Chapter 32 She told me that she had a good impression of you.
Zhou Heng was silent for a few seconds, then said:
"Huh? Tang Zhi? I'm fine with anything, but you actually became friends with her?"
"Hmm, that won't work..."
Yin Mengran lowered her head slightly, looking worried about being scolded.
She was afraid Zhou Heng would disagree, afraid she would make a mistake; after all, she was someone who depended on others, and she had to be careful in everything she did and said.
Zhou Heng turned away and continued writing, saying, "Of course, I should thank you."
"Thank me?"
Yin Mengran was a little puzzled. What did she have that deserved to be thanked?
Zhou Heng nodded and explained:
"Yes, when she was in her first year of high school, her mother told me that she hoped I could help her make some friends so that she wouldn't be left without anyone to talk to at school."
"But that really overestimates me. If I knew how to make friends, I would have done it myself long ago. So for the past two years, I've been the one hanging out with her. Even though she seems indifferent on the surface, you're probably quite happy to be friends with her."
"No way?" Yin Mengran's eyes widened, somewhat incredulous. Was the truth really as exaggerated as Zhou Heng had described?
She knew she was secretly overjoyed, but judging from Tang Zhi's expression, she seemed quite indifferent.
"Yes, she told me that she has a good impression of you."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Mengran's face lit up with a smile, her eyes sparkling with joy.
She was worried that Tang Zhi might dislike her, but hearing Zhou Heng say it himself, she instantly felt relieved.
"Yeah, really, so if she offends you in any way, don't take it to heart. She just hasn't spent time with her friends in a long time."
"Uh-huh!"
Yin Mengran happily agreed. She wasn't angry about what happened today, nor did she feel offended.
She was just...shy because her inner thoughts had been seen through.
Having resolved her inner anxieties, Yin Mengran felt much better. When tutoring Zhou Heng, she often had a smile on her face.
Around 7 p.m., the two of them got a little hungry. Zhou Heng put down his pen and stood up.
"I'll go cook."
"and many more..."
"Ok?"
Zhou Heng turned his head and looked at Yin Mengran with a puzzled expression, wondering why she had called him back.
Yin Mengran stood up and said, "Um... I'll do it. Aren't you supposed to be focusing on your studies?"
"Can you cook?"
"Yes, I will."
Yin Mengran nodded firmly, then added, "I just don't know if it will suit your taste."
"It's okay, give it a try."
Zhou Heng didn't care at all, because he really wanted to seize the time to study. If it weren't for Yin Mengran being there,
He actually just wanted to cook some instant noodles and make do, since he was alone anyway.
But now that Yin Mengran is here, he can't just deal with her like that.
Upon learning that Yin Mengran could cook, he was naturally willing to let her do it, as it would save him a lot of time.
"okay."
Yin Mengran went to the kitchen and started cooking. She remembered that when she used to live at home, she often cooked for her parents.
Unfortunately, that opportunity is gone forever.
Half an hour later, the fire was lit in the kitchen. Although Zhou Heng wanted to learn a little more at this time,
However, his attention would still occasionally drift towards the kitchen, because he had never seen Yin Mengran cook.
I'm worried she might make a mistake, that the food she prepares might be inedible, or that an accident might happen...
Fortunately, the process went smoothly, and after about an hour, Zhou Heng smelled a delicious aroma wafting from the kitchen.
Yin Mengran carried the food to the table and called out to Zhou Heng:
"Alright! Let's eat!"
"Well, here we come."
Zhou Heng put down his pen, went to the dining table, and saw the food on it.
First of all, the steamed rice looks fine; each grain is plump, and the texture seems normal.
Both dishes were excellent in appearance, aroma, and taste, without any flaws, which put Zhou Heng at ease.
"It looks pretty good."
“Try it!”
Yin Mengran smiled and gestured for Zhou Heng to sit down.
Zhou Heng picked up his chopsticks, took a quick bite, frowned slightly at first, then nodded silently, praising:
"Yeah, it's delicious."
"Really? I'm glad you like it."
Yin Mengran immediately felt relieved; she was confident in her cooking skills.
But I'm still very worried that Zhou Heng won't like it.
Now that I've passed the test, that's more important than anything else.
Yin Mengran also sat down, ready to eat, and said, "If you like, I'll do all the cooking from now on, so you can save a lot of time."
"..."
Zhou Heng didn't reply immediately. He looked up at his workout area; he hadn't exercised in a long time.
There's definitely not enough time for me these days; I basically have no free time after school.
It's simply impossible to squeeze out an hour or two to exercise.
If Yin Mengran were to cook, it would indeed save time, allowing her to exercise or do other things.
But in his heart, Yin Mengran was, after all, a guest, so how could he let a guest cook?
After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Heng spoke, saying:
"Let's take turns, one day or two days is fine."
Yin Mengran paused, as if deep in thought. After a while, she seemed to understand what Zhou Heng meant and nodded.
"okay!"
After dinner, the two continued studying. Around 10 p.m., they both took showers.
After Zhou Heng came out of the bathroom, he sat down at the table, picked up a pen,
He had originally planned to study for a few more hours, but after yawning, drowsiness instantly overwhelmed him, engulfing his mind.
For a moment, his eyelids felt heavy, as if they were about to close completely.
He knew he hadn't been getting enough sleep for almost a week, and the thought of having a day off tomorrow and getting out of school early today made him feel sleepy.
"what--"
He yawned again, this time even more sleepy, so he quickly got up and went to the bedroom to sleep.
Otherwise, he'll probably fall asleep on the table in no time.
He went into the bedroom, collapsed onto the bed, and on his side, without even bothering to cover himself with a blanket, closed his eyes and fell fast asleep.
All the fatigue he had accumulated over the past week was released at this moment.
Meanwhile, Yin Mengran was still taking a shower in the bathroom, unaware that Zhou Heng had already gone to bed in the bedroom.
After she finished showering, put on her pajamas, and stepped out of the bathroom, she found it deserted.
The seat Zhou Heng was sitting in was empty, and the books on the table were still open.
"Eh?"
