My stepfather wasn’t really forcing me and my mother, he was even considerate. He gave us some money and then left with NanNan.
The young man just stared at me, his gaze dropping slightly before he turned his face away, his ears flushing a faint pink.
The young boy just looked at me, drooping his eyes slightly, then turned his face away, his ears turning a faint red.
Shiran: “The teacher’s house is too convenient, it shouldn’t be a hotel.”
I was stunned, Shi Ran…came to my hometown?
It suddenly dawned on me that it was already time for winter break.
When Ning Shu went to pick up Shi Ran, it was almost evening. I thought it was too early to go back at this time, and my stepfather wanted relatives to have dinner there.
“We only stayed for two days and then left.”
That tone had no hesitation or doubt, even with a hint of coldness and disdain.
Why didn’t Shiran visit Teacher before this time?
It’s not like eating at home, but rather like serving food to guests outside.
Ning Shu realized that the picture looked familiar, it wasn’t our hometown train station.
Then, Shi Ran turned away as if he didn’t want to pay any attention to me at all.
“So, where are we staying tonight?”
Then, on the first day of the new year, things wouldn’t be like this.
The young man’s jet-black, deep eyes looked over: “Ning Ge, is there anything you want to say to me?”
“Young man, the message took a while to get back. ‘Where’s your hometown, Ning Ge?’ ”
Ning Shu hummed softly and replied in a low voice, “Go back.”
It wasn’t a picture that was posted an hour ago.
Ning Shu looked at the likes again and found that Qi Fei hadn’t liked Shi Ran’s post. Qi Fei had even liked someone else’s post half an hour ago, but he was the only one who hadn’t liked Shi Ran’s.
So Ning Shu took things and went back home.
Because it wasn’t her hometown, Ning Shu was happy to hear the sound of fireworks even during the day.
Shiran seemed to refuse, and I saw myself.
<<>>
And my mother has been a family for many years.
No one messaged me individually, but it wasn’t a mass message either.
Ning Shugan is doing well. We chatted for a while, then Shi Ran got called away by something urgent on his end.
I actually planned to stay here for too long, but it’s not because I have no feelings. Ning Shu pursed her lips, feeling a sense of both familiarity and strangeness from her family, still a little at a loss.
Ning Shu looked down, seeing the little girl’s lovely face.
Ning Shu was dumbfounded and realized what the young man was going through.
It’s clear that the young man wants to say something but hesitates. His expression betrays him; even Shi Ran has noticed it.
Not when it’s burning.
It looks harmonious, but I’m still not sure how to fit in.
I also just know this confusion didn’t come from anywhere, but it wasn’t long before I was interrupted by lots of New Year messages.
Over there, a little girl’s clear voice rang out.
And my non-blood related sister also dislikes me.
It’s not that I don’t have feelings, nor is it because of the fact that my family was restructured. Ning Shu knows that my mother and stepfather haven’t been very good to me.
It’s not because I’m not attracted to men that I just randomly made this up, right? I mean, it doesn’t even make sense.
It’s not about Ning Shu herself.
“That’s what I was thinking, not necessarily asking it like this: “Shi Ran, where are our parents?”
During the New Year, Ning Shu gave Nan Nan a red envelope, and the family had a reunion dinner.
At that moment, Shi Ran looked over. His expression turned cold instantly: “No.”
Ning Shu wasn’t surprised. I held back and asked, “Shi Ran, are our parents back?”
Of course Ning Shu agreed. I changed my shoes and went out, “Shí Rán, let’s send each other our locations, I’ll pick you up.”
“Shi Ran replied quickly: ‘Traffic jam, I think I missed the last bus back.'”
Shi Ran wore a long coat, not only was he tall, but his legs were also long. His outstandingly cold and aloof eyebrows and eyes caused many women beside him to glance over.
I purse my lips, saying dryly, “Can we just eat dinner out?”
Then he saw Shi Ran.
I pursed my lips and replied with a “Happy New Year”.
Then she gave birth to a sister who wasn’t related to me by blood.
But Ning Shu thought again, Shi Ran wasn’t here specifically to visit his teacher, he probably would be leaving soon. If I rashly invited him, it would probably make him uncomfortable.
Ning Shu looked at the book for a while, I looked at my phone, but didn’t see any familiar avatars on my friends’ list.
I finished my meal and then stayed in the living room with us for a while before returning to my room.
“Shall we go back?”
Ning Shu replied.
Ning Shu just knew what I was thinking. I blurted out, “If you want, come to my place.”
So I didn’t bother him again.
I took a look at my phone and sent another message to Qi Fei.
Ning Shu glanced at the girl who was being pulled away by her friend, still reluctantly turning her head back to look again and again. She looked at Shi Ran’s face then sighed inwardly.
This brought some comfort to Ning Shu’s heart, although the young man wasn’t famous before and only ranked tenth now. But Shi Ran was very excellent, she believed that in a short time, he would be just like before.
….
Ning Shu sighed. Two days, no wonder Shi Ran didn’t even let them eat New Year’s Eve dinner outside. I couldn’t help but feel something in my heart.
Ning Shu actually didn’t think it was strange, because Shi Ran’s parents rarely came back. Even if their business was busy, they would still stay for a while during the New Year.
“Shi Ran hummed and said, “Before coming to visit, Teacher, I happened to…”
After hanging up the phone, Ning Shu felt a pang of confusion. Because this world, I had no mother. But it wasn’t that my mother passed away several years ago; she had formed a new family with another man.
The woman over there, her voice was so careful and gentle.
After our stepfather left, the house immediately felt empty.
My stepfather hasn’t even gotten my mother’s approval, but he’s already acting like it’s a done deal. He’s just not embarrassed at all! “There are no other rooms in the house,” he said. “If our friends come over, we won’t have anywhere for them to stay.”
Then I thought seriously, last time Shi Ran said his ideal type… was someone with very fair skin, even if they were short, and had a good temper…
Ning Shu widened her eyes, suddenly feeling a bit lost.
And if I wasn’t staying here, then Qi Fei’s family would probably invite me to spend the New Year there.
“I seem to have just caught the bus.”
Then I just smiled and picked him up.
Let me finish my sentence.
And I, Mom didn’t wipe her hands either, smiling and saying: “Nannan misses us, doesn’t she?”
Ning Shu had gone back in time, and then I saw Shi Ran being submerged in a sea of blessings.
