Chapter 566: Chapter 564: The Kind That Makes You Cry
"..." Too much.
Song Nuan blinked her eyes and asked with a smile, "Are you planning to slap my face or slap my butt?"
Let’s see how you respond!
"The kind that makes you cry."
"..." Ambiguous.
While talking, the blanket was laid out, neatly folded.
This darn habit.
The two of them had argued over folding the blanket before.
Song Nuan stood up with both hands and looked at Lu Yan by the bed: "Later when my roommates come, will they think I was trained in the military?"
"You can tell them you have a firefighter boyfriend," Lu Yan smiled slowly, "the kind that gives slaps."
"Pa——" Suddenly, a slap sound.
Lu Yan was taken aback, standing still, his whole body tensed.
Because, his butt had been slapped by the little girl.
The next second, the little girl smiled brightly and said, "Let me teach you, this trick is called striking first."
"Song Nuan!" He said, reaching out to catch her.
Since he could remember, no one had hit his butt, especially now that he’s so grown up!
"Hahahaha." Song Nuan laughed as she ran out, teasingly: "It really has a lot of bounce."
They came fairly early, so her roommates hadn’t arrived yet. Song Nuan ran downstairs, only to be caught by Lu Yan.
He didn’t chase too fast down the stairs for fear she’d fall.
Lu Yan wrapped her in his arms: "Run again."
"Little rascal."
Song Nuan turned around to hug Lu Yan, not letting him hold it against her: "I didn’t hit you hard, why are you so angry?"
"Let’s go, let’s go." Song Nuan pulled his hand, smiling and playfully whined, "Let’s go eat~"
Lu Yan couldn’t help but laugh.
This little girl, she’s such a cute troublemaker.
Lu Yan pursed his lips: "Next time, you will——"
"There will be a next time." Song Nuan grabbed his big hand: "What, are you going to kill me?"
"..." That’s not quite possible.
...
They walked on the street, during school opening there were quite a few students, and almost everyone cast a glance at them.
If you didn’t mention age, just by looks alone, they were a perfect match.
"My sister and brother-in-law got their marriage certificate today, why don’t you come to my home for dinner?" Song Nuan said, "My parents actually asked me to go back for dinner, but I didn’t go because I thought it was too far."
"Going back and forth is a hassle anyway, and there aren’t that many formalities between us, but if you go with me, then I won’t mind the hassle."
Lu Yan looked at her: "What does this mean? Taking me home to see your parents?"
"Uh-huh." Song Nuan: "Don’t you want to meet the parents?"
Lu Yan smiled: "I’m not quite prepared yet, what if your parents don’t like me? Then wouldn’t it cause trouble for Tang Si and Song Yi?"
"What trouble?" Song Nuan was clever: "I’ve already thought it through, today is their certificate day, and it’s definitely not a day for arguing. If you go back with me today, even if my parents don’t like you, they definitely won’t blow up. Over time they’ll gradually accept you, so today is the best day."
"Besides, if they like you, then today’s a double blessing."
Lu Yan laughed at her words.
"You have quite a sharp little calculation going."
Song Nuan’s eyes curved, her tone sweet and sugary: "Right? See how much I think about you."
"You’re quite smug." Lu Yan tapped her little head: "It’s better to keep it grounded, don’t be too clever."
Meeting the parents is an important matter that should not be taken lightly.
Nor should it be used to gain advantage.
Tang Si was getting his certificate today, he knew, Tang Si had mentioned it before.
Song Nuan pouted: "If you won’t go, then never mind, anyway, you’re friends with my brother-in-law, you can go to my house as his friend."
"I can drive you back," Lu Yan said, "but now isn’t the time to go to your house for dinner, understand?"
Song Nuan shrugged: "I’m not going back, too much trouble, I’ll just call them to give my blessings later, we’ll have plenty of chances to meet anyway."
"You say, when will we have this day?"
Lu Yan swallowed, "Looking forward to it?"
"Of course." Song Nuan: "Isn’t marriage the paradise at the end of love?"
"For most people it is," Lu Yan looked at Song Nuan and chuckled, "Then Nuannuan little cutie needs to work hard."
Song Nuan was full of question marks: "Why is it just me working hard? Shouldn’t it be you proposing, and then we agree and get the certificate?"
The normal process is like this.
Isn’t it that she would have to kneel and propose to him?
Song Nuan imagined the scene where she kneeled and said, "Lu Yan, marry me."
Eekh, Song Nuan shrugged and shook her head, too shocking!
"Why is your thought process so strange?" Lu Yan held her hand, his tone steady: "What I mean is, work hard and grow up quickly, so your boyfriend can marry before 30, alright?"
Song Nuan blinked, thought carefully, she’s only 18 this year, still two years away from the legal marriage age.
"Ah..." Song Nuan: "In two years, you’ll indeed be almost 30."
"Alright, on my 20th birthday we’ll get the certificate, but you should be ready to propose to me." Song Nuan: "Otherwise, I won’t marry you."
Lu Yan laughed gently.
Pinching her little face: "Will do, Song Nuan, little classmate."
Grow up nicely, grow up well.
...
After eating, Song Nuan and Lu Yan parted ways because Lu Yan had something to attend to back at the team.
Song Nuan returned to her dormitory and met her roommates.
Since high school now had mixed dormitories, the roommates weren’t from her class.
Four-person room.
A particularly enthusiastic one named Li Li: "I’ve seen you before, but never dared to speak with you, I can’t believe we’re roommates now."
"I often see you at the top of charts, you’re always number 1, your grades are so good, do you have any tips?"
Song Nuan was looking at physics questions, and being interrupted in her train of thought while studying felt particularly unpleasant.
