CHAPTER 1 - FEELING-TO-GOLD

Dong Dong …

Who is it? The door opened, and a middle-aged woman opened it. She looked curiously at the sixteen to seventeen year old youth in front of her with a pretty face and a smile in her eyes. Who are you looking for? "

The young man politely smiled and greeted her, Hello, Auntie! I am Su Xiang's class monitor, here is my student card. It's like this, it's almost the final exam. In order to help those students who are struggling with their studies, the teacher specifically asked me to come and help up Su Xiang.

The middle-aged woman looked at the student token in the young man's hand and was pleasantly surprised. She greeted the young man enthusiastically. Hurry, hurry, aiya, it's really great of you to thank me. My family's Su Xiang has always been disobedient, causing you, the class monitor, so much trouble. Come on, please come in. Su Xiang is in that room, you go take a seat first, I'll get you some fruits. "

The youth stopped the woman as he walked, Auntie, don't trouble yourself. I still have to go to the next house. I'll stay here for an hour. Don't be busy. As he said that, he opened the door that the woman had pointed to, smiled at her, and lightly closed the door, locking it behind him.

In the room, a tall and skinny youth who was playing crossing the line of fire beside his computer mumbled in annoyance, What are you doing again? I'll read after I finish playing this round. Are you tired of me playing over and over again?

The corner of the young man's mouth slowly curled up into a faint smile. He walked to the computer and gently called out, It's me, you stinking brat.

The teenager, who was having fun, frowned. It's you? I thought it was my mom again. How about it? Is everything done? "

The youth who had just entered the room casually sat down beside the young man who was playing computer. He said in a leisurely tone, Yes, it's all settled. You still have the mood to play games.

He took a cigarette and lit it up himself, then said with a smile: I say, boss, am I easy? As soon as I went home, I was forced to read and write by mom, it's not like you don't know that I have a headache as soon as I see a book, so I hid in my room to play and vent. Please forgive me.

The teenager rolled his eyes at Su Xiang and said, I don't care about how you play. As long as you give me a satisfactory result in the college entrance exam, I won't be able to pass the exam. I must take down the college entrance exam.

Su Xiang Xie laughed: We don't even want to get an undergraduate degree, but don't worry. Even if we fail the exam, Old Bao and I will ask our uncle from that university to bring us in. At that time, we can be together again, hehe.

The young man did not make a sound. He puffed on the cigarette that was about to burn down, as if he was thinking about something. Seeing this scene, Su Xiang could only sigh lightly. He handed the young man an unlit cigarette and asked: You're still thinking about her? Why are you suffering? It's not all your fault. You've done well enough. Besides, she has already left. Even if she did not leave, would you guys still be together? Impossible, now that a relationship has passed away, it's impossible to come back. It looked like a perfect vase, but once it was broken, no matter how well it was mended, there would still be cracks. Emotions were like a vase. Once it broke, as time passed, the crack would slowly grow bigger and eventually push the person further away. You must think of something. Remember, you are the one and only Zhang Song. No one can knock you down."

It turned out that the youth who visited Su Xiang's home late at night was Su Xiang's classmate, Zhang Song. Because of an unforgettable first love, he was unable to extricate himself from Su Xiang's youth. It was because of this young and innocent love that he had paid all the love he could give. However, fate had played a huge joke on him. Before he could reach the end, the pair of blissful little lovers had to separate for some reason. After he lost his first love, he didn't have a shred of passion for life, nor did he have any interest in other people's affairs. Just like an outsider giving him an evaluation, it was cold, tug, act tough.

Indeed, the most direct feeling he gave others was that he was extremely cold and unapproachable. Not to mention interacting with him, even outsiders would not dare to interact with him lightly. Of course, there were exceptions to everything. Although he was a repulsive person, he still had his own circle of friends and friends. He still had a group of very good friends. In their words, they were best friends, even brothers. Su Xiang was one of them.

The youth called Zhang Song smiled miserably, putting away his lost feelings and slowly opened his mouth as if talking to himself, "What is past no longer comes, the beginning and the end can never change, maybe I should believe that it is fate, the lover will never come again after parting, the flowers will wilt but still bloom, and the love of my life can only drift outside the white clouds.

Su Xiang looked at his brother who was about the same age as him. Suddenly, he had an illusion. How could a sixteen or seventeen year old boy display such an vicissitudes of life that only an old man who had experienced the vicissitudes of life could. He silently stared at his best brother. He didn't know what he should say at this moment. Perhaps silence was the best way to interpret it. Comfort him? Although they were about the same age, Su Xiang felt that he was not as mature as them.

Is your hand fully healed? After shaking off the complicated emotions from his mind, Su Xiang suddenly thought of something and asked with a concerned expression.

Yeah, it's almost ready. We'll be able to extract the steel bars in a few days. Zhang Song's lips curled up as he waved his left hand at Su Xiang, indicating that his left hand would soon be able to move normally like before.

Su Xiang laughed from the bottom of his heart, and joked: En, looks like the recovery effect is not bad, you must hurry up, the annual high school third grade football tournament is going to start in half a month, we are all looking forward to riding on the battlefield with you.

When Zhang Song heard this, he frowned and did not say anything. After a full minute, he let out a long breath and said, This hand is precisely because of football. I don't want to touch basketball for the rest of my life, and I won't be participating in this year's football tournament. You must win the championship for me, or else don't come back and see me again.

Su Xiang was surprised by Zhang Song's words and said in surprise: What? No more football? You're not kidding, football and basketball are your favorite and best at it, how can you just leave without touching it, that's hard for me to understand.

