    It felt like the memories of last night’s grape arbor had become an unfinished dream, stuck in my head. I got up, rubbed my temples, and felt a bit dizzy. My ears were buzzing like a flute.

    After finishing breakfast, I strolled out the door. The streets were damp and humid, and each step felt like I was trudging through a wet sponge. I walked across the bridge spanning the river, and all I could see was the vast, open sky. The clouds were layered, with a light blue hue, and the wind was picking up, making the clouds seem like they were moving. The pedestrians on the bridge were shielding themselves from the wind, trying to avoid the sudden gusts.

    Liu Chang’an had a habit of walking with his head in the clouds, making it very normal for him to collide with electronic bicycles or motorcycles on this road. It was like he was asking to be hit.

    But today was different. He checked the time and saw that he was walking a bit faster than usual. When he arrived at the school gate, Huang Shan was finally not loitering around.

    As it was the two-day break before the semester exam, the high school students still had to attend classes, and summer break was still about a month away.

    For the graduating students, only those who planned to continue their education would truly have a summer break. Those who were about to enter society could take it easy and enjoy their break.

    However, for students who had struggled to get into a top school like this one, the possibility of giving up on their education was tiny. After all, this school had a high admission rate of over 90%, just like the other three top schools in the city.

    Many parents thought that since the admission rate was so high, their children must be focused on their studies and wouldn’t get into trouble. It was also reassuring for them, as there were already many problems in schools.

    But there were always scenes where hormones prevailed, and teenagers would get into violent conflicts. Liu Chang’an arrived at the gym to meet Ann Wan, only to run into Chen Changxiu.

    Chen Changxiu was a smart person, with a strong personality. He had brought four people, the main players of the school basketball team. It was hard to imagine that Liu Chang’an could take them on alone.

    “Good morning.”

    Chen Changxiu glared at Liu Chang’an, his eyes flashing with hostility. Liu Chang’an felt that ignoring him wouldn’t be good, so he smiled and greeted him.

    “Someone told me that Ann Wan was coming to practice basketball today, so I knew you’d definitely show up.” Everything was within Chen Changxiu’s calculations.

    “Yeah, so I got up early and even washed my hair.”

    “I’m going to smash your head.”

    “You can’t.”

    Liu Chang’an often spoke sincerely with others, but there were always people who didn’t believe him. Ann Wan arrived at the gym a bit later, and saw Liu Chang’an standing at the gym entrance, with Chen Changxiu and the four basketball players behind him.

    “Ann Wan! Ann Wan! Oh so lovely!”

    “Ann Wan! Ann Wan! A flower in bloom!”

    “Ann Wan! Ann Wan! The most beautiful in school!”

    Chen Changxiu and the others started chanting, and Ann Wan felt her face burning with embarrassment. It was undoubtedly Liu Chang’an’s doing, so she walked over to him and asked, “What are you doing?”

    “They were conquered by your beauty.” Liu Chang’an pointed to Chen Changxiu, saying they did it voluntarily.

    “Voluntarily?” Ann Wan looked at Chen Changxiu’s bruised face and punched Liu Chang’an on the chest, “You’re treating me like an idiot! Make them stop!”

    “Thank you all. If you’re free, come again tomorrow.” Liu Chang’an thanked Chen Changxiu and the others sincerely, but it seemed like it had no effect.

    Chen Changxiu turned around and left, his face lost. In front of Ann Wan, he had lost all dignity.

    After the five of them left, Ann Wan glared at Liu Chang’an, who was smiling. Ann Wan’s mouth twitched, and she raised her small fist to punch Liu Chang’an’s chest, “You’re so annoying! Always causing trouble!”

    Liu Chang’an just laughed.

    “It’s good that you’ve already graduated. If you were still in high school, who knows how much trouble you’d cause in three years?” Ann Wan said, unsure whether to be relieved or grateful.

    “If I could go back to high school, how would I do it?”

    Ann Wan glanced at Liu Chang’an, who had asked the same question yesterday. She chuckled and said, “I’d try to set you up with Bai Li.”

    “I’d try to set you up with Chen Changxiu!”

    “You can’t do that!”

    “Why can’t I?”

    “I…I was just joking!”

    “I’m just joking too!”

    “You can’t just joke about this. You’re making me angry.” Ann Wan scolded Liu Chang’an, “Don’t you understand?”

    “You’re not being reasonable…”

    “I’m not being reasonable…”

    “Fine.”

    In the gym, Liu Chang’an finally didn’t insist on being reasonable. Ann Wan tilted her head, feeling triumphant and content, with a smile as lovely as a flower.

    Many times, it was like this – insisting on being reasonable only because the other person didn’t have the right to be unreasonable.

    As they entered the gym, Ann Wan went to the locker room to change clothes. The other two basketball team members, Zhao Chenchen and Ma Yilin, had also arrived. They had less training time than Ann Wan, but they still wanted to increase their training intensity to get a perfect score in the end.

    “Hi,” “Hi,” the two girls greeted Liu Chang’an, who went to watch Ann Wan train. The basketball team members all recognized him, and they went to the locker room to change clothes. After a while, they would come out and train with Ann Wan. Although the other two were not as beautiful as Ann Wan, they were still tall and leggy, with normal physiques, unlike professional athletes who were more muscular.

    As Liu Chang’an turned around, Ann Wan tiptoed behind him. She had seen the message last night, but how could she possibly stand in front of him and test her height? Was she supposed to abandon her dignity as a girl?

    Liu Chang’an turned back, and Ann Wan was caught tiptoeing. She quickly did a few jumping jacks to cover it up, looking around with a flushed face.

    “You’re still wearing a watch?” Liu Chang’an reminded Ann Wan.

    “Oh…” Ann Wan hesitated, finally noticing that Liu Chang’an had seen her. She took off her watch and touched her arm, saying, “The watch is black, making my hand look really white.”

    “You’re all white,” Liu Chang’an said.

    Ann Wan blushed, hitting Liu Chang’an on the arm. She was indeed all white, but was it okay for a guy to say that? He was such a pervert…and idiot. Hadn’t he realized her obvious hint just now?

    Wasn’t it obvious that she was trying to imply something?
