“Oh, this?”

Zuko took out what he was holding. It was a banknote.

Lina was stunned at first. She only realized that it was not a banknote but a drawn one!

It was just that the patterns and the lines were too real!

Zuko could totally fool someone with that.

Lina was dumbstruck and looked at him blankly.

Zuko noticed the complex emotions flashing through her eyes at that second.

Did she think that he was forging banknotes?

Zuko chuckled. “Your father asked me if I could forge banknotes. I don’t, but I can draw them. I drew this, especially

for you.”

“For me?” asked Lina.

“Mm-hmm.” He gestured and said, “Flip it over.”

Lina flipped it over in doubt. The normal banknotes should have the location of the bank printed on the center-right

side, but there were two alphabet characters in their place instead—LJ.

Lina was confused at first and then stunned. She suddenly looked up. Zuko no longer looked unfathomable and cold

like before. There was a strange warmth in his eyes now.

“I didn’t know what I could give you, so I thought I’d give you this,” he explained in a deep voice, pursing his lips. “I

hope that… you’d like it.”

He had never said such things before, so his tone was rather stiff.

Lina looked down and smiled. She put the “banknote” in the drawer and said after a while, “I accept it. Is there

anything else?”

“Oh, that’s all.” He kept scratching his nose.

Lina did not look at him, but his presence lingered in the air.

Their shadows reflected on the wall, close to each other.

Lina could not help but smile.

Zuko sensed his heart beating irregularly, and he struggled to catch his breath. Additionally, he noticed an unusual

warmth in his earlobes.

Reacting swiftly, he made up a quick excuse and departed. As he hurried down the stairs, he skipped a few steps

and nearly stumbled, narrowly avoiding a fall.

From upstairs, Lina observed the scene and instinctively covered her lips as she smiled. Concerned about him, she

anxiously gazed downward.

At the same time, he glanced upward as if he could sense her watchful presence. Their eyes locked, and they saw

nothing but each other in that intense gaze.

…

Lina slept well tonight.

Ever since she was young, Lina had recurrent dreams of the beach. The ocean in her dreams differed from the one

in Jangasas. Moreover, she would transform into a child, stumbling along unsteadily. In her dreams, there was

always a boy who held her hand and drew fireflies on the beach, making her smile.

However, she would awaken abruptly whenever she attempted to see the boy’s face.

Today, Lina woke up earlier than usual.

She stretched her body, fully aware that she couldn’t afford to delay, as she had an early class. Hastily, she rose

from the bed, freshened up, and changed, rushing out without delay.

Unbeknownst to her, Zuko quietly trailed behind from a distance.

As Lina approached the university entrance, Zuko quickened his pace and gently tapped her shoulder when he

caught up with her.

“What’s wrong?” she asked.

“You didn’t have breakfast.” He handed her a cup of fresh orange juice and a granola bar.

He had bought those from the cafe by the street.

Lina felt warm inside when she took them over shyly. She suddenly recalled something embarrassing.

“Zeke, I…” It was hard for her to tell him. “I forgot my homework.”
