I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 75 We'll do whatever you say; just arrange things for us.

Yin Mengran's phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a message from Tang Zhi:

"How much longer until you arrive?"

"Tang Zhi asked us how long it would take to get there."

Yin Mengran looked up at Zhou Heng and asked, because she didn't know where Tang Zhi's house was either.

Zhou Heng glanced at her and said:

"No need to reply to her, we're already downstairs."

After saying that, he pointed to the residential building in front of him and then went inside first.

Seeing this, Yin Mengran quickly followed, but still replied to Tang Zhi with a sentence:

"【We've arrived!】"

The two took the elevator to the designated floor. As soon as they got off the elevator, Yin Mengran saw an open door with Tang Zhi standing there, waiting for them.

Upon seeing Tang Zhi, Yin Mengran immediately smiled and extended her hand to greet her.

Tang Zhi smiled back and waved, the two behaving like longtime friends.

Then, Tang Zhi called out into the house, "Mom! Zhou Heng and the others are here!"

"Coming!"

A woman's voice responded from inside, followed by the sound of slippers hurrying to the door.

The next second, a woman appeared behind Tang Zhi. She was a little shorter than Tang Zhi, but her overall temperament was very different from Tang Zhi's. Her gentle and refined temperament was impossible to hide.

Yin Mengran immediately recognized that Tang Zhi's dark, deep eyes were inherited from her mother; the two had almost identical eyes.

She also subconsciously compared herself to Zhou Heng's mother in her mind.

Although it was very impolite, at least in her own mind, she still thought Zhou Heng's mother was prettier...

Zhou Heng bowed slightly in greeting and said, "Auntie, I've come to freeload a meal!"

Tang Zhi's mother, Zhou Yalan, immediately beamed with joy upon seeing the two people at the door:

"Oh! Alright, alright, this must be Xiao Mengran, right?"

Yin Mengran quickly bowed and replied softly, "Hello, Auntie, my name is Yin Mengran..."

"Yes, yes, good child, come in, come in quickly."

Zhou Yalan had prepared slippers for them and gestured for the two to come inside.

Yin Mengran followed Zhou Heng inside.

"You guys go play for a while, I'll go cook, and we'll have lunch together!"

Zhou Yalan tied on her apron and went to the kitchen to prepare a meal.

Yin Mengran glanced at the kitchen counter, which was piled high with ingredients, and she was quite surprised.

This was more like a holiday celebration for her family back then; it didn't feel like a regular family meal at all.

So she quickly put down what she was holding and followed him into the kitchen, saying:

"Auntie, let me help you. I can lend a hand and won't cause any trouble."

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, intending to help.

Zhou Yalan paused for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on her lips. Wen Yu's smile was warm, and her eyes were full of tenderness.

"No wonder Tang Zhi said I would definitely like you after you arrived. You are such a sensible child. Auntie doesn't need to help you. Go and have fun."

"Ah... Tang Zhi actually said that..."

Yin Mengran was slightly taken aback, scratched her head awkwardly, and for a moment didn't know how to respond.

Zhou Yalan said while chopping vegetables:

"I've heard about your situation from Tang Zhi. Don't be too polite. We're all family. Make yourself at home here."

Then she shouted towards the outside of the kitchen:

"Tang Zhi! Come over here and take Xiao Mengran over to play with you."

Hearing the sound, Tang Zhi came to the kitchen and looked at Yin Mengran in front of her, saying:

"You're here! I thought you went to the restroom. Let's go."

Tang Zhi reached out, grabbed Yin Mengran's wrist, and led her away from the kitchen.

Yin Mengran recalled what she had just said, and glanced at Tang Zhi beside her.

She still cared quite a bit about what kind of person she was in Tang Zhi's heart.

Since Tang Zhi would say those kinds of things to her mother, it means that I am still pretty good in Tang Zhi's heart, right?

Yin Mengran was taken to Tang Zhi's room, where Zhou Heng was sitting in a chair, looking at a comic book on the table.

As soon as she entered, Yin Mengran was dazzled by the various decorations in the room.

If Zhou Heng's room could be described as simple, then Tang Zhi's room could be described as luxurious.

The posters on the walls, the display cases specifically for figurines, and the various plush toys and cushions on the bed all contribute to making this room a very unique bedroom.

To Yin Mengran, the computer monitor looked just like a television; she had never seen one so big before.

Yin Mengran knew that Tang Zhi loved playing games; even her keychain had little game charms attached to it.

But it seems she underestimated Tang Zhi's passion for games. She had always thought that most people played games, and this was the first time she had ever seen a girl who loved games so much.

She wouldn't be surprised if this room belonged to a boy; she would think it was perfectly normal.

"Oh--"

Yin Mengran couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Tang Zhi sat on the bed and said softly:

"Please make yourself at home. The room is a bit messy, but don't mind it."

Yin Mengran chose to sit next to Tang Zhi. Although the room had many things, it was not messy.

At this moment, Zhou Heng also closed his comic book, turned to look at Yin Mengran, and said:

"Now that we're all here, I think we should start looking into the sports meet."

Zhou Heng glanced at Tang Zhi, and Tang Zhi nodded in agreement.

The monthly exams are over, and there's only a little over a week left until the sports meet at the end of the month.

In the past few days, many people have signed up for the project with Zhou Heng, and he has filled out the forms for them all.

Now the decision needs to be made regarding the opening ceremony performance, and which events he and Tang Zhi should sign up for.

"Ah...that's true. After all, I said we'd discuss the sports meet after the monthly exam...it seems the other classes have already made their decisions, we're progressing a bit slower..."

Yin Mengran almost forgot about this important matter.

She's been quite busy lately, so she forgot to think about it.

Now that I think about it, there's still more than a week until the sports meet, and time does seem a bit tight, especially since nothing has been decided yet.

"So... what are your thoughts?"

Yin Mengran looked at Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi. She felt that neither of them were easy to deal with, and she had to do a good job of balancing things out, trying to treat both of them equally.

I initially thought they would argue again, but this time they both shook their heads in unison and said:

"We don't have any particular ideas, we'll do whatever you say, just arrange it for us."
