When Lin Wan woke up, she found herself wrapped in a warm and broad embrace. Even though the two were pressed closely together, Chen Wu was already fast asleep, while Lin Wan felt wide awake. Last night, she had seen that basketball in the study again. The initials CW were on it, which stood for Chen Wu. And LY... 0
 
Suddenly, Lin Wan recalled Chen Wu's drunken words from the night before—"I liked you in high school." Along with that, he had brought an old composition book, which contained a school newspaper featuring an unexpected photo of the two of them together. In the past, Lin Wan had always thought these were mere coincidences. But now, she suddenly felt that perhaps everything was not so simple. 0
 
Lin Wan turned over and tightly hugged Chen Wu, her emotions complicated. 0
 
... 0
 
The next morning, when Chen Wu woke up, Lin Wan was sitting on the bed looking at the composition book. 0
 
"What are you looking at?" he asked groggily. 0
 
"I'm looking at my high school composition book," Lin Wan replied with a smile. 0
 
"Oh," Chen Wu responded, "What made you suddenly want to look at this?" 0
 
"Curiosity," Lin Wan said as she bit her lip. "Why do you have this book?" 0
 
Chen Wu thought for a moment and said, "I liked Chinese literature and enjoyed writing compositions." 0
 
"Really?" Lin Wan was somewhat surprised. 0
 
"Yeah," Chen Wu nodded. "I remember my composition grades were always pretty good." 0
 
"Is that so?" Lin Wan questioned skeptically. "I don't recall that." 0
 
 
"Because you never paid attention to me." Chen Wu's tone was calm. 0
Lin Wan: "..." 0
She found herself unable to refute him. 0
She lowered her head and continued to look at the composition book. 0
As she looked, her gaze fell on the school newspaper. 0
This newspaper contained the only photo of her and Chen Wu together. 0
In the picture, the two stood side by side, wearing faint smiles. 0
Lin Wan looked at the photo, unable to suppress a smile. 0
Chen Wu came out after showering and saw Lin Wan still looking at the composition book. 0
He walked over and sat down beside her, glancing casually at it. 0
"Why are you suddenly looking at this?" he asked. 0
"It's nice," Lin Wan smiled and pointed at the photo in the newspaper, "This is our first photo together from high school." 0
Chen Wu glanced at the newspaper, his eyes flickering slightly. 0
He remembered this newspaper. 0
At that time, he and Lin Wan were not familiar; he had only occasionally heard her name. 0
That day, after playing basketball, he passed by the bulletin board and saw a newspaper posted there, surrounded by many classmates. 0
Curious, he leaned in to take a look and found a photo of their class on it. 0
In the picture, Lin Wan stood in the corner but still caught his attention. 0
He thought to himself that this girl was really beautiful. 0
Later, he often went back to look at that newspaper and even secretly tore it down to keep it. 0
He never expected to see it again now. 0
"Do you remember this newspaper?" Lin Wan suddenly asked. 0
Chen Wu came back to his senses and smiled: "I remember." 0
 
 
"I remember too," Lin Wan said with a smile. "Back then, our school would post the photos of the top fifty students after every exam to encourage everyone to study." 0
 
"Yeah," Chen Wu nodded. "I remember you were always first." 0
 
"That's right," Lin Wan nodded. "I always thought it would be nice if I could just once come in second." 0
 
Chen Wu couldn't help but chuckle, "Why's that?" 0
 
"Because I wanted to see if the teacher would be disappointed in me if I wasn't first," Lin Wan replied. 0
 
"You're silly," Chen Wu ruffled her hair. "No matter what place you come in, no one would be disappointed in you." 0
 
Lin Wan smiled but didn't say anything. She knew that well enough. It was just that she had been too sensitive back then. 0
 
"What about you?" Lin Wan suddenly remembered something. "I recall you seemed to always be at the bottom of the list." 0
 
Chen Wu cleared his throat, "I did that on purpose." 0
 
"Why?" Lin Wan asked, puzzled. 0
 
"Because..." Chen Wu paused, "I didn't want to study." 0
 
Lin Wan was left speechless. 0
 
"But I regretted it later," Chen Wu said. 0
 
"Why?" Lin Wan asked. 0
 
"Because my mom forced me to study," Chen Wu replied helplessly. "If I didn't study hard, she wouldn't let me play basketball." 0
 
Lin Wan suddenly understood, "So you studied hard and ended up getting into Tsinghua?" 0
 
"Sort of," Chen Wu nodded. 0
 
"You're really impressive," Lin Wan admired. 0
 
"It's nothing much," Chen Wu said modestly. 0
 
As they chatted, time flew by. 0
