In the hot July campus, alongside the heat, there was the melancholy of graduation season, like a spring of water drenching the senior students, suffusing them with a sense of sadness from the inside out.
"From the same hometown?"
Lin Baici was a bit surprised and probed, "Is it a girl?"
If it was a guy, Li Wei wouldn't hide it from him; if it was a girl, that's why he's embarrassed to say.
"Uh!"
Li Wei scratched his head awkwardly and explained, "It's through my work-study program. I found her phone while cleaning classrooms in the evening, and then I got to know her!"
"You like her?"
Lin Baici spoke frankly.
"Ah?"
Li Wei was taken aback and quickly denied, "No! No!"
"So you're interested in her then?"
Lin Baici laughed, "Why are you embarrassed to say it?"
