Chapter 342: What Are You Doing?

And not to mention Shi Jingming, even Shen Xing himself couldn't have imagined that his Second Uncle would suddenly appear at the gate of the Second Middle School.

"Jingming, when we get to my house in a bit, don't mention what just happened to my mom. Just act like it never happened."

If his mother knew that people from the Fu family had actually chased him to Longcheng, she would definitely be worried and uneasy, so he didn't want his mother to know about this.

Shi Jingming nodded understandingly: "I know, but your Second Uncle shouldn't give up easily, right? He already knows your school now. It's hard to say if he'll come again tomorrow. Do you have any ideas?"

"I'll tell my sister!" Shen Xing blurted out, as if he had already made up his mind.

He didn't have the ability to handle this matter himself, and he couldn't let his mother know, so he could only go to his sister to solve it.

Shi Jingming's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Oh right, you have a super powerful sister, she must have a way."

Soon the two rode to the "Wanjia Denghuo" residential area. The security guard saw Shen Xing coming back from school and took the initiative to open the gate for him to enter.

Shi Jingming followed behind and couldn't help but secretly click his tongue. This residential area looked very high-end, and even the security booth was luxuriously unbelievable.

"Xing, are these all villas inside?"

Shi Jingming looked at the villas glowing in the night, feeling nervous all of a sudden.

Until they entered the gate of Shen Xing's villa, what came into view was a wide and beautiful front garden, and the villa standing in the middle was luxurious and imposing. Shi Jingming's eyes widened. The luxury mansion that only appeared on TV was right in front of him.

"Don't stare blankly, just park the bike on the side. My mom must have made dinner!" Shen Xing greeted casually.

Shi Jingming stepped forward and grabbed him, saying nervously: "Xing, let's go to my house next time. You didn't say you lived in a villa. I was nervous before I even went in."

"Nervous?"

Shi Jingming nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"What are you nervous about?" Shen Xing didn't understand.

"I don't know."

Shi Jingming rarely showed a cowardly side, which made Shen Xing laugh: "There are only me and my mom at home. My mom especially welcomes you, what do you have to be nervous about?"

Before Shi Jingming could talk nonsense again, Shen Xing reached out and pushed him forward: "Hurry up, we still have to review for you after eating!"

Shen Jingjing brought the last dish, "Fish Maw Chicken Soup," to the table, just in time to hear the sound of the door opening and her son's voice at the entrance.

She smiled, wiped her hands on her apron, and greeted them.

"Mom, Shi Jingming, from Class 3!"

"Hello, Auntie!"

Shi Jingming bowed ninety degrees straight. Seeing this, Shen Jingjing hurriedly greeted him with a warm smile: "Hello, hello, welcome, welcome."

"Hungry, right? Come in quickly!"

Shen Xing bent down and picked up the little Yoda wagging its tail at his feet, then headed straight for the dining room.

"Mom, you made so much?" Shen Xing couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the rich dinner table: "And fish maw chicken soup, you must have stewed it for a long time, right?"

Shen Jingjing walked over with a smile and nodded: "Of course, I started stewing it in the afternoon."

She happened to have a shift change and was resting today. Plus, after drinking so much alcohol last night, she stayed at home all day today and didn't go anywhere.

"Take your friend to wash his hands quickly, then hurry up and eat, so you can go upstairs to study after eating." Shen Jingjing said, taking another casserole out of the kitchen: "Mom is going to send some fish maw chicken soup to your Auntie Deng, so I won't disturb you guys."

Although Shi Jingming was a bit at a loss, he still asked politely: "Auntie, aren't you eating dinner with us?"

That big table of dishes was prepared just for him and Shen Xing?

"You guys eat, Auntie isn't used to eating too much at night. I'll go drink some chicken soup with my friend."

After speaking, Shen Jingjing went out.

Shen Xing patted Shi Jingming on the shoulder: "My mom must be afraid you'll feel uncomfortable, so she deliberately went to Auntie Deng's house."

"Your mom is really good!" Shi Jingming said sincerely.

Shen Xing raised his eyebrows proudly, then took Shi Jingming to the bathroom to wash his hands.

The two sat down in front of the dining table. Shi Jingming took a look and found that they actually had six dishes for two people, including chicken soup, fish, eggs, and vegetables, and even the after-meal fruit was washed and placed on the side.

Although he had long known that Shen Xing's family conditions were very good—after all, his sister drove a "Cullinan" and he himself rode a bicycle worth over twenty thousand—these only brought him superficial shocks, and he didn't have a very personal experience of the gap between them.

When he was sitting at the dining table in Shen Xing's house at this moment, looking at the rich dinner in front of him, Shi Jingming truly felt how big the gap in life was between his family and Shen Xing's.

These seemingly ordinary details in life, if there are huge differences, are actually the most shocking.

"Except for holidays, my family has never had a meal with so many dishes," Shi Jingming said softly after coming back to his senses.

Shen Xing looked at him, placed the served rice in front of him, and explained: "Because I knew you were coming today, my mom made two extra dishes. Usually, there are four dishes at night."

Shi Jingming nodded and picked up his bowl to eat.

Shen Xing didn't exaggerate. His mother's cooking was really good, especially the "fish maw chicken soup." It was Shi Jingming's first time drinking it. He had never drunk such a rich soup, with a mellow fragrance and a sweet aftertaste, making him unable to help but drink several big bowls.

The next day, after her son finished breakfast and went to school, Shen Jingjing tidied up the kitchen simply, then went upstairs to change clothes and prepare to go to work.

She took out the clothes she usually wore to work from the closet and changed into them as usual, and her hair was simply tied behind her head.

No makeup, no jewelry, and even no high heels.

But when she habitually came to the full-length mirror to look at herself before going out, she looked at herself in the mirror and was stunned.

The self in the mirror was the self she was most familiar with, and it was also the state and appearance she had most often for half her life.

But at this moment, the image of her standing in front of this mirror the day before yesterday appeared in her mind.

Black silk dress, hundred-yuan red diamond jewelry, luxury brand bag, and gorgeous high heels.

Two completely different images and temperaments made Shen Jingjing feel a very strong sense of fragmentation about herself at this moment!

And that night at Sister Moru's manor, she drank and chatted happily with a group of noble ladies in Longcheng. That was a night that made her feel like she was in a dream, and she was also happy from the bottom of her heart.

And now?

She changed her clothes and was actually preparing to go to the housekeeping company to work...

The sense of fragmentation in her heart became stronger. Shen Jingjing was dazed for a moment, slowly stepped back two steps, and then sat on the bed behind her.

She lowered her head and blinked, a voice in her heart asking herself: What are you doing?

Cast a monthly vote for Mom, the career mom is about to awaken!
