The Lin residence.

When Lin Xun and Gu Yan Yan returned, the butler came over.

"Madam, young master, the young mistress has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xun and his companion were taken aback. Lin Xun's face immediately lit up with surprise, and he quickened his pace toward the villa entrance.

Yes, he had heard from Senior Jiang that she had come to see him, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Inside the living room, a beautiful figure sat on the sofa, still as charming as ever.

As if sensing something, the girl looked up and saw Lin Xun entering the room.

Their eyes met, and their gazes softened simultaneously.

Lin Xun jogged a few steps to sit down beside her, took her hand, and whispered, "Have you been waiting long?"

Su Qingshi shook her head: "I just arrived not long ago. Are you done with your work?"

Lin Xun nodded slightly: "I'm done with my work for now."

He didn't tell her that he had gone to see her mother.

Looking at the weariness on Lin Xun's face, Su Qingshi felt a pang of heartache and reached out to cover his face: "No matter how busy you are, don't overwork yourself."

Lin Xun took her hand and nodded with a smile, "I'll be careful."

"Cough cough."

At that moment, an untimely voice rang out.

The two quickly separated, and when they saw Gu Yanyan's teasing expression, their faces flushed slightly.

"Hehe, you young people are so romantic," Gu Yanyan teased.

Su Qingshi blushed, stood up, and quickly said, "Auntie, I'm sorry for coming uninvited."

Gu Yanyan walked over, took her hand, and smiled, "We're all family, why say such things? This is your second home, come whenever you want. Besides, didn't I say I wouldn't call you Auntie anymore?"

A blush crossed Su Qingshi's face as she said, "Sister Gu."

"Hey! Are you hungry from catching your flight? I'll have the housekeeper cook."

Gu Yan Yan smiled with satisfaction.

Su Qingshi felt a warmth in her heart; she knew this family genuinely cared for her.

Before long, the housekeeper had prepared the meal. After the meal, Lin Xun took her hand and went for a walk in the manor.

"Qingshi, did you ask for leave?"

Lin Xun asked, puzzled.

The golden rays of the setting sun fell on the girl, as if she were draped in a layer of holy divine light.

Su Qingshi nodded gently: "Mm."

Lin Xun was deeply moved. He knew the girl was worried about him, which was why she came to find him.

He raised his hand and ruffled her hair: "Didn't I tell you I'm fine?"

Su Qingshi pouted and said unhappily, "I can only feel at ease when I see that you are really okay."

She looked at Lin Xun and asked, "Now can you tell me what you've been doing these past two days?"

Lin Xun smiled mysteriously and said, "It'll be a secret for now. I'll give you a surprise later!"

"surprise?"

Su Qingshi tilted her head, looking somewhat depressed.

The junior student has gone astray and is even keeping it from her now.

However, she felt much more at ease than before, since he hadn't really gotten into trouble.

As for surprises, she was quite looking forward to them, but more than him, she hoped he would be safe and sound.

"Then stay at my place tonight?" Lin Xun asked with a smile.

Su Qingshi nodded: "It's so late, it's not appropriate to go back to Nancheng."

After strolling around the manor, the two suddenly stopped.

Not far away, a servant walked over with a dog. The pet dog was very large, about the size of a person, with white fur and a silly look.

"Greetings, young master! Greetings, young mistress!"

Upon seeing the two, the servants immediately greeted them respectfully.

Lin Xun nodded, then looked at the dog: "Has Da Bai eaten?"

He knew his dog, but he didn't have the habit of keeping pets, so he didn't pay much attention to it, only knowing that its name was Da Bai.

The servant replied respectfully, "Young master, we've already fed him. Da Bai's dinner tonight is pork ribs, chicken, and fish."

Lin Xun nodded, then raised an eyebrow, feeling a little strange.

How can a dog seem to eat better than a human?

"Woof!"

At this moment, Da Bai barked and stuck its tongue out at Su Qingshi.

Su Qingshi met its gaze with calm eyes.

The big white dog seemed to have been provoked by something and suddenly started struggling. The servant exclaimed and quickly pulled it back, but ultimately she was no match for its strength.

Big White dragged the servant to Su Qingshi, its tongue lolling out, and its upper body rose up, trying to rub against Su Qingshi.

Lin Xun blocked its path, watching it warily.

“Don’t worry, it means no harm,” Su Qingshi suddenly said.

Lin Xun was somewhat surprised: "Qing Shi, you've kept pets before?"

Su Qingshi nodded: "I used to have a dog, but it ran away later."

Thinking of this, a complex emotion flashed across her eyes.

At the same time, she took a few steps forward and reached out to pat Big White's head.

The latter stuck out his tongue obsequiously, clearly trying to please her.

Lin Xun's lips twitched.

"Young Madam, Da Bai seems to like you a lot," the maid said, somewhat surprised.

Su Qingshi smiled slightly, patted the big white dog's head, and asked, "Is it Sister Gu's pet?"

The maid replied respectfully, "Yes, Da Bai is a pet that Madam adopted a few years ago."

"Male or female?" Lin Xun suddenly asked.

"Yes, young master, it's a male."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xun's face immediately darkened: "Take him away."

Damn, he should have said so earlier! He didn't want this male dog to touch his senior!

The servant nodded respectfully and then led Big White away.

Su Qingshi looked at him amusedly: "Why are you jealous of a dog?"

"Let's eat!"

Lin Xun stubbornly raised his nose and then said, "Let's go back to the room and wash our hands."

The next day, Lin Xun and Su Qingshi returned to Nanjing University by car.

"Has Qing Shi finished her graduation project?" Lin Xun asked curiously.

Su Qingshi nodded: "It's done."

Lin Xun asked, "Is there anything else?"

Su Qingshi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "That's all. There's just one final exam, and that'll be the end of the semester. I'll go for my internship next semester."

Lin Xun nodded.

Basically, by the time students reach their senior year, it's time for them to put their knowledge into practice. Their tasks include completing their graduation project, doing internships, and preparing for graduation and employment.

Time flies, a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

They've been together for eight months!

As time went by, their relationship matured and they became inseparable, becoming the envy of everyone on campus.

Since the last incident, everyone at the school has tacitly accepted their relationship, and more and more people are supporting them. In fact, Lin Xun has gained a lot of female and male fans because of that time.

After all, who wouldn't admire a strong and protective husband?

After returning to school, Lin Xun took Su Qingshi to the girls' dormitory and then went back to his own dormitory.

"You're back? How did things go?"

Upon seeing Lin Xun return, his roommates unexpectedly started gossiping.

Lin Xun smiled mysteriously: "That's about it."
