I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 339 I'm a little afraid of her, so I don't go to see her much...

The next morning, Tang Zhi left and went home.

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran didn't open their eyes until around 10 a.m.

Because they were so exhausted this semester, they couldn't help but sleep in a little longer after finally being able to relax completely...

When they opened their eyes, they glanced at each other, and only after their eyes met did they smile...

Good morning, honey...

"Sleep a little longer, we don't have anything to do these next few days, you can get some rest..."

When will Mom and Dad be back? Any news?

"Them? It would be good enough if they could make it back on New Year's Day... There's still about a week until New Year's Day."

Zhou Heng lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, his thoughts drifting back many years to when he was still in junior high school.

Lying in bed, contemplating life...

Now, so many years later, lying here again, holding my beloved in my arms, I feel like there's nothing left to ponder in life; life is crystal clear now...

"Then I'll get up and make you breakfast. It's a bit late for breakfast this time... Hmm... you can just have it as lunch..."

Yin Mengran was about to sit up when Zhou Heng stopped her, pulled her into his arms, and covered her with the blanket...

"Oh dear... I told you to rest a little longer... Anyway, there's no time for breakfast, so let's skip it. Let's go out for lunch. I'll take you to a restaurant I used to frequent back home, but I don't know if it's still open..."

"Okay, okay, I got it..."

Yin Mengran, with an indulgent and accommodating expression, hugged Zhou Heng's waist, buried her head in his chest, and felt his body heat...

"Wife..."

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Yin Mengran looked up at Zhou Heng's face and blinked her big eyes...

“There’s no one home now…we…” Zhou Heng began softly, and Yin Mengran instantly understood what he meant…

She buried her head again, letting out a soft "Mmm" against Zhou Heng's chest...

"hey-hey..."

Zhou Heng reached out, hooked the shoulder strap of Yin Mengran's nightgown, and slowly pulled it down...

Yin Mengran cooperated fully, helping Zhou Heng slowly remove her nightgown, revealing her snow-white skin...

"Hey-"

Zhou Heng then mounted his horse and pinned Yin Mengran down...

"Click——"

"Um?!"

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran were immediately startled; they seemed to have heard something outside...

That sounds like someone coming in.

Have Mom and Dad come back?

Yin Mengran hid under the covers, a little scared, and asked in a low voice.

"That's impossible! They should have sent a message beforehand if they were coming back..."

Zhou Heng got off Yin Mengran and got out of bed...

Yin Mengran then covered herself with the blanket...

Zhou Heng began to wonder who the person outside was. Could it be a house cleaner? Did they just walk in without anyone knowing if anyone was home?

He frowned, opened the door to the room, and walked out...

"Uh?"

As soon as he stepped outside, he made eye contact with the person in front of him and froze on the spot...

The person in front of me had white hair, which was tied up in a bun. She was an old woman with a face full of wrinkles and a slight hunchback, but her eyes were still firm and she looked very energetic...

The old lady glanced at Zhou Heng, paused slightly, then narrowed her eyes, frowned, and questioned him:

"Who are you?"

Zhou Heng's lips twitched, a helpless expression appearing on his face, and he replied loudly:

"I...I'm Zhou Heng! Grandma! Don't you recognize me?"

"Huh? Zhou Heng?"

Grandma squinted her eyes, leaned closer, and stared at Zhou Heng's face for a long time...

"Oh my god! Zhou Heng! You've really gotten bigger... Grandma didn't recognize you!"

Grandma saw Zhou Heng clearly, reached out and patted his arm, then grinned.

"Grandma, what brings you here?" Zhou Heng asked, leaning close to his grandmother's ear.

"Oh, isn't that right? Your dad said you're coming home for Chinese New Year this year, so he called me along. Your parents are both busy, so I had to come help with the tidying up. We need to buy New Year's goods; we can't have nothing at home for the New Year..."

"It's still a long way from the Lunar New Year..."

"It's getting late! Still sleeping in? You're still in your pajamas. Let me fold your blankets for you, get up now."

Grandma patted Zhou Heng's arm, then walked past him, pushed open the door, and went inside...

"Hey, no! Grandma..."

Zhou Heng tried to stop her but couldn't. When his grandmother entered the room, she saw the blankets on the bed were bulging...

There's clearly someone lying inside...

"What...what's going on?"

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Grandma lowered her voice, pointed to the blanket, and looked at Zhou Heng, asking a question.

"Ahem...Grandma, please go out first, we'll talk later..."

Zhou Heng didn't explain; he first asked his grandmother to leave, then quickly closed the door to the room...

"boom--"

"Honey... wake up... my grandma's here..."

Zhou Heng gently patted the blanket and said in a low voice,

He felt somewhat helpless. He had just been feeling the crucial moment when his grandmother suddenly arrived, making him feel nothing at all.

"what?"

Yin Mengran poked her head out, her face flushed, and looked at Zhou Heng, whispering:

"Grandma? Why have you never mentioned her? And you've never visited her..."

"Well... you know I don't have that much time, and my grandma's house is quite far away, and most importantly..."

Zhou Heng scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and continued:

"She's a bit strict, and I'm somewhat afraid of her, so I don't visit her very often..."

"Ah...is it very strict?"

"Hmm... When I was little, I couldn't play games at my grandma's house. She wouldn't let me. Anyway... there were all sorts of rules, it was really annoying. It didn't feel like I was at my grandma's house, it felt more like I was in a training camp..."

Yin Mengran and Zhou Heng quickly got dressed and made the bed.

Then Yin Mengran stood in front of the mirror and began to tidy herself up...

Combing hair, tidying clothes, etc.

She just woke up and doesn't look well at all. She's already meeting Zhou Heng's grandmother? That's too hasty...

Moreover, she had heard that she was such a strict person, which made Yin Mengran even more nervous...

"Let's go... Remember to speak louder later, she's a little hard of hearing, she won't hear you if you speak softly..."
