Meng Zhixue felt a little ashamed.

But not many.

The main point is that, whether in the first or second life, the reason she was with Gu Huai was because he took the initiative.

If he hadn't taken the initiative, she probably wouldn't have been with him... right?

In her first life, when she was with Gu Huai, he was only a junior in college.

At that time, she was devastated by Ying Shunian's departure and lived in a daze, like a walking corpse. He pulled her out of the mire.

He took her for a drive to relax, dragged her to do extreme sports, and took her to his favorite shooting range.

She didn't calculate the exact time, but he patiently accompanied her through the ordeal before confessing his feelings to her.

At that time, although she vaguely guessed his thoughts, she had no chance to directly reject him because he had never confessed to her, so she kept dragging it on.

Over time, she got used to it.

On the day he finally confessed his feelings, she even had a feeling of "it's finally here," and without any hesitation, she nodded and agreed to his proposal.

Perhaps for her at that time, Gu Huai was like a "lifeline" that she could grasp, filling the emptiness in her heart.

Perhaps it was the label of "close friend of a distant age" that made her more tolerant of him.

Perhaps it was his persistence that moved her; she also needed someone who seemed indifferent but was actually passionate to inspire her.

In short, she agreed to his request.

She thought her relationship with Gu Huai wouldn't last.

A young man, a year younger than her, handsome and wealthy, is unlikely to settle down completely for a woman.

But to her surprise, the two got along quite well, and Gu Huai was more determined than she had thought.

He never paid attention to other girls; almost all his attention was on her.

Whenever she jokingly called him "little kid" when they were together, he would corner her against the wall, bend down, and interrogate her about exactly what made him "little," adding that he hadn't said that before...

Those past images flooded back, and Meng Zhixue's cheeks suddenly flushed red.

He felt that the Gu Huai in his memory and the cool, aloof, yet incredibly naive high school senior in front of him were completely different.

and……

Recalling their previous intimate behavior, it seemed that it was a bit... how to put it, a bit sacrilegious towards Gu Huai, who was in his senior year of high school?

I feel like I'm becoming a bit of a weird auntie...

No no no!

Quickly clear your head of all that yellow nonsense and stay calm!

Meng Zhixue stood up, dusted off her pants, picked up her canvas bag, and prepared to leave.

We came out to find food, and if we don't leave soon, our stomachs will start growling.

She never planned to have any further contact with Gu Huai in this lifetime.

He hasn't even graduated from high school yet, so why is she, a person who has been reborn, getting entangled with a child?

They still have to take the college entrance exam!

Given how much Mrs. Gu values ​​Gu Huai's studies, if she were to "corrupt" Gu Huai, she would definitely be torn to pieces by Mrs. Gu!

That would be terrifying!

Meng Zhixue walked forward while thinking about it.

However, after walking only about twenty or thirty steps, a gust of wind suddenly swept up behind her.

The sound of sneakers clicking on the concrete floor grew louder as they approached, quick and crisp, carrying the impulsiveness and recklessness characteristic of youth.

Before she could react, a figure in a dark red jersey swept past her, turned around, and stood in front of her, blocking her path.

Meng Zhixue immediately stopped in her tracks and looked up in surprise.

It was Gu Huai!

A tall, handsome boy stood in front of her, his chest still rising and falling slightly, clearly having just run from the basketball court.

He was a head taller than her, standing against the afternoon sun, his face damp with sweat, and he was radiating heat.

His dark eyes looked at her, his tone casual, but the barely noticeable blush on the tips of his ears betrayed him: "Excuse me, are you a student at this school?"

Meng Zhixue paused for a second, then nodded: "...Yes. What's wrong?"

Gu Huai looked away, then turned back, coughed lightly with his fist to his lips, and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Um... could I have your contact information?"

Meng Zhixue was momentarily stunned: "...Huh?"

Looking at the boy's reddened earlobes and his feigned composure, she suddenly recalled the scene of him rejecting that girl earlier.

His thunderous remarks were still ringing in her ears when, almost instinctively, she blurted out, "You...you're still young, aren't you? Isn't your phone watch with your mother?"

Gu Huai: "..."

Meng Zhixue: "..."

Eyes facing each other.

Gu Huai's face turned red from the tips of his ears to the roots of his neck, and even his aggressive gaze softened, showing that he was truly an 18-year-old boy.
