We ordinary people also need to fall in love.

The weather on December 21, 2021 was sunny (it should have been cloudy).

Dad has suddenly become self-destructive, and I've caught a cold. There's no one to take care of Mom at the hospital. It's so frustrating...

June 22, 2021, cloudy

I heard it snowed in Pingyang, and I really want to go out and see it, but I'm still sick... My cousin won't let me go out, saying it might worsen my condition. For my mother's sake, I'll endure it...

June 22, 2022, cloudy

The Spring Festival is almost here, but I'm not happy at all. My dad does nothing all day and always thinks studying is useless...

June 22, 2022, cloudy

School has started! This girl named Xie Shu is amazing; she's been ranked number one since she entered high school! I want to learn from her! Go for it, Qiu He!

June 15, 2022, cloudy

I have to choose my major this semester, and I haven't decided which one to choose yet. Everyone says that science majors have better job prospects, but I'm really bad at science...

June 17, 2022, cloudy

I checked the calendar today and it says Easter. I don't know what holiday it is, but I hope Mom gets better soon and Dad stops drinking!

The weather was cloudy on May 8, 2022.

Mom, I've decided what subject I want to choose. I want to choose humanities, because only humanities gives me a chance...

June 18, 2022, cloudy

Studying...

June 9, 2022, cloudy

I've done my best after the exams; now I'll leave it to fate which class I end up in.

June 2, 2022, cloudy

Great! I barely made it into the honors class.

June 28, 2022, cloudy

Today is supposed to be the first day of school, but my mom suddenly became unwell. My cousin told me to go to school first, but I'm worried about her...

Sunny on August 29, 2022

Why is my deskmate a boy? Ugh, I want a female deskmate... But he's a nice guy, he lent me his meal card.

P.S.: I'm in the same class as Xie Shu now. She's very pretty.

Sunny on August 2, 2022

I ran into my old classmate at the bus stop! He was actually on the same bus as me! But I was getting off at Gaoxin Road. Also, his Bilibili channel is so unusual!

Sunny on August 8, 2022

In art class, we were asked to draw a self-portrait of my deskmate. I found him to be rather handsome, though of course I wasn't attracted to him; this was just an objective compliment.

Sunny on August 13, 2022

They're probably getting ready for the sports meet performances, but I don't find them very interesting...

P.S.: I've noticed that my male deskmate keeps glancing at Xie Shu during class. I read online that this is a sign of liking someone, which makes sense, since Xie Shu is very handsome.

Sunny on August 29, 2022

I took a photo with Li Mubai in Hanfu. He looked so silly, but in the photo, we looked like a pair of chivalrous knights.

And what's more, Liu Ting and the others actually think I like him? It's like Kennedy riding in a convertible! Even more embarrassing is that Xie Shu was listening from the other side of the dorm! Thank goodness I explained things to him; Li Mubai, you'll be grateful to me later!

June 17, 2022, cloudy

Why is Li Mubai always so gloomy? I hope he doesn't catch it from me. Luckily, I brought my own dessert.

But midterms are coming up soon, and Teacher Wu wants to rearrange the seats! Doesn't that mean I'll have to separate from Mu Bai and Li Mu Bai? Getting to know someone all over again is so tiring...

Sunny on August 25, 2022

It startled me! I thought we were going to be separated, but they moved me to sit in front of Li Mubai, and I'm even sitting next to Xie Shu! Now I can ask them any questions I want, hahaha!

June 20, 2022, cloudy

Who made Li Mubai unhappy?! We'll find them and give them a good beating! And he's so stubborn; no matter what we say, he refuses to attend the New Year's Eve party. This will only push him further away from the girl he likes. He's such a dimwit; I don't know who would like him…

P.S.: Xie Shu seems to treat him differently.

Sunny on August 17, 2023

Finally, someone's celebrating my birthday! I even took the opportunity to invite Xie Shu and Li Mubai over! Actually, when I raised my glass, I wanted to say "Happy Wedding" to them, just to tease them a little, hahaha...

P.S.: Will it snow this winter?

June 24, 2023, cloudy

It seems Li Mubai saw through the family's relationship... Should we assassinate him?

April 10, 2023, sunny (tell Li Mubai it might be cloudy).

Why didn't Xie Shu become class monitor? That's strange...

June 17, 2023, cloudy

Xie Shu hasn't been here for a while. Did she transfer schools? What about Li Mubai?

Sunny on August 29, 2023

Serving as a wingman for Xie Shu and Li Mubai...

June 28, 2023, cloudy

Li Mubai and Xie Shu were actually caught... Li Mubai is moving to another location. I don't know why, but I just can't feel happy. Maybe this is the regret of being a friend!

