Shen Nan remembered.

On that Christmas Eve, he accidentally witnessed the scene where Shao Bei was confessed to. It was awkward and he didn't know what to do, his body reacting faster than his mind. By the time he processed this fact, he had already left the mountain.

The next day, rumors spread about Sicheng receiving affection from his senior schoolmate. The outcome was uncertain as he learned from Ningshulan that Sicheng did not accept her feelings.

That whole week, he was completely absent-minded, constantly thinking about Shaobei being in love. He felt discontented but couldn't figure out why. He couldn't take it out on anyone else, so he bottled it up inside, almost causing internal injury from the pent-up frustration.

When Friday finally arrived and he and Shao Bei headed home together, he teased Shao Bei along the way. Shao Bei furrowed her brows and said, "I have nothing to do with her, don't speak nonsense."

Shen Nan didn't believe it. He expressed that it was impossible for Shao Bei, who was gentle and virtuous, to not be attractive to his senior sister. He also wondered if Shao Bei was annoyed by the noise and replied with a sentence, "I prefer someone like Shu Lan."

Shen Nan: "......"

He became dumbfounded in an instant.

This incident caused him to never actively seek out Shao Bei again, and it also led to him and Ning Shulan growing further apart in the years that followed.

However, now, what is presented in the diary is completely different.

At the age of seventeen, Shen Nan still witnessed his senior sister's confession and embrace towards Shao Bei. However, this time he didn't run away and instead, he saw Shao Bei push away his senior sister.

The senior sister has a delicate and gentle demeanor. Her eyes turned slightly red after being rejected, and she pitifully asked Shao Bei why.

Shaobei lowered his gaze and dodged.

In this situation, no matter if Shao Bei says, "We are not suitable" or "I don't want to date, I just want to focus on studying," both can be acceptable excuses. Unfortunately, he hasn't come up with an excuse yet, so he directly went up to her.

Carrying an apple packaged in a gift box, Shen Nan rushed up and firmly held onto Shao Bei's arm, smiling mischievously at his senior sister as she said, "Sorry, Senior Sister, he's already taken."

The senior sister had a confused expression on her face.

The young man excitedly said, "Let me introduce myself. I am Shen Nan, Shaobei's boyfriend."

Senior Sister: "......"

Shao Bei: "......"

Shen Nan closed the diary with a snap.

Dived headfirst into the pillow.

Shen Nan stared wide-eyed, clutching the corner of his blanket, with the pounding sound of his own heartbeat echoing in his ears. In his heart, he shouted:

This...how...is...it...possible!

Shao Bei said that he was the one who confessed first, and surprisingly, he wasn't lying to him!

Did he have his brain eaten by a pig?!

After a while, Shen Nan finally calmed down. He rolled over and lay on his back, staring blankly at the ceiling.

This reincarnation, is it really a parallel world? In my previous life, I would never have gone up to a girl I didn't know and tell her that I was Shao Bei's boyfriend. That's just plain stupid!

What's more important is that Shao Bei actually agreed to it!

Has Shao Bei gone brain-dead too?!

He fell asleep in a state of excitement.

In the dream, there is a lush banyan tree, and as far as the eye can see, there is an endless grassland, with vague bursts of colorful flowers emerging from the emerald green.

He stood here, about the width of a street away, standing Shao Bei.

Shao Bei was wearing a fitted short-sleeved shirt, the dark fabric clinging to his skin, accentuating his slender teenage figure. With a slim waist and long legs, his cropped pants revealed his ankles as he leaned down to kiss a nearby vibrant red flower.

In the dream, the sunlight was sparkling. Golden specks adorned Shaobei's eyelashes, leaving Shen Nan awe-struck in the dream.

Shao Beiqian's light-colored lips looked soft. He remained silent, quietly gazing at Shen Nan, his clear pupils reflecting Shen Nan's countenance.

Shen Nan felt a bit embarrassed, just as shy as a little girl. He first evaded Shao Bei's gaze, then glanced over and finally mustered up the courage. He cupped his hands to his mouth, making a megaphone shape, and shouted, "Shao Bei!"

Shao Bei smiled at him.

A blush appeared on Shen Nan's face as he uttered, "Shao Bei! I challenge you!"

Shaobei's lips curled up slightly as he asked, "Who do you like?"

"Shao Bei!"

"Who likes Shao Bei?"

"Shen Nan!"

Shaobei took step by step, approaching Shen Nan within the confession. After Shen Nan uttered his own name, the distance between them had already become so close that they could feel each other's breath.

Shao Bei reached out and lifted his chin. He looked at Shen Nan's blushing cheeks and gently brushed his fingertips across the corner of his lips.

Shen Nan stared at him foolishly and idiotically.

The spring breeze started, and the banyan tree rustled as it played the wedding march. The flower petals danced in the air, swirling around the young figure on the lawn.

Shao Bei lowered his head.

The vivid red petals conveniently covered their lips.

Shen Nan abruptly woke up.

His heart was still beating rapidly. Shen Nan slowed down for a while before finally calming down. He rested his arm on his forehead and took a deep breath after a moment.

Checking the time, it was five-thirty in the morning.

He definitely had this absurd dream because yesterday everyone brainwashed him into believing that he had an affair with Shao Bei!

There's no way I'm shorter than Shao Bei by that much!

There was no need for Shaobei to lower his head when the two of them kissed!

No, no, no, that's not the main point at all!

Shen Nan slapped himself on the head, almost going crazy.

After struggling with himself for a while, he finally made a decision.
