Chapter 51: Getting together before a blind date

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 In the rush of youth, they ushered in the New Year's Day holiday, which heralded the end of the old year and the arrival of the new year.

There was suddenly a tense learning atmosphere in the school.

After the New Year's Day holiday, there will be intense preparations and exams, followed by the long winter vacation.

Even Ling Yechen, who doesn’t come to school often, comes to class occasionally.

Although she had three days off, Hu Tao did not go home. Firstly, because of the long distance, and secondly, the fare was too expensive, so it was not cost-effective to go home.

Ling Yechen was urged to go home by his mother.

I will go to school on the 3rd on the 1st and come back to class on the 4th.

He went back on the night of thirty-one.

When he came downstairs the next day, there were already many people at home.

His brother just told him that his family would invite him to dinner today.

He didn't take it seriously and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.

In the kitchen, Wu Ma was washing vegetables. When she saw him coming in, she smiled and said, "Yechen is up, are you hungry? If you want to eat something, I'll make it for you."

Ling Yeshen nodded and said, "Well, anything is fine. Why don't you cook me a bowl of noodles?"

Wu Ma nodded, put down what she was doing, and took out a handful of noodles from the cabinet to prepare.

Ling Yechen didn't go out, and stood in the kitchen and asked, "Mother Wu, do you know who my mother and the others invited to our house for dinner today?"

Wu's mother said as she cooked the noodles: "I heard from your mother that she is a classmate. Today is a holiday, and we have made an appointment to come to the house to have a lively atmosphere. Some have already arrived, and a few have not come. They said that dinner will start at 12:30 noon."
"I was asked to prepare it yesterday. There will be a barbecue at noon and stir-fry in the evening. I have prepared all the vegetables and meat."

Ling Yechen nodded, waited for Wu Ma to make the noodles, and then left directly with the bowl.

After leaving the kitchen, go directly to the room upstairs.

He could see from the window that his parents and a group of people were sitting in the yard drinking tea and chatting.

He didn't want to join in the fun, and he didn't want to be seen going downstairs to find food, so he planned to sneak back to his room.

If it weren't for the bombardment of calls from his mother, he really didn't want to go home and was not free at all, so he overslept this morning and didn't come downstairs until after ten o'clock.

He just went up the stairs and bumped into his brother at the corner.

"Brother, what are you carrying?" Ling Yexing looked into his bowl.

Ling Yeshen didn't reply and wanted to spare him directly.

But then I heard him say: "Brother, we have a treat at home today. If you sleep until this point, you won't be afraid of mom scolding you."

Ling Yeshen stopped, glanced at him, and said threateningly: "Don't tell me whether you saw it or not. I heard it."

After saying that, he stomped upstairs.

Ling Yexing was left alone in the corridor, looking at his brother's back with an angry look on his face. He was threatened again, and he was a little scared.

What should he do? Well, he can only pretend not to see it, otherwise his brother may not buy him gaming equipment next time.

There is no way, there is a rich brother, and he often bribes him with money, he seems to like it a bit.

He could only pretend that he didn't see anything and went downstairs silently.

Ling Yechen locked the door after entering, put the bowl on the table, took out his mobile phone and started a video for Hutao.

Hutao was typing in the room and saw Ling Yeshen's video. He hesitated for a while and finally answered it.

Then I heard Ling Yeshen's voice: "Have you had breakfast?"

Hutao: "I've eaten. I got up at eight o'clock to eat."

Ling Yeshen: "What are you eating?"

Hu Tao thought about it and said, "What else could the leftover porridge from last night be?"

Ling Yeshen: "I just ate, look, I ate noodles."

While talking, he pointed the camera at the noodles.

Hutao also praised: "It looks good."

Ling Yechen opened his eyes and lied, showing off: "Of course, I cooked it myself."

Hutao flattered her: "It's amazing."

Ling Yechen smiled and said, "By the way, help me wash the clothes I changed out of yesterday."

Hu Tao shook his head and refused: "If you don't wash it, it will be cold."

Ling Yechen said: "You don't have to touch the water, just put it in the washing machine and help dry it after it's washed."

Hutao still refused: "No, I'm not your mother."

Although the two of them lived together, except for the time when Hu Tao's foot was injured and Ling Yechen helped her wash her clothes, they both washed their own clothes.

Hu Tao never refused to help him wash clothes and cook.

Later, Ling Yechen moved a fully automatic washing machine and placed it in the bathroom.

Ling Yechen said: "Just help me, wash the clothes for me, and I will introduce you to a profitable job when I come back. How about I guarantee that you make a fortune?"

When Hutao heard about making money, her eyes lit up and she agreed without even thinking.

Ling Yeshen complained helplessly: "I'm really a money addict."

Hutao: "Of course, you would be a fool not to make money if you have money."

Then he hung up the phone and said that he was going to help him wash clothes.

Ling Yechen was amused by her.

After eating some noodles, I opened my laptop and started studying.

And I still studied university courses.

If a classmate saw a scene like Ling Yechen's, their jaws might drop.

This highly talented student, whom everyone thinks is a genius, is secretly listening to online courses alone and studying seriously.

There was a lively scene downstairs, with several young people sitting in the living room and many in the yard.

At half past twelve, everyone started to barbecue by themselves.

Qin Suyue glanced into the living room several times, but did not see the shadow of his eldest son.

The people next to me have already begun to ask: "Where is your eldest son? Didn't he say he was back? Why don't you come to the barbecue?"

Qin Suyue called Ling Yexing and said, "It's outrageous to go upstairs and call your brother. The elders are already here, why don't you come down?"

Ling Yexing: "Mom, stop yelling. My brother just finished eating in the kitchen, and then he said he wanted to go back to study, so he went back to his room."

Qin Suyue looked at Wu Ma and asked, "Has he eaten?"

Wu's mother replied: "After eating, he came down at about ten o'clock and asked me to cook noodles for him. He said he had something to do when he returned to the room."

Qin Suyue then said to the people around her: "I'm sorry, my son hasn't liked to join in the fun since he was a child. He might be studying in his room, or..."

Then she didn't say anything anymore. She originally wanted to ask Gao Yizhen to go upstairs, but she thought it was inappropriate and didn't say anything.

Gao Yizhen is the daughter of her classmate, and she is the same age as his son.

The original purpose of today was to let Ling Yeshen and Gao Yizhen go on a blind date, but unexpectedly his son simply refused to go downstairs.

She was really pissed off.

But there were so many people around, so I still took out my phone and started a video for Ling Yeshen.

The video will be connected immediately.

The first thing she saw was not her son’s face, but the course on the laptop.

You can also hear the teacher’s cadence of lecture.

"Chenchen, are you studying?"

"Mom, what's wrong?" Ling Yechen turned the camera to him and asked.

When Qin Suyue saw that his son was indeed studying, his anger disappeared immediately.

He quickly said to Ling Yechen: "I just want to tell you that we are having a barbecue downstairs. You can come down and play together. There are many friends of your age at home today."

Ling Yechen didn't want to refute his face, so he nodded and said: "You guys can eat, I'm not hungry. I'll go downstairs after I finish listening to this lesson."

Qin Suyue couldn't force him, it was good that he was willing to go downstairs later.

After hanging up the phone, I started to take care of the guests.

Gao Yizhen sat next to Qin Suyue and asked in a low voice: "Aunt Qin, are Yechen coming down?"

Qin Suyue smiled, took her hand and said: "He is taking online classes. He will go downstairs after the class is over. Auntie will take you to get to know him later. This son of mine is too polite and doesn't like to talk.

How patient you are."
