The daily life of a crazy female supporting character trying to redeem herself.

The sky was filled with twinkling stars, and suddenly a shooting star streaked across the sky, disappearing in an instant.

"A meteor shower is coming!" someone shouted. "Quick, turn off all the lights!"

No one objected. One by one, the lights went out with a series of clicks, and everyone looked up at the night sky.

Tonight's sky is like a window with a dark blue privacy film, and the shooting stars are like raindrops, sliding down the windowpane one after another and disappearing into the glass.

Many people put their hands together, closed their eyes, and made a sincere wish.

After making her wish, Xu Xi opened her eyes and noticed that everyone around her was just staring at the night sky. She asked in confusion, "Aren't you all making wishes?"

Qin Zhoumu chuckled, still with that roguish look, and said, "My wish is too long to finish even if I talk about it for a whole day. A shooting star only stays for a few seconds at most, and even if I told it, it wouldn't remember it all."

Xu Xi gritted her teeth and said, "Can't you just get to the point?"

Governor Qin's reply was quite concise: "No."

Xu Xi punched him twice, then went to ask Qin Zhouyu, "Brother Zhouyu, what about you?"

With his hands in his shirt pockets, Qin Zhouyu gazed at a star in the night sky, his eyes fixed on it. He replied calmly, "What I want, I will obtain through my own efforts."

His answer piqued Song Zhiji's interest, prompting him to lower his head and ask Qin Zhouyu, "If you can't get it on your own, what will you do?"

Song Zhiji's question caused the group of people who had been watching the shooting stars to turn their attention to Qin Zhouyu.

Qin Zhouyu remained calm despite being stared at by everyone. He quietly looked at Song Zhiji for a few seconds, and seeing that he only looked curious and had no intention of mocking him, he replied, "I'm not three years old, so I don't think that I can have whatever I want in this world; nor am I thirteen years old, so I don't think that I can get everything I want by working hard; I'm twenty years old now, and I've learned to accept reality."

If you want something, work for it; if you can't get it even if you work hard, accept reality.

Do not give up on yourself, nor wallow in self-pity.

Thinking about his words, Song Zhiji smiled and looked at Qin Zhouyu again with admiration in her eyes, "You've really impressed me today."

Qin Zhouyu showed little interest in his change of attitude and ignored his question, instead asking, "Why didn't you make a wish?"

After thinking for a while, Song Zhiji replied seriously, "Although I am not as confident or insightful as you, I hope that my current wish can be fulfilled without any external influence."

After Song Zhiji finished speaking, he looked at Liang Qing with tender eyes.

If Liang Qing could have glanced at him at that moment, perhaps she would have understood the meaning behind his words.

Unfortunately, all his efforts were in vain once again. It was as if he had laid his heart out to show a blind man, because Liang Qing didn't even look at him.

She seemed to be standing there just to watch the meteor shower. Apart from Song Zhiji's sudden question to Qin Zhouyu, which made her, like everyone else, glance at Qin Zhouyu out of curiosity, she didn't pay attention to any of them.

Liang Qing failed to understand the meaning behind Song Zhiji's words, but Qin Zhouyu did.

He walked over and patted Song Zhiji's shoulder, who was looking at Liang Qing with a somewhat disappointed yet helpless smile. In a voice only the two of them could hear, he solemnly said, "If one day your wish comes true, please take good care of her."

Song Zhiji was surprised by his actions, but seeing his serious expression, he also became serious and promised him, "I will."

Qin Zhouyu nodded slightly after receiving his reply, removed his hand from Qin Zhouyu's shoulder, and said, "Thank you."

Thank you for protecting Liang Qing all this time, even when you knew nothing about it.

His "thank you" was spoken with a heavy tone, tinged with an unyielding sadness.

Just as Song Zhiji was about to ask him what was wrong, Qin Zhouyu had already turned back to his original position, so he had no choice but to withdraw his concern.

Qin Zhouyu's actions clearly showed that he had seen through his intentions. If it were any other time, he might have gotten angry or caused trouble as before.

But tonight, no, perhaps it started after he was cut by the ice skate, he became completely different, almost like a different person.

His words just now almost explicitly indicated that he wanted to withdraw, and even subtly revealed a hint of blessing.

Although they didn't know why Qin Zhouyu had suddenly changed so drastically, it was ultimately a good thing for him and Liang Qing.

He really didn't want to see Qin Zhouyu hurt Liang Qing like before, nor did he want to see Liang Qing and Qin Zhouyu get entangled again.

In particular, he never wanted to see Liang Qing worrying about Qin Zhouyu like she did at the ice rink.

Putting aside Qin Zhouyu's unpredictable personality, in terms of appearance, family background, and education, he and Qin Zhouyu were roughly equal, but his physical fitness was far inferior to Qin Zhouyu's.

Moreover, what made him most insecure was that Qin Zhouyu had indeed been liked by Liang Qing, and the two had even dated.

At first, he thought that since they had broken up, it meant that they were not compatible, which led to the breakup.

However, he felt greatly discouraged whenever he thought of Liang Qing's worried expression when Qin Zhouyu was injured.

I can't help but wonder, if Qin Zhouyu could make Liang Qing fall in love the first time, couldn't he make her fall in love a second time?

Now that Qin Zhouyu has withdrawn, Song Zhiji has to admit he is greatly relieved.

After the meteor shower stopped, Qin Zhoumu leaned closer to Qin Zhouyu and whispered, "Brother, what did you say to Senior Brother Song just now?"

"Children shouldn't meddle in adults' affairs," Qin Zhouyu glanced at him dismissively.

Governor Qin put his arm around his shoulder and said, "I'm only two years younger than you, so stop pretending to be an elder."

Qin Zhouyu pushed him away, stopping his teasing. "Alright, I'm going to take a shower in the mountain bathhouse first. You guys continue watching."

"Let's watch your hands together. You can't touch water, can you?"

The two went into the tent together and took out their clothes.

Governor Qin asked Xu Xi, "Are you going or not? If you are, go get your clothes now and we'll go down the mountain together."

“Okay,” Xu Xi replied, then thought for a moment and turned to call Liang Qing, “Sister, why don’t you come with us?”

If Liang Qing went, it wouldn't be good to leave Song Zhiji alone, so she smiled at Xu Xi and declined, saying, "No, I can go with Zhiji later."

After listening, Song Zhiji said to her, "Go ahead. When I went to rent a light bulb, I passed by there. The boys can't go into the women's shower room. You and Xu Xi can go together so you can look after each other."

“But…” Liang Qing hesitated, but Song Zhiji said again, “It’s okay, I can go when you come back.”

Qin Zhouyu spoke up at this moment, "Let's go together."

Song Zhiji shook his head and said, "I have to stay here to watch over things. You guys go first and come back to relieve me later."

Qin Zhoumu quickly replied, "Okay, then Brother Song, thank you for your help. We'll be right back after we're done washing."
