Back to my parents when I was seventeen

Chapter 213 Listen to Mom

After having dinner at his grandparents' house, Xu Chuning chatted with the two elderly people for a while.

It was not until their lunch break that she left with Xu Yiming and Ye Qiongfang.

After leaving, he returned to Xu's house.

There was a classmate gathering in the evening, and Xu Yiming said he would take her there later.

After watching TV with Ye Qiongfang at home for a while, it was almost time for dinner.

When Xu Chuning arrived at the dinner location, Shen Sinian and Deng Xitong were waiting for her at the door.

Seeing her appear, the two waved to her happily, "Ningning."

Xu Chu Ning walked over with a smile, "Why are you two here so early?"

"Is it early?" Deng Xitong checked the time. "Just in time."

The three of them went in together.

Xu Chuning originally thought that the graduation dinner would be sad, she never expected that this dinner would be about gossip.

She was eating quietly when her classmate called her name, "Xu Chuning."

Xu Chuning looked up in surprise, "Huh?"

The classmate looked at her, then at Shen Sinian beside her, with gossipy eyes glittering, "Can I ask you a question? You have to answer me honestly."

He emphasized, "Now that you have graduated from high school, the teachers won't care anymore."

The teachers at the other table were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Xu Chu Ning paused slightly, probably knowing what the classmate wanted to ask.

She nodded hesitantly, "Ask."

"Shen Yubai and Shen Sinian, which one do you like?" the classmate asked boldly.

This question is actually what most students are curious about.

They all wanted to know who Xu Chu Ning liked and who he would be with. High school study life was boring, and everyone could only gossip about these things during their spare time.

Xu Chuning knew that many classmates on the campus forum were betting on whether she would choose Shen Yubai or Shen Sinian.

At this point, Xu Chuning really wanted to hold her forehead and tell them that Shen Sinian was her son.

When this question came out, Shen Sinian was the first one to laugh out loud.

Xu Chuning glanced at him.

Shen Sinian covered his lips and coughed, "Xu Chuning and I are really not what everyone thinks."

Others: "Shen Sinian, you are really stubborn."

Shen Sinian choked.

Xu Chu Ning couldn't help laughing, "I can't answer this question for you for now."

"Why?" someone protested.

Xu Chuning: "Because I care more about my reputation."

Everyone: "..."

Xu Chuning said softly, "Shen Sinian and I are really not what everyone thinks."

Someone asked excitedly, "So are you and Shen Yubai what we thought?"

"..." Xu Chu Ning was also caught off guard. She thought for three seconds and answered the classmate, "We are not in a premature relationship."

Having said this, someone wanted to ask further questions, but was interrupted by Deng Xitong.

"What's wrong with you? It's not right for you to chase after a girl like Xu Chuning and ask her about her relationship. If you want to gossip, you should ask two boys. Ask Shen Sinian and Shen Yubai." Deng Xitong said defensively, "Ask them whether they like Xu Chuning or not. Only then can Xu Chuning make a choice."

Everyone felt that what Deng Xitong said made some sense.

In an instant, everyone turned their attention to Shen Sinian.

Shen Sinian said frankly, "It's me. I like Xu Chuning. But it's not love."

"What is that?" everyone asked in unison.

Shen Sinian: "If I say it's family love, do you believe me?"

"...You might as well say it's friendship. We still believe it a little more." After the senior year of high school, everyone knew that Shen Sinian and Shen Yubai were related by blood. He was Shen Yubai's younger brother. It was this relationship that was exposed that made everyone more curious about the brothers and Xu Chuning.

The bloody drama of two brothers liking one person is something that no one expects to be fake.

Shen Sinian shrugged, "Look, you don't believe me when I tell you the truth."

Classmates: “Tsk.”

Shen Sinian: “…”

He sighed pitifully, "Forget it, if you don't believe it, forget it."

Deng Xitong noticed Shen Sinian's reaction and whispered to Xu Chuning, "He likes tea."

Xu Chu Ning suppressed a smile and said, "A little bit."

The dinner ended at around nine o'clock. Some classmates said they wanted to go to KTV to sing. Xu Chuning didn't want to go, but since everyone was going, it seemed a bit inappropriate for her to say no.

More importantly, this is probably the last time that all the classmates in the class get together like this.

Without much hesitation, Xu Chu Ning followed everyone to go to KTV.

Xu Chuning is not very good at singing, but Shen Sinian can.

She found a seat in a corner and sat down, and the phone in her pocket vibrated.

Xu Chu Ning took out a message from Shen Yubai: [In KTV? ]

Xu Chuning: [Yeah, you guys went to KTV too, right? ]

Shen Yubai: [Well, how long do you plan to stay in the KTV? ]

Xu Chu Ning glanced at the time: [At least one or two hours. ]

Shen Yubai: [Tell me when you're going back.]

Xu Chuning: [Okay.]

There is a lively atmosphere all around.

Xu Chuning sat in the corner, watching familiar and not-so-familiar classmates pick up the microphone to sing and play.

There were lively sounds all around, it was noisy and the atmosphere was great.

Xu Chuning listened and watched and couldn't help laughing.

More than half an hour later, Shen Sinian picked up the microphone.

He glanced at Xu Chuning and said, "Let me sing a song."

Everyone subconsciously looked at Xu Chu Ning, "Who are you singing for?"

Shen Sinian: "Everyone's."

Everyone: "..."

He didn't accept it at all.

Shen Sinian sang a song that no one had ever heard before, but the melody was very good.

After the song was finished, the others cheered, "One more song."

"Shen Sinian, you are really a hidden talent. You sing so beautifully."

Shen Sinian smiled, thought for a moment and said, "Then let's sing another song."

He thought for a moment and said, "I won't tell you the name."

Everyone was dumbfounded: "Why?"

Shen Sinian raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "Keep it a secret."

Shen Sinian sang a song called "Listen to Mom" ​​which was released a few years later. He sang this song for Xu Chuning.

He had hummed it before, and he had also played the piano in front of Xu Chuning, but he had never sung a complete song in front of Xu Chuning. This was the second song besides the one just now.

The second song he wanted to give to her.

Understanding what Shen Sinian meant and listening to the lines he sang, Xu Chuning's eyes became moist.

From the time Shen Sinian appeared until now, she had a stronger sense of being Shen Sinian's mother, and she didn't feel that he was her son. Because Shen Sinian was very mature, the childishness he occasionally showed was not enough for Xu Chuning to treat him as a child.

After this song was sung, other people also cried and were moved.

"Shen Sinian, this song of yours is so nice. Did you write it yourself?"

"I don't have this talent." Shen Sinian laughed, "I dreamed of it."

classmates:"……"

Everyone thought Shen Sinian was making up a story and didn't take it too seriously.

Xu Chuning waved to Shen Sinian, and when he sat down next to her, she asked, "What's the name of the song?"

Shen Sinian lowered his voice and said, "It's in the lyrics."

Xu Chu Ning: "Listen..."

Before she could finish her next words, Shen Sinian told her, "Listen to your mother."
