I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 183 He has an eccentric personality; it's hard to say what he's thinking.

Yin Mengran was surprised because she had lived with Zhou Heng for so long, and her mother had met her twice already.

But Zhou Heng's father never showed up, nor did he even make a single phone call...

Sometimes, I even wondered if Zhou Heng and his father had a falling out, which was why they weren't talking to each other.

Otherwise, as father and son, why wouldn't they make a single phone call every four or five months?

"call..."

Zhou Heng let out a breath, then put down everything in his hands, wiped his hands, and picked up his phone.

"Hello? Dad."

"[Are you at your aunt's house?]"

A very magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone. It was impossible to guess the owner's age; any age seemed plausible.

Yin Mengran moved closer, wanting to eavesdrop...

Although eavesdropping seemed a bit inappropriate, she was still curious... what kind of person was Zhou Heng's father...?

Just by listening to her voice, you might be able to guess her personality, whether she's a friendly person, and whether she'll agree to her relationship with Zhou Heng...

Now that Zhou Heng's mother has agreed, it's still unknown what his father thinks...

"Yes, we're here. Where are you and Mom? Have you gone home?"

"Then I'm relieved. Your mom and I haven't gone home yet, and we don't plan to go home today either."

"Oh, I see, another trip is coming up."

Zhou Heng shook his head helplessly. He had guessed it would be like this, which was why he wasn't going home; there would be no one there anyway...

My parents went to have fun long ago without me, and I didn't want to go either.

He'd be fine going out with Yin Mengran, but with his parents? No way, he's not interested.

"【Okay, be a good boy/girl, don't cause trouble for your aunt and uncle. I heard about your situation from your mother. Study hard next semester, and come home after the college entrance exam. I have something to tell you.】"

Zhou Heng's father's voice was very clear and steady, as if speaking didn't affect his breathing.

Zhou Heng seemed to be used to it, and responded calmly:

"Okay, got it."

Then, the person on the other end didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.

While Zhou Heng was on the phone, everyone else remained still, as if they were all waiting for him to finish the call.

"Big brother called? What's up?" Zhou Yalan put down her work and asked Zhou Heng.

"They made a direct agreement with me about what would happen after the college entrance exam. They told me to come home after the exam and let them know if anything happened. Honestly... it's still half a year away, I don't know why they're in such a rush..."

Zhou Heng shook his head as he tidied up, looking quite speechless.

Zhou Yalan and Tang Chengyi exchanged a glance at that moment, their eyes widening slightly.

"Then... you must do well on your college entrance exam and get good results," Zhou Yalan said slowly to Zhou Heng.

"Well, don't worry, I will."

The group worked together quickly, and everything was ready before noon.

Now you can relax and have some fun!

Zhou Heng and the others went to Tang Zhi's room to play games. They were all very happy to relax.

Yin Mengran was still thinking about Zhou Heng's father calling him, so she gently tugged at Zhou Heng's sleeve and asked:

"Dear... what kind of person is Dad? Would he... want me to be with you...?"

"what?"

Zhou Heng paused for a moment, then pondered Yin Mengran's question.

Then, he pursed his lips, shook his head, and answered:

"I don't know. He has an eccentric personality. I can't explain what he's thinking. I can't fathom his thoughts."

"what..."

Yin Mengran was somewhat puzzled, and at the same time began to worry.

According to Zhou Heng, he wasn't sure what would happen. What if they really disagreed with them?

Zhou Heng glanced back at Yin Mengran, seemingly noticing her worry, and chuckled softly, comforting her:

"Okay, don't worry. My mom makes the decisions in my family. She likes you so much, what are you worried about?"

"Really?"

Yin Mengran's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Zhou Heng with a delighted expression.

"Really? Don't worry, even if they all disagree, I can't break up with you."

"it is good!"

"Tsk tsk, these two are really close. Why don't you take a look at the game first? I've been playing 1v2 for ages..."

Tang Zhi murmured from the side, her tone tinged with helplessness and dissatisfaction.

Zhou Heng quickly realized that he was still playing games with Tang Zhi...

Tang Zhi had been idling in place for ages; her controller was practically smoking from rubbing it so much...

"Ah, sorry."

The three of them took turns playing games, and when they got tired, they would play cards or mobile games together on the bed.

In the evening, the New Year's Eve dinner will begin.

After dark, the streets were brightly lit, and fireworks even started going off.

Although fireworks and firecrackers are now banned, some areas are not strictly enforcing the rules, and management personnel often turn a blind eye.

After all, it's the Lunar New Year, and nobody wants to cause trouble. It's better to avoid unnecessary problems and just want to have a good holiday.

The festive atmosphere of the Chinese New Year was immediately apparent, with every household filled with the joy of reunion.

"Come on, Zhou Heng! Have a drink with your uncle!"

Tang Chengyi took out a bottle of baijiu from the liquor cabinet, opened it without hesitation, and prepared to pour a drink for Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng glanced at it and immediately realized that the wine was quite valuable...

However, it's quite normal to drink well during the Chinese New Year, so Zhou Heng didn't say anything more.

"Okay, Uncle."

Zhou Heng quickly stood up, took the wine glass with both hands, and accepted the drink.

After pouring a glass for Zhou Heng, he poured one for himself, and then poured another glass for Zhou Yalan.

"Honey, you've worked so hard."

"Hey, you've had a tough time too."

Zhou Yalan smiled and said.

"Do you want some? Xiao Mengran, Tang Zhi?"

Tang Chengyi looked at Yin Mengran and Tang Zhi and asked them if they wanted some drinks.

Tang Zhi waved her hand and said, "I won't drink it. Drinking will affect my operation..."

"this..."

Yin Mengran gave an awkward laugh. The mention of drinking reminded her of last night, when she and Zhou Heng drank too much.

Her headache finally subsided by noon today...

If she and Zhou Heng were alone at home, it would be fine; they could just drink.

But she was at Tang Zhi's house, and she felt embarrassed to drink. What if she drank too much?

If I suddenly started crying here, or acted like a drunkard, I'd be incredibly embarrassing...

"Ah...no, I won't drink it, Uncle."

"That's fine then. You guys have your drinks. Tang Zhi, go get them from the fridge."

"it is good."

Yin Mengran and Tang Zhi poured the drinks. Then, Tang Chengyi raised his glass, looked at the three people in front of him, and said:

"Happy Chinese New Year! You three are all good kids. I wish you all a bright future and great success. Cheers!"
