Chapter 272 Dazzling
Although An Shijue is only four years older than Cheng Anyue, the difference between them is more than just a generation gap.
The education they received and the trajectory of their lives are completely different.
So, she would be more restrained when she is with him.
How could she smile so unguarded and sincerely like now?
But he felt that this smile was a bit dazzling!
An Shijue turned back to his room and went downstairs.
Playing football is a physical activity. After a while, Cheng Anyue and An Shikai were sweating profusely.
An Shikai looked at Cheng Anyue, put away his contempt, and said awkwardly: "You play football well."
"It's okay. I haven't played for many years." Cheng Anyue replied.
"Why?" An Shikai looked at her puzzled.
Cheng Anyue looked at him strangely, "Have you ever seen a girl playing football in physical education class?"
An Shikai thought about it and it seemed to be the case.
What Cheng Anyue didn't say was that she had just come to the big city at that time, and after transferring to another school, she couldn't change many habits, so she played football with boys, and was finally laughed at by the girls in the class as a bumpkin, a wild girl, and a rural person.
She even had a fight with those girls for this matter, and her parents were invited. Then Zhou Yue thought she was embarrassing and didn't allow her to play football anymore.
Just then, the housekeeper's voice came, "Miss, Master Shikai, it's time for lunch."
"Okay!" Cheng Anyue responded and looked at An Shikai, "Play next time, it's time to eat."
"Yeah!" An Shikai nodded.
"By the way, are your parents not here?" Cheng Anyue asked.
"My dad went to the prenatal checkup with my mom." An Shikai replied.
Cheng Anyue nodded and walked towards the gate.
"Hey!" An Shikai suddenly shouted.
Cheng Anyue turned around and looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"
An Shikai was silent for a while and shook his head, "Nothing."
Cheng Anyue didn't ask any more questions and continued to move forward.
An Shikai looked at her back, his eyes full of complexity, hoping that he had misheard that night.
Not many people were eating lunch at home, everyone seemed very busy, even Mr. An had a quick meal upstairs.
However, Cheng Anyue vaguely discovered that An Shijue was not in a particularly good mood, and his face was tense throughout the meal.
Even when she smiled at him, he responded with a cold face.
After dinner, she followed him upstairs, and when she reached the second floor, she asked, "Brother, have you encountered anything unhappy?"
An Shijue looked at her, her eyes were clear, and there was a deep worry in them.
Suddenly, the haze in his heart dissipated by half.
He was very busy and had no time to accompany her, so she needed other playmates.
"Work matters." He said.
Cheng Anyue asked, "Is it serious?"
"It's okay, it's solved."
"That's good." Cheng Anyue breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him seriously and said, "Brother, today is New Year's Eve, don't think about work anymore, let's have a good New Year."
"Yeah!" An Shijue nodded.
"Then brother, play with me in the afternoon." Cheng Anyue said.
"What do you want to play?" An Shijue asked.
Cheng Anyue thought for a while and said, "Play chess?"
"Yeah!" An Shijue nodded, "Come to the study with me."
"Okay!" Cheng Anyue followed him like a little tail.
Downstairs, An Shikai finished his meal and sat on the sofa to watch TV.
Not long after, An Zhengyang and Yu Wan came back.
Seeing her son, Yu Wan smiled and said, "Shikai, why are you down there alone? Have you finished your meal?"
"I have." An Shikai replied.
Yu Wan looked around and asked, "Where are your brother and Anyue?"
"They are upstairs." When An Shikai answered, he couldn't help but look at her more.
Unexpectedly, Yu Wan didn't ask any more questions. She just said a few words of concern to him and went upstairs with An Zhengyang.
