âHow was the movie? Share it with Mom!â Mother Chen didnât mean anything else but was merely finding a topic.
âAh?â Chen Mengyan didnât imagine that her mother would ask this. âI⊠I was sleeping at that time. I didnât pay much attentionâŠâ
Oh ya! Mother Chen suddenly figured out something. It must have been during the movie. My daughter and the guy did something. With this thought, Mother Chen sighed a little. My daughter has grown up and she doesnât tell me everything anymore.
âHehe, letâs eat before the food is cold.â Mother Chen noticed that her daughterâs appetite wasnât quite well and she started digging in the noodles.
The mother and daughter finished their meal and returned home. Mother Chen switched on the water heater and prepared for her bath. âYanyan, bathe with mother!â
âAh? Why bathe together?â Chen Mengyan asked.
âPlease help me to rub my back!â Mother Chen asked.
âOh, alrightâŠâ Chen Mengyan couldnât help but strip and follow her mom into the bathroom.
After careful observation, Mother Chen was finally at ease. Her daughter didnât lose her virginity. Probably, both of the kids were just having some âromanticâ game but the line was not crossed.
With these thoughts in mind, Mother Chen was relieved a little. It seemed that her daughter had proper limits.
At night, Mother Chen told her husband about her daughterâs jacket being stained by âthatâ.
âAre you saying that Mengyan alreadyâŠâ Father Chen frowned a little.
âNot yet. I bathed with her intentionally and checked. Yanyan is still a virgin.â Mother Chen replied.
âWhat do you plan to do?â Father Chen wasnât too boiled up. Most probably it was due to his field of work that he saw cases of underage sex. Moreover, his daughter had already reached adulthood!
âWhat can be done? Yanyan didnât talk about it and I canât possibly force her to spit it out.â Mother Chen said helplessly.
âEn, let the case go and donât mention it in the future. After the National Higher Education Entrance Examination has ended, I will speak to her!â Father Chen said.
âIt seems thatâs the only way!â Mother Chen sighed. âShould I supplement my daughter with knowledge in regards to this? If something happened, it will be the girlâs loss!â
Mother Chen had no other means to handle it. The kids nowadays matured too fast. One of her colleagueâs son was in Grade 10 and he had already brought his girlfriend for an abortion. After seeing multiple cases, it was no longer that much of a taboo.
âThereâs no need for it, I guess? Yanyan should have proper limits.â Father Chen thought secretly, How about I give a lecture to her boyfriend? This brat is absurd. I need to find an opportunity to give him a warning!
The person involved, our number one belle, Chen Mengyan, couldnât sleep that night. Or maybe, she had slept for a while but was now awake on her bed thinking about what happened with Yang Ming that afternoon. Before that, Chen Mengyan would never have expected herself to do something like this for a guy! Have I fallen apart?
When Chen Mengyan recalled how her mom spoke between the lines, she felt annoyed! Yang Ming, ah, Yang Ming, why are you so bad? Why do you exist in my life?
Although Chen Mengyan thought like this, she was excited in her heart. During that moment, Yang Ming said he loved me. Is that his genuine thought? In the blink of an eye, the sky outside of the window had soon become brighter. Chen Mengyan finally went to sleep with her conflicted thoughts.
The other person involved, Yang Ming, was having his best sleep ever. In his dream, Chen Mengyan became his girlfriend. They hugged each other and went for a stroll at the seasideâŠ
The movie was the seasoning for Grade 12. After such a brief rest, the hustling academic life returned. Monthly exams, joint examination, area examination and district examination together were like a huge mountain squashing them.
Yang Ming continued to utilize his x-ray vision and telescopic vision to cheat. However, he was more reserved these few times around. He didnât cheat too much but merely kept himself as the second of the class, which was still among the top ten positions in the year. Coincidentally, his ranking was just behind Chen Mengyan.
âYang Ming, why do I feel like you did it intentionally?â One or two occasions could be coincidence, but this happened every time. She was always the first and Yang Ming was at the second. Therefore, Chen Mengyan found it suspicious.
âHow can it be possible? It may be easier to target for first place but have you seen someone hitting second place every single time as though they aimed for it? Moreover, my score was just a few marks below you, how can I be so accurate?â Yang Ming laughed.
After a few thoughts, Chen Mengyan agreed as well. It was not possible for Yang Ming to guess her grade beforehand. How would it be possible to achieve such accuracy, maybe it was Godâs will? Girls tended to think about stuff romantically.
