So all the wives were waiting for me to break up with them.

163. Until the mountains crumble and the heavens and earth unite, only then will I part from you.

The meatballs for lunch were indeed delicious.

Chen Tangtang ate half of the six-yuan pork by herself, while Zhou You and Ning Moxin snatched the other half from her bowl.

After swallowing the last meatball, Zhou You was about to wash the dishes when his mother, Xiao Yan, whom he hadn't contacted in a long time, suddenly called.

"Mother?"

"I have some things to take care of here, and I don't know when I can go back. Son, you must take care of yourself and not overwork yourself." Xiao Yan said bluntly, almost making Zhou You think that Xiao Yan already knew that he had two girlfriends.

"I see."

The child seems to have nothing to say to his parents except for "uh-huh" sounds. Even though Xiao Yan looks more like his sister, her mentality is incredibly young.

The suppression in the bloodline still cannot be erased.

"My son is getting less and less adorable as he gets older. He used to cling to my leg and say he wanted milk when he was little..."

"Dear Mother, if you have nothing else, I'll hang up now." Knowing every embarrassing thing that has happened to you from childhood to adulthood may be one of the reasons why a child can never hold their head high in front of their parents.

"I really don't have anything to do. I just wanted to let you know I won't be going back anytime soon. Oh, by the way, Yuzu has a parent-teacher conference in a few days. Can you go in my place?"

"Parents' meeting?" Zhou You thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Okay, I will attend on time."

As for sending Chen Tangtang? He felt he should treat Chen Youzi better.

Don't let her die in her final year of high school.

"Then I'll trouble you. I'll send you some local specialties from your grandparents' house in a few days. Your mom and dad have important things to do."

Beep beep beep~~

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yan, who was several provinces away from Zhou You, touched her fair chin and put her foot on Zhou's father's lap.

"Why didn't you tell your son about Chuchu?" Mr. Zhou reminded him from the side.

"I forgot." Xiao Yan's face showed an innocence beyond her years.

"You're not deliberately keeping this from me, are you?" Zhou's father questioned, after all, Xiao Chuchu's situation was very special, and normal people wouldn't believe she was their godmother if they met her.

Xiao Yan nudged Zhou's father's belly with her foot, annoyed. "Why would I lie to you? I'm your wife, you know."

"Of course you will. You often lied to me when we were young. Every time after an exam I asked you if you were confident, you would say no, but you would still come out as the top student in the whole school."

Xiao Yan's behavior deeply hurt Zhou's father's young heart.

"Hmph." Xiao Yan shook her little foot, which was being held by Zhou's father. "Are you going to hold a grudge about something like this for the rest of your life? I've given you everything I have, what more do you want?"

When she resorted to her shameless tactics, Zhou's father naturally gave in.

Xiao Yan, having gained the upper hand, spat at him relentlessly. Zhou's father rolled his eyes from time to time and retaliated by lightly pinching her little feet, and the atmosphere suddenly became very warm.

The bond between childhood sweethearts cannot be explained in a few words, especially between someone like her and him who have been in love for a lifetime and will continue to be.

Perhaps only.

Until the mountains crumble and the heavens and earth unite, I will never part from you.

I can say a few words about it.

…………

A book makes a long story; a bookless story makes a short story.

Time flew by and it was time for Chen Youzi's parent-teacher conference.

Zhou You put on adult clothes, combed his hair like an adult, looked at his increasingly handsome face in the mirror, and nodded in satisfaction.

I will absolutely not embarrass Chen Youzi.

"Brother, let's go!"

Chen Youzi excitedly pushed the door open and came in. Her face was slightly flushed with excitement, and her plain blue and white school uniform could not hide her cute and sweet appearance as a super beautiful girl.

Zhou You put on the Patek Philippe watch that Yun Mingyue had insisted on giving him a few days ago, glanced at the time, and nodded with a smile, "It's time to set off."

The two left home hand in hand to go to school. They didn't seem sweet; instead, they looked more like a father leading his daughter, a picture of paternal love and filial piety.

But Chen Youzi was still basking in the happiness of holding hands with her brother, her face beaming with joy.

Girl, wake up! Straighten up!

Zhou You's home is actually not far from the high school, only about a 20-minute walk away. So, after walking for a short while with Chen Youzi, Zhou You saw many parents and students who had also come to the school for the parent-teacher meeting.

The first parent-teacher meeting for senior high school students is very important. Teachers will communicate with parents about many things related to their children's studies, ensuring that the children can devote themselves to their studies without any distractions.

"Daughter, what are you looking at?" A beautiful woman nearby looked in the direction her daughter was looking.

"It's Senior Zhou You." The beautiful and energetic senior high school girl was excited. She never expected to see that once-famous figure.

She used to have average grades, but she worked hard for love and turned her life around to be in the top ten of the whole school. When her younger sister was being bullied, she single-handedly confronted the entire bullying team...

He was always so earnest and hardworking, yet he remained humble no matter what he did, treating people with the warmth of spring. And of course, most importantly...

"He truly is my idol, he's so handsome!" The girl clutched her heart, completely captivated by Zhou You's deliberately mature appearance today.

"You know that man, my daughter?" The beautiful woman's eyes lit up. "How about I take you upstairs to catch up?"

