After Song Yunshen sat down, he thought for a while about when to go find Xia Jinshu. Then he turned around, opened his schoolbag, took out two copies of summer homework, and returned Xia Yunuo's copy to her.
"I am deeply grateful for your kindness and have no way to repay you but to serve you like a beast of burden!" Song Yunshen said solemnly, keeping a straight face.
Xia Yunuo was initially a little unhappy when she heard that he was going to see her older sister, but after his teasing, she couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not that serious, I just wanted to borrow your homework," Xia Yunuo said softly. "What more do you want from me?"
"Serving tea and water, massaging shoulders and backs—he's good at everything," Song Yunshen said, patting his chest.
"What shoulder massage and back rub?" Xu Zhuoyue had just arrived at the classroom from the bike shed and couldn't help but complain as he passed by, "You two really walk fast, you disappeared as soon as I parked my bike."
"Hey, Lao Xu's here?" Song Yunshen said with a smile. "Homework's being collected! Where's your summer homework? Hand it in right away."
"Bullshit." Xu Zhuoyue ignored him, quickly plopped down on the back of Song Yunshen's seat, took out his summer homework from his schoolbag, and immediately buried his head and started copying it down.
Song Yunshen turned around, curiously flipped through the papers, and then immediately laughed, "You've missed a bit, Lao Xu. How come you haven't written anything for physics, chemistry, or biology? Do you even have time?"
"Shut the hell up." Xu Zhuoyue waved his hand impatiently. "Can't you see I'm busy? Go chat with your Xia Yunuo."
"Dude, I'm just concerned about you," Song Yunshen laughed gleefully. "I was actually thinking of helping you copy it, but with your attitude, forget it." Xu Zhuoyue's eyes lit up at this, and he couldn't help but ask, "You really can help me copy it?"
"Cannot."
"You son of a bitch..."
Seeing his exasperated expression, Song Yunshen burst into laughter again, overjoyed.
Xia Yunuo watched him with amusement.
In the past, if she had seen boys teasing each other like this, she would have just thought it was a bit childish. But at this moment, she found it very amusing and couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
"You've finished all your homework?" Xu Zhuoyue couldn't help but ask. "You're busier than me every day, how could you have time to copy homework?"
"I'm not like you, who has no respect for summer homework whatsoever," Song Yunshen said seriously, arms crossed. "Anyway, I've already finished mine."
"You deserve to die..." Xu Zhuoyue gritted his teeth, not wanting to pay any more attention to him, and quickly buried his head to continue copying.
[Luckily, Xia Kening helped me copy it, otherwise I might not have finished copying it if I had dragged my feet.]
Song Yunshen thought to himself smugly.
Xia Yunuo, who had been secretly laughing, suddenly changed her expression, her mood instantly souring. What did this mean?
She painstakingly and diligently wrote her homework, only to find out that it wasn't Song Yunshen Song Yunshen copied it, but her younger sister?!
What's this?
If she had known that Song Yunshen didn't copy it himself, why would she have written it so carefully!
Thinking about this, Xia Yunuo couldn't help but feel a little angry. While Song Yunshen was still teasing Xu Zhuoyue, she secretly took one of his summer homework assignments, glanced at it, and immediately confirmed the truth.
It really is Ningning's handwriting...
hateful!
Song Yunshen is such a scoundrel!
I gave him all the summer homework, but he still refused to copy it himself!
Xia Yunuo grew angrier the more she thought about it, and became rather sullen.
Mingming was supposed to be Song Yunshen's deskmate starting today, but Song Yunshen was thinking about how to find his sister later. The summer homework that he copied was also copied by his sister.
What should have been a happy day inexplicably turned into an unhappy one. How did it turn out like this?
[Why did Ningning help him copy his homework? That brat! She didn't even tell me!]
Song Yunshen was still Xu Zhuoyue in the back seat when he suddenly heard this thought in his mind. He was startled and quickly turned around, wondering how he had inexplicably exposed himself.
Then he noticed that his summer homework seemed to have been touched. He couldn't help but steal a glance at Xia Yunuo, and seeing that her expression was off, he quickly asked tentatively, "You... you looked at my homework just now?"
Hearing his question, Xia Yunuo immediately felt a little guilty. "W-what's wrong?"