Zhang Song raised his long hair and said seriously: So what if I love it the most and am good at it the most? It was just a sport, and no matter how well you played it, you couldn't eat it. I came here tonight to tell you that after a period of time, at the earliest, half a month at the latest, I will have to go out for a period of time, until the start of next semester, when I can't be sure, but before the College Entrance Test, I will definitely come back to participate in the College Entrance Test together with all of you. While I'm away, I hope that you will work hard and not disappoint me."

Su Xiang stared intently at Zhang Song's eyes. He wanted to see something from his eyes, but he failed. Right now, other than the endless vicissitudes of life in Zhang Song's eyes, he could not find any other clues. Regarding Zhang Song's understanding, Su Xiang still figured out a few reasons. He softly said: Are you going out to do full-time jobs and pay next semester's tuition? Didn't we agree that we will help you split the expenses? What kind of brain is this again?

He licked his dry lips and said indifferently: This time we can count on you, and next time we can count on you, but I can't count on you for your whole life. One year, and in less than a year, we will all have to go to university, and the fees for high school is nothing to the university, not to mention that we will have to stay for at least three to four more years. I know you're good to me, but I can't brag about your kindness to me as capital. For our friendship, I should go to work, so that I can look at you and raise my head in front of you. If you still regard me as your brother, then don't say anything more. I have already made my decision, and you know that what I have decided will not change.

Su Xiang did not say anything, but went forward and fiercely hugged Zhang Song. After a long while, the two of them separated. Su Xiang slowly said, "We did not misjudge you. Having you as my brother is my greatest fortune in this life. I will always protect this fortune, because it is the wealth that we nine brothers have in common.

Zhang Song nodded his head affirmatively. With this life and no afterlife, with the eight of you accompanying me, no matter how much trouble I encounter outside, I will still come back smiling and give all of you peace of mind.

Remember to give us a call when you are free. As long as you are safe and sound outside, we will miss you. Helpless, Su Xiang could only say a few blessings that were neither painful nor itchy.

Zhang Song grinned and said, I'm just going out for a while. It's not like I'm not coming back. I'll give you a message when we get there. I'll never forget you guys.

Su Xiang nodded his head but did not say anything else. Actually, he had too many things he wanted to say, but at this moment, his emotions had already broken his heart. He didn't know what he should say to this close friend of his. Because they knew each other so well, they knew that once Zhang Song made a decision, there would be no room for negotiation. At times like this, silence was the best expression of brotherhood and silently wishing was the best concern.

He personally went downstairs to see Zhang Song off from the neighborhood, and watched his brother, who had a miserable background, lived a short life, yet had experienced a lot, slowly walk away until he completely disappeared from the quiet and dark street. At this moment, Su Xiang, who thought that he was heartless, finally shed his precious tears. He silently prayed for the blessing of Zhang Song …

At midnight, Zhang Song returned to the dilapidated residential district that he had lived in for sixteen years. He was lying on his bed, playing with the first gift his mother had given him on his first birthday. It was also the only present he had so far. Staring at the green jade pendant, her young face revealed a bitter and self-deprecating smile.

At this moment, a pure white figure appeared in Zhang Song's mind. That frown, that smile, and that look in his eyes all caused Zhang Song to sink into deep thought.

She's been gone for nine months. Will she come back? Did she have a good nine months? Would she still remember me? Or have you long forgotten me? Feeling somewhat worried, Zhang Song silently thought in his heart.

His first meeting more than a year ago was on the day of his high school report. His first love was like a celestial goddess, almost luring away Zhang Song's soul.

Now that the two of them had separated, there was no news of the beauty. Although Zhang Song hated her, he declined to comment. In his heart, he loved her as always, and even though Zhang Song missed her day and night, he couldn't say it.

Night slowly slipped away as time flowed by.

Zhang Song tried his best to shake his head, trying to get rid of the complex emotions in his mind. Hatred? There must be, anyone who can face all these things and still say the words that do not hate; love? It was still going on. If he didn't love her, how could he think of her day and night?

Unknowingly, Zhang Song fell asleep in the midst of thousands of thoughts. In his hands, he was still holding the gift he planned to give to her that he deeply loved. Would that day come?

In his dream, Zhang Song was running all over the place. Was he looking for his beloved person? Or was he looking for the path of his life?

CHAPTER 2 - MU XINYI'S LOVE

Early in the morning, when a ray of gentle sunlight shone into the room from the window, the birds began to sing for the rest of the day. Zhang Song woke up to the chirping of the birds and began to do his daily chores.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Zhang Song went to the kitchen to light a fire and cook. After doing all the household chores, Zhang Song and his mother enjoyed a simple breakfast together.

After breakfast, he cleaned up the dishes, bid farewell to his mother and quickly drove to school with a bicycle that was neither new nor old. Zhang Song lived in a remote place. Plus, he had to help his mother with household chores in the morning. He had to get up an hour earlier than others every day in order to not be late for school.

After arriving at the school, he parked the car and headed straight for his class without stopping.

Xiao Jiu, you came quite early today. A 1.67-meter-tall, long-faced man greeted Zhang Song, who was walking towards his seat.

Sitting in his seat, Zhang Song said with a cold expression, Bao Han Yong, this is my 67th warning to you. Call me Zhang Song, don't scream like Jiu Jiu. Be careful that I might fall out with you. The man who started the conversation with Zhang Song was called Bao Han Yong, and just like Su Xiang, he was one of the sworn brothers with Zhang Song.

