Chapter 255: Who Gave You Confidence?

It was just after school, and more and more pedestrians were on the road, rubbing shoulders with students on bikes and on foot.

Chen Ziyi sat in Cheng Ming’s arms, still sitting ladylike on her side, so shy that she grabbed Cheng Ming’s lapel and buried her head in Cheng Ming’s arms.

It’s completely humiliating, and she has to have some face, a high school student can’t act like a child.

“Stop the car, stop the car, just send it here.” Chen Ziyi shouted.

“Really?”

“It’s going to be endless if we keep this up, and if you leave the Ri girls with no time to eat properly, you’ll be dead if you don’t make it to night study.”

Indeed, maybe have to eat out of disposable bowls like Dad, or press on with no food at all.

Cheng Ming stopped the car, and Chen Ziyi jumped down from the car, disgustedly patting the very clean clothes and pants as if they were stained with something dirty.

Cheng Ming didn’t leave right away, Chen Ziyi also stood still, the two of them stood in the crowd and stared at each other, both waiting for the other to turn their heads and go first.

Chen Ziyi covered her mouth and laughed, “Aiya, do you think you owe me? I’m sorry? You’re right if you think so, then my purpose has been achieved, you wouldn’t think that you don’t have to pay for anything, right? There is no such good thing under the sky, everything has a price.”

“Hee hee, the better I am to you, the harder it will be for you, even if you have another girl in your arms, remember the smell I left behind oh go away, I’m going to watch you leave and make it hard for you.”

Whether it is hard or not, show off or not, Chen Ziyi’s good intentions, Cheng Ming took it, the man is to be decisive refusal, mother-in-law like what a man, make it look like a parting of the world.

“I’m off then, bye.”

“See you tomorrow, be careful on the road.” Chen Ziyi said with a wave.

“You too.”

Seeing Cheng Ming’s back submerged in the crowd, only then did Chen Ziyi lift her foot and turn around, murmuring softly, “What a fool, you too, me too ……”

“If you want to be and stand up, don’t even think about it, a scumbag is a scumbag.”

Cheng Ming’s transportation of Xiaoli and Ren to and from school was a fixed route, and they wouldn’t dumbly wait for Cheng Ming to pick them up at the school gate, but would instead walk in the direction of their home.

When they saw Cheng Ming, they waved and shouted for him to call him, and as long as they appeared in the field of vision, Cheng Ming was able to catch them first.

“Brother, it’s too slow, we’re all walking to this stoplight.”

Cheng Li pouted and whined.

Usually, they meet at the last red light and go an extra block.

“Sorry, sorry, there was a bit of traffic.”

The heart is also a bit clogged.

Sitting in the front of the car, Cheng Li inhaled and asked, “Why does brother smell like other girls?”

“There is? It’s your illusion, right ……” said a vain Cheng Ming in a sweaty voice.

“This smell is from Sister Chen?”

“Eh, you can smell this?”

Is it some kind of superpower to guess right straight away?

Even though this world was exactly the same as Cheng Ming’s previous life, which was the ‘real’ world. But even he had been reborn, and Sister Shen Shiao had dreamed of things before she died, so it didn’t seem strange for something more bizarre to happen?

“Because of the smell of shampoo or something like that, if it’s the smell of Sister Xu Juan and Xiao Ren I can’t tell the difference. Of course, three parts rely on smell, seven parts rely on guessing drops, I’m not a dog’s nose, my nose isn’t that smart. But to leave a flavor on your brother’s body, you must be very close, right? Otherwise it’s impossible to leave a faint odor.”

Cheng Li’s eyes sharpened and asked suspiciously, “Does it mean that Brother and Sister Chen are close to each other at school?”

“After all, we’re going to pretend to be a couple in school, so we still need to show our love appropriately. Otherwise people will suspect our relationship and trouble will come to us again.”

“Do you need to be this close for just a show of affection?”

“It’s still a good idea to hold hands and arms once in a while ……”

“Just like that?”

“Or what do you think.”

“Hmph, let’s just say that nothing is likely to happen at school anyway.”

Unfortunately not in school.

Fortunately, Cheng Li, who was attracted to other places, didn’t go through the back box, and the gloves as a birthday gift were inside.

After a hasty dinner, Cheng Ming sends the two little girls to their evening self-studies before coming back to his new home with Xu Juan, which is considered a daily routine.

This is despite the fact that you can only go down the stairs to the parking lot together at school and walk to the front door together at the end of the school day.

But this period of time after dinner belongs to them.

Today, because I skipped class to go dashing, I even missed the short walk from the classroom to the front door of the school.

It’s hard to tell from Xu Juan’s face her mental activities, is she lonely?

Is it scary to be alone in school?

Xu Juan has a history of being bullied in school, though not to the point of bullying.

But childish jokes and sheer malice are also very hurtful.

Or maybe Cheng Ming was too sensitive and thought of Xu Juan as too fragile? It’s not like she’s a little baby, just an autistic child.

Xu Juan is not alone in school.

She didn’t have many friends in the class, excluding Cheng Ming and Chen Ziyi then Zhang Jiajia counted as one.

The relationship with the other girls was average, but they would occasionally chat with Xu Juan.

The last time they were at Cheng Ming’s house, the four of them got together and had a good chat, and their relationship should have gotten better.

Should …… if there is no Cheng Ming.

But without Cheng Ming, they wouldn’t have known each other, except for Zhang Jiajia.

Zhang Jiajia would definitely snitch to Jing about Shuang Shuang taking leave and skipping class today.

Cheng Ming called and told Jing Jing tonight that they had taken time off work to buy a gift for Xiao Li.

No lie, the purpose was indeed this, and the birthday present was bought.

