At the time of the action, Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang are high school students.

The spring weather was mesmerizing with its not yet crept up warmth and sun rays that reflected the glare on the windows of passing cars.

Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi were on their way to school. Cheng Xiaoshi disregarded his friend's personal space and clung to him, chatting nonstop about all sorts of nonsense.

«Lu Guang, what do you think of this idea?~»

Lu Guang flinched, coming to his senses from Xiaoshi's insistent voice. He didn't listen to what Cheng Xiaoshi suggested to him.

«What?» Lu Guang said in confusion as he stepped back from Cheng Xiaoshi.

A look of feigned resentment flashed across Cheng Xiaoshi's face. He playfully punched Lu Guang's shoulder and replied with the utmost cheerfulness:

«You didn't listen to me again... I was talking about how wonderful it would be to go on a picnic with you. Just imagine: you and me, and around us there is green grass and fresh forest air! Interested, Guang-Guang? Ha-ha!»

Lu Guang didn't answer him, but only looked away, thinking about something.

«Are you embarrassed?» Cheng Xiaoshi burst out laughing at his own joke, while Lu Guang's expression did not change.

Lu Guang chuckled, moving away from his friend with hasty steps. Now the corners of Lu Guang's lips treacherously moved upward.

«Heey, where are you..?» Cheng Xiaoshi caught up with Lu Guang and grabbed his elbow, stopping him.

«Have you thought about inviting Qiao Ling?» Lu Guang asked calmly.

Cheng Xiaoshi stared at him in surprise, genuinely not understanding why Lu Guang remembered Qiao Ling.

«Aren't you dating her?» Just in case, Cheng Xiaoshi clarified.

Lu Guang coughed into his fist, looking as serious as a teacher during a math test.

«I thought you were dating her...»

«I don't date Qiao Ling! She's like a sister to me. And I was thinking of inviting you to the picnic...»

Cheng Xiaoshi said this while looking into Lu Guang's eyes, hoping to find an answer in them.
