  After dinner, Mei Dai and Luo Qianqian, who was pretending to be Tang Sheng's "cousin", went to Tang Jin's west wing room for a conversation.

  Tang Sheng gave Tang Jin a look, and the two of them slipped out to the gate, one after the other.

  The night was filled with a soft, velvety darkness, and the stars twinkled like diamonds scattered across the sky. It was September, and the nights in Jiangling had started to take on a hint of coolness. Tang Jin wrapped her arms around herself, accentuating her already modest bustline... Tang Sheng sneaked a peek, but was caught by Tang Jin, who shot him a withering glance.

  Tang Sheng looked embarrassed and scratched his head, licking his lips: "......Nothing much happened, I'll go to school tomorrow..."

  "The class has officially started, and as a second monitor, you are very responsible. The classmates in the class have opinions about you."

  "Is it? Wang Zhaojun, Yuan Feiyang, Zhou Yongxu, Wan Kai and the others?"

  "It's not just that, all the class cadres have opinions about you, Ning Meng, Guan Shiyan, Pan Zixia and others also denounced you..."

  "So I'm a 'public enemy' now? I thought I was the 'people's darling', are you supporting me?"

  Tang Sheng's eyes were piercing, and this question made Tang Jin's face redden again. She was also a class cadre with voting rights.

  "Ugh, I'm trying to have a serious conversation with you, but you're not taking me seriously. Forget it, I'm leaving..."

  "Hey... wait." Tang Sheng reached out and pulled Tang Jin back as she turned to leave, but in fact, she was just pretending.

  "Don't pull, let go...!" Tang Jin hastily opened his hand and looked around, fortunately no one noticed.

  Tang Sheng took out the Audi A6 key, pressed the remote control, and with a soft 'ding' sound, the central door lock opened. "Let's get in the car and talk, I want to discuss something serious with you... Don't look at me like that, as if I'm a bad guy! Get in quickly, it's cold!"

  Tang Sheng took the lead and got into the driver's seat. Tang Jin felt a little guilty, glanced around to see that there was no one in the alley, and since they were standing under the streetlight at the entrance, it was a bit too conspicuous, and also a bit cold, so she might as well get in the car, and followed him into the vehicle.

  As soon as the car door closed, she suddenly felt warm. Tang Sheng saw that she was still hugging her arms and said, "I'll turn on the air conditioner to keep you warm?"

  "No need for that, I'm not that worn out! Get to the point and stop beating around the bush, or I won't bother with you!"

  Tang Jin's eyes evaded Tang Sheng's piercing gaze, especially when the two were alone together, she was always extremely nervous.

  "Oh... speaking of which, the old Tang Alley will definitely be demolished soon, and the new relocation plan has been basically finalized. After National Day, the demolition will start, and the dozens of households living here will have to find a place to live. I asked my 'cousin' to rent two apartments, door-to-door, you on one side, me on the other. What do you think?" Tang Sheng sought her opinion first, before discussing it with her parents next.

  Tang Jin had never really cared about these things, they were all matters that adults should worry about. However, she was extremely impressed with Tang Sheng, who was only as old as herself, and might even be younger than her in terms of the lunar calendar. But he was so sensible, with him by her side, there was nothing to worry about.

  "These things I can't control, go and talk to my mom about it, everything in our family is decided by my mom..."

  "Right, okay... If I were to ask your mom to arrange a marriage between us, would she agree?"

  "Kill you, scoundrel!" Tang Jin's head was stunned for a moment, feeling ashamed and indignant. When she glared at him, she found that his eyes were full of "sincerity".

  Tang Sheng hugged his head and laughed dryly, "Alright... we can bring up this topic again in a few years, we're too young now... hey!"

  "What's wrong with holding my head? Scared?" Tang Jin burst out laughing, if it were anyone else who made this kind of joke with him, he would probably never talk to them again. But Tang Sheng was different, after being teased by him, his heart actually felt a sweet and pleasant feeling.

  Oh no...... I'm done for, I must have made a move on him...... Tang Jin's heart was filled with guilt and she didn't dare to think further.