That day, the eight of them became sworn brothers with different surnames in front of the Second Master Guan. At that time, in order to be fair, they were ranked according to their age. In that case, no one had any reason to say that it wasn't fair. Unhappy? You were born too late. Thus, the Eldest Brother's seat was undoubtedly taken away by the nineteenth Elderly Zhang Fei, followed by Second Brother Zhang Jun, Third Brother Zhou Xinmin, Fourth Brother Zhang Han, Fifth Brother Zuo Zhixing. Su Xiang was the eighth oldest among them, while Bao Han Yong was the seventh oldest, while Zhang Song was the ninth oldest. Originally, there were nine people who had become sworn brothers, but because Tang Yanwen moved to another school, he failed to make it in time. However, Zhang Song and the others included him as well, so the title of sixth brother fell to Tang Yanwen, who hadn't shown up this time.

The man who was called Bao Han Yong by Zhang Song knew that Zhang Song was joking with him, but he didn't continue to call Xiao Jiu Zhang Song, listen to Su Xiang tell me in the morning that you're going out, is that true?

Zhang Song did not deny it, but neither did he answer Bao Han Yong. He only tilted his head and stared coldly at Su Xiang. If his eyes could turn into knives, Su Xiang would have been killed by Zhang Song dozens of times. You talk too much, if anything happens to you then you won't have any secrets. Let's see how I'll deal with you after school.

Su Xiang, who originally wanted to watch a good show between Zhang Song and Bao Han Yong, started sweating. It was not because of Zhang Song's words, but rather because of Zhang Song's cold and unfamiliar sharp eyes.

Without waiting for Su Xiang to explain, Zhang Song said with a serious expression, Not bad, if there are no accidents, I will go out in the next two weeks.

At this time, the eldest, Zhang Fei, who had been immersed in reading novels, suddenly raised his head and said: "Is it because of the fees? But you also know, the outside world isn't as simple as you and me think. There's no relationship, no education, no qualifications, it's very difficult to get a foothold in society, it's even very easy for people to get it into the market.

Zhang Jun and the others nodded in agreement.

Zhang Song smiled, and lightly said, I know you guys are worried about me, but I'm not young anymore, and it's time for me to go outside and have a look. The stage here is too small, and the outside world is our real stage. Zhang Song smiled, and lightly said, "I know you guys are worried about me, but I'm not young now, and it's time for me to go outside.

Everyone knew that Zhang Song was ready to leave, so they didn't say anything. They all silently congratulated their brother, who was very sensible and filial.

What was brotherhood? It was a blessing and concern that came from time to time. Although there were no words, the tacit understanding of the heart was the best way to express it.

Don't worry, take good care of yourself outside. We're here at home. At this moment, Zhang Fei and the rest of the seven promised Zhang Song in unison.

Zhang Song did not say anything else. This was because he knew that the word 'thank you' was unnecessary and foreign to the eight of them. What is a friend? What was a brother? This was a friend, this was a brother. They didn't need any words to decorate him, everything was so natural.

With the ringing of the bell, day after day of work — learning — began with their conversation.

So they repeated their daily lives, their studies, their fights.

The sun was setting in the west, and the day was about to go.

At this time, it was already the last class of the afternoon. According to the school's rules, there was a class meeting on Monday afternoon of every week, but the school's principal, in order to raise the school's promotion rate and improve the school's reputation, specifically stipulated that, if nothing major happened, the class would be changed to a self-study session every week.

In the self-study class, Zhang Fei spent an entire day to finish reading the neither thick nor thin novel in his hands. Closing the book, Zhang Fei suddenly said, The football tournament is starting today. It seems like today is Class One against Class Six. Tomorrow, our class will face Class 7. Are you ready?

Zhang Jun said confidently: Class 7? I can guarantee that before the end of the half, Class 7 will be completely defeated, and that the champion of the football league will only be us, Class 2.

Zhang Han and the others also joined in, and started to chat among themselves. However, they didn't realize that Zhang Song was holding a book and leaving his seat, coming to the last empty seat in the classroom. Zhang Song didn't realize that Zhang Song was holding a book and leaving his seat, coming to the last empty seat in the classroom, and didn't know what he was saying to the girl sitting there. The girl looked at him from time to time. She wanted to say something, but the words would not come out of her mouth. It was as if she didn't want to disturb his silence. Care? Or did he hate the fact that he was using class time to sleep? Only she knew, but who could she tell?

Only when Zhang Fei and the others changed the subject to Zhang Song did they realize that Zhang Song was not in their seats. Looking up, they found Zhang Song sleeping in the most front corner, and they did not wake him up to chat, instead letting him continue to sleep like this. With a sigh, they continued their conversation, but this time, their voices were much softer, for fear that their voices would be too loud and wake up the sleeping Zhang Song.

This sleep lasted a long time, or at least Zhang Song thought so. The bell did not wake him from his sleep until the end of the class. The students would meet each other in groups to eat at the originally noisy time after class. Perhaps it was because of the fear of the crowd. After all, the shadow of the famous human race, Zhang Song, and the others were all famous in the school for fighting, and there were even rumors that they were often together with gangsters outside the school. Not only did they not want to be in the same class as Zhang Song, they also wanted to avoid being tortured, so they did not want to anger this evil star, so they carefully left the classroom one by one.

Zhang Fei and Zhang Jun wanted to wake Zhang Song up and go to eat with him. Perhaps it was out of concern, but the girl beside Zhang Song stopped them in time. She whispered to them to leave and let Zhang Song continue sleeping. Everyone looked at the class monitor girl and then looked at Zhang Song, who was sleeping soundly. They were speechless and silently queued up to leave. Only Zhang Song and the girl were left in the classroom.

The girl's name was Mu Xinyi. Her temperament was cold and aloof like an orchid in a valley. She was publicly recognized as a beauty and was the current school beauty. At this moment, she wasn't angry that Zhang Song's sleep had delayed her meal time.

