Although she was very shy, no matter what, she had confessed to Shen Yue.
Xia Yanchun felt a little bit happy.
She had to confess eventually; now it was Shen Yue, and in the future, it would be both their parents.
Other couples usually confess they are dating someone, date for two or three years, and then bring them home to meet the parents. She and Shen Nian didn't have to think that far ahead; just figuring out how to confess they were dating was a problem in itself.
After all, once they confessed, it would be the equivalent of meeting the parents, and it would be a meeting between both sets of parents.
They had to be extremely careful!
At half past eleven at night, since Shen Yue had to work the next day, she had no choice but to brush her teeth, wash her face, and go back to her room to snuggle up in bed.
She looked very miserable.
As soon as Shen Yue returned to her room, Shen Nian took over Shen Yue's previous spot. He sat next to Xia Yanchun, snuggled up to her, boldly pulled the soft Xia Yanchun into his arms, and watched TV with her.
Leaning against Shen Nian's arm was more comfortable than anything else. Xia Yanchun quickly softened into a puddle of Chunbao, not even making a sound when Shen Nian stroked her cheek.
She had slept until eleven o'clock today and stayed home all day, so she was still very energetic right now. Normally, she would have already dragged Shen Nian back to the room to play their little archenemy roleplay.
Snuggled up so closely, Xia Yanchun couldn't help but turn her face to bury it in the crook of Shen Nian's arm and take a sniff. Not smelling that familiar body wash scent, Xia Yanchun looked up at him.
"Did you not take a shower?"
"Yeah, wasn't I watching TV with you guys? To be honest, I feel like these people on TV can't sing as well as I do."
"Tone-deaf people shouldn't brag."
"We're in the same boat, alright? Your singing literally deafens me."
"I'll hit you, believe it or not." Xia Yanchun fiercely raised her small fist, though she didn't actually bring it down. After putting her hand away, she gave Shen Nian a shove, urging him to hurry up and take a shower.
"After you shower, let's go down and stroll through the night market. We never really had the chance while we were in school."
"Sure, wait for me. I'll be super fast."
"Why wash so fast? Make sure you wash clean."
Shen Nian made an OK gesture, ran back to his room at the speed of light to find clothes, and slipped into the bathroom in a flash.
When he came out again, he had changed into a set of black and white short sleeves and shorts. His leg hair was dark, and from a distance, it looked as if his calves were outlined with a black border only seen in animations.
"Let's go." Shen Nian stuffed his clothes into the washing machine.
"Aren't you going to dry your hair?"
"Won't it dry after walking a few steps outside?"
"You look like a hedgehog."
"I won't once it dries."
"Then let's go, heave-ho." Xia Yanchun hopped onto the floor and slipped on her sandals, not wanting to wear her canvas shoes anymore.
Wearing sandals to stroll the night market was the only way to get the right vibe.
They went downstairs together, and Shen Nian drove the scooter to the nearest market.
In the evenings, many people would come out to set up stalls here. The snack vendors occupied one side, while the clothing and toy vendors took up the other. There were also various grandpas and grandmas who would bring their vegetables to set up stalls at two or three o'clock. Once the night market was over, this whole area would become quite messy.
However, special cleaning trucks would come to clean it up. This area was specially opened by the government, and police cars patrolled the perimeter every day, afraid that the large crowds might lead to accidents.
Perhaps because the college entrance exams had just finished, even though it was a weekday, there was no place to park. Shen Nian had to park the electric scooter far away and slowly walk over with Xia Yanchun.
The night market was bustling with crowds of people. The lights brought by the vendors illuminated the entire market, and they could smell the aroma of barbecue even before walking in.
"Smells so good." Xia Yanchun looked around. "Do you want to eat barbecue? My treat."
"Yes!"
"Mhm." Xia Yanchun trotted over to a barbecue stall, grabbed a small tray, and loaded it with three skewers of chives, three skewers of kidneys, and two corn cobs. "Boss, add a dozen grilled oysters and an eggplant."
"Alright."
Shen Nian rubbed his chin from behind.
Was there going to be an intense, hearty battle tonight?
Stupid Husky Chun, haven't I already educated you that eating these is useless? It's not as effective as Liuwei Dihuang pills.
As long as your bro wants to, even boiling some sweet soup can nourish the kidneys; why waste money on this.
"Hey, what did you just order?" After she finished ordering, Shen Nian pulled Xia Yanchun aside.
"What's wrong?" Xia Yanchun tilted her head. "Are you overthinking things? I didn't buy them for you to nourish your kidneys, I just simply wanted to eat them."
"Ahem, is that so? Then no problem. I was just wondering what you ordered and how you knew exactly what to get. You look like a real foodie."
"Give me a break." Xia Yanchun twitched her lips, feeling that Shen Nian had a dirty mind and not wanting to be infected by it.
The barbecue stall's grill was very long, and the boss had an assistant, so they cooked up a bunch in no time. Without waiting too long, a bag of barbecue was handed to Xia Yanchun.
"Hold this." Xia Yanchun took out a hot dog skewer and shoved the rest into Shen Nian's hands.
"I knew it."
"What's wrong? I'm treating you, can't you help me hold it?"
"No, no, Chunbao is the best."
"You better really think so. Don't think I don't know you curse me in your heart every day."
"I curse you to your face."
"Take my kick." Xia Yanchun lightly kicked Shen Nian's calf.
Eating and strolling along the way, sure enough, shopping couldn't do without drinks. So Xia Yanchun bought a cup of sweet soup, and the two of them each drank half.
After walking for a short while, Shen Nian had already finished the barbecue skewers. The remaining grilled oysters and eggplant were inconvenient to eat while walking, so they had to take them home to eat, otherwise he definitely would have scarfed them all down.
The latter half of the market was the toy and clothing area. There were relatively fewer people here compared to the snack section.
The clothes sold weren't very high-end either. Three pieces for a hundred yuan, a flat fifteen percent discount, authentic Nike pants for twenty-five yuan a pair, megaphones were blaring all sorts of things. As for whether they were genuine, Xia Yanchun had no idea.
She rarely shopped at clothing stalls like this, preferring to buy online or from brand-name stores in shopping malls. To be honest, she looked down a bit on these twenty or thirty yuan items.
It was worth mentioning that the night market not only had clothing vendors but also stalls specifically selling trendy little accessories. They had even more varieties than boutique stores, looking dazzling at first glance, and many of them were exceptionally pretty.
Xia Yanchun picked up a lace headband to try on, looking at herself back and forth in the stall's mirror.
With her hands behind her back and leaning slightly forward, Xia Yanchun turned to look at Shen Nian. "What do you think of this headband?"
"Oh my apple pie, you are the most beautiful Cinan girl I have ever seen. There are stars in your eyes, and in my hometown, I am the prince of a breeding farm."
"I'm asking about the headband!"
"It looks good, Chunbao."
"Boss, how much is this?"
"Ten yuan, everything is ten yuan."
"Please pack it for me."
"Alright."
Xia Yanchun stood on her tiptoes, just about to look for other pretty accessories, when her shoulder was suddenly poked by Shen Nian.
"Chunbao, I feel that this item is destined for me. It must surely be a great opportunity." Shen Nian brought out a box of stockings from behind his back.
Black ones.
"I didn't expect you to have this kind of fetish..." Xia Yanchun imagined the scene of Shen Nian wearing stockings, with his leg hair poking through the gaps, and a look of disgust washed over her face.
Shen Nian: "?"
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely.

So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