She pursed her lips, kindly saying: "Read more books and practice more."
"But reading books also requires skill and tips—everyone reads books similarly, how come you always come out on top? I really envy you."
Li Li grabbed Song Nuan’s hand: "Stop reading, chat with us."
Song Nuan’s body was shaken back and forth.
"..." Good grief.
Are girls really this annoying?
When she shook Lu Yan like this, would Lu Yan find it annoying?
She frowned, lifted her face from the book, expressionless: "A good brain is the key."
Li Li: "..."
She was rather awkwardly smiling.
Wasn’t this saying her brain wasn’t great?
"Alright then."
Another roommate, Cheng Yuwen, said, "Look at her, the academic star, studying diligently. You’re bothering her there. We don’t understand the world of the academic stars; we should stay away from them. How could we have common topics with them?"
"I heard before that this Song from Class 3 is basically buried in textbooks every day, just living with them. Her academic star persona is sold pretty well."
Cheng Yuwen: "But I saw her before at the ski resort bar and elsewhere."
Li Li: "...Huh?"
"Turns out she likes to play too."
"I thought she really clung to her books every day."
"..." Persona my ass.
She was indeed reading before.
In this day and age, is quietly reading a book on your own a mistake now?
Song Nuan raised her head and smiled, "Yeah, I like to play too."
"I not only play, but I play every day, every night, and even bring my boyfriend to play. I book the whole place to play, and yet I can still score first place. I’m still the teacher’s favorite, jealous?"
She squinted her eyes and smiled purely, "I can make friends with you and take you to play together, it’s okay."
"If you also want good grades, just plead with the teachers to put you in the same class as me. Sit close to me during tests, and I’ll pass you the answers."
"After all, as friends, such a little favor can be helped." Song Nuan: "And now we’re roommates too, we’ll have to take care of each other more in the future."
Her words, dripping with sarcasm.
But, that small face bursting with a smile is flawless.
She spoke so sincerely that no one could find a point to refute. If they do, it’s on them for being ungrateful.
Cheng Yuwen, Li Li: "..."
Song Nuan didn’t have a good impression of these two roommates; meeting two idiots on the first day of accommodation.
Cheng Yuwen gritted her teeth, "Song Nuan’s family is rich, we naturally can’t compare, can’t go to such high-end places."
"Is there really a need to show off wealth like this?"
"Huh?" Song Nuan’s eyes filled with doubt, "I thought this is everyone’s daily life. Isn’t it normal to book a place for peace when you play?"
She once again said sincerely, "Sorry, I really didn’t know your daily lives were so dull. If I knew, I wouldn’t have said such things. After all, all my friends live like this."
Daily life!? Booking a place just to play?!
Listen to this, is this even human speech!
Song Nuan packed away the physics book, "But actually, I don’t really like booking places either; because I feel it’s boring without many people."
"Are you having dinner? I can treat you."
Song Nuan looked at them with a smile.
That look seems to say, if you’re not afraid of being poisoned, come and eat.
Li Li, Cheng Yuwen: "No thanks."
Their expressions didn’t look very good.
Song Nuan seemed pure and well-behaved; one would think she was an obedient little bunny. Unexpectedly, she was so tough.
And, in campus, girls like Song Nuan are especially prone to jealousy; pretty, good grades, rich family, always talked behind their backs, never doing anything right.
Song Nuan had heard rumors before, saying she bought her grades, knew the answers beforehand, and so on.
In any case, they said her grades weren’t real, achieved only through cheating.
At this moment, a timid girl walked in at the door, wearing glasses, with a few freckles on her face. Her clothes were washed and faded; she glanced at Song Nuan and others but dared not speak.
In contrast to the three girls inside, this girl seemed poorer.
Song Nuan glanced at her but said nothing, continued doing her own thing.
She wasn’t fond of making friends and socializing, just focused on her own affairs. What others do is none of her business.
Cheng Yuwen and Li Li looked at her.
Li Li immediately went up to pull her, "Are you Ning Qiu?"
"Why did you come so late after school started? It’s almost dinner."
Ning Qiu seemed timid, "Sorry, missed the bus, so I walked."
She walked inside, carrying a scent of sweat.
Cheng Yuwen: "Go get a shower quickly, give me your suitcase, we’ll help you make the bed. Let’s go out for dinner later."
"...Okay, thanks."
While Ning Qiu went in to shower, Li Li and Cheng Yuwen made the bed, still gossiping.
Cheng Yuwen: "This ugly old bedding, just how bad is that girl’s family situation?"
"I don’t get it; with such conditions, still coming to this school to study; it’s really tough."
"Tsk...so poor, never seen before."
Song Nuan found their yapping annoying, stood up, and bumped Cheng Yuwen while walking out.
Cheng Yuwen shrieked, "What are you doing?! I almost fell."
"Only trash blocks the way, dogs bark aimlessly, and idiots gossip behind backs." Song Nuan smiled, "May I ask which one are you?"
"Song Nuan, what do you mean?"
Song Nuan shrugged, "Literal meaning."
Finished speaking, she turned and walked out.
"Explain yourself." Cheng Yuwen grabbed Song Nuan, not letting her leave.
"Let go."
Cheng Yuwen: "Wishful thinking. Don’t think that just because the teachers like you and you have money, you can bully people like this."
Holding that, she pushed Song Nuan.
She never thought this person could still make a move; she slipped and fell.
Song Nuan winced in pain.
Grabbing the bedpost to stand up, the physics book in her hand "smacked" onto Cheng Yuwen’s face.
Li Li looked at the two about to fight and hurriedly went to pull them apart.
