The boys and girls played for about ten days, and then the day came when their parents urged them to go back.

School will start in half a month, so they need to prepare for the start of school in advance. Cheng Si sent them out that day, and everyone said goodbye to the town reluctantly and got on the car.

Before leaving, Yu Jiajia said to Cheng Si shyly, "Cheng Si, can I hug you for a moment?" Then she smiled and said, "If you mind, then I won't hug you."

Young girls are always in love. Yu Jiajia has been classmates with Cheng Si for so long, and she has liked him for so long, but after spending some time together.

The girls who came with her tried to match them up intentionally or unintentionally, but she could see that Cheng Si had no interest in her at all. She was a sensible girl and knew that the other person didn't like her, so she had already tried her best to get him to like her.

I will not continue to force others, I just want to put an end to this love that ended in vain.

Cheng Si didn't say anything, he just walked up to the girl, gave her a light hug, and patted her shoulder.

Yu Jiajia sniffed, held back her tears, said thank you, then turned and walked towards the team waiting for her.

Cheng Si watched them get on the car, waved, and turned to walk in the opposite direction.

Cheng Si felt a little lonely when he returned to the cabin. After spending some time with them, he was used to the hustle and bustle. The gap from the hustle and bustle to the deserted environment was too strong.

The old lady also said, "Your classmates were really lively here, but now they have all gone back. It's become much quieter here now."

Cheng Si nodded, as if he remembered something, "Grandma, come back to the city with me before school starts." Cheng Si knew that the old lady would not be used to staying in the city all the time, so he thought of taking her for a check-up before school started. He didn't know when the old lady fell ill in her previous life.

But it's better to take precautions in advance. The old lady was very easy to talk to. She just thought that Cheng Si had been here for too long and was not used to going back, so she agreed.

Cheng Si stayed in the town for a few more days, then took the old lady back to the city. On the day of returning to the city, Cheng Si wanted to call a taxi, but no one took the order, so he had no choice but to take the bus.

The car bumped all the way back to the city. Cheng Si held the old lady close and carried all the things he brought. The other passengers said to the old lady enviously, "You are so lucky to have such a sensible grandson."

The old lady agreed with a smile.

After Cheng Si returned, he rested for a day and persuaded the old lady to go to the hospital with him for a full body check-up.

Cheng Si registered in advance and took the old lady to the hospital. His parents knew about this, but they didn't say anything and gave Cheng Si some money.

All the indicators of the old lady's physical examination were normal, so Cheng Si finally felt relieved. On the day the old lady returned, Cheng Si wanted to send her back.

The old lady didn't agree, so I had no choice but to call a good car for her and told her not to work too hard and to rest whenever she needed.

The old lady felt that Cheng Si was a little too nervous, but she still agreed verbally.

When Cheng Si had only a few days left before school started, his parents finally came back. Cheng Si insisted on staying in Nancheng, and the two parents couldn't persuade him, so they came back to talk to him.

In the living room, Cheng Yi sat on the sofa with a pale face and unclear emotions. "Cheng Si, tell me what your plans are." This was a very cold father.

Cheng Si understood what he meant by asking, and gave him a convincing reason, and calmly replied, "No. 1 Middle School has dormitories, I can live on campus, and as for the weekends..." Cheng Si paused before saying, "You are busy with work, so you may not be able to see each other."

"Are you angry with us, blaming us for not caring enough about you?" His mother frowned, her face a little sad, "We did care less about you, but we didn't treat you badly in terms of food, clothing, shelter and transportation."

Hearing this, Cheng Si shook his head and said, "You are very good, but I can take care of myself. Changing my study environment will have a great impact on my study and life. Even if I go to another city with you now, I have to come back after the exam, which will also affect my college entrance examination. Grandma also needs someone to take care of her."

Cheng Si expressed his thoughts with reason and evidence. He had no complaints against his parents. Ever since the neighbor told Cheng Si about the time he was locked out because he forgot his keys when he was a child, the parents started to pay attention to Cheng Si and would ask an aunt to clean and cook for him on weekends.

Cheng Si likes to eat at Aunt Zhou's house. They also gave some money to Grandpa Zhang's family and gave them gifts during the holidays to thank them for taking care of Cheng Si. The pocket money given to Cheng Si is a lot among his peers, and he can buy anything he needs directly. They really take care of everything in terms of financial situation.

After hearing what Cheng Si said, Cheng Yi's face was rarely touched and he curled his lips. His son had matured a lot. He looked at Cheng Si's calm and frank expression and stopped his wife who was about to speak, "You have thought it through. I agree with your idea."

Cheng Si thanked him upon hearing this. His mother glared at Cheng Yi and said helplessly, "Since both of you are like this, what else can I say?"

Yu Yanqing waved her hand and asked Cheng Si to sit a little closer, and Cheng Si went over obediently.

She looked at Cheng Si carefully, reached out and touched Cheng Si's head, her expression softened a little, "My son has grown up so fast, and I have nothing to do these days. Can I play with you for a few days before school starts?"

"Okay," Cheng Si's voice was a little hoarse. He looked at his mother. Although he didn't show it on his face, he was still touched in his heart. He had a falling out with his family in his previous life, and it has been a long time since he had such a warm moment with his parents.

