Film and Television Overview: Starting from the Same Window

Looking closely at Zhou Shengchen's handsome face, Yang Chaoyue blushed and turned her head away slightly, whispering, "Boss, your hand..."

"I'm sorry, Chaoyue, I was just trying to help you up. Please don't take it personally!" Zhou Shengchen pretended to realize what had happened and helped Yang Chaoyue up.

Looking at the things scattered all over the ground, Yang Chaoyue said apologetically, "I'm sorry, boss. If you hadn't helped me up, these things wouldn't be stuck on the ground."

"Compared to you, these things are nothing," Zhou Shengchen said nonchalantly. "Most of these were bought by me at a supermarket in Shanghai yesterday. Pick them up, I'll go open the door!"

"Mmmmmmm!"

Yang Chaoyue suddenly realized what was happening and quickly bent down to pick up the things on the ground.

Zhou Shengchen took the opportunity to take out his key and open the villa door. Then, together with Yang Chaoyue, they picked up the things on the ground and went into the villa.

Zhou Shengchen casually tossed the things onto the living room table and said, "Chaoyue, take a look at those things when you have time. Take whatever you need! I remember Xiao Ai bought several sets of cosmetics, so I got you one!"

"Thank you, boss!" Yang Chaoyue said happily.

"It's almost dinner time, have you eaten yet?" Zhou Shengchen asked.

"No!" Yang Chaoyue shook her head and said, "I've been staying at Aunt Li's house for the past two days. I've been eating at her house. Aunt Li is cooking right now, and she wants me to come over for dinner."

Zhou Shengchen said, "Next time I visit, I'll bring a small gift."

"Okay, okay," Yang Chaoyue said with a grin. "These past two days, I've been buying some fruit and snacks to take with me every time I come back from driving practice!"

Zhou Shengchen said, "That's good!"

Then, he bent down and picked out a few things from the table, and took Yang Chaoyue to the next room to thank Li Rong and his wife for taking Yang Chaoyue in for the past two days.

After expressing his gratitude, Zhou Shengchen left with Yang Chaoyue.

However, he ran into Sang Zhi, who was returning from school, just as he stepped out.

She seemed a little down at the moment, and kept muttering things like, "Sang Yan, you left me to die," "Sang Yan, you're heartless and ungrateful," "Sang Yan, you're cold-blooded and ruthless," and "Sang Yan, you big idiot dog."

When Zhou Shengchen appeared in front of her, Sang Zhi's eyes seemed to brighten a little.

"Brother, are you free tomorrow?" Sang Zhi asked Zhou Shengchen expectantly.

Zhou Shengchen lowered his eyes and said lazily, "Would you be disappointed if I said I'm not free tomorrow?"

"Mmm-hmm-hmm!" Sang Zhi nodded frantically.

Zhou Shengchen's expression was a half-smile: "I'm free tomorrow, what are you planning to do? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Sang Zhi hesitated for a moment, then said slowly, "Could you pretend to be my brother, the kind I'm close to?"

Zhou Shengchen raised an eyebrow.

"And then," Sang Zhi's voice lowered, seemingly finding it a little difficult to say, "I went to see my teacher..."

Zhou Shengchen said "Oh," and then drew out his voice: "So your sister's parents were called in! That's amazing!"

Sang Zhi fell silent, as if acquiescing.

"What did you do wrong?" Zhou Shengchen asked curiously.

After a slight hesitation, Sang Zhi reluctantly said, "I wasn't paying attention in class. The teacher called on me to answer a question, and I answered correctly. Then he said he needed to bring my parents in..."

"Do you think I'd believe such an absurd reason?" Zhou Shengchen looked down at the little girl in front of him, his smile playful.

“But it’s all true,” Sang Zhi said hurriedly. “If you don’t believe me, you’ll find out tomorrow. If I lie to you now, the teacher will tell you the truth tomorrow.”

“That makes sense.” Zhou Shengchen nodded. Then he changed the subject, saying, “I’d like to know exactly what happened. Would you mind telling me?”

Upon hearing this, Sang Zhi lowered her head and slowly organized her thoughts, "After I answered Yan's question, he asked me again if I wanted to take his place and teach for him. I felt that was definitely not an option, so I refused."

Zhou Shengchen: "..."

Sang Zhi raised her eyelids and glanced cautiously at Zhou Shengchen, as if wanting to see his reaction, before quickly looking away.

She stood there obediently, looking very honest: "Then you know, he said he would call the parents."

After saying the last word, Sang Zhi felt as if the whole world had fallen silent.

Having concealed some information, Sang Zhi actually felt quite guilty.

Seeing that Zhou Shengchen remained silent for a long time, she couldn't help but say, "Don't you believe me?"

Zhou Shengchen said, "I don't disbelieve it."

Sang Zhi looked at Zhou Shengchen in a flattering manner: "Brother, are you coming tomorrow or not? I've already told you the truth."

"It depends on my mood!" Zhou Shengchen said lazily.

"Depends on my mood?" Sang Zhi stared with her big, innocent eyes. "Brother, you can't do this. You have to go tomorrow."

"Can I think about it?" Zhou Shengchen asked.

