The next day, they went to school.
"Hey, I heard that Zhang Ke Ke went to stay at your house?"
Su Ye rushed to Huo Beichen's side the moment they entered the classroom. His voice was loud enough for Ning Meng and Ning Ke to hear.
Ning Meng turned around and saw Su Ye staring at Ning Ke with narrowed eyes. "She changed her name? You have the same surname as your cousin? "
Ning Meng's mouth twitched. This guy was whispering as if he was having a meeting. Did he not know how to lower his voice?
Huo Beichen ignored him and leaned on the table.
After the first class, the homeroom teacher, Mr. Liu, entered the classroom and called out to Ning Meng. "Cousin Huo Beichen, come here for a while."
Ning Meng was slightly stunned and followed him out. Mr. Liu was about forty years old and wore a pair of thick glasses. He pushed the glasses up the bridge of his nose and said, "Erm, I heard about Zhang Ke Ke … oh, she's changed her name to Ning Ke now. I heard about her."
Ning Meng was stunned. She did not know what Mr. Liu was going to say. "Oh."
Mr. Liu sighed. "I'm not responsible enough as a teacher!"
Ning Meng paused for a moment.
Mr. Liu blamed himself. "As Ning Ke's homeroom teacher, I failed to notice the changes in her heart. It's my fault!"
He sighed. "Luckily, Zhang Ke Ke met you. If not, she would still be in that kind of situation. Sigh … I wanted to ask you if you're facing any pressure in your life. If you are, you must tell me. As Zhang Ke Ke's teacher, we will help if we can. "
Ning Meng quickly waved her hand. "No, Ning Ke does not have to spend much money."
She was still not used to hearing the name 'Ning Ke'.
Seeing her like this, Ms. Liu nodded. "Well, if you need any help, just let me know."
"Okay."
After chatting with Mr. Liu, Ning Meng entered the classroom. She saw a group of girls standing outside the classroom, stretching their necks to look into the classroom.
When Ning Meng entered the classroom, she was still puzzled and asked, "Why are there so many people coming to our classroom after class?"
Huang Cheng was doing his math homework. He raised his head when he heard Ning Meng's question. When he saw the girl outside the classroom, he picked up a small mirror and fixed his hair. "Cousin Ning, do you think I look okay?"
"…"
In fact, Huang Cheng was quite good-looking. He was considered a delicate and pretty boy among the high school students. It was a pity that there was a top-notch handsome guy like Huo Beichen in the class, so he was not eye-catching.
Hearing his question, Ning Meng patted his shoulder. "Did you know? There are at least hundreds of thousands of people in this world who think that you are handsome. "
Hearing this, Huang Cheng's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Ning Meng nodded. "That's because even if 99% of the people say that you're ugly, that 1% is still a few hundred thousand!"
Huang Cheng:??
Ning Meng winked at him. "Did you suddenly swell up?"
Huang Cheng: …
Su Ye laughed out loud and shouted, "Cousin, why do you sound so funny?"
Ning Meng sighed. "China's culture is vast and profound. You guys should learn more about it."
Su Ye asked, "For example?"
Ning Meng looked at him and grinned. "For example, can you not leave? This sentence is usually used by couples to ask each other to stay, but in a different setting, it definitely has a different meaning. "
Huang Cheng asked curiously, "What kind of setting?"
Ning Meng: "What if the teacher says this to you when you're taking an 800-meter test?"
Huang Cheng: "…"
Su Ye: "…"
Huang Cheng suddenly felt that all the language he had learned in the past was wasted!
After saying this, Ning Meng leisurely sat down at her seat.
It was Friday today, and everyone had gone home after class. Tomorrow, Ning Meng had promised Huang Cheng and Huo Beichen to go to his house for dinner.
So, after school, Ning Meng told Ning Ke about it.
Ning Ke waved her hand. "No problem. I … I'll just cook something for myself tomorrow."
Ning Meng nodded.
After the three of them had dinner, Ning Meng was supposed to follow Huo Beichen to the study room to teach and supervise him. However, she remembered Teacher Liu's words and threw the notebook to Huo Beichen. "You go to the study room. I'll go check on Ning Ke."
Huo Beichen was not satisfied. "What's so good about her?"
Ning Meng explained, "She's new here, and her father just got into trouble. We have to take care of her."
Huo Beichen was speechless.
He clenched his jaw and did not say anything. He just nodded casually.
Ning Meng did not hesitate and walked out of the study room. She did not come back to see him until the night fell.
Huo Beichen stayed in the study room alone, feeling strangely empty.
It had only been a month, but he had already gotten used to Ning Meng's presence.
As he thought about this, he pricked up his ears and heard the soft laughter of two women coming from outside. Their laughter was definitely not soft, but it was separated by two doors, so it was a little muffled when it came to him.
Huo Beichen lowered his head and wanted to do some homework.
However, he could not help but pricked up his ears.
Ten minutes later, he felt like drinking some water. He stood up and opened the door to the study room. After pouring a glass of water, he came back up and leaned against the wall.
Ning Ke's room was a very small guest room on the second floor. Now, he could hear the sound of laughter coming from inside. He could vaguely hear the voices of two women.
Ning Meng asked, "Come, let me ask you another question. If your future boyfriend fell into a cesspool and needed to be rescued, what would you do?"
Ning Ke replied, "What would I do?"
Ning Meng replied, "Of course not! This kind of person would even fall into a cesspool. He might as well die! "
Ning Ke laughed. "… Hahahaha! Sis, when you were in high school, did you choose Arts or Science? "
Ning Meng replied, "Science!"
Ning Ke asked, "You're so good at talking. Why didn't you choose Arts?"
Ning Meng sighed. "Because history is a big problem. Do you know? Before we were divided into subjects, I always felt a sense of responsibility whenever I took a history exam. "
"Why?"
"Because I'm going to change history."
"Hahahahaha!"
"…"
When Huo Beichen came back to his senses, he realized that he was standing in front of Ning Ke's room. He had unknowingly finished the water in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.
When he realized what he was doing, Huo Beichen stood up straight.
He felt that he had lost his memory. He had clearly gone downstairs to pour a glass of water. How did he suddenly run here and laugh like an idiot?
At this moment, Ning Meng's voice could be heard. "You study first. I'll go see if Huo Beichen is studying."
