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

From the moment he entered until he left, it took less than ten minutes. Xu Su even felt as if he had come specifically to see her, to see if she had recovered from yesterday's dejected mood.

What a warm person.

Xu Su mentally stamped his approval: very handsome, a decent person, and self-disciplined; a very high-quality guy.

This is the kind of guy she should reserve for her best friends.

As soon as Si Xuan left, Huang Feng scurried over from the cashier like a little bee, shaking Xu Su's shoulder and yelling, "Su Su! Where did you get to know so many handsome guys! Where did this Si Xuan come from?!"

"Let go first, let go first." She shook him so hard he was dizzy. Xu Su hurriedly sat up straight. "She's the leader of the elite group, also a student at B University, maybe a junior or senior in the fall semester."

Huang Feng already knew that she played online games, and Xu Su had even played with her for a couple of days. Upon hearing this, her eyes widened: "What kind of luck is this? To run into such a handsome man while playing an online game."

Qian Jia rushed over to find Huang Feng after get off work. As soon as she entered, she saw the two friends whispering in a corner. Upon closer inspection, she overheard the "handsome man" and couldn't help but interrupt, "What handsome man? Where is he?"

"By the time you arrive, the daylily buds will be cold."

Huang Feng hooked Qian Jia's hand around her arm and, employing the exaggerated rhetoric typical of liberal arts students, described Si Xuan's looks as breathtakingly beautiful, practically divine.

Xu Su's eyes widened in disbelief; she seriously doubted whether the person she was talking about even existed in the world.

Si Xuan is handsome, but not to the point of being the most handsome man in the world, right?

Putting aside everything else, Zhou Mochen alone is enough to fight him.

Qian Jia clearly didn't believe it either, her eyes full of suspicion as she said, "You're kidding me."

Huang Feng: "...Fine, don't believe me then. Si Xuan is really handsome."

Qian Jia asked, "Is he as handsome as Zhou Mochen?"

Upon hearing her boyfriend's name, Xu Su exclaimed in surprise and looked up in confusion: "When did Zhou Mochen become the benchmark for handsomeness?"

"There's nothing we can do, your boyfriend is the most handsome person we know,"

Qian Jia said seriously, "It's not just their faces, their aura alone makes them seem like extraordinary people. And that guy named Shen Chen, although he seems easy to talk to, I always feel like he's not someone to mess with."

As they talked, the conversation turned to Shen Chen again.

Xu Su's smile gradually faded, and she sighed, "Let's go eat. I'm going on a trip tomorrow, and I won't be back for at least a month or two."

Huang Feng and the others knew that she was going to travel to the snow area.

Dinner was at the same restaurant that Zhou Mochen had taken them to before.

Without men around, the three girls dared to talk about anything.

Huang Feng and Qian Jia first talked about the situations they had encountered at work these past few days, recounting several bizarre experiences, before the topic drifted to Xu Su.

Compared to their simple and mundane daily lives, Xu Su's life is more exciting than an idol drama, and as her best friends, Huang Feng and Qian Jia are extremely interested.

The conversation lasted all night, from Xi Zirong to Zhou Mochen, and then to Si Xuan, who appeared in the afternoon.

Huang Feng interrogated him like a criminal, wanting to get to the bottom of things. Xi Zirong was alright, after all, she was a thing of the past, and they knew everything they needed to know. The main problem was Si Xuan.

Hearing that Si Xuan would also be going on a trip with Xu Su tomorrow, Huang Feng chuckled mischievously, "Su Su, is your boyfriend really okay with you going on a trip by yourself?"

“What’s there to worry about?” Xu Su glanced at her. “There are more than a dozen of us. There’s no danger.”

This person completely misunderstands what they mean.

Huang Feng cleared her throat. "What I mean is, with your ability to attract suitors, isn't Zhou Mochen afraid that your trip will bring him a few rivals?"

"What kind of romantic troubles have I attracted?" Xu Su asked, annoyed. "Don't accuse me unjustly..."

The conversation eventually turned to Shen Chen.

"The day before yesterday, the three of us made plans to go out together, but you stood me and Jiajia up. Since you didn't come, we didn't go out, canceled our leave, and went back to work. I didn't expect Shen Chen to come knocking on our door in the afternoon."

Huang Feng said, "I was at work when he suddenly showed up at the bubble tea shop and immediately asked if I could contact you. His expression... tsk..."

She said, with a heavy heart, "It was like she had lost some great treasure; she looked so lost and pitiful."

Xu Su: "..."

What a load of rubbish!

Speaking of Shen Chen, even Qian Jia said, "Last time at the bar, I always felt that Shen Chen's gaze towards you was strange, a bit like Xi Shen back then, you know, anyway, it's not innocent."

Xu Su: "..."

So, even Qian Jia figured it out...?

How oblivious she is!

Seeing that Xu Su didn't look surprised, Huang Feng couldn't help but ask, "Su Su, did you know all along that Shen Chen liked you?"

"No, no," Xu Su was speechless. "I only found out these last two days. If I had known earlier, I would never have gotten so close to him."

Mentioning Shen Chen reminded Xu Su of his actions yesterday, and her rare relaxed mood was uncontrollably affected.

Huang Feng and Qian Jia exchanged a glance and noticed Xu Su's annoyance.

Qian Jia asked, "Does your husband Zhou Mochen know about this?"

“Hmm…” Xu Su nodded and took a sip of her hot water. “They had a fight yesterday, and Shen Chen is still in the hospital right now.”

"Holy crap!" Huang Feng exclaimed, "Brothers turned against each other? Did they hurt you?"

Qian Jia stared at her with wide eyes.

They didn't hurt you, did they...?

Xu Su felt a warmth in her heart, and smiled at them, holding the cup, "Do I look injured?"

Huang Feng had previously expressed her affection for Shen Chen, but it was an affection that was viewed through her own lens.

So much so that on her way here, Xu Su secretly worried that Huang Feng might feel uncomfortable about Shen Chen liking her.

Sure enough, a best friend is a best friend. Huang Feng's first reaction was to worry that the fight between the two grown men might affect her.

Huang Feng said, "I used to think Shen Chen was quite gentle, but now it seems that he likes you, so he might only be gentle to you."

She thought back to what happened in the bar restroom last time; those two girls were from a music academy, and they were so beautiful, but...

In short, ever since that experience completely shattered her worldview, Huang Feng no longer harbored any naive thoughts about Shen Chen's circle.

These wealthy people seem to be quite aloof. They are born with the life that ordinary people strive for, so what they want is something more exciting and something that goes beyond moral boundaries.

Ordinary people or things probably wouldn't attract their attention...

Even big stars have to bow and scrape before them, don't they?

Huang Feng even secretly worried that Xu Su might one day be treated the same way as those two sisters…
