Li Xunli came back from her vacation and personally drove to pick up Shen Qingqing.
After all, when Shen Qingqing started school, both she and her husband were away on business trips and couldn't send their child to high school.
Now that she's back, of course we have to come pick her up right away, otherwise Shen Qingqing will definitely cause a scene.
"Mom!" Shen Qingqing opened the passenger door and was overjoyed to see Li Xunli sitting in the driver's seat.
"Aunt Li." Wu Fangyi has become quite familiar with the Shen and Li families over the past few years.
Li Xunli replied with a smile, "How has this past month been? Are you adjusting well to your studies and life?"
Shen Qingqing sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt: "It's alright. Fangyi and I haven't encountered any difficulties. We have a washing machine to wash our clothes, and we take turns cleaning the dormitory in pairs. We haven't encountered any problems with our studies yet."
Li Xunli laughed when she heard this, "That's good. You've never lived in a dormitory before, and Mom was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt to living and eating with other people."
Hearing Li Xunli say this, Shen Qingqing vaguely remembered that she didn't seem to have this kind of adaptation problem in her previous life, but at that time neither Shen Rongzhou nor Li Xunli cared about whether she was adapting or not.
At that time, the two of them were still struggling to make ends meet.
Shen Qingqing snapped out of her reverie, quite smugly, "Well, you should know who my parents are! They've lived in dorms before, how could I not adapt!"
Li Xunli was amused by her behavior, pretended to be fed up with her, started the car, and drove away.
Wu Fangyi watched from the back seat of the car as Shen Qingqing automatically transformed into a carefree little child in front of her parents, and felt a pang of envy as she swayed slightly.
She was lost in thought, thinking that if she had children in the future, she would definitely make sure her children were loved just like Shen Qingqing.
Li Xunli drove steadily all the way to the entrance of the residential area.
"Hey? Why didn't Mom drive to the garage?" Shen Qingqing was about to get out of the car when she saw the entrance to the residential area outside the car and turned to look at Li Xunli.
Li Xunli dialed the phone, "Yangyang, bring Xiaohong to the gate of the community. Mom will be waiting for you here!"
After finishing the call, Li Xunli answered Shen Qingqing's question: "We're not eating at home today, we're taking you out to eat."
Shen Qingqing's eyes lit up: "Where are we going to eat? What are we eating?"
“Didn’t you always say you wanted to eat barbecue? A new place opened on Chaocheng Avenue. I saw it when I came back a couple of days ago. I’ll take you guys there today.” Li Xunli looked at Shen Qingqing with great affection.
"Great! Great!" Shen Qingqing immediately perked up.
Shen Yangyang and Shen Hong had already been picked up by Li Xunli. However, since it took a long time to wait for Shen Qingqing, Li Xunli didn't bring the two children with her. She also told them in advance that they were going to have barbecue that night and told them not to take a shower beforehand.
To avoid having to shower again after eating barbecue and then smelling like barbecue.
Because Shen Yangyang and Shen Hong were still young, eating barbecue was too likely to cause them to get a sore throat. In order to be fair to both of them, we couldn't take Shen Qingqing to eat alone, since the smell was too strong and we really couldn't resist.
So it wasn't until now that Li Xunli took her three children out for barbecue for the first time.
However, Shen Qingqing had already eaten with Chen Man and Wu Fangyi when they went out alone before.
The first people to actually eat barbecue were Shen Yangyang and Shen Hong, who excitedly ran hand in hand to the car.
"Mom, older sister, Sister Fangyi!" Shen Yangyang and Shen Hong greeted each person obediently.
"Okay." Li Xunli responded, "Are the car doors closed properly? If they are, we'll head out for barbecue!"
Shen Yangyang looked at it, and still not entirely sure, she turned it on and off again. "It's done!"
It's rush hour right now. People are getting off work or leaving school around this time, so the traffic is quite heavy.
Li Xunli, mindful of the four children in the car, didn't dare drive too fast. She slowly moved forward following the flow of traffic, only overtaking when she saw a relatively certain opportunity.
The roads were jammed, and it was an hour later when we finally arrived at the barbecue restaurant.
This barbecue restaurant is quite popular. If Li Xunli hadn't called ahead to reserve a table, they probably would have had to wait an hour or two to get a table after they arrived.
Then, as Shen Qingqing followed the waiter to their reserved table, Wu Fangyi suddenly tugged at her arm.
Shen Qingqing turned her head to look at Wu Fangyi in confusion.
"Over there." Wu Fangyi raised her chin and pointed in a direction.
"Hmm?" Shen Qingqing looked over and saw a familiar figure. "Lin Ziyang?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ziyang looked up and met their gaze. The next second, the man waved his hand and rushed over.
"Hey! Long time no see!" Lin Ziyang still had that same smug look on his face, and his tone was still nonchalant.
"Long time no see~ What are you doing here?" Shen Qingqing raised her hand and waved as she asked.
Lin Ziyang smiled and pointed to the group of people at their table: "Isn't it the holidays? We saw this restaurant on our way back from school and thought we'd have a meal here before the holidays."
After saying that, he added with some emotion, "You two are quite something, one the top scorer in the city and the other the second best. You've stolen the limelight from the two top classes at Hongxing Middle School."
"How did you know?" Shen Qingqing asked, puzzled.
