Kapitel 172: A place to remember (3)

It doesn't matter what you did in the past, you can't change it. The best you can do about your past is to be nostalgic with your family and loved ones about happy memories.

Qin Yang remembers exactly how tall Jun Ting was when she first met him. Even though he was only a few centimeters taller than him, he loved to tease her about it. Now Jun Ting is one head taller than her, his little chubbiness on his cheeks are gone as well.

Jun Ting felt a stare on him for a while, he smirks " Do you like seeing my face that much?"

Her face reddens being caught red-handed, she looks away " Who likes seeing your face that much?"

Attempting to take her hand back from his to smack him, but Jun TIng was faster. He tightens his hold " Who else is here?"

Knowing she could not struggle from his strong grip, she only swings their connected hand harshly and pouts. Both of them continue to climb the stairs without a word, to the place where most of their precious memories are.

When stopped in front of the door, Qin Yang peeked from behind " Are you sure we can enter here as we like? I thought it will be locked after school hours? Won't they be suspicious of us?"

" Don't worry, I already request for permission from the authorities." he pulls out a key from his pocket and unlocks the door. Qin Yang raises her eyebrow " That is even more suspicious!" but still follows Jun Ting from behind.

The truth is, Jun Ting is one of the board members for the school, he was elected because he donated lots of money every year. " Trust me it will be fine." he chuckles.

A gust of wind blows past the couple as soon as they walk onto the rooftop of the school, their favorite hangout spot. Qin Yang opens her eyes as soon as the wind stopped, her lips curl into a smile when she saw the view.

" It never changed..." she said in a neutral tone. Jun Ting wraps his arm around her shoulder and pulls closer to him " It never did."

Both of them sat down by the edge against the fence, leaning on each other. Qin Yang watched as her former classmates at the gates, saying goodbye to one another " How did you manage to gather all of them and organized this? It's amazing how they agreed to this."

"Hmm... how... Because I am rich?" Jun Ting replies in an innocent tone. In an instant, he earns a smack on his back " I am asking a serious question here!"

Jun Ting groans in pain " Don't be so rough. Who would want you if you are like this?"

" You." she sticks her tongue out and proceeds to rub the place she hit earlier. Jun Ting always this side of her adorable, he steals a kiss on her forehead causing her to blush again. Qin Yang the topic before he does something else " Remember you always come here and skip classes."

" Of course, your face will like an angry cat when you find me."

Qin Yang glares at him and shot back " Right, and you are not sorry about it? "

" I treated your meals, didn't I?" he shrugs off.

" You-" she sighs, it's so tiring to rebuttal with Jun Ting. Oddly, every time when she is forced to find Jun Ting, it is during break time. Hence, that's why he always treats her food.

" Anyway, what made you have the graduation ceremony? It can't be just because I was able to attend seven years ago?" she leans in closer to take in his citrus scent. Qin Yang looks up at him when she realized he did not reply for a while " Ah Ting?"

He was staring at the field, following his attention, there were a boy and a girl sitting at the sidelines, laughing and joking around. It was a familiar scene, Qin Yang's eyes soften seeing them. "On that day, I wanted to tell you something but you did not arrive in the end." Jun Ting stood up suddenly which startled Qin Yang that was leaning on him.

" What do you mean? "

Without any questions, Qin Yang unknowingly stood up as well, Jun Ting reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small box. She was still trying to register what he was doing, Jun Ting opens the turquoise box " I like you. Will you go out with me? "

Qin Yang let out a laugh as she looks at the necklace in it, it was a silver chain with a sun pendant "So you were going to confess to me on our graduation day?"

"Is there something wrong with that?" Jun Ting felt his face heat up, it made Qin Yang laughed even more. She wraps her arm around his neck "Of course there is no problem with it. Do you know how cute you look right now?"

Jun Ting did not respond to her touch, he looked into her forever mysterious blue eyes " You haven't reply to my confession yet."

Qin Yang is so glad to discover this side of him, it is so cute that she want to die. Using all of her strength in her arms and pull him down to her height, she lands a kiss on his lips " Yes. I like you too."
