After the Gaokao, the puppy love between Wu Hao and Xu Wennuan soon became a long-distance relationship.

Whether for a boy or girl, love was always an important part of young life.

Therefore, for Xu Wennuan, the separation was an ordeal for their love.

Both of them were in a bad mood, and they had a big quarrel after getting drunk. Xu Wennuan cried and ran away, with Qin Zhi’ai following her.

When they had just walked out of the karaoke place and were about to hail a taxi, Wu Hao came out and pulled Xu Wennuan back.

Like in a TV show, Xu Wennuan struggled for a while, but Wu Hao kissed Xu Wennuan hard on the lips, even when they still stood right by everyone else, then Xu Wennuan held his neck with her arms. The boy and girl were kissing each other passionately, right in the street.

That was the first time for Qin Zhi’ai to see people kissing in real life. At first, she was shocked, then she removed her eyes and lowered her head when she realized what was happening in front of her.

She turned back, but saw Gu Yusheng.

He had also followed everyone out and was leaning against a pole near her. He was staring at the ones kissing with a cigarette in his mouth, then commented to Qin Zhi’ai, “Bad kisser.”

What kind of people would stare at the others kissing and give comments? Qin Zhi’ai blushed.

Gu Yusheng was still looking at them, then turned back to Qin Zhi’ai. He looked into her eyes, smiling over a smoke ring, and continued, “What? You don’t believe? Do you want to…?”

Qin Zhi’ai knew the words after that would be ‘kiss me,’ but he suddenly stopped with a confusing smile on his face. He stared at her for a while, stubbed out the cigarette, and changed topics. “Let me take you home.”

That was the first time Qin Zhi’ai sat on Gu Yusheng’s bicycle. Even with her on the backseat, he still rode fast, like a blast of wind.

When they were having fun in the karaoke room, it had rained outside, so the air at the time was fresh and wet.

Sitting behind him, Qin Zhi’ai felt like she was in a dream.

When Gu Yusheng stopped, she realized that they had already arrived at the apartment building she lived in.

She was about to say thanks, but he rode away as soon as she got off.

Qin Zhi’ai realized that she hadn’t told him the address, but how did he know?

An inexplicable excitement overwhelmed her. Gu Yusheng, did he have feelings for her?

That night, with courage that came from nowhere, she suddenly shouted to him, “Gu Yusheng!”

Gu Yusheng stopped and turned around to look at her.

Qin Zhi’ai grasped her clothes tightly, her eyes shifting around, and stammered, “Are… are you free tomorrow? I… I… I want… to ask you to go see a movie with me.”

“Water… Water…” Gu Yusheng’s murmuring dragged Qin Zhi’ai back from her memories.
