Grandma had a favorite stepson’s son named Ye Xu. Some people don’t stand at the very center, yet still become the center of attention.
Ye Xu of the Ye family was like that. So was Ye Xu of No. 1 High School.
Even before she transferred, she’d heard about him from her mother, her grandmother, and her classmates. But none of those stories compared to the boy standing in front of her.
Under the dim streetlights, the boy blocked her way. “Jiang Zhiye, can I have a hug?”
“Sure,” she said. “But put your hands in your pockets.”
The boy did as she asked, slipping one hand into his pocket and looking at her leisurely.
“Put the other one in too.”
“Like this?” He smiled, enjoying the evening breeze and the afterglow in her eyes.
“But if I do this, how can I...”
“I’ll hug you,” she interrupted, straightening her body and resting her head at an angle on his shoulder. She saw his Adam’s apple bob, just like her heartbeat.
His arm started to lift, but she immediately wrapped hers around him. “Don’t reach out.”
He lowered his eyes to look at her, the corners of his mouth lifting. “You like cool guys?”
Only after her breathing had steadied did she reply, “Yeah, so you’ll have to be a little cooler from now on.”

[Enemies to lovers/Push and pull/Untouchable beauty/Pride and Prejudice]
Song Cun had just completed a concerto collaboration with a renowned European orchestra. She thought her career was finally about to take off, but instead she got caught up in a media storm and became the target of everyone’s blame.
Her past was dug up, rumors swarmed, and her career teetered on the brink. Proud as she was, she had no choice but to step forward and put a stop to it.
Rumor had it that the Yan family was behind the person who started it all. The Yan family’s young master had once been photographed attending the new book launch of this beautiful writer, and, unusually, he’d let the media report on it, sparking speculation.
As she looked at the enlarged image of his handsome face, memories buried deep within her were gradually unearthed.
Song Cun knew him. Not only did she know him, they’d once been neighbors in the same residential compound and had crossed paths.
Only, they’d crossed paths by falling out.
**
When a snake bites you, you should seek medical attention right away, not chase after it to hit it.
But when it came to Song Cun, Yan Lie never seemed able to do that.
The first time she pushed him into a quagmire, he returned covered in wounds and defeated.
Years later, she came after him again.
When she stood in front of him again, she wasn’t there to apologize, but to demand an explanation. Her familiar arrogance stirred the desire for revenge in his heart. He was willing to hurt himself a thousand times just to hurt his enemy eight hundred.
But it seemed the curse of chasing snakes was destined to persist. In the end, he realized that what he’d been unable to let go of all these years wasn’t those pranks at all. It was her.
*At every offbeat moment, we have the chance to let go of our prejudice toward each other.

There are several copies of the author's column available in advance. You can save which ones you like. Thank you all! [Cat head][cat head][cat head]
Finished spreading flowers? Lala (PS is this the benefit of going to bed late and a little girl will be happy again?) I hope Xiaoye and Ye Xu in the parallel world will always be happy. I am very happy to meet you during this summer vacation and thank you for the wonderful story. (School starts in just two days and I am afraid that I will not be able to finish it, but there is a turning point, haha?) I wish everyone a happy life.
It's like the cold winter is coming after the blazing summer, but it's not cold by relying on its own heat. Oh my, it looks good anyway [Spread flowers] 🌈 💪 🐰
And judging from this chapter, Ye Xu started to pay more attention to Xiao, and then accumulated feelings through observing and getting along with her?
I really like Xiaoye's flashback in this chapter.
Will we talk about high school graduation later? I don't seem to understand why these two people had a falling out after they went to the United States.
Why do so many endings stop at meeting the elders hahahahaha
Day 20087 of feeling sorry for Xiao Ye. I also like the description of Xiao Ye's thoughts in this chapter. Our classmate Ye Xu is jealous and angry. Although I understand, but from the standpoint of firmly protecting Xiao Ye, I still feel that the sense of security he gives Xiao Ye is not enough.
Sorry, sorry, babies! Because I accidentally fell and cut my hand on the tile, which required stitches, I may not be able to guarantee daily updates. I will try my best to update every other day 😭, but there will be no updates tonight! (The words were typed by a kind person)
