In the courtyard, everyone is afraid of the little boy who is so smart!

Cheng Erhua stood there, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead, his hands kept rubbing the corners of his clothes, his mouth stammering, those key words kept circling around his lips, but he couldn't say them out.

His eyes swept across everyone's faces in panic, then quickly moved away. His feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, and his body was trembling slightly.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, as if being pulled by an invisible thread, waiting with curiosity to see what he would say next.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and every passing second became extremely long.

Everyone's heart was hanging high because of his hesitant appearance, and they became anxious along with him.

Some people even unconsciously clenched their fists and leaned forward, as if this could help him get his words out.

In this suffocating and tense atmosphere, Yang Chan, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly stood up.

Her movements were a little abrupt, and the chair legs made a harsh sound as they scraped the ground.

She closed her eyes tightly, and her long eyelashes kept trembling, revealing her inner tension and anxiety.

His chest heaved violently due to his rapid breathing, like a frightened deer.

"I'm with Comrade Cheng Erhua, and we're a couple now."

Yang Chan's voice came out of her mouth as quickly as a string of cannonballs, as if the courage that had been accumulated for a long time burst out in an instant.

The sound broke the silence in the room and was like a flash of lightning, passing through everyone's hearts.

After all, she is still a young girl. After saying this, Yang Chan's face turned red instantly. The red was like a ripe apple, spreading from her cheeks to her ears.

She slowly opened her eyes, with a hint of timidity and shyness in her eyes, and carefully observed the changes in several people.

Everyone was stunned at first, then the corners of their mouths curled up, and a warm and kind smile bloomed on their faces, which was full of blessings and joy.

Immediately afterwards, crisp and warm applause rang out in the house, like a warm current, instantly dispelling the uneasiness in Yang Chan's heart.

Surprisingly, there was no surprise on anyone's face, as if all this was within their expectations.

Or perhaps they had already caught traces of love from the two people's daily interactions, and at this moment they were simply sincerely happy that this beautiful relationship could be made public.

At this time, Li Xinyan put down the chopsticks in her hand, gently wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, with a meaningful smile on her face, and said leisurely:

"Oh, actually, we all noticed it a long time ago, and we were all wondering if you two were just friends."

She turned her head slightly and looked at the people around her, and everyone nodded in agreement.

"It's just that you guys haven't said anything yet, and we're too embarrassed to ask, so we're just waiting for you to announce the good news yourself."

After hearing this, Yang Chan was slightly stunned, with a look of confusion on her face.

Her big watery eyes opened wider, and her clear eyes were filled with curiosity and surprise.

"How did you know that?"

Her voice was soft yet a little anxious.

"I really haven't told anyone, not even my own parents. I haven't had the chance to tell them yet."

As she spoke, she unconsciously smoothed the hair around her ears with her hands, and her eyes revealed a hint of nervousness, as if she was worried that there might be some flaw in her relationship with Cheng Erhua.

Li Xinyan couldn't help laughing when she saw Yang Chan's cute and innocent look. She raised her eyebrows, a sly look flashed in her eyes, and she said mysteriously:

"As the saying goes, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it. We have seen all the little movements and looks you two make on a daily basis."

She tapped the tabletop lightly with her fingers, as if recalling the details.

"Sometimes the care and tacit understanding revealed unintentionally can't deceive people."

Shen Chunhua sat aside with a mischievous smile on his face. He leaned forward slightly, with his arms casually resting on the table, and his fingers tapping lightly on the table, making a rhythmic "tapping" sound.

She looked at Yang Chan, whose face was flushed, and then at Cheng Erhua, who was standing there in a slightly embarrassed manner, and said with a smile:

"Xinyan, please stop teasing her. Everyone knows the truth about this matter."

Shen Chunhua paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to Cheng Erhua, with a smile in his eyes that became even more intense:

"Take these few days for example. Erhua has been coming to your place every day. Whenever he has free time, he follows you around and helps you with your work. We have all seen how diligent he is."

After hearing this, the people around nodded, with a tacit smile on their faces, and some people even laughed softly, making the already lively atmosphere even more cheerful.

"And,"

Shen Chunhua continued, his eyes sparkling and full of teasing.

"Erhua usually looks quite clever, but when he's around you, he becomes tongue-tied. You have to try to come up to him and find some topics to talk about even if you have nothing to do."

"Even if we just chat about the weather or whether we are busy today, we still can't bear to leave."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. The laughter echoed in the room, making Cheng Erhua's face even redder.

Cheng Erhua stood there, feeling his face burning, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

He glanced secretly and timidly at Wang Jianguo who was sitting in the first seat, only to see a faint smile on Wang Jianguo's face, without any sign of anger or dissatisfaction. He felt slightly relieved.

He scratched his head and stammered:

"Am I...am I that obvious?"

The sound was as small as the hum of a mosquito, causing everyone to laugh in good faith again.

Wang Jianguo was originally holding a wine glass, but after hearing Cheng Erhua's silly question, he couldn't help but put down the glass, raised his head, and looked straight at Cheng Erhua.

An expression that was both angry and amused appeared on his face, the corners of his mouth turned down slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he quickly rolled his eyes at Cheng Erhua.

The way he rolled his eyes was just right, with a little more of his eyeballs showing, and his eyelids drooping a little, showing his pretended anger to the fullest.

"What do you think?"

Wang Jianguo spoke with a hint of teasing and ridicule in his voice, breaking the brief laughter in the room.

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and tapped the air lightly, as if to emphasize his point:

"We often say that bystanders see more clearly. The things between you and Yang Chan are like words written on your face, very clear."
