The Best Of You (English Ver.) - Chapter 33
Lin Jing took out a large bag from the car, Sun Tiantian immediately walked over to him and smiled sweetly, “Brother, have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet.” Lin Jing glanced at her and said, “Why? You want to treat me?”
Sun Tiantian, “The food on our campus is so bad, you won’t be able to eat it. You better go back to your office and eat there.”
As she spoke, she immediately opened the car door for Lin Jing, and said with a sweet smile, “Brother, please get in the car.”
Lin Jing, “…”
Lin Jing was silent for a moment, then looked at Shen Nianshen who was standing at the side. His eyes were dark and deep, as if he wanted to see right through the person, but he did nothing and finally turned around to get into the car.
Sun Tiantian hurriedly helped her brother close the car door and lifted the food bag in her hand, “Sorry for the troublesome Brother.”
Lin Jing glanced at her and said, “Do well on your exams at the end of the semester, you don’t want to repeat them.”
Sun Tiantian stuck out her tongue, “Got it.”
And Lin Jing left. He made it seem as if his trip was on purpose to deliver food for Sun Tiantian.
Sun Tiantian watched her brother’s car getting farther away, then she ran back. Holding onto Shen Nianshen’s arm happily, “Ah Nian, let’s go to eat.”
Shen Nianshen only said yes and nothing more. Helping Sun Tiantian with her bag of food, “Let me.”
The two of them went to their usual fried rice restaurant, at the same time also ordered the cheapest egg fried rice.
Shen Nianshen was silent for a while, but eventually he asked, “Is that your biological brother?”
Sun Tiantian immediately laughed, “My classmates also used to ask questions like that before. He is my biological brother, but my brother followed my mother’s surname and I followed my father’s surname.”
“Oh.” Shen Nianshen responded, then looked away and no longer spoke.
Sun Tiantian, who saw Shen Nianshen went quiet, was afraid that he would feel stressed. She immediately moved to sit next to him and said seriously, “Shen Nianshen, please don’t feel burdened. Even though my brother is a little bit great, but you are also great. You are the best student in science, you are broad-minded, so smart and handsome. In this world, you’re second to none.”
Sun Tiantian’s tone was slightly proud and she looked at Shen Nianshen full of admiration.
Shen Nianshen smiled, still no words.
After lunch, Shen Nianshen escorted Sun Tiantian back to her dorm.
In front of the dormitory gate, Sun Tiantian stood still, and Shen Nianshen just looked at her, “Get inside.”
Sun Tiantian held his hand and didn’t want to let go, “What are you going to do later?”
“Go to the library.”
Sun Tiantian quickly hugged Shen Nianshen’s arm and said, “I’ll go with you!”
Shen Nianshen smiled deeply and stroked her head, “You rest first. After that, you can come to see me.”
Sun Tiantian thought for a moment. She had spent a long time on the bus back to campus all day, a little tiring indeed. Besides that, she also had to change her clothes.
“Okay, you go first. I’ll go to see you later.”
Shen Nianshen, “Go on then.”
Sun Tiantian then reluctantly let go of his hand and turned around to walk into her dormitory.
After a few steps, she stopped abruptly. Stood still for two seconds, and suddenly run back up.
Shen Nianshen raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, “What now?”
Sun Tiantian looked around, swiftly hugged Shen Nianshen’s neck, tiptoed, and kissed Shen Nianshen’s lips. Then immediately let go and ran into the dormitory.
Shen Nianshen didn’t have time to say anything. In the blink of an eye, the spoiled girl had already dashed away like a rabbit.
He could still felt the warm softness on his lips. Shen Nianshen looked towards the direction where Sun Tiantian was leaving, a smile appeared in his eyes.
After standing there for some time, he turned around and walked away.
When Shen Nianshen returned to his dorm, only Xu Li was playing games alone in their room.
“You’re back?”
Shen Nianshen agreed and threw his backpack on the study table.
