The Little Childhood Friend in a Female-Dominated World (ChatGPT Translated)

33. Possessiveness

Possessiveness

After Qingming, the days gradually became hotter, and in the blink of an eye, it was already summer.

By the time school was over, it was already evening. The heat that had gathered at noon slowly dissipated, and a few cool breezes floated in the air, without a trace of heat, blowing on the face, feeling very comfortable.

Compared to sitting in a carriage feeling stuffy, many students liked to walk back by themselves in the afternoon, especially with this pleasant little breeze.

The students gathered at the entrance, leaving in groups of three or five. Xu Mu had his school bag slung over his shoulder and was holding something in his arms. He stood by the doorway, not obstructing anyone, occasionally tilting his head to look inside the academy.

He was waiting for Lu Feng.

Sunyao didn't know what Lu Feng had whispered to Xu Mu in the afternoon. After school, the two of them were going to the restroom together.

Lu Feng handed her school bag to Xu Mu, pressing her palm on his head to stop him from following behind her. With her other hand raised, her index finger popped out from her slightly clenched fist, pointing towards the entrance, gesturing with her chin for him to wait for her there for a while.

After a spring season, Lu Feng had grown taller like wheat seedlings watered by spring rain. As for Xu Mu, he was like an ornamental bonsai placed in the room, shedding his heavy winter clothes and putting on refreshing summer clothes. After the "trimming" of the changing seasons, besides his face becoming more delicate and attractive, nothing else had changed.

That's why his head only reached Lu Feng's neck now.

Xu Mu took Lu Feng's school bag and was pushed forward by her shoulder. He muttered as he walked, "Then hurry up."

Seeing his clingy appearance, Sunyao laughed on the side and teased, "Lu Feng, your little cousin is so clingy. When you marry someone in the future, you'll have to set up a bed for him in the outer room, otherwise, he definitely won't agree."

"You're really nosy." Lu Feng glanced at her only after Xu Mu went towards the entrance.

"No, I'm serious." Sunyao hooked her arm around Lu Feng's shoulder and smirked, "Or, why don't you just marry him? After all, you two aren't really cousins."

"Look at Mi Jian, good-looking and with a good personality. Are you really at ease leaving such a clingy little cousin to someone else?" Sunyao shrugged off Lu Feng's arm without caring and said with a hint of sarcasm, "What if Uncle Li made a mistake and didn't choose a good wife for him? If Mi Jian marries into your family and suffers every day, won't you all feel heartbroken?"

Lu Feng thought to herself that Mi Jian liked her so much, who else could she marry besides her? So Sunyao's "what if" didn't really have any possibility and she casually replied, "There's no such 'what if'."

Sunyao paused for a moment, then reacted, "That's true." She understood Lu Feng's words as meaning that before Mi Jian gets married, the other party should first consider whether they can withstand the anger of the Lu family.

The two of them did go to the restroom. What they were whispering about in the afternoon was just something else. However, right after school, the restroom near them was always crowded, so they went to the one in the backyard.

Coming out of the thatched house, not far away is a pond in the academy, where many lotus flowers are raised. In this season, it is the time when "the lotus leaves are boundless green, reflecting the redness of the lotus flowers in the sun."
