Gu Pei walked on the campus of the high school he once attended.

The playground of his alma mater was renovated, a new teaching building was built, and the building changed more or less.

Gu Pei was standing on the playground. There were students playing basketball. The uppers of their shoes made a harsh sound as they rubbed against the ground. Teenagers were sweating profusely on the basketball court.

He suddenly remembered the past.

After school, I always liked to grab the basketball court with my friends and play ball with classmates from other grades.

In sports such as basketball, being tall has an advantage. Gu Pei is taller and other students are willing to play in a team with him.

Su Mingran was a head shorter than Gu Pei and had no inherent advantage, so he was always a substitute.

But Gu Pei knew that Su Mingran had very strong endurance and no one could beat him seriously. He was very good at seizing opportunities and was a very eye-catching striker.

At that time, Su Mingran often sat under the tree, helping other students look at things, and his eyes would follow Gu Pei from time to time.

When Gu Pei got tired of playing, someone else went up. Su Mingran could have gone up for him, but she stayed aside to talk to him.

"Are you in a bad mood lately?"

Su Mingran handed Gu Pei a bottle of water. Gu Pei thought the water was not ice cold enough, so he changed it to a colder bottle.

Su Mingran: "Don't drink ice after strenuous exercise."

Gu Pei didn't care, unscrewed the bottle cap and drank it in one breath.

Su Mingran wanted to say something more, but Gu Pei said impatiently: "Can you please stop bothering me?"

Sure enough, Su Mingran stopped talking.

At that time, the conflicts between Gu Pei and his family were getting bigger and bigger, and he was in a very bad mood. He would almost complain when someone was unhappy, and he often had conflicts with other people.

He knew that Su Mingran would not be angry with him, so his attitude towards Su Mingran had always been very bad.

Later, his family asked him to stay away from Su Mingran, which he did.

Su Mingran came to him several times and opened her mouth to speak to him, but Gu Pei dodged him and refused to tell him the reason.

One time Su Mingran stopped him and said, "Gu Pei, if you don't want to talk, I can send you a letter. You write it down and hand it to me, okay? I'm very worried about you."

Ignored by him again.

The laughter on the playground interrupted Gu Pei's memories. He walked to a place where the sun was dazzling, and soon a dark cloud blocked it.

This was not the only time he ignored Su Mingran, Gu Pei thought sadly, covering his heart.

In his heart, he acquiesced that Su Mingran was his good friend, but relying on Su Mingran's tolerance for him, he ignored Su Mingran's feelings again and again, so that he was deceived by Qi Xinghe.

This clumsy trick, with more questions and doubts, Qi Xinghe will definitely reveal his true colors. If he could believe Su Mingran earlier, if he could listen patiently to what Su Mingran said earlier, would everything be different?

The sky was getting dark and it looked like it was going to rain. The students on the playground left one after another, but Gu Pei still stood there.

However, after a while, the rain gradually fell and hit Gu Pei's body. He seemed to be receiving some kind of punishment. He was soaked without shelter from the rain, and soon his whole body was soaked.
