Chapter 19
Back in the classroom, He Jiayu and Chi Yuanfeng went up to him . He Jiayu then asked, “Has Sis Ke rented a place for us yet?”
“Yes,” Sheng Yize replied .
“Brother Yize, why do you look like that?” Chi Yuanfeng looked surprised . He rarely ever saw Sheng Yize appear this gentle .
Sheng Yize responded with a profound smile which gave Chi Yuanfeng goosebumps .
Of the other two members of Starry Night, Chi Yuanfeng found Sheng Yize the scarier one . Others might think he was handsome and cool, but only Chi Yuanfeng knew what type of “scheming devil” hid behind that face .
Well, if you treasured your life, stay away from the devil!
Chi Yuanfeng retreated to his seat and He Jiayu followed suit, chuckling . “Xiao Feng, do you smell spring in the room?”
“Brother Jiayu, are you alright? It’s autumn right now!” Chi Yuanfeng didn’t understand .
He Jiayu only smiled and didn’t say another word .

That Friday night, Papa An came home and An Xiaxia hugged him excitedly . “Daddy, you finally came back! I missed you so much!”
Papa An was an amiable and benevolent middle-aged man . Time had left its mark on his face, but it did little to mask his dashing looks . One could still imagine how girls must have fallen victim to that face when he was young .
He rubbed his daughter’s head affectionately . “Good girl . I’ll make dinner in a moment . Is your older brother not back yet?”
“Not yet . He seems to have a difficult case this time . He called to tell me that it’ll be at least half a month before he can come back,” replied An Xiaxia before she went right back to buttering him up . “Daddy, I want braised pork, sweet and sour ribs, and steamed fish! I want everything!”
“No problem . ” Papa An gazed warmly at his excited daughter who couldn’t seem to stay still .
An Xiaxia was a meat lover who would lose her rationality once she saw meat . After eating lavishly, she helped her dad wash the dishes before returning to her room to sleep, forgetting completely about her debt .

Early next morning .
The sun was shining brightly and a light breeze swept through the air .
An Xiaxia rubbed her eyes and rolled around lazily as she woke up .
Her cell phone let out a sound and she clicked open the notification to find a text message .
“An Xiaxia, as I said, you can’t hide from me . ”
An Xiaxia looked at the sender and it was Sheng Yize!
Her hand jerked and she nearly dropped the phone . Quivering, she checked the message several times; it really was from Sheng Yize…
Mhm… Looks like I really have to tell Daddy about this incident…
She didn’t even bother to change her clothes and rushed downstairs in her pajamas right away .
The first floor was the An family’s coffee shop, but it had been closed while Papa An was on vacation . It reopened today and Papa An was busy working at the coffee machines .
An Xiaxia was trying to find the right moment to break the news to her dad when an energetic figure suddenly came bursting through the door . Kang Jian glowed with pride as he walked in and leaned on An Xiaxia’s shoulder, showing off . “Xiaxia, look . These are the shoes my mom bought me yesterday!”
An Xiaxia gave them a glance . They were the latest skateboarding shoes from VANS and they looked nice on Kang Jian .
“Not bad, not bad,” she replied in a perfunctory manner while she racked her brain for a way to bring up her issue to her dad .
Kang Jian acted like he was on drugs as he began to excitedly sing, “My sneakers, fashion, fashion, the best fashion . On the road home, I can’t control myself . Rub, rub 1 …”
The quirky, infectious song entranced An Xiaxia and she danced along with him despite herself, twisting her waist and ankles as she sang along, “Rub, rub, on the smooth floor~ Rub!”
Papa An laughed as he watched the pair act crazy and get high by themselves .
At that moment, a teasing voice came from the door . “Excuse me, is this the An family home?”
