I Truly Have Average Talents

Chapter 37: Bringing Sister Home

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Liu Chuan was panicking.

Others might not believe it, but he was bringing the girl in a dress to his house.

After all, Liu Chuan was only a third-year high school student. His parents were not by his side, so how would he go to a restaurant?

He took care of most of his meals in the school canteens. Meanwhile, on Saturdays and Sundays, he would prepare some food at home.

Over time, his culinary skills evolved from a barely edible level to a decent level.

At that time, Liu Chuan couldn’t think of a good place to eat. He blurted out, “Why don’t we go to my house? I’m feeling… Uh… I’ll cook for you.”

The girl in the dress was slightly stunned when she heard this. Her face turned red, but she still nodded and agreed.

…

However, Liu Chuan had run all the way here. He was a little far from home now.

He couldn’t ask the girl in the dress to run back with him, so he hailed a taxi by the roadside.

After opening the passenger door, Liu Chuan was about to sit in the front seat when he felt someone pulling on the corner of his shirt.

The girl in the dress pouted and hinted to him to sit in the back row with her. The corners of her mouth curved down slightly, and her aggrieved expression was truly pitiful.

If Wu Zhixin was here and saw this scene, she would definitely shout, “Stop, you bitch, let go of Liu Chuan!”

At this moment, Liu Chuan’s heart was racing. He could only feel ‘aggrieved’ before happily sitting in the back row with the girl in the dress.

Right now, his entire body was stiff. He closed his legs, while his upper body was upright. He was sitting up straight. He had studied for more than ten years, but he had never sat so upright before.

As for the girl in the dress, she sat next to Liu Chuan and tugged at his left sleeve with both hands.

The young girl seemed to be a little tired. She actually closed her eyes and rested her head gently on Liu Chuan’s shoulder. It was as if she had fallen asleep.

Liu Chuan immediately felt his entire body stiffen up. Everything was tense!

He could even smell the faint fragrance coming from the young girl’s body. It was like the fragrance of peaches and was very pleasant.

Liu Chuan, who was a little restless, stole a glance at the girl in the dress who was leaning against him.

The taxi shook a little, and the girl’s long eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a butterfly as the taxi moved.

Her delicate nose and slightly opened cherry lips made her look like a cute and naughty girl-next-door.

The girl in the dress even opened her red lips slightly, trying to attract his attention.

Liu Chuan simply felt his heart start to beat wildly. He quickly looked away, not daring to look at her again.

Along the way, Liu Chuan sat upright, not daring to cross the line at all.

What he did not see was the corner of the girl’s lips curling up slightly, as if she had succeeded in some scheme.

The journey did not take long. About twenty minutes later, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood.

Liu Chuan first gently woke up the girl in the dress who was sleeping. When the girl woke up, her dazed look was adorable.

Then, he paid the fare and thanked the driver politely.

The taxi driver rolled down the window and watched the two leave. He could not help but sigh at how good it was to be young.

Just as he was about to smoke a cigarette, he was afraid that it would affect the next passenger, so he gave up.

…

Liu Chuan was afraid that he would meet someone familiar, so he brought the girl in the dress with his head lowered as he walked quickly home. However, he still encountered Uncle Wang from the breakfast shop…

Lately, Liu Chuan’s temperament had changed a little. He had grown a lot taller and was more muscular than before.

He no longer looked like the skinny nerd from before. Furthermore, Liu Chuan had his head lowered. Thus, Uncle Wang was not sure if it was him.

Uncle Wang quickly pulled his wife beside him and asked, “Cuihua, look at that young man in front. Is he Liu Chuan? My eyesight isn’t good, so I can’t see clearly.”

Aunt Wang, who was called Cuihua by Uncle Wang, also looked up and took a closer look. She said to Uncle Wang, “Isn’t that Chuan Zi? Aiyo, he even found a little girlfriend.”

Then, Aunt Wang waved at Liu Chuan and shouted, “Chuan Zi, Chuan Zi.”

“Can’t you see that the couple have their heads lowered and are embarrassed? Why are you so blind?” Uncle Wang hurriedly pulled his wife and whispered.

Liu Chuan lowered his head and smiled bitterly. He was still discovered. Thus, he could only turn to Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang. “Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, have you eaten?”

Aunt Wang came back to her senses and said a little embarrassedly, “I was just about to go home to eat with Uncle Wang. Little Chuan hasn’t eaten yet, right? Come to our house to eat.”

“That’s right. Come to our house for a meal. Uncle has just bought some good dishes,” Uncle Wang added. As he spoke, he raised the dishes he had just bought.

Liu Chuan quickly waved his hand and rejected them. “There’s no need, no need, no need. We’ll go home and eat… We’ll go back first. Goodbye, Uncle and Aunt Wang.”

With that, he grabbed the girl’s hand and headed home.

The girl in the dress did not say anything. She looked at the two of them holding hands and smiled.

“Little Chuan has already grown up and has a girlfriend. Time really flies.” Aunt Wang sighed as she watched the two leave.

When Uncle Wang heard Aunt Wang’s words, he could not help but complain. “Time is running out? It’s only the second year since we moved to this district. Why are you sighing so much? Hurry up and go back to cook. Every day, all you can do is chat nonsense.”

“…”

…

After entering his house, Liu Chuan finally relaxed. It was too awkward to bring a girl home and be discovered by someone he knew.

After all, he was still single. If word got out, it would affect his chances of finding a girlfriend.

Liu Chuan turned around and saw that the girl in the dress was looking around curiously. Liu Chuan didn’t mind.

“I still don’t know your name. How old are you?” Liu Chuan asked as she cleaned up the living room.

The girl smiled sweetly. “My name is Shi Yanya. I’m 18 this year.”

“Oh, my name is Liu Chuan. I mentioned Wu Chuanjiang earlier, but that was a fake name. I just randomly used a name. I’m a third-year student from Ping An High School.”

“By the way, shouldn’t you be in school?”

Liu Chuan was also a little puzzled.

“I quit school,” said Shi Yanyan calmly. She did not explain much.

When Liu Chuan heard this, he did not know what to say. He only thought that Shi Yanya’s results might not be good. However, he could not say much about other people’s matters.

“In that case, sit on the sofa for a while. I’ll go to the kitchen and see what’s there to eat.” After saying that, Liu Chuan walked towards the kitchen.

He actually did not have any evil thoughts. As an 18-year-old virgin, he did not have any dirty thoughts. He was really here to cook for her.

Then, Liu Chuan walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. This was bad. He had been away from home for more than a month and he hadn’t bought any ingredients at all. This was a little awkward.

Some of the leftovers in the refrigerator that hadn’t been eaten began to turn moldy… He had to quickly clean up the moldy mess…

Fortunately, he found some food in the end. They were frozen dumplings that he had bought in the supermarket and hadn’t had time to eat yet. They were stuffed with mushrooms and pork.

Then, Liu Chuan turned on the induction cooker. He fried half of the dumplings and boiled the rest of the dumplings. In less than ten minutes, he came out with two bowls of boiled dumplings and a plate of fried dumplings.

“Shi Yanya, it’s time to eat.” Liu Chuan put down the dumplings and greeted Shi Yanya, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze. Then, he turned around and went into the kitchen to mix a bowl of sauce for the fried dumplings.

As soon as the sauce was prepared, Shi Yanya asked Liu Chuan, “Are there any more dumplings? I’m not full yet.”

Liu Chuan looked at the two empty bowls and the shiny plate on the table.

He seriously suspected that this young girl was related to Wu Zhixin..
