Shen Jie rolled her eyes, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.

"Yes, yes, yes." Shen Tianyun put down the macarons in her hand and lifted an upside-down plate from another plate: "I was late queuing today and almost didn't get any. I ended up buying this one, and Mom specially saved half of hers for you..."

"Stop talking nonsense. How can you lie to my face without batting an eye?" Shen Jie scolded, then turned to Xiao Yao and said, "Tianyun bought extra for you."

“I can show you the receipt!” Shen Tianyun exclaimed.

"I didn't like it, so I left it!" Shen Jie said in a panic.

Xiao Yao roughly understood, sat down at the table, and put his hands together: "Thank you, wife! I'm starting to eat—are you just having dessert tonight?"

"Here, there are hamburgers too." Shen Tianyun bent down and took out another paper bag from under the table: "Convenient, delicious, and quick."

After the family finished dinner, Xiao Yao picked up the bag of clothes he had borrowed from the junior high school student and urged Shen Jie to try them on.

"You can go out now," Shen Jie instructed.

“I’ll turn around and not look at you.” Xiao Yao faced the wall.

"Why are you so annoying..." Shen Jie clicked her tongue.

Please don't leave me alone in that cold darkness across the way!

“…Rogue.” Shen Jie muttered to herself, but still changed into the uniform that Xiao Yao had brought back.

“My dad said that in the past, someone like me would have been executed for hooliganism,” Xiao Yao said.

“My dad is absolutely right—okay, turn around now.” Shen Jie emphasized “my dad.”

Xiao Yao turned around and looked Shen Jie up and down.

This is a set of summer uniforms for junior high school students in Shanghai: white short-sleeved shirts and dark pants, with uniform color and style regardless of gender—a common sight on the streets during the summer.

Xiao Yao's DNA stirred. Why is it that no matter what she wears, she can be so irresistibly cute?

To make the act more convincing, Xiao Yao even borrowed two red handkerchiefs for her—at this moment, the girl was clumsily tying a knot in the red handkerchief on her chest: "How...how do I tie it again? I've forgotten."

(Note: Unlike other parts of China, junior high school students in Shanghai also wear red scarves.)

"How clumsy! Let me do it." Shen Tianyun stepped forward and helped Shen Jie tie the red scarf.

"Does it look like it?" Shen Jie opened her arms, spun around, and asked Shen Tianyun.

"It's beautiful, really beautiful," Xiao Yao said.

"Who asked if you're pretty or not? Do you look like a middle school student?" Shen Jie said fiercely.

"It's so similar, it's uncanny! And the clothes really fit perfectly," Xiao Yao said.

"It's like it stepped right out of a period drama, absolutely amazing!" Shen Tianyun clapped her hands: "Xiao Yao, get me a set too!"

Xiao Yao chuckled dryly, trying to appease his daughter, while Shen Jie suddenly opened the wardrobe door and looked at herself in the full-length mirror from left to right.

This level of disguise seems far from being "safe".

Should I wrap my chest up and dress up like a boy?

This hairstyle is considered short for women, but too long for men.

Or should we get it fixed again tomorrow? But Xiao Yao will probably start complaining again; I promised him I'd let it grow longer again...

Wait a minute? I don't care if he dies.

In fact, Shen Jie could also sense that the atmosphere had become more relaxed since Xiao Yao came back and they ate macarons together.

It seems, inexplicably, we've returned to the harmonious rhythm of a family of three.

However, Shen Jie hadn't gotten over that hurdle in her heart yet, and even if she had, she didn't want to let him go so quickly and easily.

They had a fight in the morning and made up by evening. Doesn't my lady-in-law have any dignity?

It's like when couples are arguing, one of them says something witty, and the other can't help but want to laugh. But if they laugh, they'll break the ice and start making up, so they have to desperately press their teeth against their palate to hold it in.

So Shen Jie put on a very unhappy face and said, "What are you still doing here? Go home, goodnight."

“Um…” Xiao Yao scratched his head.

"Let's go!" Shen Jie said angrily.

“Little Daddy,” Shen Tianyun advised, “Space, space.”

