Chapter 265

~5 min read 836 words

She knew it clearly in her heart.

But she knew even more clearly.

That her feelings for Zhong Wanjun were very pure.

Just an ordinary friendship.

It was precisely because of this.

That she could not accept Zhong Wanjun's affection.

"Actually, you don't have to deliberately avoid me," Zhong Wanjun said.

【151】The Young Lady hasn't come home this late, shouldn't I come out and look for her?

Lei Ting looked at Zhong Wanjun, the feeling in her heart beyond words.

She only regarded Zhong Wanjun as the best friend from childhood to adulthood.

She would also care about Zhong Wanjun.

Would want Zhong Wanjun to be happy.

For her.

Zhong Wanjun was a friend.

Even more, family.

But any extra, other feelings.

Truly did not exist.

She, toward Zhong Wanjun.

Did not have the affection between a man and a woman.

Although she could faintly sense.

That Zhong Wanjun seemed to be a little different toward her.

But.

She chose not to care.

Because if she did care.

She wouldn't be able to interact with him the way she usually did.

She really was avoiding it.

As long as she pretended she didn't know anything.

She wouldn't think about anything.

She knew.

She was very selfish. "Four Five Seven"

But she didn't know how to handle it.

Nor did she know how to face Zhong Wanjun's feelings.

She couldn't respond.

So she simply didn't think about anything.

And didn't do anything.

Zhong Wanjun turned his head to look at Lei Ting: "Do you feel that because you can't like me, you feel very guilty?"

Lei Ting pressed her lips together, not knowing what to say.

Her innermost thoughts.

Were always hit precisely by Zhong Wanjun's words.

Actually, Zhong Wanjun knew everything.

He was just the same as her.

Both of them were just playing dumb.

Zhong Wanjun gave a somewhat self-mocking smile: "Actually, you don't have to be like this. Although when you fell for Lin Yu, it was equivalent to rejecting me, I just hope you can keep things the way they were with me, keep the distance we should have had originally, keep... the fact that you can't like me, yet still treat me as a good friend."

Lei Ting remained silent.

Zhong Wanjun turned around: "As long as it stays like this, it's already very good. I'm leaving first."

He turned around and started walking.

Behind him.

Came the pleasant sound of a piano.

Zhong Wanjun closed his eyes, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

He had originally wanted to tell Lei Ting about the matter of Lin Yu possibly being someone from ten years ago.

But seeing Lei Ting's face.

He found he couldn't say it.

Whether Lin Yu belonged to this time and space.

Whether he came from ten years ago.

These... were they important?

What was important was.

Lin Yu has already won Lei Ting's heart.

Even if it were to be exposed.

It should be Lei Ting who exposes it.

He...

So he temporarily withdrew.

Lei Ting played the piano, and Zhong Wanjun's figure had already vanished into the night.

Suddenly.

Someone sat down beside her.

She was quite surprised: "Lin Yu? Why are you here?"

"The young lady hasn't come home this late, so shouldn't I come out and look for you?" Lin Yu rested his hand on the keys. "How about a 'Serenade'?"

Lei Ting couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect you to play piano too. Well then, I'll make an exception and let you touch my piano just this once."

The melodious piano music rose, drifting farther and farther on the evening breeze.

Lei Ting tilted her head slightly, gazing at her beloved's profile.

Lin Yu also sensed her gaze, turned his head, and met her eyes.

The moonlight shone in reflection.

Glasses clinked and toasts crossed.

In this moment.

It was eternity.

Zhong Wanjun listened from afar to the piano music steeped in tenderness, watching the two beneath the piano pavilion.

At this moment.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart how well-matched they were.

Finally.

He stepped along to the piano music.

Slowly drifting away.

Wang Da Dong frantically tidied his school uniform.

Black Dragon complained that his memory was getting worse and worse.

He arrived at school and ran into Peach.

"Wang Da Dong, you led Bala High School to win the tug-of-war yesterday—amazing." Peach praised him.

Wang Da Dong scratched his head: "Tug-of-war? Was there a tug-of-war yesterday?"

"Yesterday you fought twenty people all by yourself and still won. Your classmates even lifted you up and tossed you in the air—don't you remember?" Peach found it very strange.

"Was there?" Wang Da Dong was very confused. "Also… do we know each other? Who… are you?"

"I'm Peach, the one who came to sit in on Ultimate Class 1 for half a day yesterday! No wait, you… what's going on with you? How do you not remember anything?" Peach felt Wang Da Dong didn't seem to be acting.
