Chapter 15 – NEW YEAR’S EVE

Two week later, Qin Xiangnan was finally discharged.

It’s finally time to go back to school.

When she entered the classroom, she heard a shocking news from Li Susu.

Xu Chang and Zhao Cancan are dating.

She couldn’t believe it.

Xu Chang said that he didn’t like Zhao Cancan. Why…

Xu Chang lied. He, who has always been proud would not admit who he likes. Because of this, he lied to her and her brother. It turned out that Xu Chang, like other boys, likes a princess-like girl. He just pretended to be noble-minded, not to mention the beauty’s willingness to be with him. Oh, Xu Chang is just an ordinary person.

When Qin Xiangnan heard this news, she was very angry. This anger came out of nowhere. She wanted to ask him, why did he lie to her?

She secretly looked at Xu Chang and saw that he was still reading a book so seriously as usual. Her anger was more intense, she really wanted to hit him to feel better.

That weekend, Xu Chang came to her house and threw her a copy of his review material. She finally found the chance to vent. She was sad, so she also wanted him to be the same as her. This inexplicable idea came to her mind, and she really put it into action.

“I don’t need it! Take it back!”

“Are you sure you don’t? all the mathematical, physics, and chemical topics are here.” Xu Chang’s hazy expression was a little scary. He looked at her in disbelief.

“I don’t need it! Xu Chang, don’t think that just because you are great, you can do anything you like. Last time, you gave me so much homework that made me tired and sick. Do you also want to torture me now?”

“I was wrong last time. You can do this slowly, don’t worry.”

Xu Chang’s attitude was still very good. But when Qin Xiangnan thought that he lied, that he did not admit that he liked Zhao Cancan, her heart hurt again. She wanted to make trouble for no reason.

“Whatever, I don’t need it. Xu Chang, don’t think that you are so great. Without you, I can also get to college. So you don’t need to give me these broken materials in the future, I don’t need it!” She pursed her lips.

“Okay, good.” He put away the review material, packed it in his bag, turned around, and left.

Qin Xiangnan looked at his back. She didn’t know why she was so angry at him today. It’s just that if the anger in her heart doesn’t come out, she will feel uncomfortable.

Qin Xiangbei, who didn’t say anything, looked astonished. Why did the two of them argue?

After a few more days, Qin Xiangnan, who was shocked by Li Susu again.

Li Susu and Su Mingxuan are dating!

This series of news left Qin Xiangnan speechless. Whatever the situation, one by one, her classmates are falling in love. Li Susu and Su Mingxuan, these two archenemies, actually crossed paths and liked each other?

Qin Xiangnan could only congratulate them and remind her.

“Li Susu, let me remind you that the college entrance exam will be in half a year’s time, and you should make sure that your relationship will not affect it. Otherwise, the two of you will have no future. Do you understand?”

“I know. The two of us are encouraging and learning from each other. We will definitely inspire each other. But when will you date Shen Zhiyang?”

“I’m not like you.” Qin Xiangna looked at her sideways.

New Year is coming soon. After more than half a year, they will really be on the battlefield. She didn’t want to be the same as them!

After Xu Chang and Zhou Cancan’s relationship rumor, she has never seen the two of them together except that time…

Zhao Cancan asked Xu Chang for his review material in front of the class again.

Her voice was gentle, with a smile on her face.

“Xu Chang, last time I asked to borrow your review material. Can you lend it to me this time?”

Still the same as last time, the eyes of the whole class were on them, Qin Xiangnan was no exception. This time, she looked so blatantly at them, and wanted to see how the two of them interacts.

Xu Chang hesitated and didn’t answer.

Zhao Cancan’s face was slightly awkward, as she tried to say something. She saw Xu Chang took out a review material and handed it to her. Zhao Cancan immediately burst into a big smile, took it with both hands, and hugged it like a treasure.

Qin Xiangnan clearly saw that this material was the one Xu Chang wanted to give her that day in which she rejected it. She widened her eyes and stared at Xu Chang.

He treated her like that?

It was true that she rejected it, but did he have to give it to Zhao Cancan? It turned out that the two of them are really…

Qin Xiangnan suddenly felt like something was biting her heart, it hurts.

“So, Xu Chang, are you free this weekend? I want to learn how to play the guitar, can you teach me?” Zhao Cancan looked at Xu Chang.

This weekend? But Xu Chang is going to tutor her…

“I’m free.” This time he agreed to her without hesitation. He looked at Zhao Cancan, but his eyes flew past her, looking at something in the distance.

“Really? Then I’ll make some time again.” Zhao Cancan ran away happily.

Qin Xiangan did not know how she spent the rest of that day feeling uncomfortable. It was as if there were countless ants biting at her heart. She tried to keep herself calm and study with ease, but she couldn’t stay calm that day.

This feeling continued until the end of the day.

After school, she was listlessly ready to go home.

When she walked out of the school gate, she saw Shen Zhiyang standing not far away.

