The relationship between Dong Chaoming and Yu Chu started with their parents. Since then, Dong Chaoming has lived in Yu Chu’s first-place shadow for several years. Having been classmates for six years, he thought that during high school, he will finally be free. But what he didn’t expect that the two families will enroll them both to Yacheng. So, he gritted his teeth and continued to be classmates as there was no where left to run.
They see each other at school, at home, and even during tutoring class.
Dong Chaoming and Yu Chu really disliked each other in this life.
The two of them did not sit across from the table, fearing that they could not swallow the food.
The two parents are in harmony. The two children immersed themselves in chewing. Only four parents were communicating during the dinner.
"Zhihan, how is your sister?"
Gu Hui asked.
Su Zhihan’s sister was mentioned and she relaxed.
"She has recovered well recently. She has tried to go out and her sleep quality has also improved a lot. Thanks to Dr. Yu, the treatment is much better than before."
Aunt Su suddenly arrived in Yu family’s house that year. She came to Yu Chu’s father and asked him to take a look at her sister. Dong Chaoming’s aunt, Su Zhihan’s younger sister, was staying at the Dong family’s house. Su Zhihan’s younger sister has a delicate mind. She noticed that her younger sister seemed to be in a bad mental state, so she cautiously invited Yu Chu’s father. The psychological report found out that her younger sister is suffering from anxiety disorder. Yu Haohang is a well-known psychiatrist in Wanzhou District, and the fees were expensive. But because the two mothers have a good relationship, they did not ask for the fee, and tried their best for treatment for more than a year or two. Now, it seems like the situation is better.

Yu Haohang had a humble expression,
"As long as the treatment is carried out on time, the previous persistent anxiety will no longer occur."
The Yu family has helped his wife so much, and Dong Chenlei can no longer put on the prestige of a barrister before and he followed his wife to visit Yu's family. Even though he was not active in inviting Yu family to eat, they all quietly participated. When Yu Chu wants to enter another city, he will let his son do the same.

The two families are much closer than when there were only two women in contact before, and they even went to each other’s home to have dinner every half a month. It turned out to be Saturday and then changed to Friday, because there is no late self-study at Yacheng High School on Friday and they can come back earlier.
After dinner, the two children cleaned up the dishes. There were only two of them in the kitchen. Dong Chaoming looked bad and was keen to taunt her. Today’s meal was longer than expected. Yu Chu was worried about the unfinished derivative problems. She ignored everything and concentrated on cleaning the dishes. Until the moment before sending the three Dongs out, Dong Chaoming also provoke her childishly like a one-man show.
Dong Chenlei couldn’t help but discipline his son when they left the Yu family.
"What’s the matter with you. You play childish tricks every time. What would the Yu family think of you? If you don’t get good grades, stay quiet. When will you be like Yu Chu?”
“Hmm.” Dong Chaoming was scolded silently, and was quietly held by his mother, and followed his father back to Dong's house.
When the two of them were being tutored the next day, Dong Chaoming was quite serious. With a straight face, Dong Chaoming's bangs all combed, and Yu Chu was able to see his many wonderful expressions. She thought his face was magical, and when he lowered her head to look at the paper, he was quite gentle, and she changed his face instantly when he raised his head to meet hers.
This is not bad, Yu Chu is happy.
The fifth class on Monday is geography. Yu Chu has a high enthusiasm for geography. When the class is over, she actively asked the teacher two questions, and suddenly remembered that it was a lunch break, so she was busy apologizing to the teacher and delayed the teacher’s rest time. The geography teacher has always loved this studious student, and he waved his hand and told Yu Chu to go to lunch.
Yu Chu went back and wrote down her thoughts before going to the cafeteria. It was too late and the cafeteria was full. She felt that it was a waste of time, so she simply went to the supermarket and bought rice balls to satisfy her belly.
Yu Chu put on headphones, listening to English in her ears, and sat on a bench under the shade of a tree. Yu Chu rarely lingered outside during lunch break, and suddenly saw a familiar figure jumping in the green wire fence not far away.
The fluffy hair was bound by a hair tie, and the white sleeveless shirt completely exposed both arms. It was Yu Chu’s first time being a spectator in a basketball game. She remembered that Dong Chaoming was a small bamboo pole when he was a child, with both arms and legs that was skinny with no muscles. This impression stayed in Yu Chu's mind for a long time. To this day, she intuitively caught a glimpse of his two naked arms, with obvious muscle lines, hidden all the way up in the fabric of his shoulders and neck.

Yu Chu was really surprised.
Dong Chaoming seems to have quietly changed a lot.
Yu Chu wanted to observe again, but unfortunately, she was not the only audience watching Dong Chaoming. She was sitting quietly here, suddenly unplugging one of her earphones with one hand, Yu Chu turned her head abruptly holding the rice ball.
It's Yu Zhuyue.
Yu Chu looked at her strangely, what is she doing?
Yu Zhuyue sat down beside Yu Chu with tilted head and a smile on her face, "You can listen to learning files during lunch break, you really work hard."
So what?
Yu Chu didn't know what she meant by coming, and raised her eyebrows.
Yu Zhuyue turned her head and stared at the white figure on the court, pretending to be joking, "I thought you came to watch Chaoming play."
She and Dong Chaoming didn't say a few words either at Dong's house or at school. Then, Yu Zhuyue's tone made Yu Chu frown, and spit out two words stiffly, "No."
Yu Zhuyue listened to Yu Chu's denial, but her smile stopped, facing the distance, saying, "Really? I thought you like Dong Chaoming. I am worried that you will be sad."
The noon sun passed through the gap between the camphor leaves above the head, casting a faint shadow. The image, against Yu Zhuyue's frosty face, reminded Yu Chu suddenly of the thick layer of ice on the wall of the freezer when she went to the supermarket and the cold marbles lined by the school window. There was a bit of coolness in the summer.
The freezer spoke, her voice chilly, like a cold arrow, "After all, Dong Chaoming doesn't like you very much."
Yu Chu was stunned.
