Chapter 744 2 Not Confused 4
When Mr. Zhou saw the person come down, he said, "You got up a little late today. Hurry up and eat."
"it is good."
"Why are you taking a shower so early in the morning?" Zhou's father looked up and noticed that Zhou Xun's hair was still a little wet.
Zhou Xun paused slightly in his chopsticks and casually said, "I turned off the air conditioner early last night, and I was covered in sweat when I woke up this morning."
Don't take a shower immediately after sweating, or you might catch a cold.
"know."
As the two were talking, they heard voices coming from next door.
"What are the Meng family doing so early in the morning? I'll go see." Mr. Zhou picked up his bowl, got up, and went out.
Zhou Xun glanced outside, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't go out to look.
A short while later, he heard the sound of a car starting up outside.
Mr. Zhou also came back and sat down to continue eating breakfast: "The family next door went to the street today. Is there anything you want to buy? I have time later, and I can take you shopping."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun shook his head: "No."
"Don't stay cooped up in your room all day reading and doing homework. You need to make sure you get enough rest."
"I know."
Mr. Zhou sighed inwardly. His son was becoming increasingly quiet and kept everything to himself. He was worried that his son was under too much pressure at such a young age.
“You went next door yesterday and didn’t come back until almost dinner time. That’s good. Try to visit your neighbors more often when you have time.”
Zhou Xun thought about the dream he had last night and decided it was best not to go next door for the time being, but he didn't say it aloud and just gave a casual reply.

"Dad, I'm going into the school now. Drive carefully back home," Meng Yubei said, getting out of the car and turning back.
Mr. Meng smiled and waved to her: "Go on, and remember to call your parents if anything happens."
"Ok, bye."
The new semester has started. Meng Yubei will be a senior in high school this fall. She is three years older than Meng Yinan, who will be a junior in middle school.
She needed to bring her things to the school dormitory, and her family came to help deliver them to her dorm this afternoon. She just went home for dinner and came back again.
Not long after entering the school gate, Meng Yubei heard footsteps behind him. He casually turned around and saw that it was Zhou Xun.
She had originally intended to say hello, but unexpectedly, after Zhou Xun glanced at her, he suddenly looked away, as if pretending not to see her.
Since that was the case, Meng Yubei didn't bother to say hello and simply turned around and continued walking inside.
Later, Zhou Xun saw her turn around and then looked up and breathed a sigh of relief.
The ten days or so before school started were quite embarrassing. He had three dreams about her, and they were all erotic dreams.
This was the first time he had such a dream at this age, and it was related to the way he saw her when he went to the Meng family that day, which made him afraid to go there again.

Meng Yubei walked into her newly assigned dormitory and began to organize her belongings.
The dormitory was a six-person room, and she still chose an upper bunk according to her preference.
The bed sheets and duvet covers had already been laid out when her parents brought her things over; all she had to do was tidy up some miscellaneous items.
"Ayu, have you had dinner yet? After you pack your things, do you want to go to the cafeteria for something to eat?" asked Zhang Xin, her roommate and best friend.
"I ate at home before coming."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xin looked regretful and said, "Oh? I should have eaten before coming. I didn't want to go to the cafeteria alone."
Looking at her round, white face, her brows furrowed like a steamed bun, Meng Yubei said in a good mood, "How about I go with you?"
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to make the trip. I'll just have some bread."
"also."
On the first day of the new semester, everyone rushed to school for evening self-study.
After packing their things in the dormitory, they went to the classroom together.
This time, seating was assigned based on grades. Their class consisted of top students, a total of thirty-five people, who were the top thirty-five in the grade.
So, Meng Yubei sat in the first seat of the row by the window in the classroom.
Zhou Xun was right behind her. She wondered if his height would affect the students behind him from seeing the blackboard.
However, the classroom is large, there aren't many people, and the spacing is wide, so it shouldn't have much of an impact.
There are only seven students in each vertical row, and there are a total of five vertical rows. Zhang Xin is ranked eighth in the grade.
She sat in the first seat of the second row, next to Meng Yubei. The two turned their heads, looked at each other, and smiled.
Zhou Xun could see Meng Yubei's back as soon as he looked up; he hadn't expected the seating arrangement to be like this this semester.

The year of junior high school passed quickly. The learning atmosphere in Meng Yubei's class was particularly strong. Everyone was engrossed in studying.
She could only follow the crowd and adopt a serious attitude towards studying, but in reality, she was still quite relaxed.
Only when she goes home on weekends does she have time to relax completely, and she definitely won't read books or do homework until the last minute.
Zhou Xun unconsciously noticed Meng Yubei. Seeing how serious she was at school, he felt that her relaxed attitude at home was a good balance between work and rest.
He reflected on himself and felt that he could learn from her learning method; being too tense was not good either.
Study hard when it's time to study, and relax appropriately when it's time to relax.

"Sis, which university are you planning to go to, and what major are you going to choose?"
With just over two months left until the college entrance examination, Meng Yinan casually asked her sister a question while at home on a weekend.
Meng Yubei glanced at him: "Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"It's not sudden, I just care about you."
"If you don't believe me, you wouldn't use such a serious tone when you care about me."
"Am I really that unbelievable when I'm serious?" Meng Yinan touched his face, somewhat doubtful.
Meng Yubei raised an eyebrow: "What do you think?"
"Okay, actually I'm concerned too, but I'm not the only one who wants to ask."
"And your parents?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Yunan smiled and held up a finger, looking quite mischievous.
"Not only that, but also Brother Zhou Xun. Mom and Dad were afraid of putting pressure on you, so they kept holding back from asking. Brother Zhou Xun was probing indirectly, without asking directly, hehe."
"So you're a genius, coming here to be their vanguard?" Meng Yubei couldn't help but laugh when she saw his expression.
My parents have been paying extra attention to me lately, worried that I'm under too much pressure.
Zhou Xun? He still seems to be the same as always, expressionless and quiet. The two of them haven't spoken much to each other.
But she still noticed that his gaze would linger on her.
It wasn't obvious when we were face to face, and he rarely initiated conversations with me.
But they sat at desks in front of and behind each other at school, and she was very sensitive to other people's gazes, so she knew that he paid a lot of attention to her.
In the senior year of high school, seating was also assigned based on grades, and their rankings never changed, so the two of them sat at adjacent desks for two years.
"As your dearest younger brother, of course I want to be the first to know your plans, sister," Meng Yinan said with a grin.
