Chapter 260 - Chapter 260: Goodbye, Shen Chi

Chapter 260: Goodbye, Shen Chi

Translator: 549690339

The weather was quite pleasant that day. Xu Chaomu worked on her test paper in the classroom, and from time to time, squinted out the window at the sun.

The morning sun was just rising, and a light mist hung in the air.

Xu Chaomu squinted her eyes, quietly watching the campus.

How many more glances could she take…

“There are fifteen minutes left before the exam ends, everyone please hurry up.” While Xu Chaomu was lost in thought, the invigilating teacher reminded everyone.

Xu Chaomu quickly pulled her thoughts back and buried her head in the test paper.

The first subject was math, followed by Chinese.

This time’s math test, supposedly set by a teacher named Ge Jun, who was dubbed the “king of sadistic teachers,” was always aimed at failing the students.

However, with Lou Yanli’s help, Xu Chaomu had made rapid progress and was able to handle it even though it was Ge Jun’s test paper.

The entire mid-term exam lasted three days. After the three days, there was a four-day break.

Following the last history exam, Xu Chaomu packed up her backpack slowly.

“Chaomu! My parents are taking me to T City for a trip during the break. Do you want to go with us?” Yu Weiwei was also packing up her bag.

Xu Chaomu shook her head: “No thanks, I’ve got a date with my boyfriend.”

“Oh…” Yu Weiwei deliberately drew out her intonation, winking mischievously, “Then have a good date, I’m off, see you in four days.”

“Okay… see you in four days, have fun. Don’t forget to bring me a souvenir!” Xu Chaomu waved to her.

“Of course, I can’t forget you no matter what.”

Soon, Yu Weiwei finished packing, waved to Xu Chaomu, and left the classroom.

Xu Chaomu was packing slowly; she wanted to take her time because this was going to be her last day in the classroom.

Farewell, to everything.

She knew Shen Chi had great influence in C City, and as long as she stayed there, she would definitely be caught by him.

Therefore, she wanted to leave C City and go abroad.

She had said she would be the bridesmaid at his engagement party, but she broke her word. She truly feared the day would come when she would see him hand-in-hand, lovingly with Bai Man, and she wouldn’t be able to stop crying.

Now, with Bai Man pregnant again, the three of them were a happy family; how could she possibly keep her composure?

Crying at the engagement party was inauspicious.

She wanted him to be very happy, so she mustn’t cry.

If she left alone, she could make everyone happy.

She continued to pack her books at a leisurely pace, going through everything in her desk once more.

She found some magazines in the desk and a few comics labeled Not suitable for children.

Xu Chaomu couldn’t help but laugh, reminiscing about the days when she and Yu Weiwei secretly read magazines during class.

Back then, the moment class started, they’d pile their books high in front of them so they wouldn’t be caught looking down at the magazines.

They often heatedly discussed them; for instance Yu Weiwei would often ask, “Look at this male model, isn’t his body great? Don’t you want to touch?”

She would respond without any shame: “Not just touch, I also want to sleep with him…”

And then she’d cover her face first.

Yu Weiwei would also lack shame: “No way, no way, if anyone’s going to sleep with him, it should be me first.”

By the time their discussion heated up, the teacher would typically have already come with a book in hand to where they were sitting.

“Xu Chaomu! Yu Weiwei! Stand up, both of you!”

“Oh…” The two would slowly stand up, heads hanging low.

But at that point, Xu Chaomu would look pitifully and say, “Teacher, standing up will block the view of the students behind us, so maybe we should just stand outside…”

“Right, right, for the sake of the students behind us, we should make some sacrifices…” Yu Weiwei chimed in.

“Fine! One of you go stand in the playground, the other by the main gate! I don’t want to see your faces!” The teacher would explode.

The two of them, in perfect duet, always managed to shake the teacher with rage.

Then they’d exchange a look, gleefully dash out of the classroom, and continue their discussion about sleeping with male models.

At the thought of these moments, Xu Chaomu’s hands paused.

The days she spent in class with Yu Weiwei were some of the happiest times of her life.

She wondered whether Weiwei would miss her, or if she would cry…

At that moment, Xu Chaomu cried first, tears plopping down on the desk.

It started with quiet sobbing and then she buried her face on the desk crying inconsolably.

Thankfully the classroom was empty, so she could cry out loud without feeling embarrassed.

As darkness fell, Xu Chaomu, not wanting to leave, sat in her chair for a long time.

After crying for a while, she raised her head to look at the blackboard, her gaze dull.

She remembered when the teacher called her to the board to solve a problem, when she wiped the blackboard as part of the cleaning duty, and when she had nothing to do on weekends, she’d scribble carelessly on the board…

Back then, her favorite thing was to write Shen Chi’s name with chalk on the blackboard.

She felt that he was the most beautiful encounter of her life.

Farewell, Shen Chi.

May you always be happy…

When the moon rose, Xu Chaomu knew that even the most reluctant feasts must come to an end.

She neatly stacked the textbooks on the desk, took nothing with her, and only picked a few small items into her backpack.

Small keepsakes given by Yu Weiwei, and the doll given by Lou Yanli, she took them all…

Finally, she stood up, walked to the classroom door, and quietly looked at her desk.

The countless late nights of companionship, this farewell, meant she would never see them again.

She noticed her desk was the neatest, and for the first time after so many years of schooling, she felt like a good student.

She didn’t know whether her books would be thrown away after she left.

Standing at the door, the tears just silently streamed down.

On those books, there were many drawings by her hand.

For a while she was particularly addicted to reading BL comics, drawing on her textbooks during class.

Lost in her thoughts, she would draw a submissive character and write Shen Chi’s name, and then, directing her own little story, she imagined how Shen Chi would be trained by someone even more formidable.

At that time, she was so delighted, giggling to herself, “That’s what you get for being so smug, for being so arrogant, you bastard, I’m going to make you pick up the soap!”

Hmph, pick up the soap.

At those recollections, Xu Chaomu wiped her tears.

Finally, she turned off the classroom lights, one by one, until darkness surrounded her.

With a “bang”, the door closed.

She stood at the doorway, tears falling down like relentless rain.

She wasn’t one to cry, but lately, she had lost count of the number of times she had cried.

The pitch-black corridor was deathly quiet, every classroom plunged into darkness.

Xu Chaomu gripped her backpack straps tightly, looking back at her classroom as she stepped back further and further…

Class 2 of the second year.

Farewell…

As she watched the classroom slowly vanish from her sight, once she reached the stairs, she turned her head, refusing to look back at all she was leaving behind.
