Before the winter vacation started, Wang Celou assigned Chu Baqi a month's worth of study tasks so that he could avoid seeing her for a month.
After testing Chu Baqi several times, Wang Celou became even more certain that Chu Baqi did not truly suffer from amnesia.
Chubachi's tastes have changed, some of her usual little habits have disappeared, and she also occasionally utters things they can't understand, as if she has become a completely different person.
This reminded Wang Celou of himself. If he could be reincarnated, then others could too. Chu Baqi must no longer be the original Chu Baqi.
Wang Celou didn't want to have much contact with this stranger. Even though she hadn't done anything wrong, Wang Celou instinctively felt that she had some purpose in approaching him.
In this life, Wang Celou was just an ordinary student. Apart from being good at studying, he had nothing special about him. However, after meeting him, Chu Baqi started to pester him, which was very abnormal.
Wang Celou: Could it be that she knows me from the future? I was reincarnated a thousand years in the future, so it's possible that she also comes from the future.
Chu Baqi wasn't stupid; she could certainly sense Wang Celou's distance, but she assumed it was because of her joke that day.
"Ugh! I shouldn't have pretended to kiss him. I'm such an idiot! How could people in ancient times joke about something like that?" Chu Baqi was very annoyed. She decided to hold back for the time being, since there was still some time before the plot started.
After realizing she was intelligent, Chu Baqi decided to take the college entrance examination a year earlier than usual, together with Wang Celou.
This way, she can spend more time with Wang Celou, and she believes that with her watching over him, Wang Celou will definitely not be expelled from school.
As the Lunar New Year approached, Mei Si went out more and more frequently. At first, Wang Celou believed Mei Si's explanation that she was going out to have dinner with her teammates, but as the number of times increased, Wang Celou became suspicious.
It's almost Chinese New Year, who would be as addicted as Mei Si, going out to eat every day? Shouldn't everyone on holiday be home by now?
Wang Celou: Is Mei Si lying now?
Wang Celou didn't know what to feel. The straightforward Mei Si had actually learned to lie. Should he say that she had finally grown up?
"Sisi, where are you going?" Wang Celou asked, blocking the doorway when he saw Mei Si trying to run out early in the morning.
"Let's go eat something delicious with my teammates." Mei Si thought this reason worked, so she never thought of changing it.
"...Who are you going with today?" Wang Celou looked at Mei Si, who seemed completely oblivious, with a black line on his forehead. Mei Si always used this same excuse when she went out, and it always made him feel awkward.
"Wu Chunmei".
"She... has already gone out with you six times. Isn't she going home for the Chinese New Year?"
"Oh, go home, leave tomorrow."
“You said last time that she would leave in a couple of days, but several couple of days have passed since then,” Wang Celou said helplessly, rubbing his forehead.
“I’m leaving tomorrow,” Mei Si said, rolling her eyes.
"So after she leaves, you won't go out anymore, right?"
"I still have to go out; I'll go get something good to eat by myself."
"What have you been doing all this time? Tell the truth!" Wang Celou decided he had to find out today. Mei Si was too honest and might be fooled.
"You'll find out during the Chinese New Year."
"If you don't tell me, you're not going out today."
Wang Celou turned around and closed the door, showing that Mei Si wouldn't be leaving unless she spoke.
"Then...then you can't tell anyone, not even your dad or your mom."
Mei Si said hesitantly.
"Hmm, I won't say."
"Actually, I bought a house here, and I want my grandma and the others to move in," Mei Si whispered as she approached Wang Ce Lou.
"...It's just the two of us at home, you don't need to speak so quietly. But what about the house? Did you get your bonus?"
"Mmm!"
"Why didn't you discuss buying a house with me?" Wang Celou was mentally prepared that Mei Si's money might have already been swindled away.
"You're so busy, I can't even see you," Mei Si said, pouting.
“…Where is that house?” Wang Celou took a deep breath, realizing that he had indeed neglected Mei Si during this period.
"It's nearby, also a courtyard house."
How much did you pay for this house?
"3... no, it's 20,000."
"Take me to see it."
Wang Celou felt a little relieved. 20,000 was a reasonable price, but he didn't know how big the house was.
Wang Celou felt that he had put his mind at ease too soon, because the place Mei Si led him to was getting closer and closer to the courtyard house where the family massacre had occurred a while ago.
"Here," Meiss said, unlocking the door with her key and pushing it open.
Wang Ce Lou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the courtyard where someone had died was two houses away. Thank goodness, it wasn't that house.
He walked into the courtyard and looked around. This house had several more rooms than his own, and the courtyard was also much larger.
"This house is a good deal, not a bad one." Wang Celou was very pleased, feeling a sense of pride that his own daughter had grown up.
"I've tidied everything up here, Grandma and the others can stay here when they come! I plan to use the smaller one as our wedding room, and we'll decorate it when we get married." Mei Si was overjoyed by the praise and almost wanted to skip away.
"Wait a minute! Wedding house? You bought two?"
"Yeah! I bought two apartments from that landlord. Let me tell you, he's a really nice guy; he gave me a 50% discount on that apartment!"
"Half price?" Wang Celou was immediately unsure. How could something be so cheap?
"Where is that house?" Wang Cailou suddenly had a bad feeling.
"It's very close, only two houses away." Mei Si left the yard and walked towards the gate that was sealed with tape.
