Lǐ Lúméi still held Màoxiǎo in high regard as a prince charming and her affection for him did not decrease. She would feel heartache when he accidentally sprained his ankle, and she was also concerned about the direct confrontation with him on the basketball court.

However, occasionally she would recall that afternoon when the timid Màoxiǎo dared not get up from where he fell, and the image of Sū Càn holding a brick and directly questioning her formed a yellowed snapshot in her memory, creating an uncomfortable contrast.

This was beyond what she could comprehend at this stage of her age and experience; she couldn't make any judgment on these events.

In the midst of regret, Team Yú Zijiang from Class 2 Senior Two won the game. Enjoying the looks cast his way by those around him, he walked over to Táng Wǔ in the crowd, extending a hand in an attempt to high-five her.

The girls surrounding Táng Wǔ were instantly riled up and encouraged this move of Yú Zijiang's. But Táng Wǔ hesitated; turning her head, she noticed Sū Càn who was still playing soccer far away and seemed unaware of what was happening here.

Seeing that Táng Wǔ did not react at all to his gesture, Yú Zijiang felt anxious and awkwardly retracted his hand, but he smiled at her. "Next month is the basketball competition for our entire department, will you come to support me"

This was clearly a request for Táng Wǔ's backing and encouragement. It drew cheers from some of the girls around them; others began to envy Táng Wǔ, as this kind of thing was a dream come true for many.

"It depends," replied Táng Wǔ with a slight smile. Yet, since Yú Zijiang's invitation was sincere and it wouldn't make sense or be polite to keep refusing him again and again, she could only reply politely.

“Then we have an agreement!” Yú Zijiang eagerly seized the opportunity and left with a charming laugh without lingering any longer, leaving behind a silhouette that many girls would remember for a long time. Táng Wǔ wanted to explain more but could only hold back her words.

Su Cen could clearly feel the strength of Yue Zijiang. Regardless of any aspect, Yue Zijiang was undoubtedly a strong person. Although Tang Wu had some feelings for him, it only remained at that level. As Yue Zijiang's advances became increasingly aggressive and he indeed possessed many attractive qualities - tall stature, sunny disposition, good academic performance, great sports physique, and even being a basketball player – these were all assets to attract girls in the present stage.

Even if Tang Wu could reject Yue Zijiang once due to her feelings for herself, what about the second time, or the third Su Cen wasn't anyone special to Tang Wu nor shared any memorable experiences with her. How could he possibly restrict how she responds to Yue Zijiang's advances Moreover, was it even possible for him to stop this situation just by openly intervening

Su Cen silently observed everything happening here and realized that he couldn't make a decision and lacked the ability to make decisive choices about his life.

For instance, now when he intervened between Tang Wu and Yue Zijiang, it was merely to prevent Tang Wu from repeating past mistakes. But everyone has their own life path and doesn’t want others to interfere or disturb them.

He wasn't a god; sometimes, his actions even had the tinge of intervening in other people’s lives. From this perspective, he himself was also an egoistic person who interfered with others' destinies for personal peace of mind and self-satisfaction.

The best way to interfere in Tang Wu's emotional life would be to pursue her!

Frankly speaking, Su Cen wasn't someone who disliked Tang Wu; rather, after his rebirth, he almost covered the middle school class monitor, whom he had secretly admired back then, with a layer of holy purity. He hoped to protect and watch over her from afar instead of pursuing her.

The current reality told Su Cen that if he didn't pursue Tang Wu as his goal but rather interfered in her life without it, everything would be unjustified, making him selfish and despicable!

In other words, he had to do so under the identity of a pursuer, take Tang Wu's hand with his own wit, assume responsibility for her fate, and tie her destiny down to change its predetermined course.

Perhaps sometimes it was just an issue of attitude. For instance, in front of him stood the goddess-like class monitor from middle school whom he had once revered, and now they could be so close. In this regard, Su Cen was already content with what he had; he didn't have too many excessive expectations.

Now, he has to make an irrevocable choice. Once this decision is set in his heart, his feelings towards Tang Wu have changed; the suppressed emotions from long ago are now released. Perhaps holding her hand could be the greatest happiness concerning his life.

In comparison to the future where there's more demand than supply, and most people around thirty don't even own a house or a wife, he prefers being like a beggar for rice porridge, chasing after Tang Wu, fulfilling one of his youthful dreams, and ensuring excellent genes for future generations. This is truly something that benefits both the present and future.

Sitting on the flower bed, feeling sweat sliding down from his forehead and neck, Su Can realized he was experiencing anxiety and insecurity after deciding to pursue Tang Wu.

Amidst hormonal fluctuations, Su Can understood this was the love he couldn't dare to dream about in the future, buried on the Mesopotamian plain.

The PE class was during the last two periods and it was afternoon. Hence, most people would leave school halfway through the classes. At the end of the final period, Mao Xiaoshi didn’t leave with his backpack; instead, he walked over to Su Can's side, squatted down next to him. It was autumn, with a bleak atmosphere; he still wore dark sports clothes drenched in sweat.

Taking a sip of mineral water, Mao Xiaoshi turned around and looked at Su Can, hesitated for a moment, then said, "I know you actually think very little of me."

Su Can responded with an “Oh” sound, looking at the Mao Xiaoshi in front of him.

When faced with Su Can's gaze, even someone adored by countless people like Mao Xiaoshi felt towering and unapproachable compared to the much shorter Su Can. He felt regret and disappointment; he still remembered how this person, these eyes, had stared at him when questioning him back then. His heart was afraid, unable to stand up in such a situation. Now recalling it, besides guilt and blame, maybe even getting scolded by Su Can would make him feel better.

However, what he received wasn’t the disdainful gaze he expected, but Su Can's hand patting his shoulder, "Believe me, anyone in that situation would be afraid; everyone exhibits extreme reactions when facing different dangerous situations. The choice is simply different for everyone. Don't blame yourself so much; your strengths don’t lie there. You should be on the basketball court competing fiercely with others, right"

Mao Xiaoshi was momentarily stunned, then chuckled and nodded. On the basketball court just now, his confrontation with Yue Zijiang had put him at a disadvantage, causing many people to sigh in pity and sorrow, further enhancing Yue Zijiang's reputation. Since senior three students have different academic tasks, only junior two and one participate in the high school basketball tournament. In discussions about next month’s basketball game, Yue Zijiang is clearly being pushed into the limelight.

Today was even more glorious for him; he defeated Mao Xiaoshi head-on. This incident would surely spread throughout the grade soon, so when Su Cen mentioned his glory on the court, Mao Xiaoshi felt a sense of vague dejection.

"You can’t beat Yue Zijiang," Su Cen said as he saw Mao Xiaoshi's disappointment.

Mao Xiaoshi was taken aback. He had thought that Su Cen might say something like "you were just having an off day" to comfort him, but instead, the straightforwardness of his words immediately plunged Mao’s confidence into a bottomless pit.

After Mao Xiaoshi's fleeting hope faded in his eyes, Su Cen smiled. “You can’t beat him not because your skills are insufficient, but because you fear him from the depths of your heart... Sometimes... What if you go all out!”

That’s right, go all out!

Mao Xiaoshi's gaze turned blank.

Just like Su Cen standing before him on that slope bathed in the warm afternoon sun, brandishing a brick and striking with authority...

To go all out... what’s wrong with that!

Alas, life charges forward fiercely without giving anyone a chance to regret or start over.hildhood. You can say that you don’t know Director Zong or Chief Engineer Zhao sent down from the parent company, but how could you say that you don’t know Su Licheng We’ve known each other for a long...
