Hearing that he was going to turn around and question them both, Song Jiaxuan frowned slightly.
Song Jiayao, standing nearby, slammed her hand on the table in anger. "Who was following you? We just happened to be passing by and saw you acting suspiciously, secretly having dinner with another girl."
"First, I wasn't acting suspiciously. Second, I didn't sneak around." Song Yunshen his eyes. "Since you said you two were just passing by, why did you come into this store? You two are the ones acting suspiciously, aren't you?"
"It was definitely wrong of us to spy on you eating with someone else," Song Jiaxuan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "But who was that girl just now? You two seemed to get along quite well."
"Exactly!" Song Jiayao chimed in, "He put grilled meat on your plate and handed you tissues; their relationship is definitely not ordinary."
"Guess?" Song Yunshen Shen chuckled, without giving a direct answer.
"You went out to eat with other girls behind Xia Yunuo's back, and you're still so arrogant?" Song Jiayao slammed her hand on the table three times and snorted.
" Xia Yunuo and I are just friends. What's wrong with me going out to dinner with someone else?" Song Yunshen retorted. "If you think it's wrong, just tell her directly. I have nothing to hide, so it's fine to tell her."
Song Jiaxuan glanced at her younger sister, signaling her to shut up. Then she looked at Song Yunshen and asked with a hint of curiosity, "So who is this girl today?"
"What's the rush? We'll know when she gets back." Song Yunshen wasn't in a hurry at all. He just sat opposite the two of them, and even took out a new pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of roasted meat, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Meanwhile, Xia Jinshu had finished using the restroom and hurried back to the barbecue restaurant. Loading... Xia Jinshu just watched him silently, without saying a word, appearing remarkably calm.
But only those who know her well know that the more Xia Jinshu acts this way, the angrier she actually is inside.
If Xia Kening is most afraid of her second sister at home, then she is even more afraid of Xia Jinshu in this state.
However, Song Yunshen had never actually seen Xia Jinshu angry before, and was completely unaware of this.
On the contrary, Song Jiaxuan, who was also a girl, vaguely sensed something and suddenly found it interesting, so she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
"Come, come, have a seat too." Song Yunshen moved over to make room for Xia Jinshu, then introduced her, "These two are my cousins. I didn't expect to run into them. This is the current owner of the cat café I mentioned earlier."
Xia Jinshu was still a bit angry, and her whole aura was somewhat oppressive. But after sitting down and hearing Song Yunshen's introduction, her face immediately showed a look of astonishment. She had never expected it to be like this.
After the initial surprise came the awkwardness.
Upon realizing that the two girls in front of her were Song Yunshen's cousins, Xia Jinshu suddenly became flustered, her cheeks instantly flushing red. She lowered her head and whispered, "Good evening, sisters."
"Yes, hello to you too." Song Jiaxuan nodded gently, then smiled and asked, " Yunshen didn't tell us earlier that you are him..."
"Private tutor!" Xia Jinshu raised her head, her face tense, and replied in a serious tone.
"A private tutor?" This time, it was Song Jiaxuan and Song Jiayao's turn to be taken aback. They hadn't expected such an answer.
"Yes, yes, my tutor." Xia Jinshu nodded repeatedly, then added, "I've been tutoring him in English all summer. Today he invited me to the cat cafe, and then we came over for dinner."
"So that's how it is." Song Jiayao suddenly realized.
Song Jiaxuan narrowed her eyes slightly and couldn't help but chuckle, "Isn't the kitten cute?"
"Mmm-hmm." Xia Jinshu nodded quickly, "They're all very well-behaved."
"What about Blue Cat?" Song Jiaxuan tilted her head slightly. "Have you decided on a name yet?"
"Call it QQ Candy..." Xia Jinshu responded subconsciously, then suddenly realized something was wrong, "Huh? How did you know..."
"Of course I know." Song Jiaxuan glanced at Song Yunshen beside her, then said with a smile, "This guy specifically picked out two cats from the pet hospital, a tabby and a blue cat, and told me not to name them yet."
"That tabby cat was already taken by another girl."
