Chapter 9: A long time ago
Xu Yucheng had already returned to the dormitory to pack her things. Before leaving, Xia Qingqing came back.
She had a very bad face. After the meeting, she looked everywhere for the senior student but couldn't find him. Now she had to copy so many self-criticisms, and she took out all her anger on Zhao Lingling.
Seeing Xu Yucheng about to leave, he said sarcastically, "Don't think you're great just because I spoke for you."
Xu Yucheng really thought she was crazy, so she said directly, "It's just amazing."
Xia Qingqing didn't expect to be scolded, "Senior won't even look at you."
"I didn't even look at you."
Xia Qingqing was furious and couldn't find anything to say, her face turned green.
Zheng Yu was in a good mood and shouted, "Good job, Orange."
Xu Yucheng smiled at her and said, "Dayu, I'm leaving first."
"Okay, go ahead."
Xu Yucheng dragged her suitcase all the way to the outside of the school, looked around, and saw no one.
She frowned slightly. Didn’t he say he would wait for her at the door?
He lowered his head, took out his cell phone and wanted to make a call, but before he could dial, he was knocked on the head.
Knowing it was him, Xu Yucheng thought of the self-criticism she had just read, which was read in front of him, and shifted her gaze to the shoes.
Zhou Yichen took her box and chuckled.
"Is it funny?" she whispered with her head down.
"Um."
She raised her head and looked at him.
"Isn't it embarrassing?"
"It's not shameful. Cheng Cheng spoke very well."
Xu Yucheng muttered, "No one would praise a self-criticism for being good."
He touched her head and said, "Okay, be happy. We are off early today. I will take you to eat something delicious."
It wasn't until they were sitting in the hot pot restaurant that Xu Yucheng remembered and asked the person opposite her, "Shouldn't you be in class?"
Zhou Yichen put all her favorite foods in it, "It doesn't matter if one or two sections are missing."
She was surprised. Is this the confidence of people with good grades?
Halfway through the meal, Xu Yucheng suddenly said, "I left something at home. Let's go back after dinner."
Now the two of them live in an apartment near the school, and they have to go home to get some of the things they need on a daily basis.
"good."
Zhou Yichen was still a year away from adulthood and couldn't drive, so the two had to take a taxi back home.
Nanyuan Villa.
Zhou Yan looked at the man who had returned and was not polite to his son at all. "Since you are back, go cook. Chengcheng must be very tired after the military training. Make something nutritious."
Zhou Yichen said helplessly, "We just finished dinner."
"Then go wash some fruit."
The father and son are exactly the same, but Zhou Yan is more mature and steady.
Xu Yucheng smiled secretly. It had been like this since she was a child. Although she was temporarily staying at Zhou Yichen's house, she could always feel the family love.
She trotted towards the person on the sofa, "Mother Wen!"
Wen Yuyang smiled and said, "Chengcheng, come sit down and have a rest."
She is in great shape and you can't tell that she is already a mother of two children. Time has not left any traces on her face and she is still as beautiful as when she was young.
She also has a daughter who is two years younger than Zhou Yichen and now lives abroad with her grandfather.
"How was the military training?"
"It's okay, not too tiring."
"That's good. Now you and Xiaochen are in the same school. If you encounter any problems at school, go find him."
Xu Yucheng's sweet and soft voice sounded, "Okay."
Zhou Yichen came out with a plate of fruit and sat down next to her.
Hand her the washed strawberries.
Wen Yuyang said, "Xiaochen, you two are living outside now. You have to take good care of Chengcheng. Do you hear me?"
"Um."
Zhou Yan fed the washed grapes to her mouth, "Yangbao, open your mouth."
Wen Yuyang didn't feel embarrassed and ate the grape from his hand.
Xu Yucheng watched their interaction, her eyes curved into beautiful crescent shapes. Ever since she could remember, Dad Zhou and Mom Wen had always had such a good relationship.
Mother Wen loves eating grapes, so there is a large vineyard behind the villa. Father Zhou has always treated her like a child.
Zhou Yichen has become accustomed to the way his parents get along with each other, and has been eating dog food since he was a child.
