Chapter 225: Entering Senior Year

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shen Jun felt like he had been on an emotional rollercoaster throughout the day. From the frustration of pretending to be a stranger to his good neighbor, to the jealousy sparked by the paper stars, and the panic of their relationship being discovered, followed by the surprise of being firmly chosen by Wen Nian. It had been an eventful and exciting day.

Fortunately, the outcome was still perfect. The revelation of their romantic relationship was the most unexpected and joyful part of the day.

As Shen Jun thought about Wen’s family usually closing their shop after 9 p.m., he casually inquired, “Uncle and Auntie, business was good today, right? You closed early.”

Wen Xing and Zhou Mei didn’t think much of it and replied casually, “No, it’s not that early. We usually close at 9:30 p.m. every day. But today, Wen Nian’s aunt called and said that you two were dating at a young age, so we decided to come home early and clarify the situation.”

Shen Jun didn’t want to continue their relationship as a secret, but there was a difference between voluntarily revealing it and being exposed by others.

Unexpectedly, the good deed he had done today had not been rewarded but rather met with punishment. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he lowered his eyes to conceal the dark expression in his gaze.

While they were in Wen’s house, they had to consider Zhou Mei and Wen Xing, but as soon as they left, Shen Jun immediately held Wen Nian’s hand, intertwining their fingers.

Seeing Shen Jun’s small gesture, Wen Nian smiled and teased, “If you’re brave enough, you should have held my hand while we were still in my house.”

Shen Jun glanced at Wen Nian and replied with a faint smile, “You’re provoking me, huh? Next time 1 hold your hand, don’t even think about letting go.”

Wen Nian playfully huffed but didn’t dare to say anything else, afraid that Shen Jun would actually follow through with his words. She didn’t have that much courage.

Wen Nian walked alongside Shen Jun toward the parking lot in the courtyard. She glanced up at him, hesitated for a moment, and then broached the subject of investigating the gold bars. “I might need your help regarding the gold bars.”

Prominent families often cultivate a group of loyal agents and establish their own intelligence systems, particularly families like the Shen family, which boast capabilities comparable to national intelligence agencies in certain areas.

Shen Jun tenderly touched Wen Nian’s head and gazed at her with affectionate eyes. “Of course, you have to ask me. If you were to ask someone else instead of me, it could potentially lead to trouble.”

Wen Nian scratched her temple, feeling somewhat disheartened. “1 just can’t help but think that since we’ve known each other, you’ve always been there for me, but 1 haven’t helped you much.”

Observing Wen Nian’s stubbornness, Shen Jun curved his lips into a smile. “Who said that? If it weren’t for you cleaning up for me, I would have had to survive on sandwiches for an entire semester last year. Besides, I ended up having numerous meals at your placed did tutor you in return. Therefore, this can be considered mutual assistance.”

“Don’t waste time dwelling on these things. Instead, focus on doing a few practice test papers. Your parents have assigned us a task, and if you’re not in the mood for writing, you can study how to breathe while kissing. Avoid getting too breathless every time.”

As Shen Jun adopted a more lighthearted tone, Wen Nian’s attention shifted from his words to his captivating smile. Fler lips couldn’t help but curl up as she playfully rolled her eyes. “You have two different personas—one in public and another in private. You’re getting better and better at disguising yourself.”

Not able to resist, Shen Jun gently pinched Wen Nian’s cheeks, his voice softening. “Not everyone can see that side. It’s exclusively for you.”

Reluctantly, they continued their conversation for a while before parting ways.

During the summer vacation, Wen Nian dedicated herself to studying harder than ever, aiming to exchange her relationship with Shen Jun for excellent grades. The two-month break flew by quickly.

In early September, a new school year began in Huaguo. Wen Xing and Zhou Mei felt confident enough to allow Wen Yu to go to Danfu University in the magical city of China on his own.

Before departing, Wen Nian, Bai Zheng, and Zheng Mo gathered once more. Witnessing the bond between the two, who had once disliked each other just six months ago, and now embarking on a trip to the capital together, Wen Nian couldn’t help but feel emotional.

After bidding farewell to friends and relatives heading off to college, Wen Nian officially started her senior year of high school.

On the first day of school, everyone arrived in the classroom early. Even though they were physically here, their minds were elsewhere.

Conversations in the classroom mostly revolved around summer vacations, complaints about parents enrolling them in various training programs, and discussions about the academic pressures they would face in their senior year..
