Rebirth: Growing Up Together

Like something was doused.

Xu Cheng asked tentatively, "Lin Wanzhou, have you finished your homework this week?"

"Ok?"

Lin Wanzhou didn't react immediately. "Oh, I've finished it. I've memorized all the words for the math homework. Chinese... Chinese, what was that..."

Xu Cheng sighed.

I must be thinking nonsense...

"Cough cough." He coughed a few times, stood up, and sat next to Lin Wanzhou under her strange gaze.

The black leather sofa sank downwards, and she felt her whole body involuntarily sink a little towards him.

Like magnet meeting iron...

Xu Cheng said softly, "Actually, I'm not that hungry. It doesn't matter if I eat later. Are you hungry?"

"Gulu~"

The sound in my stomach made an inopportune sound.

Lin Wanzhou's face turned red. "I, I'll just have some snacks to fill my stomach. I don't want to eat too early..."

She found a boiled egg from her schoolbag and took small bites of it.

Dusk was only a brief moment. As night fell, the world became dim. Xu Cheng fumbled to find the switch of the lounge light.

The room illuminated by the incandescent light felt a little cold, and the delicate flowers on the coffee table suddenly looked a little wilted.

Lin Wanzhou sat quietly on the sofa, head down, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Xu Cheng didn't know how to comfort her. Today was the weekend and tomorrow was Monday, which meant that she had to go back to Jinghai tonight.

Looking at the time, it was already past seven o'clock. If they waited for Gao Manman to take them back, buy groceries, and cook, it would probably be ten o'clock.

Noticing Xu Cheng staring at him with a worried look on his face, Lin Wanzhou smiled bitterly, "Xu Cheng, it seems that I don't have time for my mother to cook today. Let's ask her to take us out to eat something later."

After that, he remembered something and added confidently, "Don't worry, we will have all the dishes you ordered, spicy chicken, braised pork trotters, crispy pork, and salt and pepper shrimp. I remember them very clearly!"

Xu Cheng couldn't help but touch her head, "Silly girl, I can actually eat anything."

"I will keep my promise..."

The female employee in a black suit came again, "Zhou Zhou, handsome boy, I'm about to get off work... You haven't eaten yet, how about I take you to eat first? Director Gao's meeting today is very important, and it will probably take a long time. If not... Can I go tell her now?"

Lin Wanzhou tried to smile, "Don't bother her at work, it's okay, sister, you go first, I'll wait until mom finishes the meeting and then go eat with her."

The female staff tried to persuade her several times but to no avail, so she had to point out the location of the meeting room to Lin Wanzhou, "It's the one at the end of the corridor. If you hear any noise outside the corridor, it means the meeting is over."

The two nodded.

I was on duty on the weekend, and it was getting dark now. Most of the lights in the building were off, with only a few rooms on.

In the lounge, the black clock hands were ticking, and each tick seemed to strike at the girl's remaining bit of hope.

As the night grew darker, she took off her shoes, stepped on the edge of the sofa in her little white socks, hugged her knees with her hands, buried her little head between her legs, and sounded a little depressed.

"I'm sorry, Xu Cheng... the dinner I promised you is going to be cancelled... I made you come with me for nothing..."

Xu Cheng comforted her, "It's not soaked in water. I just want to eat instant noodles now. Can you treat me to the bag in your schoolbag?"

Lin Wanzhou turned her head, her eyes red, "Don't comfort me like this, and there are not even chopsticks here... How can I eat..."

Xu Cheng took out the instant noodles, crushed them into pieces, tore open the bag and ate handfuls of them. Seeing Lin Wanzhou looking at him strangely, he also handed the noodles to her face.

"Want to eat?"

Lin Wanzhou hesitated for a few seconds, then stretched out her little hand, grabbed a handful and put it in her mouth.

"Is it tasty?"

"Um……"

Lin Wanchu nodded.

Delicious enough to make up for the missed dinner...

Chapter 103: Already Satisfied

The night was dark and outside the window, crickets could be heard chirping "Qu, Qu, Qu..." from time to time.

Lin Wanzhou couldn't help yawning while sitting on the sofa, her chest heaving slightly. She leaned on the armrest on one side of the sofa, half closing her eyes sleepily.

"It's already late, Xu Cheng, why don't we go back..."

The plan to have dinner has been cancelled by the two of them, and the girl’s only wish now is to see her mother again.

"We've already waited until now, so a little longer won't make a difference." Xu Cheng said, leaning against the back of the sofa.

Lin Wanzhou's calves were curled up on the sofa, the soles of her feet in white socks were facing him, the arch of her feet had a beautiful curve, there were a few wrinkles on the edges of the white socks wrapped around her ankles, and the heels were faintly flesh-colored.

Of course, Xu Cheng is a serious person, without any evil thoughts in his mind, he simply thinks she is very cute and beautiful.

As if she sensed that someone was trying to attack her, her little feet quickly shrank back and folded together in a defensive posture. The soles of her little white socks were wrinkled like waves, as if she could kick (hen) (tai) in the face in the next second.

"Why do you keep staring at people's legs?"

"No, just looking at your socks."

Lin Wanzhou's eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings and she looked at him suspiciously.

"really?"

"Ding Zhen!"

