After walking downstairs, Tang Qianmiao tugged her ear and there was a speechless expression on her fair and beautiful face.
That damned low and hoarse voice. Every word he said had been heard by her. No words were left out. She suddenly felt inexplicably itchy.
Who would have expected this man to be so narcissistic?
Just as she returned next door and went upstairs, she bumped into Qiao Shiwan who was about to knock on her door.
“Aunt Wan.”
Qiao Shiwan turned around and immediately smiled happily. “I’ve made you some supper and they are all dishes that I’ve learned recently. Please try them and tell me if they are good so I can improve on them.”
In all honesty, Qiao Shiwan’s amiable enthusiasm surprised Tang Qianmiao. She felt overwhelmed and flattered by her unexpected care. The feeling that she received from the families in the East Wing and West Wing were complete opposites.
“Thank you, Aunt Wan.”
“You don’t have to thank me, we’re family and we don’t need to thank one another for something like this. Have a good rest after eating it. Go to school with Feng Can tomorrow and you don’t have to worry about the rest, you have me here.”
Once Qiao Shiwan had left again, Tang Qianmiao stared at the supper but didn’t eat it. In her calm gaze was a myriad of unspoken thoughts.
After a while, she ate a rice ball. It was sweet and there seemed to be an additional flavor in it that she couldn’t describe.
Whatever it was, it made her feel pretty good.
——-
The next day morning, 7am.
Feng Can was stuffed into the car by Qiao Shiwan.
“Study hard and learn well in school, don’t create trouble for me. You’re already in the third year of high school, so it’s time for you to learn! Qin, drive.”
Sleepiness was written on his face. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Mom, am I not waiting for Tang Qianmiao?”
“She already left half an hour ago. Oh yes, let me give you a task. Miao Miao has just transferred to your school and she might not be accustomed to the new environment. Try to look out for her, alright?”
Feng Can blinked and said quickly, “I will promise you if I buy me a car.”
“Talk to me about it after you’ve gotten into Beijing University. Qin, you can drive.”
Dejection was written over Feng Can’s face. He took out his phone and started playing a game to dispel his sadness. Not long later, Qin suddenly stopped his car.
Feng Can looked up and asked, “Why did you stop?”
“Young Master, look.”
Outside the car, Lin Wenyu was standing at his door in her school uniform. She had a ponytail tied with uniform bangs covering her forehead, looking every part the obedient student.
Feng Can lowered the car window and there was confusion on his attractive face.
“Why are you here?”
By then, Lin Wenyu had already walked to him. She bit her lips and said, “Feng Can, is my cousin here?”
“Your cousin?”
Feng Can took a while before realizing what she meant before he replied plainly, “She left long ago.”
Lin Wenyu bit her lip. “Ah? I brought breakfast here, intending to eat with her and go to school together after that.”
“She didn’t tell you that she left already?” Feng Can didn’t understand the situation.
Lin Wenyu looked innocent as she replied, “I don’t know. What should I do, school is about to start. Is there anywhere I can take a cab nearby?”
With that, Feng Can opened the car door and said, “Why would you have to take a cab? Hop on, I’ll take you to school.”
Lin Wenyu’s gaze brightened and she smiled as she said, “Thank you, Feng Can.”
After she entered the car, Lin Wenyu observed the interior of the car carefully.
“Feng Can, is this car… your brother’s?”
Feng Can was playing a game and answered distractedly, “No, my brother doesn’t allow any random person to sit in his car.”
Lin Wenyu turned her gaze elsewhere. She seemed to be thinking about something and she didn’t speak anymore.
They reached the school’s entrance in no time.
Lin Wenyu and Feng Can got out of the car at the same time. After walking for a few steps, Feng Can stopped and gestured towards the front with his chin.
“Your cousin.”
Lin Wenyu looked over and she saw Tang Qianmiao ride her motorcycle into the school. She wasn’t wearing the school uniform and her baseball cap was worn the opposite way. Together with the jeans and jacket she wore, she looked as cool as a guy.
There wasn’t any tinge of the gentleness and softness of a girl on her. Even so, with that face of hers, she still attracted the gaze of a huge bunch of people.
Darkness flashed across her eyes as Lin Wenyu bit her lip.
“Didn’t she leave home long ago? Why did she only arrive now?” Feng Can asked subconsciously.
Lin Wenyu pursed her lips and answered, “Actually, my cousin may be a little difficult to understand.”
“Huh?” Feng Can was confused.
