Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

The sun hadn't set yet at this time, and the light was excellent. After Xu Su pushed him away, she could even see the boy's reaction at a glance.

Xu Su suddenly looked away, feeling a bit unwell!

Wasn't she having a pure campus romance?

What's going on here?!

Xi Zirong didn't seem shy at all, and he concealed the lust in his eyes very well. He smiled and said, "It would be abnormal if I didn't react. Have you forgotten? I've been an adult for a long time."

Reaching out to stroke the girl's blushing ears, Xi Zirong spoke softly, "I've always wanted you to know how much I want you, Xu Su. Don't treat me like a child, I'm your boyfriend."

How could he tell her that in those endless, youthful dreams, her image would always appear, and how he could subdue her without any restraint?

I'm your boyfriend...

Xu Su, who has lived a total of thirty-two years in her past and present lives, is only now realizing what the word "boyfriend" truly means.

She had always thought of Xi Zirong as that boy who would blush easily when teased, but she never imagined that he was thinking about...

Xu Su reached out and snatched her ear back, covering it as she sat on a rock, looking utterly dejected: "Xi Zirong, don't be like this, we're still young."

"Hmm..." He also half-squatted down, pulled her into his arms, and gently coaxed, "I didn't mean anything, I just like you so much."

He asked casually, "Su Su, what did you do with him at noon?"

Xu Su froze, instantly recalling the photos on Zhou Mochen's phone and his outrageous remarks.

Her face was cupped in his hands, and Xi Zirong looked directly into her eyes. "Tell me, what did you do when you went out at noon?"

"..." Xu Su felt guilty and annoyed. Why did everyone like to pressure her like this!

Zhou Mochen is like this, and so is Xi Zirong.

Despite her seemingly calm and unassuming nature, Xu Su was surprisingly possessive, which gave her a real headache.

Seeing the girl frown and remain silent, Xi Zirong's expression turned deep. "Has he kissed you? Xu Su, have you let him kiss you?"

Xu Su glared at him, and seeing his expression, she instinctively retorted, "No, no! Xi Zirong, don't be like this!"

He stared at her for a long time, and after a while his brows relaxed. He lowered his head and kissed her, his tone returning to its usual aggrieved state: "Don't see him again, Su Su. Don't you have me? Why do you have to go out and see other men?"

Xu Su took a deep breath, feeling pressure from Xi Zirong for the first time.

The boy was changing at an astonishing speed. Xu Su felt her head start to hurt again. She tried to explain, "Didn't I say before that I planned to talk to him clearly after the college entrance exam? Xi Zirong, please don't do what you did just now. I'm a little scared."

He was taken aback, then chuckled softly: "What? If I asked you to treat me like a man, would you be afraid of me?"

Before Xu Su could speak, he pressed himself against her again, pulling her into his arms.

His voice was very soft: "Don't be afraid, I was just too jealous. Just thinking about you meeting other men alone, and maybe even being hugged and kissed by them, Xu Su, makes me feel so bad."

Xu Su's heart tightened, and she instinctively hugged him. "No, no, he didn't hug me at noon, Xi Zirong, don't be in pain."

"Mmm." Xi Zirong kissed the top of her head, feeling very comfortable with her words: "It doesn't hurt anymore. If you keep your distance from all men in the future, I won't feel pain. I'm very petty, so don't let anyone else get close to you."

"..." Xu Su didn't speak; this request was truly outrageous.

Don't let anyone else get close...

She doesn't live in a vacuum; how could she possibly keep others away?

Xu Su comforted herself, thinking that it was normal for Xi Zirong to be a little possessive, perhaps because it was her first relationship.

As he gets older, he'll probably become more normal... right?

This trip to the woods resulted in Xu Su getting several large mosquito bites on her arms.

There are mosquitoes in the school, but they are not as venomous as those in the mountains and forests.

As soon as evening self-study began, Xu Su couldn't help but start scratching. Xi Zirong, who was next to her, noticed something was wrong and followed her hand to see several large bumps on the girl's arm.

Xu Su has fair skin, and even though she wears short sleeves every day, the skin on her arms hasn't tanned much. The large, red, swollen bumps look particularly alarming. Xi Zirong grabbed her hand that was scratching the itch and asked anxiously, "What happened?"

Xu Su waved his hand away and said irritably, "It's all your fault! I told you I'm afraid of mosquitoes, and I called out to you the whole way, but you ignored me and insisted on dragging me to the woods!"

Her voice wasn't quiet, and the students at the desks in front and behind her all looked up sharply, their eyes sparkling.

Xu Su: "......"

She finally realized what she had said, and her face gradually turned red.

Xi Zirong tapped the desk with her hand and said to the students around her, "Focus on your homework."

Look at how calm and collected they are, not embarrassed at all that their classmates know they went on a date in the woods.

Xu Su even suspected that he wanted nothing more than to announce it to the whole world, letting all the teachers and students in the school know that she was his girlfriend...

Although, by now almost everyone knows that...

Xu Su was still lost in thought, but Xi Zirong frowned, his eyes filled with self-reproach. "I'll go buy you medicine."

He got up and walked straight out of the classroom, ignoring that class was in progress.

Xu Su, who didn't have time to stop him: "..."

Is it really that urgent? You can definitely wait until after evening self-study to buy it.

Then the tingling sensation on her arm seemed to answer her question.

urgent..

Xi Zirong was gone for more than half an hour before she came back. She had bought three tubes of ointment and even tried to apply it to her.

Xu Su refused, saying, "I can do it myself."

With so many classmates in the class, how could she possibly let Xi Zirong apply the medicine for her?

Even an arm won't do!

Xu Su insisted on doing it herself, and Xi Zirong didn't force her, but looked at the big bag on her arm with a dark face.

Even after Xu Su finished applying the medicine, she noticed that the man was still staring at her. She was speechless: "It's just a few mosquito bites, it's nothing serious, don't be like this."

She could tell that Xi Zirong was distressed about her arm that had been scalded by mosquitoes, and was also very remorseful for insisting on dragging her to the grove of trees despite her words.

"I'm sorry, we'll never go to that awful place again." Xi Zirong's words were filled with disgust for that forest. He asked, "Will this ointment work?"

He bought three kinds of ointment, one of which was the one Xu Su had used since childhood. She nodded: "I've always been a mosquito magnet since I was little. My grandma used this ointment on me, and it was very effective. The bumps would disappear by tomorrow at most."

Xu Su comforted him, "These mosquito bites look scary, but they'll actually heal quickly after you apply the medicine."
