evolution

Alas, I am a little reluctant. . .

☆, 17.1

"Qi Luo, take her to the pier."

"Yes."

The seaside was dark at night, and it was still raining.The blond boy pulled the rope and walked in front. The other end of the rope was tied to Xia Youran's hands.The incision on her calf hadn't healed yet, Xia Youran stumbled and walked behind Zhou Qiluo, the rain drenched both of them.

"Youran, have you never liked me?"

In front was the pier extending into the sea, Zhou Qiluo stood on the shore and did not move forward.One more step forward, and there is no way out.

Xia Youran seemed to be caught by his question, and after a while, she shook her head: "No, Qi Luo, I like you. But it's just from a friend."

Zhou Qiluo smiled, thinking that he is a fool for still struggling with this kind of problem.

"Let's go."

The hand holding the rope exerted a little force, and the woman behind her was dragged staggeringly by the rope.As if he didn't care, he strode towards the empty pier.The wharf stretches forward, into the distant sea, and there is no end in sight.

Tonight is the time to end.

Since she doesn't love him at all, she might as well die with him.

--

At this time, Bai Qi and Mu Li had also arrived at the beach.The wind brought a familiar breath, and he could feel that Youran was not far ahead.

The sea breeze was biting.Looking at the dark sea, Mu Li was slightly distracted.

When the rain fell on his cheeks in the winter night, Mu Li opened the umbrella in his hand.

It was an umbrella that was only big enough for one person, but she still stood in the rain, waiting for Bai Qi to come over, then raised her hand and tilted the small umbrella over.

While doing this series of actions, the cold rain wet the sleeve on the other side and wet the long hair.

Bai Qi wanted to refuse, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said, "Give me the umbrella."

She obediently obeyed, and handed over the umbrella that was only big enough for one person.

The umbrella is pure white, a color that is so spotlessly clean that it would have gotten dirty easily.But I don't know if it's because it's cold and deep winter tonight, or because the light is too dim, all the little stains caused by improper storage have disappeared.Pure white color, just like the moonlight.

Because the space under the umbrella is narrow, when covered by an umbrella, it is like being cut off from the cold night outside.She breathed the air around her, as if she could feel the breath that belonged to him alone.

But this is nothing more than a spiritual fantasy.In fact, on such a night, the only thing that can be smelled is the smell of sea water.

On the surface of the black sea, there was a faint fire.On the pier several kilometers deep into the sea, in the deserted darkness, there was a low voice singing.

It was a new song released by Zhou Qiluo before, and the title of the song was "Stay".

The moment you passed by, you never looked back, and never stayed...

Such lyrics are very similar to a hopeless unrequited love.

The low-pitched singing was engulfed by the rain, like a night bird lingering in the night sky.The blond boy was sitting on the pier in the sea, looking very lonely from his back.

Xia Youran's hands were tightly tied behind her back with a rope. She sat there, trembling slightly as if her slender body was about to be blown away by the sea breeze.

As if feeling something, Xia Youran looked in Bai Qi's direction.

Bai Qi stuffed the umbrella in his hand to Mu Li, and said hastily: "You wait for me here."

Mu Li tightly held the umbrella that seemed to be blown away by the wind, and stood there, feeling an indescribable discomfort in his heart.

He always, time and time again, let her see his back.

Every time, it is like this.Abandoning myself for another person, leaving without looking back for another person.

--

"Senior, you're still here." Xia Youran looked at Bai Qi and murmured, "You shouldn't have come."

Zhou Qiluo clenched the rope a little tighter, with a sarcastic smile on his lips: "No matter who comes today, she must die."

Bai Qi's face was cold: "Let her go."

Zhou Qiluo smiled: "She is here, won't you come over by yourself?"

Bai Qi walked quickly towards Xia Youran, and gradually drifted away from Mu Li behind him.

Looking at Bai Qi's receding figure, Mu Li blurred in his eyes as if melting into the black tide.And beside the ears, there was a sound like the ticking of a clock.That's the sound of the countdown!

