After seeing the emotion color, they all turned pink.

"What does it taste like?" Li Jiaxin turned her head and looked at Li You with a blank expression.

"The lavender smells so good~" Li You said with a sly grin in a high-pitched voice.

"..."

Xu Chuan was speechless.

These two men surnamed Li have been chattering away on the side ever since they came downstairs.

By sheer coincidence, Li Jiaxin overheard her conversation with Lin Xixi by the sink, as Lin Xixi had just come out of the women's restroom.

The woman acted perfectly normal in front of Lin Xixi, even smiling and greeting her with a goodbye.

Then, as soon as Lin Xixi left, she immediately told Li You about it, and the two of them launched a campaign against Xu Chuan.

Now, the two of them were following him around like glue, and the three of them walked together toward the gate of the Fourth Middle School.

"Hey Chuanzi, does your girlfriend know she's your girlfriend?"

Li You had assumed that Xu Chuan's earlier talk of "finding a girlfriend" meant going to find Lin Xixi, and now he made no attempt to hide his sarcasm.

"Just fool your buddies, don't fool yourself too, haha..."

"Xu Chuan still has a chance, isn't today one?"

A maternal smile spread across Michelle Reis's face, and the pink hue in her expression increased dramatically.

"Oh, the scent of lavender is so sweet!"

Xu Chuan chuckled twice, ignoring the two of them.

I took out my phone and sent a message to Little Star.

Xu Chuan: [I haven't eaten yet after school. Send me your location and I'll come find you.]

There are many day students at No. 4 Middle School, and most of them do not attend evening self-study sessions at school, so the gate is always packed with students after school in the afternoon.

Because of this, the school no longer checks day student permits, so everyone can buy dinner outside the school.

Michelle Reis is going to buy something to eat across from the school later.

Li You's situation is unclear; he may have bought food with Jiaxin, or he may have taken the bus home to eat.

Regardless, Xu Chuan wouldn't go with the two of them; he planned to take a taxi directly to find Xu Wanxing later.

I'm getting old and don't want to listen to my daughter and son's noisy arguing anymore.

"By the way, Xu Chuan, Xixi likes the honey cakes from the shop across from our school. Do you want to buy some and bring them back for her after evening study?"

Li Jiaxin spoke with a serious expression, turning her head to look at Xu Chuan, appearing every bit the strategist.

"Buy, buy, buy! We have to buy! Young Master Chuan must spoil his 'girlfriend' fiercely!" Li You joined in the fun with a grin.

This guy just wants to eat it all himself.

Xu Chuan probably wouldn't give the money to Lin Xixi after buying it, but he would at least share some with him...

Xu Chuan actually thought about it for a while.

His main dilemma was whether or not to buy something for Xu Wanxing.

He had tried that little cake before; it was delicious, but a bit too sweet. He wondered if Xu Wanxing liked sweet things.

"Xu Chuan".

Just as he stepped out of the Fourth Middle School gate, a call reached his ears. The girl's voice was clear and thin, almost completely drowned out by the noisy school gate.

But Xu Chuan still heard it, and he turned his head in surprise.

Amidst a multitude of complex and varied colors, the glossy black outline that accentuates the girl's slender figure stands out conspicuously.

Xu Wanxing, she actually came to No. 4 Middle School!

How did she know?

Oh, I think I mentioned it to her last night, but I didn't expect her to remember it and come over in person.

She probably washed her hair in the afternoon; it wasn't as messy as she was described on WeChat at noon.

Instead, she loosely tied her hair into a low half-up bun, secured with a small, milky-white mother-of-pearl hair clip on the right side of the back of her head.

Her hair was soft and fluffy on top, with a few fine baby hairs lying on her temples and jawline, making her face look particularly gentle and delicate.

She wasn't wearing the same loose black hooded sweatshirt as last night.

Instead, it was a beautiful milky apricot-colored knitted cardigan, not fully buttoned up. Even though it was loose, it couldn't hide her remarkable talent.

