Li Xiaolu received a WeChat message from Jijun, saying, "Open the door."
She thought it was a food delivery, so she walked to the door. "Wait a moment, I'll go open it for you."
When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Jijun.
Li Xiaolu exclaimed, "You're back!"
She immediately wrapped her arms around Jijun's neck.
She missed him so much.
Jijun held her in his arms and asked, "Did you miss me?"
Li Xiaolu nodded vigorously, "Yes!"
Jijun leaned down and kissed the corner of her lips, saying, "I have a surprise for you."
Li Xiaolu's eyes widened in excitement, "What surprise?"
Jijun replied, "It's a secret for now."
Li Xiaolu couldn't help but smile and said, "Still keeping it a secret?"
Jijun hugged her tightly, "I missed you so much."
Li Xiaolu's cheeks flushed, "Me too."
After a while, Li Xiaolu asked, "Have you taken care of everything at home?"
Jijun responded with a simple "Mm."
Li Xiaolu sighed in relief, "That's good."
Jijun looked at her and said, "I'm going back to China the day after tomorrow."
Li Xiaolu was taken aback, "Huh? You're going back again?"
Jijun chuckled at her adorable expression, "What's wrong? Are you going to miss me?"
Li Xiaolu bit her lip and asked, "How long will you be gone this time?"
Jijun thought for a moment and replied, "I won't be gone long."
Li Xiaolu was pleasantly surprised, "Really?"
Jijun nodded and asked, "Do you have any plans for the summer vacation?"
Li Xiaolu shook her head and replied, "I haven't thought about it yet."
Jijun smiled, "I'll take you out to have fun."
Li Xiaolu shyly lowered her head.
She really enjoyed being with Jijun.
No matter what they did, it felt sweet.
...
Two days later, Li Xiaolu received a WeChat message from Jijun: "Tomorrow is my birthday."
Li Xiaolu immediately replied, "I know! I've already prepared a gift!"
Jijun responded, "So soon?"
Li Xiaolu said mysteriously, "You'll find out then; it's a secret for now."
Jijun replied, "Okay, I'm looking forward to the surprise."
Li Xiaolu looked at her phone screen, feeling sweet inside.
She had already imagined Jijun's surprised expression when he received the gift.
...
The next day, around three in the afternoon, Li Xiaolu received a call from Jijun asking her to dress nicely because he was coming to pick her up for the birthday party.
Li Xiaolu was a bit surprised, "We're going to a birthday party?"
Jijun said, "Don't you want to go?"
Li Xiaolu smiled and replied, "No, I just didn't expect it."
Jijun chuckled, "Wait for me."
After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaolu happily hummed a song.
Half an hour later, Jijun arrived to pick her up.
He opened the car door and extended his hand to Li Xiaolu, saying, "Get in."
Li Xiaolu took his hand and got out of the car.
Jijun glanced at her outfit and asked, "Are you wearing this?"
Li Xiaolu looked down at her clothes and asked, "Is it not okay?"
Jijun smiled and replied, "It's fine."
He took Li Xiaolu's hand and said, "Let's go."
...
Jijun's birthday party was held at his villa.
Many people attended, dressed elegantly and mingling with each other.
Li Xiaolu didn't expect so many guests, and instinctively moved closer to Jijun.
Jijun seemed to notice her discomfort and tightened his grip on her hand. "It's okay, I'm here."
Li Xiaolu looked up and smiled at him.
At that moment, a few young men and women approached to greet Jijun.
"Hey, Jijun, who is this beautiful girl?"
Jijun glanced at them indifferently but did not respond.
The young people exchanged glances and laughed as they walked away.
Once they were out of earshot, Li Xiaolu quietly asked, "Who are they?"
"Friends," Jijun replied.
Li Xiaolu nodded and didn't say anything further.
She could tell that Jijun seemed to dislike those people.
After a while, someone called for Jijun.
Jijun patted Li Xiaolu on the shoulder and said, "Wait for me."
Li Xiaolu nodded.
After Jijun left, Li Xiaolu felt bored alone and decided to grab some snacks.
At that moment, she overheard a conversation nearby.
"Did you see? Jijun brought a girl with him."
"Yeah, she's quite pretty."
"She really is good-looking, but..."
"What do you mean?"
"I just think she's not suitable for Jijun."
"Why isn't she suitable?"
"Look at her, she obviously looks like a student. How could Jijun possibly like that type of girl?"
"That's true, Jijun changes girlfriends pretty quickly."
"Yeah, I don't think they will last long."
"I agree."
...
Li Xiaolu silently lowered her eyes.
She could tell that these people didn't think highly of her and Jijun. After all, the women around Jijun were always changing, while she was just an ordinary student.
But she and Jijun were truly in love.
She believed in Jijun.
Li Xiaolu took a deep breath, trying to push down those negative emotions.
She wouldn't let herself think too much.
A few minutes later, Jijun returned.
He glanced around and asked, "Why aren't you having fun?"
Li Xiaolu smiled, "I'm not really into this kind of occasion."
Jijun ruffled her hair and said, "Let's sit over there."
Li Xiaolu nodded.
The two of them sat down on the sofa, and Jijun went to get some drinks.
Li Xiaolu sat on the sofa playing with her phone.
After a while, the venue suddenly fell silent.
Li Xiaolu put away her phone and looked up.
