Upon arriving at the classroom of Class 2, Grade 11, Xia Yunuo found Kang Ping, who had arrived early, and sat down in the empty seat next to her.
He greeted Kang Ping quietly, and Kang Ping nodded slightly in response before continuing to read her book.
Xia Yunuo had gotten used to Kang Ping's reactions and didn't see anything wrong with it; in fact, she felt it was quite good.
The two usually kept to themselves, and Xia Yunuo would only ask Kang Ping questions quietly when she encountered something she couldn't understand.
Kang Ping was happy to answer her questions, treating it as a review session.
After answering the questions, the two went back to their own business, with virtually no further conversation.
After Xia Yunuo sat down, she was still thinking about Song Yunshen calling her " Nuonuo " earlier, and felt a tingling sensation in her heart.
He was completely swayed.
It's still a little hot.
Since he's already asked for it, surely I can do it too?
As Xia Yunuo thought this to herself, her head suddenly felt dizzy, and she dared not think about it anymore.
While Xia Yunuo was thinking about this, Song Yunshen and Xu Zhuoyue had already arrived at Class 8's classroom and found seats in the back row.
"You're on summer vacation, when are you going to come out and hang out with your buddies?" Xu Zhuoyue couldn't help but complain as soon as he sat down. "You can't just forget about your brothers once you have a woman, right? Besides, you can't be with Xia Yunuo all the time."
"I don't spend all day with her," Song Yunshen said, counting on his fingers. "But I have a tutoring class in the afternoon, and my cousin is coming over to play games in the evening, so I don't have time."
"What kind of tutoring are you taking?!" Xu Zhuoyue was shocked, having never heard him say that before. "You little brat, you've been secretly working hard, haven't you?"
"Uh... it's in English," Song Yunshen said. "My dad forced me to take it, I had no choice."
"That's a bit tragic." Xu Zhuoyue, unaware of the truth, even had the leisure to mourn for Song Yunshen condolences."
"It's nothing, it's just an hour a day." Song Yunshen waved his hand, appearing nonchalant. "You reap what you sow. By next semester, our English levels will be on completely different levels."
"Heh, I don't believe you for a second." Xu Zhuoyue curled his lip. "It might actually be a little useful, but the effect only lasts for a short time. After school starts, you'll immediately revert to your original self."
You can't expect to get good results with English just by cramming for a summer vacation.
It's mainly a process of gradual accumulation.
Therefore, Xu Zhuoyue was not optimistic about the effectiveness of Song Yunshen's tutoring, but he was just disappointed that his good friend could not find the time to go out and play.
"It's not that I'm completely without time." Song Yunshen patted his shoulder. "If you're free tonight, playing games together is no problem."
"What are we playing?" Xu Zhuoyue asked, "PUBG?"
"Anything is fine."
"Is your cousin coming?" Xu Zhuoyue asked again. "I'll also call Fat Dragon, then we'll form a team."
" Brother Tao not coming?"
"Heh." Xu Zhuoyue curled his lip. "Go ask him yourself."
Song Yunshen sensed something was amiss and immediately became interested. He raised an eyebrow and beckoned to Zhong Long, who was nearby, " Fat Dragon, come here!"
"What's wrong, Brother Shen?" Zhong Long asked, leaning closer with a friendly expression. "Is something the matter?"
"A meal." Song Yunshen took out his meal card and slapped it on Zhong Long's palm. "Is there something going on with Deng Shitao?"
"Oh, this?" Zhong Long chuckled as he pocketed Song Yunshen's meal card, rubbing his hands together. "He's dating Shen Yue now, and they're really in the middle of it. He hasn't been hanging out with us lately."
"No wonder," Song Yunshen realized, "This kid is really something else! He forgets his brothers as soon as he gets a woman. Next time, he'll have to treat us!"
"How dare you say that?" Xu Zhuoyue said with a look of disgust. "Can't you have some self-awareness?"
"What's wrong with me?" Song Yunshen said seriously, "At least I can find time to play PUBG with my buddies."
"Whispering sound."
