The next day, Chu Boyang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Ji Fengmian.

He thought that she would make any decision to disappear from his sight because she wanted to avoid him.

Fortunately, no.

However, even though she was relieved, she didn’t feel too happy.

Based on her unusual way of thinking, there was nothing more important than avoiding him.

However, she wasn’t sure what it was.

Ji Fengmian had always been a loner and didn’t leave any room for others to interact with her.

It was the same for Chu Boyang. Even though good girls tried to strike up a conversation with him, there was no response.

As time passed, the two of them became two unique scenery in the class.

They looked like them when they were young.

However, she didn’t spend as much time trying to see through their hearts as she did when she was young.

Life was orderly. There was something new every day, but it didn’t affect her much.

There was no interaction between the two of them.

Chu Jing thought that Ji Fengmian would behave differently after meeting Chu Boyang. However, the outcome disappointed him.

This woman was indeed very determined.

Who would believe that the two of them had known each other since they were young and had not even greeted each other in the past two months?

The place where Chu Boyang and Ji Fengmian could talk was not a school where they met often.

On the weekends, she was forced to go to the library that was only four to five stations away from school.

The library’s reputation in Ping Cheng City was irreplaceable.

Chu Boyang’s destination today was the library. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come out. The school library was actually a good place.

Not interested in the casual desserts on the first floor, he went upstairs to look for books.

She found a random book from the finance department and was about to find a place to sit down when she saw a glass house in the corner of the French windows. There were many potted plants inside and it was facing the sun. There seemed to be a simple table and chairs in the middle.

However, there was no one at the table and chairs. It must be a comfortable place. He walked over and pushed open the glass door.

Just as he stepped in, he saw an off-white carpet on the ground near the French windows. There were two lazy sofas on it, and someone was lazily curled up inside. Her long hair was spread casually on the blue fabric of the sofa, and her back was facing him. Her elbows were bent as she supported her head. At that moment, he heard the sound of paper flipping.

Perhaps sensing the intrusion of an outsider, the person on the sofa turned her head subconsciously. Her long hair moved to the side, and her bright and clear face was familiar to him recently.

However, her long hair was let down and there was a hint of gentleness in it.

Upon seeing Chu Boyang, Ji Fengmian paused. His clear eyes paused for a moment before he turned left and right. His posture did not change.

“You’re probably in the wrong place.” She turned her head naturally. “Remember to close the door on your way out.”

However, after a long time, there was no sound of the door opening and closing.

Ji Fengmian sighed and placed the bookmark on the page. He closed the book and flipped over from the sofa to look at Chu Boyang, who had walked to the center of the glass room.

“What’s the matter?”

Chu Boyang stared at her lazy expression. “Are you really planning to ignore me until the end?”

Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow and took a sip of the milk tea.

“I have something to tell you.”

“You have nothing to say to me?”

Ji Fengmian glanced at him and pursed his lips. He stood up from the sofa and reached out to tuck his hair back. His fair and full forehead was covered by his naturally loose hair.

Her eyes were filled with mockery.

Chu Boyang pursed his lips. He knew Ji Fengmian would have such a reaction.

“So, there’s nothing to say.”

Chu Boyang looked at her quietly. “…How have you been all these years?”

Ji Fengmian sighed and walked to a pot of blooming peonies. He used a pair of scissors to cut off the extra branches.

“Not bad. It’s not tiring to live without a heart and lungs.”

Chu Boyang’s tone softened. “I thought you would continue to pretend not to know me.”

Ji Fengmian nodded. “Yes, but I felt that it would be troublesome later on.”

Putting the scissors down, she picked up the watering can and sprinkled some on the petals.

“I can still talk to strangers occasionally… If I treat you as a stranger, I definitely can’t avoid it. So, while I have the chance, I have to make it clear to you that our relationship might be worse than strangers.”

Chu Boyang’s eyes flashed. “So bad that you can’t even say a few words?”

Ji Fengmian turned around and nodded calmly.

“Although now that I think about it, it’s indeed a little childish to take the matter of being ten years old to heart for nine years. However, I’ve already maintained it for so many years. Now that I’ve suddenly let go, I feel that it’s meaningless to persist for so many years.”

It wasn’t unfamiliar.

It was a relationship that was worse than strangers.

This attitude was really maddening.

“What should I do?”

Chu Boyang couldn’t see through Ji Fengmian at all.

There was no way she could change her mind.

This made him completely helpless.

“I don’t want to be strangers with you, nor do I want a relationship that’s worse than that.”

Ji Fengmian looked at him and frowned. “Then what should we do?”

Chu Boyang said, “Regarding the past, I admit my mistake and apologize. However, don’t leave me any leeway…”

As he spoke, he approached her slowly. The two of them seemed to have always been of the same height. They had been when they were young, and they still were.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at her. “Everyone makes mistakes, so they need to be forgiven once… That’s only fair.”

Ji Fengmian was silent for a while before he laughed. “Don’t you think these words are shameless?”

Chu Boyang remained calm. “I have no other choice.”

“What if I don’t agree?”

“Aren’t you being honest with me today because you’re afraid that something will happen between us?”