Zhou Qiluo smiled lightly, and stroked the hair of the girl next to him: "When we arrive in that world, who will you choose to go with? With me, or with Bai Qi? Ah, I forgot. The person you like is Xu Mo ah……"

The blond boy smiled to himself: "However, I think it's better for you to accompany me. I can sing to you every day."

After the words fell, Zhou Qiluo suddenly pressed the button to explode.

Without any warning, the bomb installed under the pontoon bridge was detonated, and the water splashed into the sky in front of my eyes, and the pontoon bridge stretching into the sea collapsed in an instant.Amidst the deafening explosion, Xia Youran screamed and fell into a warm embrace.Bai Qi took her into the air, but Xia Youran looked at the sea below her without a moment's notice. The blond boy seemed to stretch out his hand towards her, and his body gradually sank into the sea.

Silently closing her eyes, Xia Youran felt the wind in her ears, as well as Bai Qi's somewhat rapid breathing.

"Senior, Qiluo, he..."

"You want to save him?"

"Do not……"

Qi Luo's heart has been twisted, and no matter what, it cannot be saved.

After Bai Qi rescued Xia Youran, he remembered Mu Li.But the rain and night blurred the vision, and with the smoke and dust after the explosion, it was impossible to find Muli.

The moment the pontoon bridge broke, Mu Li knew that she could only save herself, and she knew that Bai Qi would not have time to take care of her at this time.

However, she ran to the shore as fast as she could, but she couldn't catch up with the speed at which the bridge broke...

She never thought that she would die, and it was so tragic that she fell into the sea and drowned.

When her blood was frozen by the cold sea water, she was still thinking about these boring questions... her thoughts gradually drifted far away like clouds in the sky.The body, which was gradually becoming difficult to breathe, was suddenly gently supported by something cold and soft.

That is--

Plants in the sea.

The plants in the sleeping sea, as if they were waking up in an instant, gathered together and lifted the long-haired woman out of the sea.

"Muli..." Bai Qi looked at the strange scene in the sea, seemed to be relieved, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.He placed Xia Youran on the shore, planning to fetch Muli back.She was already soaked through, so she couldn't keep blowing like this... But at this moment, Xia Youran grabbed his arm tightly: "Bai Qi, don't go."

The rain wet her cheeks, and it looked like Xia Youran was crying.As if she was afraid, she held Bai Qi tightly, for fear that he would leave, "Don't go..."

"Youran, I..." He knew that he couldn't refuse her request cruelly, but if he didn't go through, Muli might freeze to death in the sea.It's deep winter now, the sea is already extremely cold, and he remembers that Mu Li seems to be afraid of the cold?

"Senior, please, don't go there! There's..." Xia Youran didn't speak, and a bullet shot from nowhere grazed Bai Qi's cheek.After a very short gasp, there was another gunshot, this time the bullet flew in Xia Youran's direction.

"What are you looking for?" A mocking laugh came from behind, "I'm here."

"Dad! Don't hurt the senior, he is innocent!"

"Heh, he is also an evolver, is there anything wrong with me killing him?"

Xia Youran stood in front of Bai Qi, and said to the man in the shadow: "In this case, kill me first!"

The pitiful girl was pointed at a gun by her adoptive father, and the atmosphere should have been serious.But someone laughed unkindly at this moment.

It's Bai Ye's laughter.

The boy who came out of the darkness, holding a giant rabbit doll in his arms, was out of breath laughing while holding his stomach.

"As expected of a sage queen, she must protect her knight even in the end." After saying such obvious irony, Bai Ye sneered, and turned to look at another person in the darkness, "Xu Mo Professor, your girlfriend is now protecting another man with her own life."

The moment the two of Blackswan appeared here, gunshots rang out again.It was still Xia Qiushi who shot, but instead of shooting at his daughter, he fired at Bai Ye on the other side.

