Summer Green Apples

He Ran was stunned until his girlfriend nudged his waist, at which point he regained his voice.

"What the hell are you talking about?" He Ran said. "How come I didn't know you'd talked about it?"

"We just talked about it," Chi Sui said calmly.

He Ran: "With whom? Which school? I doubt you can find a prettier girl than our school beauty in the entire Pingcheng."

"Yeah, that's right," He Ran's girlfriend whispered in agreement.

She and Meng Leran are good friends.

I came out here specifically to help my good friend.

Unexpectedly, Chi Sui said that he had talked about it.

Seeing that Meng Leran was about to cry, He Ran's girlfriend couldn't sit still any longer.

Chi paused for only a second, "Our nanny's daughter is my childhood sweetheart."

Ji Xiwen at the next table: "?"

She had met Aunt Chen's daughter before.

I am eight years old this year and in the second grade.

Xu Jiyang wasn't much better off than Ji Xiwen. He was stunned for two seconds before echoing, "Yes, I've seen him."

He Ran: "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

Chi Sui said lazily, "Keeping a mistress in a gilded cage, do you know that?"

"Chi Sui!"

Meng Leran's voice was trembling with tears, "You've gone too far."

Chi Sui: "...How did I go too far?"

"You know perfectly well that I like you... yet you still..." Meng Leran choked back tears, which fell like pearls from a broken string.

Through the hazy vision, the boy's expression remained unchanged, as indifferent as ever.

He is naturally very good-looking.

Meng Leran is an art student who often goes to various training classes and has seen many different types of handsome men, but none of them are as handsome as Chi Sui.

No one else has that sense of relaxation about him.

Like the distant moon, it's right in front of you, yet you can't touch it no matter what you do.

"I rejected you too." Chi Sui tilted his head. "Didn't I?"

His voice was cold and unforgiving.

Meng Leran stood up awkwardly, turned around and ran out, attracting the attention of many people around her.

Those people's gossipy gazes swept back and forth.

Chi Sui remained calm, glanced at He Ran, and said, "I want milk tea, full sugar and ice."

"You drink dog shit."

He Ran cursed, but still obediently took out his phone and ordered through the mini-program.

After all, it was his suggestion to come to the bubble tea shop, and he said he would treat everyone.

Xu Jiyang thought for a moment, "I want a watermelon bucket drink, half sugar is fine."

Zhang Qingyan's phone rang; it was a notification that the milk tea was ready.

She whispered, "We can go now."

After saying that, she got up and went to the order counter to get her milk tea.

It was only then that Xu Jiyang noticed that the people at the next table seemed to be from his class.

He looked up and his eyes met Ji Xiwen's.

Her bangs were a little damp, and annoyed, she brushed them aside, revealing her forehead in the middle.

It's not the kind of birthmark that boys talk about in private.

Ji Xiwen had already stood up. When she met Xu Jiyang's gaze, she lowered her head slightly, revealing her soft-featured eyes and well-shaped eyebrows.

She paused for a moment, hesitating whether or not to say hello.

Xu Jiyang is usually a very active member of the class, and Ji Xiwen has talked to him much more this week than she has to talk to her deskmate Chi Sui.

As a result, Xu Jiyang just stared at her coldly, without showing any intention of greeting her.

Ji Xiwen understood, felt a little embarrassed, and quickly slipped away.

She loves wearing shorts in the summer because she can't stand the heat, and her slender, fair legs are very eye-catching.

Xu Jiyang didn't come to his senses until she met up with Zhang Qingyan and they left the milk tea shop together.

He reached out and nudged Chi Sui, swallowing hard in shock. "Did you just see that?"

"What do you see?"

Chi Sui looked down at his phone and asked impatiently.

"Your deskmate!" Xu Jiyang said excitedly, shaking his arm. "I just saw your deskmate's face. She's not ugly, she's so pretty..."

He racked his brains for an adjective: "Extremely innocent."

Chi Sui: "..."

He was getting a little annoyed by Xu Jiyang's dawdling. "And then? What are you so shocked about?"

"I just don't understand why someone as pretty as her would have such an outdated hairstyle?" Xu Jiyang said.

Chi Sui paused for a moment as he tapped the screen.

He really didn't understand it either.

"They're doing it for their own good, and you're being quite nosy," he scoffed.

Xu Jiyang didn't argue with him and continued, "It's a pity you didn't see her just now. She's definitely your type."

He Ran was quietly coaxing his girlfriend and had no intention of paying attention to the two of them.

Upon hearing Xu Jiyang's words, Chi Sui completely lost interest in playing the game.

The little figure on the phone crashed into the subway and was caught by security.

The way Ji Xiwen looked at him yesterday flashed through his mind again.

His dark pupils were very bright, so they appeared wet, carrying a hint of unease and hesitation.

He slowly exhaled, "I should have gone fishing outside the city with Li Junyu today."

"What's so fun about fishing?" Xu Jiyang scoffed dismissively.

He bumped into Chi Sui again, and said in a puzzled tone, "By the way, how come your deskmate is hanging out with Zhang Qingyan? That girl is not to be trifled with. Li Zhaozhao said she's going to find someone to teach her a lesson, so don't let your deskmate get involved."

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?" Chi Sui said, annoyed by his annoyance, and nudged him.

"Too."

Xu Jiyang sighed, "You two have been deskmates for a week, and you've been like two mute people. If you didn't know better, you'd think our school was a school for the deaf and mute."

Chi Sui: "Go to hell!"

……

As soon as she stepped out of the bubble tea shop, Luo Wenjing could no longer contain her excitement. "Holy crap, Chi Sui actually rejected Meng Leran."

"Is she Meng Leran?" Ji Xiwen asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yes, yes," Luo Wenjing said. "It's that art student whose family is quite wealthy, the one I told you about before."

"Oh, oh, oh."

Luo Wenjing appears to be quite quiet and is a model student, but she has a rather gossipy personality and often likes to tell Ji Xiwen about the various prominent figures in the school.

As a result, Ji Xiwen now knows many people's names but can't match their faces.

Ji Xiwen nodded and said sincerely, "It is indeed quite beautiful."

Zhang Qingyan clicked her tongue, "You're much prettier than her. If you just changed your ugly hairstyle, the school beauty would be replaced immediately."

"Yes," Luo Wenjing nodded vigorously. "Meng Leran is indeed very pretty, but there are plenty of beauties like her on the streets. I haven't really seen anyone quite like you. Why do you have this kind of bangs?"

Ji Xiwen smiled awkwardly, "I'm used to it."

Zhang Qingyan glanced at her, clearly knowing that she wasn't telling the truth.

Luo Wenjing, however, was quite nonchalant and quickly changed the subject, saying, "But what shocked me even more was that Chi Sui is actually in a relationship."

Ji Xiwen quickly tried to avoid the topic of why he had that hairstyle, and followed Luo Wenjing's words, "He's a good catch, it's not surprising that he's dating, what are you so shocked about?"

"I never expected him to date the nanny's daughter. After all, he has high standards, and he should at least find someone of equal social standing," Luo Wenjing said.

"At this age, relationships are usually based on looks." Zhang Qingyan lowered her head and took a sip of her milk tea. "Students generally don't consider family background, unless they're too poor or have too many problems."

"Too."

Luo Wenjing was quickly persuaded and dragged Ji Xiwen and Zhang Qingyan straight to the bookstore and stationery store on the fourth floor.