Chen Ziyi also thought of what to give as a gift to Xiao Li.

Being alone with Xu Juan, silence was the majority of the time, and while the tranquility was nice, Cheng Ming was more interested in knowing what Xu Juan was thinking at the moment.

“Did the teacher find out that Chen Ziyi and I skipped class …… ah no, took a vacation?” Cheng Ming asked instead.

Xu Juan shook her head.

“Two big living people disappeared without noticing? That’s right, Chen Ziyi good academic performance, and is a class member, the background is still deep, a class or two is not there, the teacher thought she was called away to participate in some activity.”

As for Cheng Ming, it was pretty much the same, the background piece was still tainted by Chen Ziyi’s light.

“Xu Juan, are you lonely alone in the classroom?” Cheng Ming asked as he opened the door.

It’s not like you’re dealing with Chen Ziyi, you don’t have to be a riddler, beating around the bush with all sorts of innuendo and not speaking in human terms.

Xu Juan stopped her bike and turned her head to look at Cheng Ming, blinking her eyes as if she was looking at a retard.

It’s also true that Cheng Ming is a bit too self-absorbed.

Who gave him the confidence that Xu Juan couldn’t live without him?

Is that the Shimshino sister who was sick?

When their peers reached the fork in the road, Cheng Ming said, “Xu Juan, let’s split up here, I’ll go visit Sister Shen Xiao.”

As soon as I think of Shen Shiao sister is a little bit unable to let go, Cheng Ming also knows that he is a little bit out of his depth, just a girlfriend to be treated with dedication, he also engaged in a fake, big, future ……

Without saying a word, Xu Juan rode her bike head-on into Cheng Ming’s car.

Whether it’s a bicycle or a motorcycle, it’s Cheng Ming’s favorite car, no matter which one breaks down, it hurts.

This scene was déjà vu, when molesting Jing, she would do this.

Angry? Lonely? Jealous?

Cheng Ming lines up again.

However, Jing Jing and Xu Juan’s personalities are so different that they cannot be generalized.

“Then we’ll go back to our new home together and park our bikes, then ride my big motorcycle together to find Sister Shen Shin? Is that okay?”

Xu Juan didn’t speak, and there was no body language of nodding or shaking her head.

“Auntie, say something, yes or no.”

“As you ……” Finally, the word-shy Xu Juan said.

“No, you have to say I want to be with you before I take you with me.”

Cheng Ming began to molest Xu Juan, definitely not trying to take advantage of her, but trying to make her a little more assertive, not a puppet at his mercy.

Xu Juan continued to ride his bike forward.

“Say something.” Cheng Ming soft-pedaled on the side.

“No.”

“If you don’t say it, you won’t take you there, oh, you can omit it if you think it’s too long, saying ‘I want you’ ‘together’ or something like that is fine.” Cheng Ming threatened.

When they arrived downstairs at their new home, Xu Juan parked her car, turned her head and sat on the back seat of the motorcycle, her body separated from Cheng Ming by a fist’s distance.

Is this a rumpus?

But Xu Juan hadn’t been on Cheng Ming’s motorcycle for a long time is all.

Ever since the official start of school after military training, when she took over Cheng Ming’s motorcycle, she had been living alone on her way to and from school, and had only had Chen Ziyi for company since last month.

“I won’t take you unless you hold on tight, it’s going to be dangerous, you have to buckle up.”

Xu Juan closed in on Cheng Ming’s body and gently wrapped her arms around Cheng Ming’s waist.

It wasn’t as hard as Chen Ziyi’s, squeezing Cheng Ming’s insides into a ball, nor did it have a soft pressing feeling like Jing Jing and Sister Shen Xiaoxiao, nor did it have short hands like Xiao Li’s and Xiao Ren’s, so they could only straddle their waists and couldn’t form a closed loop.

If I had to find an adjective, it would be ordinary.

It was a pity that Cheng Ming couldn’t see Xu Juan’s face at the moment, would it be that reluctant expression? Or would it be the same old poker face.

Mostly the latter, I think.

Shen Shin’s house was lit up and he was eating dinner.

When Shen Xiao saw Cheng Ming and Xu Juan in the courtyard, she put down her chopsticks and asked in surprise, “Cheng Ming, Xu Juan, you guys are here so much? Don’t you want to study late?”

“Sister Shen Shin, Second Middle School doesn’t compel students to attend evening study halls, so we’re just here to see if Sister Shen Shin is well.”

“With such loose management, is it really hard for you guys to get into a good university?” Shen Xiao asked skeptically.

“Thanks to you, it’s about as good as it’s going to get.”

“Come, come, sit down and eat together.” Shen Shan said enthusiastically, “Wifey, go fry two more dishes.”

Shen Shan’s wife had already gone to get two pairs of dishes out before he spoke.

Come to Shen Xiaoxiao sister’s house also many times, Cheng Ming also still the first time to see her mother, gave birth to two beautiful big daughter, mother’s bottom is certainly not bad.

It’s just that old age, combined with years of hard work and lack of care, his face is covered in the frost of years, and he looks older than his real age.

“No no no, we just ate, we’re not hungry, we’re still holding out.” Cheng Ming waved his hand and refused.

“Eat some more, it’s all rough.” Shen Shan’s wife said as she handed over the bowls and chopsticks.

“There’s really no need, we’ve really eaten.” Cheng Ming said as he patted his belly.

The hospitality was hard to resist, Cheng Ming took the bowl and chopsticks and said, “Then we can just have some soup, it just so happens that our mouths are a bit thirsty.”

Although asking you “would you like to have dinner together” is mostly a polite remark.

But their family was truly grateful to Cheng Ming, and if they were to brush them off, it would send a chill down their spine.