4.2 Sang Zhi asked, "When can you give me a definite answer?"

"Ten minutes later!" Zhou Shengchen said.

“Alright!” Sang Zhi said with a smile.

After that, the three of them parted ways.

After taking Yang Chaoyue to the parking lot, Zhou Shengchen sat down and immediately sent a text message to Sang Yan.

Zhou Shengchen: "Your sister's parents were called in. She just asked me if I could go see the teacher on her behalf. What do you think we should do? Should I go?"

Sang Yan: "No wonder that brat kept texting me, asking if I was going home. So that's what she was up to!"

Zhou Shengchen: "So, should I go or not?"

Sang Yan: "It's probably nothing serious. The kid's been called several times already, and it's always the same few reasons. If you're free tomorrow, go for me!"

Zhou Shengchen: "Okay!"

After ending his chat with Sang Yan, Zhou Shengchen sent a message to Sang Zhi, saying that he would go there after school tomorrow and asked her to send him her class information.

Chapter 207: Arriving Late

the next day.

Xuri Middle School, Grade 8, Class 1.

Sang Zhi didn't hear a single word of what the teacher said in class today; she didn't care at all.

All she could think about today was getting her parents called in.

Because she kept thinking about this, Sang Zhi didn't listen to the lesson all day, and kept looking out the window towards the school gate.

She only calmed down a bit after being criticized by several teachers.

Finally, it was 4:20 PM, and the school bell rang for Xuri Middle School. Students left one after another to go home.

Sang Zhi sat alone in her seat, glancing out the window every now and then, anxiously waiting for a handsome young man who had promised to come over.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes, Sang Zhi still hadn't seen Zhou Shengchen. She became increasingly annoyed and muttered to herself that he was a big liar who only deceived children, and that she would never talk to him again.

Sang Zhi got up, slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, and prepared to leave.

Just then, an apologetic voice rang out from the doorway: "I'm sorry, little sister Sang Zhi, I'm late."

Zhou Shengchen stood in front of the door, dressed in a white suit and trousers, with slightly long bangs that covered his eyebrows; his features were so outstanding that they were almost too striking.

Upon hearing the voice, Sang Zhi looked up at the figure in front of her, her eyes immediately lit up, and she unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

She pouted as she walked up to Zhou Shengchen and complained, "Brother, why are you so late? I've been waiting for ages."

"I'm so sorry, little sister!"

Zhou Shengchen quickly apologized, "I thought you guys got out of school at 5 PM. I didn't expect you to get out at 4:20 PM. As soon as I arrived, I saw a few students walking out, so I rushed over. I'm sorry, little sister, please forgive your brother this time, okay?"

Zhou Shengchen really hadn't expected this.

Throughout his many lives, both past and present, he had attended junior high school twice, yet he had never known that there was a school that dismissed students at 4:20 PM.

"Huh?" Xiao Sangzhi was taken aback. "Brother, doesn't everyone get out of school at 4:20? Are there other times when school ends?"

Zhou Shengchen said, "Most schools let out at 5:30 p.m., but in some places, with evening self-study, it can be 9 or 10 p.m.

"Is it really that terrifying?" Sang Zhitan's mouth gaped open, her face full of shock.

“Yes!” Zhou Shengchen nodded affirmatively.

Sang Zhi quickly closed the door and urged, "Brother, come with me quickly, the teacher hasn't left yet!"

What Sang Zhi was about to do was the most outrageous and serious thing she had ever done.

They conspired with others to deceive the teacher.

As they walked towards the office together, Xiao Sangzhi solemnly instructed, "Brother, don't talk too much later. Otherwise, if we get caught and our identities are exposed, we'll be finished."

Zhou Shengchen licked his lips and said with a smile, "Is it really that scary?"

"It's not that scary!"

Thinking Zhou Shengchen was scared, Sang Zhi quickly comforted him in a low voice, "Just relax in a bit. The teacher is just complaining to you, and you can just agree with him. It'll be fine."

"You seem to have a lot of experience!"

Zhou Shengchen ruffled the little girl's hair, his tone slightly playful.

"Where is it?"

Sang Zhi lowered her head, looking somewhat embarrassed.

During their conversation, the two arrived at the office. Upon entering, Sang Zhi led Zhou Shengchen to a middle-aged man wearing glasses.

Sang Zhi pointed to Zhou Shengchen and introduced him, "Teacher, this is my brother."

Zhou Shengchen stood beside her, extended his right hand, and said frankly and calmly, "Hello, teacher, my name is Sang Yan, and I am Sang Zhi's older brother."

Sang Zhi was initially worried that Zhou Shengchen would be too frightened to speak, but she was surprised to hear the name "Sang Yan". Moreover, he told the lie calmly and confidently, with no wavering in his tone.

She couldn't help but glance at Zhou Shengchen.

"Sang Yan? Sang Zhi's brother?"

The teacher reached out and gently shook his hand, a hint of suspicion on his face.

To be honest, he had some doubts about whether the handsome young man in front of him was actually Sang Zhi's brother.

After all, it was always Sang Zhi's mother and father who came before; this so-called brother was actually visiting for the first time.
