Friday, April 20.

This day was Black Cat's birthday, but Chu Xuan still didn't meet Black Cat deliberately avoiding him in school all day.

On the way to school in the morning, rest during class, lunch break... Black cats are like real cats, and they don’t know where to hide secretly after class.

Although the school is not big, it is definitely not small, not to mention that the cats were originally experts of "hide and seek", so it is natural that Chu Xuan could not find it.

And... it was not like those bad-hearted girls said that the black cat has been hiding in the girls' toilet, right? Chu Xuan had no way to find that place.

Although according to the "convention" in the past year, after school on Friday, Chu Xuan should be able to find a black cat who works in an old bookstore...

But after school a few days ago, Heimao even said she was sick from working in other old bookstores. The boss asked Chu Xuan about her recent situation with concern, which really made people think that she would be an exception today.

“…”

So, before the class meeting was over before school, Chu Xuan blocked the door of Black Cat's class in advance.

"Is there anything wrong?"

When she whispered and watched her and Chu Xuan's classmates at the door all left, only today's duty student was left, the black cat, who had disappeared immediately after school, walked out of the classroom door with her schoolbag, and asked Chu Xuan, who was still waiting there motionlessly, in a very cold tone.

"I have something to say to you, go to the back of the teaching building."

Chu Xuan pushed down the reflective glasses and replied calmly.

The black cat did not respond at all, just stared at the ground indifferently, but when Chu Xuan turned around and walked out, she followed silently.

Perhaps Black Cat admits to the gambling and loses like when he is defeated by Chu Xuan in the first battle at the game center. Since Chu Xuan has successfully found her this time, she will not be ugly and will still have to wait for an opportunity to cheat under the other party's nose.

"Today is your birthday."

Behind the empty teaching building, Chu Xuan turned his head and stared at the black cat who stopped three meters away from him with a expressionless face for a while, then pushed down his reflective glasses.

"Happy birthday, black cat... Wujiu Luli.

This is a birthday gift for you, and it is also my apology, I'm sorry."

Chu Xuan used his unchanging and plain voice to send birthday wishes to the black cat, as well as birthday gifts exquisitely wrapped with black gift wrapping paper and purple ribbons.

"Thanks.

But this is just my birthday when I was a human being, not the day when my soul descended on this world.

As for the apology... you are not wrong at all, why do you apologize to me?"

The black cat was carrying the schoolbag forward with both hands, but just said thanks with a cold face, but did not mean to reach out to receive the birthday gift presented by Chu Xuan with both hands.

“…Goodbye to senior.”

Perhaps because he felt that everything he should say had been finished, the black cat bowed to Chu Xuan very politely, then turned around and left in an extremely calm manner.

After school that day, Chu Xuan, who returned home, took the gift to the old bookstore where Heimao worked, and Heimao did not come as a result of illness.

After this weekend passed, next Monday, Chu Xuan, who was walking on the way to school, received many sympathetic sights from girls for some reason.

"Chu, Chu Xuan?"

Behind him, Kyosuke and Manashi called him carefully.

"Good morning."

Chu Xuan turned his head expressionlessly, stopped and greeted the old couple lightly.

"Good morning." X2

The two of them replied in a very coquettish manner, and their expressions... were a bit strange.

"Hey... Chu Xuan, are you... okay?"

After silently holding his breath and walking side by side with Chu Xuan for more than ten meters, Kyosuke immediately couldn't hold it in and asked hesitantly.

"I'm fine, what's going on?"

Chu Xuan turned his head inexplicably and replied in a very normal way with a signature stick-reading voice, but Kyosuke's expression seemed to be saying "How could you be fine?"

"Well, that... although it's not that we want to gossip...but...

I heard that after school on Friday, you proposed to the black cat... Miss, got married, but was rejected...

So we want to comfort you..."

Manashi looked up at Chu Xuan's face with his eyes, and explained to Chu Xuan in such a gentle voice for the first time.

Mana, who looks like this, usually only appears in front of "Xiao Kyo". It is conceivable that in her mind, Chu Xuan is so pitiful now...

"Chu Xuan... I'm so sorry. I've been worrying about myself all this time, so I ignored you, my friend...

I didn't know until Manashi told me just now..."

Kyosuke frowned tightly, patted Chu Xuan on the shoulder with a painful expression, as if, "I understand, don't say anything."

"I, I just heard someone say it last night, and I definitely didn't mean to gossip!

Although I knew the situation at that time should not be a marriage proposal, I always felt that no matter what, as a friend, at this time...

Sorry?"

Manashi looked like he had done something wrong and asked tentatively as he stared at Chu Xuan's face.

"It doesn't matter. Although it is somewhat different from the facts, the situation at that time is basically not wrong."

Chu Xuan said disrespectfully, which made the two of them feel a little relieved.

Just as Kyosuke and Manashi were about to say something to comfort, Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly, staring at them with a burning look and asked:

"So, do you know who else knows about this?"

Faced with Chu Xuan's plain expression that seemed to be extremely cold, Kyosuke and Manashi couldn't help but shivered, but this was probably just a psychological effect.

Manashi looked at Chu Xuan's face carefully and said to him hesitantly:

"That... don't be angry...

I heard...it seems like the whole school has spread..."

"I see."

Chu Xuan nodded expressionlessly, and his glasses glanced around with reflection.

Sure enough, when he looked over, the crowds of whispering around him would subconsciously dodge his sight, and the expressions on their faces were quite complex and diverse, sympathetic, gloating, relieved, and vengeful pleasure...

It seems that after school that day, one or several "minded people" secretly stayed behind him and Hei Mao went to one of the traditional "confession holy places" of the school behind the teaching building, witnessing the scene of Hei Mao rejecting gifts and spreading the incident.
