Reborn and awakened, this time I won't be a love-struck fool.

"Then let's go."

Usugi smiled slightly. "This is already the worst possible outcome."

Lin Wu was persuaded.

She rubbed her hands nervously. "Then you go back first, I'll go find him."

"...Okay." Bo Shan patted her shoulder. "This..."

She had meant to bark "Woof woof," but realized it was inappropriate and swallowed the words back. "I'll take this puppy back to you."

"Okay." Lin Wu looked touched and snuggled closer to her. "Shanshan, you're so kind."

After Bo Shan left, Lin Wu stood in front of Xu Jingwang's house for a while, then paced back and forth.

Would it be too strange to knock on the door now?

It was a little awkward.

At this age, saving face is of paramount importance. Lin Wu hesitated, arms crossed, until someone came out from inside.

She was startled, turned around, and saw a nanny carrying trash.

The nanny recognized her immediately, having seen her before. "Miss Lin, are you here to see our young master?"

Lin Wu nervously cracked her knuckles, "Um... um!!!!!"

The first sound was weak and feeble.

The second tone was very firm.

The nanny smiled and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go call the young master right away."

"it is good."

Lin Wu nodded, now even more nervous.

The neighborhood is actually quite bright at night, with streetlights everywhere and a bright moon.

Lin Wu hesitated at the door for half a minute before the door was pushed open again.

The nanny walked in front, and Xu Jingwang followed slowly behind her.

"You guys chat, I'm going to take out the trash," the nanny said with a smile.

After she left, Lin Wu completely forgot the prepared speech. She looked at Xu Jingwang nervously and said, "I...I...I'm sorry."

Xu Jingwang was silent for a while before asking, "Why are we talking about this?"

"I was just too angry at the time and didn't think it through. I'm sorry, I take back what I said. You are my..." Lin Wu thought for a moment and answered seriously, "a very special and important friend. No one can replace you."

Xu Jingwang blinked. "Really?"

He didn't seem as angry or as indifferent as I had imagined.

Lin Wu found that he was quite easy to coax.

With that thought, all her tension disappeared. "Yes."

Lin Wu smiled and said earnestly, "I take back what I said. Would you like to go to the aquarium with me?"

"..."

He nodded without any hesitation.

-

Lin Xun sat in the yard with crystal clay and sculpted a row of little pigs.

A cool night breeze blew as Lin Si sat beside him, intently kneading the castle.

Lin Wu bumped into the two of them as she hummed a little tune as she returned. "What are you doing?"

"My brother is playing with me." Lin Xun looked up happily.

"Give me a piece, I want to play too."

Lin Wu rolled up his sleeves and sat down.

Lin Xun studied her expression and suddenly realized, "Oh~~~ Sister, have you made up with Brother Wangwang?"

Lin Wu was taken aback. "Is it that obvious?"

Lin Xun shook his head and said, "Super obvious."

"Oh well."

Lin Wu announced loudly, "Wangwang and I have made up."

"Yay! Yay!!!"

Lin Xun cooperated very well, putting down what he was holding and starting to clap wildly.

Lin Wu's gaze slowly shifted to Lin Si. "Why aren't you clapping?"

Lin Si: "..."

He was silent for two seconds, then raised his hand and clapped it twice palely, using action to answer.

Lin Wu was satisfied.

The three siblings sat in the yard and rubbed crystal clay for almost an hour.

Finally, Lin Xun pointed to the moon and asked, "Will the moon always be bright?"

"Probably," Lin Wu said.

Lin Xun: "Why?"

Lin Wu couldn't answer, looking at Lin Si who had been promoted to the first grade.

Lin Si was silent for a moment, then said, "You'll understand when you grow up."

"How big is considered big?" Lin Xun blinked again.

Lin Si casually brushed it off, "Sixth grade, I guess."

-

[Lin Si is a big liar!!!]

I'm already in sixth grade, and I still don't know.

[Scammer, scammer, scammer.]

The phone inside the backpack vibrated silently.

Lin Wu secretly glanced out the window—

I didn't see the homeroom teacher.

So she took out her phone with a sense of relief, just about to see if it was a message from Xu Jingwang.

The next second, a devilish voice reached her ears from behind.

"Lin Wu—"

The homeroom teacher, his face like a demon, walked to the desk and said, "Give me your phone."

"..."

Sympathetic glances were cast at them from those around them.

Lin Wu looked pale and reluctantly handed over her phone.

"You've improved a lot in this midterm exam, come back and ask me for it again."

The homeroom teacher took the phone and left in a huff.

Lin Wu sadly slumped onto the table.

The boy in front of me, who had a very large mouth, turned around and said in surprise, "How dare you take that out?"

Lin Wu rested her chin on her hand in frustration. The girl was just fifteen years old, with skin as white and tender as a fresh peach. She wore a ponytail with some wispy hairs on her forehead, and her features were exquisite.

"Wasn't there supposed to be a meeting tonight?"

The person in front of me said with pity, "This is fake news, didn't you know?"

Lin Wu: "…………"

She was depressed until the end of evening self-study.

The other students got up and put on their backpacks, leaving only a few people sitting in place.

Lin Wu didn't move either.

Thinking of her phone, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

The crowd slowly left the teaching building, and the classroom was quiet.

Until someone knocked twice on the back door of the classroom.

"Knock knock—" After two knocks, the boy's indifferent voice came, "Lin Wu, it's time to go home."

Lin Wu snapped out of her daze, grabbed her schoolbag, and was about to stand up when her gaze fell on the person at the back door of the classroom, but she involuntarily paused.

The school uniform for the third grade is green, with a sporty style that is rather baggy. If a boy with slightly shorter legs wears it, it looks like a disaster.

But Xu Jingwang is different.

He grew very tall this year, already 1.8 meters tall, with long arms and legs. His school uniform looked like it was custom-made, fitting him perfectly.

He carried a backpack on one shoulder and a half-empty bottle of mineral water in his hand.

Children at this age change a lot every day.

His features had lost their former childishness and gradually become sharp and angular. The light outside the corridor was dim, and he stepped into the classroom with one foot.

His face was completely exposed to the bright classroom lights—

He is indeed very handsome.

No wonder I keep hearing people praising his good looks lately.

Lin Wu was talking to Bo Shan during dinner tonight, saying, "I know he's handsome, but he's not as handsome as they say, is he?"

Bo Shan smiled and said, "You guys are too familiar with each other now."

Yes, they're too familiar with each other now.

Song Shibai went abroad a long time ago and we haven't been in touch for a long time.

Lin Ying and Xie Yanhuai did not attend the same junior high school as the other four.

After going around in circles, only Bo Shan Hanqi and Xu Jingwang remained by her side.

Of the three, she relied on Xu Jingwang the most.
