Zhuang Xinchun froze at the door of Class 2, looking at Chi Le and Sheng Zhuo in the classroom in disbelief, the morning sun shone on them, one of them was sitting and the other standing, with unconcealable smiles in their eyes and he was so far away from them that he couldn’t hear what they were saying.

Zhuang Xinchun’s eyes were darkened, his expression was gloomy, he had only been away from school for half a month, but the relationship between Chi Le and Sheng Zhuo seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes, at least in the past, Chi Le would never be so calm standing in front of Sheng Zhuo.

Zhuang Xinchun stared at Sheng Zhuo for a while, then walked back to class 3 next door with a gloomy face, changing from his usual gentleness and kindness, even ignoring the classmates who greeted him along the way.



Because Sheng Zhuo promised to teach him, Chi Le was very happy all day, and even his voice when reciting the text was louder than usual.

Sheng Zhuo listened quietly for a while and found that Chi Le was actually quite fast at reciting things.

It has been a while since Sheng Zhuo moved here to sit. As far as he observed, Chi Le usually listens carefully in class, has a good attitude, and works very hard. Sheng Zhuo always felt that it was a little strange that his grades kept going up and down.

As soon as the school bell rang, Chi Le dragged Sheng Zhuo and rushed out of the school gate, and even helped Sheng Zhuo carry his school bag with a particularly good attitude, fearing that the ‘Master’ he finally obtained would fly away.

Fang Younian, influenced by Zhuang Xinchun’s persuasion, originally intended to invite Sheng Zhuo after school to welcome Zhuang Xinchun and have a meal together. However, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of Class 2, he saw Chi Le and Sheng Zhuo swiftly pass by like a gust of wind. Before he could even blink, they had already rushed down the stairs.

He opened his mouth and looked back, Zhuang Xinchun’s face had turned to ashes.

Fang Younian didn’t know what Zhuang Xinchun was thinking, he just patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: “It seems that Sheng Zhuo doesn’t have time, let’s go by ourselves?”

Zhuang Xinchun managed to force out a smile and looked at Fang Younian and the classmates following behind them with a troubled expression. “I suddenly remembered that my mom asked me to come home earlier tonight. It seems like my grandma isn’t feeling well…”

Everyone hurriedly said: “Then you go back quickly, we will meet again some other day.”

Fang Younian gave Zhuang Xinchun a slightly surprised look. Didn’t he take the initiative to ask him to have a get-together just now and asked him to bring his friends from the next class with him? Why did he suddenly change his mind?

Chi Le didn’t let go of Sheng Zhuo’s hand all the way and led him across the playground as if no one else was there. The students along the road looked at them curiously, and when Sheng Zhuo got into the car with him, Chi Le put his heart back into his stomach and had to make sure Sheng Zhuo won’t regret it.

Uncle Li looked back at them, smiled, and asked, “Where are the young master and the student going?”

He could see clearly just now that his young master was holding the hand of his little classmate, and his little classmate also let the young master hold hands!

Chi Le thought about it carefully and asked Uncle Li to send them to the basketball court from last time. After all, although the place is a bit dilapidated, it is just enough. There are usually no people around, so there is no need to fight for the basketball court. This is suitable for Chi Le’s current level, so he doesn’t have to be afraid of being laughed at.

Chi Le was in high spirits all the way, talking non-stop. Sheng Zhuo listened silently and responded with a few words from time to time. He noticed Uncle Li’s ambiguous gaze and thought it was a bit funny, so he didn’t remind Chi Le that his driver might be misunderstanding.

When the two came to the basketball court, Chi Le walked over with the basketball in his arms, and suddenly remembered when he saw the basketball hoop, “By the way, the final exam is coming soon, will it delay your review?”

Sheng Zhuo is the top student, if his ranking falls back, it will affect the average score of their class. If that happens then won’t he become the sinner of the whole class?

“Then I’ll go back now?” Sheng Zhuo deliberately teased him, as if he was about to turn around and leave, Chi Le quickly grabbed him.

“Don’t, don’t…” Chi Le hesitated, “Why don’t we practice for an hour a day first, and then practice more after the exam is over? Anyway, there is still a month before the competition, and we can practice again after the winter vacation.”

Sheng Zhuo thought about it seriously, “I’m afraid it won’t work, I’m going to winter camp during this winter vacation.”

Chi Le was taken aback, “The top student still has to attend the winter camp?”

Sheng Zhuo reached out and pressed his head, “What does participating in the winter camp have to do with being a top student?”

“But we will be in our seniors next year. How can one go to winter camp at this time?”

“Fang Younian’s brother is starting a business recently. This winter camp is a project of his company. Fang Younian asked me and Chen Yunzhou to support his brother.” Sheng Zhuo shrugged slightly, “My mother happened to hear it, and signed up for me directly.”

In fact, it’s because He Zi thinks that Sheng Zhuo is too cold and wants him to integrate into the group, although Sheng Zhuo usually gets along well with his classmates and has a group of people surrounding him wherever he goes, He Zi thinks that when he looks at those classmates of his, it’s just like a bystander who watches kids fooling around, and it doesn’t have any of the tenderness and vigor that should be present in a child of his age, so she wants to let him play with his peers a little bit more.

