Chapter 418 - High School Memories
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
“That was your first time wearing this coat. I still remember very clearly!” Yang Ming said with a smile, “It was just a physical education class. Our class was skating on the ice rink, and a senior student deliberately knocked you down!”
” Oh ?” When Yang Ming reminded Chen Mengyan, she also had some memories on it. It seems that was the case. The senior boy was a bad student in the school. When she was Grade 10, he entangled her for a while. While deliberately bumping into her, he was trying to take advantage of her, but fortunately, Yang Ming rushed over in time and lifted her up. The boy’s conspiracy didn’t succeed.
However, at that time, Chen Mengyan didn’t have any special feelings for Yang Ming. She only regarded him as her classmate, so the impression wasn’t very deep. At this time, she listened to Yang Ming’s reminder and remembered it.
“That time it was you who helped me? What a coincidence!” Chen Mengyan smiled and looked at Yang Ming. “I didn’t expect that we’d come together in the end.”
“What coincidence? I had been paying attention to you! Your beige down jacket always touches my heart!” Yang Ming was dumbfounded. “At this moment, I’m not afraid to tell you that I had been focusing my attention on you during that time!”
” Huh !” Chen Mengyan was so shocked that she stopped her footsteps and then looked up at Yang Ming. She couldn’t help but smile a little. “Really?”
“Of course, it is true.” Yang Ming also stopped. “I had secretly loved you for three years. I didn’t expect that I finally got along with my dream lover, hehe !”
“What got along? It’s so unpleasant to hear, you naughty!” Chen Mengyan had some regrets. If I found out Yang Ming’s feelings for me earlier, then I could have been with him earlier. Would he still like the others? He won’t be… besides, I feel really good with him, very relaxed and very happy. Chen Mengyan liked this feeling very much. She was a little envious of those early love couples who she had despised initially.
After time passed, Chen Mengyan thought this way now, but she would never have thought so at that time. This is called one mental state at a time.
“At that time, when I saw Wang Zhitao teach you how to skate, I almost cut him into pieces with a skate knife.” Yang Ming also remembered some scenes during that year.
“He taught me during that time?” Chen Mengyan shook her head in a daze. She obviously had forgotten, “Why didn’t you teach me?”
“I was the king of the underachievers that time. You good students couldn’t wait to get away from me.” Yang Ming smiled bitterly.
“…” Chen Mengyan was silent for a while. “Underachiever… In fact, now that I think back, what is the difference between the good students and bad students? We forcibly divided the rank at that time. After I went to university, I discovered that this concept had been relatively irrelevant. ”
“It may be that I was self-contemptuous at the time, and somewhat self-defeating.” Yang Ming sighed, “I was afraid of getting close to you because of the previous incident…”
“You are talking about Su Ya?” Chen Mengyan asked while biting her lip.
Yang Ming didn’t answer, but instead, he nodded silently.
“You… Do you like me the most, or do you like Su Ya?” Chen Meng knew that this wasn’t the right question, but she couldn’t refrain herself from asking. She was such a person. Yang Ming knew very well about her character.
Although sometimes she was envious, she would compromise in the end.
“I can’t compare; it’s two different feelings.” Yang Ming replied truthfully, “Mengyan, your question is a little nonsensical. At least, you are my first girlfriend who I officially brought back home.”
” Hehe …” When Chen Mengyan heard Yang Ming’s explanation, her face immediately bloomed happily like flowers. It was incomparable sweet. Her envy of Su Ya had vanished. Yeah, Su Ya had become a past tense. I’m now Yang Ming’s girlfriend. Thinking of this, Chen Mengyan took the initiative to reach out and linked her arm with Yang Ming’s.
“How come you’re acting so intimate? Aren’t you afraid your family will see it?” Yang Ming teased. Every time he took Chen Mengyan home, she didn’t dare to be too close to him.
“I hate you! You know that my parents know you already !” Chen Mengyan complained.
“Then let’s go further. Let’s have a passionate kiss.” Yang Ming turned his head and looked at Chen Mengyan with an ambiguous smile.
“Okay, I have put on my lipstick. If you’re not afraid of getting it on your lips then go on…” Chen Mengyan refused to show any weakness. The last time he kissed her, it was seen by her father, so she didn’t care.
Yang Ming didn’t care about the lipstick. ” Bab “, he kissed Chen Mengyan’s face.
