Back to my parents when I was seventeen

Seeing them appear, You Shuzhen's eyes lit up, "Ningning."

Xu Chu Ning raised the corners of his lips, "Mom."

You Shuzhen responded and greeted Shen Yubai and Shen Sinian, "Would you like some water?"

Shen Yubai: "Sorry to bother Aunt You."

You Shuzhen smiled and said, "What's the trouble with this?"

She saw Shen Yubai helping Xu Chuning carry her schoolbag, and she smiled and said, "I also want to thank you for sending Ningning back."

After pouring water for the three people, You Shuzhen continued to watch TV and let the three people enjoy the fan for a while as it was too hot outside.

After finishing the water, Shen Yubai's cell phone rang. He took it out and looked at it, then said calmly, "I'll go answer the phone."

"I guess it was the driver calling." Shen Sinian said.

Xu Chu Ning also guessed that it was the Shen family calling. It was understandable that the two of them didn't often go back to the Shen family when they were in school. Now that it was summer vacation, Mr. Shen and Sang Menglan must want them to live at home instead of two grown boys living alone outside.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuning asked Shen Sinian: "Are you going back to the old house during the summer vacation?"

Shen Sinian looked at her and said, "I have to go back for a few days."

He looked at the worry on Xu Chu Ning's face and comforted her, "Don't worry, I have a strong ability to adapt."

Xu Chu Ning believed this, because Shen Sinian came to them inexplicably and quickly adapted to the situation and even integrated into their community.

However, she is not familiar with the Shen family now, and she doesn't know whether the Shen family has any of those messy things reported on the Internet or in newspapers in the wealthy circle.

"Take good care of yourself," Xu Chu Ning warned. "If you are unhappy living here, just call me."

Shen Sinian raised his eyebrows, "Okay."

He looked at her, "I'll come see you when I'm free."

Xu Chuning nodded, and then asked, "When will we go over to Min Jian?"

Shen Sinian: "He told me to have a good rest for two days, and then he took me to visit the company and meet the director."

That was the audition for the movie that Min Jian had talked about with Shen Sinian before.

Xu Chu Ning understood, "Tell me if you have anything to say."

Shen Sinian: "I know."

Hearing his answer, Xu Chu Ning hesitated, "Do you think I'm too long-winded?"

"..."

Shen Sinian was stunned, not knowing why Xu Chuning asked this. He quickly shook his head, "Of course not."

He wished Xu Chuning would talk more.

He really liked Xu Chuning's nagging and her reminders on everything. Even if she would repeat herself, Shen Sinian still liked it.

Because he will not be able to see this kind of Xu Chuning in the future.

So he cherishes this person who even reminds him of the trivial matters.

The two were chatting when Shen Yubai came back from the phone and asked, "What are you talking about?"

The two turned to look at him and said in unison: "Nothing."

Shen Yubai: "..."

He raised his eyes, his gaze moving between the two of them. Now it was his son and his future wife, were they both keeping a little secret from him?

Thinking of this, Shen Yubai sneered a little unhappily, "The driver will be here soon."

I said this to Shen Sinian.

Shen Sinian said "oh" and immediately became depressed. "Are we going back to the Shen family today?"

Shen Yubai did not answer his question directly. He said calmly: "Don't want to go back?"

"Not really." Shen Sinian said, "I thought about it."

In fact, he also missed Sang Menglan.

However, his current identity is the son of Shen Yubai's uncle, so he naturally cannot be too close to Sang Menglan. Sang Menglan is also polite to him, not as easy-going as before.

Shen Yubai stared at him for a while, then turned to talk to Xu Chuning, "Will the store be closed for the summer vacation?"

Many small shops near the school will be closed for a period of time during the winter vacation.

Xu Chuning didn't expect Shen Yubai to still care about the store. She nodded, "Yes."

Shen Yubai lowered his eyelashes, "Will you return to Ningcheng?"

Xu Chuning nodded: "How do you know?"

Shen Yubai paused and asked in a low voice: "When will you go back?"

"I haven't decided yet," Xu Chuning told him, "What's wrong?"

Shen Yubai: "It's okay."

He was silent for a moment, then said, "Let me know when you're leaving."

