Chapter 243 - 243 Gathering
243 Gathering
After bringing these classmates back to her home in Jinghu district, the originally quiet house instantly became lively. She wanted to invite the couple next door to have the meal together. After all, their son was also her classmate. However, there was no response after she shouted a few times at their door.
Chu Ning then knew that the family was not at home, and must have gone out as they had something on.
In the courtyard in front of the house, the classmates did not have any restraints. The male and female students had a clear division of labor. They packed the ingredients and set up the barbecue grill and other tools. The lively scene was presented before Chu Ning.
Xu Xi was also paying attention to Chu Ning. Seeing the dazzling smile on her face, he smiled as well.
As long as Chu Ning was happy, he was contented.
“That person should be your final destination.” Xu Xi glanced at the busy Yan Shen, who was a short distance away. He had to admit that he was really handsome and outstanding.
Yan Shen had become more cheerful and quick to smile. “Maybe only two outstanding people will have an outcome.” Xu Xi thought to himself.
“What are you thinking about?” Seeing Xu Xi’s absent-minded look, Chu Ning walked to his side and patted his shoulder.
The two of them were so close that Xu Xi could even smell the faint fragrance from Chu Ning’s body. Chu Ning liked to use a certain brand of shampoo, so Xu Xi was very familiar with the smell.
“Er… It’s nothing.” Xu Xi turned his head away subconsciously. His face was already flushed. Every time he got close to Chu Ning, he would blush and his heart would beat faster.
“Sigh, why are you still so shy? Come, come with me, let’s work together. Look, the other students are already busying themselves.”
Chu Ning did not think much of it. She assumed Xu Xi was simply shy, so she put her arm around his shoulder.
This bespectacled, quiet boy was always somewhat shy. This was Chu Ning’s impression of Xu Xi. Chu Ning’s action made Xu Xi’s face turn even redder. He quickly glanced at the fair and slender hand on his shoulder.
Chu Ning, who had been so heart-achingly beautiful at the Dragon Boat Festival Gala, was now standing so close to him.
Xu Xi felt like his heart was about to jump from his chest.
Chu Ning quickly joined the group of female students. They set up the tables and prepared to sort out the vegetables, meat, and so on. Some of the male students were doing the work of moving things.
During this period, Chu Ning and Yan Shen also worked together. In the eyes of the students who were close to Chu Ning, only when Chu Ning and Yan Shen stood together did they look like a perfect match.
Luo Yu sighed internally.
She could only bury her love for Yan Shen deeper in her heart. She knew that her love for Yan Shen was destined to be a fruitless wait.
Yan Shen’s usual coldness faded and he even joked with Chu Ning.
“President Chu, I didn’t expect you to have two houses. Did you not want me to send you back because you didn’t want me to know that you have this secret base?” Yan Shen asked with a smile.
Chu Ning gave him a strange look.
“It’s not that i want to hide it from you. I just feel that there’s no need for you to follow me and waste your time. I feel uncomfortable. Also, you have to have a good relationship with your family. Your sister is truly good to you.” Chu Ning said with emotion.
“Stop.” Yan Shen quickly waved his hand and continued, “I know.”
Chu Ning smiled and pinched Yan Shen’s arm.
“Sigh, it looks like you’ve recovered quite well. You’re quite a strong Master Yan.” Chu Ning felt that Yan Shen’s physical fitness was very strong, which didn’t match his handsome appearance.
“It can’t be compared to Master Chu’s two bricks. Your moves were the real deal.” Yan Shen replied.
At this time, Luo Yu also laughed and said, “Sigh, you two are both experts, okay? I’m the only useless one. I just stood there and couldn’t do anything. I could only watch the two of you exert yourselves.”
As soon as Luo Yu’s finished speaking, the three of them looked at each other and laughed out loud.
It was already afternoon by the time the meal ended. The weather was clear and the weather was just right, with the sun shining down on every corner of the courtyard. The faces of the students who were in their prime were shining.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Chu Ning suddenly thought that everyone could go out and have fun in the afternoon.
“Does anyone have anything on in the afternoon? If you do, you can go back first. If you don’t, we can go to the nearby amusement park.”
