As he passed the security booth at the entrance of the residential area, Shen Qian glanced at the dark room.
After their conversation that day, seeing that Shen Qian wasn't very enthusiastic, Old Hu didn't bother him anymore and left Jingcheng ahead of time, probably heading directly to the river.
He had no idea what the other party would think after learning that he had enrolled in Jiangzhong Military Academy. However, Shen Qian had already made up his mind that he would never meddle in trivial matters that were not his responsibility.
All he needs to do is take good care of Xiaoxuan.
"Sink forward!"
An excited figure jumped out from behind the streetlight and was about to pounce on Shen Qian.
"Holy crap... what are you doing here?"
Shen Qian pressed down on Huo Ling'er, whose face was full of excitement, with one hand.
“I told my aunt to let me know as soon as you get back, and then she did.”
Huo Ling'er chuckled.
Shen Qian was surprised that it was his own mother who betrayed him. He said helplessly, "Alright, I have something to do. Let's talk again tomorrow."
Huo Ling'er clung tightly to Shen Qian's waist, "You're lying! You're leaving the city again, aren't you? You've packed two huge boxes of clothes, there's definitely something wrong with that!"
Shen Qian's body stiffened, almost forgetting that he was still dragging two suitcases.
"That's none of your business, right? What kind of relationship do we have?" Shen Qian casually remarked, recalling the tricks he used to deal with Huo Ling'er.
But this time, the trick didn't work. Huo Ling'er not only didn't stammer, but instead held Shen Qian's hand even tighter.
"...Before I sink, I like you."
A soft yet firm murmur came from behind.
...Am I having a lot of romantic encounters lately?
Shen Qian muttered to himself, then sighed after a moment of silence, "Actually, I have a boyfriend."
"I know."
"Um?"
This time, it was Shen Qian's turn to be surprised.
"It's that senior student named Ding Yi, right? Actually, I've known for a long time, I've always known..."
Huo Ling'er gently rested her head on Shen Qian's back and whispered, "Auntie said I should stay away from you, but... but I can't. You're so annoying, Shen Qian, you're really so annoying. Why are you so... so dazzling? I can't even ignore you, sob sob sob..."
Hearing the girl sobbing, Shen Qian was speechless for a moment.
There are too many things in this world that have no answers.
Shen Qian couldn't answer Huo Ling'er's question; it was beyond his capabilities.
"Oh."
Just then, Shen Qian heard a soft, ambiguous laugh.
His face turned a little green. If he wasn't mistaken, it sounded like... Boss Gao's voice.
Teacher, let me explain!
Before sinking, he wanted to cry but had no tears.