He had long hair that was mixed with traces of white hair. Perhaps it was because of the lack of nutrition, but his face was slightly pale. His handsome face combined with his slightly thin body all showed that he was a handsome man. Carefully staring at the peaceful and handsome youth, the young girl's heart didn't feel a pinch. Was it because she doted on the youth beside her? Or sympathy? It was hard to explain.

She asked herself if he had broken into her heart. Why was it that whenever she saw him, her heart would be moved? Why did his heart, which was as calm as water, throb at his appearance? But did he know that I loved him silently in my heart? Every time she saw him having fun with his girlfriend, she felt the urge to bleed. Sometimes she even imagined that the girl in his arms was her. She still clearly remembered that day a year ago, at noon, he suddenly walked in front of her and kissed her. Although his actions made her blush, she was very happy and even wanted to hug him. Every time she went out to fight, she worried about him, worried that he would get hurt. The last time she saw him actually fighting with someone over someone who didn't even love him, she felt a pain in her heart, but more than that, she was worried that he would get hurt again. Seeing him get beaten up so badly made her want to go up and stop him. When she saw him finally abandon the girl he loved in front of the whole school, she was very happy and thought she would have a chance to be with him again, but she didn't think that ever since, he would completely freeze her heart apart from those so-called brothers of his. He didn't want to talk to anyone too much, and he changed, just like a walking corpse who had lost its soul. However, her heart had never changed. Even now, she still silently loved him from the side as usual.

The infinitely gentle thread of Zhang Song's hair that was messy due to sleep Mu Xinyi's eyes glowed with tears as she softly told Zhang Song, My whole life I have yearned to be well-kept, properly settled, and carefully preserved. Free me from shock, free me from suffering, free me from wandering around, free me from nothing to rely on. And that person I have found, is my beloved you. But why can't you find out how much I love you? Do you know, even though I love you deeply, the exhaustion of love, the pain of love, I still love you just as much as I did before.

Zhang Song, who was originally asleep, seemed to have heard Mu Xinyi's confession and slightly moved his body. He scared Mu Xinyi so much that she hurriedly wiped away the tears that were about to flow down her face.

Just when Mu Xinyi was done with all the concealment work, Zhang Song woke up at the right time. Glancing at the classroom which only he and Mu Xinyi were in, he spoke as if he was talking to Mu Xinyi, but at the same time to himself, It seems that the class has ended.

The speaker has no heart, the listener has no heart. Mu Xinyi thought that Zhang Song was talking to her. Her fragrant tongue lightly said, Yes, they have all gone to eat. You have already slept for an hour and a half.

Zhang Song tilted his head and looked at the current school beauty up close. He suddenly said, What's wrong? Your eyes are red.

Mu Xinyi tried her best to cover it up and lied, No, no. It's just that there was a bug that flew into my eye just now. It hurt.

Zhang Song nodded and changed the topic first, You've slept here for so long, so it'll affect your eating time. What are you eating for? Coincidentally, I'm going down now, so I brought it back for you.

Mu Xinyi felt sweetness in her heart as she thought to herself, Is he concerned about me? Although he had changed, he was still as considerate and caring as before. She shook her head at Zhang Song and said gently, I'm not hungry, so there's no need to trouble you. I'll buy some bread after the evening reading.

Zhang Song saw her shake her head and immediately frowned. He didn't even let Mu Xinyi oppose and said, I'll go buy some bread for you. With that, he prepared to stand up.

Mu Xinyi had always loved the lonely Zhang Song, but would she get his love? Was it true that her love, Zhang Song, did not know or pretended not to know? Could Zhang Song give her a complete relationship? Could you draw a perfect end to the love hidden for more than a year?

CHAPTER 3 - NEW START

A gentle breeze blew away all the haze, sending out hope and blessings.

Just as Zhang Song was about to leave, Zhang Fei, Zhang Jun, and a few others walked into the classroom with a box of food in their hands. Seeing Zhang Song walking towards him, Zhang Fei took the lead and said, Where are you planning to go? I brought you food.

Zhang Song did not say anything and directly took away the box of rice and returned to Mu Xinyi's side. He said in a colorless tone, You can eat first. I'll go down for a while and I'll be back soon. When I return, do not let me see that the food has not been touched. It was like caring, but more like an order.

Zhang Song waved his hand at Zhang Fei and the others. Under the astonished gazes of Zhang Fei and the others, he ran downstairs.

When Mu Xinyi saw this scene, she smiled from the bottom of her heart. She opened the lunchbox and buried her head in it, gracefully swallowing the lunchbox that Zhang Song had given her.

Zhang Fei and the others were confused. They thought to themselves, Why is Zhang Song on the streets today? Could he have figured out everything when he woke up? Or did he intentionally pretend to be sleeping? After we all left, what did he say to Mu Xinyi?

At this moment, some of the students had finished eating and were walking towards their class. With too many questions, Zhang Fei and the others walked out into the corridor and started to use 'drug'.

The word drug addict was a special term given to them by their female classmates. Besides fighting, playing football, teasing, and picking up girls, drug taking was also a daily job for Zhang Fei and Zhang Song. Although there was an inscription saying that students were not allowed to smoke in the school, these eight people did not put the teacher in their eyes at all. Even if they were caught by the teacher, they had nothing to fear. The teachers were helpless against this. They could only turn a blind eye and pretend not to see. After all, they were all part of the school's royal family, and it would be better for them not to cause more trouble. The so-called royal family refers to the school teachers who are their relatives.

