Hu Jiazeng had been outside all along.
Watching that room door close, his mind suddenly recalled the bits and pieces from school days spent with Li Rong.
Back then, to save time, he stayed on campus. One evening, a group in their dorm discussed which girl in class was the most beautiful as they lay in bed.
When it was his turn, he said instinctively, "Li Rong."
Everyone laughed at the time.
Li Rong had a bit of baby fat on her face back then; her looks weren't considered the prettiest, especially with the presence of someone like Xu Qiaoqiao, who always made Li Rong seem dim and overshadowed.
Actually, many people in the class secretly admired Xu Qiaoqiao then.
But Hu Jiazeng thought of that day...
Because of her status as an orphan, Xu Qiaoqiao acted unusually at school, somewhat solitary, with only Li Rong as a good friend. Another pretty girl in the class resented Xu Qiaoqiao slightly because the boys had ranked her as the most beautiful in class.
