Chapter 394 Childhood Sweetheart 1

Chen Xiaopang is thin. This time he is really thin. Tang Cao is scared when he sees Chen Xiaopang.

“Wow! Have you lost weight?”

Tong Yue also eats with them today. He sits down and glances at Chen Xiaopang.

“How can you be like this? A few years ago your mother had an operation but you didn’t lose weight for more than half a year. But you lose weight for a woman now.”

Chen Xiaopang and Tang Cao despise him. Tong Yue was also not calm when he was chasing his girlfriend.

Of course, they dare not to say it. Tong Yue is the one who makes money for them. It’s not good to offend him.

“Do you think Zhao Ying doesn’t like men?” Chen Xiaopang begins to comfort himself, “Otherwise, why doesn’t she like me?”

Tang Cao snorts, “If I am a woman, I won’t choose you. Maybe she suspects that you have AIDS because of your promiscuity.”

“F**k! If I have AIDS, you two will be infected.”

“Anyway, you know what I mean.” Tang Cao pats him on the shoulder, “As I’ve said, Zhao Ying, a girl with high education, intelligence and income, won’t like you.”

Chen Xiaopang is very aggrieved, “I know I was not good before. But she can’t compare me with those bastards that play with women! I’ve always taken what I needed. I haven’t had sex with women casually.”

“Well! In women’s eyes, you are the man who has sex with women casually, who cares if you need it.” Tang Cao says triumphantly, “Look at me! I’m so clean that Diandian likes me so much.”

Chen Xiaopang’s whole body shrinks and he looks like he is going to die at any moment.

“Do you like her so much?” Tang Cao asks, “Why don’t you try someone else?”

Chen Xiaopang lowers his big head. Tong Yue chuckles.

“You and Zhao Ying have known each other since childhood, haven’t you?”

“Yes.” Chen Xiaopang says weakly, “We are also childhood sweethearts. Why doesn’t she like me? What the poem says is deceitful.”

“I’ve never learned it. But I know it’s not like that.” Tang Cao kicks him.

Tong Yue rubs his eyebrows and says, “Think carefully. Did you do something to her when you were a child? So she ignores you now.”

“What?” Chen Xiaopang is shocked, “What could I do when I was so young?”

Tong Yue’s mouth twitches and he says, “What do you think I’m talking about?”

“Tong Yue means whether you have bullied her, like pulling her pigtail and putting bugs in her schoolbag.” Tang Cao scolds him, “Don’t think about everything in that way.”

Chen Xiaopang ponders for a few seconds and then his face suddenly turns white.

That year, Chen Xiaopang was eight years old and in second grade. His father made a fortune two years ago and became rich. As a native northeast man, Chen Xiaopang’s father thought that he should take his wife and child to big cities to see the world. They had a relative in Yanjing, so they reached Yanjing and started to set foot in the real estate industry.

“Jinjin, when you were born, a fortune-teller said you were helpful to me. He let me give you a name with wealth in it. So your name is Chen Jinjin. Ha-ha! You are surely helpful to our family.”

In a word, when Chen Xiaopang was in his second grade, his family was rich in Yanjing. Otherwise, he could not go to such an aristocratic school called Caesar. Of course, many people in the background thought that he was an upstart and he was uncool. That’s out of his consideration. He didn’t mind. What he cared about at that time was that a little girl suddenly appeared in his home.

“Xiaopang, come on.” That day when he went home from school, his mother happily waved to him.

Then Chen Xiaopang saw a little black and thin girl standing in the living room.

“Mom, who is she?” He asked warily.

Wang Cailian was shocked by her son’s expression, “Why are you so afraid?”

“Is it the child my father brought back?” Chen Xiaopang stared at the little girl viciously, “He even had another child!”

Chen Qing, who was chewing an onion came out of the kitchen, almost choked to death. He raised his hand and hit Chen Xiaopang on the head.

“Where did you learn these words?”

Chen Xiaopang covered his head and stared at his father, “Our classmates said that their father had other children outside.”

“Look, look!” Wang Cailian looked at her husband discontentedly, “I told you not to let him go to the noble school. You see what he’s learned.” She pulled Chen Xiaopang’s ear, “This is your Aunt Cong Fei’s daughter. Do you remember? You were hugged by her when you were little.”

How could Chen Xiaopang remember? But when he heard that it was not his father’s child outside, he immediately became captious, and “Why is she here?”

“Zhao Ying comes to live in our home. In the future, you should treat her as your sister. Do you hear that?” After scolding his son, Chen Qing turned his head and smiled at Zhao Ying, “Ying, don’t be afraid. You can take this as your own home! If he dares to bully you, tell me and I will hit him!”

After dinner, Chen Xiaopang figured out why Zhao Ying would live in his home.

“Zhao Ying’s mother has gone to work abroad, so she has no way to take care of her. So I brought her to our home. She can go to school with you.”

“Where is her father?” Chen Xiaopang asked, “Doesn’t her father want her?”

