    Chapter 22 Sister, I don’t want it.

    What help is needed?

    Su Zhaolin didn’t say it out loud. She pursed her lips with a complicated expression, not knowing what she was thinking. In the end, she just smiled lightly.

    “Where are you going now?”

    The slightly serious atmosphere just now became relaxed again under her words.

    Sheng Jia and the others weren’t the kind of people who insisted on helping others. They would seriously ask if the other party needed help, and they would calmly accept it after the other party refused, returning to their usual natural and lazy appearance.

    Xu Lijing rubbed her Pocket Watch in her hand. Since she had a new goal, this Pocket Watch had been modified into a bracelet, so that it could closely accompany her at all times.

    “Haven’t you all eaten yet? Let’s go eat first today and then go to the cafe. The manager is off today, so we can’t possibly let Sheng Jia cook dinner for us, right?”

    Usually, in order to take care of the manager’s business, most of the time they would go directly to Greenery Cafe for dinner. The cafe not only has drinks, but as a store next to No. 2 High School, catering is also essential.

    The young and strong high school students eat a lot, after all, now is the time when they use their brains and physical strength the most. Usually, the manager prepares it for them, and Sheng Jia will eat dinner with them.

    Today the manager is not here, they can’t watch Sheng Jia being hungry and still having to take their orders.

    This suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone, and they quickly decided on a medium-sized restaurant nearby.

    Seafood in the Jingjiang area is famous for being fresh and cheap, and October is the golden time to eat seafood. The seafood restaurants nearby transport fresh ingredients in boxes and boxes of fishy and salty trucks every day.

    Except for Song Ji’an, the others basically grew up eating seafood. They almost became gourmets of which ones are delicious and which ones are not. They quickly ordered the dishes.

    While waiting for the dishes to be served, the girls weren’t idle either. Xu Lijing, Zhang Jing, and Zhao Yijia had deeply felt that they had embraced the thighs of learning during this period, especially now that Sheng Jia was also free, it was a rare opportunity. They quickly took out the difficult problems they had encountered in the past few days.

    In the past, they might have been a little afraid to approach Sheng Jia, but now they are very bold.

    Even Zhao Yijia dared to deliberately say in a delicate voice: “Sheng Jia, can you help me with this question?”

    Sheng Jia: …

    “Can you speak normally?” She couldn’t bear it and said.

    Zhao Yijia blinked her eyes when she heard the words, and said happily: “Okay.”

    But the fact is that Zhao Yijia wasn’t the only one who came to make trouble with her like this. After Song Ji’an helped Xu Lijing solve a problem, she couldn’t help but poke Sheng Jia’s waist. After Sheng Jia turned her head to look at her, she also imitated Zhao Yijia’s appearance and said, “Sheng Jia, I just saw that there is a seafood dish in the menu you ordered that I super like to eat. Did you order it specifically for me?”

    Song Ji’an’s voice was sweeter than Zhao Yijia’s. After deliberately imitating the Taiwanese accent, Sheng Jia broke out in goosebumps.

    Her eyes were full of the expression of “are you sick?” and she replied: “You’re thinking too much, I also like to eat it.”

    “Really?” Song Ji’an questioned with a lively expression, “I clearly remember that Sheng Jia didn’t like to eat sweet shrimp when she went out to eat with us some time ago. I’m the only one among us who likes it. Isn’t this specially ordered for me?”

    Sheng Jia: …

    “Look, I knew it,” Song Ji’an couldn’t help but laugh, barely maintaining her composure, “You’re just being stubborn and won’t admit that you care about us.”

    “Yes, and this braised hairy crab, Sheng Jia clearly doesn’t like to eat crab roe,” Zhang Jing couldn’t help but join in.

    Sheng Jia: …

    Sheng Jia was speechless, turned her face away, pretended not to hear, but the tips of her ears under her hair were slightly red.

    The girls laughed at Sheng Jia’s expression, and half of the restaurant looked over. After they realized this, they immediately restrained themselves a little and changed to laughing in a low voice.