"I brought you here today, so it must be to name Blue Cat, right?"
When Song Jiayao was standing next to her sister, heard her sister say such a thing, her eyes widened immediately, as if she had already foreseen a good show.
Song Jiaxuan had no choice. Even though Song Yunshen was her brother, she couldn't continue to protect him like this! Song Yunshen was very outstanding. Whether it was Xia Yunuo and Xia Kening before, or Xia Jinshu now, in Song Jiaxuan's eyes, her brother was absolutely worthy of them.
But this does not mean that Song Jiaxuan agrees with the idea of having three boyfriends at the same time.
Before Song Yunshen completely goes astray, as his older sister, she still needs to try to correct her younger brother's misconceptions.
To her surprise, after she said those words, Xia Jinshu showed no surprise at all; in fact, she even had an expression that said, "I knew it would happen this way."
So Xiao Nuo chose the tabby cat... Xia Jinshu thought to herself, having a preliminary answer.
However, since Xia Yunuo didn't want others to know she had a sister, Xia Jinshu didn't reveal the whole truth, only nodding slightly in response, "I know the other girl."
Upon hearing this, both Song Jiaxuan and Song Jiayao were instantly stunned.
know?
The girl in front of me actually knows Xia Kening?
Song Jiaxuan felt that her understanding of the world had been somewhat shaken.
Judging from Xia Jinshu's tone, it seemed that they were not only acquaintances, but she didn't even mind that Song Yunshen had also chosen a cat for her.
What's going on now?! "Alright, alright, we still have some barbecue left over." Song Yunshen waved his hand to prevent the two of them from continuing to compare accounts, lest the truth be exposed. "That blue cat is called QQ Candy, Sister Xuanxuan, remember to add the information."
"Hmm..." Song Jiaxuan was still a little dazed, and subconsciously responded.
Meanwhile, Song Yunshen had already gotten up and led Xia Jinshu back to their table to continue eating the barbecue.
"Sis..." Song Jiayao sensed something was wrong with her older sister's expression and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing..." Song Jiaxuan couldn't help but rub her forehead, feeling that the world was too crazy.
Could my younger brother be a succubus?
Why are all these girls so willing to revolve around him?
And this was done even though she knew he had relationships with other girls.
Song Jiaxuan feels that she can no longer understand the thinking of young people today.
She originally thought she was quite young, not even 30 yet, but her worldview has been shattered one after another by her younger brother lately.
At this point, she couldn't help but doubt herself: Was she really getting old?
They're starting to fall behind the times...
After finishing their all-you-can-eat barbecue, Song Yunshen and Xia Jinshu said goodbye to their two older sisters before leaving Wanda Plaza.
After escorting Xia Jinshu all the way to her apartment building, Song Yunshen watched her go upstairs and go home. Then he took out his phone and sent a message to Xia Kening.
A moment later, Xia Kening stepped out of the elevator and skipped over to the electric scooter. "Excuse me, excuse me, let me go first."
Song Yunshen got off the electric scooter, waited for the little girl to move to the back seat, and then got back on the scooter and drove her home.
"Why did you walk my sister downstairs? Did you come all this way to pick me up?" Xia Kening hugged him tightly and chuckled.
Song Yunshen narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying the touch on his back. "You're quite the dreamer. I took her to the cat cafe this afternoon, so I just dropped her off on the way back."
"A cat café?" Xia Kening was surprised at first, then suddenly remembered something, and immediately snorted and pinched Song Yunshen's waist, "I knew it! Wasn't that blue cat the one I chose for my older sister?"
"You're so smart, as a reward, you can come home with me and continue copying homework."
"You're so mean!" Xia Kening grumbled, feeling a little uncomfortable but unable to explain why. She could only give him another punch to brighten her mood slightly.
Xia Kening followed him upstairs, and after entering the study, she continued huffing and puffing as she helped him copy his homework.
Fortunately, unlike those who like to procrastinate, she had been frantically copying for Song Yunshen for the past week, and there wasn't much left. After working for about an hour, Xia Kening suddenly threw down her pen, jumped up from her chair, raised her hands, and shouted with joy, "Finally! Finished! It!"