Xu Chu Ning was stunned for a moment, vaguely understanding his hint, "You have something to tell me?"

"Well, let's talk about it when you want to go back." Shen Yubai said.

Xu Chu Ning frowned, "Can't tell now?"

"It's no use saying it now." Shen Yubai was very direct.

Xu Chu Ning choked, looked at his nonchalant look, and said in a depressed tone, "Okay."

After a while, the Shen family's driver arrived.

Xu Chuning watched the two of them get into the car, watched the black car drive into the main road, and finally disappear without a trace, and a feeling of loss welled up in his heart.

They could still contact each other every day and meet occasionally, but for some reason, she just felt reluctant and unhappy.

Noticing Xu Chuning's mood changes, You Shuzhen asked her to go home and rest, and take a good vacation after the exams.

Xu Chu Ning said no, it would be better to be busy.

But on this day, the shop closed a little earlier than usual.

After returning home and washing up, Xu Chuning was about to do his summer homework, but You Shuzhen stopped him, "Why are you doing your homework right after the exam?"

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Ningning, relax yourself."

Xu Chu Ning was speechless, "Mom, I want to finish writing early and go on vacation early."

"..."

Xu Chuning insisted, and You Shuzhen didn't know what to say.

In the next few days, Xu Chuning took her summer homework to the shop. When there were customers, she helped out. When there were no customers, she sat on a small stool and bent over the wooden table to concentrate on writing.

On the fifth day after the exam, the final exam results came out.

Meiji Junior High School's winter and summer report cards are posted on the school bulletin board. Students who live nearby can go directly to the school to check them. Students or parents who live far away and don't want to go to the school can call and send a message to the teacher to inquire about the report card.

Similarly, Xu Chuning and his classmates also have a class group, and transcript announcements will also be posted in the group.

When Miao Xue sent a photo of her report card to the class group, Xu Chuning was writing a test paper in the store. She had written a lot of papers in the past few days and was about to finish her summer homework.

As I was writing, my cell phone rang.

Xu Chu Ning looked at the incoming call with a bit of surprise and picked up the phone, "Hello, Xi Tong?"

Deng Xitong said "oh" and asked excitedly: "What are you doing?"

Xu Chu Ning: "Doing summer homework."

Deng Xitong choked slightly and muttered softly, "You're already writing after the holiday?"

Why doesn't she play by the rules at all?

Xu Chuning: "Once you're done, you can have fun with peace of mind."

Deng Xitong was speechless, "Okay."

Xu Chu Ning laughed, "What do you want from me?"

"The final exam results are out!" Deng Xitong then remembered why she called her. "I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Xu Chu Ning was stunned and asked, "I'm not the top student in the grade anymore, am I?"

Deng Xitong didn't expect her guess to be so accurate. She hummed weakly, "Yes."

"The good news is that Shen Sinian is the top student in the grade?" Xu Chuning asked.

Deng Xitong was shocked: "How did you know?"

Xu Chu Ning smiled but said nothing: "I guessed it."

After the last monthly exam, Xu Chuning knew that as long as Shen Sinian finished the test paper carefully, he would be the first in the grade sooner or later.

Xu Chuning is better at Chinese than Shen Sinian, but she is weaker in math and English than Shen Sinian. Moreover, Shen Sinian can get full marks in English, but no matter how good she is in Chinese, she can't get full marks.

Deng Xitong cried out, "Shen Sinian is really a man who makes a splash when he does something quiet."

Xu Chu Ning smiled with a little pride: "That's right."

"?"

Deng Xitong listened to her tone and asked in confusion: "You lost the first place in the grade, why are you still so happy?"

Xu Chu Ning sighed, then said silently, "Maybe it's because I'm friends with the top student in the grade?"

No.

She was happy because her son was top of the class and she was proud of him.

But I can’t say this to Deng Xitong.

Hearing this, Deng Xitong thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense."

The two chatted on the phone for a while before reluctantly hanging up.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Chuning opened QQ and logged in.

After logging in, before she had time to check the report card in the class group, she saw the message from Shen Yubai, asking her if she would be in the store that afternoon.

Xu Chuning was suspicious: [Yes, what's wrong? ]

Shen Yubai: [I'll come later.]
