The autumn sky is exceptionally clear, the bright sunshine fills every corner, and the gentle wind blows through the brilliant light. The leaves on the maple trees fall silently from the branches, embellishing the campus into a dynamic ink painting.
Lin Lanzhi walked alone on the tree-lined avenue in silence. She felt extremely upset when she thought about her bad relationship with her relatives and her bad relationship with an ordinary person. Just as she was walking forward absent-mindedly, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her. She was about to bump into him, so she stopped in a hurry and looked up in astonishment.
Standing in front of her was Ye Zilang. Compared to her astonishment, he seemed much more at ease.
"Lanzhi."
He called her softly, with a gentle smile on his face, and his dark eyes flashing with tiny lights, like stars twinkling in the night .
Lin Lanzhi was slightly startled, and immediately recalled what happened yesterday - she had stood him up.
Self-blame and panic instantly surged into her heart. She looked embarrassed and evasive as she said, "I'm really sorry for yesterday. I, I didn't mean it..."
As she finished speaking, her face turned even redder, like a crimson cloud, and her heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
At this moment, she was like a child who felt guilty about having done something wrong.
"You suddenly disappeared , and I was worried for a long time. But now that I see you are okay, I feel relieved." A smile appeared on Ye Zilang's face, like a spring breeze that melted the ice and snow.
Lin Lanzhi felt even more guilty. She apologized again and again in a low voice: "I'm so sorry for making you worry..."
"Can you please stop being like that? It's as if you owe me a big favor." Ye Zilang smiled helplessly, "It's just a meal, you can just treat me next time."
"Okay, I'll definitely treat you!" Lin Lanzhi agreed immediately, but after a few seconds, she seemed to remember something and continued, "But I'll decide where to eat, okay?"
Ye Zilang had an unconcealed gentle smile in his eyes and said, "Of course you can."
Lin Lanzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him and asked, "Then when are you free?"
"Tonight is fine." Ye Zilang answered straightforwardly.
Lin Lanzhi was stunned for a moment, then she pursed her lips and smiled, nodded and said, "Then let's do it tonight!"
That day, Lin Lanzhi was a little uneasy. When she was taking notes in class or reading after class, a figure kept appearing in her mind, causing her to be absent-minded no matter what she was doing.
She wanted to get him out of her heart, but also wanted him to appear in front of her. Even if she had to be shameless, she wanted to get an autograph for her brother.
At least this would give her some peace and quiet at home.
But Mu Chuwei didn't show up the whole morning. As time went by, she became more and more anxious.
Three days, such a short deadline, one day will be over soon. If she still doesn't get Mu Chuwei's signature within these three days, she believes that if her brother does not perform well in the exam, her mother will definitely put all the blame on her.
Thinking of this, a feeling of bitterness spread .
The sun shone silently through the window, and she subconsciously reached out her hand and gently held a ray of sunlight. Just as she was secretly sad, a familiar figure suddenly came into her sight, and she looked at it in surprise.
That figure shrouded in sunlight is as beautiful as a prince, who else could it be other than Mu Chuwei?
She was delighted and stood up from her seat immediately. But just as she took a step, the female classmates in the classroom swarmed over and surrounded him in three layers.
Seeing this, she knew it was hopeless for her to get an autograph.
The female classmates were very enthusiastic towards Mu Chuwei. Some sent desserts, some sent flowers, and some sent dolls... Mu Chuwei would take them one by one and hand them to the bodyguard behind him. Occasionally, when he took a drink from a girl, he would take a sip and express his gratitude with a charming smile.
Lin Lanzhi stood there in a daze, and suddenly her ears echoed with his words from yesterday: "I was just impulsive..."
How could she be special to him? She was just something new to him when he was bored, and they were from two different worlds, weren't they?
Because of Mu Chuwei's appearance, the classroom became particularly crowded and lively. Fortunately, the class time was coming soon. Although some students from other classes were reluctant to leave, they still had to leave. Of course, there were also some people who didn't want to leave, so they stayed to attend the class together. Therefore, every time Mu Chuwei was in the class, the seats were always full.
Lin Lanzhi sat in her seat, trying to concentrate on the class, but her eyes always fell on him inadvertently.
Normally, he would look at the podium and listen to the teacher's lecture, occasionally whispering a few words to the students next to him, but he never looked at her.
To him, she was almost like a stranger.
Her mood became even more depressed, and time seemed to pass very slowly, as if a century had passed. When the bell rang, she immediately turned her head to look at Mu Chuwei.
