Chapter 192: Time to Go Home
Hotel.
After a few girls left, Chen Yuan had a private conversation with Sakura.
“Little monster, will protect little monster…”
He held up the monster doll she made against the monster bear in her hand.
“We’re going home, okay?” Chen Yuan gently said.
Sakura bit her lip: “I’m sorry…”
Hearing Chen Yuan say the words they once agreed upon, her eyes turned red as she looked down…
She slowly curled up, becoming a small ball again…
“It’s okay…”
Chen Yuan hurriedly replied, slowly moving closer to her, still stroking her golden hair like he would stroke a little kitten…
If there was anyone he devoted himself to the most, it would undoubtedly be his pure and greatest contribution to Sakura…
He had almost never acted according to the mission from the very beginning…
He had never blamed her; everything was willingly given from his heart…
“I’m still living well, right…?”
“It’s all right, it’s all right…”
“We’re going home…”
Sakura could no longer hold back her emotions and rushed into Chen Yuan’s embrace…
In truth, she was simply unable to get past that hurdle; she continually tried to get close to Chen Yuan, naturally longing to be near him…
After a long while.
Sakura regained her calm.
Chen Yuan was still gently patting her back, soothing her softly like he did when she was curled up…
Suddenly, Sakura softly said: “Yuan, I want to hear that…”
“Huh?”
Chen Yuan’s mind couldn’t react immediately.
Hesitantly he asked: “Which, which one?”
“That one…”
Sakura pouted, clearly remembering the song that deeply touched her that night, humming a little bit to remind Chen Yuan.
“Huh?”
Compared to Chen Yuan, Sakura sounded much better when she hummed.
Her voice was sweet, and humming such a pure little tune felt like adding a purification buff, giving Chen Yuan a sense that his mind and body were being refreshed…
It was like returning to that sunset afternoon, coming home from school and watching Pleasant Goat with friends…
But she had already listened to herself once and could hum it so well.
Suddenly, Chen Yuan’s face felt hot.
If he remembered correctly, he knew just how out of tune he was when he hummed back then!
At that time, he was merely trying to hum a little to create a peaceful sleeping atmosphere for Sakura, who had nightmares!
He never thought Sakura actually heard it!
She remembered it so clearly!?
But looking at the bright-eyed Sakura in his arms, looking sweet and expectant at him…
Embarrassed, Chen Yuan could only muster up the courage to start humming!
This time, with the equipment, Chen Yuan even took out his phone to look for a backing track!
If conditions allowed, let’s embellish it a bit, otherwise, it would be too unpleasant…
Back then, it was because the atmosphere was right, and now it was about creating the atmosphere.
But in reality…
Whether it sounds good or not has never been important.
What truly matters is always the person.
In Sakura’s eyes, no matter what Chen Yuan sang for her, she would like it.
Sakura liked Chen Yuan the most.
Chen Yuan: “Here it comes.”
She curled up into a small ball again, like a little kitten waiting for its owner to hold her…
Seeing this, Chen Yuan covered her with a blanket and ruffled her hair…
“Look at the starlight, look at the moon~”
“Look at my heart~”
“The moon represents my heart~”
“Dreams are so sweet~”
“The road to pursue them never ends~”
“Even if it’s far away~”
“I won’t lose my direction~”
“I have the starlight~”
…..
…..
“One day, one year~”
“I’ll finally return to your side~”
“Please, starlight, please, moon~”
“Listen to my wishes~”
…..
“la la la~ la la la la~”
“la la la…… la la~”
“la la la~ la la la la~”
“la la la…… la la~”
…..
…..
Chen Yuan didn’t know that what he thought was an embarrassing singing voice had already reached the ears of all the girls!
In fact, as long as the girl likes you, all the flaws you think you have will become points they admire.
“Darling even sings to put her to sleep!” Yu said outside the door, listening with her ear, filled with jealousy.
“What’s the big deal? The teacher also tells me stories to help me sleep…” Chloe said, looking at Yu calmly.
Yu: “!!?”
“My brother also sings and tells stories to me…” Lin Shuxue said, not willing to back down, pouting.
After saying that, Yu finally looked at Leia.
Leia said flatly: “The Commander has never sung or told me stories.”
Hearing this, Yu’s mood became slightly balanced; although she knew there were no particularly beautiful memories between her and Chen Yuan, the truth was too painful, and she still felt deeply unbalanced in her heart!!
“Hey, wait, but the Commander did celebrate my birthday and sang birthday songs with everyone.”
Leia’s words were like the last straw that broke the camel’s back!!
“!!!”
“You all!!”
“Unfair!!! I want it too!!!”
…..
After the National Day holiday, the days seemed to fly by even faster.
Chen Yuan found a new apartment, connected with the one across the hall, making it possible for a few people to live together.
Although having connected balconies was quite dangerous for Chen Yuan, for those girls, the blocked-off balcony was almost equivalent to having none.
Chen Yuan mainly considered this point, as finding a suitable place near the university was truly difficult…
Furthermore, his tasks gradually increased; what was originally supposed to be the most leisurely time during junior year had become his busiest days.
He had to move, take care of Sakura, watch over the girls, and also be busy with starting a business, exams, and studying…
If he fails a course in junior year, there’s only one chance for a retest.
If he doesn’t pass the retest in senior year, he won’t get his degree!
Similarly, the first semester of junior year is the most crucial period for planning one’s post-graduation path.
You have to decide whether to continue studying, take the graduate entrance exam, look for a government job, civil service position, or just wait for the spring or autumn recruitment to find a job. Choosing a job means that junior year can still be spent relaxing for a year, but senior year will be frantic with job interviews.
After lying around in the first two years of university, it was time to think about what to do after graduation, rather than just waiting in line as you did in school.
Otherwise, what’s waiting for you is graduation and unemployment.
One day, just as Chen Yuan returned home from the renovated shop, he received a call from Huang Zhisheng.
“Hey, what’s up?”
“Hua Zi broke up; want to come drink with him?”
On the other end, Huang Zhisheng said relatively seriously.
Chen Yuan, halfway home, wanted to check on Sakura, as she was the only one who had nothing to do, and he wasn’t very reassured.
“Okay, send me the location; I’ll be there shortly.”
After hanging up, Chen Yuan thought about Hua Zi and his girlfriend…
They had been together ever since they graduated high school, over two years…
How could they just break up…
In this day and age, sigh…
Chen Yuan clicked his tongue and shook his head.
He then returned home and opened the door.
“Sakura?”
A golden-haired little head popped out from her room.
Clearly delighted.
“Come on, I’ll take you to meet some friends.”
