Face-Smashing Onslaught.

Chen Yuan was doing something quite abstract.

He was making the four sect leaders take photos of him, the Permanent Deputy Holy Son of Eleventh High, and the subjects of the photos were their own sect's female disciples.

Clearly, Heart Source is pure love... so why do I smell a faint hint of cuckoldry?

"Thank you, teacher." After the photos were taken, Chen Yuan stepped forward to take his phone from Zhang Jianjun.

Zhang Jianjun handed him the phone, nodding slightly.

"Thank you, teacher." Xia Xinyu also expressed her thanks with some embarrassment.

"Mm."

Then, Zhang Jianjun left, with his beautiful wife.

"This is that Chen Yuan, right?" his wife asked curiously.

"Yeah."

"That kid is quite interesting." His wife thought it was amusing, recalling the earlier photo-taking.

Of course, she was also happy.

Any woman would be pleased by a young boy's compliment about her appearance.

"How could he not be interesting?" Zhang Jianjun smiled, but his tone wasn't happy. Instead, it carried a hint of severity. "Someone who can be treasured by He Hongtao must have some cunning."

"Cunning? Isn't that a bit much?" his wife asked, puzzled.

"Isn't it?" Zhang Jianjun turned his head, glanced at the previous location, and then said, "He's taken advantage of me on purpose because he's got a hold on me."

"Didn't you offer to take the photos for him?"

"If I didn't, what if he spread that matter everywhere?"

"Ah, he even thought of that… But what's he trying to achieve?" his wife still didn't understand.

"He's showing off in front of me."

Thinking of this, Zhang Jianjun clenched his fist, quite concerned, and said, "Fourth High strictly prohibits early romance. He even dragged students from our school to take photos with him. Isn't that the same as saying, 'I'm dating, what can you do about it?'"

His wife felt that Zhang Jianjun was overthinking it…

That kid looked very kind and innocent. How could he be like that?

But she still echoed his thoughts, saying, "Thinking that way, it's indeed a bit arrogant."

"A bit arrogant?"

Zhang Jianjun laughed, and thinking of that scene, he said with a sense of impending doom, "If this kid really becomes the top scorer, it'll be the end of the world."

It was hard to imagine what would happen in the entire Xia Hai if he gained so much limelight.

He'd be strutting around showing off to everyone.

"It's okay, Eleventh High only has him. We, Fourth High, have so many outstanding kids. We can win with quantity," his wife comforted.

"Besides relying on quantity to win…"

Thinking of this, Zhang Jianjun's expression gradually became serious, and he said with great certainty, "Whether it's in Xia Hai, or Hai Dong, or even breaking the records of these past few years, I have people I can trust."

………

"Jianjun-jiang's photography skills are quite something."

Looking at the photo where the dolphin was in the frame while they were making a heart shape, Chen Yuan said approvingly.

"You were definitely deliberately provoking Zhang Jianjun just now, right?" Xia Xinyu asked nervously and seriously.

To this, Chen Yuan said with a smile, "He's always been oppressing students. What's wrong with letting a student ride on him once?"

"Good for you, only caring about showing off yourself!" After getting a definite answer, Xia Xinyu immediately puffed up her cheeks in anger. "Have you forgotten that your girlfriend is still in his hands?"

"It's okay, you have a strong enough family on your side."

Chen Yuan comforted.

"Heh… Boys, really, they're always young at heart."

What Xia Xinyu actually wanted to say was childish, but she changed it to a nicer way of saying it.

"Let's go, let's stroll around further ahead." Chen Yuan extended his hand.

"You don't want to run into Zhang Jianjun again, do you…" Xia Xinyu pointed at him like a husky, very vigilantly.

Chen Yuan had a very un-noble personality, and it was hard to say what narrow-minded things he might do that would be detrimental to unity and stability.

"Forget about Jianjun, let's enjoy our time alone."

Chen Yuan directly grabbed Xia Xinyu's hand, leading her through the beautiful and dreamy aquarium, and then trying his best to take more and more beautiful photos of her…

………

Chen Yuan sent a photo of him and Xia Xinyu.

Shen Yating: Why are you still showing off your love in the group? Do you dare post it on your Moments?

Chen Yuan: I indeed don't have the courage to post it on Moments, but guess who took this photo?

Shen Yating: Who took it? A passerby.

Chen Yuan: A passerby at the level of a division chief.

"?" Liu Chengxi, sitting on the sofa looking at his phone, was puzzled. How did Chen Yuan get mixed up with officials?

Then, he started his explosive speech.

Chen Yuan @ Shi Yi: Your school principal.

