School season.

There was a drizzle last night, but it still couldn't block the scorching sun the next day, and the small puddles on the ground were quickly evaporated by the high temperature.

A bustling crowd of freshmen stood in front of the gate of Jingshi University, dragging their heavy suitcases, their eyes full of anticipation for college life.

Parents who came to send their children to school also dragged their children to take photos at the school gate. As one of the famous universities in China, having their children enrolled in Beijing University is definitely something they can brag about in the surrounding area.

Zhang Pei and alumni who were welcoming the new students gave directions to a few new students and then stood in the shade for a short rest.

Zhang Pei looked at the classmate who volunteered to carry a schoolgirl's suitcase but failed and whose face turned red. He and the people around him laughed at him, "Goose, goose, goose, goose."

Halfway through her laugh, she seemed to have thought of something, took out her cell phone, opened the chat app and entered a dialog box.

The other party's latest reply was before the summer vacation, and all the messages she sent during the summer vacation had no impact, and she didn't know whether the other party read them or not.

Seeing her frowning and looking at her phone screen with a sulky expression, the classmate next to her asked casually: "What's wrong? Is your boyfriend annoying you?"

Zhang Pei sighed and put away her phone, "My boyfriend has no chance to make me angry."

Because she won't get angry with the other person, but will just switch to the next one.

"What's the reason?"

Zhang Pei scratched his head, looking helpless, "Xiaoxue hasn't replied to my message yet, it's so annoying!"

When she mentioned "Xiaoxue", the people around her instantly became interested and started talking about it.

"I remember that Nian Xue came from the Tongxin Welfare Home, right?"

The reason they knew that Nian Xue was from Tongxin Welfare Home was because one of her suitors said it out of anger after being rejected.

Because of this, the counselor privately asked Nianxue whether she needed to apply for a scholarship or student loan.

They usually take good care of the students who come from this welfare home.

but……

"Is the Tongxin Welfare Home where Nian Xue is the same Tongxin Welfare Home that was recently registered online?" someone couldn't help but ask Zhang Pei.

Zhang Pei shook his head. "I don't know. Xiaoxue hasn't replied to me since before the summer vacation. There's no update on her Moments. I don't know what she's doing."

A boy next to her was surprised and asked, "Aren't you her best friend? Why didn't she reply to you?"

"Even the best friends need their own private space, okay?" Before Zhang Pei could say anything, a girl next to her couldn't help but retort to the boy who asked the question.

"I'm just asking..." The boy shut up angrily.

"What you asked is really meaningless. It's like you're trying to sow discord between them." The girl rolled her eyes at the boy and walked over to Zhang Pei.

Boy: “…”

He really just asked casually...

Zhang Pei smiled at the girl and said, "Thank you."

"Don't thank me yet. Find out more about Nian Xue later, and don't forget to share some of the melon with us." The girl said with a smile.

Zhang Pei was still smiling, but did not respond to her. He turned around and looked at the people passing by.

Suddenly, her eyes paused, the surprise on her face magnified, and she rushed in one direction.

A girl wearing a sun hat and pulling a black suitcase also noticed her and stopped where she was, as if she was thinking about whether to avoid the other person's warm hug.

"Xiaoxue!" Zhang Pei's face was filled with smiles, full of surprise at seeing the person he wanted to see. He jumped and hung his arms around the other person's neck.

Seeing her smile, Nian Xue raised the corners of her mouth and whispered softly: "Pepe."

"Why didn't you talk to me for the whole summer?" Zhang Pei stopped smiling, stood up straight, raised his chin towards the person in front of him and started to settle accounts.

Nian Xue thought about what she had done this summer and summed it up simply, "I'm working a summer job and don't have time."

"Is it tiring to work during the summer vacation?" Zhang Pei immediately asked with concern, but then he felt something was wrong, crossed his arms, and snorted, "You're lying. What kind of job doesn't even allow time to use your phone?"

"Haven't you seen the video? People can even pause during extreme competitions to reply to their partners' messages!" Zhang Pei circled around Nian Xue in dissatisfaction, "I'm your eldest daughter, and I don't even get this little treatment?"

Nian Xue laughed, but she really couldn't tell anyone about her work this summer. "Sorry, what kind of compensation do you want? Hot pot? BBQ?"

Sensing the tolerance in Nian Xue's words, the dissatisfaction on Zhang Pei's face faded, "You're smart. Forget about the hot pot and barbecue. As a punishment, you have to cook for me this week."

"Okay." Nian Xue agreed immediately.

Seeing how straightforward she was, Zhang Pei couldn't help but reveal an annoyed expression on his face. He should have asked for a few more weeks!

"Nian Xue!" The classmate who had originally welcomed the new students with Zhang Pei came over.

There was curiosity in their eyes as they pushed each other, and no one was too embarrassed to ask first.

Even though Nian Xue was quite patient with Zhang Pei, there were so many people in the school and apart from the stray animals on campus, she was the only one treated so patiently. Just as Zhang Pei said, she was the eldest daughter of Nian Xue and had privileges.

They didn't.

Nian Xue nodded to the newcomers and said to everyone: "Hello."

Zhang Pei glanced at Nian Xue's serious expression, and he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth. He looked very proud, and he unconsciously straightened his chest and back.

She is unique in Xiaoxue's heart!

The girl who had spoken up for Zhang Pei and Nian Xue's relationship before almost rolled her eyes again when she saw Zhang Pei's little expression.

She said to Nian Xue bluntly: "We just want to ask you, are you from Tongxin Welfare Home, a charity organization under the name of a wealthy company?"

When the others heard this, their eyes widened and they secretly gave a thumbs up to the girl for her courage in not being polite at all.

Warrior!

You know, what Nian Xue is most famous for in school is not her background in an orphanage or her IQ that is so high that it can throw them all over the place!

Nian Xue didn't even blink when she heard this, "Yes."

As if she had thought of something interesting, a hint of nostalgia appeared on her face.

The girl didn't expect the other party to be so open-minded. She pursed her lips and asked again: "If that's the case, why did you apply to a university in Beijing instead of a university in a rich country?"

"I heard that universities in rich countries are free and provide living allowances. If you apply to universities in rich countries, you don't have to work to earn tuition fees anymore."

"Ah, this..." When Nian Xue heard the girl's words, a rare look of helplessness appeared on her face, which made everyone who thought that she would face the end of the world fearlessly even more shocked.

"Because I failed the physical test." Nian Xue said helplessly.

The sound was not loud, but it made everyone's brains stop working.

Everyone tilted their heads, their eyes full of confusion: "???"

What are you talking about?

You said you failed the physical test?

You are a person who broke the national record in long and short distance running, and you said you failed the physical test?!

You, a guy who played every sport in the school and never had girls cheering for him, said you failed the physical test?!

You, a guy who fought 20 hooligans in the food court next door without any casualties, say you failed the physical test?!

Everyone held their breath and strongly suspected that Nian Xue was in Versailles!

But the expression on her face was very serious, it didn't seem like she was pretending to be silly with them...
