Lin Sitian sat down beside Zhou Sheng. The dinner table scene grew awkward—some perceptive ones stayed silent, while clueless boys were about to make noise. Yang Xuelin suddenly stood, removing the empty wine bottle from the center. "This is boring. Let's call the waiter for more wine, Wang Yue." Wang Yue, about to tease Lin Sitian, frowned. "Why don't you go?" Yang Xuelin glared at him. "Got it, got it. I'll go, Miss." Then everyone laughed as if nothing happened. The boys at the other table started…-

"Hold on tight!" The shore safety officer warned. The turbulent waters ahead converged, leaving them little time to brace. The raft plunged down with the roaring white waves. With Lin Sitian's cry of surprise, the raft nearly capsized as it hit the water. They barely steadied the raft, and then the rapid currents made it hard to think. Their bodies jolted with the raft, adrenaline surging. When the rapids finally calmed, the raft was half - full of water, and both were soaked. As the raft drifted into a…

"So, is Meng Qiaoyu pursuing Lin Sitian?" At the dinner table, Li Hailiang, always the last to catch on, asked this question. After rafting, the group took a bus to a hotel atop Danqing Mountain to check in, then headed to a nearby farm - stay for a meal. Dusk fell, the sky not yet fully dark. On the other side of the mountain, fiery clouds spread, vast clouds like gold leaf tumbling overhead, then burning into a crimson red before melting into the gray of the approaching night. The rising smoke of cooking…

"Why do you dislike Meng Qiaoyu so much?" Lin Sitian suddenly leaned closer to Zhou Sheng as they waited in line to board the rafts. Her question was deliberate, laced with a hint of teasing. Zhou Sheng frowned slightly, thinking for a moment before answering, "I don't." He said it with utter seriousness and a perfectly calm expression, making Lin Sitian start to doubt if she'd truly misinterpreted his earlier behavior. "Really?" she pressed. This question prompted Zhou Sheng to reflect. Had he really…

Zhou Sheng leaned against the wall at the entrance of the stairwell, one hand shoved in his pants pocket, the other holding his phone as he looked down at the screen. In the chat window, the person on the other end replied: Coming down right now. He sighed and lifted his head. It was 8 AM, and the old neighborhood was already bustling. Elderly residens out for exercise and young mothers pushing strollers for morning sun passed by him frequently. The enticing aroma of steamed buns wafted from the back…

"You, move." Lin Sitian was only half-listening to Cui Qian's celebrity gossip when a sudden, sharp flick landed on her head. "Ow—!" Lin Sitian clutched her skull. "What was that for, Yang Xuelin?!" "Switch seats, switch seats. You've had enough time catching up with Cui Qian. My turn now." "Huh?" "Huh what 'huh'? Isn't he your guest? You bring him and then abandon him, dumping me in the Arctic while you have fun in Cancun? Have you no shame, Lin Sitian?" Yang Xuelin grumbled. The bus had been…

Meng Qiaoyu was baffled. He and Lin Sitian sat side-by-side at her desk doing homework. On a phone holder in front of them, a video call was open, displaying the pale face of another boy silently working on problems. He leaned close to Lin Sitian's ear and whispered, "Do we have to set up an altar just to do homework? Ow—!" Lin Sitian stomped hard on his foot. The boy on the screen, Zhou Sheng, looked up. He cleared his throat before speaking, suppressing a cough that threatened to erupt. Between…

This feeling… it was as bizarre as flipping open your familiar Five Years of College Entrance Exams, Three Years of Mock Tests only to find a page asking "What is love?" It completely emptied Lin Sitian's mind, leaving her frozen for half a minute. Rainy days filled the air with the scent of damp grass and mud, mingling with the detergent fragrance clinging to Zhou Sheng. It made Lin Sitian feel unusually alert. They stood under the eaves of the school building's first floor. Outside, the sky had…

The string of overcast days meant darkness fell especially early. The two of them worked in silence for a while. Zhou Sheng finished his own homework for the day. Normally, he'd immediately open his supplementary workbook and embark on the next "expedition." But not this time. To say the illness hadn't affected him was impossible. His head had felt heavy all day. That morning before leaving, he'd actually been teetering on the edge of a low-grade fever. His mother had suggested he stay home to…

A pair of phoenix eyes glinted coldly through his glasses. Zhou Sheng pressed his lips together. "Lin Sitian, you're really pushing your luck." "I'm way more shameless than you, and you caught me," she retorted, pretending she was the one at a disadvantage. "Are we doing this tutoring session or not?" Zhou Sheng stopped looking at her, bending his head to pack his things. Seeing she'd gone too far, Lin Sitian quickly pressed her hand over his. "Alright, alright, I'll stop. Sorry." He didn't turn his…
