Chapter 4 Between Friends

  A peaceful life, ordinary yet refreshing, another sunny day, the sun visited the earth early, every household got up early and went about their own business.

  It's mid-August, the sun is still scorching hot. By 9:30 in the morning, it has already started to emit its unique heat, baking the ground and people walking on the road.

  Su Mo held the book in her hand, thinking of the hopeful eyes of her foster mother before she left. She knew that although she had entered a world-renowned university with excellent grades, she was still an object of concern for her foster mother. After all, her personality couldn't let people feel at ease.

  She sighed, opened the book in her hand and brought it to her eyes. The faint scent of books wafted around her nose, making Su Mo Ruo a little dizzy. She sat at home reviewing her lessons with the book in her hands, something she had never experienced before. In the past, even though she had learned knowledge that many graduates from famous schools dared not look at, but the way of education was completely different. Now, she could sit quietly in a room, holding a book, reading plainly, thinking freely and acting freely.

  The door creaked again with a knock, and then a familiar voice sounded.

  Suddenly, she remembered what a few boys and girls had said to her last time, the date from the previous days, she obviously stood them up.

  And these people, apparently also because she let their pigeons go, haven't come to see him in the past few days. In these few days, they must have been discussing how to talk to her. One by one, they are probably even more convinced that she is sulking with them.

  Thoughts swirled in his mind, but he quickly regained composure, put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked out of the room, and from the gap under the door, he saw several serious-looking little faces outside.

  "Creak——" The door of time creaked open, making a "creak-creak" sound due to Su Mo's movements.

  Outside the door, everyone saw Su Mo Ruo coming over to open the door for them, and their eyes all shone with excited light.

  "Old Big." Everyone seemed to have agreed on it, and at the same time, they all called her that.

  They all looked serious, couldn't help but laugh, turned his body sideways, the meaning was very clear, let them all come in and talk again.

  Everyone's face was tanned to some extent by the sun, and men and women had similar skin tones. Due to the scorching sunlight, every forehead was covered with sweat, and some people's noses were also densely covered with sweat. Their necks were adorned with one circle after another of dark golden necklaces.

  The girl was the one who spoke last time, with short shoulder-length hair and a pair of eyes that shone exceptionally bright. With just a slight smile, two small dimples appeared on her cheeks, and her gaze seemed like starlight, making people look away involuntarily.

  She took a step forward, walking closer to Su Mo Ruo, looking at this big sister who had not been seen for some time but had clearly changed a lot. A hint of confusion flashed in her eyes. The big sister in front of her, although having the same face as before, had a completely different temperament. Her gaze was calm and quiet, making people dare not look at her more. Her bold personality had disappeared completely in these two encounters. Glancing at herself and then glancing at Su Mo Ruo, she suddenly seemed to be at a loss.

  "What's wrong?" The girl in front of her had been staring at her, although they hadn't exchanged many words, but from Su Mo Ruo's body, she knew that this girl was very close to her, and the impression she got from their two meetings was also quite good. So at this moment, she couldn't help but reach out her hand and gently stroke the girl's face.

  She cautiously watched as the clean hand approached her dirty face, and the girl couldn't help but take a step back, looking somewhat uncomfortable. "......I...I'm dirty."

  The girl's words were finished, and all the people who followed her over couldn't help but glance at themselves and Su Mo Ruo.

  Su Mo raised an eyebrow and curled his lips slightly, it turned out that was the reason.

  Her actions were beyond everyone's expectations.

  Because she suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed the short-haired girl's hand and wiped it on herself, then raised her head with a calm expression, "You see, they're the same."

  Six simple words made everyone who had been holding various emotions in their hearts suddenly feel relieved, and all the questions were swallowed back into their bellies, with no one asking anything anymore.

  The short-haired girl smiled and showed her true nature, chattering away like a sparrow.

  The girl's name seemed to match her personality, and she was called Que Minger. She came from a wealthy family, but for various reasons, she was sent to live with her grandmother in the countryside. Although she had never told Su Mo Ruo about it, someone as clever as Su Mo Ruo could guess a little bit. And this matter, Que Minger only told one person.

  But this name that looks good and sounds nice is like a sparrow chirping.

  "Ming'er, you've said so much, can't you let us have a word with Lao Da?" Someone on the side started complaining, it was a boy about 16 years old, dark-skinned, revealing a set of pearly white teeth as he smiled, and had quite some potential to be a handsome guy.

  Su Mo just took one glance, and he knew that this young man would definitely grow up to be a heartthrob, making countless girls fall deeply in love with him, and they would have no regrets about it.

  The boy's name is Kong Yifeng, and his family background can be considered upper-class among the common people. His parents are both civil servants, with his mother serving as a village head in a village and his father serving as deputy town head. Although they live in a poor and remote area, both of his parents are university graduates who voluntarily came to this place to serve as local officials.

  Among these people, except for Kong Yihui who was added later, the rest were all childhood friends and even more so, they grew up wearing the same pants with their buttocks exposed.

  And Kong Yihui, initially everyone was because they saw his family background and let him integrate into their group, but over the years, due to Kong Yihui's personality, he truly integrated into their circle.

  These days of contemplation have also made her think clearly about many things. These friends are teachable, genuine, and willing to let go and make sacrifices. Once they understand, they will grasp it.

  A group of people seemed to have returned to the joyful days before the incident, happy laughter continuously coming from inside the room, infecting passersby around them.

  Passersby couldn't help but stop and take a glance at this house that was filled with laughter.
