, Hey, is Wang Weiwei really pregnant I don't want to stick around in front of him. Anyone who sees this would feel uncomfortable! It's better not to meet than to create an awkward situation," Zhang Feifei said as she pouted her lips while hesitating.

Zhao Zhiyu pulled her hand and continued walking upstairs, "Wang Weiwei isn't the type of person who holds grudges. Don't worry about it. Besides, we can't keep acting cold towards each other forever, right We're all friends, aren't we To be honest, Wang Weiwei's reaction back then actually proves that he is a man of his word and true to his brotherhood. That's the real Wang Weiwei, isn't it

He's not this kind of petty person.

"Is he still angry" Zhang Xian frowned, "If he dares! If he wants to keep a distance from us because of that incident, I'll be the first one to confront him. What is he thinking He's not asking for it Isn't Su Can the one who values brotherhood and stands up for his friends When Su Can was in Grade 27, we were all close buddies! This friendship has gone through battles and revolutions together; helping each other out isn’t something new to us. Why is Wang Weiwei making it seem like he’s on the same side as Su Can now The more I think about this differentiation, the angrier I get! I really want to punch him!"

As people were heading down after school, they had no way of moving forward and were blocked everywhere. Zhang Xian was frustrated but couldn't vent his anger anywhere else so he pushed the person in front of him aside; seeing it was Zhang Xian, even though angry, the others didn’t dare to speak up.

Zhang Feifei nodded, "To be honest, this news is quite shocking. Sun Man actually likes Su Can. This completely surprises me."

Zhang Xian shook his head and waved his muscular arms, "Unexpected! Unexpected!"

Zhao Zhiyu snorted, "So what Everyone has seen how outstanding he is. It's standard for someone like Sun Man to fancy him; she wouldn't possibly be attracted to a type like you, Zhang Xian. Tall and muscular, threatening others with physical intimidation Don't you see those girls screaming at you on the basketball court are all freshmen The unexpected thing is that Su Can actually has feelings towards Tang Wu. Tsk tsk, this boy always manages to surprise us one after another."

The most interested in these matters, Zhang Feifei suggested, "Why don't we make a bet I'm sure Su Can will fall for Sun Man's pursuit while he can only admire from afar with Tang Wu. Women pursuing men is like putting a thin veil between them; just reach out and you can hold hands. Why not take advantage of this situation"

"Besides, I don't think Sun Man is worse than Tang Wu. She’s even the hostess at the school TV station. If they walk together around campus, how impressive would that look It's like Su Can hit the jackpot! How could he have a reason to refuse her when all he sees is fantasy and hopelessness"

Tang Wu held Su Can's hand as they passed through the corridor and went down the stairs. The crowd seemed torn apart by an invisible force.

The places where they walked naturally closed up again, some people behind them felt increasingly pushed from behind; about to scold, they turned around only to see this scene and quickly moved aside in panic, unable to believe that most of the people were not making way for them but rather stepping back to a safe distance.

After reaching the third floor, at the corner of the stairs, Su Can smiled at Zhao Zhiyu and Zhang Xian as they stood still on their way up. They passed each other in a moment.

The three of them turned their heads collectively in a facial paralysis-like manner, following the two who walked down, like three red sunflowers swaying daily in a field.

Zhuang Zhiyu looked at Zhang Feifei expressionlessly and swallowed nervously. "What kind of bet did you make just now"

On this end of the second-floor corridor, Qian Long laughed while Li Qingyang and others were assembling to leave, only to be stunned like wooden chickens by a pink figure and a gray one that passed them, especially with both figures holding hands as they walked down past people who avoided them.

At this moment, even someone like Qian Long couldn’t help but speak out, "Damn it."

The sunlight outside the teaching building was dazzling. Through the dark corridor where many heads had just crowded, when one suddenly appeared outside the teaching building, a slight unfamiliarity and awkwardness came over small eyes.

Tang Wu reached out to shield her eyes. Su Can pulled her along as she had just led him down the stairs with determination, her palms sweaty from nervousness and pressure.

Walking side by side, behind them stood the towering teaching building. The crowds on each floor's corridor seemed about to overflow the railings, their screams and cheers never-ending towards the two empty spaces below.

Many people felt that this should be what life in their senior year of high school was like: mundane yet filled with unforgettable excitement and madness.

"Your school is quite nice. But our schools here in Korea are all very big, about three times the size of yours," said a slender-faced Korean student, looking around and speaking in somewhat unpolished English.