"Ah?" Liu Chengxi directly made a sound of wisdom, attracting the attention of the relatives in the living room.

But he was still looking at his phone.

[Shen Yating sent a "dog tilting its head" emoticon]

Shen Yating directly did Shi Yi's thing.

Shi Yi: Are you that bold?

Chen Yuan: Am I awesome or what?

Shen Yating: Amazing, amazing, I admire you.

Chen Yuan: So, what are you guys doing?

Then, Shi Yi sent a photo of a fast food restaurant table, with a pair of fair hands holding a burger opposite him.

Shi Yi: Eating Hua【beep】shi with Wen Xin in town.

Chen Yuan: Oh right, you two are neighbors from the same hometown.

Shen Yating: So nice, sweet, sweet, sweet.

Chen Yuan @ Liu Chengxi: What about you, Chengxi-ge?

"…" Liu Chengxi, who was tagged, slowly raised his head and saw his seven aunts and eight great-aunts, along with his mother, chatting and eating melon seeds in the living room.

Then, he sighed in his heart.

He missed these friends a little.

More importantly, he missed her very much.

"Chengxi, take Qianqian-meimei to watch a movie, it's just in the shopping mall next door." At this moment, a distant aunt suddenly said with a smile.

And after speaking, the aunt's daughter, sitting on the other side of the sofa, slowly raised her head, glanced at Liu Chengxi, then turned her face back and lowered her head again.

Liu Chengxi directly looked at his mother, pleading with his eyes: You know I have a girlfriend!

"…" His mother was a little embarrassed, looked at her cousin, then looked at Liu Chengxi, and squeezed out a smile, saying, "Take Qianqian, then."

Ah, what are you doing?

Liu Chengxi was speechless at his mother's attempt to smooth things over.

But there was no way, he shouldn't spoil the fun. So he could only accept it, standing up.

Thus, Qianqian-meimei also stood up.

The two of them walked to the shoe cabinet, changed their shoes, and left together.

"Qianqian, what movie do you want to watch?" Liu Chengxi asked.

"I'm okay with anything, I'm not picky."

"Then let's pick one that's starting soon, I'll buy the tickets."

"Okay."

Qianqian followed beside Liu Chengxi like this, heading to the shopping mall next door. She wanted to say something along the way, but the other person didn't open his mouth, but rather had that plain expression, so it was hard for her to find a topic.

"There are still ten minutes before the movie starts, want to drink milk tea?" When they walked to the milk tea shop, Liu Chengxi asked casually.

"Then I'll have a Mango Pomelo Sago," Qianqian said.

"Okay, I'll have one of those too."

After Liu Chengxi finished speaking, the milk tea shop clerk introduced, "We have an activity today, buy one get one free for couples."

"I'll pay for two cups," Liu Chengxi said.

Qianqian: "…"

"That's four cups?" the clerk asked back with a smile.

Qianqian: "…"

She really didn't expect that ordering a milk tea could make her speechless twice in a short period of time.

"How is it four cups? I mean, I'll pay for two cups, and you just give me two cups…"

"But today it's buy one get one free for couples."

"We're not a couple," Liu Chengxi corrected, "My younger cousin."

"…Well, it's not just couples, but boys and girls of similar ages can also enjoy buy one get one free," the clerk said.

"Based on what?"

"Buy one get one free for couples…"

"We're not a couple."

"Gege." Suddenly, a particularly gentle voice, as if unique to Fucheng girls, appeared.

Liu Chengxi looked over and met Qianqian's eyes. Then, this girl hurriedly explained嬌嬌, "There's really this buy one get one free activity today, it can save money."

"Okay, then." Since Qianqian said so, Liu Chengxi had no choice but to accept it.

In this way, the two ordered two cups of Mango Pomelo Sago and sat in the milk tea shop to wait.

After waiting for a while, Liu Chengxi stood up and handed his phone to Qianqian, "I'm going to the restroom, you can use my phone to get the ticket later."

"Okay, gege~"

"…" Liu Chengxi felt a burst of numbness, as if he had been electrocuted.

But if it was from Qianqian, he wouldn't find it strange.

Fucheng girls speak in this tone.

Just like that, Liu Chengxi left.

And Qianqian, just like that, waited for the milk tea while chatting with her best friend on the phone.

"I went to see a movie with gege today, if it's good, you can go see it too."

"What gege? Aren't you an only child?"

"It's that Chengxi-ge you saw in the photos before."

"Ah? That gege! The two of you went to see a movie together?"

"Yeah."

"Who suggested it? You or him?"

