"I'm back~"
At 4:30 in the afternoon, Su Xuefei returned home as scheduled. Perhaps she was walking too fast, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Chen Xing took the schoolbag from her hand and handed her a tissue.
"Thank you." Su Xuefei took the tissue and wiped it gently.
"What grade are you in?" Chen Xing asked casually.
Su Xuefei's face turned red immediately, because Chen Xing's tone was like asking a primary school student, how old is he this year and what grade is he in?
"Fifth grade of middle school." Although her ears were burning and her face was as red as a ripe apple, Su Xuefei still answered obediently.
"You're in fifth grade, you're so awesome." Chen Xing praised, and Su Xuefei's face turned even redder. The other person's expression and tone were like praising a primary school student.
"How are you studying? Did you listen carefully in class? How about I test you..."
"Ah!" Su Xuefei exclaimed, and before she could stop her, Chen Xing had already opened her handbag.
The textbooks are well kept, the paper is clean, and the handwriting is neat. Chen Xing opened the book, flipped through a few pages, and asked seriously, "What is the square of sine plus the square of cosine?"
"One." Su Xuefei replied reflexively, then realized her gaffe and almost fainted from embarrassment.
"Very good." Chen Xing praised, then took out the history textbook, flipped through it, and asked, "How many members were there in the first session of the Human Survival Committee?"
Su Xuefei hesitated and replied, "The nine people were originally composed of the leaders of seven underground survival centers in the central wilderness and two ivory tower scholars. They were originally called the Life Alliance. After the seventh long table meeting, they were renamed the Human Survival Committee."
"What is a long table meeting and how many times have it been held in total?" Chen Xing asked.
"The Human Survival Committee uses a long table for meetings. The long side is for the heads of states, symbolizing the scepter, and the other side is empty, symbolizing the unknown enemy; the short side is for the scholars, a total of three people, and the ivory tower in the middle. The chief scholar, on the left and right are the chief academicians of the Eastern and Western Continental Academy Alliance, symbolizing science and technology. On the other side are the neutral parties, a total of five people. In the middle is the Secretary-General of the Committee, on the left is the World Bank representative, and on the right are three Large church representative.”
Su Xuefei put her hands behind her back and answered fluently.
"The Long Table Conference takes place every five years, and there have been fifty-nine meetings so far."
"Very good." Chen Xing nodded, and then said, "I'm going to test you in Western Continental to see how well you learn."
"You take the test." Su Xuefei raised her chin and said confidently.
"What is the second letter of hu Er Band?" Chen Xing asked.
"u." "What is the second letter of wife?" "i." "Very good, let's do it again, hu. What is the second letter of Band?"
"U..." Su Xuefei hesitated for a moment and finally understood. Suddenly the red clouds flew up and she stamped her foot hard, "Bad guy, I'm ignoring you!"
"Haha!" Chen Xing laughed, then caught up with him and said in a sincere tone, "I'm sorry, right? You were joking."
"That's too much!" Su Xuefei gritted her teeth and hit him.
"Come on, let's play a piece of music." "I'll play it for you." "Don't be so stingy." "Just be stingy, that's all." Su Xuefei put her hands on her waist and feigned anger.
"This is what you promised me yesterday." "So what?" "Those who abide by the agreement are good students, otherwise they are bad students and will be spanked." Chen Xing said seriously.
"You, you are too much..." Su Xuefei blushed and bit her lips until they turned white. In all her life, she has never seen such a shameless guy. He took advantage of her twice in less than three sentences.
"Haha..." Seeing Su Xuefei's embarrassed and annoyed look, Chen Xing laughed. Seeing that she was unhappy, he coaxed, "Come on, let's play a piece of music. I'll give you a gift when I'm done."
“I don’t want it.” “I’ll treat you to a meal.” “No.” “I’ll treat you to a movie.” “No, no.” “I’ll treat you to a meal, watch a movie, and give you a gift.”
After three attempts, Su Xuefei was finally persuaded, but she hesitated, "My mother would disagree."
"I'll convince her." Chen Xing said.
"My mother is very stubborn." Su Xuefei said worriedly.
"Don't be afraid, I know hypnosis, she will definitely agree." Chen Xing comforted.
"Is it the kind of hypnosis that involves using a coin to swing on a rope?" Su Xuefei asked curiously.
"Almost." Chen Xing said.
"Is it really useful?" Su Xuefei didn't believe it.
"I promise." Chen Xing said seriously. If you want to hypnotize Su Muchu, it's actually very simple. You just need to change the coins into gold coins.
Not long after, the brisk sound of the piano came from the study, echoing in the narrow corridor...
The bonfire was rising and the castle was filled with joy.
Colorful flags were hung everywhere and people sang songs happily.
She was wearing a wedding dress and looking at him with a smile.
Meteors streak across the sky, leaving a dazzling light.
Time stops at this moment.
As long as you have a dream, that's all...
There is a touch of sadness in the beautiful melody, which makes people sigh that the beauty in the world is always fleeting. It shines like fireworks in the night sky and disappears in an instant. Only in dreams can we stay in that lingering moment forever.
In the haze, the girl in front of him and the figure in the shabby hotel gradually overlapped, making it impossible to distinguish between reality and memory.
The song ended, but the expected applause and praise never came. Su Xuefei slowly raised her head, only to find that the only audience member had fallen asleep. She left the piano lightly, took a blanket, and covered the young mercenary.
"Sir, I wish you a good dream." Su Xuefei said softly, turned off the light and left the room.
I don’t know how long it took before Chen Xing woke up leisurely.
Orange-red firelight, noisy sounds, ale glasses on the old wooden table, and figures coming and going.
He raised his head drowsily and found himself in a strange bar. But he didn't feel strange or uncomfortable, as if he had been here for a long time and everything was natural.
"Hey, handsome guy, do you want someone to accompany you tonight?" A group of shadows sat down next to him, and then left in low spirits.
"Brother, would you like some more wine? Today's rye is on sale." A shadow passed by the table, paused, and then left again.
"Black Jack, I won!" "Brother, would you like a cigarette?" "Cheers, for this damn rainy day, my mecha is almost rusty." "After this battle, I should go home I got a wife." "Well, it's time for me to go back and see my old father."
There are more and more sounds around me, and it’s getting noisier. It’s like there are many people whispering in my ears. It’s very noisy, but you can’t hear clearly.
Suddenly, a voice of discussion broke through the crowd, like a breath of fresh air among the chaos.
"I heard that there was a fire in Crow City." "Yes, I just came over there. From the elevated road, the fire was so big that the whole sky turned red." "Are many people dead?" "Then I don’t know, half the city is gone anyway.” “Oh my God…”
Chen Xing subconsciously glanced at the black watch on his wrist.
