Mother Cheng sat on the sofa like a mountain, and Father Cheng walked back and forth with his hands on his hips.
He thought that his son wouldn’t come back tonight, and he and his group of fox friends would do something overnight. He didn’t expect that the lights would turn on and the familiar sports car would appear within ten minutes.
The couple was relieved.
When their son came in, the couple sat on the sofa with a sullen face. They saw their son changing his shoes while talking to the person on the phone, “You haven’t said what you like to eat, sour, sweet, spicy, light, Hunan, Cantonese, Sichuan, do you have any preference?”
He saw both his parents sitting on the sofa. He had an expression that said, ‘why are you sitting there.’ He held the phone and rushed upstairs.
Mother and Father Cheng, “…”
Su Xingchen was stunned for a long time. No one had cared about her taste for many years.
There, she paused when she climbed into bed. She grabbed the ladder and hung on the bed.
Her voice was a little deep as she said, “Sweet.”
“Ha! I knew you liked sweet food!” Cheng Kangyao’s tone made it seem like he won a prize. He hung up the phone, put on his slippers and went downstairs. He went to the kitchen and said to Aunt Liu who was making him supper, “My classmate will come for dinner on Saturday. She likes sweets. You prepare some sweet and sour local dishes.”
The beef noodles that Aunt Liu had made for Cheng Kangyao had already been mushy, so she was now making them again.
When she heard him saying that, she was stunned.
She had been a cook in the Cheng house for many years. She had seen Cheng Kangyao grow up.
In her eyes, Cheng Kangyao was a boy who had been self-centered and had not grown up. Now that the boy suddenly came to tell her that he wanted her to prepare food according to his friend’s preference, she felt like the person she treated as a child grew up overnight.
Aunt Liu smiled and came to the table with a bowl, “Where will you eat here or in the room?”
Cheng Kangyao sat on a chair, “Here.”
Aunt Liu wasn’t in a hurry to clean up the kitchen, she stood by and watched him eat, “Is it the same classmate who came with you last time? You must have a good relationship.”
Cheng Kangyao smiled proudly and shyly, “Of course!” A bowl of noodles was quickly finished. He hummed a song while going upstairs,, but suddenly stopped and said, “Oh, she will come on Friday and Saturday. If she studies English with me, she may stay overnight. You have to prepare her room, and pajamas … “
In his mind, Su Xingchen’s short jacket appeared.
She herself probably knew that the jacket was short and uncomfortable to wear, so these days she had switched it with the school uniform.
He hadn’t seen her wear anything other than these two clothes.
This was extremely rare for students in International high schools.
80% of International high school students were all second-generation rich and their family background wasn’t bad. If they were rich like his family, they were all above the standard.
Even Su Xingchen’s family had opened several car repair shops.
These years the car repair shop was the most profitable. The Su family did make a lot of money, otherwise how could they send all three children to an International school.
Good grades, close to home and provincial focus were one thing, but tuition fees for International schools were really not cheap. The average working family couldn’t afford three children studying in an International high school. 300,000 Yuan, this didn’t include the cost of teaching materials, accommodation, school uniforms, studying tools, and global examination fees.
But he didn’t understand why the Su family treated Su Xingchen so harshly. It made him very dissatisfied with them.
Usually, with his small mind, he definitely couldn’t think about clothes or anything. He thought that one couldn’t enter or leave after the school gates were closed. If Xing Xingchen came too late for tutoring, she couldn’t go back. So she must keep a pair of clothes to change at his place.
But even if she didn’t say, he had been with her for so long. He knew her situation well, she didn’t have clothes at all.
So he was entangled again.
He knew her self-esteem was very strong, and she generally didn’t accept others’ help. During the two years with him, she probably thought that he was her boyfriend, so she accepted his help a little.
The Shā mǎ tè’s and his classmates who lived on campus often played games together. So he knew that the dormitory had strict rules. When the time came, the guard locked the door.The people inside couldn’t get out, and the people outside couldn’t get it.
This was also the reason why those Shā mǎ tès who escaped from the school, played all night in the Internet cafe.
They couldn’t go back.
Aunt Liu packed the tableware and said with a smile, “Alright!”
Cheng Kangyao returned to his room, laid on the bed for two minutes, and jumped up again. He took out the math problems that he had been assigned by the tutor on Saturday and Sunday.
He didn’t understand the question. He took a picture with his phone and sent it to Su Xingchen. He said politely, “How do you solve this question?”
Su Xingchen wrote it directly on the paper and sent it to him.
Her ability to speak was much better than him, and the analysis was clear, so that he could understand it at a glance.
After a while, Zhang Wenqi, who was sitting at her lower bunk shouted, “Su Xingchen, don’t affect my studies if you don’t want to study! You’ve been playing with your phone all the time!”
After speaking, she was like the heroine who was bullied in the idol drama. She held the book in one hand, and buried her head in her arms and cried.
Zhang Wenqi was scared by Su Xingchen before. When Su Xingchen was washing her feet, she ran out and wanted to complain to the director of the Academic Affairs Office. She ran downstairs and found that the door of the dormitory building was locked.
Mother Cheng sat on the sofa like a mountain, and Father Cheng walked back and forth with his hands on his hips.
