

There is a refreshing fragrance, like the breeze around the lake, lingering on your cheeks.

And her little hand resting on his forehead felt like a piece of warm jade, cool and very comfortable.

Neither of them spoke, and the classroom was extremely quiet.

For a moment, the only sound was the slight snapping of scissors.

"It's done." Lin Wanzhou said softly.

"Oh."

Is the time so short?

Xu Cheng felt inexplicably lost.

He found some strands of hair on the tip of his nose, which was itchy, and he wanted to raise his hand to rub it.

Lin Wanzhou slapped his hand away again, "Don't move, be careful not to rub it into your eyes, I'll help you blow it out."

She pouted her lips, put them close to his eye sockets, and blew a few breaths gently.

"fu——fu——"

Xu Cheng only felt a few wisps of fragrant breeze as faint as orchid, brushing past his eye sockets, flowing along his cheeks, temples and chin.

In an instant, a tingling and numb feeling filled with electricity covered my whole body, and my heart skipped a beat.

I couldn't help but open my eyes, and in front of me was Lin Wanzhou's delicate face.

The two of them were very close to each other.

When their eyes met, they were all stunned, 1 second, 2 seconds... Before the 3rd second came, they both turned their heads away subconsciously.

Lin Wanzhou's heartbeat couldn't stop accelerating.

She felt like a deer drinking water. As she was drinking, a green crocodile suddenly emerged from the water and looked into her eyes.

He kicked his calves hard and quickly slipped back into the woods.

Almost got eaten by a crocodile!

I suddenly understood why two people have to close their eyes when kissing on TV.

because……

Oh, she didn't understand.

Xu Cheng was also feeling uncomfortable. To ease the embarrassment, he coughed twice and asked.

"Ahem, how's the haircut? Does it look good?"

"Here's a mirror. Look for yourself."

"Not bad, but it seems like this place could use some work..."

Take measures!

Lin Wanzhou clenched her fists tightly. If it were in the past, she would have been angry.

"Then I'll help you cut it again?"

Suddenly I felt like a maid serving a young master.

Dead Xu Cheng.

If this wasn't the last time I took graduation photos with you, I wouldn't bother with you so much...

Chapter 153 I'm leaving tomorrow

It was daybreak, and the tender green grass buds on campus were still covered with wet morning dew.

In the bright and clean classroom, Lin Wanzhou leaned over to help Xu Cheng blow out her hair.

Faintly, I could smell the scent of his white cotton school uniform T-shirt. It was a pleasant smell of laundry detergent, as fresh as daisies in March.

"Is the cut done?"

"Well, okay, let me give you a mirror to look at yourself."

She handed the small mirror she usually used to show off to Xu Cheng. It was a small round mirror with a pink cinnamon dog pattern painted on the back.

"let me see."

Xu Cheng looked at himself in the mirror very attentively. Lin Wanzhou sat on the chair next to him and glanced at him out of the corner of her eye.

She was wearing a white shirt, had a tall and well-proportioned figure, fair cheeks and clear features.

The eyelashes are very thick and long, making the eyes look deep and transparent, like a mysterious morning star.

He is obviously a boy, but he has eyelashes like a girl...

Sometimes I really want to hold his head and carefully count how many there are.

Luzhou is quite far away, will I have the chance to sit next to him like this again in the future?

She is no longer the little girl who never experienced separation when she was 6 years old.

She was so innocent at that time. Separation was just saying goodbye today, but they could still be good friends in kindergarten tomorrow.

Now she has matured and grown up, and has become a very thoughtful girl.

Of course she understood what it meant to say goodbye to someone important.

And Xu Cheng is a very important person!

She was not stupid. She was smart and she always knew that she had an inexplicable feeling for Xu Cheng...

As for what this feeling was, perhaps because they had known each other for too long, she had never been able to figure it out and had not forced herself to think about it.

Anyway, in her perfect life plan, she would only consider things like love and marriage at the age of 29, and these relationships would be slowly sorted out before the age of 29.

She can remain reserved until she thinks it through.

Well... as for inappropriate behaviors such as holding hands and hugging, they do not violate her principle of modesty at all. After all, she and Xu Cheng are childhood sweethearts and are the best friends in the world.

What's wrong with doing these things? It doesn't violate ethics.

Even if it's just kissing, many childhood sweethearts would do it when they were young, right?

Anyway, he is only 15 years old and still in the young age, so there is nothing wrong with a kiss.

The pronoun she was thinking of was indeed "he".

"Hey, hey,!"

Xu Cheng pushed her shoulder.

"…Hmm? What's wrong?"

Lin Wanzhou finally came back to her senses from her wild thoughts.

Sometimes Xu Cheng really couldn’t understand this group of girls. One moment they would nervously ask him to come up and cut his hair, and the next moment they would sit next to him and stare blankly.

She now looks like she just woke up, groggy, with a slightly red face, and an indescribable cuteness in her well-behaved manner.

The snow-white cotton school uniform made her smooth cheeks look particularly attractive, like delicious red apples.

Xu Cheng suppressed the terrible urge to hug her and bite her cheek.

"what are you thinking about?"

"I didn't think about anything..."

Looking at his gaze, Lin Wanzhou felt a little guilty and said with a straight face, "I was thinking about something about salivary amylase."

She now uses some indirect ways when she speaks.

Although what I said may be ambiguous, it is the ambiguity that you cannot understand. If you think wrongly, then blame your own stupid brain!

Xu Cheng did not have any enterprise-level understanding, he just showed concern for her.

"I'm still thinking about biology knowledge points. Do you feel nervous before the exam?"

"No, I'm not nervous..."

"The high school entrance exam score won't have much impact on you anyway, so don't be nervous."

Lin Wanzhou pouted vaguely, "I know, but I don't want to lose to you again in this final high school entrance exam..."

The two of them picked up the loose hair on the floor, locked the door, walked down the corridor one after the other, and then walked down the stairs side by side.

Xu Cheng used to think that people who walked up and down the stairs side by side were annoying and that they must have greasy brains, but after becoming one of them, he felt that it was a really good feeling.

"Xu Cheng, have you ever thought seriously about your future, what industry you want to work in, what you are interested in, etc." Lin Wanzhou suddenly asked.

She was very proud of herself for having thought of this question.

I am indeed a smart and clever person!

As long as you understand his thoughts on the future, even if you were not together in high school, as long as you are moving in the same direction, you may have a chance to be colleagues in the future.

In 07, the old-fashioned youth puppet shows were still popular, such as Garden of Ryusei and My Little Pony... and girls are unique creatures who will be inspired by any small detail.

Lin Wanzhou couldn't help but imagine that many years later, she would be mature, wearing a tight skirt, black stockings, and a small suit, and going on business trips with her colleague Xu Cheng.

At this time, there was only one room left in the hotel, so the two had to stay in the same room. They drank soju together, and their cheeks were flushed. They were drunk and opened their hearts to play the little games they had played since childhood...

Great, it feels like it can be made into a movie!

Xu Cheng raised his head and looked ahead. "What about the future? Sometimes I do think about it. After all, my childhood dreams seem ridiculous when I think back on them now."

"agree."

Lin Wanzhou nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
