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

"You have good grades, why did you drop out of school?"

"Because something happened at home."

"That's it. It's okay. Your grades are pretty good now. I'll arrange for your homeroom teacher to come and register the day before school starts."

"Okay, thank you, Principal!"

The sun was shining, and Song Ning's mood was equally bright.

Lance, who accompanied him out of the campus, was in a brighter mood. "I knew that our Ningning would definitely pass the exam. Look, the principal has praised you."

"But the stationery at home doesn't seem to be complete. Last time I went to the stationery store here and looked at some of the things there, some were old styles. I'll go online and pick some for you later. And you have to buy some clothes besides the school uniform, and you have to buy some shoes too. Oh, and buy a watch, too. It seems that the school doesn't allow the use of mobile phones very much, so buy another watch."

Before Song Ning had the chance to share his happy mood with him, he heard Lance making a shopping list.

He even had an illusion that a long shopping receipt appeared before his eyes, with a hefty sum at the end.

"Why do I need to buy so many things? There are still many things at home that can be used. I can just use those."

Song Huai'en left without hesitation, without taking any of the household items with him.

Song Ning laughed at himself, this could be considered as recycling of waste.

"That won't work."

But Lance refused righteously.

"Ningning, where did you put those things? Let's find them when we get home and donate them. Those things are not clean so we shouldn't touch them."

"Where is it unclean?"

Song Ning was a little amused.

But seeing Lance's 'I'm serious' expression, he finally agreed.

It’s fine if you donate it instead of throwing it away, as long as it’s not wasted.

He hadn't realized that he was gradually giving in to Lance more, and even considered and listened to Lance's advice deep in his heart, because he no longer regarded Lance as someone who could leave at any time as he did at the beginning.

The school season starts in September, but the breakfast shop's business is getting better day by day.

Song Ning originally planned to help out in the morning and then study when he was less busy, but Lance refused.

"Although you have passed the entrance exam, Ningning, you still have forgotten a lot of knowledge after such a long time. In this case, why don't you focus on studying first? And Ningning, have you forgotten? You still need to take good care of your body. Didn't the doctor say that although you can go back to school, you have to take care of your body first? Studying is also a very energy-consuming thing."

Song Ning felt that the doctor and Lance were exaggerating. "I'm just helping out. I won't do any heavy work, so how can I get tired?"

"But Ningning won't be able to rest well, right?"

Lance leaned over and gently stroked his lower eyelid with his fingers. "Ningning, hasn't he been helping out during the day and studying until the evening recently? You have dark circles under your eyes, and you still say you're not tired."

Song Ning really wanted to refute that this amount of fatigue was actually nothing. He was even more tired before when he had no one to help him, but he still managed to get through it.

"Don't think about the past. I must have not been good enough to Ningning in the past, which is why Ningning has so many problems. It's my fault."

Lance pinched Song Ning's lips in a look of irritation.

"Mmmmm (Not you)."

Song Ning expressed his meaning with his eyes, but Lance pretended not to see it.

"Anyway, from now on, Ningning, your main task is to study, and I will take care of the household affairs."

Song Ning still wanted to struggle.

"Actually, I can help a little and it won't be too tiring..."

"Ning Ning."

Lance suddenly leaned over and rubbed his forehead. Under the dim light of the shop, his blue pupils still couldn't hide his deep affection like the deep ocean.

"Ningning, trust me, okay?"

His breathing suddenly became lighter, but Song Ning's heartbeat accelerated wildly.

He looked into those eyes in a daze for a long time before nodding slowly.

"it is good."

Let him take another gamble, this time he wants to try to trust Lance and rely on Lance.

September is here in a flash.

With Lance's meticulous care and attention, Song Ning gradually improved his academic progress to the point where he was preparing to enter senior year. At the same time, every night after he finished his studies and work, Lance would take him to the river for a night run.

Song Ning was a little bit unbelievable at first. Lance refused to let him do more work at home, and now he wanted him to go for a night run?

At first he thought Lance was just joking or acting on a whim, until Lance took him out four times a week and Song Ning was sure that Lance was serious and caring.

Night running is not easy, but it is not as difficult as Song Ning imagined.

"Pay attention to your breathing Ningning."

"okay, I get it."

Facing the wind, Song Ning adjusted his disordered breathing and began to follow the running breathing method that Lance had taught him before. The burning sensation in his chest was immediately relieved a lot.

"Ningning is awesome, let's keep running."

Lance was leading the way. His tall figure blocked the cold night wind and made it easier for Song Ning to run.

After the night run, the two slowly walked home from the river. When passing by a place on the river bank, Song Ning suddenly felt something.

"Do you see that place over there where the grass is much shorter? That's where I picked you up and brought you home."

Lance looked over subconsciously, and was slightly stunned the next second.

Song Ning pretended not to notice and spoke in a natural tone.

"At that time, I accidentally stepped on your hand and almost thought I was going to kill someone. I was actually very scared."

"Ning Ning?"

Lance was a little confused.

Why did Song Ning suddenly bring up these things in front of his 'amnesiac' self?

"Just sharing with you how I felt at that time."

Ningning felt a little cold in the wind, so she naturally hid behind Lance, and the biting cold wind was completely blocked.

"I was actually very confused at the time. Er Gouzi followed his biological parents and left without even looking back or saying hello. In fact, when I took out the household registration booklet, I had already planned to tear out his page and give it to him."

Lance knew this; he had discovered this in his previous life.

He turned his head and spoke in a low and gentle voice, "He is not worthy. Our Ningning is so good, but he is willing to abandon you."

"Actually it's not bad."

Song Ning stretched out his finger to hook the corner of Lance's clothes, "The house is so small, if he didn't leave, I might not necessarily pick you up and take you home. After all, there is no room for you to sleep."

"Ning Ning?"

Lance was really surprised now.

Ningning's heart trembled when he called her, but she still plucked up the courage to hook Lance's little finger.

"Lance, I believe in you. So no matter who you were or what you did before, as long as you don't abandon me like Er Gouzi, there will always be a place for you in this family."

He tried again, just one more time.

Lance was completely soft-hearted.

He wrapped the somewhat cold fingertips in his palm, his tone gentle but firm.

"Okay, then Ningning, please trust me for the rest of your life."

The little prince who is always so brave should get a response and should continue to shine.