He was smiling at her.

She thought that he looked nice, quietly standing there.

Then, without knowing why, she ran to him.

“You asked me to wait for you for so long again.” He said with a smile.

“Shen Zhiyang, didn’t you ask me about it before?” She asked him.

“What?” He went blank.

“To be your girlfriend.” She said.

“…” He was stunned, just looking at her without saying anything.

“If it doesn’t count, then forget it.” SHe wanted to turn away.

“He grabbed her. “It still counts.”

…

That weekend, Qin Xiangan and Shen Zhiyang went for a date for the whole day.

Of course, this matter was hidden from her parents, but Qin Xiangbei saw them that morning. She told Qin Xiangbei that Xu Chang will not come today.

She can imagine Xu Chang must be somewhere with Zhao Cancan. Just him and her, playing the guitar, it’s inevitable to have physical contact.

The day before New Year, Li Susu proposed that several friends should go to the riverside to watch the fireworks for the New Year. Qin Xiangnan was also asked to bring Shen Zhiyang with her. Qin Xiangnan thought that it was a rare opportunity. Next year, everyone will go their separate ways. Good friends should get together while they still have the time.

In the evening, she and Shen Zhiyang met with her classmates at the appointed place. Li Susu brought Su Mingxuan, and several were their mutual friends. What Qin Xiangnan did not expect was that Su Mingxuan also brought Xu Chang.

Seeing Shen Zhiyang, Su Mingxuan teased Qin Xiangnan. “Oh, I didn’t expect Qin Xiangnan’s boyfriend would be so handsome. Qin Xiangan, you really have good ability.”

Li Susu obstructed him and said, “Of course me and Qin Xiangnan are not bad. That’s enough.”

After listening, Shen Zhiyang laughed. “Our Xiao Nan is so good but hard to chase.”

When Qin Xiangnan heard him call her like that, she got goosebumps.

She glanced at Xu Chang who was silent and had no expression on his face.

Today, he didn’t bring Zhao Cancan. Maybe the princess doesn’t like attending such occasions.

An hour before the New Year’s ell rang, the group of boys and girls gathered at the waterfront. They looked at the high-rise buildings on the other side. In the night, the neon lights shone and glowed, highlighting the city’s splendor.

Suddenly, someone asked, “Hey, what major are you guys going to apply?”

Su Mingxuan answered first: “Oh, whatever, as long as I get to college.”

Li Susu threw a punch at him, lightly tapping on his arms and said, “You’re really not wise. Can you be a little bit ideal? I will be a big boss of a company in the future, making lots of money!”

Everyone sneered, “How can a boss be a profession, Li Susu? You’re only thinking of money.”

Li Susu snorted and asked Qin Xiangnan: “Qin Xiangan, what major are you going to take? You’ve never told me.”

Shen Zhiyang was also curious when he heard this. “Xiao Nan, what do you want to do in the future?”

Qin Xiangnan laughed, her eyes filled with light, she said, “I want to take on journalism and be a journalist in the future. I once saw an article and the reporter’s words touched me. She said that she has experience on being a reporter and that her voice has the power to touch people. This sentence really impacted me.”

Li Susu looked surprised, “Qin Xiangnan, that’s so rare. You ambition is so great, ah.”

Shen Zhiyang looked at her, squeezed her face, and laughed: “Xiao Nan, you have to tell me which university you’re going to in the future. I want to be on the same university as you.”

Qin Xiangnan was surprised. Wasn’t he going to study abroad? She never asked this question, and Shen Zhiyang never mentioned it to her either.

Later, another girl shamefully asked which university and what major is Xu Chang going to take.

The focus of everyone fell on Xu Chang.

Under the lights, his eyes shone like the stars in the sky.

He said, “I want to be a doctor in the future.”

“Wow, Xu Chang will definitely be a good doctor.” The girl said in admiration.

The boys and girls were talking about their ideals, ambitions, and were laughing. Everyone is looking forward for their future…

Maybe they will not see each other again after so many years, maybe someone will not fulfill their original dream, or someone may face many challenges in the future. Only at this moment, they on the riverside in the center of S City, have a dream in their hearts, the cleanest and purest dreams. This moment, they will never forget.

The midnight bell is going to ring soon, the ten-second countdown begins, and a new year is coming.

Qin Xiangnan began to get nervous as everyone shouted:

“Ten!”

“Nine!”

“Eight!”

“Seven!”

“Six!”

“Five!”

“Four!”

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

Bang!

The fireworks suddenly bloomed, shining the entire sky.

Qin Xiangnan suddenly felt that Shen Zhiyang was holding her tightly and pulling her towards him.

A cold, soft thing pressed against her lips…

After separating, she saw Shen Zhiyang smiling, a glint in his eyes, reflecting the light of the fireworks, the stars, and her.

He leaned closer to her ear and said, “We will always be together.”

A loud deafening noise drowned his voice…

A colorful light illuminated the night sky and cut through the boundless horizon…
