"Do you want to find a place to change your clothes first? Or, just go back to my suburban villa with me? Don't forget, you still have the responsibility to protect me!" Chu Xixuan said weakly.

"Not today! I still have a lot of books at the Lan family's! I have to sort them out and study hard! Tomorrow... tomorrow as soon as I get home from school, I'll go to your place, okay?" Lan Ziye clasped his hands together, looked at Chu Xixuan eagerly, and begged.

Seeing that Chu Xixuan was indifferent and had no reaction, Lan Ziye said again: "How about...how about you go back to the Chu family's old house first? The security there must be very good. Besides, your injuries are so serious, you must find a doctor to see you, right? It's not convenient for me to follow you all the time!" After saying that, he looked at Chu Xixuan eagerly.

There was no other way. After all, most of her books were at the Lan family's. The few books she usually carried in her bag were just for show. Besides, she knew Lan Yanfeng had been an outstanding graduate, and even Lan Xiaoqi had good grades. She needed to learn a thing or two from them, at least to understand what Lanxuan Academy's typical exams were like.

She never fights a battle without confidence. Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory. Besides, this exam is so important!

Chu Xixuan thought for a moment and replied, "Okay!"

Lan Ziye laughed and said proudly, "That's right!"

Chu Xixuan looked at Lan Ziye's flying eyebrows and couldn't help but smile dotingly.

It must be said that entering through the back door was a wise move. As expected, apart from a few unfamiliar servants, no one from the Lan family saw her. She could return to her room unnoticed without worrying about others knowing that she and Chu Xixuan knew each other. (^_^)

Unexpectedly, when Lan Ziye walked to his room and was about to open the door, he was stopped by Lan Yanfeng behind him.

"Xiao Yeye, why are you dressed like this?" Lan Yanfeng asked with concern.

Lan Ziye turned around and said with an awkward smile: "Well...I completed a mission!"

Lan Yanfeng glanced at the blood on Lan Ziye's body, frowned, and asked, "Going to kill monsters again?"

"Hehehe, yes!" Lan Ziye continued to smile perfunctorily.

"I just saw a Bugatti car at the back door. Was that the car that brought you back?" Lan Yanfeng asked again.

Car? No way, going through the back door and being caught by Lan Yanfeng? That's such bad luck! (???︿???)

Lan Ziye felt like he could go and cry.

"That...that's my partner, partner!" Lan Ziye continued to force a smile.

"Your partner is Chu Xixuan?" Lan Yanfeng asked with his brows furrowed even more.

"Chu Xixuan? How is that possible? Hehehe, hehehe!" Lan Ziye decided to never admit it.

"Not everyone can afford a Bugatti. I remember Chu Xixuan drove a car like that!" Lan Yanfeng said again.

"Aren't you paying attention to the car? Maybe you saw it wrong?" Lan Ziye felt like he couldn't bear it any longer, even the smile on his face was so stiff that it hurt.

"Did I see it wrong?" Lan Yanfeng looked at Lan Ziye suspiciously.

Lan Ziye secretly encouraged himself in his heart and said confidently, "Yes, you saw it wrong! I don't recognize any car. I only know that it is my partner in this mission. We completed the mission, so it's normal for him to send me back! It's not Chu Xixuan, you recognized the wrong person!"

"Okay, I'm so tired! I need to rest. You should go back too!" Lan Ziye said as he opened the door and rushed into the room.