"Oh? That's good, that's good." Song Yunshen took the notebooks, checked them, nodded in satisfaction, put them away, transferred 600 yuan to her, glanced at the time, and said, "Let's play until 9 o'clock today. Let's indulge ourselves a little on the last day before we have to go to school tomorrow."
"Whoosh!" Xia Kening happily accepted her wages, and upon hearing his words, she jumped up excitedly, "Brother, you're so kind!"
"You didn't say that a few days ago when you were copying homework." Song Yunshen rolled her eyes at her.
"Things change," Xia Kening chuckled, eagerly sitting back down, not wanting to waste a second, and quickly starting the game.
Song Yunshen Shen got up, picked up the homework he had packed, took it back to his bedroom, and stuffed it all into his schoolbag, planning to return it to Xia Yunuo when school started tomorrow.
At 9 p. m., Xia Kening reluctantly shut down her computer, leaned back in her chair, and sighed deeply.
Summer vacation... it's over just like that...
"Study hard, and don't forget our bet on the first day of school," Song Yunshen said with a chuckle. "If you don't get into the top 50 in the whole school, you'll have to call me 'Dad'."
Upon hearing this, Xia Kening immediately snorted, "You just wait, one of you will be calling me 'Mom' soon."
"Do you look any like your mother?" "It's like you're the one who looks just like your father."
"How is it not like that?" Song Yunshen counted on his fingers, "I let you play on the computer, took you to trendy toy stores and cat cafes, and even watched you do your homework until the end of summer vacation. Tell me, isn't it like that?" Xia Kening suddenly realized that there was some truth to what he said, and immediately became angry and embarrassed. She punched him with a red face. "You're just talking nonsense! I'm leaving!"
After seeing Xia Kening off and letting her into the elevator, Song Yunshen closed his door and then received another call from Xia Jinshu.
After completing half an hour of vocabulary memorization methodically, Song Yunshen hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Once back in my room, I couldn't wait to take out my Future Diary and read it.
There was another update, but the date was the first half of 2026, and it was about Xia Jinshu's college entrance exam preparation stage.
Finding nothing particularly exciting, Song Yunshen immediately felt bored. He tossed the Future Diary back into the drawer, took out his own diary, sat down at his desk, thought for a moment, and began to write.
[Saturday, August 30, 2025]
Having the hairless cat copy my homework was the best thing I did this summer; it was so awesome!
[It was definitely worth spending 600 yuan.]
At her desk in the bedroom, Xia Jinshu was flipping through Song Yunshen's diary entry from today. She couldn't help but frown after reading just the first two sentences.
This guy... he won't even do his summer homework by himself, he won't even copy it, he has to ask others to do it for him... Xia Jinshu sighed slightly, rubbed her forehead with a headache, and felt inexplicably distressed that her son was disobedient and she didn't know how to discipline him.
But who exactly is this hairless cat?
It must be that little brat who always appeared in my diary, right?
I don't know why, but I used to call the other person "little kid," but recently I suddenly changed my nickname to "hairy cat."
I have no idea what connection this form of address has with the other person.
Xia Jinshu was too naive at this time, and didn't think in that direction at all, and couldn't even imagine who the hairless cat was referring to.
So she continued reading.
[I asked Nuonuo at noon to see if she would be working part-time at the cat cafe that afternoon. She initially said she would, but coincidentally, after washing the dishes, she changed her mind and said she wouldn't be going. Her family called her home to help with the cleaning.]
[This saves me a lot of trouble; I don't have to worry about running into Mama Xia at the cat cafe anymore.]
[I just didn't expect that the luck I used up on this would come at a price on the other side.]
[While having a barbecue buffet with Mama Xia, Xuanxuan and Sister Yaoyao actually saw us.]
[But it's not a big deal. Sister Xuanxuan actually thought I was seeing three men at once, but I didn't do anything. Does that mean there can't be pure friendship between men and women?] [Sigh... Sister Xuanxuan is an adult who has entered society, and her thoughts have become corrupted, unlike me, who is upright and innocent.]
