The club entrance was the only convenient location to hail a taxi. Wen Nian quickly stashed her jacket in her backpack and removed her cap before jogging back to the club.

Several taxis were waiting for customers at the entrance. Wen Nian casually got into one of the cars, gave the address of the mall, and prepared to retrieve her school bag first.

On the other side, after Shen Jun had dropped off Wen Nian in Fujing District, he returned to the club where he was celebrating his birthday with a few friends. As the host, he couldn’t just leave everyone behind.

He went back and spent more time at the party before sending the drunk Zhao Wu and Bai Ling back to Zhao Wu’s neighborhood.

Just as he drove to the intersection in front of Xifeng Court, Shen Jun suddenly saw Wen Nian sitting in the backseat of a taxi passing in front of him.

His eyes widened slightly. At the same time, the left-turn light lit up, and Shen Jun followed quickly, without hesitation.

Ten minutes later, Shen Jun followed her to an old neighborhood and saw Wen Nian get out of the car and go upstairs.

Soon after, a dark room on the third floor lit up with a faint glow.

After a moment’s hesitation, Shen Jun picked up his phone and sent a message.

Shen Jun asked, “Are you asleep? How many pages of exercise books did you write when you got home?”

“I’m preparing to rest. I’ve written five pages!” Wen Nian replied.

After replying, Wen Nian guiltily touched her nose.

Even though she could have used the excuse of feeling unwell, she subconsciously wanted Shen Jun to know that she had completed her homework diligently. Before she realized it, she had already hit send.

Shen Jun replied, “I’ll check tomorrow.”

Wen Nian stared at the message on her phone in shock. Shen Jun had never before asked to check her daily exercise book, so she had taken the risk of lying. “It’s over…” she thought to herself in dismay.

Wen Nian replied, “Okay.”

Observing that Wen Nian didn’t offer any excuse, Shen Jun surmised that she would likely spend the night studying and completing her exercise book.

Noticing that it was nearly midnight, Shen Jun let out a helpless sigh and messaged Wen Nian, telling her that he was only joking and encouraging her to get some rest.

“Wen Nian raised her eyebrows and smiled as she read the message. She quickly got changed into her pajamas and went to wash up. Shen Jun waited downstairs for half an hour and only drove away when he saw that the previously lit room had fallen into darkness once more.

The weekends always seemed to arrive quickly once Wednesday had passed.

Wen Nian rescheduled her cleaning for Sunday and decided to pick out a gift for Shen Jun on Saturday. Even though Shen Jun’s birthday had already passed, she still wanted to express her appreciation.

Wen Nian emptied out her savings and began counting. She quickly realized that even with 1,000 yuan, she wouldn’t be able to buy anything suitable for Shen Jun’s needs. As she thought about the price of his daily necessities, she realized that this amount of money could not buy anything suitable for Shen Jun.

“Sigh, I can only focus on the emotional value of gifts.”

Wen Nian took all the money and was about to leave when she suddenly realized that she could ask Zheng Mo out.

Since their meeting at the mixed martial arts club, Wen Nian had gradually become closer to Zheng Mo. She had put in a lot of effort, and eventually, the two of them had exchanged WeChat messages. Because of their mutual interest in mixed martial arts, they often discussed theories and techniques, and had grown to be very familiar with one another.

The two of them arranged to meet at Baisheng Mall.

Zheng Mo had a personality that was more in line with a stereotypical masculine disposition. As a result, she had more friends who were male. When shopping, she was quick and decisive, much like her male counterparts, unlike other girls who might spend half a day searching for a suitable outfit.

This was the first time Zheng Mo had ever shopped so slowly, and she was feeling a bit nervous. She took the initiative to ask Wen Nian, “Are you looking to buy clothes?

Wen Nian shook her head and smiled. “It’s Shen Jun’s birthday a few days ago. I want to give him a gift.”

Zheng Mo nodded and said, “What do you plan to give him?”

Wen Nian hadn’t yet thought of a gift and planned to browse while shopping. She asked, “Do you have any good suggestions?

Zheng Mo thought about the gifts she had given before and started counting with her fingers. “Game console, wallet, fountain pen…”

Zheng Mo would come up with a gift idea and Wen Nian would reject it.

After more than 20 gift ideas were rejected, Zheng Mo was so angry that she laughed. She looked at Wen Nian helplessly and teased, “Your Shen Jun is the most precious. It’s not that he doesn’t lack it, but the things aren’t worthy of him. You can give yourself to him.”

When Wen Nian heard Zheng Mo’s words, her ears turned red. “What do you mean by ‘my Shen Jun? We’re just classmates!”

Although Zheng Mo had never been in a relationship before, she had a crush on someone. They were all in the same club. Recently, during class, Zheng Mo felt that there was an inexplicable atmosphere between Shen Jun and Wen Nian. They weren’t in love. However, it was as though they were more than friends, but not yet lovers..”
