Qingyun's Love: Tiger Boy Falls in Love with a Pretty Lawyer

There was a rather naughty girl named Zhou Na, who had also transferred from out of town. She dressed like a doll all day long and had a rather aggressive temper, arguing with one and fighting with another.

Once, she annoyed a boy and he pulled her chair away from behind, causing her to sit on the ground with her buttocks squatting.

This behavior was definitely wrong, but fortunately she was prepared and didn't fall hard. She still pretended to wipe her eyes and cheeks with her hands, looking very aggrieved.

Everyone knew she loved to mess around with that boy. Her grievances were evident, but there was also a hint of coquettishness about her. It was just enough to make people want to laugh.

This boy who transferred from another place didn't pamper her, and even called her shameless and cruel. Everyone thought he was too unkind to women.

Ran Mo also felt a little sympathy for Zhou Na. She probably felt too lonely inside that’s why she was the one who started to quarrel with boys.

She had previously had a good impression of Zhou Na, thinking she had no other flaws besides being a bit of a tantrum. She even compared it to the knowledge they'd learned in chemistry class that metallic sodium would explode when placed in water, and teased her that the "Na" would also explode if placed in water. This amused her and made her giggle.

She discovered that Zhou Na's peculiarity was that she was always happy when someone paid attention to her and valued her, and she wouldn't mind even if someone said something out of line or did something unreliable. She wondered if this was also related to her family environment.

She had been getting along well with Zhou Na, but one of her actions touched Ran Mo's sore spot.

This greedy girl may have had some bad thoughts about her classmate with good manners, so she found a reason to ask the teacher to change her seat to next to the boy, that is, to move Ran Mo away.

What a boast! With so many boys in the class, who could you possibly have bad intentions towards? Why did you choose to separate her from her only close friend? Is that what a human being would do? Yet, the teacher listened to her slander and agreed.

Ranmo was furious. When the seats were changed that day, she, usually silent, erupted. She threw a tantrum, rattling and even toppling over the desks and chairs, and in a fit of rage, she even threw her schoolbag out of the classroom.

Some people might not understand why they would make such a fuss about just changing seats. Little do they know that for a student like Ranmo, who usually doesn't socialize, using the opportunity of sitting at the same table to talk to others and even become friends is her only way out.

If they didn't sit at the same table, they would basically cut off the channel for conversation and communication. This was her tragedy.

If they were to interact normally like other students, doing activities, taking walks, chatting after class, there would be plenty of time to spend together, but she blocked the way. Who can be blamed for this?

She had tolerated it the previous time when Hara Takeki changed seats. But this time, she didn't want to sit there and wait for death. She didn't ask for much at all. She just wanted a companion with whom she could talk a little more, and if there was a little care and concern among peers, she would be very satisfied.

But why couldn't he even give her this tiny emotional need? This kind of emotion was truly pure. She had no other thoughts.

Witnessing her outrage, the chubby head teacher, unusually angry, lost his temper. He didn't say anything at the time, but then turned around and threatened to hold a class meeting to criticize her. She was disheartened and dejected. Whatever happened, she thought.

Fortunately, after hearing about this, the head teacher felt that it was justifiable and was also worried that it would affect the learning enthusiasm of a top student like her, so he rejected the motion. This saved her from being too embarrassed.

But her heart was truly broken. She had already lost her only friend.

After this incident, her deskmate seemed to have retreated a bit. Ran Mo was heartbroken, but he remained calm. For a moment, he even seemed to avoid her, perhaps wondering if she was really as unnatural as the rumors said.

"Okay, I won't cause you any trouble." Ran Mo's heart was broken. The friendship had just begun, and it was already over.

This was the biggest act of rebellion, a mad act, that this usually docile and obedient child had ever committed during her school days. As she wrote in her essay describing herself: You are crazy, you are sentimental, and you are still holy!

She'd always tolerated whatever people had said and done to her before. But this time was different. She was in the rebellious phase of adolescence. She couldn't just let it go.

This was the first major crisis she had ever faced in her life, and it nearly cost her her life.

On a cold night, she changed into black clothes, took a reluctant look at her mother who was silently working at home, then walked out of the town calmly and came to the deserted railway.

She was truly despairing. She had already decided to take this path. She just hadn't figured out how to do it. After a moment's deliberation, she decided to play a game of racing against a train.

In the pitch-black night, she jumped onto the rails, stepped on the sleepers, and ran towards the train flashing brightly in the distance. At the same time, she set the "rules of the game" for herself - if the train had not arrived before she counted to the 27th sleeper, she would jump off the tracks; if it hit her before she finished counting, then she would leave it to fate...

Perhaps God had mercy on her, and she jumped off the tracks at the last moment and escaped from danger.

At that moment, she felt like she had an epiphany and was reborn. She decided to be reborn as a new person.

She would never forget that inky cold night. A young man, like a wandering spirit, stood by the railway tracks as the train rumbled by. What a painful and helpless situation it was.

The madness and sadness of that time were largely due to the circumstances surrounding her, and the lack of outlet and channeling for her chaotic emotions was also a major problem. As the song "White Moonlight" says, everyone has a sadness in their heart. Her sadness and depression lingered until the end of her youth.

She finally understood and made up her mind. She had to leave this place! She had endured for more than ten years and couldn't stand still like this any longer. She had to leave! No one could stop her!

She then pressured her family to go to the provincial capital to ask relatives for help in transferring her to a higher school, which they managed. Due to her excellent academic performance, she was transferred to a key middle school and, on the preliminary Gaokao exam, placed first in the liberal arts class, nearly earning admission to Peking University. You just have to push yourself.

In general, adolescence was more depressing than joyful for her. Although she had sporadic good memories, she could only chew and savor those few bits and pieces over and over again.

At that time, I began to have some opinions and aspirations about ideals, life, and love.

During evening study, she sat in the dimly lit classroom, staring blankly at the old blackboard, podium, chalk stubs, and dust before her. Suddenly, she thought, years from now, what would her thoughts and feelings be like if she recalled this scene? What would she be like then?

She recalled a time when she was riding a green train and several young men sitting next to her were playing a poker fortune-telling game. They predicted that a shy young man would not be able to find a partner. Everyone burst into laughter, and the young man was a little embarrassed.

Ranmo thought, he's quite good-looking, how could he not find a partner? She also had a strange thought, would she encounter such a dilemma in the future? Would she always be so lonely?