"Ah, it's really dangerous." Bai Ye moved his arm that was scratched by the bullet nonchalantly, and pulled out a long and thin sword like that used by ancient knights from his waist.

"How about it? As a knight, it would be cooler to throw away the gun and use a sword?" Bai Ye's words were directed at Bai Qi.

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, glanced at his younger brother, and silently put down the raised gun, "I'll leave this to you, Bai Ye."

Bai Ye handed the rabbit in his arms to the short-haired woman standing beside him, turned his head to look at Xia Qiushi, and approached with a smile: "Your organization seems to be short of talents. Every time the boss plays by himself, it's not good. .”

"I just love the young kids."

Xia Qiushi showed a loving smile, but the gun in his hand did not show any mercy, and every shot was aimed at Bai Ye's heart.

When Bai Ye was entangled with Xia Qiushi, Xu Mo had already walked to Xia Youran's side, ignored Bai Qi, and took Xia Youran's hand: "Come with me, this place is too dangerous."

"But……"

"Nothing but!"

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Xia Youran finally compromised, Xu Mo held her hand tightly, as if afraid that she would leave again, and subconsciously used a lot of strength.

"It's not that easy to leave!" Xia Qiushi, who was fighting with Bai Ye, realized that Xia Youran wanted to leave, his eyes turned cold, "Xiaoling, Xiaona!"

As the words fell, a pair of twin sisters with ponytails jumped out laughingly, blocking Xia Youran's way.

"The master said, don't leave, hee hee." The twins said in unison.

Xu Mo frowned and stood in front of Xia Youran: "Youran, you go first, I'll come..."

Before the words fell, one of the twins had already moved, and the red bell made a crisp sound with the light laughter.

"Don't be distracted." The girl holding the bell smiled slightly.

"Because, I will die." Another girl holding a red fan has already bullied her.

Just a second before the sharp thorn at the tip of the red fan passed across her cheek, Xia Youran had already taken a step back, avoiding the attack of the fan-wielding girl in time. "Xu Mo! I can predict their movements, follow my instructions!"

"it is good."

On the other side, on the sea as black as ink, the people supported by countless plants have already passed out.Uncountable amounts of rain fell on that face that was so pale that it turned blue, and then slid down both sides of the cheeks.It looks like it's crying.

"Mu Li?"

"Ali!"

The moment before Bai Qi arrived, someone had already come to her side, hugging that frozen body tightly.

"A Li, A Li..." The black-haired man kept calling her name softly, using such an intimate address.

Bai Qi stood aside, inexplicably feeling a little... heartache?

He still remembered that the night she first came to the police station, he forced her to come out on a rainy night in order to find Youran.Although she didn't say anything, but after that she was hospitalized with acute pneumonia, it must be because of him.

This time, too, it was a rainy night.

she……

"John?" Mu Li opened his eyes and coughed out a mouthful of salty seawater.Then she looked over John and saw Bai Qi.

Although her whole body was drenched by rain, although her eyes looked so cold, although... the person he cared about was not herself, but she seemed to have no way not to like him.

Mu Li coughed, looked away, and asked the people around him: "John, why are you here?"

John didn't say anything, he hugged Mu Li and stuffed it into Bai Qi's arms: "I'll leave her to you. Now, immediately, immediately, take her to the hospital! I have other things to do."

Even if he is unwilling to hand over Mu Li to others, he still has something to do.

"Boss, here I come."

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, John." Bai Ye smiled lightly, as if he couldn't feel the pain of his arm being pierced by a bullet.

Now he just feels safe, since John is here, there is no danger here.

Bai Ye switched to holding the sword in his left hand, took a step back slowly, and came to John's side.

"Mr. Xia, please look this way~"

As long as the eyes meet, anyone will listen to John's hints.

However, what Xia Qiushi cared about at this moment was not the black-haired man who suddenly appeared, but what he cared about was the battlefield on the other side.

"Xiaoling Xiaona, don't worry about Xu Mo, kill Xia Youran quickly!"

In such an emergency, the only way to discuss the next step is to remove the people who must be removed first.

