Jiang Chun noticed Shen Jun’s guilt-ridden expression and, with a lighthearted demeanor, placed a reassuring hand on his arm. She joked, “Don’t dwell on it too much. It’s really nothing. Nowadays, medical technology is so advanced that a few skin transplants can easily fix it. Besides, it’s on the inside of my arm. Even if there’s a faint mark, who would be scrutinizing my hand all day?”
Shen Jun raised an eyebrow and said, “Seeing you now, it’s clear that you haven’t changed at all. You’ve always been thoughtful and considerate towards others, just like when we were young.”
Observing the interaction between Shen Jun and Jiang Chun, Wen Nian recognized that she couldn’t interject or impose herself into their conversation. They were engrossed in their own shared memories. As an outsider to their history, she couldn’t force herself into this conversation.
instead of childishly seeking attention, Wen Nian listened silently from the sidelines.
The two of them chatted until the bell rang for the first period of class.
Jiang Chun smoothly retrieved her phone before the arrival of the teacher and casually suggested, “Shen Jun, let’s exchange contact information and become friends.”
Shen Jun opened the WeChat app, and the two of them proceeded to add each other as friends on the platform.
With the cast on Shen Jun’s arm having been removed the previous week, the responsibility of procuring lunch during the noon break had now fallen entirely on him.
Wen Nian finally experienced the true meaning of having a boyfriend.
Jiang Ning called out to Jiang Chun, requesting her presence for lunch at the back door of the classroom. Sensing Wen Nian’s gaze, she felt a tremor run through her body, and she swallowed anxiously. However, she quickly rationalized the situation, considering the well-lit classroom and the presence of numerous witnesses. Doubting that Wen Nian would dare to take any action in such a public setting, she regained some assurance.
Jiang Ning mustered up the courage to glare back.
Wen Nian furrowed her brow as she observed Jiang Ning’s expression. She couldn’t help but feel curious about what was transpiring, but she decided to restrain herself. After all, she had previously confronted Jiang Ning, and as long as they didn’t actively provoke her, she resolved to let the matter rest.
Wen Nian retracted her gaze. contemporary romance
Jiang Ning and Wei Lai had informed their parents that they were going to meet someone before heading out. When their parents couldn’t reach them, they assumed that the two girls had become caught up in their own teenage mischief and were simply staying over at each other’s houses. Unbeknownst to them, an unforeseen incident had occurred, resulting in Jiang Ning and Wei Lai being locked up overnight.
At six o’clock, when the cleaning lady arrived to unlock the door, she discovered Jiang Ning and Wei Lai in a state of severe illness, with high fevers. The two girls were shivering uncontrollably, clinging to each other for warmth. As soon as they saw the cleaning lady, they urgently pleaded for her assistance, requesting that she call the emergency hotline.
Upon receiving the news, the Jiang and Wei families hurried to the hospital to be by the girls’ side. Despite their distressing situation, Wei Lai remained fearful of the evidence held by Wen Nian and convinced Jiang Ning, who had contemplated legal action, to exercise patience for the time being.
Desiring to handle the situation discreetly and avoid involving Wei Feng, they sought Jiang Chun’s assistance. Together, they concocted a plausible excuse to manage the matter without drawing unnecessary attention.
Jiang Chun requested Jiang Ning to wait momentarily while she remained in her seat for a while. Eventually, she rose from her seat and discreetly followed Shen Jun out of the classroom.
Wen Nian couldn’t shake off a lingering feeling of suspicion, wondering if Jiang Chun had intentionally delayed her departure earlier. It seemed apparent to her that Jiang Chun’s intention was to leave the classroom alongside Shen Jun.
In the subsequent days, Jiang Chun didn’t actively engage Shen Jun in reminiscing about their shared past, as she had done on the first day. Instead, she simply greeted him at school each day and occasionally asked a few questions. There was no physical contact happening accidentally.
Compared to other ordinary students, she was just closer to Shen Jun.
When certain classmates, prone to gossip, observed Jiang Chun’s behavior towards Shen Jun, they couldn’t help but speculate that there might be something more than friendship between them. Their observations fueled rumors and whispers within the class.
With Shen Jun’s arm fully healed and his parents, Shen Gang and Auntie Jiang, back in the capital, he regained his private moments with Wen Nian. They were able to spend quality time together once again, enjoying each other’s company.
During the weekend.
Wen Nian swept the floor while Shen Jun mopped the floor behind her.
Now that they were a couple, the dynamics of their relationship naturally shifted from a remuneration-based arrangement to a genuine romantic partnership.
Wen Nian playfully glanced back at Shen Jun and quipped, “Do you regret entering this relationship? It seems that all you have to do now is sit back and let me handle everything. You’ve gotten yourself involved.”
Shen Jun gazed up at Wen Nian, a subtle smile forming in his eyes. “But you’re already in it. I’m just adding a little effort. It’s still a win for me.”
Wen Nian started to realize that Shen Jun had a dislike for doing household chores. While it didn’t bother her when they were just classmates, she began to see it as a significant issue in the context of their romantic relationship and potentially in future family dynamics.
Recognizing the importance of men participating in household chores and how it could foster a sense of responsibility towards the family, Wen Nian decided to align herself with this viewpoint. She observed the positive examples set by her father and brother, both actively contributing to household duties. Unless they were unwell, no one in the Wen family would stay at home without doing any work. With this in mind, Wen Nian aimed to implement a similar approach in her relationship with Shen Jun.
Shen Jun suddenly thought of something. “Nian Nian, Jiang Chun’s birthday is on Wednesday. We are both invited..”
