"Xi Xi, get up quickly, we're going to be late."

  Jiang Mu pushed open the door, and there was no one inside. The bedding was neatly folded on one side, and a bulging package stood beside the wardrobe, still unopened. Her face turned white instantly, "Jiang Aiguo, where's XiXi?"

  "Mom, I'm here, can't run away." Jiang Xi poked her head out of the bathroom with a smile, her thick bangs unable to cover up her lively eyebrows and eyes. Jiang Mu suddenly smiled.

  "It's almost six o'clock, if you don't leave now, it'll be late. Dad will ride a motorcycle to send you there." Jiang Mu rolled up his sleeves, and Jiang Xi responded with a crisp "ah" sound, knowing that not letting him send would make him uneasy again. He picked up the paper package on the table and shook it, which was what Jiang Mu had just bought at the breakfast shop.

  "I eat on the road."

  "Hey, wait a minute, put on your glasses."

  Jiang's mother hastily came out, and Jiang Xi only then discovered that he had dropped his luggage, laughing and waving his hand, "Thanks, mom."

  The city is beside the water, even the wind blowing in front of it carries a hint of heat, Jiang Xi sat quietly in the back seat with her backpack, as the motorcycle moved forward with a "tutu" sound.

  Shen City No. 1 Middle School is located in the southeast corner of Maoge Town, and usually only the north gate is open for students to enter and exit. After turning around the street corner, the school gate is in sight. Jiang Xi got off the car directly, took off his helmet and handed it back to Jiang Father, "Dad, I'm fine here, it's not easy to drive ahead."

  It's really hard to get through, this mouth is blocked, the entrance of No. 1 Middle School in the city is packed with all kinds of vehicles, it's even difficult to find a place to set foot.

  Jiang's father stopped his motorcycle by the side of the road and said firmly, "Dad will be watching you go in from here, don't be late."

  Jiang Xi knew that his parents' state of being on edge would not be alleviated for the time being, and with a sense of frustration in his heart, he turned around without looking back and said, "See you later, Dad." He adjusted his backpack straps and headed straight for the school gate.

  Jiang's father stood upright until the figure completely disappeared behind the door, then rubbed his sore eyes and rode away on his motorcycle.

  Entering from the main gate, there is a straight and wide tree-lined path, with fragrant camphor trees planted on both sides. It's late summer, and the dense greenery of the camphor trees winds all the way to the teaching building. The high school teaching building is sandwiched between the first and third years, and you need to pass through a three-forked intersection to get there.

  Students were laughing and chatting, walking along the shaded path, no one noticed that the ordinary black-framed glasses and messy hair on the side of the road was actually the beautiful class flower of the second year of high school.

  The smile at the corner of Jiang Xi's mouth remained until they reached the three-way intersection before it finally stopped.

  On the way to the high school building, a young man stood quietly, with a short haircut, clear and beautiful eyebrows and eyes, wearing a neat and tidy school uniform, white sneakers, and a gray school jacket that made his slender figure look exceptionally clean.

  It's Lu Hao.

  His cheeks were much thinner than in Jiang Xi's memory, his gaze fell straight on the three forks of the road, as if waiting for someone.

  "Lu Hao, the teacher will take attendance soon, don't say I didn't remind you." Jiang Xi recognized the person shouting beside him as Lu Hao's best friend Liu Shengsheng. He was indignant and said, "This heartless bastard Jiang Xi, she comes back without even giving you a call, doesn't she know you've been searching for her like crazy these past few days?"

  Jiang Xi was taken aback, had he gone mad?

  She thought...

  "The creek is definitely not over yet." Lu Hao's gaze slowly swept around, without moving his line of sight.

  Liu Sheng let out a snort, "When people went missing last time, you were out all day, not even attending school. If it weren't for me covering up for you, your parents and teacher would have been after you long ago. Now that it's still dark outside, you're already here causing trouble again - I've never seen anyone as eager as you!"

  "Tonight I'll take you to a double row."

  Liu Shengsheng seemed to have been choked by a deadly grip and was speechless.

  Jiang Xi heard it clearly as she passed by, her expressionless face averted her gaze, pulled the slipping backpack strap, and strode into San Cha Kou, walking further inside.

  Lu Hao thought for a moment and turned his head to take another look, only to see the girl's short hair cut to her ears, with black and shiny hair quality, looking extremely good. He shook his head and continued waiting.

  There is a 10-minute break after the morning self-study session.

  Jiang Xi took out her textbook, and the high school curriculum was a bit difficult for her. Many knowledge points had been forgotten over the years, and cramming in a short period of time wasn't going to work. There was still more than a month before the mid-term exam, and if her test scores ranked behind others, she might be eliminated from the key class.

