Lin Zhixu lived as someone else's child for twelve years.
She also tutored Jiang Yu for twelve years - from "What is 2+3 equals" in the first grade of elementary school to the derivative question in the third grade of high school. This boy who was always last in exams and always called her "Tell me again" pitifully was the most natural existence in her youth.
Until the opening ceremony of the third year of high school, Jiang Yu came to the stage to receive the award as the first in his grade.
When passing by her, he bent down and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, you teach well."
Lin Zhixu's world view collapsed.
What's even more outrageous is that this "idiot" who she thought needed protection began to appear in her life more and more frequently - the orange soda on the rooftop, the coat in the library, the MVP trophy after the basketball game. The whole class was laughing at CP, but she was the only one who still wondered, "Is he playing tricks on me?"
Until she dug out her graduation photos from 12 years ago and found that every time she took a photo, he stood closest to her.
The phone rang, and the friend request note read: "It's been twelve years, is it time to add a friend?"
What she didn't know was that the boy she bribed with a bottle of soda was already prepared to spend the rest of his life repaying the sweetness of this bottle of soda.
---
That summer, she handed him a bottle of orange soda.
Every day after that is summer.
