Xiao Chen put the box to one side and sprawled on the sofa, saying innocently, "You told me to look at it."
"When did I tell you to look?"
"Last night."
"Then I—" Yu Na carefully recalled that there did seem to be such a thing, but she was unwilling to sophistically argue, "I was drunk then, and you took it seriously."
"No, you almost stuck your phone to my face. If I didn't look, how could I not give you face?" He smirked, "Right?"
"......"
"Moreover," Xiao Chen pulled her arm towards himself slightly, making her sit on his lap, "What's there to be afraid of showing me, hmm?"
Seeing that Yu Na just sat quietly on his lap without saying a word.
Xiao Chen went on to say, "Look at my moments."
"Huh?"
Since getting together with Xiao Chen, Yu Na rarely posted on Moments, and rarely browsed Moments.
If there was anything new, she would tell him face-to-face, or send him a WeChat message.
She opened Moments and saw that Xiao Chen had posted a selfie with her in the early morning, along with that embarrassing caption.
"How can you post like this!" Yu Na's face turned red, but still shamelessly liked it.
She was both angry and amused. "When have I been so clingy."
"Tsk, who was the one yesterday who wouldn't let go of me."
"......"
Here was different from London. Getting around required taking taxis or the subway.
Here, the city center could be traversed by foot.
Back then, Yu Na paid 500 pounds a day to hire Lin Shuan to play with her.
It was also then that she got to know Xiao Chen through Lin Shuan.
They were already in their third year. Lin Shuan was very busy later on, and really couldn't make time, so he handed over this glorious task to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen resolutely refused her pay.
The two got more and more familiar with each other.
When Xiao Chen was free, he would often take Yu Na to various places to have fun, and he took great care of her.
During this time, Yu Na became more and more dependent on him.
So every part of Luo Wei was a memory for her.
Xiao Chen graduated with his bachelor's degree, while Yu Na had just finished her first year. After Xiao Chen left, she felt that the small city of Luo Wei instantly became empty.
Even speaking seemed to echo.
Xiao Chen held her hand and said, "It's really been too long since I came back, I didn't expect there to be no change at all."
Yu Na pointed at the mall, "Do you remember? You took me shopping then."
"Of course I remember, accompanying you shopping really made me suffer."
Back then, when Yu Na went shopping, she did so without any hesitation.
She started by looking at the most expensive items. The salespeople at every boutique beamed at her.
Every time she went shopping, she could carry back a pile of luxury goods.
Xiao Chen was afraid she would be targeted by bad people, so he bought several large bags from the pound shop, and put all her luxury goods in pound shop bags.
The exquisite luxurious packaging, under the foil of the pound shop bags, quickly became "that mess".
Thinking about it now, it was still very funny.
Yu Na couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xiao Chen turned his head, "What are you laughing about?"
"I'm thinking about how you used to help me package my luxury goods in pound shop bags."
Xiao Chen also recalled that time, helplessly saying, "Sigh, from that time on, I was like a servant. My girlfriend isn't easy to handle, hmm?"
He fished out his card holder from his pocket, and pulled out a black card from inside, "Shall we go shopping again today?"
"Don't want to shop anymore. I'm tired of this place."
Yu Na snatched his black card. "Let's walk around the school."
"Okay."
They walked to the school. Everywhere were young new faces.
Xiao Chen even ran into his former supervisor.
The supervisor was a local, and had a deep impression of Xiao Chen. Even after so many years, he could recognize him at a glance.
The two greeted each other enthusiastically.
The supervisor's gaze also turned to Yu Na.
She also looked a little familiar to him.
Xiao Chen straightforwardly explained, "She's my girlfriend."
Hearing this, the supervisor suddenly realized, "I remember now!"
Back then, because Yu Na didn't want to go back and be under the supervision of that group of people, she deliberately dragged her time at the school.
Xiao Chen brought her along to sit in on his lectures in the tiered classrooms.
The supervisor beamed and made exaggerated expressions. "I wish you both the best!"
After the supervisor left,
Yu Na clung to his arm and shook it, "Your supervisor has such a good memory. So many years have passed, yet he still remembers you."
"Of course people keep me in mind. Wherever I go, since your boyfriend is so outstanding."
