SFFCK (Complete)

Chapter 41

Even after she arrived back home, Xu Lian's heart was still uneasy. It didn't matter that she won't be able to visit Xiang ChangKong's home and see his mother for a while. Anyway, improving her relationship with his mom wasn't such an urgent mission. What's troubling is that tomorrow was when Xiang ChangKong needed to go to the school to confirm his application. He'll still go...right?

In the end, Xu Lian couldn't help but call Xiang ChangKong after she had taken a bath. The phone rang for a while before it was picked up. The voice that came out of her phone was soft and gentle: "Xu Lian, what's the matter?"

Xu Lian felt bewitched by his gentle voice. But after shaking her head a few times, she managed to focus. "Well, it's nothing...what are you doing right now?"

Xiang ChangKong replied: "I just took a bath, and I was going to study a little."

After hearing that Xiang ChangKong intended to study, Xu Lian felt a little relieved. Studying meant that he still intended to go tomorrow.

"Then I won't bother you. Don't forget tomorrow's on-site confirmation."

"Nn." Xiang ChangKong spoke up before Xu Lian hung up. He said: "Don't worry about today; just wait a few days, and my mother will calm down."

Xu Lian smiled. "Alright."

The confirmation place was in City A's University of Technology. Xiang ChangKong needed to bring his ID card and certificate. He got up early in the morning, piled up all the necessary documents, then went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Weng ShuLi seemed to be in a bad mood. She got up much later than usual. When Xiang Nuan came out of her room for breakfast, she knocked on her mother's door. "Mom, are you awake? Brother has finished making breakfast. Do you want to come out and eat?"

In winter, the temperature was lower, so things cool much faster. Xiang Nuan was afraid that the food might get cold. After she knocked, Weng ShuLi opened her door in her pajamas. She didn't look very well, and her hair was only messily tied back.

"Mom?" Xiang Nuan said. Weng ShuLi looked at Xiang Nuan, then walked past her to brush her teeth. Afterward, she went to the dinner table and sat down.

Xiang ChangKong ate quickly, then went into his room to get his bag. He told Weng ShuLi: "I'll be leaving for work. You guys eat slowly."

"Okay." Xiang Nuan answered him as she took a bowl of porridge. Weng ShuLi, with chopsticks in her hand, looked at the bag he was carrying.

Xiang ChangKong sometimes brought food to work, and it was usually packed in a bag. Weng ShuLi had seen this before. Recently, Xiang ChangKong had been carrying his textbooks to work, and to not attract his mother's attention, he would use the same bag to smuggle them out. Today, there were no textbooks in his bag. Instead, it was the documents he needed.

Weng ShuLi stared at the bag right until Xiang ChangKong left.

After breakfast, Xiang Nuan took the initiative to clean up the table. Afterward, she went into her room to study. Weng ShuLi sat alone in the living room for some time, then got up and walked towards Xiang ChangKong's room.

Xiang ChangKong usually closed his door, but he never locks it. Weng ShuLi grabbed the door handle and turned it. The door opened with a 'click.'

Before, when Xiang ChangKong was still in high school, Weng ShuLi used to go into his room and clean Xiang ChangKong's room for him. After she got sick, Xiang ChangKong took over all the housework.