[My hairless cat finally finished copying my homework for me tonight. I feel so relieved now, and I can go to school happily tomorrow.]
Summer vacation went by so fast, it's gone in the blink of an eye!
[We still have to wait four or five months for winter break, it's really tough.]
After reading this diary entry, Xia Jinshu fell into deep thought.
He already knew about Xia Yunuo working at the cat cafe from her previous diary entries, so he wasn't surprised.
But the diary mentions having three relationships at the same time...
Although she felt that her relationship with Song Yunshen was quite innocent, even if she included herself and Xiao Nuo, there were only two people involved.
Who is the third person?
Could it be a hairless cat?
But isn't this little brat Song Yunshen's cousin?
Xia Jinshu narrowed her eyes slightly, suddenly realizing something was wrong. Not her cousin... not even related by blood... otherwise Song Yunshen's sister would never have suspected him of having affairs.
But who exactly is it?
Xia Jinshu lowered her head, rubbed her temples, closed the diary, and sighed softly.
Song Yunshen is really something, using so many code names in his diary. Couldn't he just write his real name clearly?
Xia Jinshu was unaware that Song Yunshen was thinking the same thing while reading her Future Diary.
After putting away her diary, Xia Jinshu stood up, stretched, and then left the bedroom to use the bathroom.
When she came out, she saw Yan Zhenxia still typing on the keyboard at the dining table. Suddenly remembering the diary she had just read, she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, did you clean the house this afternoon?"
"Huh? No." Yan Zhenxia turned to look at her in confusion. "Why are you asking this all of a sudden? I wasn't home all afternoon."
"Oh, it's nothing..." Xia Jinshu shook her head and returned to her bedroom in silence. She couldn't help but glance at her younger sister, who was already lying on the top bunk, her mind racing.
No one cleaned the house in the afternoon, so why did Xiao Nuo suddenly change her mind at noon and say she wouldn't be going to her part-time job at the cat cafe today?
How strange...
Did she guess that Song Yunshen would take other girls to the cat cafe? That shouldn't be the case.
According to the diary, Song Yunshen only tentatively asked Xiao Nuo if she would be working part-time at the cat cafe that afternoon.
Nothing else was said. If you could guess that, Xiao Nuo could be a private investigator.
Xia Jinshu felt something was amiss, and even harbored a vague unease, wondering if her younger sister already knew she was tutoring Song Yunshen.
But it still doesn't seem to make sense.
She racked her brains, but felt like she was missing some key information and couldn't figure it out no matter what she did.
Finally, having exhausted all other options, I secretly made a note of it in my phone's notes app.
Just then, Song Yunshen sent her a WeChat.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Senior, school starts tomorrow, want to go register together?
Upon first seeing those words, Xia Jinshu felt a strange stirring in her heart. But then her gaze fell upon the bed above her head, and she sighed softly.
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Are you alone?
[ Song Yunshen ]: There's another classmate. [ Xia Jinshu ]: Let's forget about that. I don't really want people at school to know I'm a tutor.
[ Song Yunshen ]: That's true, but if that's the case, then wouldn't I be unable to find you at school?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Just don't mention the tutoring thing, it's not like I asked you not to come see me.
[ Song Yunshen ]: What am I supposed to say if someone asks? After all, my senior is so popular at school, I can't exactly say I'm one of her suitors, can I?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: That's not impossible.
Looking at the chat history, Xia Jinshu blushed slightly, and her heart inexplicably raced.
[ Song Yunshen ]: And then I was cruelly rejected, and became a clingy clown?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Do you really want me to agree?
[ Song Yunshen ]: How about we choose another one?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Then you decide for yourself.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Alright, let me improvise.
After exchanging goodnights with three girls, Song Yunshen was busy until 11 p. m. He finally finished his work, breathed a sigh of relief, plugged his phone into the charger, and went straight to sleep.
the next day.
August 31st.
Ningjiang Middle School officially opened for the new semester.