“You cheater, you kissed my face.” Chen Mengyan rolled her eyes at Yang Ming.
“No, I said passionate kiss, but I didn’t say that I had to kiss your mouth. You were overthinking.” Yang Ming smiled.
“Go to hell. I won’t bother with you anymore.” Chen Mengyan said with no anger.
” Hehe .” Yang Ming smirked twice.
“Right, that high school classmate who bumped into me, he didn’t bother me anymore. Besides, I saw a bandage on his head the next day.” Chen Mengyan suddenly remembered something. “Was it you who did that?”
” Ugh … I had beaten him up…” If Chen Mengyan didn’t mention it, he almost forgot about this. Yang Ming had beaten up so many people. How could he remember it?
” En , your approach was a bit extreme, but the intention was still good. I’ll reward you then!” As Chen Mengyan said this, she also kissed Yang Ming’s face.
Chen Mengyan was quite tall. She was one meter seven, so kissing Yang Ming wasn’t too difficult.
” Cough, cough.. .” Yang Ming was delighted. “Are you rewarding me?” He touched his face and the slimy lipstick on it. Yang Ming shook his head.
” Haha !” Chen Mengyan happily raised her small fist. “Successful revenge!”
They stopped a taxi and went to the business street. Today was the first time Chen Mengyan went to Yang Ming’s home as a guest. Naturally, she had to buy some gifts. This was a must-have etiquette.
“What do your parents like?” Chen Mengyan looked at the dazzling goods in front of her and asked Yang Ming.
They were now in Xinheng Department Store, the largest department store in Song Jiang City. Currently, the store was full of promotional discounts. Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan had to weave through the flow of people.
“My parents don’t need anything. You can buy anything. It’s your intention that matters. If you just bought a pack of fruit, they will be happy too,” said Yang Ming.
“Does your dad smoke?” Chen Mengyan asked while they walked by the tobacco and alcohol counter.
“Don’t. It’s okay for me to give it to your dad, but since you are a girl, it isn’t good to give alcohol and tobacco.” Yang Ming shook his head.
“That’s also true.” Chen Mengyan nodded. “Then should I buy a cashmere sweater for each of your parents?”
“This idea isn’t bad.” Yang Ming recalled that his parents’ cashmere sweaters were bought at the time of the big sale in the previous year, and they hadn’t bought new ones yet.
The two people came to the Erdos counter which had a sale, too. If they bought two, they could enjoy a 20% discount.
Chen Mengyan and Yang Ming picked two cashmere sweaters that were more suitable for middle-aged people, and then they got the invoice and prepared to pay.
Yang Ming naturally took out the bank card and was going to swipe it, but Chen Mengyan stopped him. “I will pay.”
“Isn’t it the same thing…” Yang Ming was stunned.
“It’s not the same. Other things can be, but these are my gifts for your parents. Of course, I have to pay for it.” Chen Mengyan said seriously.
“Okay, then you pay.” Yang Ming didn’t care. Chen Mengyan’s family conditions were quite wealthy too, so he didn’t reject it.
After paying the money, Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan rushed back to Yang Ming’s home. It was just about nine o’clock. The time was just right.
“Your home is here.” Chen Mengyan came to Yang Ming’s home for the first time. She was curious. “It’s very close to our high school.”
“Yeah, I was riding a bicycle to school at that time.” Yang Ming nodded.
“Right, I was still wondering where your bicycle was. Why didn’t you ride it afterward?” Chen Mengyan asked casually, “At that time, I wanted you to fetch me with a bicycle to go for an outing. The feeling should be enjoyable, right?”
“Bicycle? Don’t mention it. Someone ruined it.” Yang Ming sweated, Wasn’t it that scum, Jin Gang, who smashed my bicycle? By the way, this guy hasn’t paid for my bicycle yet. I have to get it from him one day.
“Ruined? What was going on? Who did you mess with?” Chen Mengyan’s facial expression looked a bit bad. She didn’t like Yang Ming to be involved in fighting. She would be worried.
“Who did I provoke? Jin Gang, did you know him?” Yang Ming said, “He was our physical education teacher in high school.”
” En , I heard of that. Why is it related to him? Was he… the one who smashed your bicycle?” Chen Mengyan asked curiously.
“It was him…” Yang Ming smiled bitterly. “But it wasn’t that I provoked him. It was this guy who provoked me…” Yang Ming told Chen Mengyan about the incident with Zhao Ying.
