Chapter 56 Let’s Say Goodbye Properly
At Xu Cheng's home.
Lin Wanzhou was lying on Xu Cheng's bed reading a book, her fair and slender legs bent, her little feet wrapped in white short cotton socks dangling in the air.
As the body matures, the chubby little feet in kindergarten have become cute and exquisite, with slender and upturned soles, moderate fatness and thinness, slightly raised arches, smooth and delicate white ankles, a few wrinkles at the edges of the socks, and a faint flesh color...
Even though Xu Cheng was not a foot fetishist, his eyes always drifted towards that direction uncontrollably.
This foot... it's a pity not to use it to sew...
"Cough cough." Seeing Lin Wanzhou turning around, Xu Cheng couldn't help but cough twice guiltily and spoke first.
"Lin Wanzhou, what do you want to do... You even specially called Yu Yu here, but Yu Yu has been busy reviewing recently..."
In the past two years, Xu Cheng had almost always assigned the task of maintaining the 16 websites to Yu Yu, which saved him a lot of energy to do other things. However, as the midterm exam was approaching, Xu Cheng asked her to concentrate on reviewing at home without being distracted by other things.
Lin Wanzhou stretched lazily, "Don't worry, I'll talk to her when she comes. The three of us are the best partners..."
"We are the only two people you can use at your will."
"whee."
Lin Wanzhou rolled around on the bed with a smile on her face.
"Emmmm...Xu Cheng, your bed smells so good, just like a little girl's bed. It smells so good."
Lin Wanzhou couldn't help but hold Xu Cheng's quilt and sniff it. If she had to describe it, the laundry detergent was soaked with sunshine and was as fresh as daisies in March.
"It's just a simple smell of laundry detergent. I wash my sheets quite frequently, so it smells nice..."
"Fortunately, Xu Cheng, you have always loved cleanliness since you were a child, otherwise we would never be able to play together."
Boom boom boom.
"That's Yu Yu!" Lin Wanzhou jumped up from the bed, her little feet reaching around in the air looking for her slippers.
Xu Cheng raised his foot and kicked the slippers under her feet. Lin Wanzhou put them on hurriedly and ran to the door.
She looked at the doorway first, but did not open the door immediately, but asked mischievously.
"Please enter the door code. Hint: Who is the cutest?"
After a long time, a subtle and nervous voice came from outside the door, "You, you are the cutest..."
"Beep, the password is correct."
Xu Cheng wiped his forehead helplessly, "Lin Wanzhou, why are you as boring as a child? The children in Uncle Liu would say you are childish when they see you."
"Hmph, you are the only one who is mature... You are just a child yourself, yet you always lecture others in an air of being connoisseurs..." Lin Wanzhou pouted.
The girl outside the door said softly, "Don't quarrel... It's okay..."
"We didn't quarrel. Come in quickly, Yu Yu. Why are you wearing this black T-shirt again? Why aren't you wearing the skirt we bought together last time?"
Lin Wanzhou pulled Yu Yu into the door, and Xu Cheng leaned against the door and looked at her.
With Lin Wanzhou's encouragement, Yu Yu no longer wore the baggy old school uniform every day, but he didn't become very fashionable either. He just wore an ordinary black T-shirt.
Compared to two years ago, she has grown a lot taller and has a more slender figure, and her beautiful peach blossom eyes look even more affectionate.
Yu Yu looked at Lin Wanzhou apologetically while changing his shoes, "I'm sorry, Lin Wanzhou, I want to keep that dress until next year..."
Two years have passed, and Yu Yu's personality has not changed much. He is still socially anxious, but because he has become familiar with Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou, he can still communicate normally in front of them.
Xu Cheng has never forgotten the irreparable tragedy of his previous life. In the past two years, he has made a lot of efforts, such as suggesting that his parents adopt Yu Yu as their goddaughter...
He Ying was indeed very interested in this idea and even asked Yu Yu several times, but Yu Yu did not agree.
In addition, Xu Cheng has always been concerned about the health of Yu Yu's grandmother, often sending her some fruit supplements and the like, and occasionally making up the excuse that the community provides physical examination coupons to take her for a physical examination. Thanks to his efforts and intervention, his grandmother is now in very good health.
Perhaps that tragedy had been resolved by him invisibly, Xu Cheng sometimes thought so.
Three children gathered around the coffee table.
Xu Cheng poured each of them a glass of orange juice. "Lin Wanzhou, now you can finally tell me what your plans are. Everyone has taken some time out from their review time."
Lin Wanzhou clasped his hands together happily, "Thank you Xu Chengcheng and Xiaoyu. Actually, I was thinking that we should record a video for Teacher Zhu. If Teacher Zhu misses us in the future, we can take it out and watch it."
Xiaoyu is Yu Yu's nickname. After Lin Wanzhou heard it from Yu Yu's grandmother, it became her nickname for Yu Yu.
"Taking a video?"
Xu Cheng didn't expect that Lin Wanzhou could come up with such a trendy idea.
"Have you decided what to shoot?" he asked calmly.
"I want to sing a song, dance or something... In the movie I watched today, I felt so moved when the teacher taught the children to sing. I also want to sing a song for Teacher Zhu."
"So do you have a plan for what to sing?"
“Ahem.” Lin Wanzhou cleared his throat and glanced at the two of them embarrassedly, “Don’t laugh at me!”
Yu Yu shook his head honestly, and Xu Cheng couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, we have all been strictly trained, and we won't laugh no matter how funny it is."
Lin Wanzhou sat upright on the sofa, clapping her hands gently to keep the rhythm for herself, with her mouth slightly open.
"Summer, summer passes quietly, leaving behind little secrets"
"I can't tell you what's in my heart"
"The evening breeze warms my heart and I think of you again"
"How sweet, how sweet, how can I forget..."
Lin Wanzhou swayed slightly as she sang. Her voice was nice, clear and pleasant, but her technique was far from perfect. She was always out of tune, and the song she chose was not very suitable.
But Lin Wanzhou was very immersed in it, and she learned the dance steps from somewhere, and she stood up and started dancing cutely.
Fold your hands in front of your chest and cross your legs, walk in place waving your hands left and right, put your hands together and swim like a fish, stick out your butt and wave your hands left and right, pinch your waist with one hand and look around, jump lightly and raise your thumb.
"How's it going?"
Lin Wanzhou patted his chest and asked the two audience members next to him for their comments.
"Very, very good..."
Yu Yu didn't understand, maybe she had never heard of this song before. Xu Cheng's evaluation was very objective.
"Hmm... the dance is quite cute."
Although the steps are clumsy and the movements are at the level of radio gymnastics, they unexpectedly look super cute on children.
"But this song isn't quite suitable... How about this... I'll teach you a song."
"Great, great." Lin Wanzhou clapped his hands vigorously.
Yu Yu also looked at Xu Cheng curiously.
Xu Cheng took the guitar off the wall of his bedroom. Over the past two years, his guitar skills had increased a lot. Although he was not very proficient in it, he could still play a complete song without any problem.
In fact, when Lin Wanzhou proposed this idea, he thought this song was quite suitable.
Moreover, Xu Cheng seriously believes that Teacher Zhu is a good teacher who is both a mentor and a friend. She will not favor a student just because the parents give her more gifts, nor will she give up on a student just because the student does not study well.
Perhaps because he is mentally mature enough, he can better appreciate how deep the affection Teacher Zhu has instilled in his students.
"Then let's say goodbye properly."
Sit down on the chair, slung the guitar over your shoulder, and lightly stroke the strings with your fingers.
The plain melody is like a warm river, flowing slowly and soothing the scars of time.