“What are you thinking?” After saying this, Wang Cailian lowered her voice, “Ying’s father has gone far away. You see how pitiful she is. Don’t bully her.”

“Then her father is dead and sleeping under the ground.” Chen Xiaopang said, “There are many poor people. There are so many poor children in the orphanage on TV last time. Do you want to bring them to our home?”

Standing aside, Chen Xiaopang’s father couldn’t help patting his son again, “You don’t know anything! When we went to play in the mountain, we met a bear. If Ying’s mother hadn’t led the bear away, your mother and I would have been dead. You wouldn’t come to this world.”

In a word, Zhao Ying is the daughter of his parents’ friend and benefactor. Chen Xiaopang thought that the girl was black and thin, so he couldn’t help asking again.

“Is her family very poor? She is so ugly...” Then his mouth was covered by his father.

Wang Cailian stared at Chen Xiaopang and stood up. She went to the stairway and pulled the little black girl to the living room.

“How about the room I prepared for you?” Wang Cailian asked enthusiastically, “Tell me what you like and what you don’t like. You can regard it as your home in the future!”

Chen Xiaopang broke away from his father and looked at Zhao Ying carefully. She wore her own family clothes, grey autumn clothes.

She’s uglier...

Chen Xiaopang disliked her.

“Thank you, Auntie. The room is beautiful. Don’t worry.” Zhao Ying whispered. Her thick bangs covered half of her face. Others could not see her expression.

This was the first time Chen Xiaopang had heard her voice. It’s quite pleasant, at least not harsh. But! He didn’t want to play with such an ugly girl. Girls are the most troublesome. They often cry.

“Well!” Wang Cailian probably hoped that the two children would become good friends, so she let Chen Xiaopang take Zhao Ying back to the room to put away books.

Chen Xiaopang didn’t want to go, but he wanted to let the little girl know his strength. So he walked ahead with his head up. He gave Zhao Ying a squint when passing by.

“Follow me.”

The villa of Chen Family had three floors. The house maids lived on the first floor. Chen Xiaopang’s parents lived on the second floor. Chen Xiaopang himself lived on the third floor. But Zhao Ying would live on the third floor too.

“My mother is very kind to you.” Chen Xiaopang opened the room on the far right jealously and looked, “This room is as big as mine.” When he saw that there were many dolls in the room and the carpet and furniture were also light pink and purple, he snorted.

He shut the door with one foot, “What are you doing? Where are your books?”

Zhao Ying, who had almost no sense of existence, silently took her bag out of the cabinet. Wang Cailian had bought her a new bag, which was also pink and beautiful.

“Let me see. Ah? Are you also in second grade?” Chen Xiaopang found that the little girl’s books were the same as his, “How old are you?”

Zhao Ying reached out her five fingers.

“You are five years old. You are in the second grade.” Chen Xiaopang was surprised as if he had an egg in his mouth.

Then he pushed Zhao Ying fiercely, “How dare you cheat me?”

Zhao Ying was so little that she almost fell down. She held a chair to stand and shook her head, “I didn’t cheat you. I’m in the second grade.”

“I mean you’re five!” Chen Xiaopang yelled at her, “You can only go to the second grade when you are eight, you know?”

Zhao Ying finally raised her head and said earnestly, “Mom said I’m smart, so I don’t need to go to kindergarten. I can just go to primary school.”

Chen Xiaopang is speechless.

“Mom! Mom!” He rushed downstairs and said, “You should send that child away. She’s not a good child. She’s lying!”

Wang Cailian was chatting with the school teacher on WeChat. She asked the teacher to take care of Zhao Ying. Hearing her son shout again, she said to Chen Qing angrily, “Take care of your son. He always lies. He thinks others are the same as him!”

“Dad, do you know how old she said she was?” Chen Xiaopang shouted, “She said she was five years old! Five years old!”

Chen Qing smoked in the kitchen. He grinned and came out, “Ying was in the first grade when she was 4 years old. Isn’t she in the second grade when she is 5 years old? I told you to study hard but you didn’t listen. You can’t even solve such a simple math problem now.”

“She...” Chen Xiaopang didn’t know what to say.

Wang Cailian patted his big head, “You should learn more from Ying. She is smart! When she started school, she was on the news.”

“Ying!” Seeing Zhao Ying go downstairs, Wang Cailian waved at her, “Come on! You and Xiaopang are in the same class. Please help me to keep a good eye on him. If he makes trouble at school, you can go home and tell me.”

Chen Xiaopang looked at Zhao Ying fiercely and threatened her with his eyes, “If you promise, I will hit you!”

Zhao Ying says, “Okay, Auntie. I will stare at him.”

“Well! Please help him with his study.” Wang Cailian added, “He is not smart and his academic performance is always poor.”

Chen Xiaopang looked at Zhao Ying with more ferocious eyes.

Zhao Ying looked at him and said, “Xiaopang, don’t worry! I will help you with your study.”

Chen Xiaopang is speechless again.
