In previous years, the final exams for other grades were held after the college entrance examination, but this year, because the S University Affiliated Middle School needed campus renovations, all grades had their final exams moved up, even the third-year revision break started a week early.

Su Weiyi got up early every day, and after breakfast, she stayed in her room studying diligently. If no one called her, she could spend the entire day in her room studying; when she got tired of reading, she would pick up her paintbrush and start drawing, which was her only leisure activity.

Su Weiyi had a naturally quiet personality, and the college entrance examination was a source of stress for many. Although she had good grades, they weren’t extraordinarily high; she was just an ordinary student, earning each mark through sweat and practice.

So it was only natural for her to feel anxious before the college entrance examination. At times like this, no one would disturb her, letting her follow her own pace, which made Su Weiyi even more comfortable, immersed in her own little world.

After finishing a drawing, she turned to review her math paper. Like many girls, Su Weiyi’s math was a weak point, especially for the last big question, which she always gave up on, but now that she was reviewing, she naturally had to tackle it properly.

Lightly biting her red lips, she wrestled with the problem for a long time and let out a long sigh as she gazed out at the night outside the window. Alright, she gave up.

She sat quietly for a while, then stood up and grabbed her clothes to take a shower.

The intense studying made her fall asleep just moments after laying her head on the pillow.

A second before she fell asleep, Su Weiyi’s mind was still lingering on that math problem, still without a solution; she really was a glutton for punishment.

In fact, like many girls, her grades in arts and humanities were far better than in science, and for her, learning humanities was also easier than science. However, when it came time to choose classes in her second year of high school, she resolutely chose science, and no one knew why, nor did she ever explain.

Actually, it was exactly the same reason why she didn’t directly pursue the path of art back then.

Su Weiyi had enjoyed drawing since she was young. At a very young age, Mr. Sheng hired one of the best art teachers for her, and with her immense talent, Su Weiyi was always well-regarded on this path. So when it was time for her to go to middle school, they discussed with her the hope that she would directly follow the path of an art student.

This path might mean expense and uncertainty for an ordinary family, but it didn’t exist for her. The Sheng Family always treated her as their own, and Mr. Sheng advocated for a richly provided upbringing for girls, so she didn’t need to worry about her future; she just needed to live happily.

But Su Weiyi refused. She still hoped to be like a normal student, attending middle school, high school, then taking the college entrance exam and going to university.

Why?

Because the young man in her heart was taking that path.

And she wanted to walk the same path as him.

This was Su Weiyi’s deepest, most hidden secret, one that couldn’t be known by anyone.

She would keep this secret until the end of time, not letting anyone know.

Because it was dirty, it was vile, it was a little thought that couldn’t be recognized by anyone.

Everyone knew Su Weiyi as a good girl, but no one knew that in her heart, she actually had the most rebellious secret, a secret that she didn’t know when it began, but which day by day pressed on her heart, on her shoulders, heavy, sweet, yet bittersweet.
