Chen Ji had never imagined that a bright, sunny boy would enter her youth. He was gentle, well-mannered, knew when to advance and when to retreat, and had a kind heart. The road was quiet as they walked side by side. Chen Ji slowly stepped over the fallen leaves, their rustling following them all the way.
Song Juyan looked at her with a smile in his eyes and asked softly, “Where do you want to go to college?”
Chen Ji turned to him. “I haven’t decided yet. If I do well on the entrance exams, maybe Beijing. Or somewhere around Jiangsu or Zhejiang. I’m leaning toward the latter.”
Song Juyan asked quietly, “Why do you want to go to Jiangsu or Zhejiang?”
“I want to see the real Jiangnan. What about you?”
“The same as you.”
Chen Ji froze and stopped walking. “Huh? You?”
Song Juyan stopped too. His expression was serious as he said slowly, “I want to get into the same school as you.”
