Chapter 148 Obsessed
Xia Linxing got out of the car tremblingly and followed Su Mingyu into the villa.
"You're back..."
Unlike what Xia Linxing had expected, the layout of the villa was surprisingly cozy. The warm yellow light illuminated the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa reading a magazine.
That should be the head of the Xia family, Xia Hongyi.
He heard the voice and raised his head in the direction of Xia Linxing. After seeing Xia Linxing, his eyes lit up slightly. After looking Xia Linxing up and down, he showed a satisfied expression: "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back..."
Xia Hongyi put down the magazine in his hand and looked at Xia Linxing with a slightly reproachful look in his eyes: "You ran out alone without even saying hello this time, making your mother worry for a long time..."
He glanced at Xia Linxing. To this child whom their family had spoiled since childhood, he still couldn't say anything harsh. "Don't do this next time, Xingxing..."
Xia Linxing nodded obediently.
"Well, it's getting late..."
Su Mingyu came up and interrupted their conversation softly, "Xingxing has been outside for so long, he must be tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow..."
Here it comes... Xia Linxing tensed his body.
His tough battle is coming!
Xia Linxing's room...where is it?!
Why is this villa so huge? Not only does he not know which room belongs to the original body, he doesn't even know which floor it is on!
How embarrassing!
At this time, Su Mingyu turned her head to look at Xia Linxing, with a hint of worry in her tone: "Because Xingxing, you don't like others entering your room without your consent, and your mother can't contact you, so the aunt at home didn't clean your room during the time you were away from home..."
"It'll probably be very late if we start cleaning now... So, tonight..." Her tone was tentative, "Xingxing, please stay in the guest room for one night, okay?"
Good, good, good! This is great!
Xia Linxing breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly.
Su Mingyu was a little surprised that Xia Linxing was so easy to talk to now. However, when she thought about how Xia Linxing had lived alone for so long in a completely unfamiliar environment, especially in a talent show that was like a small entertainment industry, it was normal for her to have changed... even grown.
Moreover, from the moment she took Xia Linxing in till now, Xia Linxing seemed to be changing for the better, so Su Mingyu smiled gently: "That's good... Aunt Chen, take Xingxing to the cleaned guest room..."
"Hey, here he comes!" A kind-looking old lady came out of the kitchen while wiping her hands. When she saw Xia Linxing, she smiled kindly: "Young Master Xingxing is back... Come, Aunt Chen will take you there..."
Xia Linxing followed obediently.
The Xia family is indeed a wealthy family. Even though it is just an ordinary guest room, Xia Linxing feels as if he has come to a five-star hotel, or a suite at that.
He thanked Chen Ma politely, then collapsed onto the bed with a thud. The soft, springy mattress bounced him up and down.
Phew...it feels so good...
Xia Linxing narrowed her eyes happily.
After sleeping on the dormitory bed for so many days, Xia Linxing suddenly slept on this high-end mattress. He felt so comfortable that he was about to fly.
He rolled over happily on the bed, and the cell phone in his pocket fell out. He rolled twice on the bed and stopped moving.
Oh... that was Xia Linxing's phone that he had taken back from the show crew. He just turned it on and put it back in his pocket without even having time to look at it.
Xia Linxing stretched out his arm and fished out the phone. When the phone was picked up and the screen woke up, Xia Linxing saw that the lit screen was filled with unread messages.
The top message shows the sender’s note as “Brother Tinglan”.
Xia Linxing: "emmmmmmm..."
He was about to lock the screen to avoid seeing anything when suddenly the message box on the screen moved and a new message from "Brother Tinglan" popped up: "Have you arrived home yet?"
He hadn't seen the previous message, so he didn't reply; now the message was sent right in front of him, Xia Linxing thought about it and decided that it would be better to reply.
He unlocked his phone with his fingerprint and opened the chat box.
Before Xia Linxing opened the dialog box, the first thing that caught his eye was Xie Tinglan's high-definition photo in the chat background picture.
Xia Linxing was caught off guard when she saw Xie Tinglan's big face: "!"
He almost couldn't breathe, and the coughing sound almost attracted the attention of Chen Ma outside.
Xia Linxing held his breath, first replied to Xie Tinglan that he had arrived home, then quickly exited the chat interface, found the settings and restored the chat background to the default.
After doing all this, Xia Linxing finally breathed a sigh of relief: Now he couldn't see Xie Tinglan's face anymore.
He exited the chat app, and then—unexpectedly saw Xie Tinglan's face again!
This time, Xie Tinglan appeared as the desktop wallpaper. Xia Linxing suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Could this phone belonging to "Xia Linxing" be Xie Tinglan's "pain phone"?!
In order to verify his idea, Xia Linxing stretched out his finger with trembling hands and tremblingly... opened the photo album on his mobile phone.
Xia Linxing's eyes slowly widened.
Oh my god... he actually guessed it right...
The photo albums on her phone were filled with Xie Tinglan, Xie Tinglan, Xie Tinglan! All sorts of Xie Tinglan! There were retouched photos of Xie Tinglan that had been publicly released online, and there were also photos of her life that were obviously candid shots.
There are all kinds of Xie Tinglan, but there is not even a selfie of "Xia Linxing" himself!
If someone who didn't know the owner of the phone picked it up, they might think Xie Tinglan was the owner just by looking at the photo album.
Xia Linxing looked through the photos in his phone album in amazement, and exclaimed in amazement.
Thanks to the fact that "Xia Linxing" bought a mobile phone with large enough memory, Xia Linxing was even able to see photos of Xie Tinglan during his student days in the album.
Some were taken by "Xia Linxing" himself, some were very blurry, some only captured the side face, and some were obviously downloaded from the school forum.
Xia Linxing looked at a photo that had clearly been downloaded from a forum, still bearing the forum's watermark. The photo should have been of Xie Tinglan during his college years, taken in the university library. In the center of the picture, Xie Tinglan was resting on a table.
From the photo, Xia Linxing had no way of telling whether Xie Tinglan was asleep or just resting with his eyes closed. He could only see the sunlight shining through the window, casting soft light and shadow on Xie Tinglan's well-defined profile.
Xia Linxing's fingertips paused on the photo, and followed his gaze, carefully tracing from his thick eyelashes to his straight nose and then to his tightly pursed lips.
etc!
Xia Linxing shuddered and came back to his senses.
What was he doing just now?!
It was as if the most secret corner of his heart was suddenly exposed to the sun, and a surge of scorching heat swept over him, instantly burning from Xia Linxing's ears to his neck.
