Time always slips away unnoticed.

Looking back, we have all grown up unknowingly.

Three years of junior high school passed in the blink of an eye.

When the graduation bell rang, the scenes of military training seemed like yesterday.

Those days of dozing off in class, reading novels under the blanket, and comparing pee in the restroom are gone forever in the blink of an eye.

After taking the graduation photo, everyone went their separate ways.

Some went to the city to attend high school, some went to the county to attend vocational school, some went back home to work on the farm, and some carried their bags and went out to work. Former classmates stood at different crossroads of fate, accepting different destinies.

The past grievances and loves are put down at this moment. Many classmates cried, and many people wrote messages to each other in notebooks or yearbooks, saying "take care".

Perhaps this yearbook will be stored in a corner of the house, covered in dust.

But one day when you open this yearbook again, tears will inevitably flow.

Zhang Yuxin came to me and handed me the yearbook, asking me to leave a message for her.

Since Zhang Yuxin confessed to me and I rejected her, our relationship has become somewhat awkward.

I dare not get close to her and always deliberately keep my distance from her.

Sometimes when we meet on the road, I also quickly lower my head and walk around in panic.

And sometimes in the classroom, unintentionally, we occasionally meet each other's eyes. Every time, I quickly turn my head away and pretend to look elsewhere.

The yearbook emits a faint fragrance. I took a deep breath, not knowing what to write, just picked up the pen and wrote "take care" on the yearbook.

"Is it that simple?" Zhang Yuxin asked me.

I smiled awkwardly, indeed not knowing what else to write, and I couldn't say those romantic messages from the snow and moon.

Zhang Yuxin put away the yearbook and thanked me.

"Oh, by the way!" Zhang Yuxin took a few steps forward, turned around and asked me, "You're not in a hurry to go home, right?"

I asked Zhang Yuxin if there was something, and she said she was planning to organize a graduation trip. All the classmates in the class can sign up to participate, which can be considered as a perfect ending to the three years of junior high school life.

As the class monitor, it is understandable for Zhang Yuxin to organize graduation activities, and she has sincerely invited me. If I don't go, it will definitely make people think that I am arrogant, and Zhang Yuxin will be very disappointed.

Thinking about this, I was about to agree to Zhang Yuxin's invitation, but unexpectedly, Fatty preempted and happily said, "Sign me up! Of course I'll sign up! Yang Cheng and I actively respond to the monitor's call, right Yang Cheng?"

I nodded and told Zhang Yuxin that we would definitely participate in this graduation trip.

Upon hearing my positive response, Zhang Yuxin looked very happy, with a faint smile on her lips, and went to contact other classmates.

Finally, after counting, ten classmates signed up for the graduation trip.

Others refused for various reasons, and some students who performed poorly in exams were not in the mood to go out and play.

Zhang Yuxin felt a little sad. As the class monitor, she hoped that all classmates could participate in the graduation trip, but in the end, only one-fifth of the people participated. Zhang Yuxin asked me, "Yang Cheng, is it because I am a terrible person?"

Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.

I and Fatty comforted Zhang Yuxin, saying that having too many people would be troublesome. After going out, it would be difficult to manage, with many opinions and prone to accidents. Ten people going out for a trip is just right.

Under my and Fatty's comfort, Zhang Yuxin's mood improved a lot, and she began to arrange the graduation activities diligently.

Soon, the activity plan came out, and the destination was a place called "Fairy Lake." The activities focused on barbecue, camping, and outdoor games.

Fairy Lake is about half a day's journey from the town, in a relatively remote and undeveloped primitive forest. However, some people have visited Fairy Lake and said that its natural scenery is beautiful and suitable for organizing outdoor activities.

Zhang Yuxin's cousin had been to Fairy Lake and brought back some photos. Zhang Yuxin thought the place was beautiful and, after asking her cousin, decided to set the activity location at Fairy Lake.

Fairy Lake, just the name sounds beautiful.

Fatty rubbed his hands and said with a lewd smile, "I wonder if there are really fairies in Fairy Lake? What if we encounter fairies bathing in the lake..."

I raised my hand and knocked on Fatty's head, saying, "Are you watching too much TV dramas? Do you think you're Zhu Bajie and can see seven fairies bathing? Be realistic, your ** is behind you!"

Fatty turned around and saw the girl with a face full of freckles, smiling shyly at him.

Fatty shivered and pretended to look elsewhere.

The girl with freckles is Juanzhi. Although she doesn't look good, she has a good personality, lively and cheerful, and gets along well with us.

I told Fatty that Juanzhi is actually pretty good. That shy smile just now reminded me of a lyric, "The blushing rose shyly blooms!"

Fatty opened his mouth and scolded me, "What's wrong with your eyes? Blushing rose? It's blushing peony!"

As soon as Fatty finished speaking, Juanzhi stood behind him with a face full of killing intent, clenching her fists, making a creaking sound. "Fatty, who do you call a peony?"

Fatty swallowed his saliva and said with a wry face, "Juanzhi, don't misunderstand. When I said peony, I was referring to... my mom!"

Juanzhi giggled and patted Fatty's shoulder, asking, "Then what am I?"

Fatty said with a mournful face, "Rose! Rose! You're the blushing rose!"

Juanzhi blushed and bumped Fatty with her butt, saying with a shy look, "Fatty, I like your taste. You know how to appreciate!"

Fatty had a black line on his face, and I had already been laughing uncontrollably.

The list of ten students going to Fairy Lake for the trip was also confirmed, three girls and seven boys.

The three girls were Zhang Yuxin, Juanzhi, and the girl with glasses.

Women always have their own thoughts, and they are very jealous. Zhang Yuxin comes from a good family and is beautiful. Most of the girls in the class isolate her. Coupled with Zhang Yuxin's somewhat aloof personality, her relationship with the girls in the class is not very good, so naturally, those girls did not sign up for the activity.

Juanzhi is a straightforward person without any hidden agenda, and her relationship with Zhang Yuxin is quite good.

The girl with glasses is a diligent and studious student. She got into the top high school in the city with the highest score in the class. She was very happy and had worked hard for three years, so she followed everyone to relax.

Among the seven boys, there were me, Fatty, Long Shao Ye, Xu Wenbo, Liu Qiang, Hao Feiji, and Juanmao.
