Chapter 56
The two of us walked slowly along the street, the moonlight casting a romantic glow over this Lantern Festival Night. Lu Weize protected me, making sure I walked on the inner side, and this small gesture filled me with an immense sense of security. When I glanced down, I caught a glimpse of a small box for earrings peeking out from Lu Weize's pants pocket, and a sweet anticipation stirred within me.
He bought earrings; they must be for me, I thought. However, when we reached the dormitory building, Lu Weize still showed no intention of giving me the earrings. I struggled internally, debating whether to speak up. In the end, I chose silence and urged him instead, "You should hurry back and get some sleep. Don't stay up late tonight."
Lu Weize nodded and gently said, "I'll watch you go in." I turned to leave, taking a few steps before I couldn't help but look back. Lu Weize remained where he was, his figure appearing particularly tall under the moonlight.
Our eyes met, and he waved at me, saying, "Go on; I'm watching you."
At that moment, the warmth and emotion in my heart were indescribable.
I walked back to him and threw myself into his arms, feeling his warmth and heartbeat. Lu Weize held me close and leaned down to kiss my forehead. "Be good; go back and sleep," he said. I tilted my face up to look at him and softly replied, "You should sleep early too." Lu Weize smiled playfully and asked, "Do you not want me to go?" Blushing, I nodded, feeling the sweetness inside me nearly overflowing.
Lu Weize held my face and kissed me deeply. I closed my eyes, immersing myself in this affectionate kiss. In this moment, I felt his love and care. I quietly slipped my hand into Lu Weize's pants pocket and felt the box. Lu Weize noticed my little action, released my lips, and asked with a smile, "Do you really want it?" I didn't answer; I just held the box tightly, expressing my desire through my actions.
Lu Weize chuckled softly, "Here you go." My eyes lit up as I pulled the box from his pocket, filled with joy. Under the moonlight, the earring sparkled gently, as if blessing our relationship. "You should head back now," Lu Weize said, ruffling my hair with a gaze full of affection.
I nodded and turned to leave, my steps light as if the whole world was filled with hope and happiness. Back in the dormitory, I carefully took out the earring and caressed its exquisite design, feeling sweet inside. Lu Weize giving me the earring meant he cared for me; this sentiment was more precious than any words.
I gently placed the earring by my pillow and lay down on the bed, replaying every detail of tonight in my mind. Every action and every word from Lu Weize made me feel loved and cherished. On this Lantern Festival Night, I not only received a special gift but also gained a sincere affection.
The night was deep, and I closed my eyes, drifting into a dream with a satisfied and happy smile. In my dream, I held hands with Lu Weize, walking under the moonlight towards our shared future.
Lu Weize returned to his dormitory, feeling both nervous and excited. The day of the citywide mock exam was approaching, and this exam not only affected his academic performance but also determined whether he could secure a spot for direct admission to university alongside me. He understood the importance of this opportunity, so he decided to use the evening to focus on his studies, ensuring he could achieve the best results.
Books were spread out on his desk, and Lu Weize's gaze wandered through the lines, his mind repeatedly cycling through various formulas and theories. However, his thoughts would inevitably drift away as he imagined me and Qiao Qiran in Beijing. Meanwhile, Qiao Qiran and I were in Beijing for our school entrance exams. As my friend, Qiao Qiran took on the responsibility of looking after me. He guided me through the bustling food streets until we finally stopped in front of a barbecue shop.
Just as we sat down, Lu Weize's message came through on WeChat, asking about our whereabouts. Qiao Qiran replied to Lu Weize's message, and soon Lu Weize's concern was conveyed through text, reminding Qiao Qiran to take care of my stomach. Qiao Qiran handed me his phone; I glanced at the screen and felt a bit defiant, snorting softly, "Why should I listen to him? I'm going to eat what I want." Qiao Qiran raised an eyebrow and smiled, deciding to indulge me just this once. The two of us ordered a large pile of skewers, enjoying them with gusto as laughter and conversation echoed through the lively night market.
Lu Weize felt a sense of restlessness as he sat at his desk at home. He imagined the scene of us enjoying delicious food outside and couldn't help but feel a bit envious. He asked about our return date through WeChat and took the initiative to offer to pick me up. I replied that I would be back tomorrow evening and informed him that Qiao Qiran would be seeing me off.
Lu Weize looked at the screen and let out a slight scoff, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He thought that Qiao Qiran could be too casual at times and not attentive enough, making him uneasy about leaving my care to him. He decided that, no matter what, he would personally come to pick me up to ensure my safe return to school.
