Chapter 541: 522
Catherine ultimately did not share the photo of the two of them. Perhaps because she finally got to eat fried skewers, she gave Shen Mochen a break.
When she returned home, it was already deep into the night. After a quick wash up, Catherine entered Shen Mochen's bedroom and casually tied up her hair.
"Primary schools are letting out tomorrow afternoon, what are your plans?" Shen Mochen asked lazily as he wrapped his arms around her.
"You're the one who said primary schools are letting out, what plans can I have? I guess I'll pick up your sister," Catherine said, resting her head on Shen Mochen's shoulder.
"What will you do then?" Shen Mochen asked.
By now, people knew about the relationship between Shen Mochen and Shu Lingyun. If Shen Mochen and Shu Lingyun appeared together, even if Shen Mochen was well-disguised, he would be recognized; therefore, at that point, it wouldn't be convenient for Catherine to show up as well.
"What can I do? Your sister is obviously the most important!" Catherine pressed down on Shen Mochen, kissing and nuzzling for a good while.
"Sorry about that, I'll just take her out for a day. There's plenty of time to be with you," Shen Mochen said, lightly licking Catherine's earlobe.
"Hmpf, do as you like, I'm not a woman who can't do without you," Catherine got up, "I'm going to sleep over at Teacher's place, goodnight."
Shen Mochen was taken aback: "Isn't... you're just going to leave like that? I...what about me..."
"I'm not your sexual outlet," Catherine rolled her eyes, giving a cold laugh, "Handle it yourself, or should I call Fuzi to hurry back?"
Shen Mochen's face turned bitter: "That's my sister, are you going to be jealous?"
Catherine shrugged: "You're thinking too much. I don't care at all."
Yeah, right, as if she didn't care! Tease and run away wasn't that caring? Shen Mochen was frustrated but helpless, and could only watch Catherine go to the room across.
"Cough... do you need help?"
Ran Linlin peeked out with her blushing face.
Shen Mochen hopeful: "Could you ensure that under her forty-meter-long sword, the whole building won't get sliced open?"
Ran Linlin scratched her head with a troubled expression: "Well, protecting you should be okay, but to protect the whole building... that's indeed difficult."
"Then you should go rest."
Shen Mochen sighed with disappointment.
Catherine slicing open a building might not affect her, but his own situation would become awkward.
Ran Linlin left looking disappointed.
The next day, Shen Mochen and Catherine continued to shop, had lunch, and paid a visit to the amusement park. Catherine scoffed at the drop tower but loved the spinning teacups immensely.
Finally, when they came out, it was almost evening.
A modest sedan slowly parked by the roadside. Catherine walked up to it, opened the door, and asked the driver to get out.
"Get in," Catherine sat in the passenger seat.
"What?" Shen Mochen was a bit taken aback.
"Aren't you going to pick up your sister? Hurry up, get in!"
"Where did you get this car?"
Catherine shrugged: "I still have some connections in Yu Huai City."
Shen Mochen was still surprised: "But... you don't have a driver's license, right?"
"That's not important. Even if we come across traffic police, as long as you show your identity, everything will be fine. They definitely won't give us a hard time."
"This isn't the point of the problem!"
Catherine became furious upon hearing this, "You don't trust my driving skills?"
Shen Mochen was in a real bind, "No, no, I..."
It's not that I have a problem riding in your car, but my sister has to ride with you later!
"Never mind, I'm just teasing you," Catherine chuckled and handed her phone to Shen Mochen, "I got bored when I returned to the country, so I took Roman's driving test. Here, this is a photo of my driver's license."
"In fact, with your skills, I'd trust you even without a license!" Shen Mochen quickly got into the passenger seat.
"Hypocrite." Catherine huffed coldly and slammed on the gas pedal.
Shen Mochen yelled in alarm, "Don't drive this fast in the city, are you trying to take off?"
Catherine cracked a smile, "Otherwise, your sister will be getting out of school."
...
"Shu sister, I've already done your Chinese homework for you. Is our brother coming to visit you this weekend? Could you bring me along too?"
"Our brother is so busy, surely fighting with monsters right now, how would he have the time!"
"No, isn't it the separation month now? Our brother might be on a break!"
"Shu sister, I'm begging you. I've been doing your foreign language homework for a whole week. Let me meet brother just once, can he sign an autograph for me, please?"
"Shu sister, I've just bought some spicy strips. Here, you have them."
"What's so great about spicy strips? The roasted sausages I bought taste much better!"
"Shu sister, I'm the most loyal one. I didn't even do my own math homework in the last period, I did yours first!"
Sunshine Primary School saw its last bell of the week, with students stepping out of the school grounds to the sound of the bell, greeting two days of weekend rest ahead of them.
But unlike usual, many students weren't in a hurry to leave, instead gathering in noisy clusters.
And at the center, surrounded like a star by a throng, was naturally the disgruntled Shu Lingyun.
Ever since everyone learned her brother was Shen Mochen, not only did her old entourage come back, but their numbers grew. Shu Lingyun couldn't be bothered to remember their names, so she gave them numbers. She had officially enlisted over a hundred of them by now.
But she wasn't happy at all, she was quite annoyed because she hadn't seen her brother in a long time.
Thinking back, her brother seemed to have run into some emergency that day, having a cop take her home, and she didn't even have her brother's phone number.
Her brother hadn't visited her in so long, could it be that he didn't want her anymore?
"Don't eat that, he's my brother, not yours, don't call him that!" Shu Lingyun scolded the sycophants around her fiercely, shaking her twin ponytails.
Wuu wuu, brother hates mom, maybe he hates me now as well... The more Shu Lingyun thought about it, the sadder she got. As the sun set, she couldn't help but feel sorrowful, and seeing her entourage of little followers, she found them even more displeasing to the eye, wearing a scowl the whole time.
"Shen Mochen is here!"
At the school gate, someone let out a shriek, and the campus, which was somewhat orderly, instantly became chaotic.
Shu Lingyun immediately looked up and saw a boy stepping out from a car.
His face was as flawless as jade, his appearance otherworldly, as if no word in the world could describe his handsomeness. His eyes swept across the scene holding a beauty more heart-wrenching than the sunset, causing everyone's heart to skip a beat.
"Lingyun, I'm here to pick you up. I'm not late, am I?" He smiled and waved at Shu Lingyun.
"Bro... Brother!"
Shu Lingyun was first taken aback, then she recklessly burst through the crowd, shouting as she threw herself into Shen Mochen's arms.
