A bird flew across the lake, causing ripples on its surface, and then landed gracefully on the other side.

Sitting on a stone bench, Ye Jian witnessed this beautiful scene. Leisurely, he lifted his head, enjoying the gentle breeze on Swan Lake, covering his face with a book to block the sunlight spreading through the willow foliage. There was nothing but calmness in his mind.

"You Jian?"

A voice breaks the silence. Ye Jian did not answer. He closed his eyes, refusing to be disturbed.

Gao Yiyang used to be a No.1 Provincial High School student. This time, he came back here to accompany Ye Ying.

As they walked by the lake, they saw someone sitting casually under a willow tree. The slim figure was also a sight within the beautiful landscape.

Biting her lower lip calmly, Ye Ying did not say a word. He was waiting for a reaction from Gao Yiyang.

“We're going to the canteen. Want to join us?” Perhaps Gao Yiyang had gotten used to Ye Jian's indifferent attitude. Traces of despair flashed in his eyes. Again, he spoke clearly, “Kafeteria is a bit far away. Let's go there together.”

It would be impolite if he did not respond, although he did not mind being a little rude in front of him.

Removing the thick and heavy classic British clothes blocking the sunlight, he opened his pitch-black eyes, which displayed a faint indifferent look. "Oh, I know how to go there." He patted the hardcover of the book. “You go first. I need to read for a moment. ”

"Reading?" Ye Ying giggled as if he had heard some kind of joke. Looking at that English classic, he said, "I wonder if you can understand it."

Based on Hemingway's experiences in the army, the book describes a beautiful tragedy that is primarily about war and love.

“There are many high-quality collections in SMP library No.1 Province. And you're reading the original edition of A Farewell to Arms. The more you read, the more you can improve your English.” Gao Yiyang, who could speak standard American English, did not doubt whether Ye Jian could understand the book. He has witnessed his level of English proficiency on the English exam last time.

Ye Ying intended to humiliate Ye Jian. Instead, Gao Yiyang gave his practical advice. Uncomfortable, Ye Ying smiled and said, “Then you should join us. If you have any questions, you can consult Gao Yiyang, right?”

“Ye Jian, we are from the same school. Is it so hard for you to have dinner with us in the cafeteria and discuss the exam tomorrow?”

"It wasn't hard. I just don't want to join you.” They're not his friends. What else do they expect from him? Smiling at Ye Ying, whose words were sarcastic, Ye Jian said slowly, “In addition, we all know that we have nothing to talk about. Why should we pretend?”

“Sorry for being so outspoken. Unlike Ye Ying who likes to pretend that everything is fine, I speak my mind honestly.” How she wished she could label "hypocritical" on Ye Ying's forehead.

Unfortunately, if he ate in the cafeteria with two people he hated, he would spit out his food while eating it.

"You Jian!" Enraged, Ye Ying yelled at Ye Jian in a low voice for mocking him as a hypocrite. Confused, he tilted his head to look at the boy beside him.

When he saw that Gao Yiyang was also unhappy, he suppressed his panic. Smiling, he said, “Then we can't be friends anymore. Remember, Ye Jian, it is you who have rejected our friendship. Next time, you better explain this to someone else! ”

To this day, whenever he recalled what School Head Chen had said about him, he would be furious!