Xu Zhuoyue pursed his lips and mentioned playing games with Zhong Long. Zhong Long immediately patted his chest and said it was no problem.
After the English class started, the classroom quickly quieted down.
Jiang Wenpei wore a pretty dress today, looking youthful and radiant, and she even had lipstick on, so it was obvious she was going on a date this afternoon.
She definitely wouldn't dress like this after school starts, but since it's summer vacation now, there aren't so many rules.
It was just tough on the male students who came to English class. Occasionally, when they saw Jiang Wenpei get up to patrol, and a wisp of perfume blew by, they couldn't help but steal a glance at Teacher Jiang's long, white legs.
However, Song Yunshen didn't look at it. After finishing his English test, he secretly took out his phone and started chatting.
Xia Kening was dragged to the library again early in the morning.
After learning about the relationship between the three sisters, Song Yunshen finally understood why Xia Kening had suffered so much after being taken to the library.
So it turns out that Xia Jinshu was the one watching over her.
Mama Xia is quite good at raising children. Unlike some parents who just scold and complain, she sets a good example for her children and then asks them to study.
Although Xia Kening is only her younger sister, the principles are the same.
Being taken to the library, Xia Kening couldn't chat with Song Yunshen all the time, only exchanging a few words occasionally.
Midway through, she forwarded a video to me on Douyin. Song Yunshen thought his phone was on silent, so he clicked on it directly.
The next second, the video started playing, startling Song Yunshen that he quickly closed Douyin, but it was too late.
Jiang Wenpei a smile and held out her hand to Song Yunshen: "Give it to me."
With a helpless expression, Song Yunshen took out his phone and handed it to Jiang Wenpei.
"You're not paying attention in class. You can come looking for me again after the two classes are over." Jiang Wenpei snorted, put Song Yunshen's phone into her pocket, and then picked up the test paper on his desk to check it. "Have you finished the test paper?"
"I've finished writing," Song Yunshen replied.
"Oh? He actually finished writing it." Jiang Wenpei glanced at it briefly and, upon discovering that Song Yunshen, initially thought the kid had just scribbled something.
After carefully checking it, I found that the kid's writing was actually quite good; many of his answers were correct.
This surprised Jiang Wenpei, who wondered if her tutoring sessions were really that effective.
It's already showing results in just one week?
"Not bad." Jiang Wenpei handed the test paper back to him. Seeing that he had done reasonably well and was in a good mood today, she let him off the hook and didn't scold him. "Check it after you're done. There are still quite a few questions you didn't get right."
"Okay, Teacher Jiang." Song Yunshen obediently accepted.

Xu Zhuoyue, standing to the side, was laughing so hard his shoulders were twitching; he couldn't stop gloating.
Song Yunshen clicked his tongue, resigning himself to his bad luck.
After the next English class ended, he hurriedly ran to Jiang Wenpei's side, smiling obsequiously, and said, " Teacher Jiang, can I have my phone back now?"
"Here, take this." Jiang Wenpei took her phone out of her pocket and handed it to him. "Your English should have improved a lot by now. Keep it up! And don't sneak around playing on your phone during class, understand?"
"I'll listen to Teacher Jiang!" Song Yunshen stood at attention to take the beating, but he didn't take a word to heart.
After Jiang Wenpei waved him away, Song Yunshen dashed off to Class 6 classroom.
As soon as I entered, I saw Xia Yunuo turning her head from time to time to look in the direction of the front and back doors.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Song Yunshen walk in, and Song Yunshen quickly waved to him.
"Why are you so slow today?" Xia Yunuo asked curiously.
Since the classrooms of Class 6 and Class 8 are both on the second floor, Song Yunshen is usually responsible for grabbing seats.
Surprisingly, Xia Yunuo has already arrived at the classroom, but Song Yunshen is still nowhere to be seen.
Just as she was getting worried, Song Yunshen finally arrived at the classroom.
Otherwise, Xia Yunuo was already planning to get up and go to Class 8 to find him.
