Lin Tian and the others stepped out of the dorm with their books and pens, only to be hit by a wave of heat.

Even though it's already September, the weather is still scorching, and without air conditioning, they quickly started sweating heavily.

Lin Tian could use Spiritual Qi to cool himself down, but Li and Meng Nan weren't that lucky.

They quickly ran up to Lin Tian, forming a human wall to stop him, and soon they were sweating from their heads and backs, their shirts soaking through in no time.

"Hey, second brother, what exactly happened between you and that guy? I'm dying to know!"

During the first meal at Dorm 250 when they sized each other up, Meng Nan usually called him 'Third Brother,' but now he switched to 'that guy,' showing just how displeased Meng Nan was with him.

Li stood to the side, nodding his head, then adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and said, "It must be related to the Wang Family being acquired, right?"

Lin Tian asked in surprise, "You guys already knew about the news this morning?"

"How could we not know? The eldest son of the Wang Family is in our dorm, and such big news has already spread far and wide, but with the eldest son in the dorm, Meng Nan and I were too embarrassed to bring it up."

"Let's talk while we walk, we're almost late for class."

On the way, Lin Tian briefly recounted the past few days to the two.

Of course, he kept some things hidden, only giving them the gist of it.

Meng Nan released the hand that was on Lin Tian's shoulder, then took a step back and said in astonishment, "So you're saying you've been kept by the former bigwig of Kanyue City, Bai Shishi?"

Lin Tian playfully cursed, "You talk such nonsense, what do you mean I'm being kept?"

"Isn't that being kept? You helped her with so many things and didn't even get a share. She just said 'I'll ask you if I need money,' isn't that being kept?"

Lin Tian was speechless with anger, if anyone is keeping someone, it's me keeping her, okay!

But he couldn't say that because... Liou Qingcheng and Sisi were heading over.

Lin Tian quickly gave Meng Nan and Li a look, meaning: keep what we just talked about a secret.

It's better if Qingcheng doesn't know about Bai Shishi, or it might stir up trouble.

Li immediately returned a reassuring look to Lin Tian.

Sisi approached and teased, "Oh, isn't this the great Defense Group Leader Lin? How come you found time to attend class today? And here you are exchanging looks with your dorm mates, don't tell me you guys have some special hobby?"

"Tsk tsk... Men are scary."

Lin Tian's face immediately darkened, why does this girl always make fun of me as soon as she arrives?

Meng Nan, upon seeing Sisi, smiled so broadly that he looked like a blooming chrysanthemum. At almost six feet tall, he hopped next to Sisi like a little girl, sweetly calling, "Sisi~ you're here."

Seeing this, Lin Tian felt a chill run through him, goosebumps covering his body.

How did this guy suddenly become so disgusting?

Liou Qingcheng chuckled and said to Lin Tian, "A few days ago Sisi told Meng Nan that she likes gentle guys. And then... Meng Nan became the way he is now."

Lin Tian quickly said, "Meng Nan, this isn't gentle... can you act normally?"

"You're lying, this is what gentle looks like! Sisi even said I'm cute!"

Meng Nan put on a girly demeanor, almost making Lin Tian and Li want to throw up...

Sisi's face turned red, not from shyness, but from trying hard to suppress her laughter.

Liou Qingcheng, facing away from the two, didn't see any of this, and pulling Lin Tian's hand, she said, "Let's go, class is starting soon."

Lin Tian laughed helplessly, knowing that Liou Qingcheng definitely had something to say to him.

The two of them walked down the tree-lined path towards the teaching building, with Sisi, Mengnan, and Li not following, clearly leaving some space for the couple.

After a long silence, Liou Qingcheng, smiling like a little girl, began to swing Lin Tian's hand back and forth.

"You're in a good mood, huh?" Lin Tian asked.

"Yeah." Liou Qingcheng nodded, "Pretty good. You weren't at school recently, and I've been watching Sisi and Mengnan stick together all the time, it was really gross."

"Watching every day? I think I need to take you for a stomach cleanse, don't get sick from being disgusted."

Liou Qingcheng burst into laughter, lightly hitting Lin Tian and scolding, "You're so annoying, I'm not the one who's sick. Oh right, was it you who acquired the three Wang Family companies? I heard from my mom that the Wang Family has a complex background, you should be careful."

"Yeah, no worries. The background of the Wang Family is just a few brutes, nothing to worry about."

Liou Qingcheng smiled faintly and didn't say anything more, then suddenly asked, "Lin Tian, there's something I want to ask you."

Lin Tian felt his heart skip a beat, suddenly having a bad premonition.

Could she be asking about Bai Shishi?

How should he explain it to her?

Lin Tian wasn't the type to two-time; his view on love was simple—one man, one woman. But when it came to Liou Qingcheng and Bai Shishi, he was confused and didn't know how to choose.

Trying to hide things was useless; nothing stays hidden forever.

He wanted to be honest with Liou Qingcheng, but it was too difficult to bring up; he didn't know how to say it...

"Did you really sign up for the street dance club?" Liou Qingcheng lowered her head and said, slowing her pace.

Lin Tian was stunned, not expecting her to ask this; the contrast was too big, right?

But anyway, Lin Tian's anxious heart finally calmed down.

After collecting his thoughts, Lin Tian nodded, "Yeah, I signed up."

"Why?" Liou Qingcheng's long eyelashes fluttered as she looked into Lin Tian's eyes.

"Because you like it. You've already given up the dance academy for me, what's the harm in me joining the street dance for you?"

"Is that the only reason?"

"Of course, what else could it be?" Lin Tian felt it was a bit absurd, is this reason really that important?

Liou Qingcheng's bright eyes curved into crescents, her mood lightening up.

Seeing her smile, Lin Tian took a deep breath, as if making a major decision, and solemnly said, "Qingcheng, actually I and Miss Bai..."

Before Lin Tian could finish, Liou Qingcheng interrupted, "I know Miss Bai treats you well, you don't have to tell me what's between you two. Just don't abandon me."

Lin Tian's heart suddenly pounded, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.

Did she already know about Bai Shishi?

Liou Qingcheng lifted her smiling face, tears sliding down her cheeks, and with a smile as beautiful as a flower, said, "Do you remember what flower I like?"

"I remember..."

"I'm your baby's breath!"

A love willing to play the supporting role, just to be by your side.
