Shen Yi didn’t get an answer to his question and he didn’t need one, he just wanted to respond back to Fu Yuhe as it was quite interesting seeing Fu Yuhe’s expression crumble.

Shen Yi pulled open the door, only to find Fu Cheng standing with his hand raised, as if he wanted to continue knocking on the door, he was stunned when he saw Shen Yi walking out of his brother’s room.

“Why are you in my brother’s room? I thought you left before I got out of shower.” He said.

Shen Yi said, “You forgot to put some clothes in the bathroom, your brother let me borrow his.”

Only then did Fu Cheng realise that the black T-shirt that Shen Yi was wearing belonged to his brother.

He blinked, “Oh”, his brother didn’t even like someone touching his things, let alone his clothes, did his brother and Shen Yi have such a good relationship?

But that was good, he had been worried that his brother wouldn’t like Shen Yi because of his involvement with the fight, he personally felt that Shen Yi was a very good person, and naturally he did not want his brother to hate him.

Shen Yi glanced at the sky outside, “It’s getting late, I’ll go back first, I still need to write the test paper later.”

“Or you sleep here tonight, and tomorrow we can go to school together…”Before Fu Cheng could complete his sentence, he was interrupted by a voice.

“No.”

The door behind Shen Yi opened, and Fu Yuhe walked out from inside.

“Brother.” Fu Cheng was stunned.

It was not difficult for him to understand that at this moment, his brother’s mood was extremely bad, and his tone of voice was cold.

“Forget it, it’s inconvenient.” Shen Yi smiled.

He just wanted to tease Fu Yuhe, but he didn’t really want to challenge his bottom line and treat him like a scourge, it was interesting, but forget it, it wasn’t the right time.

However, Fu Yuhe felt that he had ulterior motives in approaching Fu Cheng, but didn’t directly inform Fu Cheng, indicating that Fu Cheng would most likely not listen him regarding this matter.

No matter how much Fu Cheng respected his brother, it was impossible for him to listen to him in everything, if the two of them had a conflict because of him, the scene would truly be too wonderful.

“I’ll go first, see you tomorrow.” Shen Yi picked up his schoolbag from the sofa and waved his hand.

Fu Cheng sent him to the door, quietly glanced behind him but didn’t see his brother, so he asked with a whisper, “What did you say to my brother in the room?”

Shen Yi: “Oh, you want to know?

Fu Cheng nodded, it wasn’t common for his brother to have that kind of expression when he was home.

Shen Yi blinked, he placed his fingertip on his lips, and said with a smile: “It’s a secret.”

Fu Cheng: “…” This only made him more curious.

It wasn’t appropriate to say that his brother hated Shen Yi considering he lent him his clothes and even took him to his room, but to say that he had a good impression, he attitude wasn’t quite right.

Curiosity was just curiosity, Fu Cheng didn’t have the guts to ask his brother such a question.

Shen Yi soon ushered in the first monthly exam after he came to this world.

The desks in the classroom were all segregated, the radio on the podium was playing English verses and Shen Yi sat in the back row of the classroom, holding a pen in his hand to write the answer.

[Mom: I’m abroad, I won’t be back in time, ask your father to go with you].

Shen Yi sighed.

He had neither a father’s beating nor a mother’s love, wasn’t he really miserable?

The monthly examinations lasted two days, after which the National Day holidays began. Before the holiday, the teacher specifically instructed the students about the parent-teacher meeting, making the class mourn for their fate.

Summer was gone, but the temperature hasn’t dropped, and during the holidays, Shen Yi’s mobile phone was much livelier, as all kind of notifications kept popping out. Some were notifications regarding new friend requests, some were from his former fake friends, and some came from his classmates, inviting him out to play.

The weather was a little too warm and humid these past two days, so Shen Yi didn’t want to go out instead he decided to rest at home these two days, and asked Fu Cheng, who was also idle, out to play basketball on the morning of the third day.

On the basketball court, the teenager ran under the sun, beads of sweat faintly illuminating on his skin, except for Shen Yi and Fu Cheng, there were also a few classmates they were familiar with, who usually played together.

Fu Cheng wasn’t unable to keep up with Shen Yi’s physical strength, and he took a rest on the side, taking out his mobile phone to have a look at the time, he found that there were several missed calls on it, all from his brother.

His brother usually didn’t call him if he had nothing to do, and Fu Cheng hurriedly dialled back, and the other end quickly connected.

“Brother.”

Fu Yuhe: “Why didn’t you answer the phone?”

Fu Cheng: “I didn’t hear it.”

Fu Yuhe heard some noises: “You’re not at home?”

“Well, I came out to play.” Fu Cheng said.

“With Shen Yi?” Fu Yuhe guessed it at once on who he was with.

Fu Cheng: “Yes. Brother, are you looking for me for something?”

“It’s nothing.” Fu Yuhe originally wanted Fu Cheng to send a document to the company, but now he didn’t need it.

Before hanging up the phone, Fu Yuhe heard a faint “Fu Cheng” on the other end of the phone, he could tell it was Shen Yi’s voice.

He was sitting in a high-rise office, with a clear view of the city outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. The man who hung up looked down at his phone, and frowned.

There was no need to be so nervous, it’s just teenagers playing ball together.

But he had to admit that he was very concerned about Shen Yi’s existence.

On the basketball court, Shen Yi sat on the steps drinking water, his slender and straight legs stretched out, and his upper body leaned back.

He had called out on purpose.
