"Ling~ Good morning~"

"Good morning."

"You look happy today？"

"Is it？"

"Yes！You almost said good morning to me with a smile！"

"Then what's my normal expression？"

"You definitely have an expressionless face and is very fierce."

In the first month after officially entering the second grade, Yu Ruoling smiled helplessly.

After a full thirty days of torture by "all kinds of good anyway", she finally lost to Ron. Probably the tolerant policy of fellowship of those people that was really effective, and her resistance in this regard was really getting lower and lower.

"Good in the future anyway comes with a smile."

"Wow, Ling is so good~"

"What did you have for breakfast today？"She looked at the breakfast box in Ron's white lunch bag, "It smells very strong, but it's great."

"Me？Do you want to try it？I bought this in the block opposite my home. I told you that the breakfast shop's everything is super delicious！"

"What name？"

"It's named Man Yuan. "Ron suddenly looked excited. She hurriedly put down her schoolbag and lunch bag and took out her breakfast, "I ordered carrot cake, tuna omelet and a cup of burdock tea. I brewed the tea myself. Do you wanna try？Let’s drink and see！”

"Okay. "Yu Ruoling said.

When Ron took out the metal round cup containing burdock tea, a faint aroma of milk mixed with longan filled the air. Although she doesn't know if there is something wrong with her sense of smell, it is surprisingly good.

"It tastes good, right？Ah, by the way, I have a question for you. Will it disturb you？"

Yu watched her take out many test papers from her schoolbag, sighed inwardly, and put her phone in the drawer, "No, what's wrong？"

"Look at this question, "Ron pointed at the history test paper and said, "the Boxer Rebellion and Cixi are derived from each other, and they are also related to the Eight-Power Allied Forces. But why was the formation of the Eight-Power Allied Forces not caused by the Boxer Rebellion？Instead of Boxer, choose Cixi？"

The question was quite good, Yu commented secretly, and began to guess whether Ron's grades were among the top 100 in school. Out of a competitive mentality to ensure her further education, Yu Ruoling selfishly felt a little threatened.

"You've already stated the key points, think about it again."She prompted.

Ron was confused for a while, frowned and started to think.

...And thought about it for a long time and didn't find it.

"Huh？What？"

"Say again what you just said."

"What did I say？...Oh my God, Alzheimer's！！Oh, I remembered it. "Ron patted her chest, with a shocked look on her face, and then laughed to herself, "I said Boxer and Cixi mutually... "

"Yes, that's it."

"？Let me see."

Yu looked at Ron, and the feeling of threat slowly faded away, replaced by a strange sense of companionship in which they were cooperating with each other and striving for higher education opportunities.

She actually doesn't reject Ron - facing someone of the same sex who is still a stranger - the time span of her admission has shrunk again, it's really unbelievable.

From the first two years to meeting Li Chengguang, it only took about nine months, and then Ron who was still thinking about the relationship between Cixi and the Eight-Power Allied Forces.

One month.

This is simply incredible. There was no emotion on her face, but her head was in a knot. The healing process of the Lord Jesus was so rapid that she was a little, no... very, quite, extremely confused. When Ron's question is over, she should ask Fong Xuan and Jesus - it doesn't require the three of them to get together. If she chooses this, she would not have time to go to class at all.

Yu Ruoling came back to her senses and continued to look at the other questions circled in red pen on the test paper, and then found that the errors required more careful thinking before they could be answered.

These wrong choices are just a tiny bit away from the correct answer.

History is really troublesome, she thought, especially on both sides, the Kuomintang - aka as KMT - and the Chinese Communist Party（CCP）.

In the beginning, she almost couldn't figure out what was going on in these people's minds. What unite the Soviet Union to resist the CCP？Countless times they have to cooperate with the CCP to fight Japan, eight years of resistance war, civil war, and warlord factionn.

Those names include Fong Yuxiang, Duan Qirui, Yuan Shikai, Sun Yat-sen, and Chen Duxiu. Next comes Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Xueliang, the 918 Incident, the Huanggutun Station Incident, and Manchukuo - aka as the puppet of Japan.