But before she could take any action, he was surrounded by girls, and they followed him wherever he went.
She finally plucked up the courage to stand up, holding a notebook and following the crowd for a distance, but she could only see his back and could not get close to him.
He is like the brightest star in the night sky, so bright, yet out of reach.
Knowing that it would be a waste of effort to chase him, she stopped, turned around and walked towards the corridor next to her, thinking about how to get his autograph.
In public, he was always surrounded by people. Perhaps she could only get close to him at home. She had already been to his house once, but...
Thinking of this, she shuddered immediately.
"Isn't this the same as offering myself to him? I'm sure he will laugh at me!" She muttered to herself, and raised her hand to knock her head in annoyance. At that moment, her raised hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.
She turned her head in panic, only to see Mu Chuwei blinking at her mysteriously. Before she could react, he pulled her to a secluded corner.
Mu Chuwei held her in his arms, leaning his arms against the wall, with a look of displeasure on his handsome face.
"Lin Lanzhi, are you deliberately ignoring my existence to make me angry?"
"What?" Lin Lanzhi forgot to struggle and looked at him in confusion.
"Before class, I called you from the classroom window, but you ignored me. However, you kept peeking at me during class and followed me after class. When I tried to get away and chased after me, you ignored me again when I called you." Mu Chuwei stared at her steadily, "What do you mean? You don't really want to play hard to get with me, do you?"
Lin Lanzhi was slightly startled.
In fact, she was not ignoring him, but she couldn't hear him. But how could she explain it to him?
She looked at him calmly and said calmly, "I think you are the one who is playing hard to get. Since you know I am looking at you, why do you pretend not to see me?"
Mu Chuwei couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm just giving you a tooth for a tooth. I'm learning from you!"
“You…” Lin Lanzhi looked at him speechlessly, and finally sighed and whispered, “I’m not ignoring you, I just didn’t hear you.”
Mu Chuwei asked in surprise: " Can't hear it? I almost yelled at you, how could you not hear it?"
Lin Lanzhi suddenly got angry, her face flushed unnaturally, and she replied angrily: "I just can't hear you! Believe it or not, let me go!"
Mu Chuwei was stunned for a moment, not expecting her to suddenly become excited. After a moment of stunned silence, he curled the corners of his lips, reached out his hand and gently scratched the tip of her nose, and said, "Okay, if you didn't hear it, then don't be angry. Although you look cute when you're angry, I like you better when you're not angry."
"Who wants to please you!" Lin Lanzhi glared at him fiercely and avoided his hand.
Mu Chuwei didn't take it seriously. He looked at her and asked, "Why were you following me just now? Did you want to date me? I happen to be free tonight."
After hearing his question, Lin Lanzhi finally remembered the autograph. After hesitating for a few seconds, she said nervously, "But I have an appointment tonight..."
Mu Chuwei was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected her to answer like this. He concealed his disappointment and said lightly, "Oh, so that's it."
Lin Lanzhi looked at him and asked cautiously, "Well, can you give me an autograph?"
As if he hadn't expected that she would ask for his autograph, Mu Chuwei was stunned for a moment, then his eyes sparkled with stars, and he looked very interested: "You want an autograph? Sure, but what do you plan to give in exchange?"
Lin Lanzhi hesitated for a moment, frowned slightly and asked, "What do you want?"
"What do you think?" The slightly rising ending tone contains countless possibilities for imagination, which arouses people's reverie.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Mu Chuwei stretched out a finger and gently stroked her cheek, then slid along her cheek to her lips, and a hint of ambiguity quietly arose in the air.
Lin Lanzhi's face suddenly turned red. She waved his hand away, stared at him with shame and anger, and said, "Don't do this! I don't like this kind of joke!"
Mu Chuwei raised his eyebrows, seeming a little puzzled: "Then tell me, why do you want my autograph? Isn't it because you like me?"
Lin Lanzhi glared at him and said truthfully: "My brother likes you very much, and he really wants your autograph."
Mu Chuwei's face turned pale, and the light in his eyes instantly went out. He stared at her deeply and asked, "What did you say?"
Lin Lanzhi didn't seem to notice his strangeness. She just took a breath and explained, "My brother likes you very much. He said that as long as I get your autograph, he will do well in the exam this time. My mother also hopes that I can help him realize this wish, otherwise I wouldn't bother you."
