Chapter 741 2 Not Confused 1
"Sis, I'm back!!" A cheerful voice came from afar.
Boys going through puberty don't really have very pleasant voices.
Unfortunately, the person involved seemed oblivious to their own limitations, shouting so loudly that the surrounding neighbors could probably hear them clearly.
"Sis, sis, sis, I've bought the ice cream you wanted." Meng Yinan rushed into the house from outside, carrying a bag and heading straight upstairs.
Meng Yubei turned around from her computer screen and saw her exceptionally energetic younger brother.
He's at that age where he's disliked by everyone and even dogs; he's either causing trouble or never home.
"Why are you shouting from so far away? Bring me the ice cream."
"Hehe, here it comes, sis, your favorite ice cream." Meng Yinan fawned over.
Meng Yubei took the ice cream and saw him looking at her expectantly. She pretended not to see it and slowly ate the ice cream.
Meng Yunan scratched his head and asked anxiously, "Sis, can I play some games on the computer?"
"If you're not going to eat the ice cream, put it in the freezer; it'll melt soon." Meng Yubei glanced at the bag full of ice cream but didn't answer his question.
"Okay, I'll put it in the refrigerator first."
Meng Yunan turned around and went downstairs. Normally, he would come back up immediately after putting his things down.
But Meng Yubei heard voices downstairs, probably from the neighbors coming over, so she didn't pay any attention and continued watching her drama on her computer while eating ice cream.
A short while later, Meng Yinan ran up again, her tone unusually cheerful: "Sis, Brother Zhou Xun wants to talk to you about something. He said he wants to ask you about your homework?"
If her sister goes to do her homework, then he can play on the computer, right?
Meng Yubei initially thought her younger brother was a bit noisy and wanted to ignore his voice while watching TV.
Hearing his words, she paused the TV series, finished the last bite of her ice cream, and then turned her chair around.
Two tall figures stood at the door. Meng Yunan would be starting junior high this fall, and behind him was Zhou Xun, who was half a head taller than him. Both of them were quite tall and growing very fast.
Zhou Xun was initially a little embarrassed as Meng Yinan enthusiastically pulled him upstairs.
But when he saw Meng Yubei, he felt even more embarrassed.
It's currently summer vacation, which is also the hottest time of the year, and summers in Guangdong are especially unbearably hot.
Meng Yubei always dresses quite casually at home. She has her hair in a bun, wearing a white tank top and shorts, and is sitting cross-legged in her computer chair.
Her snow-white skin, delicate collarbones, slender arms and legs, and long neck were all exposed.
Because of its well-developed shape and obvious curve in the front, it can easily arouse boys in puberty.
Moreover, when she looks at people with her clear, bright eyes, she appears exceptionally focused and earnest.
Even though the room was set to 16 degrees Celsius and had a comfortable coolness, Zhou Xun still felt a bit hot.
Seeing him standing there dumbfounded and silent, Meng Yubei had no choice but to speak up: "Zhou Xun, you were looking for me?"
"Brother Zhou Xun, my sister is asking you a question, why aren't you saying anything? Are you getting heatstroke?" Meng Yinan turned around in confusion.
This summer was exceptionally hot, and his parents strictly forbade him from going out and running around every day, for fear that he would suffer from heatstroke.
Several times after going out for a day, he would be scolded and beaten, which made him always remember his parents' warnings to avoid heatstroke.
Even if he doesn't go out to play, he can't stay idle, so he can only think about playing games on the computer.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xun looked away and came back to his senses: "Um, yes, I'm fine. I just came to ask what other assignments the teacher has given besides the summer homework, and I wanted to confirm with you."
Homework? Meng Yubei looked at the pile of untouched summer homework in the upper right corner of the computer desk, which included test papers, workbooks and the like.
Following her gaze, Zhou Xun also saw the pile of homework, which didn't seem to have been touched at all.
“I’ve taken notes on all the assignments. You can look them up yourself.” Meng Yubei rummaged through the drawer and pulled out a small notebook.
"Thank you." Zhou Xun took the notebook and then gently reminded him, "We still have two weeks until school starts."
After he finished speaking, he carefully flipped through the notebook, turned two pages, read the contents, memorized them, and then closed it.
Although Zhou Xun was looking at the notebook, he still wanted to hear what Meng Yubei had to say.
He never expected that Meng Yubei, who always ranked first in every exam at school and whom he imagined to be the kind of person who studied hard and made every second count, would be so relaxed in private.
Meng Yubei understood the implication in his words, but didn't take it to heart; there was no rush to do homework.
But she wasn't in a hurry; Meng Yinan was. If her sister didn't do her homework, how could he play games?
"Sis, there are still two weeks until school starts and you still haven't done your homework? It's perfect timing, Zhou Xun is here, you two can discuss it together."
After he finished speaking, he gave Zhou Xun a wink, "Hurry up and take my sister away; she's been hogging the computer all afternoon."
Zhou Xun watched and thought his facial expressions were too rich, but still said to Meng Yubei, "If you don't write it soon, the time may be tight."
Meng Yinan's purpose should not be too obvious. Meng Yubei, considering that there were outsiders present, decided to give his younger brother some face.
She exited the TV series and stood up: "I can only play for two hours."
Upon hearing this, Meng Yinan was initially delighted, but then habitually began to bargain: "Ah? Two hours is too short, let's add another hour."
Meng Yubei remained unmoved: "Mom and Dad will be back soon, and you don't want to get scolded, do you? If you don't want to play, then let's do our homework together."
It's only 1:30 pm now, and it will be 3:30 pm in two hours. My parents won't be back that early.
Meng Yinan pouted, feeling wronged but not daring to say, "I'll play, I'll play, two hours it is."
Two hours is better than nothing, Meng Yinan comforted herself.
After giving up his seat, Meng Yubei spoke to Zhou Xun: "I can write it myself, you..."
"I'm still unsure about the answers to a few questions, let's write them down together," Zhou Xun interrupted her.
He was curious about why he could never get first place and wanted to see how she studied and did her homework.
"Then go and bring the homework over."
Zhou Xun nodded and put the notebook back on the table.
Meng Yubei thought for a moment. She actually wanted to eat an ice cream, but there was also watermelon in the refrigerator, which she wanted to eat as well.
Thinking about it, she went downstairs with Zhou Xun and decided to eat some watermelon while doing her homework.
Fortunately, she has a good stomach; otherwise, eating like that would definitely have caused her stomach pain.
Zhou Xun walked behind her and looked up to see the exposed skin and legs on her back. He looked away uncomfortably.