"Cough cough... It's nothing..." Song Yunshen didn't know what to say, after all, if he hadn't heard her thoughts, he wouldn't have realized that Xia Yunuo already knew about this.
But Xia Yunuo noticed that Song Yunshen seemed a little guilty, and her courage immediately grew. Thinking that she hadn't done anything wrong, yet Song Yunshen had betrayed her like this, she couldn't help but say, "You didn't copy the summer homework yourself, did you? The handwriting isn't yours."
"You found out..." Song Yunshen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her say it. He rolled his eyes and started racking his brains for a solution.
If Xia Yunuo keeps it to herself, it will be harder for him to handle.
It's better to lay everything out clearly like this.
Just as Song Yunshen pondering how to explain, Xu Zhuoyue in the back seat overheard their conversation and couldn't help but widen his eyes. "You little brat! You even need someone to copy your summer homework for you, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?"
"Anyway, I've finished writing it. If you're so capable, go find someone to copy it for you." Song Yunshen rolled his eyes at him. Taking advantage of Xu Zhuoyue Yue's interruption, he quickly found a way to explain. So he coughed, pulled Xia Yunuo around, and leaned closer to the table to avoid Xu Zhuoyue's interference, whispering to her, "Let me explain first."
"Go ahead and tell me." Xia Yunuo wanted to see how he would explain it, still holding a grudge, just waiting for Song Yunshen to coax her.
"Let me ask you a question first: Is copying summer homework a bad thing?" Song Yunshen didn't rush to explain directly, but instead patiently asked a question that seemed to be completely unrelated to the matter.
Xia Yunuo was silent for a moment, then nodded gently. "That's definitely not good."
"The purpose of the school assigning summer homework is to help us maintain our problem-solving skills, avoid becoming rusty in our knowledge, and ensure a smooth transition to the new semester," Song Yunshen said at length, before continuing, "But since I don't plan to do any of it, whether I copy it or not, it won't achieve the school's purpose for me, right?"
"Hmm..." Xia Yunuo felt something was off about what he said, but she couldn't quite refute it. "That makes sense, but..."
"I know, I know. After all, you did your summer homework so carefully and meticulously, you must have wanted to make it easier for me to copy it," Song Yunshen said sincerely. "But you also know that I don't have that much time during the summer vacation."
"I usually have to come to school for tutoring in the morning, then accompany you and Yingying to class in the afternoon, and have an English tutoring class in the evening. I also want to play games at night. After all, I can't spend the whole day studying, otherwise this summer vacation would be a waste!"
"So if I really want to copy homework, I'll only have time to do so when you and Yingying are in class."
"But compared to accompanying you two to class, copying homework is definitely not a higher priority, right?"
Hearing him say that, Xia Yunuo blushed slightly, thinking to herself, "Who asked you to come with me..."
But if Song Yunshen actually copied Yingying's homework while she was teaching her, she would definitely be a little unhappy. "But this is Ningning's handwriting, right? I can tell." Xia Yunuo had actually calmed down by now, but she still pouted slightly and questioned, "How could you let her copy your homework for you?"
"You don't understand, this is all thanks to my good intentions." Song Yunshen continued to explain in detail, "You know, she's been helping me grind games all summer, and after she's done, she plays some games."
"I'm worried she'll become addicted to games and keep thinking about them after school starts, so I'm trying to find something for her to do."
"It'll be a good opportunity for her to copy some homework, get her writing skills back on track, and also reduce her gaming time so she can gradually adjust to not playing games, preventing her from feeling overwhelmed when school starts."
"Look, this way, your sister can get ready for the start of school, and I can have more time to accompany you and Yingying to class. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
Upon hearing his words, Xia Yunuo immediately fell silent.
It seems... that makes sense?
But she still felt something was off, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Of course." Before Song Yunshen could finish speaking, after explaining clearly, he sincerely reached out and held her small hand, lowered his head and whispered, "I definitely still have to apologize to you for this. After all, I let your sister copy my homework for me without your permission. I'm sorry, Nuonuo, it was my fault."
Caught off guard by his series of moves, Xia Yunuo's face flushed red with embarrassment. She quickly pulled her hand back and stammered, "I'm not really blaming you... You don't need to apologize."
"Yes, yes," Song Yunshen said with a serious expression. "After all, it's all your kind intention, and what I did was a bit inappropriate."
