For the students, the biggest benefit of the hot summer was the two-month-long summer vacation.
"What? What did you say?" In his own room, Feng Xizhan stared uncertainly at the little demon who had always tried her best to bully him since he was young. He had an incredulous expression on his face.
"What? I just wanted to thank you for being my tutor and helping me a lot.”Yu Jinting responded to his suspicious gaze with a cute pout.
"Are you serious?"
"Why are you so suspicious? I only said that I wanted to treat you to a meal. What's with your shocked expression?”
" Uh…" Because he was really shocked!
Jin Ting, who had always only known how to make the best use of him, had taken the wrong medicine today? She actually prepared to treat him to a meal just to thank him?
This was just like how ordinary people would feel when they heard about the resurrection of dinosaurs. Their thoughts were simple, but they found it unbelievable.
After all, to believe that a person who had always exploited him would want to repay him was an impossible lie.
"Xizhan, you really know how to trample on other people's good intentions.”Meng complained to him, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.
This was what a thief should do! He wondered who had been trampling on him all this time! Feng Xizhan stuck out his tongue in his heart. He didn't intend to waste his energy arguing with him.
"Alright, thank you in advance.”He tried to hide his unwillingness and make himself look very happy.
"How insincere."
"How could that be? This was a rare surprise!”
"You're putting on a fake smile."
In the face of his nephew's testimony, Feng Xizhan forced himself to smile, but he didn't know that the smile he thought was happy was a bitter smile in the eyes of others.
"Haha, you're thinking too much." Feng Xizhan scratched his head, trying to hide his true feelings.
Hmph, she obviously didn't want to be with him, right?
Although he was slightly angry in his heart, Yu Jinting was good at using his charming smile that could deceive the world. Therefore, Feng Xizhan, who was busy hiding his true thoughts, did not have the spare energy to smell the gunpowder in the air.
"Since you're free tonight, let's find a restaurant later. It depends on what you want to eat, as long as I can afford it.”He perfectly fooled his uncle with his fake cute expression.
"What about sister and brother-in-law?"
"Today is Mom and Dad's wedding anniversary, so the two of them went out to celebrate.”
"Eh? Why didn't I bring you?"
"How can there be a light bulb in such a day?”
His explanation was reasonable, so Feng Xizhan didn't feel the strangeness in his eyes at all. Under his urging, the two of them walked down the second floor of the Feng family's house noisily. While Feng Xizhan was busy tying his shoelaces at the entrance, he went to the kitchen to tell his grandmother the news.
Feng Xizhan had only planned to see Yu Jinting walk into the house safely, then turn around and go back to his sweet little room to catch up on sleep. However, Yu Jinting, who should have stepped into the door, did not move at all. Instead, he stared at him with a lovable gaze that would definitely be taken away by him.
"Come in and accompany me, Xizhan."
"Why should I accompany you?" Feng Xizhan looked back at him, puzzled." Sister and brother-in-law are almost back. Wouldn't it be better to have them accompany you?”
"Dad and Mom will be back very late. I'm so lonely at home alone.”
"That's your family's business. It has nothing to do with me.”
Lonely? In that case, he asked me to accompany him because he wanted to bully me to relieve his boredom? He wasn't stupid enough to walk right into a trap.
"Then I'll go to Grandma's house with you.”
"What?"
"Because you refused to come in and accompany me, I had no choice but to go and find Grandpa and Grandma to accompany me.”
"Wait, wait a moment!"
Wasn't that little devilish smile clearly indicating that he was going to report him? Even if he had to report to the army in two days, he did not want to cause trouble.
" I..." Feng Xizhan looked at him helplessly and bowed his head." I'll accompany my sister and the others until they come back."”
"I knew you loved me the most, Xizhan.”
Yu Jinting immediately rewarded him with a sweet smile that was so cute that he couldn't say anything about it. It was a smile that could always successfully deceive everyone…Of course, the only person who wasn't included in this " everyone " was Feng Xizhan.
"If you really want to thank me, just call me uncle.”Although it was a topic that had nothing to do with him, Feng Xizhan couldn't help but care about his rude address, especially when he couldn't understand why he was always targeting him.
