Chapter 819 The Feeling of Going Home with My Wife
If you didn't know better, you'd think they were having a bromance.

However, his deskmate didn't have a round face or a beard.

The teacher said impatiently, "I don't expect you to sing well. Hurry up and sing one song to go back. Come on, everyone, let's clap."

The students immediately clapped, and a round of applause erupted.

Seeing that there was no way out, Yu Hui closed his eyes, his Adam's apple bobbed twice, and his hands clenched together nervously.

Watching your departing figure...

"How can we forget something so deeply etched in our memories?"

As the song continued, the noise from the audience gradually faded away.

Almost every student was listening attentively, and even the teacher showed a hint of surprise on his face.

My deskmate kept his eyes fixed on the afterglow, his gaze filled with joy.

You can tell at a glance that someone has a story to tell.

As the last note faded away, applause erupted from the teachers.

"One more song!"

Yu Hui quickly bowed and returned to his seat.

My deskmate chuckled and said softly, "You sang very well."

The people in the alley are all talented.

They're either top students or have their own special talents, except for Deok-sun.

……

As evening fell, the sun slowly sank in the west.

Just as Phoenix Hall placed the prepared cabbage soup on the table, Kim Sun-young came in carrying the pot.

"Is Aze still here?"

"Yes, I'm studying inside."

Kim Sun-young placed the pot on the table, carrying it with her sleeve; it looked quite hot.

"what is this?"

“I made some abalone congee. I got my salary yesterday and went to the market. I saw that this looked pretty fresh, so I bought some for him to eat before he went to the airport. I put the rest in the refrigerator so he can eat it while it's hot.”

Phoenix Hall glanced at the porridge.

He knew that Kim Sun-young's family was not wealthy, so he bought abalone specifically for Taek.

Sunwoo doesn't even know if he'll get to eat abalone.

One is preparing to be a stepfather, and the other is preparing to be a stepmother.

They both had similar thoughts; they both just wanted to be good to each other's children.

"Thank you so much. It just so happens that Aze hasn't eaten breakfast or lunch, and he won't even eat dinner. I was just wondering what to feed him. This is perfect."

Kim Sun-young didn't speak, but quietly looked at him.

A profound silence filled the air.

After a while, Phoenix Hall urged, "Why don't you finish eating before you leave? And call Pearl over too."

A hint of surprise flashed across Kim Sun-young's face, but she still refused, saying, "No, no, I'm leaving."

Watching her retreating figure, Phoenix Hall really wanted to tell her what he had said to Aze that morning.

Looks like I'll have to wait until next time.

……

After evening self-study ended, it was completely dark.

The usual group of four after class, two of them suddenly ran away.

Jung-hwan lied, saying he had something to do and was going home alone.

Actually, he wanted to go back with Deok-sun.

As for Li Renyong, he and Baola agreed last night to have dinner together after class tonight.

There's only one day left until the bar exam. Last night, when Li Renyong called, he mentioned that it had been a long time since they had eaten together, and Paula readily agreed.

At the school gate, Liu Donglong watched the two figures as they walked away, muttering to himself.

He really wants to find a girlfriend.

Sunwoo smiled and said, "Let's go back."

Li Renyong arrived near the trash can, checked his watch, and realized it was almost ten o'clock.

The appointed time was approaching, and he straightened his clothes, waiting quietly.

The time when evening self-study ends is getting later and later these days.

At first, it was eight o'clock, but it gradually became nine o'clock.

It's already 10 p.m.

According to Mike's inside information, as the college entrance exam approaches, evening self-study sessions might even be extended to 11 p.m. Less than ten minutes later, Paula drove up, made a stylish U-turn, and stopped in front of Li Renyong.

The driver's side door opened, and Paula got out of the car.

She looked exceptionally charming today, with her long hair styled in a high ponytail, wearing a brown coat over a loose sweater, and surprisingly, black stockings and white sneakers.

Her collarbone, as white as jade, was faintly visible.

Her beautiful figure perfectly embodies her charm.

After getting off the bus, Paula noticed that Lee Yen-yung was staring at her, and she felt quite smug.

"Hey, why do you always wait for me near the trash can? It stinks."

"Does it smell? Maybe it's because I used to wait for you here."

"I'll just call you Stinky from now on."

"Then I can only call you baby."

Because Paula's name contains the character "宝" (Bao), Li Renyong occasionally calls her "宝" (Bao) in private, but he has never called her "宝宝" (Bao Bao).

Paula's face was slightly flushed as she quietly looked at him.

Li Renyong immediately understood that this was a plea for praise.

“Our Paula is so pretty~, especially the stockings on her legs.”

Paula smiled upon hearing this and said, "Get in the car."

Li Renyong got into the passenger seat and asked, "What are we going to eat?"

Paula said mysteriously, "It's a secret. You'll find out when we get there."

"Making it all mysterious."

Then, seeing the books in the car, he said, "Just got back from the library?"

Paula said, "I went to the library to read for a while after the exam."

Li Renyong praised, "You're so attentive. By the way, it's getting late, let's just grab something to eat."

Paula said, "None of your business, just sit still."

Upon hearing this, Li Renyong was somewhat puzzled. Where exactly were they going to eat?

Paula started the car, stepped on the gas, and the engine roared. In the blink of an eye, it had gone more than ten meters.

The intense push made Li Renyong feel uncomfortable. Even with the seatbelt, the excessive speed made him instinctively grab the handle.

"slower."

Paula pursed her lips slightly upon hearing this.

At this time of day, apart from students going home from school, there's hardly any traffic.

There might be more cars outside the city center.

She likes the speed, especially driving at night with the wind blowing.

But Li Renyong didn't like it, so Paula had no choice but to slow down.

Half an hour later.

Looking at the busy main road, Li Renyong said, "This isn't the way home, is it?"

Paula smiled and said, "Of course it is! It's the way home."

A place instantly came to Li Renyong's mind.

New village!

I've been there a few times since I bought the house.

Strictly speaking, it's my future home.

As dusk fell, the wheels of a car made a soft, crunching sound as they rolled over gravel.

Paula turned the steering wheel all the way to the right, and the headlights traced a half-circle on the wall.

"Here, get out of the car."

The streetlights shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows on their shoulders.

The lights were on in the house windows.

Paula took out her keys from her wallet, turned them to the right, and opened the door.

Li Renyong looked around outside the door and said, "Has no one bought the houses next door yet?"

Paula took off her shoes, put on slippers, and also grabbed a pair for Li Renyong.

"I'm not sure, but no one should live here. Hurry up and put on your shoes, let's get ready to eat."

The living room was spotless, with the sound of steam rising from the pot audible.

Li Renyong always had a feeling of returning home with his wife.