    In fact, Sheng Jia couldn’t let go when she went out to eat with Xu Lijing some time ago. Later, after getting acquainted with the girls, she wasn’t so unfamiliar anymore, and she would be more active when ordering food or doing something else.

    She is actually very careful, she will remember who eats what and who doesn’t eat what.

    They all know this, and since they know it, they must say it out loud.

    After getting familiar with Sheng Jia, they all like Sheng Jia very much and think Sheng Jia is a very good person.

    Su Zhaolin rested her cheek on her hand and looked at them arguing, a little envious.

    “Are you usually like this?” She couldn’t help asking, “Do you have so much fun every day?”

    “No, we’ve only been this happy every day since we met,” Xu Lijing said, “I wasn’t this happy with Zhang Jing and Zhao Yijia before.”

    How her experience is, most of the school knows.

    Senior year is always very hard. Even if Lu Jing tries her best to make her school’s senior year easier, it is impossible to completely relax. Most people are in a relatively depressed mood, and there are few times when they can laugh out loud, because the college entrance examination is a sword hanging over their heads, unless they don’t have to take the college entrance examination or completely give up the college entrance examination, otherwise no one can ignore it.

    Perhaps Xu Lijing used to belong to the kind of person who didn’t care at all.

    But now she should care, but she is still so happy.

    “I also became so happy every day after meeting everyone,” Song Ji’an’s eyebrows were curved, and she tapped the table with her fingertips, “The environment is indeed very important to people.”

    Only Sheng Jia turned her head to look at Su Zhaolin, and said with a blank expression, “Do you think I look like I’m happy?”

    Her expression somehow poked at the girls’ funny bone. At first, Song Ji’an couldn’t help but laugh, and then it brought the remaining culprits to laugh as well.

    “I think you’re quite enjoying it,” Su Zhaolin commented, “Otherwise, according to your character, you should have left with a cold face in the first second they teased you.”

    Sheng Jia doesn’t want to give people face, it is absolutely impossible for her to leave any face for others, just like when she and Song Ji’an first met.

    Su Zhaolin doesn’t know how Song Ji’an and Sheng Jia met, but she has heard about Meng Yeran and Sheng Jia.

    “That’s right, Sheng Jia also likes us very much, she just doesn’t admit it. Hmm…”

    Probably because she couldn’t stand Song Ji’an talking like this, Sheng Jia finally raised her hand and quickly stuffed a peanut into her mouth.

    Song Ji’an held her chopsticks and looked at her innocently, her watery eyes were extremely agile.

    Sheng Jia took back her chopsticks, looked up at the waiter who was carrying the dishes, and changed the subject, “The dishes are here.”

    Since she said so, everyone stopped there. If they really made Sheng Jia anxious, they wouldn’t have any experience in how to coax her. It felt like it would be a very difficult operation.

    The girls immediately started eating the dishes in a lively manner.

    Song Ji’an was closest to Su Zhaolin. She felt something vibrating beside her. She glanced at the other party before lowering her voice and asking, “Is your phone vibrating all the time?”

    Su Zhaolin’s hand that was picking up food paused. She lowered her eyes, and her heart, which had just relaxed with the relaxed atmosphere, fell heavily again.

    “Yes,” she said truthfully, “It’s a call from my sister, but I don’t want to answer it.”

    Song Ji’an was a little worried, “Is everything okay?”

    “A little bit,” Su Zhaolin said, “She might be very angry, but I’m also very angry today.”

    Facts proved that Song Ji’an’s worries were not unfounded. After they finished eating and just walked out of the seafood restaurant, a black car stopped in front of them.

    After the car window was lowered, a familiar face appeared to Sheng Jia and the others.

    The woman they had seen in the high-altitude restaurant, her eyes were fixed on Su Zhaolin beside them.

    ——Su Zhaolin’s sister.

    Su Zhaolin pursed her lips, a little afraid to look at her cold and sharp eyes at the moment.

    Until the other party said: “Zhaolin, get in the car.”

    It was an order and an unquestionable tone.

    Su Zhaolin clenched her fists, not knowing where the courage came from, she raised her half-lowered eyes and said seriously: “Sister, I don’t want to.”

    “I don’t want to go home now.”
