Chen Yi and his friends were walking slowly in the night, still discussing the online counterattack. Although the night was deep, their mood was still light and happy, with occasional laughter echoing on the quiet street. They talked about various interesting things tonight, including the mockery of Chen Hao by netizens, and their anticipation of the school's reaction tomorrow. Whenever they talked about something particularly interesting, they burst into laughter, as if throwing all their worries behind them.
Soon, they reached a crossroads, the point where they would each go their separate ways home. Here, they stopped, waved goodbye to each other. "See you at school tomorrow!" Wang Lei said loudly, with a hint of reluctance on his face.
"Keep in touch and see what reaction Chen Hao will have tomorrow," said Lin Hao as he turned and walked towards his home. Jay Chou also waved goodbye, with a smile on his face, saying, "Tonight was really exciting, see you tomorrow!"
Finally, Chen Yi walked home alone. He felt a bit tired, but his heart was filled with satisfaction and anticipation. His stomach was already growling with hunger, looking forward to returning home to eat the warm dinner his mother had prepared.
As he walked, his mind kept replaying the events of tonight. From planning the prank to watching Chen Hao's reaction, and then sharing joy with friends, every moment made him feel incredibly precious. This experience not only strengthened their friendship, but also taught them how to face life's challenges with wisdom and humor. When he reached the front door of his home and felt the warmth and aroma, he knew that no matter what tomorrow brings, he was ready to face it.
When Chen Yi gently pushed open the door, the warm family atmosphere and the aroma of food immediately greeted him. His mother was carrying several bowls of steaming, fragrant noodles from the kitchen, with a gentle and tired look on her face, typical of a homemaker. Seeing her son return home so late, her brow slightly furrowed, and her slightly reproachful tone revealed her worry: "Son, why are you coming home so late? You made your mother so worried."
At the dining table, Chen Yi's father is arranging the dishes and food, preparing dinner. He hears his wife's words and turns to ask with concern, "Son, why are you so late today? Is there something special happening at school?" His voice is filled with the unique care and seriousness of a father.
Chen Yi feels the concern from his parents and is somewhat at a loss. He tries to come up with a seemingly reasonable excuse, "Oh, today I was discussing homework with classmates, so I came back a bit late." His voice is hesitant and not very natural. After hearing this, his father's eyes flash with a hint of amusement, and he half-jokingly quips, "Homework? I think you went to the internet cafe, didn't you?" His words carry the wit and humor unique to a father.
Chen Yi was seen through by his father, feeling a bit embarrassed, he awkwardly touched his head, didn't explain further, turned around and quickly walked into his own room. His movements were a bit clumsy, but they revealed the innocence and shyness of an adolescent. The father and mother smiled at each other, their eyes showing love and understanding for their son. They knew that their son was going through adolescence, with his own little secrets and world, but at the same time, they were worried about his safety and growth.
Soon after, the mother gently called out, "Son, come wash your hands and have dinner. Mom made your favorite braised beef noodles." Her voice was filled with the warmth and care of a homemaker. Chen Yi quickly tidied up in his room, washed his hands, and then walked back to the dining room. The table was filled with home-cooked dishes, including fresh vegetables, savory braised pork, and his favorite braised beef noodles. The family sat together, creating a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
At the dinner table, Mom and Dad chatted casually about daily life, occasionally inquiring about Chen Yi's situation at school. Chen Yi listened to his parents discussing everyday matters, feeling a sense of relaxation and comfort. Although he didn't go into detail about his online adventure tonight, he still enjoyed this family time.
Mom gently asked, "How are things at school, Chen Yi? How are you getting along with your classmates?" Her voice was filled with motherly care and love.
Chen Yi nodded and replied, "Yes, everything is fine, Mom. My classmates are nice, and we get along well." A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he was thinking about the special experience he had with his classmates tonight. His father teased, "How about your studies? Don't just play around, remember to study hard." Although his tone was light, his eyes revealed his expectations for his son's future.
After dinner, Chen Yi took the initiative to help clean up, neatly placing the dishes, chopsticks, and leftover food in the kitchen sink. His movements were skilled and orderly, showing his familiarity with household chores. Seeing her son being so proactive, his mother smiled with satisfaction, feeling comforted by her son's growth and sense of responsibility.
While tidying up the dining table, Dad began talking about some family matters, such as recent family plans or new developments among relatives. Chen Yi listened while busy cleaning up, occasionally interjecting with comments or expressing his own opinions. Mom then brought out a large basin for washing dishes from the kitchen and started washing the dishes and utensils. She shared some interesting stories from the community while washing, her voice warm and full of joy, adding a touch of happiness and warmth to the home.
After finishing the dishes, Chen Yi dried his hands and returned to the living room with his parents. They sat on the sofa and started watching TV together. The TV was playing a lighthearted family drama, and Dad and Mom occasionally chuckled. Chen Yi sat between them, feeling the warmth and intimacy of the family.
