Chapter 506: Chapter 506 Intentional
Sheng Tang put her school bag in her grandmother’s room, then went to her own room to change into a different set of clothes.
Grandma had already come back home.
"Grandma, how did you make that lotus root stir-fry last time?" Gu Shiting came over to help and casually asked Grandma.
Grandma’s lotus root dishes were always tender and tasted wonderful, and Sheng Tang really seemed to love them.
Gu Shiting silently took note of this.
He planned to learn how to cook it so he could make it for Sheng Tang in the future. No matter how good the cooks at his home were, they couldn’t replicate the taste of Grandma’s homemade dishes.
Gu Shiting thought that Sheng Tang would definitely miss her Grandma’s cooking in the future, so he cunningly planned to learn how to make every dish she liked.
"Lotus root stir-fry isn’t just randomly thrown together," Sheng Tang said from the doorway.
Grandma scolded her, "You, always just eating and not doing any work, and now you have the nerve to make sarcastic comments! Go wait to the side!"
Sheng Tang: "..."
The little darling was just dethroned like that.
All because of this scheming pup, Gu Shiting, vying for attention.
As dinner was almost ready, her parents and younger brother came home one after another.
Seeing Gu Shiting, Sheng Zong was quite happy. "Brother Ting, I collected a figurine last time, do you want to see it?"
Gu Shiting: "Let me take a look."
He was actually willing to lower himself to play with the little boy.
Sheng Zong’s figurine was a second-hand one he had found in a flea market.
"It would have cost at least two thousand at its original price, right? It was slightly damaged, so I got it for just one hundred and twenty," Sheng Zong said proudly.
Gu Shiting didn’t know much about figurines, but he played along and nodded, saying, "That’s really a bargain."
Sheng Zong was extremely proud.
It’s really easy to make kids happy.
Whenever Gu Shiting came over, the atmosphere in the house got a lot better. He was very much welcomed by everyone in the Sheng Family.
Over dinner, Sheng Tang brought up the topic of the school’s broadcasting host position.
"...I didn’t really want to participate, but it’s hard to turn down the homeroom teacher," Sheng Tang explained, "But I doubt I’d get selected anyway."
Her mother consoled her, "It’s okay if you don’t get selected, you’re almost in your final year and will be busy."
"That’s what I think too," Sheng Tang said.
Gu Shiting then asked her, "Do you want to participate?"
Sheng Tang shook her head, "Not really."
Unexpectedly, the next day at school, Gu Shiting messaged her to congratulate her.
Sheng Tang: "What are you congratulating me for?"
"You might have been picked as the interim broadcasting host," Gu Shiting said.
He had Song Chen keep an eye on it for him.
So, Song Chen was the first to hear the news and reported back to his young master.
Sheng Tang: "..."
Honestly, she didn’t feel happy at all.
She was even curious why Yang Mingming didn’t stop it. It was just a reading script of over five hundred words; no matter how skillful Sheng Tang was, there was little room for creativity.
If Yang Mingming wanted to play dirty, there was a high chance Sheng Tang would get knocked out.
"Now that I’ve been chosen, I should prepare well. It’s just for this semester," Sheng Tang thought.
With May Day approaching, there were just two months left in this semester, only eight weeks, and it would pass quickly.
She decided to temporarily let go of the matter.
After the morning reading class, the homeroom teacher came in to announce the good news to the students.
"Although it’s only temporary, there’s a chance to become the permanent host next semester," the homeroom teacher said. "Let’s give a round of applause for Sheng Tang."
A warm round of applause filled the classroom.
At the same time, the school made a bulletin board announcement about it.
Many students saw it.
And some gossipers posted the news on the school forum.
Yang Mingming’s little friends saw it and were indignant, "Why should she replace Mingming?"
But Yang Mingming herself just smiled slightly and didn’t mind.
In fact, she had voted for Sheng Tang.
