Bai Zhou spent several seconds looking at her with expectant eyes.

Perplexed, Ji Fanyin asked with a warm and gentle voice, Zhouzhou, why are you looking at me like that?

Bai Zhou was even more bewildered than her. Dont you remember this place?

Have we been here before? Ji Fanyin tilted her head as she quickly sieved through her memories.

Nope, Ive never been here with him before.

Most of our meetings have been at his place. Other than that, weve only gone to his drawing studio, Disneyland, Universal Studios, and a few other places, but not this one.

Could this be a place he has been to with Ji Xinxin?

Unable to take it any longer, Bai Zhou shouted angrily, Isnt this the first place we met each other?!

Zhouzhou, you must be confused, replied Ji Fanyin in bewilderment. Have you forgotten? The first time we met was at Yandus experiential summer camp. Your school organized a visit to a nearby gallery showcasing the work of graduating art students.

Bai Zhou was so frustrated that he closed his eyes for several seconds in order to calm himself down. Then, he spoke in a suppressed voice, This is the place I first met Ji Fanyin. That should be clear enough, right?!

Ji Fanyin looked through her memories.

That does appear to be the case.

Back then, after the experiential summer camp, Bai Zhou chased Ji Xinxin all the way to Lakeside City, hoping to get closer to her. There was one incident where Ji Xinxin called a few friends out to play, and she insisted on dragging Ji Fanyin along, saying that it was a good chance for her to make some friends.

But how could the incredibly diffident Ji Fanyin be able to make any friends? She didnt even get a chance to speak at all.

It was that day Ji Xinxin introduced Ji Fanyin to Bai Zhou. With a smile, she said, This is my twin sister. Shes an amazing person.

Out of courtesy to Ji Xinxin, Bai Zhou greeted Ji Fanyin.

It was just that Ji Fanyins response was so timid that it sounded like a mosquitos buzz, and that grated on Bai Zhous nerves. That was probably where his initial disdain for Ji Fanyin came from.

I recall it now! Ji Fanyin gave an Ah hah! expression, indicating that she had recalled something. She stroked her chin with her fingers and said, But I remember that you disliked my big sis back then. You said something along the lines of Your big sis cant even compare with one of your fingernails. How is she amazing?. Did I remember it wrong?

The unexpected verbal stab had Bai Zhou cursing under his breath, Fuck.

He grabbed his pained heart and wondered where he could buy a time machine.

If I could turn back time, I would give the me from two years ago a tight slap.