A cigarette was only half smoked when Zhang Fei and the others saw Zhang Song, with bread in one hand and a bottle of Nongfu Mountain Spring in the other, flash past the seven of them and enter the classroom.

In the classroom, Mu Xinyi was still eating when she saw Zhang Song passing her another piece of bread and water. Without waiting for Mu Xinyi to speak, Zhang Song quickly said, Eat slowly, it's still early. With that, without waiting for Mu Xinyi's reply, Zhang Song headed for the corridor.

Mu Xinyi stood up and looked at Zhang Song's lonely back. Her heart was very complicated. At this time, Su Xiang took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Zhang Song. Zhang Song took it and Bao Han Yong lit it for Zhang Song. When Mu Xinyi saw this, she became angry and really wanted to give Su Xiang and Bao Han Yong a good beating. He thought to himself, What's so good about smoking? It was all because of you bad guys that Zhang Song was broken, you bastards.

Turning around, Mu Xinyi blankly looked at the food Zhang Song had specially bought for her. At this moment, she smiled. It was for no other reason but his concern for her. As her thoughts returned to the present, she gathered up her bread and water, along with the books that Zhang Song had come to sleep in during the afternoon and had left unread by the table, and placed them on top of her book.

After doing this, Mu Xinyi opened her book and began to browse through the textbooks. However, she didn't have the mood to read anymore. Her mind was filled with Zhang Song. At this moment, she was just holding the book in a daze.

Zhang Song took a deep breath and exhaled the smoke from his nose and mouth. Why didn't you wake me up? he asked.

Zhou Xinmin took the lead and said, It's not that we didn't wake you up, we were just about to wake you up and go eat with you when our Class Rep Mu stopped us. He said something about how it was difficult for you to rest, and told us not to disturb your rest. From the looks of it, our Mu Xinyi is very concerned about you. "

Zhang Song did not think so. He pouted and said, Is it fun? If you don't speak, no one will take you for a mute. But in his heart, he thought to himself, Fool, why waste time on me? I'm not worth it at all."

Zhang Fei tried to smooth things over. Alright, alright. Don't joke around anymore. Everyone hurry up and go in. As he spoke, he gestured for everyone to enter the classroom.

Everyone was helpless. They knew that Zhou Xinmin had said the wrong thing and had nothing to say, so they could only leave. Only Zhang Song and Zhang Fei had no intention of moving.

After everyone had left, Zhang Fei let out a long breath, Why are you still unwilling to walk out of the shadow of the past? Are you satisfied that no one dares to approach you? Why not try to forget the past and face the future? I can see that Mu Xinyi has deep feelings for you, so why don't you try to accept her?

Zhang Song shook his head and let out a sad smile. He stared at Zhang Fei and sighed. After a long time, he said slowly, I am not worried about Yu Xin's departure. The reason why I have become like this is not only because of Yu Xin. A nobody like me, who has no money or power, on what basis can I have love, on what basis can I guarantee their happiness? It's because I can't give them the happiness they want that I keep running away from it.

Zhang Fei nodded helplessly and said, I understand all that you've said, but what can you do about it? What can it change? Escape did not solve everything, and what he had to face always had to be faced with. I just hope to see a happy Zhang Song, not a cold-faced and cold-faced you."

Zhang Song said, Happy? To be honest, although I didn't express it, but I feel really happy when I'm with you. It's just that I'm used to using this kind of appearance to hide myself. "

Hearing that, Zhang Fei sighed in his heart, and said with concern: "Why do you need to go through so much trouble? I know you like to hide everything in your heart and never talk to anyone, but if you do this, it will only bring you more pain and pressure. Listen to your big brother for once.

Zhang Song turned around and looked at the setting sun as it was about to fall to the horizon. He said softly, "A dream that has lasted a thousand years. When one wakes up today, they can forget about the Three Thousand Ocean of Memories and never look back.

Zhang Fei looked at this negative brother of his and said slowly, But the reason why the human world is the human world is because it doesn't exist. If, sometimes, there is no hope, but as long as we treat each other sincerely, we can have the chance to keep our happiness.

Zhang Song heard Zhang Fei's words and his heart skipped a beat. He thought, That's right. There is no hope in this world, and even less so if there is no hope.

Four eyes met, and Zhang Song seemed to want to say something. His lips moved, but in the end he did not speak. He then turned around and left. When he reached the entrance of the classroom, a sentence came out of his mouth, No matter how nice the memory is, it is only a memory of the past. I will bury the sadness of the tears and start my life from now on.

The words slowly drifted with the air, drifting into Zhang Fei's ears, floating into Zhang Song's heart, and finally drifting away into the blue sky and white clouds.

Upon hearing Zhang Song's words, Zhang Fei was overjoyed. As he walked, he muttered to himself, This boy has finally become enlightened. My words were not in vain. Haha …"

When the evening class ended, the sky had already darkened. A day's worth of night had begun to descend upon the earth once again. Lights were shining brightly, illuminating the school building as if it were day. In the evening, the teacher came into the classroom with a set of test papers. Without any doubt, it was another test.

During the exam, the classroom was completely silent. All that could be heard were the sounds of the pen writing on the exam paper. The teacher was sitting at the podium, staring at the students who were working on their questions. From time to time, he would walk down the podium and patrol the corridors. It could be said that this teacher was a very responsible teacher.

Time slowly passed by. In the blink of an eye, many people had already stopped writing to review the papers. When the bell rang to signal the end of the exam, the teacher began to collect the papers. When it was over, the teacher said, Later on, everyone will study by themselves for the last period. He then left the classroom with the test papers and headed towards the office building, leaving behind a group of excited students.

