Chu's mother was confused by what the neighbor aunt said, so she quickly pulled Su Nian aside to find out what was going on.

Su Nian finished explaining what happened with a wry smile, then pointed to her book and said, "I still need this. I carried it all the way back from Dabei, and my arms are sore!"

Only now did Mother Chu understand the whole story. She looked at Su Nian's thin arms with heartache, "You kid, you should have told Beichen to drive to pick you up. Look how tired you are!"

Mother Chu was very protective of her children. She comforted Su Nian and then walked over to the neighbor aunt. "What qualifications do you have to blame our child? If you can't carry things, don't buy so much!"

The neighbor was stunned and stood up angrily, "I'm saying this for your family's own good! Such an ignorant child will sooner or later cause trouble for the family!"

Mother Chu had already opened the door of her home: "That's my family's business, it's not your turn to interfere, whether it's good or bad!"

The neighbor aunt left embarrassedly, muttering something like "the upper beam is crooked and the lower beam is crooked."

Su Nian ran over and closed the door, "Auntie, you are so majestic!"

"Of course," Chu's mother, who was always generous with her self-praise, said, "I'm a teacher. If I can't speak well, how can I teach my students?"

Su Nian is very much loved in the Chu family. Not only does Chu Beichen like her, but Chu's father and mother also love her like their own daughter. It was not until the neighbor aunt's behavior happened that Su Nian realized that she held a very important position in Chu's mother's heart.

When Chu's mother learned that Su Nian wanted to read, she stopped her from working and asked her to go back to her room to take a shower and then study.

Su Nian also felt sticky and uncomfortable all over, so he went back to his room with his book.

Several rooms on the second floor share a bathroom. Su Nian had to avoid Chu Beichen when taking a shower. Chu Beichen was not at home at the moment, so she found a loose skirt to change into before going into the bathroom to shower.

With Chu's mother's care, Su Nian became more curious about her parents who left her. She didn't know who they were and why they left her stranded in Laowan Township.

Su Nian was lost in thought when the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open. Su Nian screamed and hurriedly grabbed the bath towel and wrapped it around herself.

Chu Beichen was also shocked. He had been training outside today and came back earlier than usual. He didn't expect something like this to happen!

There was a problem with the bathroom door lock. At night, Su Nian would sometimes use a small stool to prop up the door. In fact, as long as they saw the bathroom light was on, they would tacitly avoid it. Today was the first time such an embarrassing scene had occurred.

Su Nian turned around and saw that Chu Beichen had already closed the door like lightning. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one there. She didn't dare to continue flushing and quickly turned off the water.

When Su Nian finished packing and returned to her room, she saw that Chu Beichen's door was tightly closed. She felt a little guilty and didn't know whether Chu Beichen had seen it, so she quietly slipped back to her room.

After a while, her door was suddenly knocked cautiously, "I brought you watermelon!" It was Chu Beichen's voice.

Su Nian blushed when she thought of what happened just now, but it would not be appropriate not to open the door for Chu Beichen, so she still opened the door.

Chu Beichen stood at the door with a smile on his face, holding a fruit bowl. The watermelon had been cut into small pieces and a few toothpicks were stuck in it. He handed the bowl to Su Nian, "Eat some fruit. I heard you were exhausted today?"

Su Nian looked up at him, only to see his long eyelashes fluttering and his beautiful black eyes staring at her intently. Su Nian's heart suddenly began beating wildly.
