After Jiang Cheng let go of Shen Xing, she pushed the bicycle outside the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the alley entrance, Jiang Cheng sat on the bike and asked once more: \"Xing, are you sure you can jump on by yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m sure I can! But sis, are you sure you can carry us both?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng was full of confidence, and Shen Yue trustfully sat on the large horizontal bar at the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng steadied the bike, pedaled, and called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Xing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From behind, Shen Xing started running, gripping the bike seat, and leaping up with force, he sat securely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh—oh—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng swerved in an S-curve, which made Shen Xing grip her waist in fright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax, relax! It’s okay now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng gradually stabilized and, with the envious gazes of a group of children, delivered Shen Xing and Shen Yue to their school gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow! They actually rode a bicycle to school!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have one at home too, but my dad won’t let me touch it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the children’s world, Shen Xing and Shen Yue arriving on a bicycle was no less impressive than arriving in a Rolls-Royce in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After watching the little ones enter the school, Jiang Cheng went to the recycling station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the recycling station, Jiang Cheng first expressed her gratitude to the manager, then went to see Sister Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the office, Jiang Cheng sat across from Sister Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Wang, do you know any teachers who can draw?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who wants to learn to draw?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Wang’s response indicated that she knew someone, so Jiang Cheng didn’t hide Shen Yue’s situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Sister Wang leaned in and whispered, \"I really do know someone, but I need to ask first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, asking is definitely better than me searching randomly like a headless fly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, I’ll let you know once I’ve asked. By the way, have you completed the paperwork?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Yun will be back in a few days. I’ve taken on the task of directing a play at night school, it’s about to be performed, and I can’t keep taking leaves, so I decided to complete the procedures.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Wang felt somewhat reluctant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Cheng comforted her immediately: \"No problem, you know where I live, feel free to visit anytime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Wang agreed gladly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting for a while longer, Jiang Cheng went to night school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a busy day at night school, Jiang Cheng returned to the courtyard to prepare dinner, planning to head back to night school for attendance after eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Jiang Cheng spotted three familiar figures, one big and two small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s okay, don’t cry!