  Sun Ting secretly looked at her deskmate, Jiang Xi, who was quietly reading a book. He had changed his appearance, toning down his bold eyebrows and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses with short hair, looking like a completely different person from the one in Gui City who had escaped with a group of people.

  She couldn't understand why in many people's eyes, everything was their fault when they were the victims.

  Scoffs, rumors, keep coming.

  Jiang Xi... will she be affected by these disturbances as well?

  Sun Ting was extremely frustrated, frustrated to the point of explosion, but the tense emotions seemed to be tightly tied by a thin thread. She tried to learn from Jiang Xi's calm and gentle face - although this didn't seem to work very well.

  Jiang Xi wouldn't have cared about these rumors at all — if she didn't have this weed.

  Pusongcao needs human qi to regulate, and she needs Pusongcao to survive, so the joy of these living people around her becomes a lifesaving tool.

  She doesn't care, but she needs it.

  Students are simple, yet not simple. To win them over, all it takes is an eraser, a pen, or even an unintentional smile, and they'll have a good impression - Jiang Xi only needs this kind of superficial, not-so-profound favor.

  With her adult wrist, she was able to easily win over these people.

  One morning, she earned six good impression points - all from nearby people, from handing over a small eraser to helping wipe the blackboard. Many people were surprised to find that after this incident, Jiang Xi, who had always been somewhat aloof, suddenly became extremely approachable and down-to-earth. Although more than half of her face was covered by those damned glasses, the smile that came from within could be very infectious.

  Most students are not so vicious, even if they chat with each other and say a few idle words, it is unintentional. Occasionally, when the person concerned hears them, seeing Jiang Xi still smiling, that little embarrassment immediately turns into a good impression.

  It's a kind of condescension, where someone who was previously better than you suddenly takes a downturn, and you can look down on them with pity.

  Jiang Xi doesn't care.

  Black cat, white cat; as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat.

  No matter what kind of good feelings she had, she accepted everything - it was all fate, who would be picky?

  A dull and uneventful week passed by as Jiang Xi struggled to gain favorability points while playing hide-and-seek with Lu Hao.

  In such a short period of time, she had gained nearly thirty good impression values - compared to a class of fifty people, there are always a few who, for some reason or another, are stubbornly resistant, hateful, or jealous, and cannot be "won over".

  "Go look for Jiang Xi outside."

  The desk was bumped, Jiang Xi silently raised his head, and the calm eyes under his glasses made Liu Yun's heart skip a beat. "What are you looking at? It's not like I'm looking for you."

  "Who's looking for me?"

  "Lou, Lou Hao." Liu Yun gritted her teeth, unsure why, but under Jiang Xi's gaze, she obediently answered.

  The chair was pushed away with a "screech" sound, making a sharp and ear-piercing noise in the quiet self-study class. Jiang Xi took a cup to the back of the classroom to get water, while Liu Yun looked at her inexplicably, "Aren't you going?"

  Jiang Xi's hand paused for a moment, "Not going."

  The teacher walked past the door and saw Liu Yun standing still in the center of the classroom, revealing a sly smile like that of a wolf's grandmother. She was indeed talented and virtuous, but her methods of handling people were also formidable after years of practice. With a warm wave of her hand, she said:

  "Liu Yun, come to my office for a moment."

  "You're cruel!" Liu Yun bared her teeth at Jiang Xi:

  "I'm telling you, Lu Hao is destined to be Chen Jing's. With the way you are now, you're not even worthy...” She glanced at Jiang Xi with a look of disdain, but the words that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back in by Jiang Xi's glare.

  As I walked out of the door and turned left towards the head teacher's office, I was still thinking: What's wrong with me? Why can't I ever face it head-on?!

  The river is calm and still.

  Sun Ting looked at her with concern and said in a soft voice:

  "Luhao has come to find you so many times, Jiangxi, but you refused to see him. And Chenjing has always been eyeing Luhao covetously, just the day before yesterday I saw the two of them chatting on the playground, you...you must think carefully."

  She muttered and murmured, but only got a comforting smile from Jiang Xi.

  Jiang Xi didn't say anything, but Sun Ting vaguely felt a hint of sadness, only the sadness was too faint and scattered in the air for a moment before disappearing.

  "You..."

  Sun Ting wanted to speak but hesitated, and the school bell rang.

  "Stop bothering me with this, silly child, it's none of your concern. Focus on studying and strive to improve every day."

  Jiang Xi Chao Sun Ting smiled, carrying her school bag and walking slowly outside. The remaining sunlight shone down, casting a golden glow on the ground. As autumn approached, the wind blowing in her face carried a hint of coolness.

  brook

  The young man's clear voice rang out, and Jiang Xi let out a helpless sigh. He couldn't escape now.

