Chapter 52 Do Not Forget

un, and beside Dong Qingyun on his left, in the far left seat of the fourth row of the second group near the aisle, sat Tang Wu.The day was the last day of classes, and everyone had a mix of excitemen...Chapter 52 Please Don't Forget

Va's every move was monitored by his family and school. Only in thoughts, during adolescence, he had daydreamed about frolicking without a care in the dorm room at school, throwing pots and pans around recklessly, staying up all night playing video games, or having close friends blocking an entire street with their vehicles while ignoring honking behind them.

Or perhaps he imagined walking hand in hand with his心儀的女生 along an ancient path bathed in sunset light, watching movies together, escorting her home, and fleeing in a panic under the gaze of her parents who seemed ready to kill. Playing guitar on her windowsill, reciting love poems, or scaling vines to reach her balcony—these were things that characters like Don Quixote or Romeo might do; he didn't necessarily have the courage to do them himself, but when seeing others doing so in media, he would often raise a thumb in admiration.

Today's actions had surpassed what many could achieve at this stage. Su Cen couldn't fathom how people would react if they knew about his situation at Tang Wu's home today—would they sharpen knives towards him or give him a thumbs up, seeing potential in both his courage and luck

Right now, Su Cen felt a bit perplexed. When Tang Wu gave him a slightly flirtatious smile and said she was going to shower, he could only feel the surging blood rushing through his body.

Sometimes, events begin without any premonition, almost naturally. Ever since entering Tang Wu's home, they hadn't discussed when Su Cen should leave.

So, he just stayed there naturally, watching the city news on TV while waiting for the sound of running water from the bathroom to cease.

The contrast between before and after was somewhat eerie, but no one knew that Su Cen's mind was in turmoil at this moment.

To leave or stay—this was a huge dilemma of regret versus non-regret.

Outside the window, stars shone brightly; Xiahai City had stunning starry skies decades ago before they disappeared. If he chose to leave now, he wouldn't see Tang Wu after her shower, wouldn't witness the beauty of "blushing face and green eyebrows, snow-white chest after a new bath", but instead would walk in the garden with its scent of grass, accompanied by Kant's noble stars. Sacrificing his desires for moral righteousness, elevating his soul—how could he not feel elevated morally if he let go of such a girl as Tang Wu So was it regret or no regret

If he stayed and didn't think about morality, he wasn't an ignorant fool like Liu Xiaohui; today's bold advances towards Tang Wu could continue. Would advancing further be a source of regret or non-regret

While watching a cooking program on TV, Su Cen made his decision and went to the phone.

"Mom, I'm at a classmate's house today and won't come back. Tomorrow I'll go straight to school, don't worry."

In this moment, Su Cen made a choice that would let him feel morally elevated instantly, but he was human after all.

From the initial rebirth with reverence towards Tang Wu and a desire to protect her, to gradually realizing his potential in possessing her as he grew stronger, the intense desire to change his fate could no longer be suppressed.

This is like how humans, before the invention of aerodynamics, would watch birds flying in the sky with no sense of wonder or curiosity, but once they discover a theory that allows them to fly like the birds, their desire to transcend gravity and enter another realm becomes an addiction.

At Su Cen's age, he occasionally got called out by Xue Yiyang to stay up all night watching soccer matches at his classmates' houses. This was tacitly allowed by Su Cen's parents as a form of indulgence.

As Su Cen's academic performance surpassed that of this semester and his influence within the family increased, his parents' controlling discipline towards him also loosened considerably. They felt he had his own ideas and self-control and wouldn't interfere with his decision to stay at classmates' houses. This directly led to the removal of the last layer of constraints on Su Cen.

Spending a night at Tang Wu's house wasn't an issue. As Su Cen slowly turned around, he looked towards the three rooms beside the living room. From the faint light and stuffed animals that peeked through, he could tell it was Tang Wu's閨房 (bedroom).

He thought to himself, 'This night can lead to many things,' his heart racing.

The bathroom door creaked open. Steam burst out first as a pink figure stood amidst the misty fog, like an ethereal fairy descending through clouds from countless beautiful dreams.

Tang Wu's long hair was wet and tangled, with her oval face peeking out between strands of hair. Her clear eyes saw Su Cen sitting on the sofa in slight daze, turning red as a cherry blossom.

She wore a pink fluffy pajama dress tied together by a sash that hugged her soft figure perfectly. A hint of pale skin could be seen at the neckline opening, making Su Cen's breath hitch.

He had only ever seen Tang Wu in casual school attire like T-shirts and jeans, with her hair pulled back as she concentrated on solving math problems in class. He also knew her wearing a single-colored coat stepping onto the bus from the platform. But he'd never seen her emerging from the bathroom draped in nothing but a pajama dress, her black wet hair hanging down over her high chest.

Su Cen had an idea that would send his blood racing through every artery: If they were as close before and he held Tang Wu, using his index finger and middle finger to untie the sash of her pajama dress and let it fall off her snowy shoulders, revealing what a heaven-defying scene it would be!