Finally, there was the National Government, Wuhan National Government, Nanjing National Government, and Wang Jingwei. She remembered the provisional agreement and the four key battles. Then the Nationalist Government changed the capital to Chongqing, focusing on defense. The CCP's guerrilla tactics are indeed very effective, and just thinking about but already it makes her feel tired, the 25,000-mile Long March.

Balabalabalabalabala…

She could write these words alone for a whole month, and she still wouldn't be able to finish them... She has never really learned this part of history. She learns it once and forgets it once. It is so complicated that she cannot remember it at all.

If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

She dosen't know if watching related TV series will help. In other words, she still can’t even figure out the time and space background of the recently popular TV series in the early Republic of China.

"Ah！I'm an idiot！！I know it！"Ron suddenly shouted, with an expression full of "I'm Stupid, I'm stupid", and looked at her in despair, "Hahaha！Oh my God, yes！Why didn't I think of that, haha！"

"Do you understand clearly and do you think Cixi is a headache at all？"

"I now know very clearly that understanding Cixi is really a headache. Well, I will go back and take a look at the rest. I feel that I should be able to find the answer myself."

Yu Ruoling nodded in agreement, "Your idea is very close. Let's think about the connection and details of these things. For example, the sentence 'rob like a bandit' in question 10, and 'The emperor fled', and then look at the following options, you can roughly judge. However, you choose the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, not the second Anglo-French coalition. "

"Yes, "The pen in Ron's hand turned and twirled on her fingertips, and Yu noticed that this was her unique thinking mode, "because when Li Zicheng captured Beijing, Ming Sizong... It should be Ming Sizong, right？Yah, didn't he escape？And Li Zicheng is indeed a bandit, so I chose this."

"But if the answer is Ming Sizong, the question should not be asked like this, otherwise both answers can be chosen."

"Yes, so I have to ask the teacher again."

Yu Ruoling paused for a moment, and finally swallowed back the sentence "Ming Sizong hanged himself." She had no choice but to throw out a stiff smile, and watched Ron excitedly go out and run to the Social Affairs Office.

Well, she hopes that after this volleyball girl gets the answer, girl won't tell her why the answer should be Ming Sizong.

Yu Ruoling sighed tangledly, looked at the clock hanging on the wall, took out the English textbook she was going to take from the drawer, and then started to focus on the text and do business.

'Fong Xuan, Fong Xuan, is my other half online？If you're not here, I'll have to take a nap for thirty seconds and swim back to kick you awake.'

…

…

…

'Three two…'

'Now, I am expressing surprise at my other half's terrible words.'

'Thank you, what are you doing？Where is He？'

'Prepare breakfast, semicolon, pray.'

'Oh.'

'Why did you suddenly call me so early today？'Fong Xuan stopped joking.

Through His recovery in the past few months, "she" has become completely equal to her.

'I want to ask a question. ’Yu said, unconsciously drawing in the textbook with the mechanical pencil she held in her hand just to look better.

'What is the problem？Oh, are you talking about the timeline for psychologically accepting someone as a friend？'

You knew too quickly... Yu Ruoling couldn't help but twitch her mouth and said, 'That's right.'

'You've seen her, right？'

'…Yes. ’She was silent for a while and then added, ‘I really don’t understand why He put Su Peixin and me in the same class, so who can still attend the class？'

Fong Xuan poured the coffee beans into the coffee machine, and a rich aroma wafted out, 'But you made up your mind to forgive her.'

'But it's not me, it's her... What do you think？'

'I listen to Him. Besides, we are one person. What you think is what I think. On the contrary, what I think is what you will think.'

'Hmm...'Yu pondered.

What Fong Xuan said was indeed the truth, and according to her feelings, if she wanted to overcome this hurdle, she must first learn to forgive. Whatever it is sound like the empty talk, but it must be implemented face to face.

Moreover, Su Peixin is the first person she has met in the past eight years, so forgiveness is more likely to become empty talk（it's too hard to do）.

What she says is what she thinks in her heart, but when she meets that one, it's not necessarily the same thing.

People's hearts will always make mistakes, and more often than not they will go back on their word. Regrets and betrayals are all common.

'Then what did He say？'

'What He said may surprise you, but it is actually the truth of reality.'

Yu Ruoling frowned in confusion, 'What？'

'That He said, 'Fong Xuan took a sip of coffee calmly, 'just wait for two more months, it's almost time.'