"It was my mom…"

"I went, your mom definitely meant that! Your Chengxi-ge has good grades, is handsome, and is eligible to marry, she definitely thinks that good water shouldn't flow to outsiders..."

"What do you mean by eligible to marry?"

"It means you can get married."

"…" Qianqian was stunned by what she said, then smiled softly. Just as she was about to continue chatting, Liu Chengxi's phone suddenly received a call.

It was a WeChat call, and the contact displayed was 'Yating'.

Ya shouldn't be a surname.

So it's a nickname.

Could it be his girlfriend?

Isn't this gege focused on studying and not interested in girls at all…

The phone was still ringing.

So, she gently clicked to answer…

………

Lying on the bed, legs raised, Shen Yating always adopted this posture whenever she called Liu Chengxi. She didn't know why.

Today was the third day of the Lunar New Year. She didn't know what he was doing over there, but as long as she could call, it could alleviate the pain of missing him.

Before the phone connected, Shen Yating said with a smile, "What are you doing?"

"Hello there."

Then, a voice so cloying that even a '夾子 (jiā zi, a girl who uses a deliberately sweet and innocent voice)' like Shen Yating felt it was excessive, made her expression instantly freeze, and her raised feet also stopped in mid-air.

"Who are you?"

Shen Yating asked coldly.

Who knows who your Qianqian is!

"Why are you using his phone?"

"You mean Chengxi-ge?" After being asked, the girl still answered in that tone that would numb people to death, "He went to the restroom, and I'm waiting for the milk tea."

Going to the restroom and waiting for milk tea?

The hand holding the phone tightened even more.

Liu Chengxi was an only child and had no younger sister.

And she called him gege?

"Are you his younger cousin?" Shen Yating asked.

Then, the voice of a '笨蛋美人 (bèndàn měirén, a beautiful idiot)' came: "I don't know, I've always called him gege, I'm not very clear about family relationships."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Watching a movie."

"Oh, is everyone watching a movie together…"

"It's just Chengxi-ge and me."

Going out to watch a movie alone with a younger cousin…

Biting her lip, Shen Yating was already getting a little heated.

However, she felt that it might not be entirely Liu Chengxi's fault.

This '妹妹 (mèimei, younger sister/cousin)' might be a Fuzhou specialty – Anxi Tieguanyin tea (a metaphor for a cunning and scheming woman).

"Oh, meimei, who suggested watching the movie?" Shen Yating asked with a trembling voice but a forced smile.

"Both parents agreed."

Ahhhh!!!

Shen Yating wanted to kill someone.

Why weren't you braised in a clay pot by Cantonese people!

So angry, so angry.

"Okay, I won't talk anymore, I'm going to get the milk tea," the voice suddenly said.

Then, there was a 嬌嬌 voice: "Oh, it's my Mango Pomelo Sago with the buy one get one free for couples."

Beep——

The phone hung up like that.

And Shen Yating, lying on the bed, also gnashed her teeth and was utterly defeated (orz)…

……

"Gege, you're back?"

Qianqian handed the milk tea to Liu Chengxi and also gave him the phone.

"Thank you."

Liu Chengxi took it and opened his phone, then was shocked to find that he had a voice call with Shen Yating!

"Gege, just now a older jie-jie called, because it kept ringing, I answered it," Qianqian said.

"Ah?" Liu Chengxi was stunned and asked nervously, "What did you say?"

Qianqian thought for a moment and replied, "I said I was Liu Chengxi's younger cousin, because the elders were all chatting, my mom asked you to take me to the shopping mall next door to watch a movie. Because you happened to go to the restroom, and I needed to use the phone to get the ticket, so I answered the phone for you."

If that's what she said…

It should be fine.

After all, it was all the truth.

But after all, he went out to watch a movie with a girl, so he had to explain it to Shen Yating.

"Gege, the movie is about to start, let's go," Qianqian quickened her pace, then hugged Liu Chengxi's arm and walked towards the elevator.

Liu Chengxi was stunned, then gently pressed her arm down, "Qianqian, you're a big girl now, you can't walk like this holding onto me."

"Oh… is that so."

Qianqian let go of his hand, saying very sincerely, "Sorry, Qianqian doesn't understand anything."

………

At the same time, in a certain girl's bedroom in Xia Hai.

On a vertical punching bag, a piece of paper was pasted, and on the paper were written the two Chinese characters '茜茜 (Qianqian)'.

Shen Yating, wearing pink boxing gloves, took a buffer and then smashed the paper on the punching bag with a heavy punch, and let out a full-bodied "Ha!"
