Chapter 36

This was the second time Zhang Chenxi and Ji Mingyue walked along this road together. The sun hung high overhead, and Ji Mingyue reached up to pull the hood of her sun-protection jacket over her head in an attempt to block the blazing glare. With the movement, the long hair that had been cascading down her back shifted entirely to the front, draping over both shoulders and giving her a touch of added cuteness and playfulness. Zhang Chenxi, on the other hand, didn't mind the heat, though his mouth felt dry as dust. The milk tea Ji Mingyue had given him was already finished before they even reached the school gate, and the more he drank, the thirstier he had become. Looking around, he unexpectedly spotted a food truck displaying fresh fruit bowls.
