Ding Xiuxiuâs scrunched up her face. âAppendicitisâ¦Iâm going to die, right? Iâm definitely dying, right?â
Ye Xi smiled and said nothing.
The rest of them were all relieved.
After going through life and death together for a day, you could say they were friends even if the hadnât formed a deep bond yet.
Ding Xiuxiu laid down in bed and pulled up her blanket, curling up inside. She looked out at the sky and said, âIâm like a cloud in the sky right now. Iâll disappear at any moment. Iâll disappearâ¦and be forgotten.â
Then, a tear rolled down her face.
After comforting her, they all laughed.
Ding Xiuxiu ignored them and kept on lamenting about her âremainingâ lifespan.
Dongfang Yu couldnât listen to this anymore and took the lead in saying goodbye.
After some discussion, the rest of them called Ding Xiuxiuâs parents to tell her the situation. After her parents arrived, they headed back to school.
On the way back, Ye Xi hailed a cab instead of following Weisheng Lan.
She really couldnât understand why Weisheng Lan wonât put away his ability. This is troubling for her, okay?
She was the type that liked to stay silent to begin with, and she liked thinking about things in her mind, secretly enjoying herself. But itâs embarrassing now that thereâs a guy whoâs heard everything, okay?
Whatâs more, humans are creatures who need some secrets, otherwise thereâs no mysteriousness anymore, okay?
Also, itâs only fun if she was the only person who got to entertain her strange thoughts!
But the most important thing is, there are countless thoughts that may run through a personâs mind that even they arenât aware of. No matter how you look at it, it didnât feel safe to have that overheard by someone else.
Itâs like walking naked on the streets. Itâs terrifying.
Itâs like eating instant noodles without the seasoning. Itâs just hard.
Like if the sun was in the sky while it was raining. Itâs just strange, right?
Ye Xi couldnât accept this feeling, so she could only stay away.
Weisheng Lan was a little depressed about this. He thought that Ye Xi would have been able to accept this well.
Luo Nuanfeng asked, âHad a fight?â
Luo Nuanfeng looked how aggrieved Weisheng Lan looked and interjected, âSeems like it.â
Weisheng Lan kept a straight face. âHush.â
Once they reached school, Weisheng Lan waited for Ye Xi at the school gates while Nangong Hai took over as the driver and drove towards the dorms.
About five minutes later, Ye Xiâs cab arrived at the school gates. When he saw her get off, Weisheng Lan immediately went over.
The first thing she saw after getting off was Weisheng Lan who was approaching her. Ye Xiâs first reaction was to calculate the distance between them, and the second was to move away.
Weâll talk after Iâm twenty meters away.
While thinking about that, she started sprinting a bit quicker towards Weisheng Lan, passed him, and ran inside the school. Only after running about ten or so meters, she finally stopped.
Ye Xi looked back and saw Weisheng Lan standing in the distance where he stood with a straight face. She couldnât make out what he was thinking, but Ye Xi could feel that he was a little sad.
After a moment of silence, Ye Xiâs heart began to feel an inexplicable sense of pain. She didnât like how things were right now.
The two of them looked at each other about a dozen meters apart.
Ye Xi took out her phone and called Weisheng Lan.
Weisheng Lan took out his phone and accepted the call.
Ye Xi chuckled and said, âIâ¦â
She wanted to say something, but she forgot what she wanted to say after the first word. Maybe there was nothing she wanted to say at all. She just felt that she needed to communicate with Weisheng Lan a little.
Weisheng Lanâs side was silent for a moment. Unable to receive a continuation of her sentence, he asked, âDo you hate me?â
Ye Xi shook her head. âNo.â
Weisheng Lan then asked, âThen, do you like me?â
Ye Xi, ââ¦â
What on earth?