Sunny on August 20, 2023

Xie Shu wasn't here today, and I don't know if she prepared a birthday present for Li Mubai. So I gave it to him first—a self-portrait I drew of him. He's super handsome! He was almost moved to tears!

June 3, 2023, cloudy

They're actually going to create another elite class! How did this happen so suddenly! Li Mubai has been separated, and we'll have even fewer chances to see each other in the future! As a friend, I feel terrible...

June 15, 2023, cloudy

I heard that Li Mu Bai has a fever and is on sick leave. Luckily, I have a smartwatch that I can use to contact him.

P.S.: May illness stay away and may you get well soon!

Sunny on August 23, 2023

She actually fainted and cried! And Li Mubai saw her!! How embarrassing…

The weather on August 26, 2023 was cloudy (but it was a sunny day).

Li Mubai actually knows how to comfort people (─‿─), he put his hand on my shoulder, this doesn't seem right...

P.S.: Li Mubai owes me 30 million.

The weather on December 25, 2023 will be sunny (or cloudy?).

It's been a long time since I wrote in my diary. Senior year of high school is really busy!

Today is Christmas. I gave Li Mubai an apple. I haven't seen him in a long time. I feel a little happy to see him again today.

Is this what it means to like someone?

According to Li Mubai, it seems so...

I've fallen for him?

This won't do!

He has already fallen for someone else, and that person is none other than my other friend, Xie Shu.

But if he doesn't get into Peking University, can we go to Renmin University together...?

Sunny on August 16, 2024

High school seniors don't even get a complete Spring Festival.

They ran into Li Mubai...

June 2, 2024, cloudy

Li Mubai finally got on the bus, but I had to get off halfway...

P.S.: It's wrong to like someone who already likes someone else, right? Chen Qiuhe.

June 23, 2024, cloudy

So annoying...

Sunny on August 24, 2024

Why is Xie Shu so smart? And is it true that she's going abroad? What should Li Mubai do?

Let me think... In the end, I'd like to thank Li Mubai. If I had met him earlier, would the outcome have been different? I'm pondering that question...

P.S.: Mom is feeling better and hopefully will be discharged from the hospital soon!

June 26, 2024, cloudy

I slipped a letter into his bookshelf, hoping he'd only find it at the last minute, and hoping that even if he did, he'd never know it was me...

Sunny on August 5, 2024

The college entrance exam is tomorrow. Is Xie Shu really going abroad after the exam? She said that if nothing unexpected happens, he will, and she also told me that if Li Mubai and I both go to Beijing, I should keep a close eye on him!

Xie Shu, aren't you afraid I'll steal from you...?

P.S.: Of course! I would never do that!

Sunny on August 7, 2024

The college entrance exam is over...

June 10, 2024, cloudy

Xie Shu left so suddenly that she didn't even give Li Mubai and me time to say goodbye.

Li Mubai was depressed all day long and refused to come out even when asked.

June 11, 2024, cloudy

Xie Shu, are you really confident in your relationship? Or do you trust me completely? You actually gave me his home address.

When I went to Li Mubai's house, he was listless and dejected, just like my father was back then. I scolded him, and only then did he recover a bit.

June 12, 2024, cloudy

He's willing to go out now, Xie Shu. Only you can handle him... I can't.

Sunny on August 18, 2024

The scores are out! I actually got 649! I should have a chance to apply to Renmin University now...

Li Mubai actually performed exceptionally well and scored 671 on the exam. Could this be the power of love?

Sunny on August 25, 2024

Successfully admitted to Renmin University's Law School! Waiting for Li Mubai's good news.

Sunny on August 28, 2024

Congratulations to Li Mubai on getting into Peking University! We'll be able to meet again in Beijing!

P.S.: "Qiuhe, could you please keep an eye on Li Mubai?" — Xie Shu

Sunny on August 30, 2024

We didn't go to the class reunion because most of the people there were strangers, and Liu Xiaoqing was there too. So Li Mubai and I just had a simple barbecue together to celebrate.

P.S.: Working a summer job

Sunny on August 8, 2024

Working summer job

Sunny on August 7, 2024

Today is the Beginning of Autumn? Before we knew it, our summer was over…

P.S.: Working a summer job

The notes end here. It seems that at the time, she thought that summer was over and she should grow up, so she didn't write anything in her diary.

Chen Qiuhe closed the notebook, stuffed the notes deep into the drawer and hid them, along with those youthful memories.

Buzz!

The phone vibrated twice; their group chat for three hadn't disappeared with the end of summer.

Li Bubai: "Xie Shu and I are getting married on the 20th of next month. You'll be sitting at the head table then."

Yan Shu: "I'm getting married to Li Mubai, and I sincerely invite you to be my bridesmaid."

Chen Qiuhe gently curled the corners of her lips.

Qinghe: "I want to be a bridesmaid!"