The awakened Xia Youran, as the Queen, must die!

"Good host!"

The two sisters are no longer entangled with Xu Mo, the ringing bells and crimson folding fans wave a beautiful night scene, but at the same time, it is also a beautiful scene with murderous intent.

While Xu Mo was pressed against his throat by the red fan, the girl holding the bell decisively pulled out a sharp dagger from her sleeve, and stabbed it into Xia Youran's chest at an extremely fast speed.

"Hee hee, how about it? Even if you can predict our actions, you still can't avoid it."

Xiaoling supported Xia Youran's back with one hand, and held the dagger in the other hand, inserted it tightly into her right chest lung, and then pulled out the dagger abruptly.Blood gushed out, and Xiaoling let go of Xia Youran's body that was about to fall down like throwing away trash.

Even if they could predict their actions, they still couldn't avoid them.Because, speed.The speed of these two people is too fast.

Thoughts are gradually passing away, but faster than the speed of thinking is the speed at which the body is falling.

Behind, is the sea.

If it falls into the sea, will it turn into foam like the mermaid princess?

still is……

Will it fly into the sky like the colorful butterflies that Xu Mo likes?

"Youran."

At the end of consciousness, only a very soft call was heard.That was Xu Mo's voice.

Ah, I really like Xu Mo more.

Just a second before Xia Youran was about to fall into the sea, Xu Mo grabbed her hand. "Youran, I won't let you die..."

Xia Youran fell into a coma and was held tightly in Xu Mo's arms.Xu Mo noticed Bai Qi and Mu Li beside him.

"I heard that the evol of this police officer is the power of life?"

Bai Qi looked back at Xu Mo indifferently: "So what?"

Ever since the day when he was shot in the ribs by Muli, and when he saw Muli use a special power to heal himself, Bai Qi already knew what Muli's evol was.

"Then let her use her evol to save Youran's life." Xu Mo said straightforwardly, "Otherwise, do you want to watch Youran die?"

"Impossible." Bai Qi refused without thinking.When the words came out, even he himself was somewhat surprised.

"Bai Qi, you..."

"Stop talking about these useless things, hurry up and take Youran to the hospital." Bai Qi hugged the unconscious Mu Li and left.He seemed to have forgotten the purpose of coming here tonight.

That night, the evol organization named "Savior" disappeared.Xia Qiushi, the leader of the organization, commits suicide, while Zhou Qiluo, Xia Qiushi's adopted son, goes missing in Luohai.

--

"Mu Li?"

"Muli, wake up..."

Bai Qi sent Mu Li to the hospital. She was lying in his arms, breathing steadily, but she still couldn't open her eyes again.

☆、18.1 (End)

Squirrel-gray snow piled up in the corner, and the sky had cleared.

This is the last snow this year.

Bai Qi looked up at the clear snowy sky, stepped on the little remaining snow, and headed to the cemetery outside the city.

"Bai Ye..." Bai Qi frowned slightly when he saw the young man leaning over in front of the tombstone, "What are you doing here?"

"It's brother... Let me come and see her, okay?" Bai Ye snorted, squatted down, and carefully arranged the pure white flowers.

Queen is dead.Not only is the goal of saving the world a complete failure, but for Bai Ye, there is also an irrepressible self-blame?After all, Xia Youran died because of her own plan.If she hadn't awakened, she wouldn't have been targeted by Xia Qiushi.But now, it's useless to say anything.

"That police sister, how is it?" Bai Ye asked.

"I'm going to the hospital." Bai Qi replied.

In the cold cemetery, because of the lack of people, there is still snow from last night.The two walked on the thin snow, without talking all the way.

"Brother, did you know that Xu Mo left Lianyu City, John and Mary returned to the United States, and among my 'subordinates', there are only those children who have evol."

It's hard to hide loneliness in words.

But with a kind of relief like relief.

"Ah, I finally don't have to worry about the end. The end is coming, so let's come."

