The growth system comes at the age of 30

Chapter 201 There's No One Else at My House (4.5K)

For a pure love lover like Li Beixing, love is a hand that wants to touch but then pulls back.

Since she was a child, because her family protected her so well, she is able to maintain her yearning for beautiful love in the current utilitarian environment of marriage and love, and has naive and even childish and unrealistic ideas.

Pursuing an overly perfect love and having too high expectations of your partner.

If no one who meets her standards appears in her life, she may remain single.

Because most people in this world are not worthy of her attention.

However, standards are reserved for people who are not in love. When the person who makes her heart beat appears, all standards are no longer important.

In other words, that person is the new standard!

For Li Beixing, Chen Jingle is such a person, and he perfectly meets her original standards.

It's hard not to be moved.

Pure love is a mirror that reflects the absurdity of the world. In this age full of utilitarianism, doing so may not change anything, but the belief that pure love insists on will tell people that the essence of love is always the resonance of souls.

Facing Li Beixing's temptation, Chen Jingle thought for a few seconds and asked, "Besides home visits, is there anything else?"

Li Beixing pretended to be confused: "What else?"

Chen Jingle got straight to the point: "Like whether you want to come to my house as a guest or something like that."

Li Beixing was a little embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, but seeing that he said so, he still plucked up the courage to ask: "Is it okay?"

Chen Jingle smiled and said, "Sure, why not? Don't worry, there's no one else at my house."

After saying this, I felt something strange, and quickly added: "What I mean is, my parents are not at home, and I am the only one at home."

Ugh, it feels even more unsettling!
Li Beixing really wanted to visit Chen Jingle's home.

The understanding of a person can never remain on the surface. You should try your best to participate in the other person's life, leave various traces in the other person's world as much as possible, and make the other person feel that she is with him/her at all times.

Since he took the initiative to invite me, there is no need to worry about it.

However, Li Beixing still found an excuse for himself: "It would be good to see how you usually help Chen Qiyun with her studies."

Listen!

What a high-sounding reason!
No one can find fault with it.

"What is the exact time?" Chen Jingle asked.

Li Beixing thought for a moment and said, "How about tomorrow afternoon after school?"

Chen Jingle glanced at the calendar: "Oh. Then do you want to come to my house for dinner?"

"Is it okay?" Li Beixing was stunned.

The other party was so proactive that she was a little overwhelmed. If she had known that Chen Jingle would not refuse, perhaps she should have proposed it earlier.

Fortunately, it’s not too late now.

Chen Jingle smiled and said, "Sure, as I said, there's no one else at home."

Li Beixing was very envious of Chen Jingle's cooking skills and immediately agreed happily: "Okay! Looks like I'm in for a treat!"

"I'm just worried that you won't be used to the simple food."

"Be humble! If what you cook is called simple food, then there is nothing in the world that can be called delicious food."

"..."

The two of them made an agreement like this.

……

The next day during class.

"Chen Qiyun made great progress in this midterm exam, which is good. I hope she can keep it up. Also, your English score has improved so quickly. Can you share with us how you study? I see that you seem to have come across a lot of vocabulary that is not in the junior high school syllabus."

The English teacher said in class.

Facing everyone's gaze, Chen Qiyun had no choice but to stand up and said, "I usually watch videos of foreigners visiting our place to develop my sense of language. I learned some vocabulary from them."

The English teacher nodded with satisfaction: "It's a very good method. If you have the conditions, you can learn it."

"..."

Almost every teacher who came to class would praise Chen Qiyun first, which made her feel embarrassed.

However, when the total score ranking was announced, she was shocked to find that she was ranked third in the class and sixth in the grade.

"Am I really that powerful?"

And then there is the excitement.

Although I had expected that I would have a high probability of being in the top ten in the class and the top twenty in the grade, I never expected that I would be ranked so high.

Third in the class and sixth in the grade!
Isn't it possible to get into Jiangbei No. 1 Middle School? And it's an experimental class!
Thinking of this, she felt a little swelled.

However, when he thought about maintaining his calm and composed demeanor as a master in front of everyone, he could only suppress his inner joy and appear calm.

Keep pretending!

You know what, it's her calmness that makes everyone admire her even more.

"As expected of Sister Yun! She is so different even though she has seen so many storms!"

Before she could listen to everyone's flattery, she heard Li Beixing shouting at the door of the classroom: "Chen Qiyun, come out with me."

Chen Qiyun hurried out of the classroom and asked curiously, "What's the matter, Teacher Li?"

Li Beixing smiled and said to her, "You have made great progress in this exam. The teacher would like to go to your home this afternoon to talk to your parents about your study situation during this period, as well as suggestions for your future. I would like to hear your thoughts."

If it were other students and she was not the class teacher, she would certainly not take it so seriously.

Since it’s related to Chen Jingle, it’s different.

Besides, this little girl Chen Qiyun is quite likable.

"what?!"

Chen Qiyun was stunned, feeling inexplicably guilty and a little inferior.