Although they were just self-study, a small portion of the students took advantage of their free time to seriously study. Most of the students used this time to chat with their classmates and friends, just a series of celebrities, movies, TV dramas, cosmetics, branded clothes, cell phones, magazines, novels, etc.

The most outrageous thing was that Su Xiang and the others used their study time to play poker with Bao Han Yong, Zhang Jun, and Zhang Han. According to Su Xiang's words, This test is over, we should also relax. And Zhang Fei was still reading his favorite novel as usual. Zhou Xinmin and Zuo Zhixing played chess, leaving Zhang Song alone in the dark.

For geographical reasons, Zhang Song had to switch seats with Zhang Han. Sitting in his seat, Zhang Song remembered the book he had given Mu Xinyi when he went to bed in the afternoon, < 5,000 Years >. Feeling bored, Zhang Song didn't even think before standing up and walking toward Mu Xinyi's seat.

Mu Xinyi never thought that Zhang Song would come here. She, who was immersed in her book, was shocked by Zhang Song's actions.

Zhang Song held the book and lightly said, I guess I didn't scare you.

Mu Xinyi's face was covered in peach blossoms. She shyly shook her head and said, No.

Zhang Song acknowledged and prepared to leave. However, Mu Xinyi interrupted him. You just sit here and watch. Can you still watch when you go back? As he said that, he pointed at Su Xiang and the others who were busy playing cards.

Zhang Song followed Mu Xinyi's gaze and looked back at the four people who were playing cards. After a moment of helplessness, he gently said, Thank you.

Sitting up, Zhang Song was reading a book with only one page left. From time to time he would look at Mu Xinyi. Mu Xinyi also secretly looked at Zhang Song from time to time, and when their eyes met, Mu Xinyi immediately blushed and turned her head, pretending not to look at Zhang Song. Zhang Song saw everything, but he did not say anything, nor did he express anything. He only pretended that he did not notice that Ren Muyi was still in this state.

CHAPTER 4 - LATE LOVE

Quiet, quiet. Everything seemed so quiet. The silence between the two of them was so quiet that it was hard to breathe. Firstly, it was Mu Xinyi who could not stand it. She broke the silence between the two and said nervously, You, what do you think about tonight's exam?

Not bad. Zhang Song replied calmly.

Oh, then do you have the confidence to get first place this time? Mu Xinyi asked without giving up.

I don't know. Zhang Song said as he always did.

Mu Xinyi responded with an 'oh'. She didn't know how to continue the topic. Her mind was quickly running. Originally, she had too many topics to talk about, but now, she was so nervous that she couldn't say them.

Silence. Everything returned to its starting point. It was as if they couldn't find a common topic for the conversation to continue. This continued for nearly ten minutes. Unwilling, Mu Xinyi once again started a conversation, Are, are you free tonight?

What's the matter? Zhang Song's expression remained the same.

Nothing, just asking.

Oh. With a simple word, he ended the conversation. However, he did not give an answer.

Seeing Zhang Song being indifferent, Mu Xinyi became extremely anxious. Thus, he picked up a pen and paper, wrote a few words, and nervously and expectantly handed it to Zhang Song.

Looking at the paper slip that Mu Xinyi handed to him, Zhang Song frowned. However, he still took the paper and opened it. He saw a beautiful word printed in front of his eyes. Would you send me home after school?

When he didn't answer, Zhang Song put the note back into the book, raised his arm to look at the time, and then continued to read.

Mu Xinyi, who had been waiting for Zhang Song's answer, suddenly felt her heart ache when she saw this scene. Two lines of clear tears could not help but fall from her eyes. He thought to himself, I've already put down my girl's modesty and expressed my goodwill to you, but you still don't appreciate my kindness. Don't tell me I'm really not as good as Chen Yuxin?

Unknowingly, Zhang Song had already handed over a tissue.

Mu Xinyi took the tissue, but this time she cried even harder. Her tears fell like rain.

Seeing this, Zhang Song picked up the book and stood up. He threw down the words, Call me then and returned to his seat. The reason why Zhang Song left was because he was afraid that his classmates would hear Mu Xinyi's crying. Furthermore, it was said in the ancient language: Only vile people and women in this world are hard to raise. Actually, there was another worry in his heart, and that was the gossip of others. He knew very well that the severity of the rumors could actually kill someone.

When Mu Xinyi heard the words Zhang Song said before he left, her heart was incomparably sweet. Her tears also stopped very quickly. Right now, she could only hope that the class would end soon.

Five minutes before the end of class, Zhang Song and the other eight students left the classroom as usual. The moment they left the classroom, everyone lit up their cigarettes. Su Xiang blew out a mouthful of smoke and said, Everyone says that after dinner, a cigarette will be used to compete with a living immortal. But I think that after class, a cigarette will be more energetic. Haha.

Zhang Jun did not forget to strike a blow, You're the only one who knows how to play. I didn't even see you get a girlfriend.

That's right, why don't you find us a sister-in-law one day. Zhou Xinmin and the others also joined in the commotion.

I think that Ye Xuan in our class isn't bad. He's quite gentle and cute, and he also likes to learn. He should be more than enough to suit you. Zhang Jun seriously said.

Everyone started to talk back and forth about Su Xiang. Only Zhang Song was currently the quietest. He quietly smoked as he looked at the deep darkness in front of him.

At this moment, the bell rang, signaling the end of the day's lesson.

Within three minutes, the classroom was empty. The students were rushing towards their dorm room like wild horses without their reins.

Mu Xinyi tidied up her books and walked to Zhang Song's side with her schoolbag in hand. She whispered, About that, can we go now?

