Good news and bad news
In the end, Shen Xuyang still didn't tell Wen Yu. He was reluctant because he didn't want other students to find out that he brought a cell phone.
But in the end, Wen Yu made him surrender obediently with just a few words, and let that classmate take several group photos for them.
Before the classmate left, Shen Xuyang repeatedly warned him not to leak the secret, as he didn't want his phone to enter the office again.
Shi Nannan looked at Shen Xuyang's worried expression and said jokingly, "Is it really that serious? It's not the first time. Aren't you very capable?"
Shen Xuyang stared at Shi Nannan and asked, "What do you think?"
Shi Nannan was asked back by Shen Xuyang, and she felt cold all over, but Shen Xuyang's worry was still necessary. After all, that was the dean's office, easy to enter but difficult to leave.

As the end of December approaches, there is always a good news and a bad news. After the good news, the faces become more depressed and desperate day by day, and the bad news will continue until the winter vacation.
Since Wen Yu's birthday, Shi Nannan has had a few days of extremely boring school life, and she looks forward to eating her favorite food at noon every day.
In the cafeteria, Shi Nannan grabbed her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, which are usually hard to buy. After all, when they went downstairs to the cafeteria, there was already a long line of people, so whether they could get it depended entirely on luck.
Chen Xing looked at Shi Nannan's gloomy face and asked, "Don't you love sweet and sour pork ribs the most? Why don't you feel like eating them today?"
Chen Xing has been busy reviewing recently and hasn't talked much with Shi Nannan in the classroom.
Shi Nannan said weakly, "Xingxing, why is New Year's Day always so close to final exams? Can't we have final exams first, then New Year's Day, and then go straight to winter vacation?"
"Every New Year's Eve I think about the final exams. The closer it gets to winter break and Spring Festival, the less I feel like studying."
Shi Nannan spoke so miserably that Chen Xing didn't have the heart to expose her.
Chen Xing said, "What's the connection between the two? Regardless of which one you pass first, the final exam won't be cancelled."
Shi Nannan rubbed her eyes, which were unable to cry, and said, "You're right, but I'm under a lot of pressure for this final exam."
"I don't want to be outdone by Shen Xuyang again. I only have one goal, and that's to be one point higher than him."
"That way I can keep making fun of him until next semester, and I can spend the Spring Festival without any worries."
Chen Xing listened to Shi Nannan's seemingly insignificant goal and said, "Nannan, have you ever thought about applying to a university?"
Shi Nannan's sadness came quickly and dissipated quickly. In short, it did not affect her mood for the whole day.
Shi Nannan took a bite of a piece of pork ribs and tasted the flavor she had been longing for. She was instantly healed by the delicious food.
Shi Nannan said, "I thought about it, but I didn't pass the exam. You also know that with my grades, I will definitely not be able to go to university."
Chen Xing knew that Shi Nannan's parents didn't have any big expectations for her. After all, even if Shi Nannan couldn't go to college, they still expected Shi Nannan to inherit the family restaurant and just do the accounting every day.
It seemed that Chen Xing never asked Shi Nannan what she wanted to do in the future, and they did not realize the existence of pressure until their senior year of high school.
It was during this semester that Chen Xing decided what he would do in the future, but Shi Nannan has always lived one day at a time.
Chen Xing asked, "So, is there anything you want to do after graduation? Like something that you can stick with for a long time?"
Shi Nannan swallowed a mouthful of rice, chewed it a few times, and then said, "Yes, I write novels."
"If there really is no school to go to after graduation, then I can just inherit the family business. I can also slack off and write novels. Isn't that great?"
Shi Nannan never keeps overnight worries in her heart, and her optimistic attitude is precious.
Shi Nannan smiled and said, "Xingxing, don't worry. If you have no food to eat in the future, come to me. If I have a bite, you will have one too."
Chen Xing smiled and said, "Okay, you still think of me."
Shi Nannan said proudly: "That's right, since you are my best sister, I must think of you."
Chen Xing knew that Shi Nannan was a very good friend and she was very glad to be friends with her.
Shi Nannan was halfway through her meal when she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Xingxing, do you want to spend New Year's Eve with me?"
Chen Xing felt that Shi Nannan's tone didn't sound like a good thing. She remembered that Shi Nannan's family was very busy every New Year's Eve. There were many people eating out that day, and Shi Nannan was forced to go to the store to help every time.
Once, Shi Nannan hid in Chen Xing's house just to read a novel, but with Shi Nannan there, Chen Xing's house was very lively on New Year's Eve.
Chen Xing asked, "Did your parents ask you to stay in the store to help again?"
Shi Nannan said, "I won't help you this time no matter what. You don't know how tiring it is. If it weren't for the pay, I wouldn't compromise."
Shi Nannan's family's restaurant is still very popular, but because it has been expanding recently and funds are tight, Shi Nannan's parents have not hired any more waiters and can only use Shi Nannan as a laborer.
Chen Xing asked, "So, how are you going to spend the night? Are you going to read novels all night again?"
Chen Xing felt that Shi Nannan stayed at home more than her during holidays. Chen Xing also wanted to go out and play, but Gao Yamei was always worried, so she spent most of her holidays at home.
But during the holidays, Shi Nannan would read novels at home, in the library, or at Chen Xing's house. When they were in junior high school, they would often ask Shen Xuyang to go out to play, but Shi Nannan would eat and drink after walking a few steps, and in the end, the outing turned into shopping and eating.
Shi Nannan chuckled and said, "This time is different. This is our last New Year's Eve as high school students. It's very memorable."
Chen Xing said: "So?"
Shi Nannan said: "So, are you willing to go to the temple with me to burn incense and worship Buddha?"
Chen Xing was shocked and asked, "What? Go to the temple?"
Shi Nannan hurriedly waved to Chen Xing, "Keep your voice down, they are all looking at us."
Shen Xuyang and Wen Yu also saw them. After all, the cafeteria was not big, and normal conversations next door could be heard, not to mention that Chen Xing called out.
The girl next to Shi Nannan and Chen Xing left in a hurry, and Wen Yu and Shen Xuyang sat over.
Shen Xu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing in the temple? Isn't it the temple of marriage?"
Shi Nannan looked at Shen Xuyang's disgusting face, clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, saying, "What does this have to do with you? Don't even think about following me secretly this time."
Every year, Shi Nannan would go to the temple to burn incense and pray to Buddha before the final exams, hoping that he would bless her with satisfactory results.
Chen Xing didn't know whether to say it was useful or not. Anyway, Shi Nannan's grades were very stable every year and didn't increase by a single point.
Shen Xuyang asked: “Who follows you, can’t I pray?”
Shi Nannan said: "Then why don't I see you going up the mountain every time?"
Every year when Shi Nannan goes to the temple, she always sees Shen Xuyang at the foot of the mountain. When they first met, Shi Nannan was hiding from him, not wanting to be discovered and afraid of being laughed at by him, but he always found her.
So every year after that, Shi Nannan would always change to a different temple, but she was always seen by him. Sometimes she even wondered if Shen Xuyang was following her every day for no reason.