Although she had behaved well during this period, she had become accustomed to being in awe of teachers over the years. When she heard that there would be a home visit, she was a little panicked.

"Teacher, can you not come to my house?" She was a little timid.

Before, when Li Beixing said she wanted to find the parents, she always asked Chen Jingle for help.

"Um?!"

Li Beixing was stunned, then his face turned stern: "No!"

She had already made an appointment with Chen Jingle, so how could she not go?

Chen Qiyun rolled her eyes and said, "Why don't you go to my brother's house? It's the same thing."

Li Beixing raised his eyebrows: "You have to go to your brother's house, and you have to go to yours too."

Seeing her sad face, Li Beixing found it funny: "It's okay, don't think too much, the teacher won't say anything bad about you."

Chen Qiyun asked hesitantly, "Are there other teachers going with us?"

Li Beixing was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "No, it's just me."

Chen Qiyun nodded: "Then I understand."

If it were just Teacher Li alone, she wouldn't be under so much pressure.

She was afraid that three or four teachers would come at once, and she wouldn't even dare to breathe loudly in front of the teachers.

Li Beixing probably guessed some of her thoughts, so he smiled and rubbed her hair and said, "Wait for me after school this afternoon."

That's how it was settled.

……

"Teacher Li said she would come for a home visit."

When she returned home at noon, Chen Qiyun said to Chen Jingle with a bitter face.

"is it?"

Chen Jingle pretended to be surprised.

"I said that I made great progress in this exam and wanted to talk to my parents about it." Chen Qiyun pretended to casually reveal the information that her overall score in this exam was good, and glanced at Chen Jingle.

As expected, Chen Jingle asked, "Has the overall score come out? How did you do in the exam?"

Chen Qiyun puffed out her chest proudly: "Third in the class, sixth in the grade!"

Oh? !

Chen Jingle was surprised: "Amazing, Chen Qiyun, you have indeed made great progress, even more exaggerated than I expected. Not bad, not bad, you should be praised and rewarded!"

When Chen Qiyun heard what Chen Jingle said, her mouth almost stretched to her ears.

I feel so happy!
Compared with Chen Jingle's, other people's praises felt like a world away.

"So what's the reward?" Chen Qiyun asked. Chen Jingle didn't mind and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely satisfy you."

He did not say what the specific rewards were.

In fact, I haven’t thought about it yet. Even the gift for growing taller that I promised Chen Qiyun last time was just a plan and has not been put into action yet.

Seeing this, Chen Qiyun had no choice but to give up and continue the previous topic: "But fortunately, she was the only one who came, and the other teachers didn't come with her."

The look of relief on her face was somewhat funny.

Chen Jingle found it funny: "Are you so afraid of the teacher?"

Chen Qiyun asked back: "Aren't you afraid?"

"Of course I'm not afraid!"

Chen Jingle stiffened his neck and said, "When I was in school, I was a good student. The teachers liked me the most. Why should I be afraid?"

"But I heard that when the teacher came to visit your home, you were so shy that you hid and didn't dare to come out to see anyone?" Chen Qiyun asked puzzledly.

"Who said that? This is pure slander!"

Chen Jingle refused to admit it.

Besides, that happened many years ago? Does what happened in elementary school have anything to do with him now?

"My dad said it, he probably didn't lie." Chen Qiyun muttered softly.

Chen Jingle pretended not to hear: "Don't worry, you just need to sit by and let your parents talk to Teacher Li. Of course, if you have any opinions, you can also raise them and tell the teacher yourself when the time comes."

Chen Qiyun thought about it and shrank her neck: "I don't have any objection."

"Okay, now that everything has been agreed upon, just wait." Chen Jingle waved his hand.

Because she was thinking about Li Beixing's home visit in the afternoon, Chen Qiyun's appetite for lunch was much worse than usual. For the first time, she felt that the food cooked by Chen Jingle was not that delicious.

Ugh!
……

School in the afternoon.

After packing up his things, Li Beixing took Chen Qiyun who was waiting at the office door with him.

"Fasten your seat belts, we're ready to go."

It was the first time for Li Beixing to go to Chen Qiyun's house. He first located the navigation on the map, and after entering the village, he needed Chen Qiyun's help to find the way.

It’s not far from the school, just next to Huancheng West Road. I’ve passed by there many times before, but I didn’t expect that Chen Qiyun and Chen Jingle’s homes were there. I only found out later.

The car drove smoothly all the way, and when it entered the village entrance, Li Beixing slowed down.

Chen Qiyun suddenly said, "That's Brother Le's house."

Li Beixing looked in the direction of her finger and was a little surprised.

The house looked much better than the houses of the surrounding villagers. It was a very beautiful and modern country villa. It was obviously designed by professionals.

And you can see at a glance that there are a lot of flowers in the yard, and the flowers are blooming beautifully.

Li Beixing turned and drove to the outside of Chen Jingle's yard.

"Well, let's take a look here first and then go to your house later." Li Beixing hesitantly.

"Oh."