After listening to his explanation, Chi Le understood that it was going in another direction. No wonder he was able to participate in the winter camp under the conditions of Sheng Zhuo’s family. It turned out that Fang Younian’s brother opened it, and it was probably a friendship price for Sheng Zhuo.

“Are you going abroad?” Chi Le asked.

“I heard that I was going abroad, but something happened later. It seemed that there was a problem with the connection, so I changed it to China, and it should be in this city.”

“Can you come out anytime?”

“Cannot.”

Chi Le was a little worried. If Sheng Zhuo was going to participate in the winter camp during the winter vacation, then Sheng Zhuo would only have half a month to teach him, and the time would be cut in half.

However, Chi Le didn’t have time to think about it and quickly devoted himself to practice.

Sheng Zhuo taught people very strictly. For the next hour, Chi Le didn’t even have a minute to rest. He first practiced dribbling for ten minutes then the rules of basketball, and finally began to teach him how to shoot.

Chi Le tried a few times and still failed to make a shot. Although it was a little better than yesterday, at least the basketball could touch the hoop, and he almost made it twice. Unfortunately, the ball spun twice in the basket and still missed.

Chi Le pursed his lower lip regretfully, and looked back at Sheng Zhuo, feeling a little discouraged, “Could it be that this Young Master is not a genius?”

Yes, he’s not a genius at best, and he won’t admit that he doesn’t have the talent to play basketball.

“I don’t know if you’re a genius, but you don’t need to be a genius to play basketball.” Sheng Zhuo suppressed a smile, and walked over to put him in the right posture, “You just didn’t find the right feeling, just find the right feeling.”

Sheng Zhuo tapped his waist, instructing him to straighten it, then adjusted his shoulders, encouraging him to relax them. Finally, he lifted his arms, guiding them from behind and moving them twice to help him experience the shooting angle he usually takes.

Behind Chi Le was Sheng Zhuo’s warm chest, and his ears slowly turned red.

Sheng Zhuo wasn’t wearing a basketball uniform today, instead, he had on the school uniform. After getting heated up from playing basketball, he directly took off the outer school uniform, leaving only a black turtleneck sweater underneath. He rolled up the sleeves slightly, revealing his strong arms. There was an inexplicable sense of restrained elegance emanating from him. When he held the basketball in his hands, there was an indescribable allure.

Chi Le was a little absent-minded, listening to the instructions taught by Sheng Zhuo in his ears, but his eyes couldn’t help but move across his Adam’s apple, which was slightly sweaty and rolled up and down when he spoke.

“Try it.”

Sheng Zhuo’s cold voice rang in Chi Le’s ears, Chi Le suddenly came back to his senses, maintained the posture just now, and subconsciously threw the basketball.

Bang——

Chi Le watched in disbelief as the basketball passed through the hoop, fell to the ground with a bang, and went in!

He cheered happily and jumped up happily.

The corner of Sheng Zhuo’s mouth curled up inadvertently, and he picked up the basketball for him after he was overexcited, and threw it to him in the air, “Just continue to shoot according to the feeling just now.”

Chi Le looked for his feeling and excitedly continued to shoot a few balls. This time the gains were great, and he was able to hit one shot every now and then.

An hour passed by, and Chi Le was immersed in excitement, experiencing the joy of playing basketball for the first time.

He was actually envious of those who played basketball when he was very young, but unfortunately, he was not in good health at that time, and Chi Jindong didn’t let him touch the ball at all.

Chi Le happily hugged the ball and was very grateful to Sheng Zhuo in his heart. He felt that with Sheng Zhuo teaching him, he could improve much faster than he could alone. “Sheng Zhuo, I invite you to dinner!”

Without waiting for Sheng Zhuo to reply, he pulled Sheng Zhuo outside, “Jian Cheng is working near here today, let’s eat at his place.”

When Sheng Zhuo heard Jian Cheng’s name, he turned around when he didn’t move, “You and Jian Cheng have a good relationship?”

Chi Le nodded without hesitation, “We have been in the same class since kindergarten, and we even wreaked havoc in the last years of kindergarten together.”

“You… are friends?”

“What else can it be if it’s not friends.” Not only did Chi Le not find it strange that he asked this question, but he waved his hand, and said simply: “But we are not just friends!”

Sheng Zhuo’s face darkened, and the corners of his mouth were pressed down.

Chi Le smiled at him without realizing it, and blinked mysteriously, “I’ll tell you secretly, actually… we have a father-son relationship! Ever since Jian Cheng lost to me in our kindergarten fight, he has recognized me as a dad! It’s a pity that he won’t call me dad since high school.”

“…” Sheng Zhuo fell into complete silence.

Chi Le asked enthusiastically: “Do you know why I let Fang Younian call me Grandpa if he lost?”

Only then did Sheng Zhuo, who knew about the bet, was silent for a second, “Why?”

“Because Jian Cheng is my son!” Chi Le laughed, “I already have a son, so Fang Younian can only be my grandson.”

“…”

Sheng Zhuo felt that if Fang Younian knew about this, he would definitely regret the bet because if he lost, he would not only have a grandfather, but also a father.
