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

Today, the three of them splurged and ordered one of each of the dishes they'd grown fond of eating at the cafeteria over the years.

Huang Feng took a bite of a beef patty, tears welling in her eyes: "I've officially decided to apply to C University in Beijing to study journalism and communication. I want to be a reporter, specializing in news interviews and writing articles."

They had discussed this topic countless times, so Xu Su wasn't surprised at all. She took out a tissue and handed it to him, saying, "Isn't this fine? Don't cry."

"What are your plans for summer vacation?" Huang Feng took the tissue and wiped away her tears haphazardly. "My brother is going back to Beijing in a while, and I plan to go with him so that I don't have to ask him to pick me up."

At this point, Huang Feng suddenly looked up and asked, "Su Su, are you going to the capital with us?"

“Hmm, I think we might set off on the same day.” Xu Su was pleasantly surprised: “When we get to Beijing, we can go out and have fun together.”

She never imagined that Huang Chao, as Zhou Mochen's personal assistant, would definitely go to Beijing with him. It was perfectly normal for Huang Feng to go to university in Beijing and leave early.

Just as Xu Su was overjoyed at the thought of seeing her good friends in Beijing during the summer vacation, Qian Jia next to her objected.

How could she be left out of the friendship between the three of them!

Qian Jia pouted and complained unhappily, "You guys can go to Beijing together during the summer vacation, leaving me here all alone."

“You should come with us too, so you can get familiar with the capital beforehand.” Xu Su pulled one of them in each hand. “If you’re worried about not having a place to stay, I’ll arrange it for you. I’ll make sure everything is taken care of.”

Putting everything else aside, she already owns an apartment near B University, so it would be great if the three of them could all live there.

As for Zhou Mochen?

Xu Su really didn't expect her jealous boyfriend at this moment.

Qian Jia's family wasn't well-off, so she hesitated for a moment before refusing. Holding Huang Feng's hand, she earnestly instructed, "Then you must become an entertainment reporter in the future. If you can interview Zhao Yuanxi, please ask me to be your assistant, and I'll go with you to the interview."

"You still like him?" Xu Su was surprised that this girl was still chasing after a star in such a busy year.

"You don't live on campus, so you wouldn't know. Her bedside wall is covered with posters of Zhao Yuanxi. She's hopelessly in love with him."

Huang Feng sighed at Xu Su: "Other people listen to English words in their headphones, or at least English songs, but not her! She listens to Zhao Yuanxi's albums."

Qian Jia said seriously, "You don't know how inspiring his songs are. Whenever I feel so much pressure from studying that I'm about to get depressed, I rely on his songs to give me strength."

Xu Su, a master of comforting people, always encourages her friends' hobbies. She immediately chimed in, "Okay, I'll listen to his songs carefully during the summer vacation. Someone Jiajia likes can't be bad."

Huang Feng patted Qian Jia's head and said, "Jiajia, why don't you come to the capital with us ahead of time? Get to know the place better sooner."

Qian Jia thought for a while and said, "How about this, I'll wait for the scores to come out and see if I can get a scholarship from the school. If I can get a scholarship, I'll go to Beijing with you guys and do a summer job to earn some living expenses."

The scholarships for graduating classes at the No. 1 High School in the city are the highest. If Qian Jia can get the scholarship and go to Beijing to find a summer job in advance, it would be better for her than to stay in the countryside for the summer.

"As long as you have a plan, you can stay with me in Beijing anyway. Zhou Mochen got me an apartment near Beijing University."

Xu Su was excited at the thought of living with her two friends. She looked at Huang Feng and said, "You don't need to live with your brother anymore. Just live with me."

"I don't have any objections, but I'm worried your boyfriend won't be happy." Huang Feng chuckled mischievously, "Are you sure your Zhou Mochen would want the two of us third wheels living with him?"

“He won’t have any objections, I’m in charge.” Xu Su was a little embarrassed by her laughter and pinched Huang Feng: “Why are you laughing so lewdly?”

Hearing that her best friend had already become a homeowner in Beijing right after graduation, Huang Feng and Qian Jia were not surprised at all. At their age, they couldn't quite understand what owning a house near a top university in China meant.

They wouldn't re-evaluate their relationship because of this, which is what Xu Su values.

The friendships formed during her student days were too precious for her to let go, so she wouldn't offer Qian Jia financial assistance. Help in emergencies was fine, but she didn't want to interfere in her daily life.

Qian Jia laughed too: "You've been living together for a year now, and you finally have a holiday, why don't you spend it together?"

"I'm a little afraid of your boyfriend."

Huang Feng whispered, "My brother seems to be afraid of him too. Every time I try to ask my brother about his boss, he keeps his mouth shut. It's not just respect, it's more like awe."

She looked at Xu Su with a hint of curiosity: "Su Su, is he very fierce and scary? What does he do? Is he involved in organized crime?"

"...It's not that scary, is it?" Xu Su recalled Zhou Mochen's expressionless face when he drew the knife, and her voice carried a strange hint of guilt.

"Don't overthink it. He's a legitimate businessman. If you're curious, I'll take you to his company when we get to Beijing."

“He was so scary on the playground last year. Many people in our class were afraid just by looking at him from afar. You don’t know, my brother has always been arrogant since he was a child. I can’t even imagine how powerful someone must be to command such respect from someone younger than him.”

Huang Feng shrank back and looked at Xu Su: "Su Su, are you afraid of him?"

She still believes that her best friend was forced into being with her brother's boss...

Qian Jia nodded in agreement.

"Not afraid!"

Xu Su said firmly, "You'll know once you spend more time with him; he really has a very good temper."

Zhou Mochen has a really good temper and doesn't get angry easily. He looks like a well-bred young nobleman. He only hits people when he's pushed to the limit and can't hold back anymore.

Xu Su spoke without any hesitation; the resolute expression on her face could be considered an oath.

Qian Jia and Huang Feng were skeptical.

The three agreed to leave for Beijing ahead of schedule. After leaving the cafeteria, Qian Jia returned to her dormitory to pack her last luggage, planning to wait for the afternoon bus to go home. Xu Su and Huang Feng walked out of the school gate together.

From afar, Huang Chao could see Zhou Mochen's car parked at the school gate. After Xu Su got in, Huang Chao opened the back door and let his sister get into the passenger seat.

This familiar scene reminded Xu Su of the beginning of her first year of high school. After military training, Zhou Mochen and Huang Chao came to pick them up, except that Zhou Mochen was the one sitting in the passenger seat back then.

As soon as Xu Su got into the car, Zhou Mochen reached out and pulled her: "Are you hot? How did your score estimate go?"

"It's about what I expected." Xu Su was a little unaccustomed to being so intimate in front of her good friend, and pushed away his face as he leaned in: "Are you busy this afternoon?"
