“Wenyuan, why are you here?”
It was close to the end of the semester, and Mu Wanwan took nearly a month off because of her parents’ accident. In the highly competitive Finance Department, in order to make up for the missed courses and pass the exams in various subjects, Mu Wanwan spent almost all her energy in the library during the time she returned to school.
As for her boyfriend Lu Wenyuan, for various reasons, Mu Wanwan ignored him intentionally or unintentionally.
Lu Wenyuan knew that the death of Mu Wanwan’s father separated them from each other, so it was a good thing for both parties to let each other calm down for a while.
Until now, Lu Wenyuan didn’t think that their relationship would end because of this incident. Because he knew in his heart how innocent Mu Wanwan was. He also knew the importance of this first love to Mu Wanwan.
Strictly speaking, the death of Mu Wanwan’s father was just an accident, and no one thought of causing this accident directly.
“Brown sugar ginger tea. Still warm.”
Under Mu Wanwan’s surprised eyes, Lu Wenyuan sat in the empty seat next to Mu Wanwan, holding a thermos cup in one hand and a few books in the other.
Mu Wanwan has always had dysmenorrhea. She had seen both Western and Chinese doctors, but with little effect. Every time during the first few days of her period, she would feel a strong pain in her lower abdomen.
Lu Wenyuan was really a very caring boyfriend. Mu Wanwan was careless in her daily life and often forgot to prepare ibuprofen and brown sugar ginger water to warm her stomach, but Lu Wenyuan never forgot.
Compared with the straight man who only verbally asked his girlfriend to drink more hot water, Lu Wenyuan would put his concern into practical action.
“You…”
Mu Wanwan hesitated to take the cup of brown sugar ginger water. When she was racking her brains to say something, she was stopped by Lu Wenyuan.
“Shh, if you have anything to say, wait until lunch.”
Lu Wenyuan pointed to the pile of professional books in front of Mu Wanwan and then pointed to the thick professional documents in front of him, indicating that they were in the library at the moment and it was not the time to chat. If they had anything to say, they could wait until lunchtime to talk slowly.
In front of Mu Wanwan, Lu Wenyuan had always been so gentlemanly and considerate.
Mu Wanwan swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and tacitly agreed to Lu Wenyuan’s proposal.
At first, Mu Wanwan was a little restless. She drank a few sips of warm brown sugar ginger water. She didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt that the pain in her lower abdomen seemed to have eased a little.
Mu Wanwan knew that her attention should be on the professional books in front of her, but she couldn’t help looking at her boyfriend next to her.
Was he angry because of her neglect during this period?
What would he say to her at lunch?
Would he try to understand her or express his dissatisfaction during this period?
When secretly watching her boyfriend, Mu Wanwan noticed that he was carefully flipping through the books he was taking notes on. They all seemed to be about investment and entrepreneurship, which reminded her of the ambitions her boyfriend had told her about before.
Mu Wanwan has always supported her boyfriend’s entrepreneurship. Before her father got into trouble, she had always wanted to help him financially. However, too many things happened during this period, which made her forget about it.
Mu Wanwan was lost in thought, but the surrounding environment was still too contagious.
It was the end of the semester, and the library was full of students writing furiously. With the sound of flipping books and swiping notes in her ears, Mu Wanwan soon immersed herself in the ocean of knowledge again.
It was just so practical and just the right way of doing things. When Mu Wanwan deliberately avoided him, Lu Wenyuan successfully made an appointment for lunch with her, and people could not find any fault with him.

“You can’t eat spicy food now, so let’s not order boiled beef this time. After your good friend leaves, I’ll take you here to satisfy your craving. By the way, I heard from the new student union officer that this restaurant has a few new Cantonese dishes with a lighter taste. Why don’t we try them?”
Lu Wenyuan’s family was not well-off, so Mu Wanwan was very considerate of her boyfriend. Therefore, the places where the two of them date most often were the school cafeteria and library.
Occasionally, when Lu Wenyuan got his tutoring salary at the end of the month, the two of them would go to restaurants near the school to satisfy their cravings.
There were few expensive restaurants near the university town, so during the relationship, the two did not spend much.
However, Lu Wenyuan’s attentiveness and consideration did not make Mu Wanwan feel that her quality of life had declined. On the contrary, it made her feel that every meal was very sweet.
Today, Lu Wenyuan brought Mu Wanwan to the restaurant where they had once gotten together.
Sitting in the window seat, Mu Wanwan suddenly felt guilty as she watched her boyfriend, who had memorized her menstrual period and took extra care of her body when ordering dishes.
They were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Strictly speaking, her father’s accidental death was her responsibility and had nothing to do with Lu Wenyuan because the idea of marrying Lu Wenyuan that popped up in her mind before was her own sudden whim. Perhaps Lu Wenyuan had never thought about getting married at all.
Thinking of this, Mu Wanwan felt even more depressed.
All the mistakes were caused by her. It seemed that she had been making wrong decisions since she wanted to marry Lu Wenyuan.
