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

Although Gu Yunjia's rumors circulated in the school for a while, they were ultimately just rumors, and because they were so outrageous, very few people believed them.

Aside from Xu Su, who was personally informed by the person involved, and Xi Zirong, who overheard the inside story by chance, Huang Feng and Qian Jia were unaware of it, and Xu Su had never told any of her classmates.

Zhou Mochen did know the name, but when he heard it, he didn't even frown, and didn't take it to heart at all.

Xu Su felt a sense of relief. Now that she was going to university in Beijing, Gu Yunjia's 'uncle' couldn't possibly still be involved, right?

She'll get better and better...

As classmates and once very close friends, Xu Su sincerely hoped that Gu Yunjia would have a bright future, and that the setbacks she encountered in her youth were nothing...

After a satisfying meal, as Xu Su was about to leave, she drank a lot of water and got up to go to the restroom.

Seeing that she was clear-headed and worried that she might be too proud, Zhou Mochen didn't offer to accompany her. He only told her not to wander off and to remember to ask a waiter for directions.

Even so, Xu Su was still speechless. How could they do this? She was just going to the restroom and they had to give her repeated instructions.

Huang Feng, standing to the side, winked and smiled at her...

Xu Su was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed by her silent teasing, and hurriedly got up and left.

Just a few steps after leaving the private room, Xu Su saw a waitress carrying a bottle of wine in both hands as she walked by. She casually asked her for directions to the restroom.

In response, the waitress gave her a look of amazement. Xu Su was slightly taken aback, touched her face, and realized that she had forgotten to wear a mask when she came out.

Actually, she has gotten into the habit of wearing a mask when she goes out recently. She was wearing a mask when she entered the store, but she forgot to wear it when she went to the restroom.

Xu Su felt helpless. She didn't like going out in a secretive way. Come to think of it, she didn't have the habit of wearing a mask in her previous life either. However, she had a simple social life back then, and she was either at school or with Zhou Mochen.

Just as he was about to say something, the waiter, distracted, loosened his grip slightly, and the wine bottle slipped from his hand, about to shatter on the floor…

In the nick of time, Xu Su swiftly snatched the bottle away. She glanced at it in her hand, handed it back to the pale-faced waiter, and whispered a reminder: "Be careful."

This wine isn't cheap; if you were to break it, it would cost you at least six months' salary...

The young waitress accepted the bottle with both hands, bowed in thanks, and still looked somewhat shaken.

Xu Su waved her hand and asked her again for directions to the restroom.

"There's a sign to the right ahead, you'll see it when you get there." Halfway through her sentence, the waitress pointed to the door of the private room next door and added, "Or you can wait for me a moment, I'll finish serving the drinks and then show you the way."

Out of politeness, Xu Su looked up in the direction she was pointing, only to be met with a pair of deep eyes.

A tall, thin young man in black was standing outside the private room the waiter had pointed to, his phone pressed to his ear, presumably to answer a call. His eyes were fixed in this direction, and it was unclear how long he had been watching. When Xu Su looked over, the young man's eyes flickered slightly.

…………

Xu Su stood there stunned for several seconds before looking away.

"No,"

Xu Su smiled at the waiter: "You go ahead and do your work, I know how to get there."

The place isn't very big, and there aren't many private rooms, so you won't get lost.

On the way to the restroom, Xu Su had to pass the young man in black, and she felt inexplicably nervous.

She remembered Gu Yunjia's words: when a person's appearance reaches a certain level, it has an impact, and she had just been briefly impacted by it.

Aside from Zhou Mochen, this was the first time anyone had been amazed by her appearance.

The last time I felt this amazed was when I first met Zhou Mochen in my past life.

The memory was so distant that Xu Su had almost forgotten that she had ever been so amazed by Zhou Mochen…

Returning from the restroom, Xu Su entered the private room eager to say something, but upon seeing her beloved boyfriend sitting beside her…

She quickly swallowed the words that were already on the tip of her tongue, thinking to herself how close she had come to disaster.

I originally wanted to chat with my two best friends about meeting a super handsome guy, but thankfully she managed to control herself.

If this were mentioned, given Zhou Mochen's jealousy, who knows how much he would retaliate.

She didn't say anything, but Huang Feng waved to her and called out, "Su Su, didn't you bring your phone? There are so many QQ messages coming in."

On the table, the screen of Xu Su's phone kept lighting up with message notifications, all from the Qingxuan Sect elite group.

Huang Feng sat down next to Xu Su, her phone on the table between them. She leaned over to look at it and said, "You guys chat so much in the group chat. Dozens of messages in just a short time. Our class group has dozens of people and it's never this lively."

On the other side, Zhou Mochen lowered his eyes, seemingly lost in thought. Of course, he knew about Xu Su's several QQ groups and that she had made a group of gaming friends through online games, including future alumni of Beijing University. This group was also planning to hold an offline gathering in Beijing in a while.

He had no objection to this, only asking that Xu Su report her whereabouts to him in advance, no matter where she went, for her safety.

To be fair, Zhou Mochen's controlling nature has improved somewhat, and he has gradually been able to convince himself to accept that Xu Su has an independent social circle.

Whether it's her close friendship with Huang Feng and Qian Jia, meeting her online gaming friends in person, or her increasingly close relationship with Shen Chen, as long as she's under his watchful eye, he can tolerate it.

Zhou Mochen really didn't want to argue with Xu Su unless his bottom line was crossed; he dreaded the days when the two of them were in a cold war...

Xu Su picked up her phone and looked at the group chat messages. It was very lively, with many people posting. She scrolled up the chat history to see what was going on.

Huang Feng leaned over and watched along with her.

"Isn't this the restaurant in the picture?" Suddenly, Huang Feng pointed to a picture and said, "I just took a picture downstairs, this is it."

Xu Su clicked on the photo and saw that it was also a private room. The background decoration and layout were indeed very similar to theirs. Then she looked at the waiter's uniform standing in the corner...

Xu Su confirmed, "It's the same place. It seems some of my group members are also eating here."

"What a coincidence!" Qian Jia had never made friends online before, and she was quite surprised. "Do you want to go see what they look like?"

Xu Su remained noncommittal, only looking at who had sent the picture.

……master?

"Do you want to go see him?" Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Mochen offered, "I can go with you."

"..." Xu Su thought for a moment, "Never mind, it would be too presumptuous of me to suddenly run over there without them being prepared."
