That afternoon, Xia Yuluo did not see him again until the following Monday when she finally encountered Fang Yuzhe in the hallway. His right wrist was in a splint, apparently with a bone injury.
“Are you okay?” Yuluo, with unexpected courage, actually dared to speak to him proactively.
Fang Yuzhe paused for a moment, then smiled slightly, “It’s nothing, just a dislocation.” His attitude was completely different from before, and Xia Yuluo breathed a sigh of relief, realizing she had overthought things.
Although she could not watch him play ball for a long time, knowing that Fang Yuzhe did not dislike her made her happy.
Xia Yuluo’s life continued as usual, studying and working. Then she took it upon herself to do something: she made duplicate notes for every subject.
Fang Yuzhe was injured in his right hand and probably couldn’t write.
She persisted in taking notes for a week, then prepared to give them to him on Friday evening, just in case he needed to review. She knew Fang Yuzhe was in Class One and on Friday evening, she put notes from five subjects in a plastic bag and went to his class.
“Classmate, could you please give these to Fang Yuzhe?” Yuluo, feeling embarrassed to give them directly, wanted someone to help deliver them. She included a note inside.
The male student she asked looked at her, then at the items, “What’s in it for me?”
Yuluo was stumped. Did helping with such a small task require a reward? While she was unsure how to respond, Fang Yuzhe himself walked out.
Xia Yuluo had originally wanted to discreetly give the notes to Fang Yuzhe, but that male student was negotiating terms, and Fang Yuzhe walked out, actually walking with Xiao Lin Yingzi.
Seeing this woman, Yuluo instinctively turned to leave. “Hey, Xia Yuluo, aren’t you looking for Fang Yuzhe?” Yingzi’s words carried a cold wind. Yuluo turned back, thinking that those who do many wrongs will eventually be punished, but she had good intentions – did she also deserve to be punished?
“Xia Yuluo, aren’t you going to give something to Fang Yuzhe?” The male student continued to “expose” her.
“Here,” she handed over the bag.
