Does anyone know what the symbolism of the tangerine is, that the translator reffers to?

Yeah, RadiosAreObsolete is right, it's just a GL symbol 'cause of Citrus. 橘味 (Orange flavour) and 橘系 (Orange relations) basically just mean 'GL' lmao.

@Iski123 I assume their schools dont have fancy names, each district just calls its schools middle school 1, middle school2, etc- so people just say 'im from middle school 4' or whatever.

Oh I see, thanks!

Don't get me wrong, I want to Gugu and Yanxing kiss as soon as possible but seeing Wenwen grabbing Gugu's shoulder and calling her cutie drawn my attention...

It seems to be moving fast in how close they got. Its like weeks or a month passess between each chapter rather than a few days? Thats what it feels like to me- like im missing half their story of how they became close.

If it is skipping multiple weeks I wish it would tell you so i had a better sense of time passing.

Point of contention regarding the dialogue, whether the untranslated source indicated a speech change or not, a "g" is a guttural sound, so a chipped tooth or not using lips or tongue near teeth wouldn't prevent you from making it.

Longevity noodles sounds like a packet of Mi Goreng thats been in my cupboard from 2005.

@Karretch A chipped tooth wouldnt significantly alter your pronunciation- but if a big bit, like half of it was missing, some word sounds would have a kinda breathy whistle sound on their end. I've done it myself. But her chip looks pretty minor tbh.

I want longevity noodles!! V version :D

I did some backtracking and found that it’s been over a month based on the first sentence on this page:

Longevity noodles are a specific dish served for birthdays to wish for long life

Why is everyone so cute?

I love how wholesome this is, and it just feels mostly really natural in the stuff that happens. A proper slice of life with yuri romance, and full color! The faces have improved quite a bit, too. Really great manhua.

This was incredibly touching. I love how Yanxing handled it, turning off the light. Love these two.

Ahhh why end the chapter there?! These two are so cute together.

O-ok, that was fast i didn't except it

@elevown My point wasn't an issue with speech issues in general, but the 'g' being turned into an 'f', two very different sounds from different regions of the mouth.

O-Oh... now they are fucking

Help me, my heart, it's- AHHHHHHHHHH ;w;

no...NOT THE GRAPES! NOT THE GRAPES! GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!

Oh yeah they finally confessed, well that's cool.

Slowburn? What's that? So two main characters CAN confess their feelings and move on beyond friendship without unnecessary drama. Good for them! Chinese comics are really cute in general.

Situational ethics:
Reading someone else’s diary without permission: not OK.

Reading your crush’s diary without permission and finding out they have crush on you and you both end up Doing It: OK.

This stuff developed so fast I got severe whiplash

at the end of ch.15 when Yanxing grabbed Gugu's note I was like "oh did you grab her gay notebook for lesbian notes" and then the next chapter just immediately goes "yes" hahaha