Bai Ye talked casually, but Bai Qi never said a word.When the two reached their respective intersections, Bai Qi left first, while Bai Ye stood on the street, staring at the back of his brother leaving.

"Okay, it's time for me to go back."

Until Bai Qi's figure disappeared, Bai Ye slowly turned around and walked in a completely different direction.

In the bamboo forest outside the hospital, there is still thin snow.

However, the sleeping person cannot see.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, she can no longer see it.

When Bai Qi opened the door and entered, what he saw was Mu Li's peaceful sleeping profile.Beside the pillow of the hospital bed, there are a few books she once liked.For example, several short story collections by Osamu Dazai, and some romance novels that are said to be used by her to pass the time.The thin books are superimposed, and at first glance, there is also a thick stack.

It's like, memory.

Even if everything seems to be insignificant, but when added up, it is enough to shock people.

When going to her house to sort things out, Bai Qi saw the screensaver of her mobile phone.

It was a candid photo, and in the photo was his sleeping face.And in the corner of the photo, there are some texts that were probably posted by her own PS. The level of PS is terrible, and the position of the text is simply weird.But those few words made him helpless and heartbroken.

"Bai Qi, I have liked you for a long time."

Next to the text, a pink love heart was added foolishly.

So the real Muli is actually like this?Like all ordinary girls, she likes this kind of pink stuff and hides her heart implicitly.

It wasn't until the last moment that he understood her mind like a dull fool.

However, it was too late.

Too late……

"Officer Bai, are you here again?" The nurse pushed the cart in and began to measure Muli's body temperature and blood pressure.

"Yeah." Bai Qi stepped back from the bed and let the nurse work.

"When...will I wake up?" He still remembered the conversation with the doctor that day.

"Maybe a year, maybe a lifetime and I won't be able to wake up."

"Well, I see."

"Don't have too much hope, and of course there is no need to be completely disappointed. There is still a chance of waking up."

"Ah."

When it snows outside the window, he will think of the first day of the new year, the moment with her.

She was so close at hand, but she never noticed it. Since then, she has been...

"The signs are all normal, please rest assured." After the nurse finished measuring, she pushed the cart and left.

In the ward, there were only the two of them left.

Bai Qi sat by the hospital bed and opened one of her favorite books.

"Beyond this is the city of sorrow."[1]

The protagonists of this article are only Bai Qi + Mu Li [high school period] pure love story

About three chapters will come out, enjoy the sweetness (sour smell) of love! !hum~

1. Sakura

When I see the sparkle in your eyes, I know I have already fallen into it.

--

High school students are not allowed to have puppy love.

Of course she knew about this school rule, and she had no intention of competing with the school's director at all.

She doesn't want to fall in love early, and she feels that she won't fall in love early.

Because love refers to the matter of two people.

Two people who like each other are in love, and being together every day is love.

And she just liked that person unilaterally, and she was perfectly invisible, never dangling in his sight.

Perhaps until now, Bai Qi didn't even know that there was a girl in the next class who had a crush on him for a year.

Mu Li stood in an unoccupied corner on the edge of the playground, like a generous cat hiding in a dark corner, holding a glass of homemade honey water in his hand, his eyes lingering on the field.

This is not an excellent place to watch the game, but because of the poor location, it is very safe to stand here and peek without being disturbed.

She doesn't understand basketball at all, she just came over to take a look as a routine.

Bai Qi's figure can be seen from this angle, which is enough.

Bai Qi is a bad boy.

Although she didn't know exactly where he was "bad".

Maybe it's because the shiny purple earring on his right ear is too conspicuous, or maybe his eyes are too fierce, so he looks bad?

But it doesn't matter, she just likes him like this.

He is sharp on the outside and lonely on the inside.

She still remembers their first meeting in the rain, she saw Bai Qi surrounded by more than a dozen teenagers in the middle of the heavy rain.The white shirt was drenched with rain and blood, looking very pitiful.She just held an umbrella, watching him from a distance, and didn't go up to help.Bai Qi was beaten badly that day, but he was still able to stand up.

