The next morning, Shen Nian didn't wake up early as planned.
When she came downstairs, Shen Nian found the entire Chu Family already gathered in the living room. Even Chu Lingxiu was watching her descent with a teasing look on her face.
Shen Nian's face flushed, and she discreetly pinched Lu Cheng, who was standing beside her. 'If it weren't for him last night,' she thought, 'there's no way I would have woken up this late!'
"Xiao Nian, Lu Cheng, you're up! Come, have some breakfast."
"Thank you, Aunt Lan."
Shen Nian gave Gao Ruolan a grateful smile and went to help her and Sister Zhang with the breakfast preparations, trying to ease her embarrassment.
"Xiao Nian, Lu Cheng, what are your plans for today?"
"Ah Cheng's leave isn't long. We plan to buy a few things in a bit and then head back."
There were still two days left in the weekend, so Shen Nian could have waited until Sunday night to go back to school.
"Alright, be careful on your way then."
"Mm, we will."
