Chapter 237 The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (1)

The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (XI)

Song Ning, who was tending to coriander, turned his head with a surprised expression.

Lance's eyes flickered slightly. Is that true?

It seemed that his little prince had lost his will due to the Son of the World. At this age, he should be worrying about his future at school, but his little prince's mind was already filled with the daily necessities.

Song Ning really didn't expect it, and he didn't expect Lance to suggest this to him.

There was a hint of insecurity in the depths of his shocked eyes.

"Me? I haven't been to school for several years and I've forgotten everything. Even if..."

"Shhh."

Lance used his fingers to block the words he didn't want to hear, his eyes extremely gentle.

"Ningning, just tell me if you want to go."

Song Ning stared at him blankly, and suddenly his eyes turned red.

How could you not want to?

Many times when he occasionally saw his students during his busy schedule, he seemed to be able to see himself, who were also carefree and studious when their parents were still alive.

Only he can't.

Because Ergouzi is younger than him, he is the older brother.

He has been telling himself this for several years, because he is the older brother, so he has to support the family.

It’s enough to have someone in the family who can study, but someone has to earn money.

Even his neighbors, after hearing that he had dropped out of school, expressed regret before praising him for his actions.

No one ever asked him if he wanted to go to school.

"Ning Ning?"

Lance's gentle voice brought Song Ning back to his senses. He looked at the man in front of him with complicated eyes, who was so familiar with him as if he was really his partner, but shook his head.

"There are too many places to spend money at home, and running this small shop for a long time is not good for my health. I want to switch to other types of catering, maybe, um."

He was gagged again.

But this time it was Lance's lips.

Song Ning widened his eyes, unable to believe what had just happened.

Lance pulled back and said confidently, "Ningning, I don't like what you just said, so I'll take it back for you."

Even if you don’t like to hear it, you can’t kiss him!

Song Ning's pupils trembled with accusation.

"I don't like being treated like this by Ningning, who is not real. Ningning can be her true self in front of me."

Lance ignored his accusations, even with a hint of aftertaste.

"Leave the matter of making money to support the family to me. Ningning, you don't need to think about this at all. If you want to work hard to support the family, you can work hard to support me after you graduate from college."

What he said sounded nice, but Song Ning, who had been supporting Ergouzi's studies alone for several years, fully understood the magnitude of the responsibility implied by this statement.

Besides, Lance is not their family at all, so he doesn't need to take this responsibility.

Song Ning's eyes turned, and Lance understood and took the initiative.

"Ningning, are you still going to say that I'm not yours?"

Song Ning was stunned. How did Lance know what he wanted to say?

And what he was thinking about were not his family members, but his people.

There's a world of difference between the two, right?

Lance pretended not to notice, his tone was resentful and contained a hint of grievance.

"But if what Ningning said is true, then what I just did was my first kiss."

Song Ning's pupils trembled.

What? First kiss?

Lance said confidently, "Ningning took my first kiss, you're not going to admit it, right? Then Ningning, you're such a scumbag, I won't allow you to take my first kiss and not be responsible for me."

"It's obviously you, um."

Another kiss as light as a feather, Song Ning's eyes became slightly unfocused.

How did things develop to this point?

"Ningning, if you continue to say these things that I don't like to hear, I will still kiss you."

Lance licked the corner of his mouth, unable to hide the pleasure in his tone.

"But if Ningning wants a kiss from me, then it's not impossible for her to deliberately go against me. I welcome that."

Song Ning's expression was blank.

Song Ning simply couldn't understand why there were people in the world who could be so shameless and so confident in saying these things.

He wanted to struggle, but was afraid that Lance would do what he said.

For the first time, I understood why strong women have been afraid of clinging men since ancient times, and strong men are afraid of it too!

Song Ning struggled to resist in the first round, but to no avail.

Finally, they signed the agreement with tears under unequal circumstances. Next week, they will go to the school to ask if it can be arranged for Song Ning to go to school again. However, Lance can no longer forbid him from doing this or that, and he has to assign some housework to him appropriately.

Lance readily agreed.

Although Song Ning felt it was a bit strange that he agreed so readily, he couldn't think of anything wrong after being distracted by those two kisses.

It was not until they went to the school and asked about returning to school to repeat their studies that Song Ning realized something.

If he is studying, where will he find the free time to help?

But it was too late to regret now. They had just restored his student status, and the fact that he had to repeat his studies was a foregone conclusion.

After Song Ning figured it out, he looked at Lance who was walking in front of him with extremely complicated eyes.

He did not forget that Lance had lost his memory, and this fact was like a taut string that was always stuck in his heart.

What if Lance regains his memory?

Would Lance still remember what he had said now? Would he think that he had taken advantage of him? Would he think that he had seduced him?

"Xiao Song, Xiao Song, Song Ning!"

Someone called Song Ning. He turned around and saw a young sister older than him chasing after him. She glanced at Song Ning, then at Lance beside him and smiled awkwardly.

"Xiao Song, I want to talk to you about something."

Song Ning subconsciously glanced at Lance.

Lance understood, "I'll meet you at the intersection ahead."

He went forward carrying two large bags.

Song Ning inexplicably remembered something from the past.

This happened once before. He rarely had time to ask Ergouzi to go shopping together. In fact, he felt that Ergouzi was always staying at home and it was not convenient to ask him to come back for some fresh air.

As a result, Ergouzi was always angry with him. Not only was he sarcastic when he was buying things, but later when he met his neighbor next door, he stopped him and said hello and talked to him. Ergouzi immediately turned his face away, left him and the extra things he had bought and went straight home.

There were watermelons and other food items that Ergouzi had specifically requested when he was angry, and Song Ning couldn't carry them all by himself.

Later, the neighbors helped to carry it back.

Song Ning looked at the only bottle of milk in his hand - this was bought by Lan specifically for him to drink.

"Xiao Song? Xiao Song, are you listening?"

The young sister called him back to his senses. Song Ning was in a daze for a second and felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I haven't been feeling well lately and I'm always distracted."

"Oh, it's nothing. Did you hear what I just said?"

The young woman repeated, "The one you reported to the police before was called Lance, right? We compared the records and found that he is from our city, but he is an orphan without a father or a mother. We don't have his home address in the database, and his file is not updated much. We suspect he is a homeless person."
