Psst! We're moving!
She felt something was different.
But this feeling, it was really good.
—From the Diary of Fairy Su Zaizai
Su Zaizai sat down at her seat, her face full of melancholy.
“When a beauty gets sick, they look so delicate and weak, evoking tender feelings.”
Jiang Jia: “...Are you done?”
Su Zaizai nodded, looking worried: “Do you think the blanket is too thin...?”
“Huh? It’s okay. It’s not that cold now; it should be enough.”
“I wonder if the water might be too hot for him. I poured some on my hand to test it, and it seemed fine.”
Jiang Jia thoughtfully responded: “If it feels okay in your hand, then it probably isn’t too hot.”
“Do you think the medicine I bought is too little? But the pharmacy near school only had those.”
“...”
“Or maybe I should bring him the blanket from my dormitory.”
Jiang Jia couldn’t help but rub her forehead: “Su Zaizai, is Zhang Lurang your son...?”
Su Zaizai widened her eyes: “Of course not.”
Then she continued: “But I can help him have a son.”
Jiang Jia: “...”
On the other side.
Zhang Lurang pinched the note with his fingers and gently pulled it into his fingertips.
He looked at the content on the note, somewhat speechless.
Afterward, he lowered his head, staring at the small blanket on the chair.
After hesitating for a moment, he picked it up.
He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall—it was almost 6:30.
Zhang Lurang could only fold it neatly, place it on his lap, and sit down.
He took out his phone from his pocket.
Upon checking, he saw there was already a reply.
Su Zaizai: Did you see it? Did you see it?!
After coughing softly twice, Zhang Lurang replied: Mm.
Just as he was about to ask how much the medicine cost,
Su Zaizai spoke again: Don’t mention money to Boss Su; Boss Su has plenty of money.
Su Zaizai: All of Boss Su’s money is yours; don’t be too stingy with Boss Su.
Zhang Lurang: “...”
He truly didn’t know how to respond.
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Lurang decided not to reply.
The bell for evening study rang just in time.
Zhang Lurang placed his phone back in the drawer.
After a while.
He scratched his head and took the phone out of the drawer again.
He saw she had sent two more messages.
— Rang Rang.
— Don’t get sick.
Zhang Lurang stared at the two messages.
Until Zhou Xuyin patted his shoulder, signaling that the teacher had arrived.
Only then did he snap out of it.
He quickly shoved the phone back into the drawer.
Zhang Lurang picked up his pen and started doing homework.
The tip of his pen remained still, unmoving.
A few minutes later.
He reopened the bag and took out a box of cold medicine.
With the lukewarm water from the thermos, he swallowed two pills.
Afterward, he turned on his phone.
Reply: Mm.

Thursday.
Su Zaizai suddenly realized that walking normally no longer hurt.
As long as her wound didn’t bump into anything, she barely felt anything.
When the two were returning from the reading room in the afternoon.
Su Zaizai directly mentioned to him: “My foot doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Zhang Lurang glanced down at her foot and responded: “Mm.”
“So, I’ll come find you from now on, alright?”
Zhang Lurang paused, not answering.
Not getting a response from him, Su Zaizai leaned closer and shamelessly asked:
“Can I come find you in your class?”
Zhang Lurang didn’t hesitate much and simply nodded.
Su Zaizai was so happy she nearly jumped for joy.
“Anytime?”
Zhang Lurang thought for a moment: “Except during class.”
“Since you’re like this...”
“Mm?”
Su Zaizai brazenly said: “Then I agree you can also come find me.”
However, Zhang Lurang didn’t seem to find anything inappropriate about it.
He seriously responded with an “Mm.”
This reaction made Su Zaizai feel a bit embarrassed.
Su Zaizai changed the subject.
“Jiang Jia told me before that there are two particularly handsome boys in Class One.”
“Mm.” He casually acknowledged.
“One is you, and the other is Zhou Xuyin, your desk mate.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lurang turned to look at her.
Su Zaizai didn’t notice his gaze and continued: “I saw him yesterday when I came to give you something...”
How could he even be compared to you?
He’s not even as good-looking as one of your hairs!
She hadn’t even said those two sentences yet.
Zhang Lurang spoke up: “Su Zaizai.”
Suddenly interrupted, Su Zaizai blankly responded: “Huh?”
His expression became obscure: “If your foot isn’t fully healed, don’t run around.”
Accused for no reason,
Su Zaizai innocently said: “It’s almost healed.”
Zhang Lurang scratched his hair and lowered his head.
Lost in thought about something.
Su Zaizai playfully changed the subject.
“If you don’t want me to run around, then come find me?”
“Alright,” he immediately replied.
Su Zaizai didn’t react in time.
Zhang Lurang’s eyes looked a bit unnatural.
Instinctively averting his gaze, he asked her: “How are you going home tomorrow?”
Su Zaizai’s thoughts were immediately drawn to this.
After thinking for a moment, she answered: “Probably with Jiang Jia to Maoye Building to take the bus.”
Zhang Lurang turned to look at her and softly said: “Take a taxi back.”
“...Why?”
A taxi costs fifty yuan! Was she crazy?!
“There will be too many people; you might get trampled.”
Su Zaizai lowered her head and obediently said: “Oh.”
Seeing this, Zhang Lurang glanced down at her and asked: “Didn’t you say you wanted to teach me how to ride a bike?”
At this mention, Su Zaizai got excited: “Right! When?”
“Then get better quickly,” he said.

