As night fell on the Jiangda campus, Lin Xiao pulled You Wanjun by the hand and ran as fast as he could.
You Wanjun had never experienced such a thrilling and exciting feeling in real life.
She took off her scarf and clutched it in her hand.
She felt she could run another ten kilometers.
Of course, this is all in her imagination.
In fact, she was already out of breath and a little tired as soon as the two of them arrived at Lin Xiao's car.
"Get in the car." Lin Xiao secretly rejoiced that the mobile app supported unlocking and starting functions, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get in the car, as he didn't have the car keys on him.
I didn't expect to need the car today.
Lin Xiao quickly started the Maserati, turned the wheels, and drove out towards the North Gate.
Lin Xiao glanced behind him through the endoscope and saw that the swarming students had finally given up the chase.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ms. You, what about your car?"
You Wanjun relaxed, but upon hearing this, her delicate brows furrowed slightly. "How can you be like this? When things are good, you call me Junjun, but now you call me Miss You?"
"I'll handle the car issue myself, and I wouldn't dare trouble you, Mr. Lin!"
You Wanjun's sarcastic remarks amused Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao paused for a moment, then said, "Here's what we'll do. Give me the car keys, and I'll drive it out for you tomorrow and call a driver to take it back to you."
You Wanjun nodded, her expression softening slightly, her thumbnail unconsciously scratching her index fingernail.
Lin Xiao took the person directly back to Lanting Yayuan.
As soon as she entered the room, You Wanjun nestled into Lin Xiao's broad and sturdy arms like a little kangaroo looking for its mother.
Lin Xiao was taken aback.
I wanted to push her away.
But You Wanjun hugged her even tighter.
Her voice was hoarse, tinged with grievance and pitifulness: "Don't move. Do you know how much effort I went through to see you?"
"I tried making a PPT for the first time for my speech tonight. I barely ate any food at lunch. The school leaders invited me to dinner tonight, but it was all socializing, so I didn't eat much hot food either."
"I'm so hungry and tired when I see you right now, let me hug you."
"I miss you so much, Lin Xiao."
Lin Xiao's hand, which was pushing her, froze in mid-air. A hint of helplessness flashed in his dark eyes. He could only pat her shoulder and back gently, as if coaxing a child.
After a moment, Lin Xiao said, "Shall I make you a bowl of noodles? What ingredients are in the refrigerator?"
"The fridge is fully stocked. I prepared this especially for you. I was worried you'd want to eat hot pot, so I prepared a little bit of everything. All the ingredients are very fresh." You Wanjun's hoarse voice regained a bit of vitality.
Lin Xiao chuckled and said, "So, would you like noodles or hot pot? I've already had dinner."
You Wanjun looked a little dejected. She took a breath, thought for a moment, and said, "Then just give me half a bowl of noodles. Do you want some?"
"If you want to eat it, I can make more."
"I can't eat too much, I'm afraid of gaining weight."
Lin Xiao thought for a moment, and realized that after running around like that, especially in winter, he was indeed a bit hungry.
So he made a big bowl of noodles with pickled cowpeas, wood ear mushrooms, green vegetables and minced meat. The soup was topped with a layer of fragrant and spicy red oil and scallions, and the green vegetables were so fresh and green that they looked very appetizing.
The two sat at the dining table and shared their food using small bowls.
You Wanjun ate with great satisfaction, exclaiming, "This wood ear mushroom is so delicious!"
"Cut it into strips like this, and it will be very flavorful and chewy."
"I really love the noodles you make!"
Lin Xiao looked at the small but charming mole on You Wanjun's delicate nose and felt a slight flutter in his heart.
Yu Wanjun is fair-skinned and beautiful, and very self-disciplined. Although she is very famous, she also has a lovely side.
Her eyes, in particular, were as lively and innocent as a fawn's.
Meng Fanxue once praised her eyes for being beautiful and unique, possessing both the depth of peach blossom eyes and the allure of fox eyes. It must be said that Meng Fanxue's observation of people is truly meticulous.
His mind raced, but he said with an air of maturity, "When you're hungry, anything tastes good."
He might be willing to eat his cooking for free once or twice, but not long-term.
Who wants to cook all the time?
Who wouldn't want to enjoy themselves without doing any work?
Seeing Lin Xiao's calm and collected demeanor, You Wanjun's admiration for him grew even stronger. She no longer dared to order him around to do chores. Changing her spoiled and pampered nature, she quickly got up, picked up a bowl, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
She could have put them in the dishwasher, but there were already many clean dishes in the dishwasher. There were only three dishes, so it wasn't worth moving them around.
She could wait until the housekeeper comes tomorrow to do the laundry, but at this moment she felt a light and energetic feeling that she could do anything and was willing to do any housework.
Perhaps because Lin Xiao cooked noodles and she ate them with him, she wanted to wash them herself to finish the job.
In short, that's what she thought, and that's what she did.
After washing the dishes, she came to the living room and saw Lin Xiao sitting on the sofa in a daze, which startled her slightly.
Lin Xiao heard the sound and looked over.
Their eyes met.
You Wanjun smiled and asked softly, "Lin Xiao, are you tired?"
Lin Xiao smiled faintly, "It's probably because I'm full, and all the blood and energy have rushed to my stomach, so my brain isn't working very well."
You Wanjun sat down next to him, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "You really don't want to do it anymore?"
Lin Xiao nodded, "Mm!"
"Then what should I do?" You Wanjun asked with a worried expression.
Lin Xiao glanced at her and said calmly, "You have your own career, you earn a lot of money every day, and you live a better life than 90% of people in this society."
"I am nothing more than a substitute for you to remember Feng Qi. No matter how real a substitute is, it is still a fake in the end."
"There will be a period of withdrawal symptoms, but as long as you are determined and immerse yourself in real life, you will soon forget about me."
Hearing Lin Xiao's cold words, You Wanjun felt a surge of nameless anger.
Yes, that was true in the past, but things are very different now.
Can't he see it?
She fell for him.
He must be deliberately punishing her for using him as a substitute for Feng Qi!
But she took a breath, forcing herself to calm down.
Things are different now. If she angers Lin Xiao and he leaves, it will be even more difficult for her to see him again.
Lin Xiao glanced at her and knew she was upset. Perhaps his way of absolving himself completely was unfair to her.
But if we give her fairness, who will give her freedom?
There is no such thing as fairness in this world!
Whoever surrenders their heart to others to control loses their freedom.
Whether something is fair or not depends on whether the other party is willing to give it to you, and how much fairness they can offer.
His aunt's death served as a constant reminder to Lin Xiao that he too would die.
We should enjoy life while we can.
Otherwise, when you get old and die, you will regret the things you didn't do when you were young and the life you didn't experience.
After a moment of silence, Lin Xiao reached out and put his arm around You Wanjun, pressing her against his shoulder so she could lean on him.
You Wanjun's heart skipped a beat. She pressed her ear to Lin Xiao's chest, listening to his strong, pounding heartbeat, and felt a happiness and sweetness she had never experienced before.
She reached out and wrapped her arms around Lin Xiao's strong waist, greedily inhaling the scent of cedar on his body, and closed her eyes.