Tang Wu walked gracefully over, casually tidying up her hair with one hand. Her eyes returned to their usual cold gaze.

She glanced at Su Cen and asked, "Aren't you leaving"

Su Cen was slightly stunned for a moment in that instant. The boiling blood seemed to meet resistance.

In the end, was it still his cleverness showing through

But he might have misunderstood. If Tang Wu found out that he had called and didn’t return home, this clever girl would probably quickly figure out what he was up to.

Even with his wisdom from the future, Su Cen felt a bit self-deprecating at this moment. As he hesitantly stood up, Tang Wu let out a "Puh!" laugh and threw a robe she had been hiding in her other hand onto him: "It’s your turn to wash now! This is my dad's clothes; you can wear them for the time being!"

Su Cen was stunned by the brilliance of Tang Wu's smile.

Her face blushed as she looked at Su Cen with a bit of mischief in her eyes: "I originally thought that you were very obedient, but your excuse for your parents just now was quite something."

This little girl had taken a shower, so she hadn’t missed the commotion he made in the living room.

Tang Wu's bathroom was also spacious. The steam from her bath mixed with the fragrance of orchids and drifted faintly through the air. As warm water poured over him, his nerves relaxed involuntarily, washing away all the fatigue he had accumulated throughout the day.

After finishing a quick wash, Su Cen wrapped himself in a robe and stepped out into the pitch-black living room. Only a bit of light shone from Tang Wu’s bedroom door.

Opening the door and entering for the first time, he was greeted by the unique fragrance of her room. The walls were white instead of pink as he had imagined, fitting her personality perfectly. Her bed featured a modern black-and-white design, with Tang Wu lying in the center like an elf goddess.

Su Cen pointed tentatively at the large bed and smiled: "Does this belong to me"

Tang Wu chuckled: "What else Do you want me to kick you out" As she said this, her ears turned red.

Su Cen gently climbed onto the bed; at this moment he admitted his hands were trembling slightly. Lying beside each other, the girl’s chest rising and falling and her breath smelling like orchids made him feel unreal but also incredibly close.

"I was so scared from watching that horror movie today." Tang Wu scooted closer to Su Cen.

Shizune, I love you.

Su Cen cheered inside. The success of "The Ring" had allowed him to move from the living room into Tang Wu’s bedroom.

"Did you become independent at a very young age" Su Cen thought he needed to find some topics to talk about; otherwise, reaching out like An Lu shan would be too aggressive. That was not the most tactful approach.

"It was around the second year of junior high that I got used to sleeping alone, even at home. It feels a bit lonely."

Tang Wu never showed any timid side in front of anyone before. For instance, her fear, helplessness, and loneliness. At some point, Su Can felt a pang of sympathy and reached out to embrace Tang Wu. Despite trembling slightly, she did not resist symbolically.

In memory, there was the solitary woman, the cold and aloof figure; now, however, she curled up like a cat in his arms. Had she been alone at night, falling asleep with such solitude

The warmth of her body seeped through the thin clothing, even allowing him to sense the firmness beneath her soft chest. Su Can's reaction was intense, so much so that Tang Wu could feel it too and trembled more vigorously.

After mustering up courage to lift her head, Tang Wu, with eyes like silk threads, said weakly, "Let’s go to sleep, Su Can." Her heart rate quickened. He mechanically turned off the lights; in the darkness, Tang Wu's eyes became the brightest points.

Su Can felt a bit of dread: everything had happened too naturally. Does this mean something is amiss There should still be many obstacles in her mind at this step. Yet why did she suppress them all and deliberately welcome him despite being terrified

"You can do anything to me." Tang Wu's voice softly came from the darkness.

Too wicked! I like it! Su Can’s blood pressure began to rise.

The resolute, clear eyes in the night suddenly blurred. A humid mist spread across her chest where her forehead pressed against it.

Tang Wu's melodious voice echoed again that quiet night: "But after today, please forget all this and me."

As if struck by a heavy punch to his heart, moved by the sorrow in Tang Wu’s tone, Su Can felt torn apart inside, overwhelmed with pain as tears welled up.

Tang Wu's long legs wrapped around him paused abruptly. Clearly scared by the sudden solemnity of the moment, she feared that Su Can would ask why and lose his mind asking her why—questions so hard to answer.

Because life is far more cruel than imagined, and one day we will inevitably part ways in the long years.

Awhile later, Su Can hugged Tang Wu tightly without asking why or making any more advances but instead said gently, "Don’t worry. I won't do anything to you. But please don’t make me forget you because you are impossible to forget—no matter what it takes."

Since I can take you on as a challenge to Death, I can also confront the capricious Fates with these hands for your sake.ooking away from them, Su Chan smiled at Liu Rui, saying, "It’s not that I’m disrespectful to you, but girls like Zhao Ying and Lu Zhifei are indeed great. However, if one day we were in an ordinary t...
