Throughout the journey, Jiang Yang only had his sights set on the car and didn't glance at Huang Xiaoni once. Even so, Huang Xiaoni didn't seem to care. Jiang Yang parked the car at the school gate.

Unfortunately, the security guard just closed the door.

Huang Xiaoni, quite coincidentally, can't go back.

Her phone vibrated; it was a message from Li Ke'er, telling her not to go home tonight because the security guard had locked the gate.

"What's wrong? Can't you get in?"

Jiang Yang looked at Huang Xiaoni with a puzzled expression; she looked at her phone with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"Yes, the security guard just locked the gate..."

Jiang Yang nodded knowingly, started the car, and took Huang Xiaoni to the hotel where Chen Yu and Wang Yue were staying.

He booked a room for Huang Xiaoni so she could make do there for the night.

Huang Xiaoni did not refuse and followed Jiang Yang upstairs. Jiang Yang put the car keys on the table and checked the room.

He left only after confirming there were no problems. Before leaving, he told Huang Xiaoni to text or call him if she needed anything.

"Then be careful on your way back."

"Don't worry, I'm leaving."

Jiang Yang closed the door and went out. He checked his phone and saw that another woman was inviting him to drink. After thinking for a while, he realized that if Huang Xiaoni had something to do later and he was drunk, he wouldn't be able to see the message. So he simply refused her invitation to drink.

The girl was a little unhappy. She had asked Jiang Yang out many times, but he had never come.

Jiang Yang rolled his eyes, but instead of going back to school, he booked another room at the hotel.

If I go back now, he'll probably have to climb over the wall again, so I might as well go back tomorrow.

It can also watch three people at the same time.

As soon as he sat down in the room, his stomach started growling, and he was a little hungry.

His phone, which was on the table, vibrated. It was a message from Huang Xiaoni, asking if he had gone home yet and if he wanted to grab a late-night snack together.

Jiang Yang was stunned for a moment, stood up and looked around the room, then looked at the phone in his hand. Had a surveillance camera been installed on him?

He replied with "going downstairs".

This startled Huang Xiaoni, who thought Jiang Yang had already left.

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Jiang Yang standing at the door, one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette.

He captivated Huang Xiaoni once again.

"Jiang Yang".

"Hmm, what would you like to eat?"

Upon hearing Huang Xiaoni's voice, Jiang Yang extinguished his cigarette, and Huang Xiaoni promptly handed him the car keys.

"Shall we go get some porridge? I don't want anything too greasy tonight."

Although Huang Xiaoni said this, she actually knew that Jiang Yang was hungover today and definitely didn't want to eat anything greasy.

"Can."

Jiang Yang drove Huang Xiaoni to a porridge shop, which he thought was the best one.

The boss greeted Jiang Yang and asked if he was the same as usual. Jiang Yang nodded and then asked Huang Xiaoni what she wanted to eat.

Huang Xiaoni glanced at the menu and casually ordered a bowl of porridge.

She wasn't very hungry; she just wanted to see Jiang Yang again.

The two chatted while eating, and Jiang Yang learned some things about Huang Xiaoni. The conversation went quite well.

After they finished eating, Jiang Yang took Huang Xiaoni back to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, she learned that Jiang Yang had also booked a room there, and she was overjoyed as she lay on the bed.

Anyone who didn't know better would think Jiang Yang did it on purpose.

After Huang Xiaoni finished showering, a message popped up on her phone; it was from Jiang Yang.

He told Huang Xiaoni to get some rest and to call him directly if she needed anything.

Jiang Yang said this because he felt sleepy as soon as he lay down on the bed. He knew that Huang Xiaoni was a rich heiress and might not be used to staying in such a cheap hotel. If there was any problem, he could take care of her in time.

Huang Xiaoni didn't reply to the message; she was afraid that if she did, she would have no reason to send him another message.

Chen Yu and Wang Yue slept until after 11 a.m.

The two were woken up by Chen Yu's phone.

Chen Yu opened her phone and saw that it was a call from Shen Yan.

She hung up without answering, but instead sent a message, assuming that Wang Yue was still asleep and dared not answer the phone.

"What is this liquor? How did I get drunk?"

Wang Yue sat up, scratching her head in confusion. She looked around and saw that the person lying next to her was Chen Yu, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

When she first saw that it was a hotel, she felt a shiver run down her spine, wondering if she had forced herself on a man she met on the street.

"I'm not drinking this again, it's awful."

Chen Yu's head was still spinning, and she seemed to be still not fully awake.

"Hey, what time is it? Shouldn't we be checking out?"

"I'll just take a shower and leave."

Chen Yu told Wang Yue to go wash up first. She sent messages to Li Ke'er and Huang Xiaoni to ask if they had gone back yet.

Huang Xiaoni got up around 10 a.m. She replied to Chen Yu, saying that she was also at the same hotel and that she didn't need to worry, as Ke'er had gone back last night.

Li Ke'er was still fast asleep in her dormitory. She had been playing games since she got back last night, and didn't go to sleep until after 4 a.m.

I'll have to sleep until the afternoon.

After everyone had finished getting ready, they met downstairs. To their surprise, Jiang Yang was there too.

What are you doing here?

Why can't I be here?

Jiang Yang looked at Wang Yue strangely, wondering if the girl had drunk herself silly from the cocktail.

"No, didn't you leave?"

"If you can't drink, then don't drink. You've made such a fool of yourself."

Jiang Yang gave Wang Yue a disdainful look; Wang Yue had almost drunk herself onto someone else's table last night.

Wang Yue: Who did I offend?

Huang Xiaoni drove today. We originally planned to have dinner together, but Jiang Yang and Wang Yue were both in a hurry to go back to school to catch up on sleep.

She wanted to send Jiang Yang and Wang Yue back, while Chen Yu and Huang Xiaoni went to a nearby shopping mall to buy some food to take back.

Seeing that Li Ke'er hadn't replied to the message for so long, I knew she hadn't gotten up yet.

The two bought enough food for three people. Chen Yu called Shen Yan to let him know she was safe and then stopped looking at her phone.

She feels terribly nauseous right now and will never drink wine that looks so good again.

Li Ke'er was awakened by the sound of the door opening. She looked at the dormitory door with a blank expression and said, "You guys are back so early."

"Yes, come down and eat something, then go to sleep."

"Uh-huh."

Li Ke'er hummed twice, but actually went back to sleep for a while. After being called again, she slowly climbed off the bed.

Chen Yu looked at Huang Xiaoni, "Last night? How did things go between you and Jiang Yang?"

Her face flushed instantly. "Oh dear, we didn't do anything, we just went out for a late-night snack."

“There’s hope, there’s hope,” Li Ke’er said between bites.

"Really? You really think there's a chance?"

Huang Xiaoni was excited by Li Ke'er's words and looked at her with a burning gaze.

"I think so. On the surface, he seems like a cool guy, but I feel like he's a goofball."

"Hahaha, Ke'er's description is actually quite accurate."

Chen Yu recalled that Jiang Yang had always liked to make jokes in a serious manner since he was a child.
