Big Shot's Reincarnation Sweeps the World Chapter 717 - Suffocating

Chapter 717: Suffocating

“Yuxi, have you brought any friends home to play recently?” She did not have to beat about the bush when talking to Sheng Yuxi. There was no need for her to do so. Even if she were to tell him directly, he might not be able to think of anything. He was the type to answer every question he was asked.
Sheng Yuxi’s hand that was holding the potato chips paused for a moment. Then, he turned his head and widened his clear eyes. He looked a little embarrassed. “Mom, how did you know?”
Kang Weizhen did not miss a single trace of expression on his face. The more she looked at him, the more anxious she became.
Now that the child had grown up, she could no longer control him.
Although she was an open-minded mother, she still could not accept it.
Just as Kang Weizhen and Sheng Yuxi were staring at each other… “Aunt.”
“Ah, Sheng An is here.” Kang Weizhen could finally breathe easily. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to face her son anymore.
It had been a while since they last saw each other. Sheng An had been gradually losing weight. Indeed, no one in the Sheng family looked bad. Sheng An seemed to have transformed into a new person.
In the past, he used to be stubborn and mischievous. But now, he had grown into a handsome and tall young man. His back was straight and it did not seem he was doing it intentionally. It was as if he had made it into a habit and looked natural.
He had a goal now. He said that he would join the military in the future and get into National Defense Technology University.
Because he had hope and motivation, he was shining.
In the past, most girls in class hated him, but now, many girls had a crush on them.
“Yes. I came to look for my cousin.”
“Mhm, you can go upstairs. She’s reading upstairs.” Kang Weizhen was no longer on guard against Sheng An, so she let him go upstairs. As expected, Sheng Yang was in her room, engrossed in her book. However, when there was a knock on the door, she looked over sharply. When she saw that it was Sheng An, her raised brows relaxed.
Compared to Sheng An’s eagerness, Sheng Yang only nodded slightly and continued reading her book.
Sheng An flipped through the books in her room. His cousin had many books here, and she had chosen them well. However, his mind was not on the books today, so he was very inefficient.
Sheng Yang noticed it and frowned. She took the book from him. “Don’t ruin my book.”
“…” Sheng An collapsed on the tatami mat, laughing at her words. “Cousin, shouldn’t you be concerned about me? You should ask me what’s making me unhappy, but all you can think of is your book? You’re even telling me not to ruin it?”
“Yeah.”
“Books are inanimate objects, but I’m a living person.”
Sheng Yang glanced at him. “This book is much more complex than you, and it’s harder to understand than you. Whereas you… I can understand you with one look.”
“…” Sheng An was completely speechless. After a while, he covered his head. “I don’t know what I’m troubled about either. I’ve long treated it as though I didn’t have a biological sister. So, what’s there for me to worry about?”
Sheng Yang sighed. “I shouldn’t interfere with your family matters, but since I’ve given you some test papers and books, I’ll talk to you.”
“…” She was using this suffocating excuse again.
Sheng Yang suddenly looked deeply at Sheng An. “Don’t do anything you regret.”
That one sentence stunned Sheng An. Soon after, as if he was enlightened, the question that had been troubling him for a long time suddenly dissipated.
Sometimes, complicated things were hidden in simple principles.
