The Tang Family’s Seven Os - Chapter 138
The next morning, Xia Cheng Lang went to Tang Liu Yuan’s home early, where Tang Qi Yuan happened to be at home. He apologised to Tang Qi Yuan in front of Tang Liu Yuan for the trouble he had caused him that day.
Tang Qi Yuan naturally did not take it personally and happily said that it was alright, even apologising for the fact that Tang Qi Yuan had misunderstood him and hit him earlier.
Tang Liu Yuan stood by and was a little embarrassed. Xia Cheng Lang smiled and came up to Tang Liu Yuan, looked him in the eye and said ‘it’s alright’, and Tang Liu Yuan took an uncomfortable step back, but was obviously relieved.
After the matter was officially settled, Xia Cheng Lang and Tang Liu Yuan first posted their contact details downstairs so that the cat owner could easily contact them. Then, they took the kitten to the pet hospital and asked the doctor to give it a vaccination and listened to the doctor sharing lot of knowledge about raising cats. After that, they went to choose a lot of cat treats and daily necessities on the way.
Xia Cheng Lang stood in the pet shop, holding the cat in his arms, and looked sideways at Tang Liu Yuan, who was picking out a pet bag. He was slightly lost in thought and he gave birth to an illusion that the two of them already had children. Unconsciously, an image of him and Tang Liu Yuan as two new dads who were choosing clothes for the child together was born in his brain. He clicked his tongue, he unexpectedly felt some expectation, feeling a little sweet in his heart.
The kitten purred softly in his arms, finally succeeding in pulling him back from his wandering thoughts, and he glanced down at the kitten.
When Tang Liu Yuan heard the cat’s cry, he also looked over. He stretched out his hand to pet the cat soothingly. After last night, the cat had already become familiar with him. Instead of hiding, it rubbed its head on his palm coquettishly.
The soft, fluffy fur brushed against his hand, and Tang Liu Yuan couldn’t help but reveal a smile. Xia Cheng Lang turned his head slightly to look at him, his eyes lighting up.
Xia Cheng Lang took the opportunity to stretch out his hand and pet the kitten soothingly with Tang Liu Yuan. He tilted his head to look at Tang Liu Yuan, his hand approached Tang Liu Yuan’s hand, pretending to touch it inadvertently.
Tang Liu Yuan’s hand moved slightly, his eyelashes fluttered, and he moved his hand to the side calmly.
Xia Cheng Lang sniggered in his heart, but his hand was still dishonest, again pretending to touch the back of Tang Liu Yuan’s hand inadvertently.
Tang Liu Yuan retracted his hand and turned his head to continue looking pet bags, acting calmly, but Xia Cheng Lang noticed the tips of his ears redden imperceptibly.
Xia Cheng Lang let out a low chuckle and scratched the kitten’s chin in a good mood, Tang Liu Yuan was even cuter than this little guy when teased.
He took a small dried fish out of his snack bag and fed it to the kitten, which the kitten ate deliciously.
Xia Cheng Lang smiled, looked up and said to Tang Liu Yuan: “You should give the little one a name.”
Tang Liu Yuan smiled and looked back, her eyes downcast as she thought about it, “You choose, after all, you picked it up.”
Xia Cheng Lang did not refuse, when it came to naming, his first thought was of Tang Liu Yuan’s pheromones, and he said tentatively: “Cha Cha1茶 (chá): tea?”
Tang Liu Yuan’s cheeks flushed, “Change it.”
Xia Cheng Lang felt a little pity, and after thinking about it, he had to settle for the second best, “Then let’s call it Xiao Nai Cha 2小奶茶 (xiǎo nǎi chá): little milk tea.”
Anyway, the kitten was still a little milk cat right now, and since it was Xiao Nai Mao3小奶猫 (xiǎo nǎi māo): little milk cat Cha Cha, then it would be Xiao Nai Cha, and when Xiao Nai Cha grows up, it would naturally be Cha Cha.
