She just stood there watching you, motionless.

Even though Xu Lin often watched horror movie explanations, he was still startled.

"What are you doing here?"

Xu Lin walked over, pulled Rong Xiyan into the guest bedroom, and closed the door behind him, speaking in a hushed tone.

Even though Ning Yuhuan was exhausted and dead asleep, Xu Lin still didn't speak loudly.

If there was an explosion, it really would be a disaster.

During summer vacation, when he was still a ghostwriter, while dealing with the chaotic scenes of the female leads in Moonlit Night's novels, Xu Lin could make things up as he pleased.

But that was a novel.

Now Xu Lin was dealing with reality!

"The school couldn't find you, so I came."

"Didn't I say I was here with the senior? Why did you still come?"

"I wanted you to be with me."

Rong Xiyan reached out and hugged Xu Lin.

"Can it be next time? I need to go back to my room."

"No, stay with me tonight!"

Rong Xiyan said and then kissed Xu Lin on the lips.

Xu Lin was actually a bit annoyed that Rong Xiyan came over without a word, which made it easy to cause a direct explosion.

"Just keep me company for an hour, okay?"

Rong Xiyan said pitifully, "I don't have many friends at school, Yaoyao also has to rehearse the dance for the school's freshman evening party, and no one is playing games with me. You also came here with Ning Yuhuan, and I just feel all alone."

Xu Lin felt a bit soft-hearted and patted her back.

Then lay down on the bed with Rong Xiyan.

"Xu Lin, stay with me."

"Am I not with you?"

"Mmm, mmm...keep me company...Xu Lin, can you listen to my family matters? I'm a bit troubled."

"You talk and I'll listen."

Rong Xiyan then opened her heart.

"My mom passed away a few years ago. Later, my dad brought my so-called stepmother and her two children to live at our house. That's when I learned that on the day my mom gave birth to me, in the maternity room next door, my stepmother gave birth to twins. My mom always knew this and was always depressed. Later, she fell ill and passed away, and less than two months later, my dad brought those three to live with us. What's worse, one time I came home from school to find that my stepmother, that vicious woman, had thrown away my mom's things. I couldn't find them and had a huge fight with her. I don't want to go home anymore; it's so frustrating...now those three even want to take over my mom's inheritance, which was left for me. But my dad wants to leave it for my brother, and my stepmother is always whispering in his ear...and my dad especially loves those two siblings of mine, especially my brother. It's like I've become a marginal person in my own home. In that home, I can't seem to feel any warmth. My dad doesn't love me either; he hasn't cared about me in a long time..."

Rong Xiyan talked with Xu Lin for more than half an hour.

"Xu Lin, are you listening?"

"I'm listening the whole time."

"Xu Lin, stay with me, don't leave me."

Rong Xiyan huddled in Xu Lin's arms, feeling very fragile at this moment, only wanting to rely on Xu Lin.

Originally, Xu Lin only planned to stay there for an hour, but ended up staying until dawn.

When Ning Yuhuan groggily woke up, she reached beside her, only to find Xu Lin wasn't there.

"Husband?"

She called out, rubbing her eyes.

"Husband?"

"Husband?"

"What?"

Xu Lin came in from outside, "Just went to the bathroom."

"Oh, oh!"

Ning Yuhuan didn't think much of it, just got up and got dressed.

In the morning, the two of them went about their morning routines.

They left before seven o'clock.

As Xu Lin went downstairs, he also sent Rong Xiyan a message.

"Are you on your way? There's an early class today."

"I'll come down in a bit."

Rong Xiyan quickly replied.

She walked into the master bedroom, still filled with Ning Yuhuan's scent, which made Rong Xiyan a bit agitated.

Rong Xiyan hurriedly opened the window for ventilation and turned on the air conditioner's air purification function.

She didn't like that smell either.

After handling everything, Rong Xiyan left the rental apartment and called a Didi to go to school.

However, when she arrived at the classroom, Xu Lin was not there yet.

It turned out that he and Ning Yuhuan had gone to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Food wasn't allowed in the classroom except for snacks, to avoid strong-smelling foods affecting the class.

Of course, if no one found out, it was fine.

Xu Lin brought Rong Xiyan a cup of soy milk and a steamed bun.

"Why didn't you go to the cafeteria for breakfast this morning?"

Xu Lin handed her the steamed bun and soy milk.

Rong Xiyan smiled and said, "As long as you buy it for me."

"Alright, finish up quickly, class is about to start."

"Mmm, mmm."

Rong Xiyan, munching on the steamed bun, said, "Are we going to the Music College tonight?"

"Jiangdu Music College?"

"Yes."

"What are we going there for?"

"The Music College has a freshman evening party tonight. Yaoyao has a performance; she can sing and dance, multi-talented, super impressive!"

Rong Xiyan expressed that she really wanted to go watch.

Finance University also had a freshman evening party tonight, featuring large group performances (chorus, dance troupe), small group performances (like cross talk), and singing (solo or duet). Basically, every school's freshman evening party was more or less the same, mostly those kinds of acts.

Xu Lin wasn't interested in the freshman evening party either.

"Alright, I'll go with you tonight!"

During class, Xu Lin thought for a while about buying a vehicle.

Not four wheels, two wheels.

He didn't plan to buy four wheels for now. Maybe early next year or at the end of the year.

An electric vehicle could be bought for now.

Xu Lin missed the electric scooter he had at home, which allowed him to navigate through streets and alleys, ignoring any rush hour traffic.

"Xu Lin, what are you looking at?"

During class, Rong Xiyan leaned over and saw Xu Lin looking at electric vehicles.