On the night in Beijing, Qiao Qiran and I indulged in the deliciousness of grilled skewers, but I didn't forget Lu Weize's concern. I knew that no matter where I was, his heart was always with me. The next evening, we prepared to head back to school. Qiao Qiran accompanied me to the station, but I found that Lu Weize had already been waiting there, his eyes filled with anticipation and concern.
Lu Weize walked over, took my luggage, and softly said, "Welcome back." I looked at him, feeling a warm surge in my heart. No matter what the future held, having Lu Weize by my side made me feel incredibly safe and happy. The three of us set off on our way back to school together; under the moonlight, our shadows stretched long and intertwined, just like our youth—full of laughter and warmth.
Chapter 57
Finally, the day of the professional painting exam had arrived.
I stood by the quiet corridor of S University of Fine Arts, calling Lu Weize.
Lu Weize comforted me, "Don't be nervous, you will do well on the exam."
"When you're in the interview, just answer whatever the teacher asks. If you don't understand something, don't make up an answer; just honestly say you don't know."
"Lu Weize, I'm nervous," my voice trembled slightly.
Lu Weize reassured me for a while before I managed to calm down.
He placed more importance on my professional exam than on his own joint entrance exam.
On the morning of the joint entrance exam, he called me from outside the examination room.
"What are you doing?" Lu Weize asked.
"I'm still waiting for the exam," I replied.
"Okay, do your best."
"And you?"
"I'm getting ready for my exam too."
We encouraged each other for a few moments before hanging up.
Lu Weize entered the examination room and placed his phone on the podium.
...
The exam began.
Lu Weize received the exam paper and first filled in the ancient poetry recitation section.
After he finished, just as he was about to check his answers, he suddenly noticed a small piece of paper tucked away in the desk.
Frowning, Lu Weize pulled out the note and glanced at it; it was filled with must-know ancient poems for the college entrance examination.
He realized he had been set up.
The invigilating teacher noticed Lu Weize's actions and said sternly, "That student, what do you have in your hand?"
With no choice, Lu Weize could only place the note on the desk.
The female invigilator walked down from the podium and reached out, saying, "Open it."
Lu Weize spread his hands.
The female teacher picked up the note and glanced at it, her expression darkening. "Cheating on the college entrance examination? How bold!"
Lu Weize explained, "It's not mine."
"You're caught red-handed; do you still dare to argue?" The female teacher handed the note to another male teacher. They whispered to each other for a moment before marking something on Lu Weize's exam paper.
The male teacher took Lu Weize's admission ticket and went outside to make a phone call while the female teacher continued to supervise the classroom.
"Everyone, behave yourselves and don't try to cheat. Otherwise, this will be your fate!"
Lu Weize was called out by the academic director and taken to the academic office.
The homeroom teacher hurried over to inquire about Lu Weize's situation.
Lu Weize remained calm, saying, "I didn't cheat."
"If you didn't cheat, then how did this get into your hands?" the supervising teacher asked sternly.
The homeroom teacher replied, "There must be a misunderstanding. Lu Weize's grades are well-known throughout the school; he has no need to cheat."
"Student, cheating will result in disqualification of your scores. You'd better come clean," said the academic director.
Lu Weize maintained his composure: "I don't know who put it there."
The incident quickly exploded in the class group chat.
"Lu Weize cheated? No way!"
"Why not? Isn't there a guaranteed admission spot for this joint exam? He must be trying to grab that spot."
"Lu Weize usually has such good grades; he shouldn't need to cheat, right?"
"Hmph, that's the insidious part. With good grades normally and then scoring high on the exam, wouldn't that guarantee him the admission spot?"
"There's definitely a possibility of that..."
I finished the exam and came out to find Qiao Qiran waiting for me at the door.
He handed me a cup of milk tea and asked, "How did it go?"
I shook my head and replied, "Not so well."
Qiao Qiran ruffled my hair and said, "You're Lin Chu; nothing can defeat you."
I held the milk tea but still couldn't feel happy.
Qiao Qiran's phone rang; it was a call from Li Lu.
"What's up?" Qiao Qiran asked.
Li Lu's voice came through the phone, "Lu Weize got caught cheating. Did you know?"
Qiao Qiran hung up the phone and glanced at me.
No wonder you've been hanging your head since earlier; it's because of Lu Weize.
