A CERTAIN SOMEONE ( THE ON1Y ONE )

Chapter 076 - Back to School

Shop’s Anniversary Celebration: May I Have a Human Pillow.

It happened to be already Monday by the time they were done with the formal competition, thus perfectly skipping past the monthly break. Sheng Mingyang initially arranged for Xiao-Chen to go fetch them from the bus stop, but Fuzhong ended up stealing his job instead.
The private vehicle was the exact same as the one from before, and so was the driver. Only, the person sitting in the shotgun went from Yang Jing to Big Mouth Xu.

Sheng Wang was initially a little relieved, thinking that taking the school’s car was better than Xiao-Chen’s — better than seeing Jiang Ou and Sheng Mingyang the moment they open the car door in any case.
Still, seeing Big Mouth Xu upon opening the door wasn’t something to rejoice about either; no student — yet to graduate, that is — would love to hang around with the administration dean, let alone students who once had their phones confiscated.

The moment Big Mouth Xu showed himself, Sheng Wang stuffed his phone back into his pocket.
“You aren’t even this obedient while you’re in school, you think I’ll bother confiscating your phone when you’re out?” Big Mouth Xu said, exasperated. “Checking in with your parents at home or just chit-chatting? Continue if you’re checking in, treat it like I didn’t say anything if you just want to chit-chat and play games.”

“My dad’s asking if our school’s car is arriving soon,” Sheng Wang answered.
“Then you definitely have to notify him, so that the parents wouldn’t worry. Our school is quite adept when it comes to this — we will only be early, never late. No matter what, we wouldn’t land the students in a situation where they are waiting at the bus stop with nobody fetching them.” Big Mouth Xu thus began seriously going into a spiel on how Fuzhong is responsible towards the treatment of its students. As Sheng Wang just kept replying with “Mn” noncommittally, he speedily replied Sheng Mingyang’s WeChat messages.

Encyclopedia for Healthy Living: The temperature has dropped quite drastically recently, your Auntie Jiang said that the quilts in your dormitory are a little too thin. Do you have time to go back to your dorm in the afternoon? We’ll make a trip to the school, and add more mattresses.

Shop’s Anniversary Celebration: it isn’t just the two of us in the dorms, we have dormmates too...you’ll scare them if you suddenly show up

Sheng Wang was busy typing with his head lowered when he suddenly heard Jiang Tian ask quietly, “Why are you frowning?”
“My dad.” As Sheng Wang spoke, he wanted to show Jiang Tian the contents of the chat, but just as he turned over he suddenly felt that it wasn’t quite appropriate.
Firstly, in this conversation, his intent in not letting Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou come to school was too obvious — he was scared that Jiang Tian would think that he was regretting everything.
Secondly, he also did not want to let Jiang Tian see Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou’s names either, worried that Jiang Tian would feel burdened and regretful.

Therefore his phone flashed before Jiang Tian’s eyes, and his phone was back to him again before the other person could catch a glimpse. His eyes were lowered as he grumbled, “My dad insisted that the temperature dropped, and was interrogating me about whether we wore long underpants.”

Afraid that Jiang Tian didn’t buy what he said, he went all the way to caress Jiang Tian’s thigh, whispering, “Lemme see if you wore it.”
“.......”
Jiang Tian avoided him, and removed that paw of his. Sheng Wang relentlessly tried to get around him, but Jiang Tian grabbed his wrist instead.

Big Mouth Xu — who was prattling non-stop in front — finally quieted and turned around.
The two instantly let go, Sheng Wang even moved slightly to the side, and made a clear divide between them in much contriteness as he leaned against the car window.