The rain washed his almost thin body, and at the same time washed her heart.

She saw the same lonely figure of the boy in the rain.

That figure seemed to overlap with his past self.

From then on, her eyes stayed on him, and she could never leave.

There was applause from the playground, it seemed that someone made a beautiful three-pointer.

Not wearing glasses, she squinted to see Bai Qi seemingly happily high-fiving his teammates before running away again.

Seeing that Bai Qi seemed to be smiling, she couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth.

A week later, Muli was appointed as the administrator of the school library, and his duty was to go to the library every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday afternoon to sort out the recycled books.

Mu Li saw Bai Qi unexpectedly.He came to borrow books.

"Are you an administrator?"

Mu Li nodded.

"I'd like to borrow a book on boxing."

"Wait a minute, I'll look for it for you."

This should be their first official conversation.

Muli's attitude was calm, even a little alienated.On the contrary, it was Bai Qi, whose tone of voice sounded very gentle, and he didn't feel like a bad boy at all.

She didn't deliberately alienate him, but she didn't know what attitude to use to treat him.

"I found it. It's on the second row of bookshelves in Area H. Do you want me to lead you there?"

"Well, please excuse me."

Mu Li got up from his seat, "Come with me."

She thought it was Bai Qi's first visit to the library, looking around while walking, she secretly laughed in her heart, thinking that he was sometimes stupid.

She has been to the library since she entered the school in the first year of high school, and now she is in the second year of high school.Within two years, she had already memorized the terrain here.

If the court is Bai Qi's territory, then this is her territory.

Today, she took him to visit her territory.

Thinking of this, Mu Li felt a strange sense of satisfaction, and at the same time he had a new impression of Bai Qi.

It seems that he is not as unreasonable as he imagined.

"Here we are. All sports books are on the bookshelf here. If you don't have the book you want, you can come to me again."

Bai nodded, and she went back to work.

When the library closed at 7:[-] pm, Mu Li remembered that Bai Qi hadn't left yet. After thinking about it, he went to look for him in the H area at the back.

Passing through rows of bookshelves, the only sound of my own footsteps can be heard in the extremely quiet library.Then, she saw an unforgettable scene.

The boy in the white shirt was leaning against the wall, seemingly asleep.The warm yellow light illuminated the cold side face, one button of the shirt was undone, and it was slightly opened.

She accidentally saw it, and subconsciously looked away, her face flushed slightly.

However, remembering that Bai Qi was already asleep at this time and would not notice it at all, she boldly took another look.

On the boy's slender collarbone, there was a glaring scar.

She had never noticed it before, and she felt distressed and squatted down curiously, wanting to get close to him to take a closer look at the scar.

At this moment, Bai Qi woke up.

"Huh?" The cold voice was misty after waking up.

Mu Li was leaning very close to him, almost lying on his body, when he suddenly heard a low question in his ear, he was startled.

"What's wrong?" After two seconds, Bai Qi seemed to wake up, with a hint of doubt in his amber eyes.

But he was just confused and didn't reach out to push her away.

The girl's jet-black long hair fell down as she leaned over, almost separating the two of them in another space.In this space, there are only two people looking at each other inadvertently.

Mu Li panicked and said "I'm sorry", and quickly stood up.

The long black hair that was originally entangled in front of his eyes left.

Mu Li's face turned red, he didn't dare to look at him, and repeated in his mouth: "I'm sorry. I was just curious..."

"Curious what?"

"Your...scars..."

She said it almost in a whisper.

She was a little worried, wondering if he would be angry.

"You're talking about this?" Bai Qi didn't seem to care at all, his fingers ran across the scar on his collarbone, "It's from a previous fight."

"Well, that... I'm here to remind you that the library is closing."

"Sorry, I don't seem to be suitable for reading, so I accidentally fell asleep." Bai Qi chuckled and inserted the book in his hand into the shelf, looking at Mu Li, "Are you a student here too?"

