Inside Qin Bingbing’s room—

Qin Bingbing covered her mouth and sobbed softly. Clear tears kept slipping down her cheeks.

Xiao Feng really looked so much like Little Fengfeng. The moment Qin Bingbing first saw Xiao Feng’s face, she felt he looked just like Little Fengfeng.

Even though Xiao Feng looked a little different from when Little Fengfeng was a child, she could still see that same boy in his face.

Qin Bingbing looked at their old photo together every single day. With one glance, she felt Xiao Feng had to be Little Fengfeng.

And Xiao Feng’s personality was the same too. Gentle, considerate, and even his name had “Feng” in it. That made her even more certain.

“Little Fengfeng... could Xiao Feng really be Little Fengfeng?”

Qin Bingbing was crying, but these were tears of joy. Right now, she was both happy and scared.

She was happy because Xiao Feng was very likely Little Fengfeng.

But what scared her was that Xiao Feng might not be Little Fengfeng after all.

Bzz bzz bzz~

The sound of her phone vibrating rang through Qin Bingbing’s quiet room, making it seem especially loud.

Looking at the QQ call Xiao Feng was making, Qin Bingbing took a deep breath, forced her tears back down, and answered his video call.

“Qin Bingbing, what’s wrong? Am I really that ugly? Ugly enough to make you cry?!”

Xiao Feng looked at Qin Bingbing in complete confusion. She had stopped crying, but her eyes were still red. He felt awkward as hell.

If he really had managed to ugly-cry Qin Bingbing, was he even going to survive this?

Qin Bingbing looked at his face, shook her head, and asked through a choked voice,

“You’re Little Fengfeng, right?”

“Huh? Since when did you give me such a... such a high-class nickname?!”

He had originally wanted to say it was the kind of nickname that gave him full-body goosebumps. But considering Qin Bingbing’s soft personality, he changed his words at the last second and called it “high-class” instead.

“You... do you remember where you went to elementary school?”

Biting her lip, Qin Bingbing stared at Xiao Feng’s face and asked the question nervously.

Xiao Feng didn’t know why she was asking, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded.

“Oh, I went to elementary school out of town. I remember it was called something like Kyoto Dongsheng... something elementary school?”

“Kyoto Dongsheng Experimental Elementary School, right?”

Seeing him trying to remember, Qin Bingbing quickly filled it in for him. Her voice was full of anticipation.

Xiao Feng looked at her eager face, completely unable to figure out how Qin Bingbing knew the name of the school he had attended in another city.

“Qin Bingbing, how do you know my school’s name? Were you in that school too?”

The moment she heard him admit it, Qin Bingbing covered her mouth again. Two more streams of tears slipped down, and she was sobbing too hard to even speak.

Xiao Feng was dumbfounded again. What was happening this time? Did that elementary school get blown up after he left or something?

“Qin Bingbing, don’t cry. If something’s wrong, just say it. I really can’t stand seeing girls cry in front of me. It makes me feel weirdly guilty!”

Xiao Feng tried to comfort her in a flustered way. He really was afraid of seeing girls cry in front of him, and Qin Bingbing’s crying seemed to have something to do with him too.

That only made him feel worse.

“X-Xiao Feng... do you remember me?”

Qin Bingbing spoke through her sobs, her voice full of worry.

Hearing that, Xiao Feng was completely at a loss.

“No, wait, didn’t we only meet less than two months ago? Even if we used to go to the same school... no, wait...”

At that point, it was like something suddenly came back to him.

Qin Bingbing. Qin Bingbing.

The more he turned that name over in his mind, the more familiar it started to feel.

Thinking of that, Xiao Feng asked her in confusion,

“Y-you are... who again?”

The moment Qin Bingbing heard that, two more lines of tears fell from her eyes.

Watching her cry again for reasons he still didn’t understand, Xiao Feng felt a little bad inside anyway.

Seeing such a soft, delicate girl crying at him through a video call, wanting to comfort her but not knowing what to say, felt absolutely awful.

Still, Qin Bingbing only cried for a little while before calming down.

She gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fair hand. Her eyes were still red, but she showed Xiao Feng a smile so beautiful it could steal the soul.

She knew Xiao Feng probably still hadn’t remembered who she was.

But that was okay.

As long as she had now confirmed that Xiao Feng was Little Fengfeng, that was enough.

That breathtaking smile left Xiao Feng completely stunned.

Qin Bingbing’s fragile, delicate look gave him an impulse to rush over and protect her right away.

“Xiao Feng... do you remember Little Bingbing? The little girl you used to protect all the time when you were little?!”

“Huh?”

After hearing that, Xiao Feng stared at Qin Bingbing’s pure and beautiful face in disbelief.

Because now he remembered why the name Qin Bingbing had felt so familiar just now.

Qin Bingbing had been cute as a child too, but girls really do change as they grow up. He hadn’t recognized her at all as that little girl from elementary school who used to cling to him all the time.
