When their lovely childhood friend returned, they were all in a panic!

On the second day of the holiday, Bai Yu stayed at home all day.

There were still no messages on her phone, so Bai Yu went to finish writing the novel chapters she hadn't finished yesterday.

Unwittingly, Bai Yu also noticed the "Comments" section, which had several small red dots.

When I clicked on it, it was a familiar name.

"handler one"

Although his novels are not very popular, he still has a loyal reader.

If it weren't for her unwavering dedication to following the updates every day, Bai Yu might have given up before reaching 10 words.

As for the name "handler one," Bai Yu naturally knew it.

Of the few anime series I've ever watched, this happens to be from one of them, "86".

"Handler One" means controller number one, which is also the code name of the female protagonist Reina in the anime.

"handler one": Author, where is today's update?

"handler one": I stayed up all night waiting! Waaah, I got stood up...

Upon seeing this, Bai Yu hurriedly typed a reply.

"No, no! I was a bit busy yesterday, but I made up for the chapter today. Sorry..."

I can't afford to lose my few remaining book fans.

For any author, losing fans is a heartbreaking thing.

After spending half a day finishing the novel update, Bai Yu picked up the headphones Luo Qingyan had given her yesterday.

Three thousand yuan...

That's several months' worth of living expenses.

However, I haven't used such high-end headphones much.

The headphones I use now only cost a little over 100 yuan.

I carefully selected the items before finally gritting my teeth and buying them.

After unpacking the earphones Luo Qingyan gave him, Bai Yu put them on and listened to a few of his favorite songs.

Sure enough, the high-end ones are different; even the vocals have more texture.

My own discerning ears also gained more satisfaction.

However, Bai Yu will not carry these headphones with her at all times.

Because it's so precious, and it was a gift from someone else, so it also has sentimental value.

Although it's a couple's experience card meant to commemorate a day.

After finishing her own business, Bai Yu went to the living room.

Sometimes, her younger sister, Bai Ruoxi, would do her homework at the dining table.

Bai Yu still doesn't understand why she doesn't write in her own room.

After finishing her homework at the dining table, she would throw her messy homework all over the table.

Bai Yu had to personally go and tidy it up every time.

"Ugh."

This time was no different; Bai Ruoxi was nowhere to be seen at the dining table, only a pile of homework she had left behind.

Bai Yu bent down to tidy up, and while doing so, she also saw Bai Ruoxi's diary.

My younger sister has a habit of writing a diary.

But she never hid her diary; she just casually put it together with her homework.

Every time Bai Yu sees it, she can't help but flip through it.

After all, we still need to care about my sister's mental state.

She doesn't often express her emotions, so you have to figure them out yourself.

The diary was quite old; Bai Yu flipped through more than half of it before finally reaching the latest page.

"It's the weekend, but my brother is different from usual. He's not home to play with me. I don't know where he went."

This is the first paragraph; continue reading below.

"I'm very unhappy that my brother isn't coming home. I just want to eat the food he cooks; takeout doesn't feel warm."

This is the second paragraph.

"My brother brought back my favorite tiramisu. He remembered it, but I'm not happy because he lied to me again."

This is the last paragraph.

After reading it, Bai Yu closed the diary with a heavy heart, stacking it together with Bai Ruoxi's scattered homework.

Oh dear, I have too much of this!

So the lie had already been seen through?

It's not that I don't want to tell the truth, but you'll be unhappy if I do.

——I am a dividing line——

The last day of the weekend passed by hastily. As always, Bai Yu sent Bai Ruoxi to her school before heading to her own.

I was still on time for school, just a few minutes late.

On her way back to her seat, Bai Yu overheard her classmates discussing something in a lively chatter.

Most of them are about the post Luo Qingyan made on her WeChat Moments.

"Wow, Luo, the school beauty, is really in a relationship! Her posts on WeChat Moments over the weekend were so sweet."

"Yes, I'm curious who her real boyfriend is."

"Has Bai Yu become a clown too? He's been seamlessly replaced."

"Hahaha, let him enjoy being a shield, let him enjoy being known as the school beauty's boyfriend."

"Shh, Bai Yu's here. He doesn't look too good..."

"Oh my god, is he falling for me?"

Bai Yu didn't speak; the way he was being watched made him very uncomfortable.

The comments about him, in particular, made him even more irritated.

Bai Yu silently pressed the button on the old headphones and turned the volume up a little.

That way, you won't hear other people's comments.

Only after returning to his seat did Bai Yu take off his headphones and put them in his pocket.

Mu Anqi arrived earlier than me and was lying on the table, doing something I couldn't tell.

When Bai Yu returned to her seat, she noticed that the other woman glanced at her.

Are you still holding a grudge about what happened that day?

Bai Yu muttered to himself.

After sitting down, Bai Yu wanted to speak, but couldn't bring herself to say anything.

I'm still feeling too conflicted.

but......

After hesitating for a long time, Bai Yu reached out and touched Mu Anqi's shoulder.

As if Mu Anqi had anticipated this, she turned around very quickly.

Her lovely face pretended to be absent-minded.

"that......"

"that......"

The two of them spoke at the same time.

Bai Yu and Mu Anqi were both taken aback, and then, as if in perfect sync, hurriedly spoke up.

"You go first."

"You go first."

They spoke in unison, which surprised both of them.

Both of them paused, waiting for the other to speak.

Seeing that no one spoke, Bai Yu was about to open her mouth to speak when she noticed that Mu Anqi had also opened her mouth.

Upon seeing this, Bai Yu immediately closed his eyes again.

"you say."

"you say."

They still spoke in unison.

Mu Anqi's cute face turned red.

Although I had mentally rehearsed how to apologize to Bai Yu, what's going on here?

What did Bai Yu want to say?

Are we going to break off our friendship?

No, I have to apologize right now, otherwise I'll burst into tears if I hear him say "break up" twice.

"I'm sorry about what happened that day."

"I'm sorry, Bai Yu, I shouldn't have kept asking!"

The two apologized at the same time, but the content of their apologies differed.

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled with relief.

That smile, filled with the utmost gentleness, came from the heart.

"My problem was that I wasn't in a good mood at the time. It's okay, no need to apologize."