"Well, sophomore."

"Second year? But I haven't met you. What's your name?"

"Muli." She replied while arranging the last few books.

"Muli..." Bai Qi read her name and smiled softly, "I've heard of your name before. There is a boy in our class who seems to like you very much."

Mu Li froze a little, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.She sorted out the last few books stiffly, and put the returned books back in place.Bai Qi stood aside and looked at her, and said, "I'll wait for you, let's go together when we're done."

Five minutes later, Mu Li put the last book back on the shelf and told Bai Qi that she was ready.Bai Qi helped turn off the lights, Mu Li locked the door, and the two left the library together.

It seemed that there were only the two of them left on the campus at night, under the moon were the unblooming cherry blossoms, and on the ground were the reflections of the two walking side by side.

Under the silver moonlight, the cherry blossoms waiting to bloom on the branches seemed to be dazzling purple.

"Mu Li." Bai Qi said suddenly.

"Huh?" She turned her head to look at him, and found that Bai Qi's eyes were three points blurred, which was very different from his usual.

"The moonlight is beautiful tonight."

"Well, yes."

She couldn't figure out what was going on with Bai Qi, she echoed in her mouth, but she was very strange in her heart.

At this moment, Bai Qi suddenly stopped in his tracks, lowered his eyes, and stared at her quietly with amber eyes.

"What's wrong?" Mu Li couldn't help feeling strange, and turned to look at him.

It was the first time for her to observe his appearance carefully.The eyelashes are long and the eyes are beautiful.Although the eyes are bright, they give people a cold feeling.What is the best word to describe him?

Mu Li racked his brains, but couldn't think of a suitable word.

Just when she was frowning, Bai Qi walked towards her, with a little confusion in his eyes, he called softly again: "Muli?"

Mu Li was at a loss, "Bai Qi, what's wrong with you..."

Before he finished speaking, he had already leaned over, pressed her right hand against the cherry blossom tree behind him, leaned slightly, and then... kissed her.

Before she could speak, she was swallowed by his kiss.The moment Bai Qi pressed her against the tree, she froze in place.

She felt strange, but could not refuse.His breath melted into hers, and his softness touched hers, as if only his breath remained in the whole world.It was a very light and gentle breath, which was different from his usual feeling.

The early-blooming cherry blossoms are dazzling purple in the wind.After what seemed like a long time, Bai Qi suddenly let go of her, and his eyes seemed to regain clarity. "I……"

Mu Li lowered his head, looked at the cherry blossoms all over the ground, and didn't know what to say.

Bai Qi let go of her, took a step back as if blaming himself, and said in a low voice: "Just now I don't know why, but suddenly lost my mind... I'm sorry."

Listening to his almost flustered explanation, Mu Li sighed slowly.She probably knew what was going on. "Just pretend that what happened just now didn't happen, let's go."

"I'll walk you home."

"Ah."

She didn't mean to blame Bai Qi, and told him not to think too much when they parted.

She probably already knew.

What happened tonight should be blamed on the century-old cherry blossom tree.

An ancient poem once said, "There are no cherry blossoms in the world, and the heart of spring is always bright. Since I have this flower, I often feel the heart of spring."

Cherry blossoms are originally plants that can arouse love, not to mention, the tree in their school is said to be a very old species, which was transplanted from abroad a hundred years ago.

And since this cherry blossom tree came into being, one or two "spiritual events" always occur on campus every spring.Either a boy suddenly confessed his love to his beloved goddess, or a girl who was originally very shy suddenly pushed down the boy he had a crush on.This kind of thing happens every year, it's not uncommon, and everyone has gradually gotten used to it.

It's just that I didn't expect that such a strange thing that only appeared in rumors would actually happen to Bai Qi this year...

After arriving home, Mu Li sighed, turned off the lights, and covered his face in the quilt.

She was kissed by Bai Qi...

How should I face him when we meet again in the future?

Do you want to pretend that nothing happened?
