On the day of enrollment to school, Xiang Yu walked around the familiar campus in circles, feeling a sense of dizziness and a desire to cry. Finally, she walked through the hall and up the circular staircase, once again heading towards her destiny.
At the back door of the classroom, she immediately saw that figure, even in the crowd, she could spot him first. Xiang Yu stood outside the door, staring blankly at that figure for a long time. Lu Heng was wearing a white T-shirt, making his figure exceptionally clean. Xiang Yu couldn't remember what Lu Heng looked like the first time they met in her past life, but in this life, she wanted to engrave his image in her heart. Xiang Yu slowly walked up to Lu Heng, and the young boy turned his head to look at her, his features so handsome, just as she had imagined countless times. "Hello, desk mate, my name is Xiang Yu," Xiang Yu said with a smile, and the boy smiled even brighter, "I'm Lu Heng." He reached out his hand to her, and Xiang Yu placed her hand in his, his hand dry and warm, just as she remembered.
Lu Heng felt that Xiang Yu was a particularly strange girl. She was quite pretty, and the boys would talk about her when they were together, but she was really weird. She hardly spoke to anyone else, always seeming distant, but she would chatter away to him like a magpie, every day. The her in front of him and the her in front of others were completely different people. Once during lunch break, everyone was sleeping on their desks, and when he turned his head and opened his eyes, he saw Xiang Yu looking at him, the expression in her eyes was very, gentle? He didn't know why, but that was the word that came to mind, gentle. Lu Heng felt that Xiang Yu was too strange, her favoritism towards him was too obvious, but why, they had only just met not long ago.
What made Lu Heng even more baffled was that Xiang Yu started to look after him. The most basic operation was that every time he went to soccer practice with the school team, Xiang Yu would hand him a water bottle filled with water, not letting him drink the unfiltered tap water. Sometimes when he didn't have breakfast, Xiang Yu could tell and would take out a small bread from her bag for him. Sometimes it was reminding him to bring an umbrella when it was raining, sometimes after P.E. class, she would tell him to put his clothes on and not catch a cold. Many people had teased them about their relationship in front of him, but Xiang Yu seemed completely indifferent, still the same, and Lu Heng couldn't do anything about it. Gradually, they started going to school and going home together, doing chores together. Xiang Yu was assigned to make bulletin boards because she learned how to draw, and she would ask Lu Heng to stay and wait for her. When Lu Heng had a school team match, Xiang Yu would often go to cheer for him. Xiang Yu had very good grades, while Lu Heng was a sports student, with much poorer academic performance. Xiang Yu proposed to give him extra homework classes. Her exact words were, "If you don't improve your grades, how are we going to go to high school and university together?" When Xiang Yu spoke, her eyes sparkled as she looked at Lu Heng, pouting a little angrily, and how could Lu Heng dare not agree? So, Xiang Yu would give Lu Heng extra homework classes three or four times a week, and they would go to the bookstore together to buy exercise books to consolidate what they had learned. Lu Heng was led by Xiang Yu all the way, somewhat clueless.
Almost every month, Xiang Yu would meet with Zhou Si Ping and Xiao Zhanyuan to talk about their respective situations. Xiao Zhanyuan and Zhou Si Ping were both admitted to very good high schools, and their studies were going very smoothly. They said they could go to the same high school together in the future, so they could be together again, but Xiang Yu said she planned to take the high school entrance exam of Dongcheng High School, not planned to change.