Next to him, a Japanese student wasn’t far behind, "At our Mingde High School in Japan, we have dormitories, self-study societies, dedicated bathhouses, and swordsmanship training areas. Facing the Pacific Ocean, it’s also quite spacious."

"And all of our schools are uniformly designed so that there's no comparison among students, which is very strict," he added.

Edmund found these foreign students extremely hard to please and resented having to assist with their exchange visit. She retorted, "The size of a school doesn’t determine the breadth of its students' minds; we have a small library but it allows us to see the whole world."

The exchange students were taken aback for a moment before nodding in appreciation.

The exchange students from Japan and South Korea also heard the commotion coming from the other end of the teaching building. At first, they were puzzled and looked at each other, not understanding what was happening. It wasn't until they saw Tang Wu and Su Cen walking down the tree-lined path that everyone initially gasped in surprise before starting to cheer and clap, as these exchange students tended to be quite attentive.

Someone smiled at Sun Man and said, "That's such a beautiful girl! Your school is so romantic. Isn't this what we consider the greatest thing we've done during our student days"

Sun Man was shocked. Although Tang Wu and Su Cen were walking side by side now, she had seen them holding hands when they first appeared, as did all of the exchange students present, which is why they started cheering; yet, Sun Man didn't know how to feel about this.

The teachers accompanying the Japanese and South Korean exchange students were relatively young, and when they glanced over here, they all smiled slightly.

Chu Miao, who was negotiating with the principal of School 27 as well as the group leader of the Japanese and South Korean exchange students, noticed this and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Oh, that's Su Cen. I've seen him before, but my impression wasn't too deep back then. It's rare for me to remember anyone’s name."

The other one is the granddaughter of Vice Governor Song, Mu Wen's daughter; her name seems to be Tang Wu. These two kids are so self-assured and interesting.

After leaving school, they found a small unassuming eatery and sat down there. The events that had just transpired were still vivid in their minds, fueling the entire School 27 with autumn fervor once again.

Sitting inside this little restaurant, the smell of hot stewed pig trotters wafted through the air. Outside was a large tree whose leaves rustled softly against the wind; the street appeared very calm, in stark contrast to the noisy environment just moments ago at school. The din from when both of them had walked downstairs together still echoed in their ears.

From there to here, they went from being surrounded by an excited crowd in the teaching building to a quiet restaurant without any commotion, except for the sound of the stewed pig trotters bubbling gently.

This tranquility compared to the previous chaos felt as if they had stepped into another world entirely.

Looking out through the window glass, quite a few students could be seen walking home from school, chattering excitedly. Yet, none of them noticed that the focus of their discussions was right there in this spot just across one window pane.

Su Cen just pointed outside and smiled at Tang Wu, "Today was already chaotic enough. From tomorrow on, it will become even more chaotic."

He noticed that Tang Wu wasn't in a good mood, so he wanted to ease her mind. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Did I do something wrong"

Su Cen then understood why Tang Wu had been in such low spirits; it was because of this matter that she felt anxious and uncertain. Her courage today brought her more trouble than anything else since she didn't know if Su Cen would be upset about what happened, causing her distress.

Su Cen's heart softened as he pointed out the window, "Did you see those people on the street Those are our classmates, and that person picking up a child is our chemistry teacher."

"Mm." Tang Wu nodded but felt a strange emotion welling up inside her. Just moments ago, they had set the entire school ablaze, making many students think they would be escaping their evening study session for an epic romantic rendezvous. Yet in this instant, they were calmly discussing these matters here.

"They might be our classmates and teachers at this stage of our lives, but a year will pass quickly. Regardless of whether we want it to or not, everyone will move on to different places and go down their own paths. They won't remember what you did today, nor will they care about your opinions and thoughts. In fact, in their eyes, our lives are just the roles of passing strangers."

"Do you want to know if I care about others' opinions Let me tell you right now that all those things are nonsense. We only need to walk our own paths and everything else is mere clouds floating by. Speaking of today, your performance was really good. I never thought Tang Wu would actually hold my hand as we walked through the crowds in front of the school buildings. What does this signify Let me think about it."

Su Cen tried his best to tease the girl sitting across from him.

Tang Wu blushed and bit her lip, "You're mine."

"What!" Su Cen nearly lost his balance; he couldn't believe what he heard.

Tang Wu rolled her eyes at him, picked up a bowl of pig trotter soup as if nothing had happened, and said indifferently, "I don’t want to talk to you anymore."
