"You guys are the most chaotic class I’ve ever taught."

This opening line made everyone present burst into laughter. Someone spoke up loudly, "Old teacher, do you say that about every graduating class?"

The homeroom teacher glared at that person, "You little rascal, I still haven’t settled the score with you for adding iced tea to my tea water back then."

Everyone laughed again, and the homeroom teacher continued, "Don’t think for a moment that I don’t know about the little tricks you used to pull. Some, I dealt with because they involved principles, and some, I let go. Youth is your youth, and it should have its own colors."

The homeroom teacher’s words, laced with a strong scent of alcohol, no longer incited the same laughter they did just now. Many people’s eyes reddened even as they laughed.

"You all will go your separate ways in the future. Don’t think that just because transportation is convenient now, you can see each other whenever you want. Once people enter society, they often find themselves with no control. So, today, if you have something to say or someone you want to see, seize the chance, or else you’ll regret it later."

Chen Ajia, sitting beside Su Weiyi, also had reddened eyes. Su Weiyi wasn’t as dramatic, but the feeling of reluctance in her heart was still stirred up.

The end of the college entrance exam is a milestone, marking the end of the most passionate and crazy youth.

Many people seemed touched by the teacher’s words, and since most had also been drinking, they staggered around and switched seats.

Su Weiyi sat quietly in her seat, but suddenly a hand reached out beside her. As she turned her head, she met Chen Ajia’s tearful eyes: "Xiao Yi, I don’t have many good friends. Thank you for always being there for me. I don’t know if we’ll be at the same university, but I’ll always remember you. You’re a lifelong friend."

As Chen Ajia spoke, he tilted his head back and downed the wine in his cup. Perhaps it was the moving atmosphere that stirred Su Weiyi’s heart too. She had been drinking soda, but now, seeing Chen Ajia’s demeanor, she couldn’t help but pour herself a cup, smiling, "Cheers."

The karaoke place was just above the dining area, the largest room enough to accommodate their entire class. Cases of beer were brought in, along with popcorn, beef jerky, and more.

The karaoke session was booked to last all night, and people could leave in the middle if they wanted to.

Someone played the song "Friends," which almost brought everyone to tears.

Su Weiyi held a beer in her hand, sipping it slowly. She’s not good with alcohol, but the atmosphere made juice seem too out of place. She drank slowly, as if gradually bidding farewell to her youth and to the secret buried deep in her heart.

She was about to head to her university campus, far from B City, far from S City, and even further from the boy who had grown up with her.

Then she would live in a whole new place, maybe even work, get married, and have children.

Meanwhile, her boy, after finishing high school, would study abroad and train according to the Sheng family’s plan. On his shoulders lay the responsibility of inheriting a vast Shengshi Group.

And then, they would still be sister and brother. She would be his sister, his lifetime sister. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

He would be her brother, her lifelong brother.

The intertwining of their lives for over ten years would soon diverge onto different paths, and she would ultimately have to bury that secret deep in her heart forever.