Chen Qiyun didn't notice anything unusual and quickly got out of the car to open the door.

"Brother Le, come and see who's here?" She shouted before she even entered the door.

Li Beixing was still looking in the mirror to see if her makeup was smudged.

Considering that she was going to come for a home visit, she was dressed very simply today and put on light makeup. Overall, she was much simpler than when she usually met Chen Jingle. However, at this moment, she was subconsciously worried that she would leave a bad impression on Chen Jingle.

Chen Jingle walked out of the room and saw Li Beixing who was lagging behind. He immediately smiled and said, "Hello, Teacher Li."

Li Beixing felt uncomfortable when he was called "Teacher Li".

How many times have I told you not to call her teacher?

I just won’t listen!
"Sorry to bother you." Li Beixing said politely, looking around the yard subconsciously.

They planted a lot of flowers and had a fat tabby cat. The A4L they had bought together before was parked in the parking space in the yard.

Is this Chen Jingle’s home?

Chen Jingle looked at Li Beixing, who was obviously a little reserved, in surprise and a little funny. Could it be that he was embarrassed to act too casual in front of Chen Qiyun?
Okay~!

After entering the house, the decoration inside is not luxurious, but the layout is reasonable, and the house is very clean, which is a little different from what I imagined a single otaku's residence to be. I don't know if it was cleaned in advance, or if it is always so clean and tidy.

Li Beixing muttered to himself.

From the current perspective, it is much better than expected. It gives her the feeling that the people living here are people who love life.

"Please take a seat. Would you like tea, drinks or mineral water? The drinks available are jasmine honey tea, cola and lemonade."

Chen Jingle asked.

Li Beixing said: "Boiled water is fine."

"Okay~!"

Chen Jingle poured her a glass of warm mineral water.

Only then did Li Beixing relax a little and said with a smile: "Do you usually live alone?"

Chen Jingle nodded: "Yeah, that's right. My parents are both working outside, and I'm alone at home. Chen Qiyun came over for dinner, and then went back to her own home after dinner."

After a pause, he pointed to the room next door and said, "Chen Qiyun does her homework in that room. I live upstairs."

Li Beixing actually wanted to go upstairs to see his room, but he felt it was too presumptuous, so he held back.

After thinking for a while, he said, "You take good care of your flowers!"

"I just planted them randomly, otherwise the yard would be bare and look too monotonous." Chen Jingle chuckled.

"My mother has also recently become fascinated with growing bougainvillea, but her level is just average."

"Well, I'm just growing it for fun, why do you care so much? Just like it."

Chen Jingle thought for a moment and said, "Since Auntie likes it, I'll give you two pots to take with you when you leave later."

"Ah?!" Li Beixing was stunned: "Are you sure?"

“Just two pots of flowers.”

Chen Jingle smiled and said, "Didn't you say that Auntie also grows bougainvillea? I have these two pots growing well. I gave away a few pots to others before, and later I planted a lot more, but they haven't grown up yet. For me, as long as the biggest one planted in the ground is still there, it's fine."

Li Beixing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll thank you on behalf of my mother!"

Chen Jingle: "For dinner, we'll have braised pork with candied kumquats, stuffed scallops with various flowers, stir-fried shrimp balls with celery and lily bulbs, stir-fried kale, and lotus root and pork rib soup with peanuts. Is that ok?"

Li Beixing: "I'll eat whatever you cook."

Chen Qiyun felt something was wrong while listening nearby.

No, how come you seem to have discussed it in advance?
Am I the only one who was kept in the dark?
what's the situation? !

She widened her eyes and looked back and forth between Chen Jingle and Li Beixing in disbelief.

"What are you looking at?"

Chen Jingle noticed that Chen Qiyun had a strange expression and asked immediately.

Chen Qiyun hesitated and shook her head quickly: "Nothing!"

Thinking back to the last food festival, she felt that there was something wrong with these two people, and that there were some signs of that. Now she was more and more certain of her guess.

Damn Chen Jingle!

They must have known in advance that Teacher Li was coming, so they prepared so many delicious dishes. Otherwise, when it was just the two of them, they would usually have two dishes and a soup at most, but today they had four dishes and one soup!

If it wasn’t prepared for Teacher Li, would you have done so much?
She doesn't believe it!

"Are we going to eat now?" Chen Qiyun asked hesitantly.

Chen Jingle shook his head and said, "Let's wait until Teacher Li finishes the home visit."

Although Li Beixing couldn't wait to try the food made by Chen Jingle, he came here for Chen Qiyun's matter after all, so he nodded and agreed: "Well, there's no rush."

"Then let's go over quickly, finish our chat early and come back to eat early." Chen Qiyun said.

"Okay." Seeing this, Li Beixing didn't know what to say. There would be plenty of time later anyway.

Chen Jingle said: "I won't go there."

"Why?" Li Beixing was surprised.

Chen Jingle shrugged: "I can't help you if I go over there, and it might make you feel uncomfortable."

In that case, Li Beixing had no choice but to go alone with Chen Qiyun.
