And when Zuo Xiaoduo left, that half-smiling glance he gave her, and those words he transmitted to her: "If you don't make your move, he won't be yours!"
Li Chenglong was no ordinary character. He was the most sought-after catch after Zuo Xiaoduo!
So today, she had resolutely gone on the offensive, turning back for nothing, smashing her cooking pots and sinking her boats.
The students dispersed in twos and threes, discussing in low voices as they walked, marveling and sighing with emotion...
Xiang Chong sat where he was, seemingly composed, not moving for a long, long time. Only the corners of his mouth held a little bitterness, a little smile.
Meng Changjun, Hao Han, Jia Kuang, Pi Yibao, and the others came over.
"What's wrong? Feeling a little bereft?" Meng Changjun smiled, his expression full of emotion too.
"When my older sister got married, I felt the same way."
Xiang Chong laughed. "Really, what do I have to feel bereft about? My own little sister found her happiness today. What am I feeling bereft for? This is a good thing! A wonderful thing!"
Jia Kuang suggested, "How about going out for drinks? Shall we have a few?"
"Sure!"
Xiang Chong laughed. "Come on, my treat!"
The boys headed out together.
Then several more ran over. "Count me in!"
Xiang Chong roared with laughter. "Everyone's coming, everyone! Let's all go! Joy for everyone! Let's celebrate together!"
Zhen Piaopiao called from a distance, "Slow down! We'll come too, once we've changed!"
"Then hurry up!"
Xiang Chong bellowed. That one shout was all it took.
With a sudden flurry, every single boy and girl in Class One, apart from Zuo Xiaoduo, Li Chenglong, and Xiang Bing, assembled!
Not one was missing!
Gao Qiao'er also strolled over from a distance with Gao Chengxiang.