"It's okay." Xia Yunuo gently shook her head, feeling the lingering warmth of Song Yunshen's touch on her hands. She couldn't help but purse her lips, trying to hide her feelings as she tried to smile. "Then I forgive you. Let's not talk about this anymore, okay?" "Okay, then you can't be angry anymore," Song Yunshen said.
"Yes, I'm not angry anymore."
Xu Zhuoyue, sitting in the back seat, was dumbfounded, wondering what that bastard Song Yunshen was doing.
How did they end up shaking hands while chatting?
Holy crap, this is a classroom!
Where's Lao Bao? Where's Lao Bao?!
Lao Bao, come quick!
This guy is absolutely lawless, I'm reporting him!
Xu Zhuoyue was so angry that he gritted his teeth. When he saw that it was already 8:30, he quickly buried himself in copying his homework again.
At this moment, after dealing with Xia Yunuo's matter, Song Yunshen turned around and said in a cheeky tone, " Lao Xu, stop writing. There's only half an hour left. You definitely won't finish copying it. Face reality."
"Get out!" Xu Zhuoyue cursed, wishing the guy would disappear immediately; he was furious.
Before long, the classroom gradually filled with students, chattering and making quite a commotion. After Zhong Long arrived at the classroom, he sat down next to Xu Zhuoyue and, seeing that he was still copying homework, couldn't help but ask, "Didn't Sister Ping give you a week to finish your summer homework? Why haven't you finished copying it yet?"
"Shut up," Xu Zhuoyue said irritably. "Either help me copy it, or leave me alone."
"Then I advise you to hurry," Zhong Long said. "You'll have to return it to Sister Ping when it's time."
"Don't you have a photocopy?" Xu Zhuoyue said in a low voice, "Lend it to me later."
"Ten yuan per subject, which subjects does Brother Xu need?" Zhong Long knew business was in the air when he heard this, and couldn't help but rub his hands together and ask with a sly smile.
"Didn't you say it was 5 yuan before?!" Xu Zhuoyue exclaimed in shock and anger.
"That was the price before summer vacation started," Zhong Long chuckled cheekily. "The price is definitely different now. Go ask around, it's basically the same price everywhere, and some people even pay more."
Song Yunshen in the front row was practically dying of laughter, slapping the table and laughing gleefully.
Xu Zhuoyue, seeing that it was already 9 o'clock, saw Zhang Zhidong appear at the classroom door and immediately sighed to the heavens, "Heaven is against me!"
"Just accept your fate," Song Yunshen chuckled. "Anyway, Lao Bao has a good temper; at most, he'll just have to stand in the office as punishment."
"Quiet." Zhang Zhidong walked into the classroom, went to the podium, and then tapped on the desk.
The classroom quickly quieted down. "Come in." Zhang Zhidong looked towards the corridor and waved to the figures outside. Then, three students walked in and stood in a line on the podium.
"These three students transferred from the humanities class," Zhang Zhidong said. "It just so happens that three students from our class also transferred to the humanities class this semester. You can sit in the seats they've vacated for now. Before you sit down, please introduce yourselves. Who wants to go first?"
As soon as the words were spoken, a rather refined-looking boy stepped forward and confidently looked at the students below the stage. "Hello everyone, I'm Cao Shuhan, a transfer student from Class 16. My hobby is playing basketball, and I hope some classmates who like playing basketball can take me along. I also enjoy..."
Song Yunshen, sitting in his seat, watched Cao Shu Han introduce himself on the podium. He didn't react much at first, but then he suddenly noticed that after Cao Shu Han glanced around, his gaze fell on Xia Yunuo and looked at her several times.
Song Yunshen frowned immediately, sensing that something was wrong.
"You two know each other?" "I was also in Class 16 before." Xia Yunuo's expression was strange as she explained in a low voice, "He seems to be the English class representative."
"Oh... he seems to be looking at you," Song Yunshen said again.
"Um..." Xia Yunuo was a little embarrassed, not knowing what to say.
[This guy gave me a love letter back in my first year of high school, it's so embarrassing, should I tell Song Yunshen?]
Song Yunshen raised an eyebrow, his eyes suddenly widening in realization.
No wonder...
But sending love letters aside, the outcome was also quite obvious. Could it be that he transferred to the science class specifically for Xia Yunuo?
