When Will My Childhood Sweetheart Marry Me?-Chapter 137: Just Keep Your Boyfriend in Check

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Just Keep Your Boyfriend in Check

According to the usual practice over the years, the provincial college entrance examination scores are often released within half a month after the exam.

Ever since Pei Yan got depressed from checking the answer key last time, he never allowed Jiang Shuyao to touch that answer key again.

In the remaining days, Pei Yan took her on aimless strolls around Rong City under the guise of building affection, but in reality, it was just someone’s innate restlessness acting up.

As Chen Jin put it, Brother Yan wasn’t single anymore, not as carefree as before, and going out without bringing his girlfriend along would mean he’d definitely be kneeling on durians when he got back.

Jiang Shuyao was both annoyed and amused, what twisted logic. She never restricted that bastard’s freedom; he could go wherever he wanted, as long as he didn’t cause trouble, she’d be thankful.

The two were secretly together, still in the honeymoon phase of their romance, with the novelty and excitement at its peak.

These days, Pei Yan even wanted to tuck the little miss into his embrace while sleeping, let alone going out.

But with one preferring peace and the other action, it was indeed hard to plan their trips.

That’s when Xu Kanfeng jumped in with a suggestion, "How about we go on a self-driving tour to Jiuzhaigou to escape the heat?"

Jiuzhaigou is an excellent place to cool off, especially suitable for family excursions.

Four guys and one girl driving there would be somewhat odd.

Suddenly realizing something, Chen Jin whistled, "If Sister Yao feels lonely by herself, we can invite Fatty too, with her around, the journey will never be dull."

Fatty?

Jiang Shuyao briefly froze for a second before she caught on.

It was her first time hearing anyone call Tang Xing that.

She found it both amusing and distressing. Weren’t boys afraid of being unable to find a girlfriend in the future if they bluntly called girls fat?

As it turned out, her concerns were entirely unnecessary.

In front of them all, Chen Jin texted Tang Xing on WeChat, and in less than two seconds, she replied almost instantly.

Tang Xing was thrilled to bits, saying she almost grew moldy at home. Without a second thought, she happily agreed.

When Chen Jin called her Fatty, she didn’t react much, as if she had long been used to it.

Their back-and-forth amused Jiang Shuyao to the point of suppressing her laughter.

She couldn’t help but look questioningly at the person beside her. Pei Yan laid his hand lazily on top of the girl’s head and said in a languid voice, "Don’t mind others, just take care of your own boyfriend."

"..."

A mouthful of cola sprayed out from Xu Kanfeng.

"Brother Yan, can’t you consider the feelings of us single dogs a little?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

The two guys opposite joined the chorus of complaints, "Yeah, boss, how are we supposed to survive the trip to Jiuzhaigou with this going on?"

After graduation, a group of second-generation rich kids lacking the drive to strive seemed to revert back to their undisciplined days.

Pei Yan glanced over the three with an indifferent look, "Why should I feel obligated to consider your feelings? If you can’t stand it, go find a girl and date."

Chen Jin flipped his hair and snickered, "I wish I could, but the ones around are too fierce. I’m young; I’m afraid I couldn’t handle them."

After that, nobody continued the conversation.

It was only after the fact that Chen Jin realized, to his horror, that he had started telling raunchy jokes in front of Sister Yao.

Uh-oh.

He coughed twice, trying to think of how to steer the conversation back on track.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuyao, who seemed puzzled, spoke up, "You’re not that young, you can date after turning nineteen and going to university."

The focus of girls’ attention is always so unexpected.

The awkwardness instantly eased.

Before Chen Jin could speak, Pei Yan, sitting opposite, kicked him in the knee.

"Boss, my bad," Chen Jin said, holding his knee and wincing in pain.

Pei Yan rested his hand lazily on the back of the girl’s chair, not saying anything, as if the kick was just a playful jest.

