Rebirth: Once Again With You

Chapter 373 Li Chunhua And Feng Nian

After the second day's itinerary was done, every student had some free time, which they used to hang out with their friends. Like the first day, Li Chunhua stuck to Li Caiyi closely as they enjoyed the view of K city.

Compared to the busy roads of S city, K city was relatively calmer and had less traffic, but the city square was rumored to be very beautiful. Statues of Greek Gods surrounded the big fountain in the center.

If you walked past it, there was a vast lawn with neatly trimmed bushes and trees with lush greens, making it a good spot for people to play or have a picnic. No wonder there were so many people here.

The statue's design was elegant and gave a mystique feeling to the square. The carving was smooth yet intricate at the same time. Added to how majestic and extravagant the fountain was, it became one of the must-go tourist spots.

Feng Nian wished to take a group picture there; she just didn't expect Li Chunhua would be so thick-skinned to join them throughout the trip and act like nothing happened.

Unlike the others, she still had yet to open up to this person. Still, she also couldn't possibly ask her three friends to take a picture while excluding Li Caiyi's twin sister.

It would put Li Caiyi in a tough spot, but Feng Nian wasn't that cold-hearted either.

With this thought, she almost put away the camera before Li Chunhua snatched it from her grasp.

"Ah, hey!"

Nonchalantly taking some distance from them, Li Chunhua directed the camera to the four people. "Alright, say cheese."

The way she did it was so natural. Everyone automatically gathered close to each other while making a good pose and flashing their better smile. Chen Ruolan pulled Feng Nian, who was still in a daze, so she had no choice but to smile as well.

After taking a few shots, Li Chunhua casually gave it back to the bewildered Feng Nian. The latter was embarrassed for letting her thoughts be read easily by Li Chunhua. She was torn about whether she should apologize or thank her. Both or neither.

Awkwardness hung in the air between the two until Li Chunhua shoved her phone, which was wrapped in a cute phone case, to her. "Your turn. I won't forgive you if the result is bad because I made sure to make yours pretty."

Li Chunhua had already run towards Li Caiyi and dragged her to pose with her, away from Chen Ruolan and Zhou Ya.

Feng Nian was dumbfounded but snapped out of it when the twins waited for her to take the picture. "Alright, smile, you two!"

Click!

Although feeling awkward and confused at first, after taking several shots, Feng Nian became ambitious about it and even made a direction from them.

"Li Chunhua, don't stick too close to her. You'll block her face!"

"No way! I like it this way!" Li Chunhua retorted while stubbornly clinging to Li Caiyi's arms.

"Then, you stick out your head more, Caiyi. And smile wider!"

The person who received instruction could only resign herself to her order. Li Chunhua demanded a re-take a few times, and by the time she was satisfied, Li Caiyi was exhausted.

Raising her head, she saw Li Chunhua bickered with Feng Nian about the angle of the picture, making her look short. Still, it wasn't the kind of hostile bickering they used to have. They looked surprisingly…normal?

Li Chunhua and Feng Nian.

It was a combination she would never dare to put together in the past. But thinking about it again, they shared many similarities, including how they were too prideful to approach the other first.

Whichever it was, Li Caiyi felt elated to see her sister get along well with her friends. Her body became lighter, and she craved more of these moments with them. So she took out her phone from her bag and asked a kind-looking lady for a favor.

With a bright smile, she waved her hands to them. "Guys, let's take another picture! Five of us in a frame this time!"

On her previous school trip, she had no friends, and Li Chunhua wasn't there to look around the city with her.

Honestly, she didn't care much about the city square because this wasn't her first time coming here. But now, this place looked more beautiful, and a simple moment brought immense joy to her.

After the kind lady took several shots of them, Li Caiyi checked the result. She remembered she once took a picture by herself in the city square. She smiled in that picture, but the camera also captured her stiffness and loneliness.

Now, she wasn't alone. She had her sister beside her, and her friends crowded around her. Everyone was smiling brightly, and her heart filled with warm feelings.

Li Caiyi almost couldn't believe that the person who smiled the brightest in that picture was the same person who wished the trip to end quickly.

Hugging her phone to her chest, Li Caiyi let out a small giggle of happiness. From now on, she planned to take many pictures like this with people she cherished.

Dai Zhiqiang's face popped into her mind thinking of a cherished person.

Although they had been dating for weeks, they never took a picture together. Li Caiyi only had several images of him, which she took secretly.

Dai Zhiqiang didn't seem like the type that liked to take a picture nor actively suggested things like that, so it left him with no choice.

'I want to take a picture with him too. I wish he is here right now.'

Even in the midst of having fun with her friends, she still missed him dearly.

"Xiaoyi, there is an ice cream truck there. Come on!"

Li Caiyi raised her head at Li Chunhua's excited urging. "Coming!"

Everyone bought a cup of ice cream for themselves. Zhou Ya pointed out a good spot among the three, and the five girls sat together to enjoy the treats.

"Yummy, ice cream in this hot weather is the best!"

"I thought the taste would be like any other place, but this is pretty good." Zhou Ya hummed in agreement with Chen Ruolan.

Li Caiyi also took a spoon for herself and relished the cold and sweet taste on her tongue.

"Xiaoyi, yours is orange-flavored, right? Let me have a taste!"

Before she could agree, Li Chunhua already scooped a spoonful from her cup and put it in her mouth. Li Caiyi shook her head with a weak smile.

"But is it okay for you to be here?"

Feng Nian asked while focusing on her ice cream, but everyone automatically knew to whom she talked. Four heads turned their gaze to Li Chunhua simultaneously.

"Can't I be here? I already promised Xiaoyi I won't make trouble anymore, so don't worry," she answered lightly. If she was offended, then she didn't show it on her face.

"No, it's not like that. I mean, aren't you very popular? I'm sure many people want to walk with you, but you spent most of your free time with us."

"Ah, you mean that. True, there are a lot of people who want to walk with me." Li Chunhua said smugly, but only Li Caiyi noticed how distracted she was from how she crushed her ice cream with a spoon. "But I prefer to spend some time with my sister."

Feng Nian stared at her intensely. It was unknown whether she suspected Li Chunhua was up to something again or not, but Li Caiyi decided to intervene.