Song Yunshen's expression was a bit strange. He thought it shouldn't be that bad. After all, there were a total of 8 science classes. Apart from the competition class in Class 1, who knew which of the other 7 classes he would transfer to?
Thinking this, Song Yunshen realized that Cao Shu Han was quite talkative. While giving his self-introduction, he went on and on, and every now and then he would steal glances at Xia Yunuo.
Seeing Song Yunshen immediately rolled his eyes and, taking advantage of Lao Bao's inattention on the podium, reached out and smoothed Xia Yunuo's hair.
Cao Shuhan, who was standing on the podium, was originally in good spirits, but when he suddenly saw Xia Yunuo's deskmate pull off such a move, his Dao heart instantly wavered, and he immediately froze.
"Um... um... anyway... please take good care of me in the new semester."
Cao Shuhan looked displeased. After speaking, he took a step back, his eyes fixed on Song Yunshen.
Song Yunshen didn't stand on ceremony with him, giving him a chuckle without holding back at all.
For a moment, Cao Shuhan was stunned by Song Yunshen face. He took a deep breath and finally calmed himself down, forcing himself to look away.
Then he looked at Xia Yunuo and saw that she didn't seem to care at all about her deskmate's behavior. His heart sank to the bottom, and he felt a chill.
"Hi everyone, I'm Wei Zhile, a transfer student from Class 15." The only girl among the three stepped forward, smiling and waving as she introduced herself. She glanced around before her gaze settled on Song Yunshen, pointing directly at him. " Song Yunshen is my cousin! My dad said that after I came to Class 5, my cousin will protect me, so you're all not allowed to bully me!"
Upon hearing this, all the students turned to look at Song Yunshen. Song Yunshen, speechless, glared at Wei Zhi Le and said irritably, "Then I'll have to go collect protection money from your dad."
"Hahaha~" Wei Zhile couldn't help but laugh, not at all shy. "Sure, sure, cousin, remember to share half with me."
Everyone burst into laughter, and a cheerful atmosphere filled the classroom.
Zhang Zhidong slightly surprised, clearly not knowing about the relationship between Wei Zhile and Song Yunshen beforehand.
Recalling the words the grade director had previously instructed her, she suddenly realized what was going on and glanced at Song Yu'an beside her.
After Wei Zhile finished introducing himself, the last person hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and saying in a low voice, "Hello everyone, my name is Song Yu'an. Please take care of me in the new semester."
After he finished speaking, he stepped back and returned to his original position.
Song Yunshen glanced at his cousin and, seeing that he hadn't caused any trouble like Wei Zhi Le, breathed a slight sigh of relief.
After the self-introductions, Zhang Zhidong returned to the podium, clapped his hands, and then arranged the seats for the three people.
Coincidentally, two of the three students who left Class 5 were Chen Yue and Deng Shitao's deskmates.
So Wei Zhile was seated next to Chen Yue, while Song Yu'an sat next to Deng Shitao.
Cao Shuhan was lucky; his seat was right behind Xu Zhuoyue's, giving him a clear view of Song Yunshen and Xia Yunuo's seats. "That Wei Zhile is actually your cousin?" Xia Yunuo couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yes, my dad just mentioned it to me this morning, and there's also that Song Yu'an, who's also my cousin," Song Yunshen said softly.
"Huh?" Xia Yunuo was a little surprised, not expecting that there was more than one relative.
"Song Yu'an is from my fourth grandfather's side. He's the one who arranged the hospital and doctor appointments for my dad. His dad works at the First People's Hospital," Song Yunshen Shenxia introduced her. "Wei Zhile is my great-aunt's granddaughter. Her family is in the clothing business."
Xia Yunuo listened attentively to his introduction, then nodded gently, her expression one of sudden realization.
Then I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Two of his relatives have suddenly appeared in the class, and he doesn't know how to get along with them...
Song Yunshen Xia Yunuo's thoughts, Song Yunshen turned and glanced at her, then chuckled, "You don't need to worry about Song Yu'an; he's just a quiet type. As for Lele, she's very easy to get along with. I promised Dad I'd look after them when school starts, so let's have lunch together today."
"Okay, sure." Xia Yunuo nodded obediently, already seriously considering what topics to discuss at the dinner table later.
