On the internet, people often commemorate their childhoods. Chen Bing, a young man from a small town who was one of them, found himself back 24 years ago, in the small town of his birth, after his ...
After saying "Okay," Shang Yunmiao fled as if she were escaping. After all, it was a rather inappropriate topic, so it was perfectly normal for the little girl to feel a little shy.
Taking advantage of the free time after dinner, Chen Bing sprawled on the sofa and took out her phone to deal with some school matters.
Although the epidemic has gradually eased in the past few days, schools do not seem to have any plans to reopen.
But this is good too, since the exams are over and it's better to stay home and rest than to go to school all day.
Final exams are in just one week, but given the current situation, it's hard to say whether they'll be held online or in person. If they're online, wouldn't we be able to go home for winter break right now?
The question had just popped into Chen Bing's mind when a file appeared in the class group chat.
After clicking through, Chen Bing was very pleased to learn that due to the pandemic, the school's final exams for this semester would be conducted online.
That's fine then. You can stay a little longer to enjoy yourself, and go home when you're tired.
Chen Bing put her phone aside, got up and went to the balcony. Looking at the streets outside the window that were gradually coming back to life, she began to think about what she should do to have fun in the next few days.
Hmm... how about I stay home and become a developer instead of going out? Spending the whole winter naked in bed with Xiao Shang, just lazing around, isn't such a bad kind of happiness?
Shaking his head, Chen Bing felt he needed to consult Xiao Shang's opinion on this matter. Of course, I was referring to what they would do for the next couple of days. After all, telling Shang Yunmiao, "Stay home these next two days and play the developer's game with me!" was just too shameless; Chen Bing wasn't that brazen.
After thinking it over, Chen Bing got up and left the living room, intending to seek Shang Yunmiao's opinion.
In Shang Yunmiao's room, Chen Bing successfully discovered the prey's trail.
Judging from her current actions, she is probably going to change the sheets and duvet cover.
Chen Bing, who had intended to attack Shang Yunmiao from behind, abandoned the idea after being unexpectedly discovered.
"Oh, what a coincidence to meet you here." Chen Bing greeted Xiao Shang with a smile, naturally putting her hand on his shoulder.
Still feeling shy, Shang Yunmiao panicked for a moment when Chen Bing chased her into the room. However, she relaxed a little after seeing that the other party did not make any further moves.
"Hmm...what a coincidence." Following Chen Bing's words, Shang Yunmiao picked up the duvet cover she had just taken off and prepared to put it in the washing machine to wash.
In order to curry favor with Shang Yunmiao, Chen Bing also followed closely behind her, helping her out.
After a quick tidying up, everything that needed washing and everything that shouldn't be washed was thrown into the washing machine. The comforters and pillowcases, which had been stripped of their clothes, were roughly thrown onto the balcony and exposed to the outside world.
Immediately afterwards, Shang Yunmiao instructed Chen Bing to help her get the new quilt from the top of the wardrobe.
"Why?" Chen Bing looked completely bewildered, clearly puzzled by the combat mission that Commander Shang had just issued.
Commander Shang didn't know what Commander Chen was confused about. She pointed to the empty bed, her expression saying, "Isn't this obvious enough?"
Seeing this, Chen Bing, who had been pretending not to understand, finally realized what was going on. With a matter-of-fact expression, he reached out and hugged Xiao Shang, saying, "Why are you bringing a blanket? Don't you want to sleep at my place tonight?"
"Ah... this..."
Whether out of shame for her own foolishness or for what was about to happen that night, Shang Yunmiao blushed slightly and said, "Then, then put your blanket out on the balcony to air it out too. You haven't slept in two days."
From Xiao Shang's words, Chen Bing learned why her face was flushed.
Smiling smugly, Chen Bing accompanied Shang Yunmiao to his room. After tidying up the room, Chen Bing finally remembered why he had come to see Shang Yunmiao.
"By the way, there was a notice in the class group just saying that the final exams will be online. So, what do you think? Are you going out to play these next couple of days? Or are you staying home?"
Not understanding the deeper meaning behind staying at home, but after independently guessing what might happen, Shang Yunmiao gave her own answer.
"Hmm... How about staying home for three days, going out for three days, and then going home after six days?"
After hearing this, Chen Bing counted the time on her fingers. Today is December 28th, and if we don't count today, it will be six days later, which means she will go home on January 4th.
"Not going home for your birthday?" Chen Bing asked, slightly surprised.
In previous years, no matter what special circumstances there were, Chen Bing and her partner would always spend the holidays at Shang Ping's house with their parents. It seems that they never spent the holidays alone together.
"Can't I?" Shang Yunmiao sat on the bed with a smile, placed her two little hands on her lap, and asked obediently.
"Of course, why not? It's just that I'm a little sad that my little Shang seems to have become a bit naughty." As she spoke, Chen Bing pinched Shang Yunmiao's cheek. "Then I'll buy the train tickets now, and after that, we'll go to the supermarket together... No, no, it's still early. Should we stay home and watch a movie, and then go to the supermarket later to buy some groceries for dinner?"
"Hmm! What about lunch? It seems like we don't have much food left at home."
Faced with this problem, Chen Bing pondered for a moment and then slightly modified the plan.
"How about this? It's almost eleven o'clock. After buying the tickets, let's find a place to have lunch, and then we can go to the supermarket to buy groceries for dinner. We can watch the movie after we get back."
Without hesitation, Shang Yunmiao accepted the suggestion and immediately got up to pack the things she needed to take with her when she went out.
Looking at the little girl's energetic figure, Chen Bing nodded with eyes full of love, and then began to do her own thing.
After everything was settled, the two left home hand in hand.
