After the school term started, He Wenjie successfully skipped a grade to the first semester of the fifth grade, while Ma Siyi took the seat He Wenjie had previously occupied. Driven by yearning for her mother, Ma Siyi found a phone booth on the very first day of school and used the phone card He Wenjie had given her to call her mother for comfort. Taking advantage of the time she spent on the phone, He Wenjie ran to a small grocery store to buy a bottle of soda, drinking it while waiting for Ma Siyi.
By the time He Wenjie finished his bottle of soda, he saw Ma Siyi walking over, crying like a little kitten. "Sob, sob, sob, my mom is pregnant with a little baby brother, and she doesn't want me anymore."
Seeing the doll-like Ma Siyi crying with pear blossoms drenched in rain, He Wenjie couldn't bear it at all. He hurriedly used his own sleeve to wipe away her tears. The harder He Wenjie wiped, the harder Ma Siyi cried. Reaching the height of her heartbreak, Ma Siyi hugged He Wenjie, smearing all her tears and snot directly onto his clothes. This scene happened to be seen by a boy in their class. "Oho, isn't this the genius He Wenjie who skipped to the fifth grade? How come you're all hugged up with a girl from our class? I'm going to tell the teacher."