In their relationship, except for the âextraordinaryâ breakthrough, there wasnât any intimate conduct anymore. It wasnât that Yang Ming had no desire for it, but rather that Chen Mengyan didnât give him the opportunity!
At some point in the past, Yang Ming hinted to Chen Mengyan during their conversations â an invitation to his house or to go watch a movie together. Chen Mengyan firmly rejected it. Some of Yang Mingâs little tricks, for example, to touch Chen Mengyanâs chest werenât successful. Overall, Chen Mengyan didnât give him any opportunities.
While the others were nervous, Yang Ming was quite relaxed. He didnât need to study but he could still get a good grade. Aside from Yang Ming, there was no one else behaving like that. Yang Ming was still surfing the net every day. Occasionally, he chatted with âIâm a Superstarâ and played Versus the Landlords with âWild Female Teacherâ.
In the blink of an eye, it was the legendary black June!
Even though the countryâs education policy was revised multiple times, the ratio of the number of universities to the gross number of students was still inadequate.
Aside from those who had a unique contribution to the country, the majority were required to cross the bridge of the National Higher Education Entrance Examination.
One week before the National Higher Education Entrance Examination, the school allowed the examinees to take a break. Today was the last day of school!
Each subject teacher had stopped teaching and they shared their experiences on the examination and things to look out for.
âStudents, today is the last day of your high school! Soon after, you will step into the most important exam hall of your life. Without further ado, thereâs only one thing I want to share, that is to keep calm and donât be nervous. Take all of what you learned and thoroughly regurgitate it on your exam paper! Donât leave any empty blanks and write down anything you know. If you donât know, you still need to try something on it. Even though it is not good advice for a teacher to ask her students to make a wild guess on the answer, I still need to ask all of you to do it because that is best for your grade! Alright, you need to be confident. You can do it; you definitely will do it. Teacher will cheer for all of you!â Teacher Li left a final touch and said, âAt last, I pray each and every one of you to have a breakthrough! Continue your breakthrough!â
Initially, the ambiance of the classroom was quite tense. After the final sentence from Teacher Li, all of the students undoubtedly burst into laughter. Unexpectedly, the teacher knew the buzzword!
Among the studentsâ laughter, there was a certain someone laughing mischievously. That person was Wang Zhitao. Before the National Higher Education Entrance Examination, he finally acted!
âChen Mengyan, thereâs something I need to let you know.â Wang Zhitao came in front of Cheng Mengyanâs desk, âCan you come with me to the walkway?â
âWhat? If you have anything to say, why canât you speak here?â Obviously, Chen Mengyan didnât want to leave the classroom with him alone.
âIt is important. Itâs about Yang Ming!â Wang Zhitao explained.
âAlright!â Chen Mengyan hesitated a while before standing up and leaving with Wang Zhitao.
Damn! Motherf*****. Once you find out it was about Yang Ming, then you obediently follow! Wang Zhitao felt resentful. However, Yang Ming would soon be ostracized.
âWang Zhitao, what matter do you have with me?â Chen Mengyan said coldly.
âMengyan, your relationship with Yang Ming wasnât bad right?â Wang Zhitao said in a sly manner.
âDonât call me Mengyan. It is none of your business about my relationship with Yang Ming.â Chen Mengyan was irritated with how Wang Zhitao addressed her.
âI have a stack of photos here. After you see them, you will know what sort of person Yang Ming is! You should leave him afterward!â Wang Zhitao handed a bag of stuff to Chen Mengyan.
âWhat do you mean? What is this?â Chen Mengyan didnât extend her hand.
âYou will know once you see it. Do you want to let everyone know about this?â Wang Zhitao smirked a little.
Chen Mengyang glimpsed at Wang Zhitao for a while before accepting the stuff in his hand. Once she opened it, she was surprised. âIsnât this⊠Yang Ming?â
âWhat do you say? You should be able to recognize a fellow student, right?â Wang Zhitao laughed mischievously.
âHow did you get these photos?â Chen Mengyan frowned a little. Before concerning herself with Yang Ming, she was suspicious of Wang Zhitaoâs intention.
âIt was a coincidence. I got it from the editor of a website. That day during the police spot check, a few prostitution clients were captured at Tavern Heaven On Earth. The editor took a few photos with a digital camera to expose this on a website!â Wang Zhitao explained, âOur house is one of the shareholders of Tavern Heaven On Earth. You know that once this is exposed, it will affect our business. The others will think our place is not safe anymore with the frequent spot checks we have. Who would dare come anymore? Hence, the hotel decided to pay the editor to retract those photos.â