  She turned around, and Lu Hao was standing upright at the corner of the stairs, his eyes clear as crystal under his straight hair, staring at her accusingly. "Why have you been avoiding me?"

  Fleeting light and shadow suddenly traversed twelve years of time, once again falling on the young man's pale and delicate face.

  Jiang Xi has been hearing some news recently, Lu Hao did a lot of things for her.

  She has been missing for days, and Lu Hao has been wandering around the place where she disappeared, asking people to check the surveillance cameras, looking for news. A class committee member of a key class, a good student who always ranks first in the grade, hasn't even gone to school.

  Jiang Xi is not unshaken.

  In his memory, that boy once foolishly followed her through one long street after another, passing by row upon row of street lamps, secretly following her in the darkness of countless nights, protecting her as she walked past the dark alleys in front of the tube-shaped buildings before leaving.

  So when Lu Hao confessed, she agreed without any hesitation.

  Fate plays tricks on people.

  Jiang Xi blinked lightly.

  The moisture in his eyes disappeared as if it had never appeared before. "Lu Hao, I thought you understood what I meant."

  Lu Hao's face quickly turned white.

  It was just after class, and there were many students going up and down the stairs. Almost everyone who passed by couldn't help but take a glance at the two of them.

  Jiang Xi glanced at him and said, "Follow me."

  She went downstairs first, behind the teaching building there was a row of flower beds, at this time the flower beds were usually empty, Jiang Xi found a step to sit down, behind her was a row of hard bricks, pressed against her back, making her feel settled instantly.

  Sit.

  Lu Hao sat down restlessly, one hand unconsciously scratching a small clump of grass under the steps.

  "Lu Hao, let's break up."

  Jiang Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, and in the corner of his eye, a fiery red sunset dragged the evening sun, as if a long torch was falling straight down to the ground. The sky gradually darkened.

  "Why?"

  Lu Hao's unexpected calmness.

  Jiang Xi looked at him in surprise, pinching his palm with his fingernail: "No reason."

  "Is it because of what happened before?" Lu Hao turned his head, his eyes piercing as he stared at her through thick glasses, trying to see through her. "I don't care." Single eyelid, high nose bridge, the young man's fledgling features already had a hint of determination.

  Jiang Xi shook his head, "It's my problem."

  She spread her palms open, "Look closely."

  The girl's palm was as smooth as tofu, without a single scar.

  Lu Hao looked at Jiang Xi with an unreadable expression as he covered his hand over Lu's, his eyes cast downward, and the tips of his ears gradually turned red.

  He gradually felt something was wrong.

  The two palms were stuck together, and a layer of sweat had already appeared on the spot where they touched. Jiang Xi tightly grasped his hand, and her grip was so tight that it hurt. Almost visible to the naked eye, red rashes began to appear one after another on Jiang Xi's originally fair and smooth hands, and they were still spreading upwards.

  "You——"

  Lu Hao's eyes widened in shock, and with his limited knowledge, he couldn't even guess what had happened.

  "Lu Hao——" Jiang Xi smiled and said, "I'm afraid there's an illness here that can't be cured."

  She pointed to her heart and mouth, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and said nonchalantly.

  The humiliation of eleven years ago, until that old man came running to the bed and became the last straw that crushed Jiang Xi.

  She developed a physiological aversion to men.

  Except for Jiang's father or young children with weaker sex consciousness, any boy or man approaching the river would make her allergic, and severe cases could even lead to shock.

  Lu Hao apparently didn't understand.

  Jiang Xi raised his left hand, and he subconsciously grasped it tightly, seeing her face twisted in pain, and hastily let go, "Sorry, sorry."

  "Thank you."

  Thank you for everything you've done for me

  Jiang Xi withdrew her left hand and looked at Lu Hao apologetically, "Let's break up."

  The boy in her dream was still pure and clean, so good, so far away.

  There are people in this world who have loved too much, but she Jiang Xi, has obviously loved to the point of exhaustion.

  Lu Hao walked back dejectedly, Jiang Xi quietly leaned against the flower bed behind him, his left hand trembling as he reached into his pocket - only to be disappointed to find that there wasn't a single cigarette inside.

  Right, she hasn't developed a smoking habit yet.

  "Hmph!"

  In the dim light, a low voice came from the flower bed, "Little girl, your skill of abandoning people is far more clever than mine."

  The low-pitched voice was like the most sonorous violin in the world, piercing through the hazy reality of dusk and shattering the tranquility of the river.

  "Who?!"