  Tang Sheng was afraid of scaring her away, so he changed the subject and said: "Which one of you classmates is having a birthday party? You really don't allow bringing boyfriends?"

  "Ugh... I don't have a boyfriend," Tang Jin said, her pretty face turning red as she glared at him and added, "You're just like a little brother to me."

  "Gosh! I'm so small?" Tang Sheng stretched out his head, wide-eyed and agape, in a state of utter astonishment.

  Tang Jin's silver teeth bit her lower lip, and she tapped his forehead lightly with her curved fingers, "Is that so? Are you older than me?"

  Tang Sheng rubbed his forehead, which didn't hurt from the knock, and sighed: "Alas, I'm at a disadvantage. Born in December, I'll be at a loss during winter."

  "Don't be arrogant, from now on you must respectfully call me 'sister', and don't talk nonsense to me."

  "Calling me sister is fine, but if you're too flattering I'll suffocate to death. What if I couldn't bear it and spent all of Ning Meng and Guan Shi Yin's money?"

  "How dare you?" Tang Jin glared at him for the first time with her beautiful eyes, "You try? See if I still care about you?"

  Tang Sheng raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "Alright, I promise, I'll only flirt with you, and not with them!"

  "This is about right... Huh? How did you get around me again? You sneaky guy, stick your head out and let me knock it off."

  Tang Jin's face turned red with anger and embarrassment, she raised her hand to retaliate but was caught by Tang Sheng. She struggled slightly but couldn't break free, so she stopped struggling. The two of them silently crossed their fingers, then grasped each other's hands, wordlessly gazing at each other for a moment before turning their heads away, pretending to look outside.

  "Let me hold your hand for a lifetime, let me have the chance to hurt you... just like the stars that accompany the bright moon, eternal protection."

  Tang Jin's heart was pounding, but she gripped his hand even tighter, her beautiful eyes gazing out the car window at the clear and cold moon and stars. A wild tide surged up in her mind, countless threads of emotion merged into a vast ocean that flowed through her entire body...

  At this moment, she didn't make a sound... Sometimes silence is more powerful than words, and a firm handshake had already said it all.

  At this time, Tang Wei suddenly flashed out of the gate of Tang Jin's house. He crouched down to look into the car and scared Tang Jin to quickly let go of Tang Sheng's hand.

  "I'll head home first... I haven't studied yet today..." Tang Jin's heart was in a flurry as he opened the door and jumped out of the car.

  Xiao Wei saw her sister get out of the car and immediately exclaimed, "Wow, sis, whose car is this? An Audi!"

  "How would I know? Go ask him..." Tang Jin's face was still red as she threw the words at her brother before quickly entering the courtyard.

  Xiaowei's injury has healed a lot, and his swollen eyes have gone down by more than half. He quickly got on the car.

  "Brother Sheng, is this your cousin's car? No license plate, it's new?" Tang Wei licked his lips and looked around the interior of the car.

  "Uh, your head is feeling better now, right?"

  "Uh, much better, doesn't hurt that much anymore, just itchy all over, haven't taken a bath in many days..."

  Tang Sheng smiled and said, "In two days, brother will take you to 'Jiangling people' for a wash."

  "What? A person from Jiangling?" Tang Wei swallowed his saliva and widened his eyes, "No way! Brother, where did you die a noble death?"

  "With Tang Wei's membership card, and without spending a single penny, you can wash as much as you want."

  "Uh... it's too good, brother, I mean... I've heard that there are, uh, ladies and stuff there, I'm scared..."

  "Hah... you're just 14 and still haven't grown any hair yet? Your heart is already so infatuated?"

  Tang Wei's face turned red, "No, no, our classmates said that there was a girl who gave massages, I...I was afraid..."

  Tang Sheng burst out laughing again, "There is such a service, but it's not suitable for kids. We're just going to take a bath properly."

  "Oh... that's great, too good! Sheng Ge, can I also go with the people of Jiangling to take a bath? It feels like a dream!"

  Tang Sheng glanced at him and didn't say a word. The days of the Tang family had always been difficult, but from now on, every day would be better than the last.
