The scene shifted, and Jiang Junyi stood expressionless at the study door, holding a pile of things, while Wan Qingyun covered her mouth and chuckled.
"So that's how it is. My elders were so enthusiastic; they insisted I bring these things for you." Jiang Junyi placed the items aside.
They included, but were not limited to, barbecue, steamed buns, roast duck, egg pancakes, clothes, handicrafts, and so on.
"It's fine, I like them all," Wan Qingyun said with a smile.
Of course, what she liked even more was Jiang Junyi's return.
Jiang Junyi sat down beside Wan Qingyun, looking helpless, "How can we possibly finish so much stuff?"
"I'll eat them, and Xiao Xiao is here too," Wan Qingyun said softly.
"You two must be tired," Jiang Junyi said, holding her soft, delicate hands and glancing at Wan Qingyun, whose cheeks were slightly flushed.
"So, are things handled?"
"Yes, faster than I expected, so I immediately flew back! I couldn't waste a single moment of time with you," Jiang Junyi said, grinning.
"That..."
"What is it?"
"Could you... let go of my hand? It's sweating..." Wan Qingyun said quietly, lowering her head.
Jiang Junyi glanced at her, quickly let go, and coughed twice, "Cough, cough, it's all your fault."
Wan Qingyun was slightly stunned, "My fault for what?"
"For being so beautiful~ Baobei~"
Here it came, Jiang Junyi's occasional deep, bubbly voice, directly melting into her heart.
"Go away!"
Wan Qingyun slapped Jiang Junyi's hand. If she weren't blind, she would have shown him what an eye-roll looked like!
"I need to deal with some things."
Jiang Junyi nodded, then leaned over the desk, facing Wan Qingyun, gazing at her exquisite and beautiful face, occasionally smacking his lips as if savoring something.
Wan Qingyun naturally heard Jiang Junyi's actions beside her, but she couldn't do anything about it, and besides, she didn't dislike such an atmosphere.
Time slowly passed, and Wan Qingyun suddenly noticed a subtle, rhythmic breathing sound coming from beside her.
She softly called out, "Junyi?"
No response.
"Is he asleep?"
Wan Qingyun put down the documents in her hand and also leaned over the desk, face to face with Jiang Junyi.
The soft sunlight streamed gently through the window, falling upon them both, and an endless warmth rose in Wan Qingyun's heart.
At this moment, she yearned to be able to see.
What did a sleeping Jiang Junyi look like? Was he playful, a little mischievous, yet endearing?
Wan Qingyun instinctively reached out and touched Jiang Junyi's cheek.
All intimate human behaviors are driven by emotion.
It's just that different relationships are driven by different emotions.
Right now, it was the emotion called "love" that prompted Wan Qingyun to make such a gesture.
"Hmm..." Jiang Junyi felt the movement on his cheek and slowly opened his eyes.
Before him was a face as beautiful as a painting.
"Wow... Have I come to the heavens?... I think I see a fairy."
"Pfft..."
Wan Qingyun couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.
Who would have thought that this guy would open his eyes with a mouth full of sweet talk?
However, she didn't withdraw her hand; instead, she gave his cheek a little squeeze, "Are you made of sweet talk? Does it just come out?"
Jiang Junyi smiled, enjoying the smooth, soft sensation on his face, "Before I met you, I didn't know I could say so many sweet things."
He moved his head forward, getting a little closer to Wan Qingyun.
Both of them could now clearly feel each other's warm breath.
"Why are you getting so close?" Wan Qingyun felt it.
"I want to take a closer look at my Wan Qingyun's baby's unparalleled beauty."
"Smooth talker."
"Then you taste it~~"
"Go, go, go!"
In the end, it was the thin-skinned Wan Qingyun who lost!
Wan Qingyun sat up, "Look at the time, don't forget Xiao Xiao's parent-teacher conference."
Jiang Junyi lazily sat up and stretched, "Got it."
He checked the time; it was about right.
"Looks like it's almost time, I'm heading out."
"Mm."
...
Meanwhile, Wan Xiaoxiao, who was in class, had long lost her focus on the teacher and kept glancing out of the classroom.
By now, many parents had already arrived early and were looking for their children through the classroom windows.
Wan Xiaoxiao's foot under the desk was constantly tapping the ground, and she muttered, "Damn Jiang Junyi, stinky Jiang Junyi... If you're late, I'll fight you!"
Previously, her deskmate was Xu Li, but Xu Li was already as good as dead.
The official explanation was a transfer.
So now, Wan Xiaoxiao had a different deskmate.
At this moment, Wan Xiaoxiao's deskmate tugged at her, "Xiao Xiao, the things parents need to sign later... could I trouble Uncle to help me?"
Wan Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at her timid deskmate, "No problem! Leave it to him! If he doesn't help, I'll beat him up!"
"Ah... thank you..."
At four o'clock, the Chinese teacher, knowing that a parent-teacher conference was next, allowed five minutes for parents to enter.
As soon as the door opened, various uncles and aunties poured in, found their children, and chatted cheerfully.
Wan Xiaoxiao, however, was craning her neck, but she didn't see that figure at the main entrance.
Her expression was a little anxious, and she mumbled, "Stinky Jiang Junyi! If you dare to be late, you're dead... Ouch!"
Wan Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a pain in her head and quickly covered it.
"Little brat, are you cursing me?" A familiar voice rang out.
Wan Xiaoxiao turned her head sheepishly, "Hehe, brother-in-law~"
Jiang Junyi rubbed Wan Xiaoxiao's head hard, "Move it."
"Oh, oh."
At first, both parents and students had to attend the meeting in the classroom. Parents sat on chairs, and students could sit in the aisle, using books as cushions under their bottoms.
After sitting down, Jiang Junyi looked at Su Shuang, his eyes flickering slightly, and a smile gradually formed on his lips.
What a coincidence.
He hadn't expected that Su Shuang was now Wan Xiaoxiao's deskmate!
"Hello, this girl is naturally mischievous, so I'm sure she's caused you a lot of trouble. Please bear with her," Jiang Junyi said gently, extending his hand.
A faint smile hung on his face.
Su Shuang listened to his words, which were as refreshing as a spring breeze, and was a little afraid to meet Jiang Junyi's eyes.
She also recognized him; this older brother was the one who had helped her out that day.
"No... it's fine... I'm the one who caused Xiao Xiao trouble..." Su Shuang said weakly, gently shaking Jiang Junyi's hand.
Jiang Junyi smiled and said nothing more.
"Hey, I didn't cause any trouble, alright?" Wan Xiaoxiao said discontentedly.
"With your personality, it would be strange if you didn't cause trouble," Jiang Junyi rolled his eyes.
"Hmph..."
Once most of the parents were seated, the homeroom teacher walked onto the podium.
"Dear parents..."
A standard opening, nothing much to say.
The most important part was the distribution of the monthly exam results, a method used to gain parents' attention and stir students' emotions.
Those with good grades would naturally be encouraged, and those with poor grades but a desire to improve might be motivated to work harder.
As for the seasoned slackers, nothing could be done about them.
It was a common tactic used by schools.
"Wang Fan, total monthly exam score 350, grade rank 100. Very good results, keep up the good work!"
A boy wearing glasses, who looked like a top student, walked onto the podium.
The parents below felt honored.
"Qian Duoduo, total monthly exam score 320, grade rank 240. The teacher has seen your progress, keep it up."
"Sun Nan, 290, grade rank 400. You need to work harder."
...
"Wan Xiaoxiao...".