"No way! Xi Zhan is Xi Zhan."
"Why are you only so disrespectful in front of me?”Sighing heavily, Feng Xizhan felt that the reason was most likely because Jin Ting had been used to seeing how the Feng family oppressed him since he was young, so he felt that there was no need to treat him with respect for his elders!
"I'm not being rude. You're too slow.”
"What is it?"
"I don't care. Since you've already promised to accompany me, come in quickly.”After saying that, Yu Jinting pulled him into the door without giving him any chance to resist.
He couldn't help but sigh again. Feng Xizhan really didn't know when he would be able to obtain true freedom.
He thought Jin Ting was going back to his room, so he followed behind him wordlessly, but then he realized that he was actually walking in the opposite direction.
"Aren't you going back to your room?" This was at best a reflex question.
"You go in first. I'll go to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee.”
"Ah?" What was going on? This had always been his job. The little demon had never personally made a move. Usually, he would only give orders as a matter of course.
"Also, Dad made a new kind of fruit biscuit yesterday.”Ignoring his confusion and suspicion, Yu Jinting continued," I'll bring it to the room for you to taste later."”
After pausing for a few seconds, he glanced at him suspiciously. Feng Xizhan was skeptical of his sudden kindness." Are you plotting something?"”
"You're too much! Xizhan, why did you say that?”
"Because you've never been so nice to me.”
He felt that his answer should have been clear enough, but the imp put on a resentful look as if he was repaying kindness with ingratitude.
"What? I just wanted to thank you for your hard work in the past few days, so I invited you to dinner and entertained you. It's fine if you're not grateful, but you're still suspicious of other people's good intentions?”
Because you never had good intentions when you did these things!
Feng Xizhan replied without hesitation in his heart. He remembered that a long, long time ago, he had indeed had a nightmare because of Yu Jinting's scheme.
However, it seemed like it wasn't a good time to repeat the same old tune. That pitiful expression was no different from that of a beautiful girl, and Feng Xizhan was afraid that he would cry if he spoke a little louder. Although he knew better than anyone else about this little devil's perseverance and persistence.
"Alright, it's my fault today. I shouldn't have doubted your kindness, so don't be angry, okay?”Scratching his messy black hair, he apologized with a smile.
No one knew what he was thinking. Yu Jinting, who would usually seize this opportunity to make a fuss, actually put away his tearful expression and pressed down his eyes with his creamy fingers. When he turned around, although the corners of his eyes were still red, he didn't say anything more and pushed Feng Xizhan back to his room.
After a while, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly turned around and said,
"Wait a moment, the desserts will be ready soon.”
"Got it." Nodding obediently, Feng Xizhan pulled out the straight-back rattan chair that he usually sat on when tutoring and sat down.
The cold air controlled by the micro-computer sent out a cool breeze, quickly sweeping away the original stifling heat in the room.
What request do you have now?
Unable to believe that Yu Jinting's attentiveness was without purpose, Feng Xizhan began to speculate about the reason for Yu Jinting's unreasonable behavior.
No matter what, he had to do everything he could to get away.
He felt that he could foresee his fate in the near future. He sighed deeply, knowing that no matter how he struggled, he would never have a chance to escape.
Sigh, forget it.
Anyway, he had been doing it for more than ten years, so it was not a big deal!
Sighing and in a daze, he was so busy immersing himself in his thoughts that he didn't notice that Yu Jinting had already walked to his side with a heavy tray.
"Xi Zhan?"
"Uh, are you done?" Feng Xizhan turned his head abruptly, his surprise undisguised on his face.
"What are you thinking about so absent-mindedly?”
After thinking about Yu Jinting's question, he felt that it was better not to tell him the truth, so he just smiled foolishly and tried to change the topic.
"It's nothing." She laughed and shifted her gaze to the tray in his hand." Mmm, it smells so good. You're quite good at making coffee!"”
"Of course." Being praised seemed to make Yu Jinting quite happy. He snorted proudly with his nose and then laughed. At this moment, he indeed looked full of the childishness of a junior high school student.
If only she could be so cute and considerate when she was in court.
But Feng Xizhan wasn't so slow to think that his good intentions had no other purpose.
