Chapter 75: Exposed
Chapter 76: Exposed
Wen Ning explained the questions to Fang Qing the whole night, and their relationship became much closer. It was not until Fang Qing was so sleepy that he was yawning that Wen Ning returned to his room.
The next morning, a group of people packed up and prepared to leave the farm house.
They had stayed here for so many days and it was time to return. Although they did not camp in the mountains as originally planned, they visited many interesting places under the guidance of local people in the next two days, which satisfied the purpose of their graduation trip.
Wen Ning and Fang Qing's health also returned to normal. Considering the situation at home, they immediately decided to buy the earliest ticket home.
When he came here, Fang Qing was alone, and his mind was full of how to get to the place quickly to rescue people. He didn't expect that when he returned, he would be with so many people.
Several teenagers took out their playing cards and started playing cards together. The loser would post a note. Fang Qing sat by the window on the other side, enjoying the cool morning breeze and watching them play cards. He found it very interesting.
Wen Ning, who was sitting next to her, wiped an apple and handed it to her, "Try it. Big sister stuffed it into her bag when she left."
Fang Qing took it and took a small bite. It was crisp and sweet with the aroma of freshly ripened fruit. "Mm, very sweet. You should try one too."
But the apples on the table were quickly divided up by the other people. Seeing that Wen Ning didn't get one, Fang Qing generously gave up half of the apple and prepared to cut it for him to eat, but Wen Ning smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll just eat it."
Then Wen Ning looked at Fang Qing's lips moistened by juice and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He picked up the water on the table and drank several mouthfuls before suppressing the heat in his heart. Then he turned his head to watch his friends play cards to divert his attention.
Fang Qing stared blankly at Wen Ning picking up the cup of water she had just drunk from. She wanted to remind him but found that he had already finished drinking. She saw him sitting upright, turning his head away and not daring to look at her, but his ears were slowly turning red.
It was the first time Fang Qing saw him blushing and she found it very novel. She smiled secretly and slowly turned around while biting the apple. Fortunately, the boys around them were busy playing cards and no one noticed anything strange between them. Fang Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The journey home was much faster, and they got off the bus just after noon. The teenagers parted ways at the station and went home one by one. Wen Ning waved goodbye to his friends, picked up two backpacks, and prepared to send Fang Qing home first.
But as soon as they walked to the street of No. 1 Middle School, they saw Wen's mother who was out buying groceries.
Looking at the gloomy expression on Wen's mother's face, Fang Qing knew that he was finished.
…
Fang Qing sat upright in the chair, lowered his head and looked at the corner of the clothes in his hand, not daring to say a word.
Meanwhile, Aunt Wen's mother was still looking at them with a sullen face. Even without looking up, Fang Qing knew the coldness in Aunt Wen's scrutinizing eyes.
"What's going on with you two?"
Wen Ning thought for a moment and felt that his mother might know about this sooner or later, so he might as well tell her everything. He took a deep breath and was about to explain the relationship between the two of them, but Fang Qing spoke first.
"Aunt Wen, we just met when we were coming back from playing outside, and Brother Wen Ning saw me carrying something, so he helped me carry it."
"Really?" Mother Wen looked at Fang Qing suspiciously, and then looked at her son, but her son was looking at Fang Qing at this time and didn't notice her expression at all.
"Ahem, Wen Ning, I've been here for such a long time and you didn't even offer me a glass of water. Go, get Qingqing a bottle of soda."
Wen Ning wanted to say something after receiving his mother's look, but then he saw Fang Qing shaking his head slightly and looking at him pleadingly. He pursed his lips and turned to go to the kitchen.
After Wen Ning left, Mother Wen softened her attitude, but there was still no warmth in her eyes when she looked at Fang Qing. "Qingqing, we are alone now. Tell your aunt the truth. What happened between you and my son? Are you, are you..."
Fang Qing looked up in astonishment. Although she didn't know what Mother Wen was going to say next, she understood the implicit meaning of her words and quickly waved her hands with a pale face.
"Aunt Wen, you misunderstood. There's really nothing between me and Brother Ning. Please don't think too much about it."
But Mother Wen was not so easily fooled. She looked at Fang Qing with a faint smile in her almond-shaped eyes.
She didn't understand others, and she didn't even understand her own son? Just looking at the way they flirted with each other just now, did she really think she was blind?
However, this girl is getting more and more beautiful. In fact, she doesn’t hate Fang Qing that much, but when it comes to her son, she has to be careful.
His son just passed the imperial examination and won the top spot. He will surely have a bright future. If they start to secretly get married at such a young age, it will definitely become a stumbling block on his road to success.
Although this girl is good, what's the point of just being pretty? Can she help her son realize his dream? Can she support his future? No!
Therefore, she had to nip all the emotions that shouldn't appear in the bud, and she couldn't let a country girl block her son's future...
Mother Wen smiled and grabbed Fang Qing's hand, her tone amiable, "Qingqing, Auntie Wen is doing this for your own good. You're going to be a senior in high school soon, so you have to work hard at this time and not be distracted by other factors. Your elder brother Ning has already graduated, so he can go out and run around, but you can't. You have to hurry up and study. When you get into college, Auntie won't stop you anymore..."
Mother Wen smiled, but she didn't agree in her heart. Humph, when my son goes to college, he will meet all kinds of girls, and then he won't remember you, a country girl!
But Fang Qing was a little surprised. Aunt Wen didn't scold her. According to her previous temper, she should have pointed at her nose and scolded her for being shameless. Why was she so easy to talk to today?
But facing Aunt Wen's kindness, Fang Qing could not refute and could only nod obediently, indicating that he would study hard and not think about other things.
Wen Ning, standing behind the kitchen curtain, had been listening to the conversation in the room. He was originally worried that his mother would scold Fang Qing like before, but he didn't expect his mother to think this way, which made Wen Ning feel ashamed.
I was just afraid that my mother would bully others, but now it seems that I was just being petty. I can't compare to my mother's broad-mindedness.
Wen Ning came out with a soda and handed it to his mother respectfully, "Mom, thank you for understanding us."
Mother Wen picked up the water cup with a faint smile and said nothing, but she was very upset in her heart.
Look at her silly son, his expression changed so quickly just for this girl! However, at least they were both settled down. Who can predict what will happen in the future...
Wen Ning turned around and handed Fang Qing a glass of soda. When Fang Qing looked up, he suddenly blinked and smiled.
Fang Qing took the soda and quickly lowered her head to take a sip. Oh, this guy is flirting with her again. Fortunately, she has gotten used to it in the past few days. She was really afraid of making a fool of herself in front of Aunt Wen.
After a short break, Wen's mother asked Wen Ning to take Fang Qing home. When the two of them arrived at Fang Qing's door, they happened to meet Fang's father who was returning home from work.
The moment he saw them, his face turned pale.
"You two, follow me."
