Ning Meng could smell his familiar, youthful scent. It carried the unique coolness of a young man, and it surrounded her nostrils.
He seemed to be a little shorter than he would be eight years later, but his aura did not diminish at all. He pressed his hands against the wall behind him and slowly lowered his head.
Ning Meng held her breath.
What was he trying to do?
Could it be …
Eight years later, they were already in bed. Logically speaking, a kiss was nothing, but her heart was beating so fast.
The street they were on was the main street, and there were many people and hawkers along the street. However, there was no one in this small alley. They had probably just finished lunch and were taking a break.
The hawkers' voices could be heard. It was noisy, but it made the alley seem very quiet.
Ning Meng could hear the thumping of her chest against her chest.
Ahhhhh!
Can you not be so nervous? This is his first kiss, not hers! Can you not be so useless?! What's wrong with you?
Just as she was thinking about this, she saw the man's face pressing down even harder.
Ning Meng quickly closed her eyes.
She felt as if all the air in her chest had been sucked out, and she was so nervous that she was about to suffocate.
She could even feel his breath on her face. Just when she thought that his soft lips were about to touch her, he suddenly moved closer to her ear. "Why did you close your eyes?"
"???"
She opened her eyes and saw the man's firm chin. It was so handsome, but his words were annoying. "What are you thinking about?"
"!!!"
She gulped. "Nothing!"
"Then why are you blushing?"
The man was not going to let her go, and this made Ning Meng even angrier. "You said that I'm your girlfriend!"
"Oh."
The man faintly replied with a smile on his face. He looked down. "You said it yourself."
Ning Meng retorted, "When did I say that?"
Huo Beichen leaned closer to her. "Are you getting old? Is your memory getting worse?"
"???"
F * ck!
He was calling her old!
Although she was older than him by three years!
But!
Eight years later, he was forcing her to call him brother!
Ning Meng said angrily, "That's right! You know that I'm getting old. You should remember to call me sister!"
"Hmm, old man, let me help you recall. The first time we met, you were the one who swore that you would be able to catch up with me, so you said you were my future girlfriend … "
"…"
She subconsciously retorted, "I wasn't chasing you."
"Then what are you doing?"
"…"
She paused. "I've never been here before."
Huo Beichen sneered. "Really?"
It was obvious that she didn't believe him.
Ning Meng sighed.
If this didn't happen to her and someone told her that it came from the future, she definitely wouldn't believe it either …
She pushed Huo Beichen away. "Go away! Go home and finish your homework!"
After being pushed by her, Huo Beichen straightened his body and walked ahead of her. "Okay, let's go home, girlfriend."
"…"
Why was Lord Chen so mischievous eight years ago?
When the two of them returned home, they saw that the entire villa looked brand new, as if it had been cleaned. Ning Ke was still wearing old clothes and was cleaning the windows.
Ning Meng was baffled. "Keke, is your house very dirty? Why do you need to clean it? "
Ning Ke looked at them, trying to please them. "I … I have nothing to do, so I want to clean it. Sis, is that okay?"
She was very meticulous in cleaning.
Ning Meng didn't mind. She was a little thirsty, so she walked to the fridge and opened the door. She saw the yogurt inside and wanted to drink it, but she thought of the other two people and took two more bottles.
She threw one bottle to Huo Beichen and walked to Ning Ke. "Keke, have some yogurt!"
Ning Ke looked at the yogurt and gulped. "Sis, I don't want to drink yogurt."
"Why?"
Ning Meng felt strange.
"I … I don't like yogurt."
Ning Meng didn't think much of it. She turned around and wanted to put the yogurt back into the fridge. When she opened the fridge, she saw that none of the food had been touched.
She asked curiously, "Did you not eat?"
"Yes, I did. I cooked noodles!"
Ning Meng stared at the meat and eggs. "No meat and eggs?"
Ning Ke said nothing.
Ning Meng finally realized that something was wrong.
She took the yogurt and walked to Ning Ke. "Come with me for a while."
Ning Ke followed behind her uneasily. Both of them entered Ning Ke's room and Ning Meng placed the yogurt in front of her. "Keke, are you feeling uneasy? “
Ning Ke kept quiet and lowered her head.
Ning Meng sighed. "Keke, I hope you can understand that the food you eat every day is not worth much. Since I said that I'll take care of you, I'll definitely be able to afford it. Don't worry, I'll pay for your university fees. However, I'll only pay for the first year. After you're in university, you'll have to work and earn your own money. Is that okay?"
Ning Ke nodded.
This was just right.
Ning Meng smiled. "Also, I'll record down your food and drinks. When you're able to work and have the ability, you can pay me back. Is that okay?"
Ning Ke let out a sigh of relief. "Sis, I'll pay you double. No, triple. Quadruple …"
"Good. Good girl."
Ning Meng patted her head. "In that case, you don't have to clean the house anymore. Study hard and get into a good university. Then, you'll pay me quadruple!"
Ning Ke nodded.
Ning Meng then walked out of the room.
Ning Ke looked at the yogurt on the table. Her eyes were teary and her heart was pounding.
She took a deep breath and went downstairs to pour herself a glass of water. However, just as she was about to step out of the room, she overheard the conversation between Ning Meng and Huo Beichen.
Both of them were speaking in a very low voice. If she had not come out, she would not have heard it.
Huo Beichen asked, "Do you only care about money? Why do you want quadruple? "
Ning Meng replied, "I'm just saying. Didn't you see that Keke doesn't even dare to eat meat and eggs? She's relieved now that I've said that. You're in your third year of high school. You guys have to study hard. You have to keep up with your nutrition. I've thought about it. From now on, I'll have meat every night. I can't just eat tomato and egg noodles anymore. "
Huo Beichen replied, "… If I didn't know better, I would have thought that she's your sister."
Ning Meng sighed. "She's like an orphan now. I'm also an orphan. We're like sisters. I'm happy to pick up a family member for free. What's wrong with that? "
Ning Ke's eyes turned red when she heard this. She did not listen anymore and quickly went back to her bedroom.
'Sister … You'll always be my sister.'
The days passed by. It was almost the New Year. Another mock exam was coming!
A few days before the exam, the atmosphere in the class was very heavy.
However, at this time, an uninvited guest came to visit.
After class, Ning Meng heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door. "Where's Huo Beichen? Heh, let me tell you guys. He has a bad life. He's destined to be alone for the rest of his life. Who in your class got into a car accident? Why did it have to be his parents? It's all his fault! "
"How can someone like him still have the face to live? Oh my, if I were him, I'd be so guilty!"
"Also, do you guys know what his parents were doing when they got into the car accident?"
"If it wasn't for him, his parents would not have gotten into this accident!"