The conversations among guys have no proper form, but his Yaoyao couldn’t listen to such things.

The current boss, when angered, was silent and terrifying, even more frightening than his previous violent outbreaks.

Aside from He Qingzhou who could barely handle it, Chen Jin and Xu Kanfeng would often be terrified to the point of daring not to breathe during such times.

Perhaps they forgot that even if Brother Yan wanted to lose his temper, he had to consider that Sister Yao was watching on the side.

After all, the boss had just started dating, so his heart was probably still soft.

The trip to Jiuzhaigou was scheduled for nine o’clock the next morning, with everyone meeting at the subway station near the ring road expressway.

A few days before, He Qingzhou just got his driving license and was still on his probation period, afraid to drive on the expressway, so he called another buddy from the circle to drive for him.

That buddy also took his girlfriend with him; the girl was lively, and together with Tang Xing, the journey was sure to be lively.

At eight o’clock, Jiang Shuyao packed a few clothes simply and went with her small suitcase to knock on Pei Yan’s door.

After entering, Pei Yan stood in the living room staring at her suitcase for a while, then questioned with slight doubt, "Isn’t it a bit small?"

Huh?

Jiang Shuyao looks down, "No, it’s not small at all, it fits just right."

He then turned and went into the storage room.

When he came back, he was dragging a suitcase twice the size of hers.

Jiang Shuyao sat on the sofa, dumbfounded, watching his sequence of showy moves.

The clothes she had neatly folded fell apart in the blink of an eye at his touch.

Pei Yan piled their clothes together and deftly stuffed everything into his bigger suitcase.

It wasn’t until his hand reached for the separation bag at the bottom of the suitcase that Jiang Shuyao couldn’t sit still anymore.

She hurriedly squatted down to block his move, her cheeks reddening as she said, "You’ve made a mess of the clothes, let me do it."

The separation bag contained her personal garments; did this guy have no common sense at all, to touch everything?

With her eyes lowered, the girl focused on reorganizing without looking at Pei Yan at all.

The man, with a smile on his lips, didn’t stand up, but squatted down next to her, watching as she carefully refolded the chaotic clothes.

In the end, the items from the separation bag had to be taken out.

But the guy beside her showed no intention of looking away.

Jiang Shuyao turned her head only to meet the intense gaze of the young man.

The two were very close, closer than the boundary of a safe distance.

In the silent exchange of looks, Pei Yan suddenly smiled and asked with interest, "Yaoyao, what were you thinking just now?"

Caught off guard by his question, Jiang Shuyao’s face began to heat up uncontrollably.

She turned her head back with feigned composure, "You check whether the gas and electrical mains are turned off, before we leave, we must pay attention to these safety hazards."

The girl was giving him tasks to send him away.

Pei Yan remained unmoved, smiling gently as he watched her.

At this moment, Chen Jin called, probably asking where the two of them were.

It was already late, and if they dallied any longer, they would struggle to leave by nine.

Actually, Pei Yan really didn’t know what was in that separation bag.

But seeing the girl’s exaggerated reaction, he couldn’t help being curious.

Thinking about it afterwards, he also realized what was going on.

Choosing not to tease her further, Pei Yan picked up his cell phone from the coffee table, pressed the answer button, and walked out onto the balcony.

This trip to Jiuzhaigou went smoother than imagined.

The biggest advantage of hanging out with a group of rich kids was that where money could be spent, they never relied on their brains to solve problems.

He Qingzhou was in charge of the entire trip’s finances, paying for everything upfront, and everyone would go Dutch after returning to Chengdu.

Tang Xing felt oddly unsettled, pulling on Jiang Shuyao’s sleeve and complaining with a whimper, "Look at them, they spend money like it’s nothing."

Some of the spending indeed seemed wasteful.

Jiang Shuyao looked towards the front desk with her eyes, reassuring the girl, "No worries, He Qingzhou is not short on cash, he will give us a discount later."