“You’ve been staying home for two days, aren’t you dating Tiantian?”
“Yesterday I went to Mount Mingyue.” Shen Nianshen took out a book from his backpack and casually replied.
“Mount Mingyue?” Xu Li was stunned and turned his head at once, “Seriously? Mingyue Mountain Resort? Is it a luxurious place with a high consumption cost?”
Shen Nianshen agreed.
Xu Li frowned, “Ah Nian, it’s not easy for you to make money. There’s no need for Tiantian’s sake …”
“Guess who I just met.” Shen Nianshen suddenly interrupted Xu Li.
Xu Li was stunned for a moment, “Who?”
“Lin Jing.”
Xu Li, “Which Lin Jing?”
Shen Nianshen looked at him deeply with his deep eyes.
Xu Li, “Seriously? Lin Jing from the Hengxi Real Estate?”
Shen Nianshen agreed and added, “He’s Sun Tiantian’s older brother.”
“Jeez!” Xu Li’s eyes widened instantly and his face looked shocked, “You’re kidding, right? Tiantian is actually the daughter of Hengxi Real Estate owner???”
Shen Nianshen only stared at his comrade, no words.
Xu Li, “It’s not true. Tiantian’s surnamed is Sun. Why her brother’s surname is Lin?”
Shen Nianshen, “Tiantian followed her father’s surname and her brother followed her mother’s surname.”
“……”
Xu Li became a little stupid, he was not speaking for a long time.
When he reacted again, his first question was in worried, “Ah Nian, are you okay?”
At first, he thought Sun Tiantian only came from a wealthy family. Who knows that this girl turns out to be the daughter of such a rich person, she really doesn’t resemble one bit. There was no way she looked like a rich man’s daughter. Back when Tiantian was still in the Roller Skate Club, Tiantian could join them to eat at cheap restaurants, she could drink a bottle of water for five yuan, and could eat satay on the roadside with them …
But if Tiantian really had such a prominent background, would her family agree to her with Ah Nian?
Xu Li suddenly very worried about Shen Nianshen and asked carefully, “Her brother didn’t say anything to you, right?”
Shen Nianshen, “No.”
He took his clothes from the cupboard and went to the bathroom to take shower.
After a while, when Shen Nianshen came out of the bathroom, Xu Li was still drowning in shock and had not fully recovered. When Shen Nianshen changed his clothes, Xu Li unconsciously asked, “Where are you going?”
Shen Nianshen picked up several books as well as his notebook, “Library.”
While talking, he was already walking out.
Xu Li sat on his chair and stared toward Shen Nianshen’s leaving direction who was gone for a long time, suddenly he was a little clueless.
He used to feel that Ah Nian was able to meet Tiantian because of good luck. At least after being with Tiantian, Ah Nian became happier than before, and from time to time he continued to show a happy smile on his face.
But now it’s a little confusing. In the case of Ah Nian met Tiantian, for Ah Nian was it a good thing or a bad thing? Ah Nian was a person who so highly values self-esteem, who knew how much psychological pressure he has to endure.
–***–
Sun Tiantian came out to change after she finished taking a shower. Cheng Duo widened her eyes in surprise, “You said you and Shen Nianshen went out to play, in the end, Shen Nianshen told the receptionist that he wanted two rooms???”
Sun Tiantian put on a sweater, then sat on the bench to put on her socks and sighed, “That’s right. I told him that I was scared, and didn’t want to sleep alone. Finally, guess what he said?”
The girls shook their heads and said at the same time, “What did he say?”
Sun Tiantian said quietly, “He told the receptionist that he wanted a standard room, he also emphasized that he wanted the one with two beds.”
After she finished saying that, the girls laughed.
Cheng Duo burst out laughing until the tears were about to flow out. After a few moments of laughter, then she wiped the tears, “Tiantian, to be honest. Your Ah Nian, he has no problem, right? This is clearly not normal.”
