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

This fits the aloof persona perfectly...

So, he has absolutely no feelings for Jessica anymore?

However, Xu Su didn't think that Xika was particularly attracted to Si Xuan. In the end, she was just superficially lusting after his body. Even if she was rejected, she probably wouldn't be heartbroken.

Sure enough, after realizing that Si Xuan couldn't handle it, Xi Ka cut her losses in time and set her sights on Yue Sen, a refined and gentle young man.

The next day, she insisted on riding in the same car as Liu Yun and went directly to Yue Sen's car in the back. As a result, Xu Su was the only girl left in Si Xuan's car.

After crossing Zheduo Mountain, everyone experienced varying degrees of altitude sickness.

Xu Su's two oxygen tanks finally came in handy. She huddled alone in the spacious back seat of the car, hugging the oxygen tanks and breathing in the air. Her face was flushed, and she looked quite pitiful.

As they passed Yajiang and were nearing Sky City, Si Xuan, who had been keeping an eye on the back seat, called out to her twice. When Xu Su did not respond for a long time, he lowered his expression slightly, stopped the car on the side of the road, and let Yang Nan get out. He then took out two pills, opened the back door, and got in.

In fact, Xu Su was conscious. Her altitude sickness was not very severe. It's just that she was used to being delicate and didn't feel energetic or want to talk when she felt uncomfortable.

She only managed to lift her head when the car door was opened from the outside and Si Xuan got in.

Si Xuan helped her up: "Are you alright?"

Xu Su hummed in agreement and was about to speak when two pills were shoved into her mouth. Si Xuan opened a bottle of water and handed it to her: "Take your pills first."

After taking the bitter pill, Xu Su felt a little more awake. She put the oxygen tank aside, drank a couple of sips of water, and then lay down again.

Si Xuan pulled out an oxygen pillow from somewhere, placed it on the passenger seat, and said to Xu Su, "Go sleep in the passenger seat. It's more comfortable to sleep with the seat reclined."

Xu Su followed instructions in a daze, and was helped out of the car, then limply climbed into the passenger seat.

Yang Nan remained silent throughout the entire process. Only after Xu Su sat in his seat did he get into the back seat, looking thoughtful.

The passengers in the following cars, who had come down for a break during the parking period, also seemed thoughtful upon seeing this scene.

Whether it was the medication or the rest that gave her more energy, Xu Su definitely felt much more comfortable after getting into the passenger seat.

The complexion visibly improved.

When we arrived at Sky City, we had the energy to go down and take pictures with everyone.

The group of energetic young people adapted remarkably well, each one brimming with spirit. Sika even pulled Liuyun along, turning back to call out, "Susu, come quick!"

During summer vacation, this sky city is very popular with tourists. Some are taking pictures, some are chatting, and there are even a few artists sketching with their paintbrushes.

As one of the highest cities in the world, if you come here, you'd be wasting your trip if you didn't take a good look around.

Xu Su tossed the oxygen tank into the car and walked toward them with a smile.

As soon as she got closer, Sika suddenly leaned over and whispered, "I feel like Si Xuan treats you differently."

"???" Xu Su was startled: "Really?"

"I can vouch for him, yes!" As the only woman among the four elders in the group, Liu Yun had paid close attention to Si Xuan, this aloof and unattainable man. She knew him well enough to know him inside and out, but she still had her own judgment.

Liu Yun nodded affirmatively, "I felt something was off about him a couple of days ago. You don't know how aloof he is, but every time he smiles at you, it's unlike him. He's so gentle and refined, and he even offered you a seat in the passenger seat."

"Also, we're here on vacation. This is supposedly the most beautiful scenic spot in the country. We're all so happy to be here, except for Si Xuan, whose attention isn't on the scenery at all. He keeps glancing at you every now and then."

As she spoke, she and Jessica exchanged a smile, both revealing a knowing smile.

Xu Sumu stared blankly, somewhat incredulous.

Sika studied her for a moment, then blinked: "Sure enough, with our Su Su's beauty paving the way, she's invincible and unstoppable. Even that tough nut was taken down by you."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Xu Su was both amused and exasperated, feeling that the two of them were deliberately teasing her. She shook her head and said, "He let me sit in the passenger seat because I wasn't feeling well at the time, and I was the only girl in the car. It's not too much to ask him to take care of me, is it?"

Sika sighed, "Just wait and see. You can't hide your feelings for someone. Even if you try to hide it on your face, your heart will unconsciously show in your eyes."

"..." Xu Su paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud, teasing her on purpose: "What should we do, Xixi? Will you be angry?"

Sika said, "What's there for me to be angry about? I can't have the one I want the most anyway, so the others are all pretty much the same to me. Si Xuan is very attractive to me, but there's not much difference. If I can't eat the delicacies, I can at least try a cucumber."

As she spoke, she glanced at the boy opposite her.

Xu Su followed her gaze and saw Yue Sen and several boys, including Yang Nan, sitting on a strangely shaped rock, chatting and laughing.

As a photography student, Yang Nan had long been entrusted with the important task of documenting and photographing this trip, and he would occasionally raise his DSLR camera.

Both were in their early twenties. Yue Sen had a scholarly air about him, and his glasses made him look even more refined. He was thin and slender, and his features had a delicate, almost roguish charm in the sunlight.

Sika tugged at Xu Su's arm: "How was it? Wasn't it cool? I really want to see what he looks like after he takes off his glasses."

Xu Su knew that after giving up on Si Xuan, she immediately set her sights on Yue Sen. Although she didn't understand, she expressed her absolute respect.

Xu Su nodded seriously and reminded him, "Make sure to take proper precautions; the rest is up to you to be happy..."

Liu Yun: "..."

She just watched as two girls, both younger than her, discussed this kind of thing without batting an eye, while she blushed with embarrassment…

Are all the girls in this grade this fierce?!

They're actually talking about how to get a man so openly!

unfair!

Why is she already a junior in college and hasn't even had a boyfriend yet?!

Sika kept her word, and for the next two days she and Yue Sen were very close. Everyone could see that this time, they were 'going together'.

After officially entering the XZ Autonomous Region, the temperature difference between day and night became more pronounced.

They also changed their accommodation from guesthouses to camping at campsites for the night.

Along the way, they saw yaks, Tibetan mastiffs, several beautiful lakes, and the boundless Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and also rode camels.

After witnessing the sacred elephant gate of Namtso, one of the three holy lakes, Xu Su felt completely at ease. Here, the distance between the sea and the sky seemed within reach, and all people and things were forgotten at that moment.
