The Galaxy Tonight Is Beautiful (2)

As the car drove on the road, Xue Xi looked at the surrounding scenery and found it more and more familiar.0

Of course she would. She had once walked this path for an entire year.

That's right. Xiang Huai had brought her to Bin City International High School.

Although she had always been reading on the way to school and did not waste much time, she could still remember the familiar surroundings with a casual glance.

It had only been a year since she was last here, and nothing had changed in Bin City.

Along the way, there was still that breakfast shop, that stationery shop, and Xue Xi even saw Old Liu riding his old bicycle out of school in the cold winter.

Old Liu had sent them off. He was still in charge of third-years this year.

The third-year students started school on the sixth day of the new year, so Old Liu had come to keep an eye on them today.

It was 9 PM and he had just finished class. He rode his bicycle alone and rushed home.

Xiang Huai's car was parked on the street at the school gate. When he saw Old Liu, he asked, "Do you want to greet him?"

Xue Xi shook her head.

Old Liu was a very good teacher, but Xue Xi knew that Old Liu was not doing this for anything in return.

She might have been his best student, but she was just a student.

Old Liu definitely hoped to nurture more university students.

Creak… Creak…

The sound of the dilapidated bicycle gradually faded away. Old Liu's figure also disappeared from the street.

Xiang Huai held Xue Xi's hand and made her look at the roadside.

Xue Xi then realized that they were actually at the Ye Lai Xiang provision store.

She widened her eyes and saw Xiang Huai smile. "Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Xue Xi did not reply, but she could not wait to get out of the car. Xue Xi was not wearing much. She was still wearing the gown from the banquet and a woolen coat.

However, espers had good physiques and were not afraid of the cold.

But Xiang Huai was still afraid that she would feel cold, so he quickly opened the provision store's door. He walked in first and turned on the lights.

The curtain swayed as Xiang Huai entered.

The sound of wind chimes came from inside.

Xue Xi stared at the door and seemed to have returned to a year and a half ago. She had just entered high school and was walking along this street in boredom after the examination. She saw the provision store and knew that it might sell water, so she entered.

It was here that she and Xiang Huai met.

She then recalled the mumbling that told her "you'll die if you don't fall in love" and the pain in her heart.

She clutched her chest and suddenly realized that her "angina" had stopped acting up during this period of time.

Was it because she was currently in a relationship with Xiang Huai?

Just as she was thinking this, the man in the room reached out to her with his back facing the light. His lips curled up slightly as he slowly said in a low voice:

"I'm very good at fighting and I'm very rich.

"Be my girlfriend. I'll protect you."

Xue Xi: "…"

Was she so silly back then?

Thinking about it now, it actually felt a little sweet.

She smiled and took a step forward into the room. She placed her hand in his and deliberately lowered her voice.

"Xue Xi.

"Your girlfriend's name."

…

After a long while, the two of them laughed.

The two of them did not speak. Instead, they walked around the familiar provision store until Xiang Huai suddenly held Xue Xi's waist. "Little kid, you bought a balloon back then and said that we can play with them together when there's a chance."

Balloons?

Xue Xi paused and heard him say, "Now, there's a chance."