Friday night.
After finishing her English homework, Su Zaizai sent a WeChat message to Zhang Lurang.
Su Zaizai: Rang Rang.
Su Zaizai: Are you going to walk Susu tomorrow?
After a few minutes, Zhang Lurang replied.
Zhang Lurang: Mm.
Su Zaizai: When?
Zhang Lurang: ...
After waiting a few minutes, there was still no response from him.
Su Zaizai couldn’t believe it.
They now had a relationship that had weathered some storms.
Why did the beautiful boy always instinctively try to reject her?
Su Zaizai got angry and made a bold statement: If you don’t tell me, I’ll go wait outside your house right now.
Su Zaizai: I’m leaving at seven tomorrow morning, giving you a chance to bump into me.
Zhang Lurang: ...
Seeing this, Su Zaizai directly tossed her phone aside.
Buried herself in the blankets.
She felt that she was being unreasonable.
Even more annoying than before.
Getting angry every time she was rejected.
But she clearly had no right to be angry with him.
After a while, her phone rang again.
Su Zaizai slowly moved over, picked up her phone.
The lock screen lit up with a sentence.
— Eat breakfast first before coming out.
Su Zaizai rubbed her eyes and slowly replied: There’s nothing to eat at home.
Then she stared at the message above: The other party is typing...
Counting silently.
One, two, three...
Five seconds later.
Her phone beeped.
— I’ll buy it for you.
Su Zaizai’s bad mood instantly vanished.
Her fingers started typing on the screen.
Su Zaizai: I want to eat the red bean bun from the bakery next to Jinghua.
Zhang Lurang: Okay.
She couldn’t help but roll on her bed.
Then pressed further: I want to eat it with you.
Zhang Lurang replied quickly.
— Okay.

The next morning, Su Zaizai left on time at seven.
She entered the elevator and sent a WeChat message to Zhang Lurang.
Su Zaizai: Rang Rang, where are you?
Zhang Lurang: Outside your building.
Su Zaizai smiled foolishly where she stood.
After a few minutes, she realized she hadn’t pressed the floor button.
She blinked and quickly tapped the number “1” key.
Exiting the building gate.
Zhang Lurang stood under the shade of a tree not far away.
In one hand, he held a bag, and in the other, a black dog leash.
Seeing her come down, he called out: “Susu, come back.”
At the same time, a person and a dog bounded toward him.
Su Zaizai shamelessly responded: “I’m here.”
The Susu by her feet barked.
Zhang Lurang: “...”
He bent down and fastened the leash on Susu.
Looking at the adorable Samoyed, Su Zaizai asked: “Can I hold him?”
Zhang Lurang didn’t hesitate: “No.”
Su Zaizai was stunned, thinking she had misheard.
But she still lowered her request and said: “Can I pet him then?”
“No.”
This time, she was sure she hadn’t misheard earlier.
Rejected twice in a row, Su Zaizai exploded.
“Is the dog you keep at home a national treasure? You can’t even touch it!”
Her sudden rise in tone startled Zhang Lurang.
Quickly, he said: “It’s aggressive towards strangers.”
Su Zaizai grumbled: “Am I someone who gets scared easily?”
After a brief silence,
Zhang Lurang finally spoke: “Mm.”
Su Zaizai: “...”
“It might bite you.”
“Then forget it, tell it to stay away.”
“...”
Su Zaizai was still a bit afraid.
After some thought, she cautiously threatened.
“If it bites me, I’ll bite you.”
Su Zaizai didn’t mean anything else.
Mainly because she hadn’t thought of anything else yet.
But Zhang Lurang’s ears suddenly burned.
Like a small flame.
