The vibration traveled down the fishing rod, instantly scaring the fish away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dammit! Who's bothering me now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Qiang cursed as he took out his phone, but the message notification on the screen nearly made him drop his rod in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yao Mingyue requests to add you as a friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Qiang had a foreboding feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But out of respect for his friendship with his buddy, he still clicked accept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't had the chance to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could, a message came through from the other end of the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Xu Musen with you?

Of course, it's amazing,\" Xu Musen laughed as he replied, taking the opportunity to feed her a popcorn kernel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan then turned to look at Xu Musen's cheek and after a while, she said, \"You're amazing too. Whatever I want, you can provide for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen coughed awkwardly, thankful that they were surrounded by kids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And no matter how amazing it is, it's still fake, but your kindness to me is real,\" she said earnestly, without any other emotion, pure and touching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen too looked into her clear eyes, gave a gentle smile, and quietly accompanied her through the movie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you keep being so casually flirtatious, you're bound to be conned into a relationship one of these days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the movie, An Nuannuan marked another check on her notebook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wanted to ask earlier, what are you writing in your notebook?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't tell you yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan put away her notebook, and that day, they strolled around, had a meal, and watched a movie together...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had gotten dark outside, and there might even be rain later in the evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Musen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've always taken me home before. How about I take you home today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As An Nuannuan spoke, her fair face tinged with a bit of pink and a hint of nervousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was she really oblivious to what it meant to take a boy home?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen looked into her clear eyes and found that he couldn't seem to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How will you get back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aunty Xiang will pick me up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After looking at each other for a while, Xu Musen slowly smiled and nodded, \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two took the bus back, jostling together, sitting close, not speaking, but both hoping the bus would slow down, even just a little more...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They arrived at the entrance of the residential complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen pushed An Nuannuan, pointing to one of the buildings, \"This is my home, thank you for bringing me back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he said this, he squatted down in front of An Nuannuan, looking into her eyes, \"Nuannuan, do you have something you want to tell me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan pursed her lips, for the first time struggling to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Musen, I'm afraid I won't be able to play with you anymore, my grandma wants me to go to Hu Hai for treatment, and it will take at least a month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan said, lifting her head to look at Xu Musen with a somewhat sad expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen let out a sigh and smiled, \"I thought it was something else, you scared me. This is good news. A month later when we meet again, maybe we can walk out and play together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, will you wait for me in Hu Hai?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light in An Nuannuan's eyes brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen's thoughts were firm, \"Hu Hai University?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It looks like you're going to change from being my last high school friend to becoming my first college friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen's speech was slow, yet it made An Nuannuan's eyes dance and her chest flutter out of rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out a little booklet in her hand, which read:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Best Friend Cultivation Manual!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shopping together (✓)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eating together (✓)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching movies together (✓)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparing a gift for one another\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing each other home (✓)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hug\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was on the first page, An Nuannuan took something out of her bag and presented it to Xu Musen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen took it and found, to his astonishment, it was an Ultraman Tiga transformation stick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was momentarily dazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Musen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan looked at him, gently patting her legs sitting in the wheelchair, her tone sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think I'm like you, we seem to have suffered some setbacks, but I believe we can definitely defeat these little monsters!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her words were childishly amusing, yet the earnestness in her eyes left one speechless for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen gripped the Ultraman Tiga transformation stick tightly in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, he also understood somewhat the feeling of becoming light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, An Nuannuan was also a beam of light to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, this is the best gift I've received in a long time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen held it tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan also checked off 'preparing a gift' on her list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, only a hug remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two looked at each other, An Nuannuan somewhat avoiding his gaze, fiddling with her fingers, Xu Musen smiling at the corner of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I'll look forward to our next meeting, and to seeing An Nuannuan who has defeated the little monsters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen squatted in front of her, spreading open his arms towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan's cheeks heated up as she slowly opened her arms and hugged him briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a hazy rain began to fall from the sky, but the two of them felt particularly warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This embrace, unrelated to passion,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Contained only the most sincere wishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Xiang's car was parked outside the complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the two embrace in the drizzling rain, she too was touched and smiled mildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan got into the car and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen stood there watching the direction she left for quite a while, until he started to feel wet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was probably going to be a stormy night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen turned around, only to see another blurry figure standing under the eaves of a nearby house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As raindrops splashed, the two approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen looked at her; the girl wore only a thin short-sleeve shirt, already drenched from the rain she apparently had stood in for a long time, holding Xu Musen's freshly washed jacket in her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I brought you your clothes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue took the initiative to speak, even with a smile, but her eyes were hollow with blackness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two stood in silence for a while, the rain growing heavier, nearly obscuring each other's faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you two, dating?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue asked calmly again, but her voice was shaking uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen looked at her and at last just shook his head, \"Go back and take a shower, don't catch a cold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue stared fixedly at him, with rain washing over her eyes, falling drop by drop, indistinguishable from tears or rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly she laughed twice, staggering, staring at Xu Musen with all the light gone from her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Musen, have you forgotten what you said before? ...