Ji Fengmian was speechless for a long time. “…I didn’t expect you to become a rascal in nine years!”

Chu Boyang pursed his lips. “You haven’t changed.”

Ji Fengmian snorted. “Nothing is certain.”

“Chu Jing?”

After a few seconds of silence, Chu Boyang suddenly spoke.

Ji Fengmian bent down and picked up the book on the couch. “Why?”

“Since he’s Uncle Chu’s son, I haven’t seen him once in the past few years. As far as I know, Uncle Chu has been taking care of you alone.”

Ji Fengmian paused. “…Shouldn’t we investigate thoroughly?”

“You’re living together now.”

“Yeah.”

“He’s been with you all these years?”

“What do you want to say?”

Chu Boyang stared at her for a while before shaking his head. “… I’m just curious about your life for the past few years.”

“Very well.”

Ji Fengmian said simply. He wasn’t in a good mood after being disturbed.

She went to get more milk tea. There wasn’t much left, and the cold ones didn’t taste good.

She walked out with the book and the remaining milk tea.

Chu Boyang followed behind her. “Milk Tea, my treat.”

Ji Fengmian remained silent.

Given Chu Boyang’s personality, which had just made it clear that he wanted to pester her to the end, it would be nonsense for her to say another word.

When the two of them reached the first floor, Ji Fengmian changed it to coffee.

Chu Boyang looked at her and said, “I’ve been seeing you drinking milk tea recently.”

“My sugar level is too high today.” Ji Fengmian sighed helplessly. “I can’t gain weight.”

The last four words surprised Chu Boyang.

It turned out that she also cared about what women were worried about.

The two of them took the number and went to find a seat. A puzzled voice greeted them.

“Brother Boyan?”

Ji Fengmian looked at the girl who stood up. She had long hair, fair skin, and a slender figure. At a glance, she looked pure, beautiful, and obedient.

At this moment, his clear eyes were looking at her with uncertainty.

Chu Boyang lowered his eyes to look at Ji Fengmian and felt inexplicably nervous. However, he still said, “… Ji Qing.”

Ji Fengmian nodded calmly. “Oh, I remember.”

Her features, charm, and indescribable aura made Ji Qing’s eyes widen.

“Sister… Mian…”

“Ji Fengmian.”

Ji Fengmian interrupted her. He felt that the words that were about to come out of Ji Qing’s mouth were a little awkward and made her look like a white lotus.

She was actually a good person.

She couldn’t think of others as bad for no reason.

She would try her best not to be a white lotus.

Ji Qing was even more shocked.

“How could this be…”

Ji Fengmian’s patience seemed to be running out today. Indeed, this had been the case from the start. There had to be a pair.

Without looking for another seat, she sat opposite Ji Qing.

There were a few cakes on the table.

Ji Qing glanced at Chu Boyang and the two of them sat down.

Ji Qing hesitated.

She didn’t know what to say to Ji Fengmian.

“I didn’t expect… I thought you…”

Ji Qing didn’t continue. Ji Fengmian smiled and asked, “Dead?”

Ji Qing bit her lip.

“Thank you so much back then. If not for you, I’m afraid…”

“Is the cake delicious?” Ji Fengmian really didn’t have the patience to listen to Ji Qing talk about the past.

Nothing made her feel better.

Moreover, over the years, she had regretted hundreds and thousands of times why she was so stupid to sacrifice herself to save others.

Ji Qing didn’t know how to answer Ji Fengmian’s question. In fact, from the beginning until now, she had never dared to answer any of his questions.

After being stunned for a long time, she could only nod.

“I’m really happy to see you today. Fortunately, you’re fine…”

Ji Fengmian pursed his lips and took a bite of the cake.

“You should indeed thank me. If not for me, you wouldn’t have eaten such a delicious cake.”

After taking another bite of the cake, Ji Fengmian smiled and continued,

“Actually, you don’t have to be so thankful just because you saw me alive and well today. Come to think of it, if you hadn’t met me today, I would still be the dead person in your heart. The cake today would still be delicious…”

Whether she lived or died had no impact on them, right?

However, when the cake was pushed in front of Ji Qing, she smiled innocently.

“Eat more. There’s no need to feel guilty. Actually, I’ve regretted countless times in the past few years. Back then, I was struck by lightning and that was why I sacrificed myself to save others.”

Ji Qing was speechless.

Indeed, she didn’t know how to deal with Ji Fengmian.

She couldn’t say anything.

“Your mouth is a bad thing.” Chu Boyang, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

Ji Fengmian turned to look at him. “Huh?”

“Isn’t it difficult to admit that you’re a good person? Why do you keep saying such misleading things?”

Ji Fengmian raised an eyebrow. “I don’t think that you’re heartless. You’re just saying that.”

Chu Boyang pursed his lips. “It was all a misunderstanding back then.”

“I can’t be considered a good person, but don’t think of me like that. How tiring is it to be a good person? If a good person does something wrong, their image will collapse and they will be despised by everyone. Even if a bad person does something good, it will be like a cliff being pulled back. It’s touching. Don’t set a good image for me. I really can’t bear it.”
