Chapter 218: Forced Friendship

Hearing Wang Yimo say this, Lin Yilan scratched her head embarrassedly. She looked up at the clock. Only ten minutes had really passed, but... in her world, it felt like a really long time had passed...

Lin Yilan picked up the pen, shook her head, and tried to cheer herself up, but ultimately failed. "Yi Mo, how about we chat for a while? I'm really sleepy now and can't hear anything."

"But if we chat now, I won't be able to finish the class in the allotted time. Isn't that bad? Besides, Sister Yilan will be having dinner by then, and I haven't finished the class yet. I'm embarrassed to let Sister Yilan listen to my lecture on an empty stomach..."

Seeing Wang Yimo's embarrassment, Lin Yilan waved her hand generously, "What's the big deal? You can just have dinner with me at Huo's house. Maybe I can remember your lectures better at the dinner table."

"What if I can't finish my talk after dinner? I'm afraid it will be dangerous if I go home too late." Wang Yimo pretended to be embarrassed and looked very embarrassed on the surface, but at this moment she was like a cunning fox, always calculating the most favorable outcome for herself.

Lin Yilan naturally didn't notice the glint in Wang Yimo's eyes. When she heard Wang Yimo say that he was worried about being in danger, she really began to think about the consequences of letting Wang Yimo go home late...

In the end, Lin Yilan felt that such words were indeed a bit inappropriate. It was really dangerous for a girl like Wang Yimo to walk alone at night. She couldn't let Wang Yimo fall into unknown danger just because she wanted to be lazy for a moment. It was really unkind to do so.

"It's really unsafe to let you walk alone at night. I was so preoccupied with myself that I forgot about you. So hurry up and tell me. I'll listen carefully and I won't let you go home so late."

When Wang Yimo heard Lin Yilan say this, she couldn't help but hold her forehead. She didn't expect Lin Yilan to be so naive. She didn't mean to reject Lin Yilan's proposal to take a rest.

Moreover, as Lin Yilan's personal trainer, even if Lin Yilan really wants to rest now, she has to listen to Lin Yilan. However, Lin Yilan is too naive and always discusses everything with Wang Yimo.

At first, Wang Yimo didn't expect Lin Yilan to be such a friendly person. It was not until she got to know her over the past two days that she realized that Lin Yilan really didn't have any airs of a rich person.

But now facing Lin Yilan who gave up her idea after she said a few words of inconvenience, she could only say that compared to her initial assumption that Lin Yilan would have all kinds of bad tempers, on the contrary, Lin Yilan was even simpler than Wang Yimo had imagined.

But how could Wang Yimo give up her idea so easily? She looked at Lin Yilan who picked up the pen and carefully marked the knowledge points, and a strange smile appeared on her face.

"Sister Yilan, I've actually wanted a sister since I was little. When I was little, all my friends had brothers and sisters, but I'm the only girl in the family. I don't have a brother, a sister, or even a younger brother or sister. Whenever I see other people with brothers and sisters around them, I'm really envious."

Hearing Wang Yimo's words, Lin Yilan raised her head and looked at Wang Yimo with some confusion. She couldn't understand why she had just urged her to study and now she was talking to her about these things.

However, Lin Yilan was just about to take a break. Facing what Wang Yimo said, she held her chin up seriously and began to listen to her next words patiently.

Wang Yimo looked at Lin Yilan like this, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and then said, "When I was in college, I wondered when I could make a friend who could treat her as both a sister and a friend."

"Did you make friends like that later on? The friends you met during your university years must have been pretty impressive, so you should get to know them if you get the chance."

"Of course not. I originally had this idea, but unfortunately, my studies were too tight and I had no time to make friends. Even now, I don't have a single true friend. Sigh."

Wang Yimo sighed as she spoke, observing Lin Yilan's expression. Just as she expected, Lin Yilan smiled at her after hearing her words, then gently patted her shoulder.

"What's the big deal? You're such an outstanding girl, you can make friends as much as you want. You're just pushing yourself too hard. Anyway, you've graduated now and will soon start working for the company. You can make a lot of friends while you can."

"Then Sister Yilan, are you willing to be my friend?"

Lin Yilan didn't expect Wang Yimo to say that and was slightly surprised. Seeing this, Wang Yimo pretended to look pitiful and lowered his head.

"I'm sorry, Sister Yilan. If you don't want to, forget it. Actually, from the first moment I saw you, I felt that you were very familiar. Even though we are about the same age, I can still feel the feeling of a sister from you that I have always longed for..."

Wang Yimo had said so much, there was no reason for Lin Yilan to refuse. She could only laugh dryly. Although Lin Yilan didn't know Wang Yimo very well, after spending the past two days with her, she felt that this girl was not bad.

Thinking of this, Lin Yilan nodded in agreement, "Of course, if you want to go out and play in the future, or want to find someone to have dinner with you, you can find me if I have time."

"Really?" Wang Yimo raised his head and looked at Lin Yilan, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Lin Yilan was genuinely frightened by Wang Yimo's excitement. Did this girl really want to be her friend? Lin Yilan couldn't figure it out. Perhaps the truth was really what Wang Yimo said.

However, when Wang Yimo lowered his head, Lin Yilan ignored Wang Yimo's determined smile.

"Of course."

"If we are friends, can I sleep with Sister Yilan today? Ever since I was six years old, I have slept alone. When I watched TV dramas before, I really wanted to have a best friend, to chat with my best friend under the covers at night, but I haven't found such a person in all these years..."

Wang Yimo said, glancing at Lin Yilan, "Sis Yilan is my friend now, so can you fulfill this little wish of mine?"

When Lin Yilan heard Wang Yimo say that he wanted to sleep with her, she initially refused. She was actually more accustomed to sleeping alone. However, looking at Wang Yimo's eyes full of hope, the words of refusal came to her lips, but for a moment she couldn't say them.

"Yimo, actually...actually I'm not used to sleeping with others."

"Is that so... It's okay. Sister Yilan can chat with me tonight. The Huo family should have a guest room, I can sleep in it."
