"Oh no, oh no, I forgot to hide it. If Qin Chuan sees it, how will I explain? Will he think I'm a promiscuous girl?"

Gu Yu was in a panic, her pretty face turning deathly pale with fright.

"Uh, my shoelace came untied. I'll tie it, give me a moment." Qin Chuan crouched down as he spoke.

Seeing this, Gu Yu quickly stuffed the bag from the passenger seat under the rear seat and hid it.

After finishing all that, she hurriedly looked toward Qin Chuan.

Only when she realized Qin Chuan was still tying his shoelaces did she secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Luckily Qin Chuan didn't notice, otherwise it would be impossible to explain even if I jumped into the Yellow River." Gu Yu felt grateful inside.

Soon after, having finished tying his shoelaces, Qin Chuan plopped into the passenger seat.

"Uh, where are you headed again?" Gu Yu asked instinctively, still shaken.

"To the school, back to the school." Qin Chuan silently tightened the seatbelt across his chest, seeming a bit tense.

He wasn't blind; he clearly saw the large bag of lingerie on the passenger seat.

Not only had he seen the lingerie, but he had also seen Gu Yu wearing it before.

The reason he pretended not to see was purely to spare Gu Yu's feelings, so she wouldn't be too embarrassed and unable to drive steadily.

This was all for safety's sake.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yu, the oblivious goose, was still affected.

Looking at her now, Qin Chuan thought she probably couldn't even tell east from west.

"Are you okay?" Qin Chuan couldn't help but ask, "What if I take a taxi instead?"

"No problem! I'm fine! I'm great!"

As soon as she heard Qin Chuan suggest getting a taxi, Gu Yu reflexively widened her eyes and clumsily tried to hide her inner panic.

"Then, how about turning off the wipers? You're supposed to turn there, right?" Qin Chuan tugged tightly at the seatbelt, amused yet helpless.

"Ah…"

Gu Yu's face flushed red as she realized she had mistaken the wipers for the turn signal.

"Sorry, I just…" Gu Yu mumbled incoherently.

"No worries, just drive carefully."

For the sake of his own safety, Qin Chuan dared not say anymore, fearing he might inadvertently provoke Gu Yu.

Fortunately, Gu Yu's Wuling Hongguang mini finally managed to stop in the Jiang University's parking lot, which usually took twenty minutes but today took a painstaking forty.

"Thank heavens."

Qin Chuan secretly felt relieved.

"Qin, Qin Chuan."

Gu Yu timidly called out to Qin Chuan, who was about to leave.

"Is there something?" Qin Chuan's eye twitched, worried Gu Yu might bring up the topic of renting a room.

For a man to be compelled to this extent, Qin Chuan thought it had to be unique.

"Has your strength improved?" Gu Yu asked in a voice as soft as a mosquito, keeping her head down.

"Of course it has. I said I have a way; I can take down two tigers now." Qin Chuan responded with feigned composure.

"That's good then," Gu Yu stammered.

"I have some stuff to deal with, gotta go, see you next time." Qin Chuan made up a clumsy excuse and fled the parking lot in a hurry.

"Sigh…"

Gu Yu watched his departing figure, silently sighed, and appeared deeply melancholy.

After Qin Chuan left the parking lot, as usual, he went to wait at the base of the teaching building for Ye Wenxi and the others to finish class.

Near the end of class, instead of Ye Wenxi and company, Su Qian brought along Uncle Feng who had helped him before, Feng Xiyang.

Qin Chuan didn't have a good impression of Feng Xiyang.

He's like a fence-sitter.

When the Young Hall Master from the Dog Hall, Xiang Jinghui, scolded him, he immediately wagged his tail like a lap dog.

However, Qin Chuan couldn't be bothered to fuss over such people; it was best if everyone kept to themselves.

"I didn't expect you to survive this long."

He ignored Feng Xiyang, but the latter apparently didn't intend to let him off.

Upon meeting, Feng Xiyang's face had a hint of cold sarcasm.

His superior gaze looking down on him made Qin Chuan very displeased: "Thanks to you, I should live longer than you."

"Hehe…"

Feng Xiyang laughed instead of getting angry: "Your antics in Jiang City have been quite a spectacle lately; even at my level, your name is frequently mentioned."

Regarding Feng Xiyang's intentionally flaunted superiority, Qin Chuan scoffed: "If my news can reach your ears, it seems the level you're at isn't that high after all."

"Youthful, fiery temperament, can't be calm at all."

Feng Xiyang smiled and shook his head: "I'm not your enemy, no need to speak so sharply; I'm not here for you today."

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan almost burst out laughing.

What's this all about?

Acting superior and sarcastic right upon meeting.

Now turning the tables and blaming him for speaking sharply?

Qin Chuan found this kind of double-standard person as first-time encountering.

However, calming down, Qin Chuan quickly realized.

If Feng Xiyang wasn't here for him, he must be here for Su Qian.

So Su Qian still went to her dad for help?

That silly girl.

Analyzing this, Qin Chuan felt a warmth in his heart.

Soon, the class bell rang.

Ye Wenxi and Su Qian slowly descended the stairs, and Qin Chuan quickly noticed their figures.

From the looks of it, their mood seemed low.

"Brother Xiaochuan…"

Despite low spirits, when Su Qian saw Qin Chuan, she still tried hard to muster a smile.

Beside her, Ye Wenxi did the same.

Both tried their best to appear as though nothing was amiss in front of Qin Chuan.

But soon, Su Qian spotted Feng Xiyang's figure.

Her face immediately fell: "Uncle Feng, didn't I ask you to wait for me at the school gate? Why did you come in?"

"Nothing else to do, so I came in for a stroll."

Feng Xiyang glanced at Qin Chuan with amusement, then provocatively said, "Miss, get in the car."

"You!"

Su Qian gritted her teeth, obviously angered.

Originally, she didn't want Qin Chuan to know about contacting her father, fearing Qin Chuan would worry about her.

Unexpectedly, Feng Xiyang blatantly ignored her, directly showing up at the teaching building.

This guy was clearly trying to let Qin Chuan know about the situation.

She even suspected this was her father's intention.

The aim was to make Qin Chuan see their disparity and back off.

"Damn it!" Su Qian seethed.

"Miss, the master is waiting at home," Feng Xiyang teased.

"I know, no need for your reminder!" Su Qian glared fiercely at Feng Xiyang.

Then she couldn't help but glance at Qin Chuan, her bright eyes filled with deep emotion.

She then forced a smile, her eyes misting over: "Brother Xiaochuan, I, I have to go home, we'll meet tomorrow."

Having said that, she turned hurriedly, without waiting for Qin Chuan's response, and got into the Maybach Feng Xiyang drove.

She was afraid that if she waited a second longer, her tears would fall.

Afraid that if she waited longer, Qin Chuan would notice her unease.

If she waited any longer, she'd be reluctant to leave.

Because she knew, this farewell could perhaps be the last one.

Through the car window, Su Qian's crystal tears rolled down one by one: "Brother Xiaochuan, please take care and live well."
