Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle

Chapter 92

Shouldn’t be, right?

It’s just hanging up the sheets and quilt cover, there shouldn’t be any misunderstanding, right?

Gu Muxi thought with a bit of hope.

If she deliberately went over to explain, that would really be giving herself away!

Thinking this, Gu Muxi shook her head and continued drinking her porridge, but she still felt a bit uneasy.

On the other side, Li Wan arrived at Yi Feng’s doorstep and knocked.

“Is Little Feng home?” she called out.

After a while, hurried footsteps came from inside, and then the door opened.

“Uh, Auntie, good morning!” Yi Feng, rubbing his sleepy eyes, greeted her with a smile.

Seeing him looking like he had just woken up, Li Wan laughed, “Why are you waking up so late? Is it because the college entrance exams are over, and you’re sleeping in?”

“I was working on something until late last night, slept late. Auntie, please come in,” Yi Feng quickly invited her inside.

As Li Wan stepped into the house, she saw sheets and quilt covers drying on the balcony, pink sheets with bears on them, and she paused in surprise.

Isn’t that Muxi’s sheets and quilt cover?

“Auntie, please have a seat, I’ll pour you some tea,” Yi Feng said as he headed to the kitchen.

Li Wan walked to the balcony, examining carefully, and confirmed she wasn’t mistaken.

Indeed, it was Muxi’s sheets and quilt cover!

But… how come it’s at Little Feng’s place?

A look of suspicion crossed her face, then a flash of realization struck her.

Could it be, could it be that these two kids… have already, already done that thing?

Got the sheets and quilt cover dirty and, fearing discovery at home, washed and dried them at Little Feng’s place?

It seems… really like that!

Li Wan felt this possibility was very likely.

She immediately became worried, her face clouding over with concern.

These kids… really!

They didn’t neglect to take precautions, did they?

It seemed time for some safety education.

Li Wan composed herself, returned to the living room to sit down, pretending not to have seen the sheets and quilt cover on the balcony to avoid embarrassment.

At that moment, Yi Feng also came out with the tea.

“Auntie, here’s your tea.” Yi Feng placed the tea in front of her.

Li Wan pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked, “Little Feng, did you and Muxi, these past few days… do something not so good?”

“Not exactly bad, just somewhat premature.”

Yi Feng was taken aback, thinking, oh no, did Auntie find out about him and Gu Muxi arguing with Old Lady Asangpo and slashing their tires?

It must be her spreading rumors again, and the words reached Auntie.

“Uh… Auntie, we did, but it’s not Muxi’s fault, it was all my idea!” Yi Feng took the blame, protecting Gu Muxi from being scolded.

“Ah?”

“You did?”

“And it was your idea?” Li Wan was flabbergasted.

These kids… really did it!

And Little Feng was really admitting it!

Hearing Yi Feng’s straightforward admission, Li Wan found herself feeling awkward.

The kids have really grown up.

But then again, she herself was dating Gu Xingzhong at Muxi’s age, so it was normal for them to have a partner at this age.

“Cough cough, then did you make any… preparations?” Li Wan beat around the bush, not daring to ask directly.

“Preparations? No, we didn’t prepare at all, it was all spontaneous.”

“Auntie, blame me, it was indeed all my idea!” Yi Feng earnestly stated.

Li Wan was shocked, realizing the kids indeed hadn’t taken precautions!

No wonder the sheets and quilt cover were drying on the balcony.

This was too risky!

What if… it led to serious consequences?

It seemed urgent to educate the kids on safety.

“Er, I’m not blaming you, after all, you’re both grown up, and I can’t control much,” Li Wan shook her head with a smile.

Yi Feng, somewhat embarrassed for causing Auntie concern over the issue with Ah Sangpo, truly felt sorry.

“Auntie, we won’t do it again, definitely not those things!” Yi Feng promised.

Li Wan couldn’t help but laugh, “You young and energetic, how could you possibly not do it?”

“Just, Auntie wanted to say, be safe.”

“Eh? Hm? Ah?”

Yi Feng was utterly confused.

“Uh, okay, I understand, Auntie.”

Although Yi Feng didn’t fully grasp her meaning, he knew to listen to his elders.

Li Wan finally relaxed, taking a big sip of her tea to calm down, then said, “Little Feng, I’ve made pork porridge, come over later to eat, no need to make breakfast for yourself.”

“From now on, don’t be polite with Auntie, we’re all family.”

Yi Feng was touched, feeling warm inside, and nodded vigorously, “Okay, Auntie, I’ll come over after I wash up.”

Li Wan nodded, then stood up to leave.

She returned home with a heavy heart, seeing Gu Muxi still eating breakfast and Gu Xingzhong reading the newspaper on the sofa.

“Husband, come with me for a moment,” Li Wan motioned to Gu Xingzhong.

Gu Xingzhong put down the newspaper, asking, “What’s the matter?”

“Come inside first,” Li Wan glanced at Gu Muxi.

Gu Xingzhong caught the glance, set aside the newspaper, and followed her into the room.

Gu Muxi looked up at her parents, puzzled, What’s going on?

Are they keeping something from me?

Really!

…

Inside the room, Li Wan shared what she saw at Yi Feng’s place regarding Gu Muxi’s sheets and quilt cover and briefly recounted her conversation with Yi Feng.

Gu Xingzhong was dumbfounded, equally stunned.

“Er, you mean, Muxi and Little Feng they…”

“Little Feng really said that?” Gu Xingzhong asked in astonishment.

Li Wan nodded, “That’s what he said.”

“I think the kids are definitely hiding their relationship from us!”

“If they did that, then they’re definitely dating!”

Gu Xingzhong chuckled wryly, “Yeah, the kids have grown up!”

“Fortunately… it’s Little Feng. If it were some other boy, I wouldn’t be at ease.”

“After all, Little Feng is someone we’ve watched grow up. I know what kind of person he is best. He’s a good kid, ambitious, knows how to fix computers, and even does business. If Muxi ends up with him, I’d be more at ease.”

“I was worried they were too familiar with each other to come together, but it seems I worried for nothing.”

He couldn’t help but show a satisfied expression.

Li Wan chuckled softly, “Yes, Little Feng is a good kid. He and Gu Muxi grew up together and get along well. If they get married, they’ll make it work.”

“If they have kids, we could help out.”

“Hey, husband, what do you think would be a good name for the kid?”

Gu Xingzhong: “(￣ェ￣;)…”

“Uh, wife, aren’t you thinking a bit too far ahead?”