After sitting on the sofa for a while, Xu Yucheng went upstairs to pack her things.
She packed a few pieces of clothes and took some other daily necessities. Finally, she walked to the desk and put a photo of her and Zhou Yichen into the box.
Including the suitcase she brought from school, there were two suitcases in total, and the driver took the two of them to the apartment.
After running around for so long, Xu Yucheng felt a little tired and leaned back on the sofa as soon as she entered the house.
Zhou Yichen put a box in each hand and went downstairs after putting them in her room. He asked her softly, "Do you want to soak your feet?"
"Yes!" Foot soaking is the most comfortable.
When he finished pouring the water and came out, the person on the sofa had already put on a face mask and was sitting there playing with his phone.
Xu Yucheng was browsing the school's forum.
The new content is some military training videos.
As I was scrolling down, I suddenly saw a familiar name.
Zhou Yichen is the top student in Class 1, Grade 2, and also the school idol of No. 1 Middle School.
This interested her and she opened the comment section.
They were all words of praise, and the comment with the most likes was: Zhou Da, the campus hunk, a well-known figure in No. 1 Middle School, is extremely handsome, but he is too aloof. Others would politely refuse love letters from people they don't like, but our campus hunk simply ignores them.
She looked up at him, still saying, "School hunk, so cool."
Zhou Yichen caught her gaze and his expression softened.
Xu Yucheng: I don’t seem to be very cold.
"What are you looking at?" He saw her shaking her head.
"Look at you."
"Um?"
"Here." She handed the phone to him, "Look at our No. 1 Middle School's school hunk."
He took a look and asked, "So beautiful?"
"Of course not, he's incredibly handsome."
Zhou Yichen's lips curled up.
Xu Yucheng soaked her feet and continued to scroll down. There was so much content on the forum, and Zhou Yichen alone accounted for half of it.
Maybe soaking her feet was too boring, so she just kept brushing them, not even noticing that the water was getting cold.
At the very bottom of the forum, she saw the familiar name again.
It's about Dad Zhou and Mom Wen.
"Zhou Yichen, come and see!"
She shouted to the person coming out of the kitchen.
Zhou Yichen thought something had happened and strode closer.
"What's wrong?"
His eyes fell on the content on his phone.
[He is Zhou Yan from No. 1 Middle School, a solitary man, gentle and bright. She is Wen Yuyang from No. 1 Middle School. One has poor grades, the other is top of the class. These two people are together. She heals him, and he changes for her...]
It’s been a long time since I posted this, please click on the comments.
[I'm an administrator of Tieba. I saw this story while cleaning up the posts. I thought it was beautiful, so I reposted it. I want it to stay.]
Xu Yucheng looked up at him.
Zhou Yichen was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that one day he would be able to see his parents' stories from the past. At that time, his parents should have been about the same age as he is now.
He lowered his eyes to look at her, "It's beautiful."
She smiled and nodded heavily.
"Dad Zhou used to be a loner, but it was Mom Wen who healed him." Xu Yucheng could imagine what a beautiful scene that was. "She is his light."
His fine hair half-covered his eyebrows, his eyes were deep, and there was a softness between his brows. "She is also becoming his light."
She thought he was talking about his parents and agreed, "Yeah."
After a pause, he added, "You have perfectly inherited their strengths."
Zhou Yichen reminded her, "If you don't take off the mask, it will dry out."
Ah!! Xu Yucheng completely forgot!
When her hand touched the edge of the mask, it was indeed not as soft as before. Her face fell, "Zhou Yichen, why didn't you call me earlier?"
He pressed hard on the floor with each step he took, heading towards the bathroom.
Zhou Yichen was left sitting alone on the sofa, with a smile on his face.
She picked up her phone, which was still on, and looked at the post.
After a while, a friend request popped up on the page.
He wanted to ignore it, but then he saw the note above. Lu Ran? A boy's name?
When I clicked on it, I saw that it was someone named Lu Ran who added her through the class group.
Zhou Yichen narrowed his eyes and deleted the message.