“Xiao Nai Cha……” Tang Liu Yuan did not know Xia Cheng Lang’s little thoughts, he did not object again this time, nodded his head, and agreed.
The two of them bought a bunch of big and small bags, and finished buying all the things they needed for Xiao Nai Cha before heading home. It was not far from where Tang Liu Yuan lived, so they chose to walk instead of taking a car, taking it as a going for a stroll.
After walking a few steps, Xia Cheng Lang naturally put Xiao Nai Cha into Tang Liu Yuan’s arms, grabbing all the things he needed to carry in his own hands.
Tang Liu Yuan gave him a strange look, “Can you carry it?”
“……” Xia Cheng Lang almost forgot that he was a soft Omega who couldn’t even unscrew the cap of a bottle, he stalled and decided to save himself some face, “I was besieged by Alphas that day, that’s why I was I was extraordinarily weak, I’m usually very strong.”
Tang Liu Yuan was half convinced, but he was a bit reluctant to let go of Xiao Nai Cha in his arms, so he nodded and said: “If you get tired, just let me know.”
Xia Cheng Lang nodded gently, he naturally would not get tired carrying such a small amount of stuff.
As they walked around the corner side by side, they suddenly heard a loud noise and looked up at the same time, and as soon as they looked up, they saw Sheng Cen leading a group fight.
Sheng Cen had a cigarette in his mouth and his hands were in his pockets. At a glance, he did not look like a prince at all, but rather like a big brother of a gang.
Tang Liu Yuan naturally didn’t care about Sheng Cen’s business, so he just took one look at him and then withdrew his eyes. He took two steps and suddenly remembered that Xia Cheng Lang is Sheng Cen’s cousin, and couldn’t help but stop and glance at Xia Cheng Lang.
Xia Cheng Lang’s expression still looked very relaxed, and he had no intention of going over there. He couldn’t help but pursed his lips and asked: “Aren’t you going to go over?”
Sheng Cen was Xia Cheng Lang’s cousin, if Xia Cheng Lang wanted to go over to help, since he was travelling with Xia Cheng Lang, he naturally couldn’t just stand by and watch.
“I’m not going over, my cousin should be able to handle it.” Xia Cheng Lang shook his head, he was now an Omega, if he got too excited and accidentally exposed his identity during the fight later, it would be bad, and it was just a few small lackeys, his cousin could take care of them alone, he wasn’t worried at all that his cousin would be at a disadvantage.
Since Xia Cheng Lang said so, Tang Liu Yuan naturally didn’t care anymore, but when he scanned with his eyes, he saw a familiar figure behind the crowd.
Tang Qi Yuan was cowering in the corner behind Sheng Cen, peeking halfway out and was shouting at Sheng Cen in a clear voice: “It’s not right to fight!”
Tang Liu Yuan’s eyebrows knitted up and he was worried that Tang Qi Yuan might be hurt by mistake, so he lifted his foot and wanted to walk over and take Tang Qi Yuan away, but Xia Cheng Lang tugged on his arm and gently lifted his chin and said, “Don’t worry, my cousin will protect him and won’t let anything happen to him.”
Xia Cheng Lang’s tone was so sure, Tang Liu Yuan’s frown did not loosen, but he did not move again either, just standing still and watching the situation over there attentively, as soon as they moved to fight, he would immediately go over and take Tang Qi Yuan away.
He waited for a while until he saw Sheng Cen walking impatiently to the corner and carrying Tang Qi Yuan away like a hawk catching a chick, only then did he put his heart down and breathed a sigh of relief.
With Sheng Cen gone, the two remaining groups froze, and without their leader, they naturally could not fight, cursing at each other for a few moments before dispersing.
Xia Cheng Lang smiled as he watched Sheng Cen and Tang Qi Yuan walk away, he didn’t think there was really someone who could control his cousin, he couldn’t help but ask with some curiosity: “Why is your brother always following my cousin?”