Zhang Song threw away his cigarette and said to Zhang Fei and the others, Wait for me in the store outside. Then he said to Mu Xinyi, Let's go.

Watching Zhang Song and Mu Xinyi leave, Zhang Jun, Su Xiang, and the others were all dumbfounded. They secretly asked Zhang Song in their hearts, when did he get together with Mu Xinyi? Only Zhang Fei understood what was going on and nodded his head. Looking at the stunned expressions of the other six, Zhang Fei scolded loudly, What are you still looking at? Let's go down. Let's go, these cowards.

Oh, oh, oh! Everyone reacted and followed Zhang Fei out of the school.

Walking on the road without saying anything, Zhang Song was already used to being taciturn, but Mu Xinyi's heart was burning with anxiety. She finally made an appointment with Zhang Song, so she couldn't waste this rare opportunity. Seeing that Zhang Song didn't say anything, Mu Xinyi first broke the awkward situation. Thank you for sending me back tonight. I'm very happy.

Zhang Song was indifferent and did not respond. He only focused on walking as if he had something on his mind.

Looking at the man she had admired for a long time, her pale face carried a kind of melancholy, coldness, and vicissitudes of life. How much pain did her heart ache, but what could she do? Every time when he needed his concern the most, he could not accompany him by his side. He could only peep at him from the corner, worrying for him, crying for him and feeling sorry for him.

Are you still thinking about Chen Yu Xin? For some reason, Mu Xinyi didn't even think before blurting it out. However, the moment she said it, she regretted it. She regretted not mentioning anything, so why did she mention the scar in his heart that could not be opened?

There was no reply, but Mu Xinyi noticed Zhang Song's body slightly tremble. Although it was very brief, she still noticed it carefully.

"She's gone, the fact that no one can change it. Why should you worry about someone who betrayed you? Do you know how sad I am for you to do this? For more than a year, how many days and nights, I can't help but daydream that the girl accompanying you is me, laughing with you, crying with you. I like you. From the very beginning, I've already liked you. Although my love is very painful, I still did not hesitate to love you.

At this time, Zhang Song had already stopped his steps. He turned his head to look at Mu Xinyi and said in a low voice, My whole life, I have yearned to be well-kept, well-prepared, and carefully preserved. Free me from shock, free me from suffering, free me from wandering around, free me from nothing to rely on. And that person I have found, is my beloved you.

At that time, Mu Xinyi's entire body shook and her mind was in complete turmoil. Her mind constantly echoed, Did he hear what I said to him?

When their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze. Zhang Song and Mu Xinyi seemed to have been immobilized by someone else, and the body of Mu Xinyi, who originally looked like a fish that had fallen from the sky, was suddenly shaken. She felt that her mind was in a mess, and she was about to collapse. Tears that had been hidden in his heart for more than a year gushed out like a dam breaking. It had been more than a year, more than a year. The only man he loved in his heart, he had finally confessed to him bravely.

Her teary eyes were like the glistening pearls that a mermaid would drop as they endlessly rolled down her cheeks, from her cheeks to her clothes on the ground. Zhang Song looked at the person in front of him. The eyes of the originally cold and strong person who always appeared to be moist, finally melted the ice in his heart at this moment. He, who had never shed a tear before, finally shed the first tear in his life today. This was love. Whether it was a year or a thousand years, deep down in her heart, there was always a place for her that others couldn't reach. But no one knew, only he knew.

The two of them had always been unwilling to break the tranquility of this moment, fearing that if they moved, they would break this dream.

More than a year, more than a year, he finally had to face the person he had been looking forward to day and night. She was still beautiful, but now she was different. Zhang Song looked at the bitter expression on her mature face and blamed himself in his heart. He didn't know how to face it. For the past year, he had been constantly avoiding her feelings. He was afraid because he knew he couldn't afford it.

After calming himself down, the incomparably gentle yet slightly trembling voice slowly rose up: Are you sure you really like me?

Mu Xinyi's body swayed. She felt like her mind was in chaos and she almost fell down. Tears once again rolled down her cheeks. She was suffering, but she had never told anyone about it. She did not say why, but only waited for him, because she believed that one day, he would sincerely accept her. For him, it was all worth it.

Looking at the man she loved, she really wanted to throw herself into his arms, but she was worried that he would refuse. She remembered that when she first met him, when she wanted to enter his world, he had already shut his heart tightly, making it impossible for her to enter his inner world. After a year, he had been waiting for this moment. After hearing this question, all the grievances from a year ago were completely vented out, and he could no longer control them. He threw himself into Zhang Song's embrace and hugged him tightly, saying, Sang, I love you. For more than a year, I've been thinking about you all the time. I hope you can accept me. I am so happy to be able to put aside everything and embrace you.

Zhang Song felt a stabbing pain in his heart. He stood there like a log and said absentmindedly, I'm sorry, I've always been avoiding your love for me. Perhaps from the beginning I wasn't suitable for you, I've shamed my love for you, and I've already become unworthy for you to love.

I don't care if you have other women in your heart. I only care about having three hundred and sixty-five days of the year and ten days of time to stay by your side is enough as long as I can see you often and know that you are also worried about me. It is enough that I don't want you to leave me.

Zhang Song looked at her haggard face, and he remembered all the things that had happened in the past. This seemingly stubborn girl was so concerned about him, looking at him from afar, looking at him with that kind of resentful and loving gaze.

Should he give her a satisfactory answer now? Zhang Song struggled in his heart as he suddenly felt his hand sink. He did not know when Zhang Fei had appeared in front of him. He blinked at him before quietly disappearing into the distance. It turned out that he was the one who had pressed Zhang Song's hand down. Zhang Song, who was completely unprepared, had successfully hugged Mu Xinyi with both of his hands.