"Ahem... Peipei caught me using my phone in class." Song Yunshen coughed a little sheepishly. "I only got my phone back from Teacher Jiang after class."
"Huh?" Xia Yunuo was startled. "Are you alright?"
For her, being caught using her phone by the teacher was a huge deal.
But Song Yunshen waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's alright, it's alright. Teacher Jiang is in a good mood today. She's obviously going on a date this afternoon, so she didn't hold it against me."
"Dating?"
"That's right," Song Yunshen said, "Didn't you know? Teacher Jiang has a boyfriend."
"Really?" Xia Yunuo doesn't usually pay attention to school gossip, so she really didn't know about this.
But she wasn't interested in Teacher Jiang's affairs; she just became a little sensitive when she heard the word "date."
There was still a glimmer of anticipation.
[It's all because of that Little Brat Xia Kening, who forwarded me some Douyin video. I forgot to mute it before I clicked on it.]
At this moment, Xia Yunuo heard Song Yunshen's thoughts and was immediately stunned.
What, is this about my sister?
Ningning is really something; shouldn't she be studying in the library with her sister at this hour?
How come you still have time to forward Song Yunshen's video?!
However, she only secretly complained to herself.
After all, she had become a little more accepting of things after learning the secret between her sister and Song Yunshen.
Since their relationship has already reached this point, there's nothing she can do.
Instead of dwelling on it, it's better to accept it first.
The fact that Song Yunshen calls Xia Kening" Little Brat " shows that in Song Yunshen's eyes, Ningning is just a child.
Nothing particularly special.
Thinking of this, Xia Yunuo felt a little better.
[I wish I could go on a date with Song Yunshen ]
I had previously made a promise with him that I would treat him to barbecue once I received my salary.
[But if that's the case, we'll have to wait until next month, which feels like a long time.]
Hearing Xia Yunuo's thoughts, Song Yunshen, who was sitting next to her, raised an eyebrow slightly, then rested his chin on his hand, turned to look at her, and said with a soft laugh, " Nuonuo."
"Hmm... Ah?" Xia Yunuo's heart skipped a beat when she heard Song Yunshen call her that again. Her heart raced, and she was at a loss for words. "W-what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just feel like you're not quite used to calling me that yet, so I'm just practicing a few more times." Song Yunshen teased her deliberately, saying with a chuckle, " Nuonuo?"
"Um..."
" Nuonuo."
"You, you stop talking..." Xia Yunuo's cheeks flushed slightly, she buried half her face in her arms, leaning on the desk, only her doe-like eyes showing as she timidly looked at him.
"Shall we discuss something?"
"Um?"
"Are you free this Saturday?" Song Yunshen asked.
"I have to teach Yingying this afternoon," Xia Yunuo, sounding embarrassed. "Don't you have something to do after 3 PM too?"
"That's fine in the morning," Song Yunshen said. "You shouldn't be busy this morning, right?"
Saturday morning... Xia Yunuo thought for a moment.
She's really fine.
But on weekends, does Ningning always go to Song Yunshen's house to play every morning?
So that means...
"Is Saturday morning okay?" Xia Yunuo asked softly. "I'm fine with that."
I'm so sorry, Ningning.
You can play the game anytime anyway.
The thought of being able to take over the time that originally belonged to Xia Kening made Xia Yunuo's lips curl into a slight smile, and she felt happy.
Song Yunshen didn't think much of it and instead suggested, "Why don't we just tell my aunt and uncle and let us play by ourselves in the morning?"
"We'll eat out at noon, and then we'll go to my uncle's house to pick up Yingying."
"Then take her out for a walk, don't let her always stay cooped up at home."
"Huh?" Xia Yunuo was stunned upon hearing this. "Is this okay? Isn't it a bit inappropriate? After all, I'm a tutor..."
"Preschool teachers teach basic knowledge, it's not like they stop teaching once we go out," Song Yunshen said seriously. "Teaching her to recognize the flowers and plants around her, to get close to nature, and to participate in sports is also part of preschool education."
Xia Yunuo was completely bewildered by what he said, thinking that it actually made a lot of sense.
