Waiting for you at the place where you are reborn

Du Qingqing looked at him in astonishment, and the boy next to her widened his eyes, as if he was a visitor from outer space.

Fang Zheng took the things from Du Qingqing with an expressionless face and shouted, "Let's go," completely ignoring the boy who sent her back.

Du Qingqing hurriedly said to the boy: "Thank you for sending me back, I can go in by myself."

The boy looked at Fang Zheng with dissatisfaction, his eyes blazing with fire, and asked arrogantly, "Who is he?"

"He is my neighbor." Du Qingqing said.

The boy stared at Fang Zheng provocatively, "I'll wait for you at the school gate tomorrow."

"No need. I've already troubled you a lot today." Du Qingqing said.

Fang Zheng didn't see the boy's eyes. He walked in front with his back to the two of them and shouted, "Qingqing, hurry up."

"Goodbye." After Du Qingqing said that to the boy, she took two quick steps to catch up with Fang Zheng.

Du Qingqing remained silent the whole way, thinking about Fang Zheng's strange behavior just now. He usually called her "Du Qingqing" and would not speak to her so affectionately.

When they arrived at Du Qingqing's house and saw that no one was home, Fang Zheng asked, "Did you reject Bo Tong because of that boy?"

Du Qingqing was startled and said quickly, "He is my high school classmate Yao Anyu."

"Do you like him?"

"How could I like him? He just helped me get something back. Stop talking nonsense." Du Qingqing said as she squatted down to organize the bag she had just brought back. The bag was full of clothes she had brought back from the school dormitory.

"Then why did you let him take you home? You treat him better than Botong."

"Fang Zheng," Du Qingqing shouted, "If you keep talking nonsense--" Her face flushed, and she bit her lip and looked at Fang Zheng helplessly.

Looking at Du Qingqing's cute and adorable appearance, Fang Zheng smiled: "I was just kidding you." He walked over and pinched her face, "Why are you still like a child, blushing all the time?"

Du Qingqing's face turned even redder when Fang Zheng pinched it. She stammered, "I always thought of Botong as my brother."

Fang Zheng leaned close to her ear and asked, "Who is that Yao Anyu?"

Du Qingqing looked at Fang Zheng, "He—is a classmate."

"Just classmates?" Fang Zheng asked aggressively.

Du Qingqing nodded.

Fang Zheng felt relieved after hearing Du Qingqing's answer. He thought he got the answer that Bo Tong wanted.

"Okay, I'll go home then." Fang Zheng walked towards the door. "Is your mother working the night shift again?"

"Well, she's been working the night shift this week."

Fang Zheng turned back into the room after hearing this and asked, "Are you eating alone?"

"Ok!"

"Anyway, I'm alone tonight, and my aunt and uncle aren't coming home for dinner, so I'll just have to eat with you reluctantly."

Du Qingqing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll make whatever you want to eat."

"Let me cook for you." Fang Zheng walked into the kitchen.

"Okay, I'll help you." Du Qingqing stood up briskly and put down the bag that had not been packed yet.

Walking into the kitchen, Fang Zheng saw two fish swimming in Du Qingqing's bucket. He turned to her and said, "I'll cook some fish for you."

Du Qingqing nodded and said, "Okay. This was sent by my uncle in the countryside. He has been raising it for several days. We dare not kill the fish, so my mother asked me to send it to your family to eat."

"Come to me for this kind of thing in the future. Cooking fish is my strong point." Fang Zheng said as he grabbed a fish from the bucket and placed it on the chopping board. The fish was out of water and kept flapping its wings.
