Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Little Cutie
By late June, Shen Zhaozhao and Sheng Chuyi had finally completed their six years of elementary school.
This year, both of them had grown significantly, especially Sheng Chuyi.
They both had started to look more mature, gradually losing their childishness and starting to look like a young lady and a spirited young man.
“Zhaozhao, come and see, this is the graduation gift that Aunt Suxin has for you two.” The day after the exams were over, Qin Suxin called them downstairs, saying she had gifts for them.
As soon as Shen Zhaozhao and Sheng Chuyi went downstairs, they saw two bikes of the same model parked at the entrance of the building.
One was white, the other was pink.
“Wow, so pretty, thank you, Aunt Suxin.” Shen Zhaozhao really liked it and couldn’t wait to run around the new bike.
“Glad you like it, from tomorrow on, I’ll have Yiyi teach you how to ride a bike, and by the time school starts, you two can ride to school together.” Qin Suxin imagined that scene, feeling as if she had returned to her school days.
It was filled with the vigor of youth.
Being young is so wonderful!
Thus, learning how to ride became Shen Zhaozhao’s new task for the summer vacation.
“You must hold on tight and don’t let go,” Shen Zhaozhao repeated to Sheng Chuyi before starting to wobble forward on the bike.
At first, Shen Zhaozhao was a bit scared but gradually gained confidence as she rode farther and farther. After a few laps, Sheng Chuyi tried to let go quietly.
By the time Shen Zhaozhao realized it, she had ridden from one end of the complex to the other.
Just as she was feeling proud, suddenly a stray cat darted out.
Shen Zhaozhao was startled, and the front of the bike instantly went out of control.
“Sheng Chuyi!” she shouted loudly while trying her best to control the handlebars.
Unfortunately, Sheng Chuyi was too far away.
The bike wobbled and plunged into the greenery beside the path.
By the time Sheng Chuyi ran over from the other side, all that remained was a spinning wheel and Shen Zhaozhao, who had a weed on her head and was crawling out from the bushes.
“Are you okay?” Sheng Chuyi asked anxiously, helping her up.
Shen Zhaozhao: “I am not okay!”
“I’m sorry.” A flicker of guilt crossed Sheng Chuyi’s face, and he was about to ask where she fell when,
Shen Zhaozhao said with a pained expression, “My Little Cutie is broken!” Little Cutie was the name of her new bike.
Before Sheng Chuyi could speak, she added, “Forget it, it’s my fault for not taking good care of it.”
Seeing she was still worried about the bike, it was clear that she wasn’t hurt too badly.
Sheng Chuyi helped her to sit down and asked, “How are you feeling?”
Shen Zhaozhao rolled up her pant leg to find a large scrape on her knee.
Sheng Chuyi frowned and then crouched down in front of her, saying, “Get on! I’ll take you back.”
Shen Zhaozhao glanced at her new bike lying on the ground and asked, “What about Little Cutie?”
Sheng Chuyi: “Leave it.”
“No way!” Shen Zhaozhao immediately shook her head.
This was a new bike, what if someone stole it?
“What’s more important, you or the bike?” Sheng Chuyi frowned at her.
Shen Zhaozhao: “Of course, the bike is more important, I can’t lose myself. How about you take Little Cutie back first?”
Sheng Chuyi really wanted to knock on her head to see what was inside. This girl had always had unusual thoughts in her head ever since she was little.
Sheng Chuyi looked at her, forcefully helped her up from the ground,
Shen Zhaozhao struggled, saying, “No way, where the bike is, there I am; you won’t separate us.”
Sheng Chuyi was at a loss with her, so he had no choice but to put her down again, walked to the bike, picked it up, and brought it over to Shen Zhaozhao, telling her, “Sit at the back!”
Shen Zhaozhao’s eyes brightened, she stood up using the bike seat as support, and hopped to the back seat to sit down properly.
Sheng Chuyi, with both the girl and the bike, pushed them both back home.