While he was still in a daze, Yu Jinting had already brought a gold-rimmed porcelain cup filled with the smell of coffee to his eyes. His naturally elegant and noble movements made him feel like he was in a high-end French restaurant, and he could still admire the Paris Tower from the window.
"Here, I'll pour it for you. As for the amount of sugar and creamer, it's up to you.”She poured a cup of coffee and pushed it in front of him. He gave him an innocent and bright smile.
"Oh, thank you. Why are you smiling so happily?"
He always felt that something was wrong, but everything around him seemed so ordinary that Feng Xizhan couldn't help but wonder why he was so suspicious today.
No, or rather, he found it hard to believe that Yu Jinting would do these things for him without asking for anything.
In fact, he couldn't be blamed for thinking too much, because ever since this little demon was born, he, who had always been at a disadvantage, had never received such " courtesy ". In addition, he had been smiling innocently at him since just now, which made him feel that something was wrong even if he didn't want to suspect it.
As he sipped his strong Mandanning coffee, he glanced sideways at his demon nephew, who was sitting opposite him, resting his chin on his hands and leaning against the desk.
"Is it good?" Yu Jinting asked with a smile.
"Yes." Feng Xizhan nodded reluctantly. He was surprised to find that his coffee brewing skills were not inferior to the coffee shops of today.
"That's great." He was still smiling happily.
Why was he smiling so happily?
As he thought about it, he unconsciously frowned. After drinking a whole cup of fragrant and strong slightly bitter coffee, Feng Xizhan suddenly realized that Yu Jinting had been smiling at him.
"Aren't you going to drink?"
"I'll drink it later."
"I see." Feng Xizhan nodded in confusion. His mind was filled with chaotic thoughts, and he drank another cup of coffee without thinking.
The taste was indeed very good. It was not inferior to the ones sold outside, and it even gave off the feeling of an expert. It seemed that Jin Ting had probably inherited his brother-in-law's talent in cooking, because his elder sister, who knew nothing about cooking and other household chores, could not have such excellent factors.
Caught off guard, just as he was still immersed in his thoughts, his body suddenly lost strength and the coffee cup in his hand fell to the ground.
"Eh?"
Before he could figure out what was going on, he found himself falling backward, as if he was paralyzed.
"Are you alright?" Before he fell to the floor, Yu Jinting came forward in time to stabilize his body and dragged him to the bed.
"What, what happened to me?" Feng Xizhan asked in confusion and panic.
Other than the fact that he seemed to have lost control of his muscles due to excessive exercise, his mind was still very clear, which meant that this strange phenomenon was not due to a sudden illness.
"Can you move your hands?"
"Ah?"
"Try moving your hands and feet.”
For a moment, he couldn't figure out why Yu Jinting made such a request. Although he was full of questions, he still moved his body obediently. Then, he quickly realized that something was wrong.
"Why…can't I move?" He shouted in fear, realizing that he had to exert a lot of effort to say this!
" I see..." He nodded as if he understood. Yu Jinting's mumbling didn't seem like he was trying to calm his uneasiness at all.
That thoughtful expression deepened Feng Xizhan's panic. He simply shouted at the top of his lungs,"
"What is going on?"
"Nothing much. I just didn't expect it to be so effective!”
"What?"
With a calm and composed expression that Feng Xizhan hated, Yu Jinting sat down beside him and smiled so beautifully that it made one's hair stand on end.
"Well, if you have the same idea, I'm willing to wait for one year and nine months.”Without warning, these words escaped from his beautiful lips.
" That, that's…" Feng Xizhan's eyes instantly widened.
"Yes, you must remember it clearly.”He smiled faintly.
"How did you know?" His entire body was limp on the bed. It was difficult for him to move a finger. It seemed that the only thing that could move as he wished was his mouth.
It was the afternoon of the day before yesterday. He and his female friend, who got along very well, went to watch a movie alone and then went to a fast food restaurant for dinner. It was in that lack of romantic atmosphere that he talked about the military service in a few days, and then the topic unknowingly changed to this.
Could it be that…that scene happened to be witnessed by someone in the court? But even so, so what?#