At the end of her speech, her eyes dimmed, and even her voice was faintly disappointed.
"Trouble?" Mu Chuwei glared at her, his eyes filled with complicated emotions. After a moment, he suddenly laughed softly, his laughter filled with a hint of mockery, "I see...it seems I was being too sentimental again."
Lin Lanzhi frowned, as if she didn't understand what he meant for a moment.
"Since your brother wants my autograph, I'll give it to you!" Mu Chuwei snatched the notebook from her hand, then took out the pen he carried with him, signed a sloppy signature as quickly as possible, and then stuffed the notebook back into her hand.
Lin Lanzhi looked at the notebook in her hand with his signature on it and was stunned for a moment.
At the same time, Mu Chuwei clenched the pen in his hand, looked at her deeply, and asked, "Are you satisfied?" However, he seemed not to need to know the answer. As soon as he finished speaking , he turned and left.
Lin Lanzhi looked at his hurriedly leaving back, feeling a little dazed and confused. Why did his departing back give her a feeling of sadness and loneliness at this moment?
Didn't she just ask him for an autograph?
Unconsciously, Mu Chuwei found himself on the rooftop of the teaching building. The autumn wind blew in his face, but he couldn't get rid of the sense of loss in his heart.
Just because a girl didn't really want his autograph, he was so sad, as if the trophy he had worked so hard to get was accidentally broken into pieces, and he felt extremely depressed.
No, he couldn't do this! He was the big star Mu Chuwei. What kind of girls had he not seen in the entertainment industry? There were many who were prettier and gentler than her. If his mood was so easily affected by others, then wouldn't he have spent the past two years in the entertainment industry in vain?
But……
He has known so many people since he was a child and has seen so many beautiful and charming girls in the entertainment industry, but no girl can attract him like she does. Is this the so-called destined disaster?
He sighed, walked slowly towards the edge of the rooftop, and the scene of his first meeting with her became clearer and clearer.
Her slender back was oblivious to herself, and her eyes were confused or terrified...
Walking to the edge of the rooftop, you can see the entire campus.
At this moment, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. Not many people knew his number, and the only one who would call him at this time was Ye Zilang.
He took out his phone and glanced at the name on the screen. He answered the call without hesitation and asked in a normal tone, "Mr. Ye, what can I do for you?"
"It's not your job, but I have cancelled all your announcements for tonight. You can relax tonight."
"Okay, then let's go out and relax together."
"Well..." Ye Zilang said with some embarrassment, "Not tonight, I already have an appointment."
"Your agent, who has always been fair and selfless, cancelled all my announcements tonight for his own selfish interests?" Mu Chuwei suddenly felt like he was being tricked.
"Chu Wei, I'm really sorry ..." Ye Zilang's voice was slightly apologetic, "But tonight there are indeed some unimportant small announcements. I thought about it again and again before canceling them. It's not entirely for myself."
"Okay!" Mu Chuwei finally couldn't help laughing, "I can't thank you enough for giving me a night off."
While he was talking on the phone, he glanced casually downstairs. It was just a casual glance, but he found Ye Zilang among the crowd coming and going.
He looked at the figure with a hint of smile in his eyes, and then asked calmly, "But I'm very curious, what date do you have tonight? Are you going on a date with some beautiful daughter?"
"Guess." Ye Ziran smiled slightly.
"Still playing mystery with me!"
When Mu Chuwei was about to continue joking with him, another familiar figure came into his sight.
A strange light flashed quickly across his eyes.
He recalled that not long ago, Lin Lanzhi also said to him, "But I have an appointment tonight." Could it be that she was the one who had an appointment with Zilang?
His mood suddenly became complicated. He stared at them closely, only to see her walk straight to Ye Ziran, and the two of them smiled at each other tacitly.
For a moment, Mu Chuwei felt that his heart seemed to have stopped beating.
At this moment, Ye Zilang's voice came from the phone: "Chu Wei, I won't talk to you for now, the friend I met is here."
Before he could answer, Ye Ziran hung up the phone.
Mu Chuwei held the phone stiffly, staring blankly at the two figures downstairs walking shoulder to shoulder towards the school gate.
His eyes followed them until their figures disappeared in the shadows of the trees .
When did the two of them become close? Were they close enough to date?
A breeze blew gently, and his chest seemed to be pressed down by something, and he felt suffocated.
He secretly clenched his fists, a dark and cold light flashed in his eyes, and displeasure appeared on his face.