"Mom? Why are you being so enthusiastic?"

“After my divorce from your father, I lived alone for more than ten years. Maybe it’s time to find a companion. Besides, he seems to be very rich.”

The beautiful woman's gaze lingered on Zhou You for a moment. His exquisitely crafted designer clothes and the high-end watch that occasionally peeked from his wrist—he was a handsome young man who was both rich and good-looking, full of energy and stamina. It was truly enough to make one's legs go weak, no, one lose control.

daughter:"???"

Mom, what are you saying?!

Wherever Zhou You went, not everyone stopped to look at him, but it wasn't far off. The girls blushed with excitement, the boys were envious and somewhat admiring, and some single female parents even stared at him with burning eyes.

He stopped at the school gate with a smile on his face, greeting the boys and girls who surrounded him. He could accurately say the name of each person. I didn't expect that even though he had graduated, he was still so popular with the younger students.

He probably didn't do much that they would remember fondly during his three years of high school, right?

As Zhou You was silently pondering this, a group of teachers walked out of the school, led by the school principal.

There happened to be an ordinary Buick parked on the side of the road, and two people got out of the car.

"Welcome to our school for your guidance." The principal hurriedly greeted the person who had just gotten out of the car, his face beaming like a chrysanthemum.

Ning Moxin's gaze swept past the group of people in front of her and settled on the young man who was dressed exceptionally handsomely today.

Without thinking, she quickly took a few steps, leaving the teaching team behind, and stood in front of him.

She tossed her hair, her eyes filled with the delight of the unexpected encounter, and her pretty face broke into a smile even brighter than the one from the principal, making it seem as if time had reversed and it was already March.

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect to run into you here, Xiao You."

164. Yuzu, you must be strong!

The noisy environment at the school gate, which had been filled with chatter, quieted down for a moment.

It was because of this beautiful woman who looked like an important person that she left everyone else behind and greeted Zhou You immediately, and it was also because of her breathtakingly beautiful smile.

When Zhou You was with Ning Moxin, he found that he couldn't help but feel an urge to say a few words in a literary style to praise her.

For example, her lips parted slightly, revealing pearly white teeth; her eyes sparkled, radiating light; the peach blossoms had not yet fallen, her rouge was faint; she was half-swaying in the spring breeze, half-leaning against the wall.

"What are you thinking about?" Ning Moxin asked with a hint of reproach.

"I'm just surprised to run into you here, Sister Mo."

Zhou You snapped out of his daze and subconsciously walked into the school with Ning Moxin. The students who had been surrounding him had already consciously parted to make way for him. Ning Mengmeng, still indignant, pulled Chen Youzi, whose face was ashen, and followed behind the two of them, muttering to herself.

Just inside the school gate, you can see a small pond filled with lush green lotus leaves, about the size of a three-compartment soup bowl. Several double-petaled lotus flowers of varying shades are in bloom, and a tiny golden coin turtle peeks out, wagging its short legs as it swims back and forth among the lotus leaves, which is quite amusing.

Zhou Youlu glanced at the golden tortoise twice.

"What's so special about this turtle?"

"I was wondering why this turtle doesn't grow bigger. Some of my classmates have been talking about it since the first year of high school, all the way to the third year. They said they'd catch it and stew it to nourish their bodies once it grows up, since high school life is so tough."

"Pfft~~"

Ning Moxin raised her hand to cover her mouth and chuckled, "Golden turtles aren't cheap. If your classmate really makes a move, he'll probably get whipped and roasted for the entire high school."

Zhou You told Ning Moxin about his funny stories from high school, and Ning Moxin listened quietly with her usual gentle smile.

But it seemed a little different. The way she looked at him wasn't the serene kind, but rather... In early spring, when the peach tree branches were just beginning to sprout pale pink buds, shyly trembling in the cool breeze.

The teachers, students, and parents nearby all felt a strange sense of emotion as they watched the two.

It was the same mother and daughter from before.

"Mom?" The daughter tugged at her unmoving mother.

The beautiful woman stared blankly at Zhou You and Ning Moxin's receding figures, side by side, for a long while before she couldn't help but sigh, "I suddenly believe in love again."

After being divorced and raising her child alone for over a decade, she is now experiencing a girlish flutter in her heart because of other people's loving relationship.

But this sweet feeling, this beautiful love, made her girlish heart pound uncontrollably.

"Mom, you still have a girlish heart?" the daughter asked in surprise.

"What kind of talk is that?" The beautiful woman slapped her daughter's bottom. "Why can't I have a girlish heart?"

The daughter rubbed her slightly sore bottom. "A teenage girl is a woman between twelve and eighteen years old. Mom, you're more than twice my age."

"You're quite the talker." The beautiful woman pinched her daughter's cheek. "I'm going to have a serious talk with your teacher about your recent grades. If they've slipped, I'm confiscating your phone and everything else! That way you won't be watching weird stuff all the time. You're even talking back to me now."

daughter:"???"

How did things suddenly escalate to the topic of your grades?

When you parents can't win an argument with our kids, you like to use grades to change the subject!

Ha, shameful adults.

…………

"Youzi." Ning Mengmeng quietly nudged Chen Youzi.

"What?" Chen Youzi stared intently at the backs of the two people in front of her, thinking she was the most pitiful girl in the world.