Zhang Song sighed in his heart. Since that's the case, why should I look for trouble? Don't worry about anything else. Just hug, hug with all your might! Let this person who has been waiting for him for more than a year lie in his arms happily!

After waiting for more than a year, Mu Xinyi finally welcomed Zhang Song. Perhaps this was love. No matter what, it was always the same. But could Mu Xinyi, who was in Zhang Song's embrace, really get the happiness she wanted? Would Zhang Song really be able to keep this love well? Could the two of them walk like princes and princesses in fairy tales until their hair turned white?

CHAPTER 5 - EMOTIONAL CONFESSION

The second day, the second class finally welcomed the first match of this season's football league. A 90 minute football match was just as Zhang Jun had said in the classroom yesterday. It was a 4: 0 victory in the first half, and a 7: 0 victory in the entire stadium.

Back to the locker room, everyone took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and ran happily to the classroom.

Coming, coming. A female classmate, who was keeping watch at the classroom entrance, excitedly ran into the classroom and shouted.

When the football players stepped into the classroom, the whole class laughed and shouted loudly, The football wargod has returned! The second class will definitely win!

The lively and cheerful Zhang Jun rushed to the podium and shouted to the students below: This year's champion is self-evident, it must be our class two. When that time comes, all of you better cheer for us. Your cheers will be the motivation for us to work hard.

The other students also joined in and jeered, Of course! How could we miss such an exciting match? Haha, hahaha."

Time flew by as the football team and students laughed and laughed. A week passed in the blink of an eye. Today was the day Zhang Song went to the hospital to draw out the steel bar.

Around 9 in the morning, Zhang Fei, Su Xiang, Mu Xinyi, and a few others walked together with Zhang Song to the City Hospital.

You guys don't have to accompany me. It's just drawing steel bars. It's not like we're having surgery, so there's no need to waste time and manpower. Zhang Song hesitated for a long time as he faced his group of friends.

Zhang Jun shouted loudly, We are already at the hospital, and you still want to chase us away. The more you tell us to leave, the more we will not leave. We want to see the scene of you crying bitterly. Haha! As he spoke, he didn't forget to laugh maniacally.

Haha, haha. Everyone laughed along with Zhang Jun.

Zhang Song bade farewell to this group of shameless people. Ignoring the ridicule of the crowd, he went straight to the clinic.

Upon entering the clinic, Zhang Song saw an old man in his mid-thirties. The white-clothed elder wearing glasses smiled and greeted Zhang Song as he gestured for them to take a seat.

How is it? You're going to draw steel bars today. Are you ready? The old man kindly asked Zhang Song.

Yes, it can be taken out anytime. Sorry to trouble you, Doctor. Zhang Song said with a serious expression.

The old man smiled. That's good. If you continue to prepare, I will immediately arrange someone to get the steel bars for you. You guys just wait outside the door. It won't be long. " The old man first stared at Zhang Song, then shifted his gaze to Zhang Fei, Mu Xinyi, and the others.

Hearing the old man's words, everyone exchanged a few words with Zhang Song before walking out of the room. Only Zhang Song and the old doctor were left inside.

Sitting on the chair, Zhang Song quietly waited. After the old man made a call, he said a few words and then hung up the phone. He got up and said to Zhang Song, Let's go, everything has been arranged over there. With that, he led Zhang Song outside. Along the way, they met Zhang Fei, Zhang Jun, and the others, but Zhang Song didn't exchange a single word with them. As if he didn't see them, he walked past them.

About an hour later, Zhang Song, who was sweating profusely and his face was pale, was supported by the elder to the clinic.

How is it? Did you get it? Why are you so pale? Mu Xinyi looked at the old man and Zhang Song and ran to Zhang Song's side as a condition. She held Zhang Song and asked anxiously and nervously. The moment Mu Xinyi stood up, the crowd also saw it. They tacitly followed behind Mu Xinyi and arrived at Zhang Song's side.

Zhang Song tried his best to resist the pain, trying his best to appear natural. Yes, it has already been taken out. It's fine now.

The elder opened his mouth at the right time, It has already been taken out, but we need to take some time to recuperate. Don't let the weight on our arms go to waste, for fear of recurrence.

Zhang Song said gratefully, Yes, I know. Thank you, Doctor.

With everyone scrambling to get out of the way, they finally agreed on Mu Xinyi supporting Zhang Song as they majestically left the hospital.

Due to the football match, Zhang Fei, Zhang Jun, Su Xiang, and the others were busy with physical training, and in the next few days, Mu Xinyi took care of Zhang Song. These few days were also the longest for the two of them. She dressed him like the most ordinary thing a wife does for her husband; he tidied up her tousled sideburns like a husband showing gentleness to his wife...

Under the meticulous care of Mu Xinyi, Zhang Song finally returned to his previous state.

The days passed quickly in their merriment. There were only a few days left before the football semi-finals. Although Zhang Jun and his team looked relaxed on the surface, those who could enter the semi-finals were definitely not a mediocre team, and their strength was unquestionable. Therefore, they still used the time they could spare to strengthen their physical training. It was not for anything else, but for the title of Champion. It was just for the sake of being the strongest and the best.

However, just as everyone was preparing for the championship battle, Zhang Song was at a loss for many days. In the end, he decided to leave and secretly bought a train ticket five days later without Zhang Fei, Mu Xinyi, and the others knowing anything. Five days later, it would be the final day of the football tournament. Zhang Song chose that day because he didn't want to see the crowd bid him farewell.

As expected, after the semifinals, Zhang Fei