She poked his chin, "......Narcissist!"
They walked to a certain classroom building outside, and Yu Na suddenly stopped -
"Xiao Chen."
Xiao Chen was startled, putting his arm around her shoulders, "Let's go!"
"Do you remember? It was here that you rejected me at first. You said we wouldn't be together, and that you and I weren't from the same world."
"......" Xiao Chen: "That was jerk behavior. I'm human now."
Yu Na refused to leave. In front of the classroom building, she had a solemn expression, "No, you have to promise here that you'll always be good to me."
"Okay," Xiao Chen also became serious. He grabbed Yu Na's shoulders, "I will always dote on you and treat you well."
The corners of Yu Na's mouth curved up. "Good."
However, Xiao Chen's tone changed right away in the next sentence, "If I don't treat you well, I'll go out and get hit by a car!"
Yu Na: ???
"No, no!" Yu Na covered his mouth, "Don't say such unlucky things."
"What's there to be afraid of? I would never not treat you well anyway."
Xiao Chen was like a child, with stubborn and adorable expressions and tone.
Yu Na was rendered powerless to retaliate. She tiptoed and leaned in to kiss his lips, "I believe you."
Witnessed by the sunset, at the place of Yu Na's painful memories, he solemnly promised her that he would always treat her well for the rest of their lives, and that they would never separate again.
As they walked along, they arrived at the place where Yu Na first met Xiao Chen.
That day, she had Lin Shuan accompany her to dinner with the son of a prominent family. This was a meeting her father had arranged remotely. That boy was pursuing her ardently, but Yu Na didn't like him, so she asked Lin Shuan to accompany her.
Lin Shuan had Han Chengxun come pick her up, and Han Chengxun also brought Xiao Chen along.
After dinner, Yu Na saw in the distance, under a tree, two boys standing there.
That was the first time she met Xiao Chen.
Under that ordinary, inconspicuous tree, it became extraordinary because of his presence there.
She secretly took out her phone, and when Xiao Chen walked under that tree, she suddenly overlapped with the scene in her memory, secretly snapping a photo of his back.
The familiar feeling of her heart racing surged up once more.
In that instant, it was as if she had returned to the past.
"Xiao Chen!"
Xiao Chen turned around, and before he could ask what she was doing, she ran towards him.
Xiao Chen swallowed his question and opened his arms.
Yu Na let go of her shyness, recklessly rushing into his embrace.
"This is where we first met, do you remember?" Joy flashed through her eyes as she held him. "Right under this tree."
Of course he remembered.
Back then, Yu Na was very famous in the international student circle, Xiao Chen had only heard of her, but never seen her before.
The first time seeing her here, although they didn't greet each other, just a fleeting glance, at the time, he was stunned by her looks.
He thought to himself that this young miss really was God's favorite.
"I remember, silly," he said. "Of course I remember."
Also on that night, after Yu Na ordered the burly driver to not follow her, the driver didn't dare to disobey the young miss, and reluctantly agreed.
After the driver left, Yu Na turned around to look for Lin Shuan.
At the time, Lin Shuan hadn't eaten his fill, so he and Han Chengxun and Xiao Chen were eating supper at a fast food place.
When Yu Na came, Lin Shuan had her sit next to Xiao Chen.
This was the first time she and Xiao Chen interacted.
That night, Xiao Chen also sent Yu Na home.
Those memories from the past reappeared at this moment.
Xiao Chen saw what was on her mind, and took the initiative to ask, "Are you thinking of going to that fast food place?"
Yu Na's train of thought was pulled back. "How did you know?"
"I don't understand you?" Xiao Chen smiled proudly, "Let's go, order that set meal again?"
"Good!"
......
Those few days, they didn't go anywhere else, played here for a few days, and went to all the places in their memories.
This time, it was as a couple.
A week later, they returned to Chang Wan.
The new semester was senior year of high school, which was also a test for the teachers.
Back in Chang Wan, Yu Na had meetings, trainings, she barely rested at all.
In the busyness, time passed quickly.
Before they knew it, the new semester for senior year arrived.
Yu Na pulled herself out of the vacation, and immediately threw herself into intense work.
However, just a few days after school started, Qiao Rui and Xu Yi caused her a big headache again.