Xiao Yao was sent back to his room looking dejected, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

I'm still quite disappointed.

He had gotten used to Shen Jie being by his side all the time, and now that he was back to being alone, he really needed to readjust.

Last night and tonight, in less than 24 hours, the treatment has really... plummeted from heaven to earth.

Regardless, one should remain optimistic, after all, things are still moving in a positive direction, Xiao Yao thought.

At least Shen Jie no longer mentions the word "breakup".

At least, he originally thought he would be blocked outside the mirror for 3-7 days and would not be able to see Shen Jie, but he ended up having a family dinner for three that night, and Shen Jie was able to talk to him properly.

...Let's just say we should talk nicely, shall we?

At least her attitude is much better than those girls who rejected my confession before?

Forget it, stop thinking about it and take it slow.

The pressure from Song Haijian and the sudden attack from Mount Tai, on the surface, are a crisis and pressure, but from another perspective, they may also have given him and Shen Jie a centripetal force to... push them back together.

Where there is persecution, there is unity and resistance.

Shen Jie was always concerned about her school and exams, while the pressure from Taishan gave her the opportunity to work together with Shen Jie and also gave her a reason to re-enter the room on the other side of the mirror.

If it weren't for this huge misunderstanding, she wouldn't have moved herself and all her personal belongings into Shen Tianyun's room. Otherwise, she would have been caught red-handed by Taishan today and would probably be tied up on Zhang Zhengkai's wedding bed by now.

Okay, it probably won't be that fast.

In short, this should be considered a very good result.

As the old saying goes, good fortune may be a harbinger of misfortune, and misfortune may be a harbinger of good fortune; today's various changes and turning points are the best illustration of this.

Lost in these wild thoughts, Xiao Yao calmed himself down, boiled water to wash his bottom and feet, and lay down on the bed.

Grass, what's that hard, cool thing on my back?

A... kitchen knife?

Luckily, I had the knife lying flat on the bed.

Xiao Yao, barefoot and shakily, ran to the soap display room and hung the knife up again.

It's definitely too early to go to bed now. Shouldn't I go next door to warm up with my wife and kids and watch a movie together?

Why not give Yu Luying a call and chat? Xiao Yao idly scrolled through his phone's contacts, swiping past Yu Luying's name, then past Zhao Xiaomei's.

Forget it, let's do our summer homework.

Xiao Yao was startled by his own thought. Had he really become that bored?

This is the first time in a long time that I've had the urge to do homework, and it's at the very beginning of summer vacation that I'm doing my summer homework.

This kind of thing...

I definitely need to practice and get myself in the right state for the makeup exam in three days.

Xiao Yao found the book "Enjoy Your Summer Vacation," a very long book with a cover featuring a boy and a girl holding hands. Daiyu said its only purpose was to make students have a bad summer vacation.

Xiao Yao brought the book "Enjoy Your Summer Vacation" to his nose and took a deep breath, savoring the fresh scent of ink it emitted.

There was a time when I especially loved the smell of new books; there was a time when I was a good student...

Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime ago.

Actually, after the final exams, I rushed to the hospital to be with Shen Jie and didn't collect my summer homework at all.

This thing was sent to my home by Song Haijian himself (I think?). In addition to "Having a Good Summer Vacation", there was a lot of extra stuff that Song Haijian added for his classmates - such a thick stack of test papers.

Come on, good student Xiao Yao! Let the world see your strength!

Xiao Yao opened the first page of "Having a Good Summer Vacation," only to find it was about the dreaded subject of math.

However, his obsessive-compulsive disorder still led him to start from the first page.

……

……

What's wrong?

Are you unsure about these multiple-choice questions?

Let's take a look at the questions below first.

In triangle ABC, the sides opposite angles A, B, and C are a, b, and c, respectively. Given that a = 2√2, b = 5, and c = √13.

(I) Find the measure of angle C

(II) Find the value of sinA;

(III) ...

Xiao Yao stared blankly at the summer homework in front of him, which looked like a wordless book from heaven. The ink seemed to have turned into tiny ants, twisting and crawling in front of his eyes...

what's the situation?