Normal men should be tempted to stay in the same room with their girlfriends. In fact, it would be better if it’s one bed, it’ll be more comfortable to do something …
“You’re the one with a problem, your Xu Li is the one with a problem.”
Cheng Duo laughed, “No problem. That Xu Li, you can call him whatever you want.”
Sun Tiantian, “…”
Sun Tiantian finished changing clothes and ran to the library carrying a book.
When she entered the library, she saw Shen Nianshen sitting near the window.
Sun Tiantian walked slowly and covered the young man’s eyes from behind, her lips pressed against his ear and whispered, “Guess who I am?”
Shen Nianshen smiled and pulled her hand, “Don’t be cheeky.”
Sun Tiantian chuckled and sat down beside him, she glanced over the table and there was a pile of books there. She turned two pages of a book, then threw it away dizzily. The book was full of symbols and digital numbers, she knew nothing that was written on them.
Shen Nianshen held Tiantian’s hand and said quietly, “Didn’t you wear gloves? It’s so cold.”
Sun Tiantian chuckled and whispered, “I forgot.”
Shen Nianshen held both Sun Tiantian’s hands in his palms, warming them for a moment. Sun Tiantian wanted to withdraw her hand, but Shen Nianshen continued to watch over her.
Sun Tiantian whispered softly, “You just do your study, I won’t bothering you.”
Sun Tiantian’s palm was still very cold, Shen Nianshen let go of his right hand and used his left hand to firmly hold onto Sun Tiantian’s hand.
He read the book while helping Sun Tiantian warmed her hands.
Sun Tiantian sat beside him, kept quiet, and made no sound. Her gaze fell on her hand that was held tightly by Shen Nianshen, she was unable to stop but laugh softly.
Shen Nianshen was very serious when studying and Sun Tiantian didn’t want to bother him. So she quietly moved to sit across him and started drawing.
Once she drew, she kept drawing until eight o’clock in the evening. Sun Tiantian was already a little hungry. She looked up and reached out to tug Shen Nianshen’s sleeve, “Ah Nian, how much longer?”
Shen Nianshen looked up from the book and saw Sun Tiantian staring at him with a pitiful face, “What’s the matter?”
Sun Tiantian pursed her lips and said softly, “I’m very hungry.”
Shen Nianshen was stunned, subconsciously picked up his cell phone to check the time, and it was already past eight.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I forgot.” As he spoke, he immediately cleaned up his belongings. Then he took Sun Tiantian out of the library.
Sun Tiantian was urged by Shen Nianshen to go downstairs, but Sun Tiantian just followed behind him and walked slowly.
After walking for a while, Shen Nianshen eventually felt that something was off. He looked back and found Sun Tiantian was looking at him with a face full of bitterness.
Shen Nianshen was stunned and subconsciously asked, “What’s wrong?”
Sun Tiantian, “Hungry.”
Shen Nianshen, “I know, now I’m taking you out for dinner.”
Sun Tiantian leaned on Shen Nianshen’s body and said in a soft, spoiled voice, “I’m so hungry that I can’t walk anymore.”
Shen Nianshen, “…”
Sun Tiantian grinned and hold on to Shen Nianshen’s shoulders, “Carry me.”
“Sun Tiantian, you …”
“Me what?”
Shen Nianshen rubbed his temples and smiled helplessly, “OK, get on.”
As he spoke, he went down one step and crouched down.
Sun Tiantian was so happy, she quickly climbed onto Shen Nianshen’s back and hugged his neck from behind.
Shen Nianshen carried Sun Tiantian out of the library building. A gentle breeze blew their way. Sun Tiantian closed her eyes, resting her head on Shen Nianshen’s back. She could smell the faint mint scent of the young man’s body, the happiness in her heart seemed to burst out and made her said softly, “Shen Nianshen, you are very kind. I really like you so much.”
Shen Nianshen heard her, his heart shivered slightly. His eyes were darker than the night sky. After a while, he said quietly, “I like you too.”
