Recently, the weather has turned cooler, and the Wutong Tree at Nanhua High School has turned a brilliant shade of yellow. A gentle breeze swept through, and the falling leaves painted the ground with the first touch of autumn's gold. Suddenly, the sharp sound of the school bell rang out, startling a group of swallows that had been resting on the branches as they prepared for their migration south. With a few lonely chirps from stragglers, the branches shook slightly before returning to calm.
Today, the school was hosting a large educational campaign themed "Against Campus Violence," so several key members of the student council had been busy setting everything up on the playground early in the morning, hanging banners and preparing to share the significance of "Against Campus Violence" with passing students.
Although Zhu Hui had no ties to the student council anymore, she always actively participated in their activities whenever they organized something. She was often the first to be educated by these events. After signing her name on the banner, she put down her pen and let out a big sigh, expressing her determination to firmly uphold justice on campus.
"Zhu Hui, good morning!" A powerful, masculine voice suddenly rang out behind her.
She turned around to see Yang Qianfan standing tall in front of her, dressed in a brand-new autumn school uniform. Just then, she heard exaggerated laughter from Jiang Xi and a few others nearby.
"You must have taken some strange medicine; why are you wearing a school uniform today?" Zhu Hui said, rolling her eyes curiously as she looked him up and down. Unable to hold back, she burst into exaggerated laughter along with Jiang Xi and the others.
"Wearing a school uniform? Have you taken some strange medicine?" Yang Qianfan replied with mock anger, trying to suppress his smile.
"Forget it; I won't argue with you. Honestly, I've never seen you in a school uniform before today. It's quite hard to accept—it's just too ridiculous."
Feeling embarrassed by their collective teasing, Yang Qianfan furrowed his brows and glared at them, pointing and shouting loudly, "No laughing! Did you hear me?"
"Alright, we won't laugh at you anymore." Zhu Hui covered her mouth to stifle her giggles and managed to compose herself. She pulled him toward the banner and said, "Sign your name here, and we won't laugh at you."
"Why should I sign?"
“Because as long as you sign your name up there, this event will be considered a success by half!”
“What do you mean?”
“You think the school’s bully will guarantee not to bully anyone anymore? How can the school be peaceful then?” Zhu Hui explained patiently, taking her time.
“What? Are you saying I’m the bully?” Yang Qianfan jumped up in anger at her explanation, shouting at her fiercely.
“Look at you, in this state, it seems like you want to bully someone again,” Zhu Hui shook her head dismissively and sighed.
“You…” Yang Qianfan’s face turned pale with anger, but he held back his frustration and decided not to argue with her. He picked up the pen and fulfilled her request, signing his name on the banner with great vigor.
Seeing his bold signature of “Yang Qianfan” on the banner, Zhu Hui nodded in satisfaction and teased, “Not bad, the lost Male Goat has finally found his way home.”
Yang Qianfan seemed used to her provocations and didn’t bother to retort. His face flushed as he lowered his head and said softly, “Zhu Hui, I won’t call you Dwarf Winter Melon anymore.”
“W-Why not?” Zhu Hui was taken aback by his words.
“Because Wang Yuhan told me not to call you Dwarf Winter Melon anymore.”
“You and Wang Yuhan are back together?” Zhu Hui’s eyes widened in excitement as she asked.
Yang Qianfan smiled and nodded at her.
"It seems this is the best news I've heard today!" Zhu Hui grinned widely, her happiness radiating as she smiled back at him.
Seeing her smile, Yang Qianfan felt a rush of warmth, causing his face to flush even more. He stretched out his hand and pointed to the school uniform he was wearing. "Isn't it a coincidence that we're both in school uniforms today?" He quickly lowered his head, feeling awkward, and let out a silly laugh, adding, "If someone sees us, they might think we're wearing couple outfits at school!"
"C-couple outfits?" Zhu Hui stared at him in disbelief, looking somewhat faint. "It seems you've really lost your mind today to say something like that."
