Reborn to his campus days, Lu Yuanqiu was looking after his family's supermarket when he noticed a clear-faced, beautiful girl shoplifting items from the shelves on the security monitor.

Chapter 714 It Couldn’t Be More Coincidental
Zheng Yifeng's uncle is obviously over 180cm tall, has fair skin, and looks a bit handsome. He even looks a bit like Zheng Yifeng, but he is much stronger than Zheng Yifeng.
"It's really Lu Yuanqiu..." Li Bowen, holding the basketball, stopped in front of the people who waved at him.
Lu Yuanqiu was even about to lift his hair so that the other party wouldn't recognize him.
"Then this sister must be Bai Qingxia. I've read it in the newspaper and was very impressed by her profile. Hehe, my deskmate has always liked you." Li Bowen smiled and pointed at Bai Qingxia.
Bai Qingxia looked at Lu Yuanqiu.
Judging from the tone, it seemed that he had guessed wrong. This guy had no feelings for Bai Qingxia. Lu Yuanqiu even thought of a scene where a middle school boy competed with Bai Qingxia on the basketball court.
It seems not.
Zheng Yifeng came out: "Li Bowen, I am your nephew."
"Don't... don't, don't. Although you don't look like a liar and everyone else agrees, I still can't understand why my parents never mentioned you." Li Bowen immediately raised his hand and even took half a step back.
Zheng Yifeng: "Wouldn't it be clearer if I asked you in person?"
Li Bowen hesitated for a moment, and finally his gaze stopped at Lu Yuanqiu: "Before that, I want to fight Lu Yuanqiu first."
Cao Shuang showed an expression that said, "I guessed it right."
Lu Yuanqiu: "You will only agree to arrange a meeting if you beat me?"
"Not really... I just want to play a game. A girl said you can definitely beat me in basketball, and I want to prove to her that I'm not that bad." Li Bowen looked very serious, clasping the basketball with his five fingers.
Su Miaomiao smiled and said, "I guess that girl is the girl you like, right?"
Li Bowen was speechless.
Is it so easy to guess what a boy is thinking?
Lu Yuanqiu stepped forward and said, "Then stop talking nonsense and start fighting."
"Hehe, my brother Qiu is so famous that even the girls in No. 10 Middle School are his little fans." Cao Shuang said with a smile.
Bai Qingxia looked over.
Cao Shuang was a little scared for a moment, and then immediately added: "Maybe she is also your little fan girl, Mr. Bai."
Bai Qingxia felt that the title "Mr. Bai" was too unfamiliar to her. Cao Shuang had been calling her that for nearly half a month, but she still hadn't gotten used to it.
1v1 at halftime.
"You're already in your third year of high school. Have you confessed your love yet?" Lu Yuanqiu took the ball and asked while standing outside the line.
Li Bowen glanced at him and didn't answer, putting on a defensive posture. Lu Yuanqiu smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
He didn't dunk this time, but just made a normal layup. His skillful and smooth movements made Li Bowen unable to react in time. Until he saw the basketball go into the basket, a look of excitement and unwillingness to admit defeat appeared on Li Bowen's face.
But the result was still the same. Li Bowen frowned, his excitement gradually turned into dejection. Lu Yuanqiu scored every time, and his jump was too high to be defended.
"Let me try to score a goal..."
Li Bowen looked a little embarrassed when he spoke.
Lu Yuanqiu: “…”
As a result, he was blocked just after making a layup. Li Bowen's smile disappeared, and he cursed loudly on the spot, waving his hands repeatedly: "No more playing, no more playing."
Cao Shuang squatted outside the line and said with a grin, "Now you know your crush is right, right? Junior, do you want me to teach you how to pick up girls?"
Lu Yuanqiu mocked him: "You haven't even found your own sister yet, and you're still trying to teach others."
Cao Shuang sneered and squatted on the ground, shaking his butt.
Li Bowen walked off the field, wiped the sweat off his face, and said to Zheng Yifeng, "Actually, I told my parents that they won't be returning to Lucheng until tonight, so they asked me to come over and meet them first. You should be able to meet them tonight."
"That's great." Zheng Yifeng nodded with a smile.
"Are you really my nephew?" He asked after a pause.
"real."
"...Okay, my parents' attitude indirectly proves that you are. So, after all these years of no contact, why did you suddenly come here?"
In response to Li Bowen's question, Zheng Yifeng did not rush to answer. He was not willing to let a student who was about to take the college entrance examination know these things, so as not to increase his psychological burden.
Zheng Yifeng thought for a moment and said, "I'd better talk to your parents in person."
"That's fine... Have you had lunch yet?"
"Just got off the high-speed train, not yet."
"Let's go! Let's go to my house."
Just as Lu Yuanqiu expected, Li Bowen came from a wealthy family and lived in a high-end residential area. Cao Shuang couldn't help but exclaim "Wow" when he entered the door. However, this time, without Ruan Yueru beside him, the scene was a bit monotonous.
No wonder he invited him to his house for dinner. Lu Yuanqiu thought he was going to cook himself, but when he entered the house he found out that he had hired a nanny.
"Auntie, pour tea for my friends. You guys can sit wherever you want. I'm going to take a shower." Li Bowen walked towards a room.
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia were sitting on the sofa. Seeing Cao Shuang trying to touch a jade ornament on the coffee table, Lu Yuanqiu slapped his hand.
Zheng Yifeng stood up and looked around the rest of the house. Su Miaomiao followed him. There was a camera installed in the living room. Zheng Yifeng glanced at the camera and then looked at the photos on the TV wall.
For the first time, he knew what his grandparents looked like.
Logically they should be in their sixties, but they look like they are in their forties. Both of them have a bookish air, and culture and cultivation seem to be engraved in their bones.
Logically speaking, the only link to establish contact with my grandparents is my father, but he is missing.
For many years, Zheng Yifeng even instinctively felt that he had no grandparents.
Zheng Yifeng did not see his mother's photo as he wished, and he thought it would not be placed in the living room.
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia were bored and started playing the clapping game on the sofa.
Cao Shuang sat there chatting with Ruan Yueru on the phone.
The sound of the nanny cooking gradually came from the kitchen.
"You should still remember what my sister looks like, right?" Li Bowen's voice suddenly sounded. He wiped his hair with a towel in one hand and handed a photo to Zheng Yifeng with the other hand.
"It's on the tombstone."
"Poor thing, I can only see you on the tombstone... I'm a bit rude, please don't mind."
"fine."
Zheng Yifeng took the photo and looked at it.
Cao Shuang was extremely bored and hungry, but he couldn't ask why the meal was not ready in someone else's house. He crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa, but his eyes were suddenly fixed on a wooden horse in the living room.
He immediately sat up straight and asked in surprise, "How come you also have this Trojan horse?"
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia looked at it and found that the wooden horse looked a bit old and strange, as if it should have another half to be pieced together to become a complete one.
Li Bowen repeated his words: "Also? Where else did you see it?"
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia looked at Cao Shuang at the same time.
Cao Shuang hesitated and said, "My friend's home."
"Your friend..." Li Bowen asked tentatively, "Isn't her name Ruan Yueru?"
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia looked like they were enjoying themselves.
Cao Shuang: "How do you know?"
Li Bowen had a strange expression on his face. He glanced at Lu Yuanqiu and stopped talking.
"Wait!" Lu Yuanqiu quickly raised his hand.
"The girl who said you couldn't beat me in basketball, couldn't she be Ruan Yueru?"
