Huo Lianqing took the ice cream from Gu Zhenhai's hand. Her face was slightly pink, like a peach blossom. Huo Lianqing felt Gu Zhenhai's dazed gaze and called out softly.
"Zhenhai, let's go home."
Only then did Gu Zhenhai react. He took the heavy backpack from Huo Lianqing's hands and walked in front of her. Huo Lianqing was wearing a light blue dress with white lace on the hem. Her jet-black hair was tied into a ponytail, and her originally slender neck seemed even more slender. Her pair of big, dark eyes were watery, and her red lips were like two pink petals.
As Huo Lianqing walked on the campus road, many boys turned to look at her. Huo Lianqing ignored them expressionlessly. Sometimes, a boy who hated her would come over and talk to her. At that moment, Gu Zhenhai would walk up from the back and act as Huo Lianqing's escort.
"Zhenhai, let's ignore them and leave!" Huo Lianqing was always afraid that Gu Zhenhai would fight with her alone, so she always dragged Gu Zhenhai along with her and left quickly.
"Mom!" "I'm back. What's for dinner tonight?" Huo Lianqing skipped into the house.
"Yo, our beautiful little princess is back. Tonight, dad will show you his hand. How about a red-braised pork chop?" Huo Lianqing's father took the school bag from his daughter and said to Huo Lianqing with a smile.
Huo Lianqing loved to eat the ribs in Jingan's Dining Hall the most. When she heard about the ribs, she jumped with joy.
"I'll call Zhenhai over to eat together with you."
The next morning outside Huo Lianqing's house
"Lianqing, are you ready?" It was Gu Zhenhai's voice. He would ask Huo Lianqing to go to school together with him every morning. Huo Lianqing answered with a "yes" before running out with her backpack.
"Lianqing, if any male students harass you in the future, just tell me and I'll help you teach them a lesson." Gu Zhenhai thought back to the boys from yesterday. He felt angry when they tried to take liberties with Huo Lianqing.
"Zhenhai, don't do this. We'll pretend we've never met this kind of person. We should be studying properly now, and the exam is soon going to start. I don't want you to be distracted by my matters. " Huo Lianqing said calmly.
Outside Huo Lianqing's Class
"Is that Student Huo Lianqing?"
Huo Lianqing was in the middle of a conversation with a few of her classmates when she suddenly heard someone calling her name from outside the door. She raised her head and took a look. It was an extremely old girl. Huo Lianqing stood up and walked out of the door with a bit of suspicion.
"Hello, I'm Huo Lianqing. Senior, what's the matter? " Huo Lianqing asked politely.
The senior girl sized Huo Lianqing up from head to toe with a bit of disdain in her eyes.
"You are Huo Lianqing? I thought it was so beautiful, but it's nothing more than that. " Her tone was full of ridicule and ridicule, but Huo Lianqing didn't seem to care. She just stood there calmly.
"Can I help you?" Huo Lianqing asked again.
"Here, senior Pan Fan asked me to hand it over to you!" With that, the girl stuffed a small, delicate envelope into Huo Lianqing's hand and left. Huo Lianqing frowned as she looked at the letter in her hand. She was very familiar with this' Pan Fan 'guy. He was their senior, and he was quite handsome and had a good family background.
"Lianqing, what is it? Let me see! " When Huo Lianqing was still stunned, the letter in her hand had already been snatched away by someone. She hastily pulled the girl, but the letter had already passed from her hand to the other girl's.
Just like that, the letter was passed around in their hands, and finally, someone read it out loud. It became an open secret.
"Sister Huo Lianqing, it's primary school!" This title is pretty sweet! " The girl who had spoken shouted loudly, and the group of girls nearby burst into laughter.
"I've always had a good impression of you. Every time I see your watery eyes, I can't help but want to look at you a few more times. Every time I see your …" Girls of their age loved to joke and prank the most. They didn't have any malicious intentions when they did that, but they never would have thought that it would bring a lifetime of harm to Huo Lian.
"Yo!" This is bad! So it's a love letter! It was read by me, Lianqing is sorry! "
Amidst the laughter of the students, Huo Lianqing quickly took the letter and returned to her seat silently. The girl who was reading the love letter saw that Huo Lianqing was a little unhappy, so she stopped and returned to her seat. This matter passed just like that. However, the news of Pan Fan writing a love letter to Huo Lianqing had spread like wildfire throughout the school.
Huo Lianqing didn't take this to heart either. She only saw Gu Zhenhai after school and felt that something was wrong with his mood. Although she still bought some ice cream for him and helped him carry his backpack, there was no trace of a smile on her face. Huo Lianqing knew that Gu Zhenhai was doing it because of that love letter.
The small playground behind the next day
"What did you say?" Did Senior Pan Fan really send a love letter to a primary school sister? "Who is that person?" Dressed in a tight denim outfit, Gao Xiaowen stood in the middle of a group of students and asked.
"It's the girl called the school belle, Huo Lianqing." Don't you know? The whole school was talking about it! You are still in the dark! " said one of the girls.
"What did you say?" Are you laughing at me? "Let me tell you, if this is true, I will never let that Huo Lianqing off!" With that, Gao Xiaowen turned around and left. She was one of the many problematic students in this school. Her parents were businessmen, and because they had to take care of the business, they neglected to discipline her, which was why she became like this.
Gao Xiaowen angrily walked all the way to the entrance of Pan Fan's class. Pan Fan was giving lessons to his classmates, and Gao Xiaowen walked in front of Pan Fan with a face full of anger.
"Senior, can you come out for a bit?"
Pan Fan froze for a moment. This Gao Xiaowen was very 'famous' in school, and Pan Fan had heard that she had a crush on him. Seeing that she came to him today, he decided to explain things to her.
Thus, he put down the pen and followed Gao Xiaowen out.
"Why are you looking for me?" Pan Fan asked expressionlessly.
This made Gao Xiaowen, who had a crush on him, very sad.
"Senior, do you like that junior Huo Lianqing? I heard you wrote a letter to her? " Gao Xiaowen asked angrily.
"Yes, I do like Huo Lianqing. I wrote her a letter. But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you. Student, is there anything else? " Pan Fan said impatiently.
"You! Senior, don't you know that I like you? How am I not as good as that Huo Lianqing? You actually treated me like this? You must be very regretful! " After saying this, Gao Xiaowen dashed away from the crowd.
In the abandoned warehouse behind the school
"That Pan Fan is too much, he actually dares to ignore the love our Xiao Wen has for him!" "It's okay, Xiao Wen, let me comfort the heart in your hands." This abandoned warehouse was where the group of 'unscrupulous' students gathered. Normally, they would skip lessons and gather in groups here, doing whatever it took.
As the boy spoke, he placed a hand on Gao Xiaowen's shoulder, who glared at him and stomped on him.
"Fuck you!" Who cares about you! Get lost! All of you, scram! I'm really annoyed right now! " Gao Xiaowen began to shout hysterically.
"Forget it, there's nothing to be angry about. I don't like you, but are you going to force me to do that? A hard to twist melon is not sweet!" Another boy beside Gao Xiaowen said.
"Go to hell!" Gao Xiaowen was thoroughly infuriated, and her eyes revealed a murderous light.
"Why don't we call Huo Lianqing over to teach him a lesson? We can do that as well … "I heard that the girl is very pretty …"
"Who are you calling beautiful!" Gao Xiaowen rolled her eyes at him unhappily.
"Big brother, aren't I trying to help you vent your anger? Whether you like it or not is up to you! "
