Regarding that bizarre experience, there's no point in dwelling on it. It can't change the past, and we can't intervene in the future. It's just adding unnecessary worry. It's better to go with the flow.
I don't know if the bracelet had any effect, but the two of them haven't experienced any supernatural events since then.
For several consecutive Spring Festivals, Chen Jing spent them alone in a rented house. It took a lot of courage for him to agree to spend the New Year at Zheng Yu's home. Fortunately, Zheng Yu's family relationships are simple, and Zheng's mother is kind-hearted, and his grandfather is also amiable. Chen Jing's nervousness gradually relaxed.
Early on the first day of the lunar new year, Zheng's mother gave Chen Jing a big red envelope. Chen Jing was too scared to accept it, as he hadn't received a red envelope since he became an adult. Every time he saw his sister's lucky money, he could only envy her.
Zheng Yu told him that regardless of age, as long as they are younger generation, it's not good for Chen Jing to refuse, he can only accept it obediently.
Chen Jing had a lukewarm relationship with his parents, but surprisingly, after coming out, they became closer. Even his parents are no longer at odds, they started to care about Chen Jing's life. Chen's mother even cleaned up Chen Jing's old room, hoping that he would come home and stay for a while during the holidays.
In the end, during the summer vacation of their junior year, Chen Jing finally brought Zheng Yu home. Chen's mother seemed visibly unhappy to see Zheng Yu, but didn't say much. When they left, Chen's mother grabbed the two and asked if Zheng Yu's parents had time to have a meal together, to get to know each other, which could be considered as agreeing to their relationship.
Everything was developing in a positive direction, and when school started, they entered their senior year. This could be said to be the last summer vacation of their lives. Zheng Yu pulled Chen Jing aside and said they should have a good time.
The location was chosen for a long time, and finally decided to go to Grandpa's orchard, where their relationship began. Zheng Yu always felt like she was absent, as if she needed to make up for the memories of the past. Grandpa, upon learning of their arrival, couldn't stop smiling and had prepared some local specialties in advance.
Zheng Yu also took him to see his own growth path, from kindergarten to high school. The two of them strolled around together. At this time, students were on vacation, only the high school seniors were still taking extra classes. In the hot summer breeze, you could faintly hear the sound of teachers lecturing.
Chen Jing seemed to have also seen the teenager sitting in the classroom studying, resting his chin on his hand, lazily looking at the blackboard. Even high school senior Zheng Yu would study attentively, right?
"What was your high school experience like? Did you have any early romantic relationships?" Zheng Yu suddenly asked.
Chen Jing remained silent. He had been in an online relationship with Jiang Yuandong during high school, but he couldn't say that, or he would have to come up with an excuse. "Of course not. You must have been very popular, right?"
Zheng Yu raised an eyebrow smugly, "Of course, you've seen my love letters before."
Chen Jing narrowed her eyes slightly, "Didn't you say those weren't love letters?"
Zheng Yu's smile stiffened, he forgot to deceive Chen Jing with those greeting cards. He smiled and pushed Chen Jing to leave, "I forgot, grandpa called us to pick peaches, let's go quickly."
"Zheng Yu, don't change the subject."
"This time you don't have to climb the tree. You can just wait for me at the bottom."
"Zheng Yu!"
"You can pick them if you want, I'll teach you."
"I'm talking about writing a love letter!"
"Okay, okay, I'll write to you when I get back."
The voice gradually faded away, and the setting sun cast their shadows long. Two young boys, full of vitality, walked out of the school campus, heading towards a new journey. Fortunately, they had each other's company.
"Let's go home, I'm not feeling well."
