Rong Xuan was quite fond of and was good at doing small crafts. Making a greeting card wasn’t difficult for her at all. She even asked a girl in class for some dried flowers to decorate it.

These days, she had worked hard to improve her interpersonal relationships and had become familiar with quite a few of the girls and boys in her class. So when she said she needed some dried flowers, the girl gave her a lot without a word.

She planned to make one side of the greeting card three-dimensional, which would make it more special.

Tong Yue was looking on in amazement. “Xuanxuan, I didn’t expect you to be so good at making crafts.”

Rong Xuan smiled and wrote on the paper, ‘This is very simple’. In addition to greeting cards, she could also fold paper cranes and little stars. It could be used to offset the price at Haidilao^[1]Sichuan hotpot restaurant chain. She could do a lot, thus she could receive a lot of discount.

Tong Yue didn’t have the patience to learn this kind of stuff. It didn’t cost much to buy a greeting card now and she didn’t want to waste that kind of time. It might be because she hadn’t met anyone that could make her willingly do so, but regardless, it didn’t stop her from looking at Rong Xuan with admiration.

In fact, after Rong Xuan’s eyes had lost their past hostility, she felt that Rong Xuan was really like a gentle little fairy.

When school was over, Rong Yi didn’t get on the car.

Rong Xuan glanced at Rong Yi. She was all dressed up today. She’s wearing a light pink short coat from C brand paired with a skirt of the same color, and a subtle makeup on her face. Rong Xuan had no idea what she’s planning on doing. In such a cold weather, Rong Yi went out of her way to look pretty.

Rong Yi stood outside the car and looked at Rong Xuan with an unclear expression, “Are you going home now?”

Rong Xuan gave Rong Yi a look that said ‘Otherwise?’

Rong Yi breathed a sigh of relief and a smile couldn’t help but appear on her face. It would be great if Rong Xuan goes home soon. She said to the driver while smiling, “You can drive her home, I’ll go back by myself later.”

The driver didn’t ask any more questions. He’s just the driver and couldn’t control the young lady’s actions. Rong Xuan was even less curious about her itinerary. After Rong Yi said that she wasn’t getting on, the driver drove away.

After the car disappeared from sight, Rong Yi warmly and excitedly called her best friend, ready to go to Gu Ye’s school to watch him play.

———

During the winter vacation, there would be a ‘New Century Cup’ basketball league for high school students. Gu Ye and Sheng Shihao would go to the basketball court to play after classes these days.

Although Hao Qiang and Ning Zichen wouldn’t participate in the competition, they would still watch from the sidelines to cheer for Gu Ye.

As soon as school was over, the basketball court became crowded. In addition to girls from their own school, there were also boys and girls from other schools who came to watch Gu Ye play. No one dislikes beautiful things, men and women alike. Gu Ye’s good looks were enough for them to stay on the edge of the basketball court, not to mention the fact that he plays well.

Gu Ye’s height was destined to give him an advantage in playing. He was only seventeen years old but was already 1.85 meters tall. When he reaches adulthood, achieving 1.88 meters would definitely not be a problem.

But with so many people coming around to watch, Gu Ye was so annoyed these days that he was planning to rent out the nearest gymnasium where outsiders couldn’t enter casually to practice.

There were all kinds of girls around, chattering annoyingly. At this time, he inexplicably thought of his fiancée. Every time she was with him, she was quiet and looked well-behaved. Although she made him angry yesterday when she sent him money, at least she was much cuter than the current group of girls.

Gu Ye was thinking about Rong Xuan as he snatched the ball from his opponent’s hand in one swift movement. He flexibly used fake moves to bypass various opponents, aim, jumped, and with a clang, the ball circled around the rim for several times before finally going in!

Not long after the game started, Gu Ye scored.

Various cheers rang out from the sidelines.

“Gu Ye’s the best!”

“Gu Ye’s so handsome!”

“Baby, Mommy loves you!”

Gu Ye frowned slightly when she heard the last sentence. He gestured to several people on the court and then walked outside.

Gu Ye took his mobile phone from Hao Qiang. He found Rong Xuan’s WeChat and sent her a message.

———

On the benches, Rong Yi closely watched Gu Ye’s every move.

Her best friend stretched her neck curiously. “Hey, what’s your crush doing?”

Rong Yi bit her lower lip, full of curiosity as well. She tried to stand on tiptoes to see what Gu Ye was doing. Unfortunately, she wasn’t tall enough and there were too many people in front of her so she couldn’t see it at all.

At this time, she hated the fact that she’s only 1.65 meters tall, but Rong Xuan, who was a few months younger than her, was three centimeters taller. Rong Yi’s heart was a little anxious for some reason. She said irritably, “Why are you asking me? I don’t know either.”

Gu Ye came out the court and picked up his phone as soon as he scored a goal, something that has never happened before.

Other boys might hold on to their mobile phones whenever they have free time, but Gu Ye was different from them. He’s usually busy and had many friends to chat with, so he’s not so dependent on his mobile phone. He had never looked at his phone during practice before.

What’s going on today?

At this time, a conversation came clearly from the front.

A girl looked surprised. “Hey, Gu Shao seems to have opened WeChat?”

The girl’s friend immediately asked with curiosity, “WeChat? Are you sure?”

The girl nodded and said confidently, “I’m sure. That interface is definitely WeChat.”

The girl’s friend then asked, “Who is he messaging?”

The girl hummed. “I’m guessing he’s sending it to his girlfriend.”

The friend looked incredulous. “Gu Shao actually has a girlfriend?”

The girl’s face was full of heartache and regret, but she still said, “Didn’t you see the ring on his hand?”

The ring on Gu Ye’s hand was so eye-catching. In fact, everyone has noticed it, it’s just that no one has asked. They’re afraid of getting an answer that would disappoint them.

Some of the girls like Gu Ye, in fact, to the same extent as star chasers. They were all Gu Ye’s girlfriend and wife fans. If they knew that Gu Ye had a significant other, they would definitely be heartbroken.

The girl finally said, “If he didn’t have a girlfriend, why would he carry that with him? It can’t be for fun, can it? He’s not that kind of person.”

Rong Yi, who had completely heard the conversation between the two, turned slightly pale.

Gu Ye actually opened WeChat at this time.

Who was he messaging? Could it be her mute sister?

No, it couldn’t be.

Rong Yi tried to comfort herself by saying that the matter still wasn’t clear and she mustn’t scare herself.

According to Gu Ye’s temperament, he wasn’t the type to send a message to Rong Xuan. Besides, what could he say? He and Rong Xuan had only known each other for a short time so they probably had nothing in common to talk about.

Therefore, it definitely wouldn’t be what the girl said.

———

On the other side, Rong Xuan, who was making a greeting card in her room, noticed that the phone on the table vibrated.

A new message has arrived. She didn’t have many WeChat friends, so who could be messaging her?

Thinking like this, Rong Xuan picked up her phone and glanced at it, finding that the message was from Gu Ye.

【Gu Ye: Little Bride, I scored.】

A simple sentence that wasn’t really special.

But when Rong Xuan saw it, she inexplicably felt that Gu Ye was sharing his joy with her.
