Su Cheng followed Li Guanqi's location and took a bus to the nearby area, where he was now searching for traces of her.
He realized he had arrived at a slope, which was quite long and he couldn't see the upper scene, but riding a bicycle down it must be exhilarating.
However… he always felt this scene was a bit odd.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Cheng decided to observe his surroundings first.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, messing up Su Cheng's hair. He looked up and saw cherry blossoms along the way fluttering and scattering in the wind.
Just as Su Cheng was complaining about the scene's incongruity, another gust of wind blew, carrying a white "beret" that landed on Su Cheng's head.
In an instant, he instinctively raised his hand to grab the white thing on his head. Feeling the texture in his hand, he realized it wasn't a beret at all but a white trash bag!
"Why are you holding a trash bag?"
Suddenly, a familiar girl’s voice came from his ear, and Su Cheng was startled. He quickly put the trash bag behind him.
Before seeing her, he heard her voice; without seeing her face, the scene was already filled with the beautiful romantic feeling of cherry blossoms.
Li Guanqi was standing beside him, not knowing when, slightly bent over and looking at him with an expression that remained calm. However, Su Cheng could sense a hint of teasing in her tone.
Her eyes were clear and pure, like a clear pond, and sparkling like obsidian, full of spirituality.
She still had long black straight hair, but today she wore a black dress, black stockings, and black flat shoes, looking very simple. She also had a shoulder bag slung over her body, giving her an elegant and conservative appearance.
However, Su Cheng always felt that Li Guanqi dressed like this to hide herself, reducing others' attention on her.
In short, she was a well-dressed beauty who didn't need makeup.
Hmm, she had a "confessable" mark on her head.
"Nothing, protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility."
Su Cheng put the trash bag into a nearby recycling bin and explained seriously.
Li Guanqi didn't pursue the matter further. Instead, she looked into Su Cheng's eyes, frowned, and said seriously, "I'll leave it to you today."
Su Cheng quickly averted his gaze, nodded, and said, "Let's go, the bookstore is close by."
Li Guanqi watched Su Cheng's slightly flustered appearance, her frown deepening, but she didn't say anything and just silently followed beside Su Cheng.
The two walked side by side in silence.
There wasn't much to talk about, mainly just accompanying someone to buy workbooks, not a date.
Li Guanqi seemed to know that Su Cheng liked quietness, so she didn't speak either.
Soon, they arrived at the bookstore. Su Cheng led Li Guanqi to the workbook section and handed her two workbooks.
"Here are the workbooks I usually use."
Li Guanqi glanced at the workbooks, took them in her hands, and started flipping through them.
Meanwhile, Su Cheng walked around, observing the bookstore's layout and trying to spot any strange bunny girls.
It was early morning, so the bookstore wasn't crowded.
Only an old man was reading a newspaper at the counter. At this moment, Li Guanqi was carrying a few workbooks to the counter and knocked.
Her familiarity was almost heartbreaking, as if she had to knock for others to notice her.
The old man looked up and exclaimed upon seeing Su Cheng, "Young man, why did you suddenly run so far?"
"Knock knock."
Li Guanqi knocked on the counter again.
The old man was startled and then noticed Li Guanqi at the counter. He apologized, "Sorry, I'm getting old, my eyes are a bit blurry."
"Hello, old man."
Li Guanqi nodded and said, "I want to buy these workbooks."
Soon, Li Guanqi finished paying and came to Su Cheng with a bag. Su Cheng looked at what she was carrying and was a bit surprised. There were seven or eight books inside, so he asked, "Why did you buy so many workbooks?"
"To learn your study methods."
Li Guanqi answered, "That's only natural." Su Cheng was both amused and speechless. He then explained, "This can be harmful. It's good to do it occasionally. Besides, your grades are already good, and this won't help you much."
Li Guanqi looked at Su Cheng's lips, seemingly seeing through something, so she shook her head and didn't respond to the topic. Instead, she said, "Your lips are suitable for lip gloss."
Su Cheng's expression froze, and he quickly changed the subject, "Well… since we're done, let's go."
Li Guanqi nodded and didn't say anything more.
The two walked out of the bookstore, and then Li Guanqi said, "Thank you for today."
“It’s just a small effort, didn’t take much time.”
Su Cheng quickly waved his hand and smiled, "Besides, you once didn't eat to learn lines to satisfy my strange 'interest'."
Su Cheng tried to steer the conversation to the previous confession. Li Guanqi replied calmly, "Was it to satisfy your strange 'interest'?"
She said, staring intently at Su Cheng with her black eyes, as if trying to see through him.
"Yes."
Su Cheng was a bit overwhelmed and could only nod in agreement.
"Do you want it today?"
Li Guanqi asked, her gaze fixed on Su Cheng's face, speaking slowly and deliberately.
"Is it possible?"
Anytime.
Li Guanqi withdrew her gaze, looking ahead, her face still calm, her tone flat but revealing a hint of ambiguity.
"Then now…"
Just as Su Cheng was about to blurt it out, Li Guanqi suddenly stopped and looked at him: "It's still early, can you accompany me for a walk?"
"No… no problem."
Su Cheng didn't expect her to suddenly make such a request and didn't know how to refuse, so he could only agree reluctantly.
After all, confession was urgent, just a walk, right?
"Let's go to the nearby mall."
The two walked side by side for about ten minutes, and Su Cheng didn't say a word.
After all, walking with a girl seemed like something only couples would do, which made Su Cheng feel strange, so he didn't speak much.
They arrived at the nearby mall. It was the weekend, and the mall was almost packed with people. As soon as they entered, they felt the lively atmosphere.
However, Su Cheng unexpectedly noticed that Li Guanqi was often bumped into, and several times she almost fell. Although both sides apologized afterward, it was only a matter of time before she fell or got lost.
"It's my first time here."
Li Guanqi explained to Su Cheng, seeing his worried expression.
Hearing her, Su Cheng frowned and suggested, "Why don't we go somewhere else? You'll get hurt like this!"
"If…"
Li Guanqi paused here and then stretched out a white delicate hand, speaking calmly, "If you hold my hand, others will notice me."
After saying that, she still held out her hand, waiting for Su Cheng's response.
In that instant, he felt as if the surrounding scene had frozen, with only the two of them looking into each other's eyes.
When he reacted, the crowd became noisy again, with people pushing and shoving, and he was surprised to see someone about to bump into her from behind!
So, without hesitation, he raised his right hand and quickly grasped her left hand.
This scene was just noticed by a girl behind Li Guanqi. She suddenly stopped, then changed direction and walked away.
