This period of time in the evening is a rare time for us to relax together.
Chen Cheng collapsed on the sofa, his eyes accidentally glancing at Lingxue who was wandering in front of him, and he reached out and hugged Lingxue into his arms.
Ye Xi, who was sitting nearby reading a book, saw this scene and smiled faintly as if he had discovered something.
Ling Xue... seemed to be deliberately swaying back and forth in front of Shen Cheng when Shen Cheng had nothing in his arms.
Lingxue rarely struggled, but just shook her feet, looking a little depressed.
"Lingxue, what's wrong with you?" Shen Cheng couldn't help but ask when he noticed Lingxue's abnormality.
Lingxue shook her head, her tone equally low: "Nothing..."
Shen Cheng tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.
Anyway, guessing a girl's mood was not Shen Cheng's strong point, so Shen Cheng simply stopped thinking about it and turned to Lingxue and said, "Lingxue, how about we go out and play tomorrow?"
"Ah?" Lingxue was stunned and stopped shaking her little feet.
After a moment, Lingxue turned her head and asked in confusion, "What happened? So sudden?"
"Hmm..." Chen Cheng sorted out his words and said, "Except for taking you to Huihui's hometown and my hometown during the Chinese New Year, I don't think I've ever taken you on a proper stroll around Mio City, right? Haven't you always wanted to see the outside world?"
"Who... who wanted it!" Ling Xue's face turned red, and she subconsciously showed her little fangs.
Turning her head back, after a while, Lingxue said in a soft voice, "If that's what you want, then it's not impossible..."
"Yeah." Chen Cheng smiled and nodded: "I want to go shopping in Mio City with Lingxue, is that okay?"
Lingxue's petite body trembled, then she raised her head and whispered, "Then... then I'll reluctantly accompany you."
After estimating the time, it was time to go to the school to pick up Chen Die and Xiang Xin to go home. Chen Cheng put Ling Xue down, said goodbye to the girls, and went out.
He drove all the way to the gate of Mio City No. 2 High School. After parking the car, Shen Cheng got out and sat outside in the breeze, quietly waiting for Shen Die and the others to finish school.
The dismissal time for senior high school students is staggered with that of freshmen and sophomores. Senior high school students will be dismissed twenty minutes after freshmen and sophomores.
At this time, the first and second year high school students had already finished school, and there were obviously fewer cars parked at the school gate.
"Hey, little brother, you're here to pick up your sister from school again!" After Shen Cheng waited for a moment, a familiar voice came from behind Shen Cheng.
Chen Cheng turned around and saw that it was the uncle he often met at the school gate. He smiled and said, "You came to pick up the child after get off work."
"I just happened to be on my way home from get off work." The uncle waved his hand and lit another cigarette.
Since he had nothing to do anyway, Shen Cheng simply started chatting with the uncle about family matters.
"Little brother, how old are you?" The uncle looked Shen Cheng up and down and asked.
"Twenty-three." Shen Cheng replied with a smile.
"Oh, you just graduated from college?"
“It’s been almost a year since I graduated.”
"Do you have a girlfriend?" the uncle asked suddenly.
Lin Yuhui's figure flashed through his mind, and Shen Cheng nodded.
"Have you ever thought about getting married?" The uncle smiled and said, "I was already married when I was your age."
Shen Cheng shook his head: "At the moment... I haven't thought about getting married."
After all, at present, whether it is the completion of Meng Nian's laws or the matter of "repairing the sky" asked by the dragon head mural, he has no clue at all. The Institute of Basic Biology is still deciphering the text of the mural. Who knows one day Shen Cheng will be suddenly assigned to do a task again.
"That's right." The uncle looked up at the night sky and said, "While you're still young, you should have more fun. Once you get married, you'll have more responsibilities and won't have time to play anymore."
At this point, the uncle paused, then said, "I don't regret getting married so early. The moment I saw my daughter was born, I knew that having fun was no longer that important. I spent the rest of my time with my daughter. I am very satisfied to watch her grow up."
"You must be a very qualified father." Shen Cheng said sincerely.
"Qualified? No." The uncle sighed: "I'm just doing what I should do as a father."
Just at this moment, the school bell rang and the teaching building in the school suddenly became noisy.
The uncle waved goodbye to Shen Cheng, then returned to his car and waited for his children to finish school.
“Brother!”
“Brother Shen Cheng!”
Chen Die and Xiang Xin hurried out of the school, much faster than the other students, and began waving to Chen Cheng across the street.
Running all the way to Shen Cheng, Shen Cheng said helplessly: "Don't look straight this way when crossing the road, remember to watch out for cars."
"hey-hey……"
While driving Chen Die and Xiang Xin back to the cat cafe, Chen Cheng asked, "Is the money enough? If not, remember to tell me."
"Enough, enough!" the two women shouted at the same time.
Chen Cheng is a person who is not good at keeping money, but he rarely spends too much on himself. Instead, he spends all his money on the girls in the cat cafe.
For example, Chen Die and Xiang Xin, Chen Cheng seemed to be afraid that they would starve, so he would stuff red bills into their pockets every now and then. Sometimes, when he was daydreaming, he would suddenly slap his head and give them money.
Shen Die and Xiang Xin both have quite a bit of money in their pockets now, and with their busy studies in their senior year of high school, they don't have much to spend money on except for food, which means they simply can't spend it all.
"By the way, Xiaoxin, I'll take you to your house on the weekend." Thinking of what Xiang Long said to him, Shen Cheng, who was driving the car, said without turning his head.
"Yeah." Xiang Xin nodded and agreed.
After returning to the cat cafe and parking the car, Shen Cheng took the two women upstairs.
"Master meow!" As soon as the door was opened, Cheese was the first to pounce on him as usual.
Chen Cheng hugged Cheese and flicked Cheese's cat ears. Liu Su's voice also came over: "Hurry up and wash your hands and eat. We'll be waiting for you."
After washing their hands, everyone sat around the dining table and started eating.
Chen Cheng held Xiao Qi in his arms, feeding her from time to time. Looking at Xiao Qi's dazed look, Chen Cheng turned to Ye Xi and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Ye Xi, didn't you say that Crow Huanya's ability would be helpful in Xiao Qi's treatment? Can I try it now?"
Xiao Qi raised her dim eyes, looked at Chen Cheng, then looked at Ye Xi, and seemed a little confused.
Ye Xi looked at Xiao Qi for a moment and shook his head: "Your connection with Xiao Qi...is not close enough, not yet."
"The connection...isn't close enough?" Shen Cheng was stunned.
"Just a little bit more." Ye Xi thought for a moment and suggested: "How about this, you hold Xiao Qi to sleep these few days, and I'll take a look then."
