He seemed to see right through Su Jinning's thoughts, stepped forward, placed his hand on her shoulder, and gently squeezed it. "We've all seen your efforts. What she says is her business. As long as you have a clear conscience, that's enough."
“Yeah, Ning-ge, you don’t need to worry about her. Next time, we’ll get into Class A and show her.” Chen Hang raised an eyebrow.
Su Jinning followed the hand on her shoulder and looked over, meeting Shen Moyu's gentle eyes, then looked at her teachers and friends one by one.
He suddenly felt relieved and smiled shyly: "Okay."
Jin Shuoshuo nodded, then turned to Shen Moyu with a weary expression and pressed his finger hard on Shen Moyu's forehead: "And you, what are you doing going in and causing trouble!"
Shen Moyu blinked awkwardly, "I'm just angry."
"Who can be more angry? Do you think I can't handle it? You even openly talked back to her. Do you still want to stay in Class 8?" Jin Shuoshuo was very annoyed by his impulsiveness.
Shen Moyu remained calm, crossing her arms and saying, "I don't care, she can't do anything to me."
"You little brat!" Jin Shuoshuo raised his hand, but in the end, he couldn't bring himself to hit him.
Su Jinning grinned from ear to ear and put her arm around his shoulder: "Including the time you rashly returned to Class 8, these are the two great feats of a top student, right?"
Shen Moyu suddenly felt that her pity for him was unnecessary, and impatiently pushed him away: "Get lost."
The group chatted and laughed all the way out the door, then split up and left in several groups.
Su Jinning clung to Shen Moyu's neck the whole way, unwilling to let go, and the sweltering heat of the summer quickly enveloped her.
Shen Moyu pushed him helplessly: "Get away, it's hot."
Su Jinning did not answer him, but hugged him even tighter.
"A top student." Su Jinning suddenly laughed, thinking about the silly things he had done these past two days: "I said, how come someone as calm as you becomes so impulsive when it comes to my affairs?"
He spoke softly, and I gently leaned close to his ear, sending a shiver down my spine.
Shen Moyu's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously flinched: "Why do you ask so many questions?"
"Is it because..." Su Jinning leaned closer again mysteriously, "that you like me too much?"
Shen Moyu was amused and gently pinched his cheek.
"You already know, why ask?"

Chapter 65 Cotton Candy
Saturday's weather was as muggy as ever. Chen Hang arrived at the station early, looking around with his phone in hand. The agreed time was 11:00, but it was almost 11:30, and he still hadn't seen any of his good buddies.
"Damn, why is it so slow?" He shoved his phone into his bag and kicked the luggage beside him listlessly.
At that moment, as if he had suddenly remembered something, he quickly unzipped his backpack, rummaged through it, and looked around like a thief stealing in broad daylight.
Chen Hang took out the item; it was a delicate little gift box decorated with a pink satin ribbon bow. He lovingly stroked it for a while, finally feeling relieved: "I was so scared, thank goodness I brought it."
He chuckled softly, as if lost in thought.
He carefully opened the gift box, and inside lay a sparkling women's diamond necklace.
"Hey!"
"Holy crap!"
Chen Hang was startled by Su Jinning's sudden appearance and almost fell off the bench. Still shaken, he looked at him and said, "Are you crazy?!"
Su Jinning chuckled, turned around and sat down, looking at the necklace he was holding so preciously, and asked in surprise, "Damn, a limited edition? How did you get it?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Hang raised his eyebrows smugly and couldn't help but boast, "I searched every jewelry store in Shanghai for this necklace, and it wasn't easy to get it."
After saying that, he gently touched the diamond necklace that shimmered softly in the sunlight.
"Damn." Su Jinning rolled her eyes, looking at his infatuated expression and couldn't help but complain, "Making such a big fuss over a simple confession, bringing us all here to go hiking with you, are you bored?"
But Chen Hang wouldn't listen to him at all; he was too busy happily reminiscing about his "perfect" confession plan.
Su Jinning slapped him on the back of the neck, trying to bring her brother, who was immersed in love, back to shore.
"Damn, what are you doing!" Chen Hang straightened his baseball cap and said with a smug look, "You can't understand my kind of romance?"
Su Jinning gave a cold laugh: "Your romance is confessing your love and taking a girl hiking?"
Chen Hang: "..."
Su Jinning continued her aggressive questioning: "Taking someone hiking in temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius, enduring mosquito bites, and then confessing your feelings to them while you're covered in sweat and still thinking it's all wonderful."
Chen Hang quickly put the necklace away and stuffed it into his backpack, then defiantly pulled out his phone to show him: "There will be a shooting star at eight o'clock tonight, and I'm planning to... confess my feelings to her at that time."
Su Jinning squinted at the contents of his phone, then looked up at him again, patting his shoulder with a hint of admiration: "With such a big reputation, even the heavens have decided to help you this time?"
He put his arm around Chen Hang's shoulder with a hint of relief, then asked him somewhat seriously, "But you should think carefully about whether it's too early. If the outcome isn't what you hoped for, you might not even be able to remain friends."
After listening, Chen Hang's expression seemed to change slightly. He lowered his head, fiddling with his fingers, and said softly, "Brother Ning, you know what it's like to have a crush, right?"
Su Jinning was taken aback when he met Chen Hang's serious gaze, not expecting Chen Hang to ask a question in return.
"I understand." Su Jinning's mind flashed with Shen Moyu's face.
Chen Hang pursed his lips and nodded, staring at his backpack: "I think she probably has feelings for me. Even if she doesn't now, I can still try." As he spoke, he looked up at the sky.
