FSC [QT] Chapter 54.2

“Of course!”

How could Jiang Baobei forget her ‘birthday’? But she didn’t expect that Qiu Wu really invited her.

She knew how inferior she was in her heart and how difficult it was to get close to others. In Jiang Baobei’s opinion, her efforts in more than a month since the start of the school year might not be enough to win the true favor of ’herself’.

But now that Qiu Wu took the initiative to invite her to her birthday party, did it mean that her efforts were effective and Qiu Wu had gradually let go of her wariness toward her?

“Jiang Baobei, you are the first good friend I have ever made. Can you please be my best friend for life?”

Ah Wu took the initiative to hold Jiang Baobei’s hand and said very seriously.

“Because I’m starting to like you. I really, really like you.”

Before inheriting the memory of ‘Qiu Wu’’s future, Ah Wu only regarded Jiang Baobei as Jiang Baobei and was moved by her enthusiasm and careful care.

After Ah Wu read the life of ‘Qiu Wu’ and realized Jiang Baobei’s true identity, this feeling was filled with a little more pity.

Jiang Baobei was different. Ah Wu clearly realized this.

Because she had experienced her whole life and felt all her ups and downs, joys and sorrows with her.

She watched her go from being weak and fragile to putting on armor for herself step by step. She watched her appear indestructible on the outside but actually covered in scars.

There was no one in the world who understood each other better than she did.

“Okay, we’ll be good friends for life.”

Jiang Baobei never thought that the first words of love she heard from the bottom of her heart would actually come from ‘her’ own mouth. This feeling was so amazing.

But there was no doubt that Jiang Baobei was happy at this time.

As a friend, she would protect her from the wind and rain and help her overcome all obstacles along the way.

“Brother, have you put the gift on Junior Qiu’s desk?”

Xu Changfeng and Wan Xiaokang accompanied He Zhan as they squatted behind the bushes in the flower bed, watching Qiu Wu and Jiang Baobei walking side by side from the canteen toward the teaching building like a group of perverted idiots.

When Qiu Wu returned to the classroom, she should be able to see the small gift placed in the drawer of her desk.

“Of course.”

He Zhan held a lollipop in his mouth and smiled sweetly.

He had chosen this gift after a long period of careful selection. It was a straw rabbit that he saw in a craft boutique. The workmanship was extremely exquisite.

He Zhan took a liking to the little rabbit at a glance, and his intuition told him that Qiu Wu would like this gift.

“Then, did you write down the name of the person who gave the gift? If you didn’t, how would Junior Qiu know that the gift was from you?”

Xu Changfeng also had a lollipop in his mouth and asked in a somewhat unclear voice.

He Zhan’s proud smile froze. He squatted silently behind the bushes, with helplessness, pity, and sadness written all over his body.

“It doesn’t matter. Just remember to write it down when you give the gift for Junior Qiu’s birthday next year.”

Looking at his elder brother like this, Xu Changfeng quickly said a few words to comfort him.

“But, Brother, if you want to chase after Junior Qiu, then just go for it. But why do you have to quit smoking? Not only did you quit smoking yourself, but you also forced us to quit smoking together.”

Xu Changfeng and others were not too addicted to smoking, but they would still smoke four or five cigarettes a day. They couldn’t remember why they started smoking in the first place. They probably thought smoking made them look handsome, like adults.

Now that they had become addicted, they suddenly had to quit, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.

“What do you know? Most girls don’t like the smell of cigarettes. Besides, don’t you know how poisonous second-hand smoke is? If you don’t quit smoking now, will you be chronically poisoned when Qiu Qiu and I are together?”

He Zhan also felt that the taste in his mouth was a bit bland, so he bit off half of the lollipop as if to vent his anger, chewing it as if to relieve his addiction.

“Brother, let’s keep a safe distance from Sister-in-law from now on. How about you let us smoke just one?”

Wan Xiaokang didn’t want to eat lollipops anymore. This didn’t fit in with his cool and awesome temperament. Eating candies or something like that made him look a bit sissy.

“No, if you don’t quit smoking, I will be polluted by you if I stay with you.”

He Zhan thought that as good brothers, they must experience this painful process of quitting smoking together.

“Eh.”

Wan Xiaokang sighed and then helplessly licked the lollipop in his hand.

“You three, I’m talking to you. You come here to smoke again.”

The dean was elusive and appeared behind the flower bed at some point. He happened to see He Zhan and others squatting behind the bushes with their backs turned to him.

“Ha?”

The three of them turned around at the same time, holding lollipops in their mouths, with the same confused expressions.