As for Yu Yanqing, she didn't know why she felt inexplicably distressed for Cheng Si since she came back last time. She was entangled in the fact that she didn't care enough about Cheng Si, so she wanted to make up for it now. Her voice softened, "Cheng Cheng, let Dad take you out for a good meal tonight. You look so thin and pale now. It's obvious that you haven't gotten enough nutrition."

Cheng Si nodded and said okay.

Ms. Yu asked again, "Do you like Cantonese food? How about I take you to eat Cantonese food?"

Cheng Si was like a good and obedient child at this moment, saying yes to everything he was asked.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, Cheng Si followed his parents to a very private Cantonese restaurant. The items and environment in the restaurant were very distinctive; blue and white porcelain tableware, mahogany furniture, porcelain sculptures, etc. created a classical and elegant atmosphere of the restaurant. The soft music playing in the hall was in harmony with the environment, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere.

Yu Yanqing booked a small private room, and the three of them ate their meal in a quite cozy atmosphere. "Try this," she said, picking up dishes for Cheng Si several times.

"Let him eat whatever he wants. What kind of person is he at such a age?" Father Cheng said with disdain upon seeing this.

Yu Yanqing glared at him and put a piece of fat into his bowl, "Eat your meal and stop talking." Her expression was a little dissatisfied.

Cheng Yi, who was always strict and did what he said, didn't dare to say anything now. He knew that she was still angry about letting Cheng Si stay here alone.

Yu Yanqing ignored Cheng Yi and continued chatting with Cheng Si. "Mom thought about it. You live in school during the week and go to your aunt's house on weekends. Our house is far from No. 1 Middle School, and it's troublesome to run back and forth. Do you think it's okay?"

Cheng thought for a moment and refused, "It's too much trouble. I can take care of myself."

"What's good about that? It wasn't me who suggested this. It was your aunt who said it. It just so happens that your cousin is also in his senior year at No. 1 Middle School, so he can be taken care of. I can rest assured that you are alone at home. If you don't agree, go and talk to your aunt yourself."

Cheng Si didn't have much contact with his aunt. He had only met her a few times during the holidays, but he knew that she was a powerful elder who was very eloquent. If anyone said something unpleasant in front of her, she would make that person speechless.

If he really faced her, Cheng Si would not be able to resist at all, so he had no choice but to agree.

After dinner, Cheng Si probably drank too much water and wanted to go to the bathroom.

It was such a coincidence that when Cheng Si passed the smoking area near the bathroom, he met an unexpected person. The person had one arm resting on the railing of the corridor. He was tall and had long legs. In the other hand, he held a cigarette butt and was puffing out smoke.

This was the first time Cheng Si saw this man smoking. He was wearing a black shirt today with two or three buttons unbuttoned on his chest. His hair was a little longer than before, covering his sharp eyebrows.

At this moment, he was leaning sideways against a pillar, just taking a puff of cigarette, and at the moment he blew out the smoke ring, he raised his head and glanced at Cheng Si, his eyes were blurred and meaningful, like a nobleman playing in the world.

He turned his head away again after just a moment. Cheng Si's heart skipped a beat when he looked at her, and his palms were sweating with nervousness. Fortunately, he looked away after just a moment. Cheng Si came to his senses and walked past him nervously.

Cheng Si was still nervous when he came out of the toilet and passed that road. Fortunately, he didn't see the man again when he arrived at the lobby. While Cheng Si breathed a sigh of relief, he also complained about his own lack of success.

There was clearly nothing wrong, but why did I feel like I was seeing a ferocious beast every time I saw Jin Li?

There was actually nothing to avoid just now. Jin Li didn't seem to intend to pay any attention to him. But at this moment Cheng Si was a little dazed. The Jin Li he saw at first glance was a little different from the Jin Li he met when he just came to the timeline. The Jin Li he just met was more like him in college, with a bit of cold aggressiveness.

……

In a private room of a Cantonese restaurant, a group of people in elegant suits were sitting at the table. Among them, there was an old man with a beer belly who looked to be in his forties. He smiled when he saw Jin Li coming back, "Boss Jin, your son really looks like you when you were young."

Jin Weidong chuckled, "How is he like me? I'm always so careless and unruly."

"Hey, he's still a kid. He'll be mature and steady in two years. Look, he can help you with the company's affairs, right?" The man with a beer belly didn't take it seriously. When he said this, he thought of his son who was good for nothing and only knew how to spend money. He sighed, "My dear, your son is much better than any of my sons. He didn't study hard, and we sent him abroad, hoping that he would learn something at all after spending so much money. I'm so thankful. If I could change my son, I would want to trade it with you."

"It's the same in my family. We don't learn a lot either," other bosses nearby sighed in agreement.

"Hey, don't worry so much. The bridge will be straight when you reach the bow of the boat. You will naturally make progress when you grow up." Jin Weidong said comforting words and started chatting with these people about other topics.

Jin Li felt a little bored sitting here. He was used to this group of people's hypocrisy and he patiently answered the topics that occasionally mentioned himself.

The dinner lasted until very late. Jin Li made arrangements for the group of drunk bosses one by one, then returned to the box and asked the driver to take his father home.

Then he went to his friend's bar in a bored mood, sat at the bar and had a few drinks. When he was drunk and fell on the bar, the manager found him a relatively quiet box to sleep in. He had been having strange dreams recently and his sleep quality was poor, so he could only relieve it by having a hangover.
