Who would've thought?

Life would always throw unexpected curveballs at you. It would put you down while you were happy and proud, but also give you a surprise while you were desperate and sad.

Towards Zhen Yuanbai, it was clearly the latter.

No wonder his parents hadn't received his teacher's call. No wonder Shi Bufan hadn't complained to the teacher.

He lost his memory!

This was probably the second piece of good news Zhen Yuanbai had heard since started high school. The last one was when his parents agreed to change his name.

Shi Bufan forgot how he fell so he naturally wouldn't beat him up. Zhen Yuanbai slowly relaxed and calmed down his stiff body. Although he tried his best to suppress his happiness, one could still see the ecstasy in his eyes.

He nodded while looking at Shi Bufan's questioning gaze. His heart thumped rapidly and he stressed seriously, "It's true. I'm really your best friend."

He rubbed his fingers up and down the straps of the backpack on the two sides of his chest. He felt uneasy for lying to him, but also sympathetic and guilty towards Shi Bufan. In the end, it was his fault that Shi Bufan became like this. Even though he didn't dare to admit his fault, he should do something for him no matter what.

He thought about it and slightly softened his tone. "What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."

Shi Bufan looked at him for a while and slowly said, "Since you're my best friend, you should know what I like to eat."

Zhen Yuanbai's heart thumped and Shi Bufan's gaze made him feel as if he had seen through him. He subconsciously chuckled. Who knows what you like to eat? However, he directly said, "Then I'll buy what you usually eat."

Shi Bufan didn't answer and Zhen Yuanbai pretended to stay calm. As soon as he walked out the door, he held his hand over his miserable heart.

Hopefully, Shi Bufan would maintain his memory loss until the college entrance exam was over. That way, even if he knew that he had injured and lied to him, he wouldn't be able to find him.

Harboring this beautiful expectation, he happily got out of the elevator and went to a nearby cafe.

It was near the hospital so there were stores that sold almost everything. Zhen Yuanbai bought himself a glass of soy milk along with an egg pancake. He racked his brains, unable to think of what Shi Bufan would usually like to eat.

This was normal. After all, he had never eaten with Shi Bufan before. Normally, he hadn't seen him eat breakfast in the classroom either. Though, it was common to see him sleeping.

Zhen Yuanbai satisfied his stomach and pondered. In the end, he decided to buy one of each: soy milk, deep-fried breadstick, egg , rice congee made with red beans, lotus seeds, longan, red dates, nuts, and noodles made of the three fresh ingredients. Then, he brought all the food back to Shi Bufan's room.

The doctor said that the teacher wasn't here yet and Zhen Yuanbai silently let out a sigh of relief. He was really scared of the teacher questioning why he was here. After all, it wasn't like he had a good relationship with him. He didn't even know him.

He placed the food on the table and Shi Bufan finally broke away from his arrogant-idler posture. He slowly sat up straight and looked at the "sumptuous" breakfast in the plastic bag. He looked at him questioningly, "I normally like to eat all of this?"

"Yes." Zhen Yuanbai went on randomly, "You clearly have to eat a lot more than others, seeing how tall you are compared to the rest."

Shi Bufan looked over.
