When Li Ya saw Tongtong's appearance, the image of her as a child with a serious, unsmiling face immediately came to mind.

His appearance has changed a lot since he was a child, but his eyes have remained the same.

Moreover, she had always thought that the teacher called Lin Tong was just someone with the same name as her childhood friend, and even if he wasn't an old man, he should be a middle-aged man.

Only then did she realize that he was Lin Tong.

"Lin Tong, it's been a long time."

She walked over and reached out her hand to him.

Tongtong's gaze fell on her face: a face as white as paper, eyes like glass, and golden hair; she was a beautiful foreign girl, like a porcelain doll.

"Who are you?" Tongtong shook hands with her briefly, then quickly let go, looking at her with a probing gaze.

Li Ya shook her head and smiled, "Tongtong, have you forgotten me? I'm Sophia! We used to play together when we were little!"

After listening to her introduction, Tongtong's thoughts seemed to return to her childhood, when Sophia was brought home by her parents and she loved to follow them around.

They played together a few times, but later she returned to country M with her parents and never saw them again.

Unexpectedly, they would meet under such circumstances.

Just as he was about to say something, Wu Jing came over to explain the filming process to them, so he nodded and smiled at her before getting back to work.

After explaining the process, Wu Jing formally introduced Lin Tong to everyone.

The classmates who had just looked down on him were now bowing their heads in shame.

"Teacher Lin, I'm sorry, we were very rude just now." The quick-tongued student had already begun to apologize.

Wu Jing had only told them Lin Tong's name, not his age.

Just hearing his name filled them with admiration; they assumed he was some accomplished middle-aged man. Now that they knew he was only in his early twenties, about the same age as themselves, their admiration only grew.

Of course, they were also waiting to see if he actually had any real talent or ability.

Over the next few hours, the debate team began mock debates, with Lin Tong observing and taking notes. After each round of debate, he would point out their problems.

The issues he pointed out were always incisive, hitting the nail on the head and directly addressing everyone's weaknesses.

After several rounds of debate, Sofia was completely outmatched by him.

"They really show no mercy!" she thought to herself.

When it finally ended, everyone looked at Tongtong with a mixture of respect and fear.

Goodbye, Teacher Lin.

Upon hearing that the first round of reviews was over, they quickly said goodbye and made their escape.

Sofia stayed behind, waiting for Tongtong to finish packing so they could go out together.

"Lin Tong, you really haven't changed at all!" Sophia put her hands behind her back and walked backwards.

Tongtong raised an eyebrow. "Do you still remember what I was like before?"

Sofia smiled and said, "Of course I remember. I've imagined countless times what you would be like if we met again, but it seems you haven't changed much!"

As she was speaking, there was a telephone pole just centimeters behind her. Seeing that she was about to touch it, Tongtong immediately pulled her back.

"careful."

Sofia was suddenly pulled by him, and she lost her balance and fell towards him.

Tongtong quickly shielded her with her shoulder.

Despite years of development, the city's streetlights remain as dim as ever.

Under the warm light, the two looked up and down, creating an atmosphere of ambiguity.

A slight blush appeared on Sofia's alabaster skin, and she quickly moved away from him.

"I'm sorry."

Tongtong smiled and suggested, "Look ahead when you walk, why are you still as reckless as before!"

Sofia, clutching her hair, walked beside him, then suddenly realized something and gasped.

"Lin Tong, so you remember me too, don't you?"

A few years ago, her parents died in a car accident, leaving her a huge fortune.

But she still had a lingering affection for China, so she came to China to study.

As for why she didn't look for Tongtong, it's because she knew that when her parents left, the conflict with Lin Tong's mother wasn't very honorable.

She felt ashamed to face Lin Tong.

However, now that they had met, and they had gotten along so well on QQ, she had no reservations and started chatting with him casually.

After the two finished recounting their experiences over the years, Sophia inquired about Jiao Jiao's situation.

“Jiaojiao also lives in this city and runs a garment factory. If you want to meet her, I can give you her mobile phone number.”

Tongtong said.

As he spoke, he pulled a small, exquisite cell phone out of his pocket.

At that time, small mobile phones were not yet popular, and the most commonly used mobile phones were PHS phones.

Sofia, adapting to local customs, also has one.

She took out her red mobile phone, saved Jiao Jiao's number, and then asked him for it.

Tongtong naturally gave her number and asked her to call back.

When his mobile phone rang, he glanced at the number and memorized it instantly.

After the two exchanged numbers, they had already arrived at the Huaqing campus.

Sophia lived in the Huaqing dormitory, but when they arrived at the dormitory building, they found that the door was closed and curfew had been imposed.

She quickly went to knock on the dormitory supervisor's door.

I knocked for a long time, but the door remained closed. The dormitory supervisor was probably out running errands.

It's past midnight now, and even if the dorm supervisor were here, she might not be allowed in.

The main problem was that she was blonde and blue-eyed, and she didn't have any identification, so no one dared to risk letting her in.

"Why don't you come stay at my place for the night?" Tongtong suggested.

Seeing her hesitation, he immediately explained that he lived in an apartment, and although there was only one bed, he could sleep on the sofa.

"Or, I can take you back to the courtyard house, where there are more rooms."

Seeing that she hadn't decided yet, Tongtong offered another solution.

Previously, he had always coldly rejected girls who clung to him and wanted him to take them home.

But now, he considers Sofia's accommodation for tonight his top priority.

She can stay in a hotel, but she doesn't have any identification, so he needs to accompany her.

Sofia pouted and thought for a while before finally deciding to go home with him.

Half an hour later, Tongtong led her into her own little world.

There was a shoe cabinet by the door, containing only a few pairs of men's slippers.

After Tongtong helped her hang up her bag, she gave her a pair of slippers and told her to change into them.

Walking inside, you'll find the living room, complete with a TV, sofa, desk, computer, printer, copier, and various other equipment. The space is crowded yet orderly.

"That's the bedroom over there, and the bathroom over there..."

Tongtong showed her the layout of the house and asked if she wanted to take a shower.

Sofia thought that since she was sleeping in his bed, she should wash up before sleeping, but then she remembered that she didn't have any clothes to change into, so she hesitated.

Unexpectedly, Tongtong pulled out a women's nightgown.