But will his aunt and uncle agree?
"Well... I'm a little embarrassed to say it... it feels like an excuse to be lazy."
"I wasn't expecting you to say it anyway," Song Yunshen couldn't help but reach out and pat her head. "I'll say it myself, if not, forget it."
"Hmm..." Xia Yunuo felt the warmth of Song Yunshen's palm, gently pursed her lips, and couldn't help but feel expectant.
The students from Class 5 around them stared wide-eyed as Song Yunshen touched Xia Yunuo's head, as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.
Just then, Song Minggui walked in from outside the classroom and immediately noticed his nephew's thieving hand. He paused and took a deep breath.
This kid...
They've completely captivated that young girl.
Don't let this cause Xia Yunuo's grades to drop.
Song Minggui walked to the podium, his brows furrowed slightly, a hint of worry in his heart.
He had previously consulted Zhang Zhidong about Xia Yunuo's family situation, and he was quite supportive of Song Yunshen's secret help in finding her a tutoring job.
But if you end up helping a young girl and then end up pulling her into your arms, that would be a bit too much.
If this had happened to any other student, Song Minggui might have actively intervened.
But since Song Yunshen was his nephew, Song Minggui had no choice but to suppress his emotions and plan to find a time to talk to him.
Math class begins.
The first lesson begins with doing practice problems.
Song Yunshen finished quickly. After completing the questions that Song Minggui had highlighted, he quietly took out his phone to play.
Xia Yunuo saw him secretly playing on his phone as if it were her own, and she immediately became nervous, glancing at Song Minggui on the podium every now and then, afraid that he would look over.
Song Yunshen was much more relaxed.
After all, the person on the podium is his own uncle.
So what if someone sees me using my phone?
Have fun, okay?
As soon as he turned on his phone, he found himself bombarded with messages.
[ Xia Kening ]: Where is everyone?
[ Xia Kening ]: I saw that you read my Douyin! Please reply!
[ Xia Kening ]: Are you deliberately ignoring me?
[ Xia Kening ]: I'm so annoyed with doing my homework, come chat with me!
[ Xia Kening ]: Brother~
[ Xia Kening ]: (voice)
[ Xia Kening ]: Aren't you going to reply yet?
[ Xia Kening ]: You're not actually paying attention in class, are you?
[ Xia Kening ]: Class must have ended a long time ago! Why haven't you replied yet?
Song Yunshen glanced at Xia Kening's message and wondered what she said in the voice message, but since he was still in class, he was too embarrassed to listen directly.
In the end, I had no choice but to transcribe it into text to see what it said.
[Brother, please pay attention to me!]
Goodness, you can tell from the content that it's poorly made.
Before, I would only do it when he forced me to, but now I'm completely shameless and just say whatever comes to mind.
This is unbearable.
[ Song Yunshen ]: It's all your fault! You forwarded me those videos. I didn't even mute them. You just opened them during class. My phone was confiscated, and I only just got it back.
[ Xia Kening ]: Hahahahahahaha!
[ Xia Kening ]: Serves you right! You've finally met your match!
Song Yunshen clicked his tongue, clearly dissatisfied with her attitude.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Very good, very energetic. You wait until tonight, I'll definitely make you laugh even more.
[ Xia Kening ]: No! I was wrong!
The two interacted for a while.
Xia Yunuo saw this and guessed that Ningning must be chatting with Song Yunshen. She pursed her lips, looking a little unhappy.
Finally, the bell rang, signaling the end of class. Xia Yunuo immediately stopped writing, rummaged through her bag, pulled out a bag of Nut, tore open a small opening, and handed it to Song Yunshen: "Want some?"
"Oh, thank you." Song Yunshen reached out, took a nut, and popped it into his mouth. He then glanced at the packaging of Xia Yunuo's bag of Nut and fell into deep thought.
[This bag of Nut looks so much like the one I gave Xia Jinshu yesterday! Are they the same brand?]
These thoughts echoed in Xia Yunuo's mind, like a thunderclap.
