Ye Li thought Lu Xiaoxiao was already asleep, so she opened the door very quietly.
As I entered, I was met with Lu Xiaoxiao's gaze.
With headphones around his neck and a blank stare, he looked like he'd been studying all day.
Ye Li recalled Fu Yanci's teasing remark, "Xiaoxiao, you're already a top student, why are you still working so hard before the exam? Aren't you giving others a chance to overtake you?"
Lu Xiaoxiao stretched with a smile, "Being kind to others is being cruel to myself. I'm still counting on my ranking to get scholarships!"
Scholarships at Imperial University require outstanding academic performance and conduct, and Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Yunkai have been recipients of first-class scholarships every year.
That scholarship could almost cover their tuition for the next year.
Ye Li smiled and waved the dessert she had brought back, "Top student, your lovingly prepared late-night snack has arrived. Would you like to enjoy it now?"
"Thank you so much, the incredibly cute and super thoughtful Pear!"
Lu Xiaoxiao smiled and got up, then went to the balcony to heat up two cups of milk.
Have some snacks.
Drink milk.
Start another round of review with full energy.
It was almost one o'clock when the lights were turned off.
At seven o'clock sharp, both of their alarm clocks went off simultaneously.
With identical messy hair, they greeted each other, quickly got up to wash, and then sat back to back at their desks.
The only sound in the large room was the rustling of pages turning.
For lunch, the two of them each had a self-heating meal.
When her phone rang, Ye Li glanced back at Lu Xiaoxiao, then took her phone and left the dormitory.
"Xiao Li..."
On the other end of the phone, Aunt Lan said gently, "My wife and I have returned home."
Ye Li huffed, "Didn't we agree that I would be discharged from the hospital and go home after my exams on Wednesday?"
"Don't you know what kind of person your mother is? When she wants to do something, she can't wait."
Aunt Lan said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of her. You can focus on your exam!"
"good!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Li went back to her dorm to pack her bag and took a taxi straight to the Ye family villa.
The Ye family lives in a villa area in the east of the city.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the villa area. As soon as Ye Li got out of the car, her eyes started to well up with tears.
Upon stepping through the gate, Ye Li's steps slowly came to a halt.
The day the villa was sold, the living room was a complete mess.
The valuable murals on the walls, the sandalwood desk in the study, and the imported crystal chandelier that was more than two meters high on the ceiling... everything of value was taken away.
At first glance, it looked as if it had just been ransacked by robbers.
At this moment, the villa is neat and clean, and everything is in its proper place.
Even the faint fruity scent floating in the air is the same as before.
The thought that all of this was arranged by Fu Yanci filled Ye Li with a bittersweet feeling.
"You child..."
Li Xueqing's voice brought Ye Li back to her senses, "I told you Aunt Lan shouldn't have told you that. If you had known, you would have definitely come back."
Ye Li looked at me with a reproachful expression, "If Aunt Lan hadn't told me, I would have been even angrier!"
"Okay, okay...it's all Mom's fault."
Li Xueqing smiled and led Ye Li forward, saying with some curiosity, "We just passed by your Aunt Zhou's house. Her villa is empty. It looks like she moved out. It's strange, your Aunt Zhou didn't tell me."
Ye Li's heart skipped a beat.
Then Li Xueqing looked up at her and said, "Ali, make a call and invite He Chen over for dinner. Also, ask him what's going on."
"I..." No.
Before Ye Li could even voice her refusal, a car turned off outside the door.
The doorbell rang.
Aunt Lan stepped forward to open the door, her voice filled with surprise, "Master Fu..."
? ? ?
Ye Li turned around and saw Fu Yanci striding towards her.
Behind him, Xiang Yang carried large and small bags.
At first glance, they didn't look like they were there to visit a patient.
It's more like a new son-in-law visiting his mother-in-law for the first time.
"The wording is getting tired..."
Li Xueqing released Ye Li's hand and went to meet her.