If Tang Qi Yuan wasn’t a little nerd who was against early love, he would have started to suspect that Tang Qi Yuan was in love with his cousin.
Tang Liu Yuan hugged Xiao Nai Cha and walked forward, explaining unconcernedly: “The teacher assigned him the task of monitoring Sheng Cen’s progress and helping him study……my brother’s character is more serious and responsible.”
Xia Cheng Lang was silent at this reason……little classmate Tang Qi Yuan is really a good student who is united, friendly and helps others.
“I really envy my cousin, I also want someone to help me study.” Xia Cheng Lang said while glancing at Tang Liu Yuan, it’s a pity that he and Tang Liu Yuan are not in the same class, otherwise maybe the teacher will also arrange for Tang Liu Yuan to help him, a ‘bad student’, to study, the thought of it makes people look forward to it.
“You want to study?” As far as he knew, Xia Cheng Lang and Sheng Cen were more averse to studying one more than the other, and could be said to be good brothers who were in cahoots. When Sheng Cen found out that Xiao Qi had been sent to supervise his studies, his face was even darker than the bottom of a pot, and he didn’t give Xiao Qi any face, how could Xia Cheng Lang be envious?
“En!” Xia Cheng Lang nodded without hesitation and looked at Tang Liu Yuan with an expectant gaze, “I need help too.”
“If you really want to learn……” Tang Liu Yuan spoke slowly as he gazed expectantly, “you can hire a tutor.”
He felt that even if the Xia family was not as good as it used to be, they could still afford to hire a tutor for Xia Cheng Lang.
“……” Xia Cheng Lang choked for a moment, feeling that Tang Liu Yuan was simply a topic terminator.
He was silent for a moment in a complicated mood before making persisting efforts and saying with intent: “The tutors way of teaching is too complicated and they all seem like they are completing tasks, not really trying to help me at all. My foundation is so poor that I can’t understand anything the tutors are saying.”
He sighed and said with great envy: “If only someone could be as serious and responsible as your brother is to my cousin and would be willing to do my homework with me, then I could ask along the way if I don’t know anything and it would also improve my motivation to study.”
If Chen She had been here, he would have been speechless with amazement, the mere fact that the word ‘study’ could come out of Xia Cheng Lang’s mouth was incredible enough.
Tang Liu Yuan finally understood what Xia Cheng Lang meant. He thought about the punch he had thrown when he and Xia Cheng Lang first met and Xiao Nai Cha that he was holding in his arms. Since Xia Cheng Lang was so keen on learning, he thought he would be willing to help out a little.
“I can help you, from now on, after school, you can come to my house to do your homework first, and then go home afterwards. That way, you can ask me if you don’t know anything.”
“That’s great.” Xia Cheng Lang showed a smile and couldn’t wait to respond, “Then I’ll go to your house to do my homework now.”
“Ah? Wouldn’t that be too soon.” Tang Liu Yuan froze for a moment, he thought Xia Cheng Lang would leave later after he had helped him take the things upstairs.
“Not too fast, I’m particularly motivated to study now, I can’t wait to study hard and improve every day!”
Xia Cheng Lang felt that he has never loved learning so much, learning makes people improve, learning makes people fall in love, he is really a good flower in the future of interstellar!
Tang Liu Yuan looked at such an active and hardworking good teenager and felt as if he couldn’t discourage him, but……
Tang Liu Yuan coughed lowly: “But I finished my homework last night.”
Xia Cheng Lang: “…… ” I didn’t expect you to be such a study tyrant, it’s only the first day of vacation, can you have a little reverence for the holidays!
Tang Liu Yuan was silent for a few seconds before speaking, “And you didn’t bring any books with you, how can you do your homework?”
Xia Cheng Lang looked dismayed: “……”
Today’s homework plan was a completely shattered dream.
