Wen Nian got up as she read the comments. She reached out to open the door and prepared to wash up.
“You’re in love at a young age!” A sinister voice sounded from the door.
Wen Nian was so startled that she nearly jumped up in fright. When she realized that it was Wen Yu leaning against the door, looking at her with narrowed eyes, she slapped his arm forcefully. “Are you trying to give me a heart attack on the first day of the Lunar New Year?!”
Wen Yu snorted. “Don’t try to change the topic. I saw your post last night.”
Wen Nian had to deny the implication. She spread her hands and explained, “I was merely expressing my feelings about the beauty of the spring moon. It was a literal statement. If you interpret it too deeply, there’s nothing I can do about it.”
Wen Nian directly made Wen Yu speechless. After all, just from the literal meaning, there was really no hint of romance.
Wen Nian smiled and gently pushed Wen Yu away. With her hands behind her back, she walked to the living room to greet her parents and get red packets.
Wen Nian had to start work on the third day of Lunar New Year and scheduled to start the tutoring session on the fourth day of Lunar New Year with Shen Jun.
As it was still the New Year period, Shen Jun began to offer his New Year greetings as soon as he entered the house. “Happy New Year, Uncle and Auntie.
1 wish you both good health and prosperity in the coming year.”
Zhou Mei, with a smile on her face, promptly handed Shen Jun a red packet. “Little Shen, Happy New Year! I wish you great success in your studies and hope your wishes come true!”
Shen Jun took it and thanked her. Wen Nian led her into the bedroom.
From 7 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., they had already covered approximately one-third of the knowledge covered in the first semester of their second year of high school.
Despite Director Xu’s efforts to prioritize shooting Wen Nian’s scenes, it significantly disrupted the progress of the supplementary class. Shen Jun furrowed his brows, feeling concerned. “At most, we can only catch up with the last semester’s material before taking a break. There’s hardly any point in considering the second semester of our second year of high school.”
Wen Nian understood that there were inevitable trade-offs. Despite being mentally prepared, she couldn’t help feeling a twinge of disappointment. Letting out a soft sigh, she said, “Well, I guess we’ll have to rely on this year’s summer vacation to catch up.”
The upcoming summer break before their third year of high school presented their last opportunity to catch up on their studies. When Shen Jun heard this, a sense of delight washed over him. Didn’t this mean that they could spend the summer break together without any constraints or hidden agendas?
Shen Jun spoke with a serious tone, fully committed to their academic goals. “If there’s no other option, then we’ll have to do it this way. If we dedicate ourselves to daily studying, two months should be sufficient for us to catch up.”
Wen Nian nodded. “By the way, I have holiday tomorrow. What time are you coming over?”
Shen Jun was taken aback by the coincidence of the timing. He had promised his mom that he would take Tingting sightseeing tomorrow. He forced a stiff smile and lied, “There will be guests at my house tomorrow, so I won’t be able to tutor you.”
Wen Nian didn’t think too much about it. She smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll stay in the hotel and work on the practice papers tomorrow.”
The second day was the fifth day of Lunar New Year. To prevent Shen Jun from running away, Zhao Jiao specially asked the Shen Family’s chauffeur to drive Shen Jun and Tingting around.
Shen Jun got into the car with a cold expression. Zhao Jiao observed his demeanor and couldn’t help but feel pleased. “Son, make sure to entertain Tingting well. Remember to bring her back for dinner tonight.”
Jin Ting was already waiting at the entrance of her villa when Shen Jun arrived. She got into the Shen family’s car with a cheerful smile, greeting Shen Jun warmly. “Brother Shen Jun, it’s been at least ten years since we last saw each other. I’ve missed you so much during my time overseas. How about you? Did you miss me?”
Jin Ting, having been exposed to Western culture, was unreserved in expressing her emotions and showcasing her fondness for Shen Jun.
Shen Jun chuckled awkwardly. He swiftly responded, attempting to divert any suspicions. “You know, Jin Ting, I’ve always considered you like a sister to me. So, of course, I miss you too.”.
When Jin Ting heard this, she looked at Shen Jun shyly. “Brother Shen Jun, we’re not biological siblings. Do you still remember that I said 1 would marry you when 1 grow up?”
Shen Jun couldn’t handle Jin Ting’s straightforwardness. He knew he needed clarify their relationship to avoid any future confusion. “Tingting, you are still young. When you grow older, your thoughts will naturally change.”
Jin Ting remained undeterred by Shen Jun’s tactful rejection, maintaining her cheerful demeanor. She persisted, saying, “I understand that you may not believe me, but that’s alright. I’ll prove it to you. Brother Shen Jun, I want to visit the Forbidden City. Could you take me there?”
Upon seeing this, Shen Jun couldn’t be bothered to say anything more. Adolescent children always seemed more determined to prove themselves when faced with objections. Regardless, he had already expressed what he needed to say and cared little about the remainder.
Observing that Jin Ting had a particular destination in mind, Shen Jun instructed the driver to take them to the Forbidden City. As far as he was concerned, it made no difference to him where someone he disliked chose to go-