The mechanic pen in Yu Ruoling's hand broke off with a "snap" and a small piece of the refill slid along the textbook page and finally fell to the ground.

Her pupils suddenly narrowed, and a thin layer of cold sweat almost immediately appeared on her back.

'Impossible.'

'Nothing is impossible. The other half, compared to that person, this is the real knot in the heart, even the inner demon.'

'I tried to protect her. It's okay for her to break up with me. She's just protecting herself. But what Li Qingfeng did...'

'What Li Qingfeng did, from the starting point of my memory, was not the fundamental reason for you to abandon friendship at that time. Maybe we have been lying to ourselves all along. '"She" narrowed “her” eyes that peach-fox liked, which seemed calm and dark without any ripples. Only if one looks closely can find the ups and downs of the dark waves underneath, "Li Qingfeng is just adding fuel to the flames, or let us fall once in friendship and taste betrayal and bullying. Even though she is our first friend in nine years of living since we were born, for us...'

'...It's just a process... It's just a return to the original state of having no friends and having to be alone when leaving home...'Yu Ruoling took the words and held her forehead tiredly. She finally understood the meaning of "Fong Xuan thinks whatever she thinks about, and she thinks whatever Fong Xuan thinks about."

It wasn't mutual brainwashing or something else. The reason was very simple and strange -

- Because they are truly the same person.

Although Li Qingfeng is nominally the first friend, they both know that this is just a process, like going around a circle and returning to the starting point. There is never the slightest difference between being and not being. Li Qingfeng is just a passer-by in her life, the pusher that allows her to enter the trial and reach a new realm.

Although those injuries were caused, the only thing that have been lingering in her heart for the past eight years and cannot be dissipated are these things and the subconscious avoidance and warning of her peers.

Without people, there is no Li Qingfeng.

Except Su Peixin. The so-called "friends" are just for fun and don't have serious thoughts. It was indeed born after Su Peixin broke up with her.

…

「I'm sorry Ruoling, Qingfeng and I reconciled, but it turned out that it was just a misunderstanding. There is no need to mention this matter in the future, but Qingfeng can't forgive you. I'm sorry, but I have to break off our relationship with you.」

…

That's what the note said. From then on, she was completely disillusioned with friendship. Everything she had done, protecting Su Peixin, seeing Li Qingfeng clearly, pushing Zheng Jingyi away, the scars on her knees, the scars on her back, her wrists, shoulders, ankles and left waist.

Those slaps.

There was already a red mark on her throat.

It's all a joke. ...This is what she can't let go of.

'It's all a joke, it makes me just like a stupid person that try to do something nothing.'

'It's all a joke, it makes me just like a stupid person that try to do something nothing.'

'Like a clown who lives just to please people's eyes and please her.'

'Like a clown who lives just to please people's eyes and please her.'

Yu Ruoling clasped her hands together and pressed her chin. A small red-gold circular mark on the wrist of her right forearm suddenly started to feel hot.

She quickly stood up, walked out of the classroom where there were still only four or five people, and hid in a room of women lavatory.

Leaning against the locked door, she felt that her reason and consciousness were rapidly leaving this body, and an extremely powerful pulling force was like a black hole in the universe trying to pull her consciousness in. In her daze, she heard the crisp sound of a glass breaking, like the sound of a mirror breaking naturally.

She saw Fong Xuan suddenly soften and fall to the ground, as if little starlight slowly dissipated. At the same time, His figure suddenly appeared next to Fong Xuan's disappearing body. He held "her" hand and murmured something, then looked at her with a bright smile.

Yu Ruoling's consciousness suddenly returned, and a burst of indescribable relief suddenly came over her.

"Who are you？"A voice asked, like a flood and like lightning and thunder, full of awe-inspiring majesty, yet delicate and gentle, as if whispering in the ear.

"I am created by Your hands. "She replied with a closed eyes and deep breath, "Even if I feel bad, I will do everything according to You. I already have enough strength to face this calmly. Everything."

"There is no need for who is the first. "She said, with a little reflection in her eyes, "Father God, I can do all things through You who gives me strength."

*

"Su, you are the general affairs manager, right？Yah, you forgot to take your card out of air conditioner's sensor."
