Chapter 4045: The Other Side 14

Youyou looked stunned. Are girls so precocious these days? Starting to fall in love at this age?

“And… what about you?”

Little Yichen was surprised to hear that. “Are you concerned about me, Youyou? I’m so touched.”

The boy replied, “… Well, just take it as that!”

Little Yichen grew rather puffed up. “I get along with the boys at school.”

“You have many brothers.”

“Uh huh.”

“Why?” Youyou arched an eyebrow. “Why aren’t you popular with the girls?”

“I don’t usually like hanging out with girls.” He added, “Girls don’t know how to play soccer or basketball, they can’t swing a tennis racket, it’s hard to find something common.”

“I see…” Youyou picked up his book again and went back to reading quietly.

Little Yichen yawned several times and rubbed his eyes. He was sleepy, so he got up and went back to his room to rest.

…

Little Yichen and Youyou went to the same school. They were in the same class and sat in the same row, one behind the other. However, their grades were a world of difference.

It wasn’t that Little Yichen didn’t do well in his studies. Rather, he didn’t enjoy learning. Hence Yun Shishi didn’t keep a tight rein on him in that regard. For her, at their age, it ought to be a time of least childhood stress. It wouldn’t be too late for them to turn to their studies when they came to junior high. They ought to have a good time in elementary school.

Furthermore, boys were full of energy during elementary school. She didn’t want to raise her two children to be nerds who knew nothing else apart from their studies.

However Youyou was different. He did like reading. Although Gong Fan was not as interested in books as Youyou, he enjoyed reading a broad range of reference books and foreign books. He also liked reading novels, reasoning, and mysteries. They were his favorites.

Little Yichen, on the other hand, was playful. He excelled at football, basketball, and particularly, tennis.

In these areas, Yun Shishi was more indulgent. She even learned how to play tennis. When she had free time, she would have a game with Little Yichen. Eventually, she found herself in an embarrassing position that she, as an adult, could not play as well as Little Yichen.

Both Little Yichen and Youyou were quite popular at school.

Children these days should not be underestimated, they are all very precocious. The girls enjoy watching idol dramas and read romance novels. They also have fuzzy romantic fantasies.

There were also two young couples in Youyou’s class.

However, Youyou didn’t much like hanging out with girls.

On this particular day in class, Youyou got into class and was about to place his school bag in the belly of his desk when he noticed something inside. On closer inspection, it was a box of Godiva chocolates.

This brand of chocolate was rather classy, and wasn’t cheaply priced. There were only a few pieces in a box but it cost a few hundred yuan.

The school he attended was the most well-known elite school in the capital. Most of the children who studied here were children of wealthy families. They had daily pocket money equivalent to an ordinary worker’s monthly salary. It was only natural that they could afford such expensive chocolates.

Youyou stared blankly at the chocolate, wondering who had sneaked it into the belly of his desk.

His desk mate, Qing’er, returned to her seat. She blushed when she saw the boy holding the box of chocolate in his hand, but said nothing. She sat upright in her seat and held up a book to hide her flushed face.

Youyou glanced in her direction and noticed that she was holding her book upside down, looking guilty. At once, he understood.
