[ Song Yunshen ]: Who insulted you? Forget about it.
[ Xia Kening ]: Is it really 250?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Why would I lie to you?
[ Xia Kening ]: I always feel like you're playing me.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Let's discuss this in detail tomorrow.
[ Xia Kening ]: Stop keeping me in suspense!
[ Song Yunshen ]: It's hard to explain over the phone. You'll have to come out with me tomorrow morning.
[ Xia Kening ]: What are you going to do?
[ Song Yunshen ]: You'll see when you get there. I'll take you out for a big meal at noon.
[ Xia Kening ]: Okay, what time tomorrow morning?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Ten o'clock? Let me sleep in.
[ Xia Kening ]: Isn't it too late?! Are you an idiot?
[ Song Yunshen ]: We're on holiday, can't we even sleep a little longer?
[ Xia Kening ]: Seven o'clock! I can't be any later! I told my family I was going to the library.
[ Song Yunshen ]: No, I want to take you to Wanda Plaza. It doesn't open until 10 a. m.
[ Xia Kening ]: Ah? Okay then----
[ Song Yunshen ]: Is someone really that eager to see me?
[ Xia Kening ]: Pshaw! I just want to go out and play as soon as possible!
[ Song Yunshen ]: What kind of entertainment did you do during your summer vacations before?
[ Xia Kening ]: Go to the library.
[ Song Yunshen ]: I didn't realize you were so studious.
[ Xia Kening ]: It's not that I love it, it's that my family insists I go, I can't refuse.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Aren't you sure it'll be alright if you sneak out like this tomorrow?
[ Xia Kening ]: It seems like everyone in my family is busy tomorrow, so they can't take care of me~
[ Song Yunshen ]: Besides going to the library, what about some proper entertainment?
[ Xia Kening ]: I occasionally go downstairs to play badminton.
[ Song Yunshen ]: That's alright. How about we play some badminton tomorrow morning?
[ Xia Kening ]: Sure, how about seven o'clock?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Can't we do it later? This is way too early.
[ Xia Kening ]: Then it'll be eight o'clock, no later than that!
[ Song Yunshen ]: Okay, okay, let's play until 9:30, then we can pack up and go to Wanda.
[ Xia Kening ]: Okay!
While chatting with Xia Kening, Song Yunshen continued playing the game, replying intermittently.
Xia Kening clearly noticed this and soon asked.
[ Xia Kening ]: What are you doing? Are you still chatting with other people?
Upon hearing her words, Song Yunshen realized that he hadn't sent Xia Yunuo a message yet.
So he sent his phone number to Xia Yunuo's QQ while replying to Xia Kening.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Playing video games.
[ Xia Kening ]: What game is it?
[ Song Yunshen ]: The character I sent you a picture of before is from this game.
After saying that, Song Yunshen took a picture of the game logo and sent it to her.
[ Xia Kening ]: Hmm? This looks familiar, I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.
[ Song Yunshen ]: I guess your classmate played it before.
[ Xia Kening ]: It seems so! Xiao Mengdie played this in the dorm before!
While chatting with Xia Kening about games, Xia Yunuo's WeChat friend request popped up.
Song Yunshen glanced at the nickname " A Promise Worth a Thousand Pieces of Gold," immediately clicked to accept, and added Xia Yunuo on WeChat.
Because I've been chatting with three girls a lot lately, their profile pictures just happen to be lined up in the chat list right now.
Looking down from top to bottom, Song Yunshen saw Xia Yunuo, whom he had just added as a friend, at the very top.
Her profile picture has a cool and aloof feel, featuring a black and white silhouette of distant mountains and a lonely-looking figure with long hair in the lower left corner. The overall image is detached and distant, creating a sense of aloofness.
The profile picture gave off an aloof and unapproachable vibe, a stark contrast to the inner thoughts Song Yunshen usually heard.
In contrast, Xia Kening's profile picture is much more playful; it's a funny emoji that, upon closer inspection, looks like a cartoon puppy.
She's a perfect match for the silly Xia Kening.
Below that, Xia Jinshu's profile picture doesn't show any youthful style at all. It shows a tea set on a coffee table with a half-open book next to it, and a light-colored flower arrangement and screen in the background.
Overall, she gives off an elegant and refined feeling, which suits Xia Jinshu's temperament quite well.
If only Xia Jinshu could wear a cheongsam, tie her long hair into a bun and insert a hairpin, and sit by the coffee table to make tea for him someday.
Just thinking about it is wonderful.
But he's only thinking about it now; you can't really mandate that tutors have to wear cheongsams to class, can you?

Just as Song Yunshen was lost in his fantasies, Xia Yunuo sent him a message.
Song Yunshen clicked on it and took a look, only to find that it was English summer homework.
[ Song Yunshen ]: So diligent?
[ Xia Yunuo ]: I'm almost finished with the English one. I'll give it to you when I'm done this weekend.
[ Song Yunshen ]: So you still remember.
Xia Yunuo had previously said that he could copy her summer homework, but she never expected that Xia Yuno would keep it in mind.
I notified him in advance before I even finished writing it.
[ Xia Yunuo ]: I promised you, but I'll write the humanities questions first. It'll be slower to write the science questions, and I'm afraid I won't be able to answer some of them correctly.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Why bother with whether summer homework is right or wrong? Just finish it. Do you think Lao Bao and the others would actually grade it?
[ Xia Yunuo ]: Then I'll give you one after I finish writing one.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Take your time, no rush.
Even if he gets it, he'll only start copying it in the last few days anyway.
Do your summer homework early?
It doesn't exist, okay?
[ Xia Kening ]: Ignoring me again! Is the game really that fun?
Song Yunshen glanced at Xia Kening's chat page, feeling slightly guilty.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Not disturbing others while they are playing games is also a virtue.
[ Xia Kening ]: Then I don't have that virtue.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Don't you have anything better to do?
[ Xia Kening ]: Besides scrolling through Douyin, I don't know what else to do.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Let's do our summer homework.
[ Xia Kening ]: I'm all alone at home now, what homework am I supposed to do!
"Good, good, good, finally I have a kindred spirit," Song Yunshen with great satisfaction.
Xia Yunuo and Xia Jinshu are not human; how could they possibly finish their homework so early during summer vacation?
It goes against the very foundation of human nature.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Let's just use voice messages then, otherwise it's too troublesome to keep looking at the phone and typing.
[ Xia Kening ]: Okay, okay.
Song Yunshen logged into WeChat on his computer, and after connecting the voice call, he could hear Xia Kening's voice directly through his computer headphones.
Listening to Paimon's chattering in the game and Xia Kening's chattering on the other end of the voice chat, an afternoon quickly passed.
Around 5 p. m., Xia Kening heard the sound of the front door being opened.
Xia Kening immediately lowered her voice and whispered to Song Yunshen, "My mom's back, I'll hang up now."
Okay, bye-bye.
Bye-bye~
Xia Kening, with her little bottom sticking up on the bed, reluctantly hung up the call, then climbed off the bed and jogged over to Yan Zhenxia's side.
"Mom, why are you home so early today?"
