The days passed leisurely, and three years in Shenzhen went by especially fast.
Chen Lu followed in Su Xiaoxi's footsteps on the way home from school.
The two walked one behind the other, facing the sunset, their shadows stretched long.
During these three years, Chen Lu wasn't timid; he would bravely stand in front of Su Xiaoxi like a tough guy.
He shielded her from all the sneers and ridicule, and also took on all her grievances.
Three years of ordinary days allowed him to gradually blend into normalcy and return to the ordinary.
He seemed to forget that he was born into a wealthy family and he once fantasized that if he wasn't from a rich family, would his mother still strongly oppose him being friends with Su Xiaoxi?
Ninth grade at this age is the start of adolescence and also the budding period of emotions.
Chen Lu, like when he was a child, only liked to play with Su Xiaoxi.