Wow, it looks really good.

However, all that black stuff just wouldn't budge...

Following Xu Chuan's gaze, Li You and Li Jiaxin also turned their heads to look in that direction.

They had just vaguely heard someone calling Xu Chuan, and at first they thought it was a hallucination, but following Xu Chuan's gaze, they also found the source of the sound.

At this moment, Li You's expression was quite interesting.

Because he knows that girl...

Isn't this the girl Xu Chuan hugged yesterday afternoon?

The story isn't going quite right, is it? Shouldn't she be hugging J and catching Gou Chuan? How did she suddenly end up at No. 4 Middle School?

Oh! She's taking Goukawa to the police station! That must be it!

Thinking back to what Xu Chuan said about his "girlfriend"...

Li Youzhen panicked.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

They only hugged once, how could they become boyfriend and girlfriend? Xu Chuan is definitely bragging!

That's absolutely right!

"Kids, my girlfriend is here, I have to go now."

Xu Chuan smiled at the two stunned people, waved his hand, and walked towards Xu Wanxing.

Michelle Reis's expression was calmer than Li You's.

But the coloring of her emotions is unstable.

The surge in popularity of the "Chuanliu Buxi" (川流不溪) couple at school, which was just a moment ago, is rapidly diminishing.

Staring blankly at Xu Wanxing on the other side, the yellow color that Li Jiaxin outlined was rising rapidly!

This woman...this woman...

That's so feminine!

What a perfect comic book body...

Xu Chuan... he really can't handle it...

He'll be sucked dry!

Li Jiaxin blinked, looked at Xu Wanxing, then at Xu Chuan, and then back at Xu Wanxing.

In my mind, a martial arts movie featuring the two main characters automatically started playing.

*Slap!* Xu Chuan lunged forward, grabbing Xu Wanxing's neck with one hand, then pressing his other hand down...

[Beep—] (Snowy screen + forced silence)

Hey! You're not allowed to think about it anymore!

Looking at Michelle Reis, who was almost entirely covered in yellow, Xu Chuan couldn't help but sigh.

It seems this woman's imagination is just as vivid as mine.

"When did you arrive?" Xu Chuan asked as he approached Xu Wanxing.

"I came here after lunch."

Upon hearing this, Xu Chuan was taken aback.

In other words, she waited at the school gate all afternoon...

But then she thought, yes, she didn't have much to do anyway, and she should have finished what she needed to do long ago, since she was supposed to leave this world last night.

Every extra day now is a bonus...

No wonder she has so much despair and blackness on her body, yet she's still willing to dress herself up so meticulously.

It seems she truly wanted to fully experience the last beautiful moments of her life.

"Xu Chuan, are you hungry? Here are some small loaves of bread I bought over there. You can have them."

Xu Wanxing smiled, raised her arm, and lifted the paper bag in her hand.

This is the honey cake across from the Fourth Middle School that Li Jiaxin and the others mentioned.

"Ah... thank you."

Xu Chuan took the paper bag, and paused for a moment as he opened it.

Xu Wanxing bought... all of them were the most expensive items in the cake shop.

Is this a plan to spend all of that thousand-plus before leaving?

"Do your...friends want some?"

Xu Wanxing noticed the Li duo, who were still looking in their direction.

Then, as if remembering something, she suddenly became somewhat flustered, looked up at Xu Chuan, and asked...

"Will I... cause them to misunderstand you? Should we explain to them...?"

Explain what?

She explained, "Hello everyone, I'm not Xu Chuan's girlfriend. I just booked a spot for male guest Xu Chuan this week's [beep]."

After [beep], I'll be on my way with peace of mind. See you all later?

"Need not."

Xu Chuan shook his head slightly.

He then turned to look at the two people over there.

She held a small, single-item cake in her hand and gently shook it at them.

Li You swallowed hard and nodded repeatedly.

Then, Xu Chuan ate the small cake in one bite.