"Well...socks aren't that important..."

The girl relaxed slightly.

The lounge fell silent. Just as Xu Cheng squinted his eyes and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard Lin Wanzhou's voice again.

"Xu Cheng, how are we going to get back later?"

"..."

"Xu Cheng?"

"I'm almost falling asleep..."

"Oh... sorry, let's sleep together then."

What about sleeping together?

Xu Cheng said helplessly, "Your mother must send you back in person. Although there are taxis, it is too unsafe to take a night train."

"I don't want her to see me off. She's been working so long today, she should go to bed early. Do you have any other ideas?"

"Then just call me daddy..."

"Ah?" Lin Wanzhou's face flushed red, as if water was about to drip out, "Why are you suddenly like this..."

"Otherwise, we can only ask her to take us there. Taking a night train is not safe... She will definitely not feel at ease."

"Then you can't let others call you dad... that's too much..."

Small book of crimes +1

Xu Cheng couldn't help but tap her between the eyebrows, "You've fallen into a daze since you slept so much, I mean let your dad come pick us up..."

"Oh, that's it."

The girl covered her forehead and bit her lip in embarrassment.

The crime in the small book - 1

"Call him now. It'll take more than an hour to get here...it's already late, and we'll have to leave by then anyway."

Lin Wanzhou pursed her lips and nodded. After finishing the call, she didn't forget to tell Xu Cheng.

"My dad will be here soon."

"Well, I'll take a nap."

Xu Cheng leaned on the sofa, looking very tired, with his eyes squinted and his breathing became even.

Lin Wanzhou also pretended to close her eyes, but actually squinted her eyes and looked at him secretly.

She didn't believe Xu Cheng's lies just now. What about looking at her socks? Maybe he had some intentions on other parts of her.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but put his arms over his chest to protect this important part of the girl's body.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he looked a little proud.

Someone like Guo Zining is so cumbersome and must be very difficult to protect, but someone like her who is so cute makes it easy.

The bright bouquets of flowers all glowed slightly against the backdrop of the bright moonlight. The night breeze blew in from the window, lifting up the magazines casually placed on the table and blowing through the girl's hair.

Unconsciously, sleepiness invaded her heart. Her smooth and delicate calves stretched freely, and her feet wrapped in white socks accidentally stepped on Xu Cheng's thigh.

I can't stretch my legs and feet, which is very uncomfortable.

It seemed that the sensory organs received the signal, the afferent nerves transmitted the signal to the nerve center, and after the brain processed it, it decided to make a behavioral response by lifting the foot on Xu Cheng's leg.

So the action became, one foot stepped on Xu Cheng's leg, and the other foot went behind Xu Cheng's waist.

Like holding him between legs...

Girls like to put something between their legs when they sleep, such as a blanket or a sleeping bear...

I feel very safe and sleep very soundly.

While sleeping, Xu Cheng vaguely heard some sound beside his ear. He opened his eyes and listened carefully for a while, only to find that someone was talking in the corridor.

Seeing Lin Wanzhou's lingering sleeping posture, he felt a little helpless, but he didn't find it strange. After all, he had slept with this girl many times and was very familiar with her sleeping habits.

She moved her little feet away, bent over and walked to the door, looked outside, and found that the door of the conference room was wide open and many adults walked out.

Lin Wanzhou was still sleeping soundly, and he shook her shoulder.

"The meeting is over."

Lin Wanzhou sat up dazedly. Xu Cheng handed her the big plastic water bottle and said, "Drink some water."

She also felt dry mouth, so she held the bottle and gulped down several mouthfuls, and gradually regained consciousness.

After she realized what was happening, she hurriedly shook her legs, tapped her feet in the air and finally found her shoes. She lifted her heels with her hands and ran to the door in small steps. Xu Cheng reminded her.

"Your flowers..."

"Oh."

They didn't know where to find Gao Manman, so they planned to go to her office first. Through the crack in the door, they could see that the light was on in the room. They knocked on the door, but no one responded for a long time.

Xu Cheng tiptoed and pushed the door open, and the two of them discovered a figure sleeping on the table. It was Gao Manman.

"Should we wake her up?" Xu Cheng asked in a low voice.

Lin Wanzhou shook his head.

She walked quietly to her mother, put her clothes on her again, and placed the bouquet quietly on the table in front of her.

After thinking for a while, she grabbed the ballpoint pen on her desk and wrote "Happy Mother's Day" on the greeting card, then pushed Xu Cheng out of the room.

"Is this okay?"

"Well, I'm happy enough."

After waiting for a few minutes in the evening breeze, Lin Wanzhou's father drove to the door of Gao Manman's unit.

Two people sat in the back seat and the car drove towards Jinghai. The car was dimly lit.

Halfway through the journey, Lin Wanzhou glanced at Xu Cheng, who was taking a nap beside him.

"Ok?"

She leaned over to Xu Cheng's ear and whispered, "Xu Cheng, I still feel bad that I didn't let you eat the meal I promised you..."

"It doesn't matter. Just make it up to me next time."

After saying that, he held his chin and looked out the window. As he was in a daze, his hand was suddenly touched by something cold.

Xu Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, turned around, and found that Lin Wanzhou was also imitating him, holding his chin and looking out the window.
