"Who did you say?" Yun Jing abruptly stood up.
"The girl who lent us money.. Hey Boss, where are you going??"
Fatty saw Yun Jing suddenly dashing outside and was puzzled.
A brown curly-haired girl sitting behind him, raised her head.
She was wearing a big round spectacles and had freckles on her fair face. Overall, her face was extremely adorable.
She poked him, "Fatty, what happened to Boss??" Fatty stiffened, "I-I don't know, Boss suddenly went out.."
He blushed and asked shyly, "Right, didn't you say you wanted to go to the concert this weekend?"
The girl's eyes lit up at the mention of the concert, "Yes!" Then, she pouted, "But I don't have enough money to go there.."
Fatty quickly said, "Don't worry! I'll take you there! Boss is also going there, so he'll also give us the tickets! You know that Boss is friends with Emster!"
Lin Mo smiled, her eyes turning into two crescents.
She pushed the round spectacles on her face upwards and exclaimed, "Thank you so much, Fatty!"
Fatty smiled back sheepishly. "N-No problem, Momo!"

On the other side, Yun Jing just got out of the class. He surveyed the crowd and saw a small head.
He then began making his way over there. His lips curled up as he was about to call out to her when he heard her talking.
"..Bro Shan, you'll really come with me this weekend, right??"
"Mm," A tall figure turned over and knocked on her head smilingly, "Is that the only thing in your tiny head?"
"Ow!"
The girl rubbed her forehead with a scrunched expression, then she smiled sweetly, "Yeah, you don't hang around with us often! It's very rare for you to agree!"
"Alright, Let's go to the class first."
"Mmh!"
"..."
Yun Jing silently swallowed his words back as he watched the two figures disappear among the crowds.
He slowly turned around and left. His eyes were dark. 'Lu Jeongshan?'
~~~
After school;
"You bet with him?!"
"Mmh.." Li Yuri bit the popsicle and pouted angrily, "I was manipulated by that guy!"
Mo Xuanji sighed, "I think it's better for you to give up! Just tell him that you don't want to bet anymore!"
Li Yuri pursed her lips tightly, "But.. I already agreed.."
Qi Feng, who was silently sucking her popsicle, spoke up.
"Actually, you can give it a shot.. What if Lu Jeongshan really agrees to go out with you?"
Li Yuri scratched her head, "That's near impossible!"
Mo Xuanji nodded, "Nothing has happened for years; It'd be better if you just give up. I'm growing tired on your behalf too."
Though she was certain that Lu Jeongshan liked Li Yuri, the two were really just not progressing at any point.
It was either Li Yuri constantly poking Lu Jeongshan or her chasing after him endlessly every time.
It looked cool in those web dramas, but ot was actually really hard in reality. Hard for both her to hold on and others to see.
Li Yuri groaned, "I want to give up; but I can't!!"
Every time she had the thought of giving up, Lu Jeongshan would suddenly appear and act so gentle..
So she had no choice but to relentlessly chase after him. She suddenly stopped and took a deep breath, "I've decided.."
Qi Feng and Mo Xuanji both stopped and turned to look at her. Li Yuri said determinedly, "I'll ask Bro Shan out.."
The two girls exchanged glances, each seeing joy in the other's eyes.
Li Yuri sulked again, "..Next time."
"..."
"I really can't confess.."
Li Yuri suddenly lost all her energy as she cried, "I really want to confess but then I remember that one time that I confessed to him!"
Flashback; In Middle School.
Little Yuri carefully folded a pink paper in her hand.
A boy next to her humphed arrogantly, "Yuri, what is that? A love letter for me, hm?"
Lil Yuri rolled her eyes and ignored him as she sneakily put the letter in the bag on the desk behind her.
Little Min widened his big eyes, "That's for Jeongshan?!" Lil Yuri quickly covered his mouth, her cheeks flushed red. "Shut it!"
Little Min obediently shut his mouth. He whispered in disbelief, "You like him??" Li Yuri hesitantly nodded, "Yes!"
"Why do you like that shorty?! He's always quiet and doesn't even talk to us! So arrogant!" Little Min stood akimbo.
"Please, he's taller than you! You're just jealous of him!"
"Why.. Why would I even be jealous of that guy, huh?!"
Li Yuri's focus wasn't clearly on him as she silently stared at the door with an eager expression on her small adorable face.
She soon grew tired, "Eh? Why isn't Bro Shan coming back??"
Tang Min blinked, "Oh, you don't know? Ren Zixi is confessing to him right now! She's pretty straightforward, unlike you! She has the guts to confess in front of him rather than using an old fashioned way.."
Li Yuri sighed, "Can you stop discouraging me?" She stood up, "I'm going to find Bro Shan; don't bother with me!"
She then darted off and walked outside. Tang Min was about to follow her when a thought came to his mind.
He slowly walked towards the bag and carefully unzipped it..
Upon coming out, Li Yuri saw two familiar figures in the school ground and quietly hid behind a tree.
"Bro Shan.. Here you go!"
The girl, Ren Zixi passed over the packet of well-decorated chocolates. "I made them myself! It's very delicious! Try it!"
Little Jeongshan, with his poker face, coldly said. "I don't want it."
"Just try it!"
"..."
Ren Zixi smiled nonchalantly before she retracted her hand, "Bro Shan, you must know, I've never been so tolerant before.."
"Me too."
"..."
Li Yuri held back her laughter. 'Oh my goodness, Bro Shan is so savage yet cute!'
Lu Jeongshan bypassed Ren Zixi but the latter held onto his arm, "Lu Jeong Shan!"
Her pride got hurt so she was furious.
"How long do you think you can put on with this act! Just because I like you doesn't give you the right to ignore me! I did so much for you yet you..!"
Lu Jeongshan coldly took back his hand from her grip, "I didn't ask you to do so."
Li Yuri rubbed her nose. She was feeling the urge to sneeze. She tried to suppress it as she contined to observe the two people.
"No! Bro Shan! Don't go! At least, give me an answer!" Ren Zixi shouted loudly as she chased after him.
Lu Jeongshan turned back, "Isn't it obvious?"
Ren Zixi was stumped for words, her confident eyes welled up with tears as she tugged at his sleeves, "No, Bro Shan, I-!"
"Achoo!!" A loud sneeze interrupted the scene.
Li Yuri rubbed her nose as she met the gazes of the two people.
She sheepishly spoke, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you guys.. I'll get going! You two, please continue!"
