Chu Xiaorou glared at Qin Yu for a while, then turned and left with red eyes.

Her companion glanced at Qin Yu and quickly followed Chu Xiaorou out.

Qin Yu turned back and continued eating his noodles as if nothing had happened, even taking the noodles that Xia Lan had left over.

Sudan and Zhao Pandi blinked after watching the whole thing.

On the way back to school, Su Dan and Zhao Pandi quickened their pace so that Xia Lan and Qin Yu could spend more time together.

"Looks like you've been on quite a few blind dates with women in the past?"

Xia Lan listened to the whole thing and realized that Qin Yu used to be so popular.

“They were all assigned by my superiors; I have no interest in them.”

Qin Yu assured Xia Lan.

Xia Lan knew, of course, that if there were anything between them, he would have married them long ago.

"If you hadn't gone back to the village, you probably would have married another woman by now, right?"

Xia Lan thought that Qin Yu must have enjoyed it a lot when he was in the army, otherwise his superiors would not have arranged blind dates for him. It's a pity that he was demobilized.

There are no "ifs".

Qin Yu glanced at Xia Lan, her long eyelashes fluttering gently with her eyes, which shone with light.

There was no doubt, no anger in his eyes, only a mocking tone...

With trust.

"I won't get married if I can't wait for you."

Qin Yu chuckled.

"Wait a minute, didn't you say you were going to keep me here as your wife?"

Xia Lan raised an eyebrow, recalling that Qin Yu hadn't said that to her back then. He had clearly said that he needed a wife and wanted her to stay and be his wife!

Qin Yu paused, and for the first time, he didn't dare to look Xia Lan in the eye, turning his head away.

"Are you hiding something from me? You'd better tell me clearly."

Xia Lan narrowed her eyes, sensing that he was hiding something from her.

Qin Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he coughed awkwardly.

"I thought you would never be interested in me and would definitely choose to leave..."

Qin Yu coughed and answered carefully.

So you're just using me as a stepping stone?

Xia Lan narrowed her eyes angrily.

"It's not like I'm just going through the motions. Before I met you, I was just thinking about getting by like this. You know what I do. If outsiders found out, I would face a lot of danger!"

Qin Yu took Xia Lan's hand and said earnestly.

"You know my situation. If I married someone who has no opinions of her own, I would definitely be tricked into revealing information by those aunties."

"Meeting you, seeing you leave those aunties speechless, your strength, your courage, made it hard for me to let you go..."

Xia Lan looked into Qin Yu's eyes; his gaze was unwavering, his pupils reflecting her face.

"So, you want me to get our marriage certificate right away?"

Xia Lan raised an eyebrow, suddenly wondering if someone really had designs on her, or if Qin Yu was just saying it to scare her.

"..."

Qin Yu touched his nose.

"There are indeed people who have their eyes on you."

Qin Yu's words were clearly evasive, and Xia Lan snorted, seeing through Qin Yu's 'lie'.

She thought it was a lie he told her in order to marry her.

Qin Yu patted Xia Lan's head, but not with any lingering affection. Instead, he wanted to force the issue and get a wife for free.

He escorted Xia Lan to the entrance of Beijing University.

Qin Yu looked at Xia Lan.

"I'll go home tomorrow and bring all my things over."

"good."

Xia Lan nodded obediently.

The students who returned to school all spotted Qin Yu, and many slowed their pace when they saw him and Xia Lan at the entrance.

With so many people around, Qin Yu couldn't kiss Xia Lan directly, so he just ruffled her hair.

"Go in!"

Xia Lan took two steps inside, then suddenly turned around and threw herself into Qin Yu's arms, hugging him tightly before quickly stepping away.

Before anyone could react, Xia Lan had already run into the school.

Qin Yu watched her hurriedly fleeing figure, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.

cute.

I want to kiss you.

After Xia Lan could no longer be seen, Qin Yu turned and left.

Back at Du Wenqing's courtyard house, Old Master Du waved to Qin Yu, who had returned alone.

"I have to go, there might be danger on the way..."

Du Wenqing looked at Qin Yu, wanting him to stay. Qin Yu listened to Du Wenqing's words and looked into his eyes.

"I'll go with you!"

"Qin Yu, this journey is not peaceful... You still have that girl Lanlan..."

Du Wenqing wanted to persuade him to stay, as he didn't want him to get hurt.

Xia Lan will hate him to death.

"No, I promised, and I'm definitely going to follow you!"

Qin Yu frowned, insisting on following Du Wenqing.

"That girl..."

Du Wenqing looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu shook his head.

“I just told her that I might have to go home.”

Seeing that Qin Yu insisted, Du Wenqing stopped refusing.

He knew Qin Yu's skills, and with him by his side, he felt at ease.

Xia Lan met up with Sudan and Zhao Pandi, and the three returned to their dormitory. Wu Shishi paused when she saw the smile on Xia Lan's face.

"Lanlan, what good news has happened to you?"

Before her vacation, she noticed that Xia Lan didn't look well, but when she returned, Xia Lan was clearly different.

"Her~"

Sudan and Zhao Pandi exchanged a glance, then pulled Wu Shishi aside and told her about Qin Yu.

Xia Lan looked at them with a smile, and Wu Shishi walked over with a teasing expression.

"No wonder I was in such a good mood, it turns out I saw my sweetheart!"

"I'm in a very good mood."
