"Hmm, a little bit."
"Is it just a tiny bit, or a tiny fraction?"
Not noticing the difference, Shang Yunmiao asked, "Is there a difference?"
Okay, it seems this saying hasn't become popular yet in 2019.
"There's no difference, I just wanted to talk to you a little more." After glancing around the room, Chen Bing confirmed that Aunt Xuan wasn't there. So he boldly reached out and put his arm around Aunt Xuan's daughter's shoulder, pulling the petite girl into his arms affectionately.
Xiao Shang, who was being held, adjusted her position and, finding a more comfortable one, stopped moving. Despite her timid demeanor at school—hesitating for ages even over a simple kiss—she was a hundred times more proactive at home. In contrast, Chen Bing, preoccupied with keeping an eye on Aunt Xuan and Uncle Shang, seemed rather timid.
Fortunately, Uncle Shang is away on business today, and Aunt Xuan is on the phone with her family in the bedroom, so it's okay for Chen Bing to be a little bolder for now.
"That sounds like you're just trying to comfort me." Xiao Shang buried her face in Chen Bing's waist, her lips pressed against his. The vibrations from her voice made it feel ticklish.
"Well, I just wanted to talk to you a bit more. Speaking of which, are you worried that the New Year's Eve party might be canceled because of the power outage?"
"Yes, I've thought about New Year's Day."
"Oh, I see." Chen Bing placed her hand on Shang Yunmiao's head, stroking along each strand of her hair, almost like petting a small animal.
In Chen Bing's mind, Shang Yunmiao is like a little animal. Sometimes she's like a little rabbit, shy and obedient; other times she's like a little puppy, lively and sincere. And what they have in common is that they're both adorable.
"Don't worry, there will definitely be New Year's Day. Counting today's delay, tomorrow is Wednesday, the day after tomorrow is Thursday, and the day after that is Friday. The school definitely can't let classes be delayed for four whole days. They will find a way to restore the power."
"What if it's not fixed until Friday?" Shang Yunmiao looked up at Chen Bing with concern.
"If it's fixed by Friday, we'll get it done on Friday. If it's not fixed by Friday, we'll get it done after the New Year's Day holiday."
Hearing Chen Bing's arrogant words, Shang Yunmiao's mood improved considerably. She chuckled softly and then said, "There's no such thing as a free lunch. The school isn't our own."
"Tsk, why isn't it your own? Well, I'll have to explain that to you." Chen Bing was intrigued. He first organized his thoughts, then asked, "Let me test you first. Do you know what the two most important aspects of a school are?"
"Academic performance and professional title?"
"No, no, there is an old saying: 'If you preserve the land but lose the people, you will lose both the land and the people; if you preserve the people but lose the land, you will preserve both the land and the people.' Therefore, for a school, the most important thing should be the teachers and the students."
"Teachers are just titles, and students are just grades, right?" Shang Yunmiao thought to herself, but didn't say it aloud, because Chen Bing's explanation so far seemed to make sense. Teachers and students are people, and grades and titles are the ground.
"Therefore, as long as a school is functioning properly, it must meet the various needs of students and teachers and provide them with good conditions so that it can continuously produce good results and professional titles. In fact, these are the two core things that every school revolves around, and everything else is also centered around these two aspects."
As Chen Bing spoke, he kept waving his hands at the living room in front of him, as if he were pointing out a vast landscape. However, what he said did make a lot of sense.
Maintaining the same position for too long can get tiring, so Xiao Shang kicked off her slippers, rolled over, and lay down next to Chen Bing. She placed her two slender arms on Chen Bing's legs, then smiled sweetly, tilted her head back, and wanted to hear what Chen Bing had to say next.
That's a foul! As a fair and impartial referee, Chen Bing must punish the offending contestant. He glanced around the room again, and after confirming that Aunt Xuan wasn't there, he quickly lowered his head and lightly bit Xiao Shang's lips.
This sudden attack caused Shang Yunmiao's face to turn red immediately. She opened her mouth, which had just been kissed, but hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
Ming, we just kissed a few hours ago, why are we kissing again...?
Seriously, haven't we kissed a bit too many times these past two days? It's almost as many as we've ever kissed in the past, even though we haven't even officially confirmed our relationship yet.
but……
As she slowly lowered her head, a glimmer of light appeared in Shang Yunmiao's eyes.
But she didn't dislike it; she just wanted to kiss him again. Because both times today, Chen Bing had surprised her with his actions, and he had been so quick that she hadn't had time to react.
Thinking of this, Shang Yunmiao, who was already too shy to take the initiative to kiss, raised her head again, blushed, and closed her eyes.
She closed her eyes...
Upon realizing this, Chen Bing, who had originally planned to laugh it off and brush off the matter of the stolen kiss, became shy.
It wasn't that he had a change of heart and felt ashamed of his actions or Xiao Shang's leniency, but rather because the little girl was just too adorable at that moment.
Who would understand? A super cute girl who grew up with you since childhood, with her arms crossed on your lap, her delicate little face raised, eyes closed, obediently waiting for you to kiss her—what an irresistible scene!
If possible, please let me experience this scene every day for the rest of my life!
After taking a deep breath, Chen Bing pursed her lips and stared at Xiao Shang's slightly pouting lips.
He nervously reached out and cupped Xiao Shang's cheek in his hands, looking at her eyelashes trembling with nervousness, before lowering his head deeply and for a long time.
After a long time, or perhaps how long—medically speaking, probably after a full exchange of oral bacteria—Chen Bing finally raised her head again. Shang Yunmiao, who had also kept her head tilted back for a long time, immediately collapsed onto Chen Bing's lap, exhausted, as soon as the kiss ended.
I don't know when we officially started dating, and the two of us, who have been quite celibate throughout this time, finally had a good time today.
As for how it felt, overall it was pretty good. After dinner, Xiao Shang drank a cup of strawberry-flavored yogurt, so it tasted sweet and sour to her. The texture was soft and bouncy, and it was very pleasant to suck on.
Hmm… looking at Shang Yunmiao's deeply lowered head, Chen Bing felt a little awkward. Should we talk about something else to distract her? What was I just saying?
Oh! Right, it's a problem with the school's operational logic. Now I understand.
