Chapter 2 He is Xie Tinglan
Xia Linxing, who felt that he had become extremely ferocious, pushed open the door and the first person he saw was an extremely tall and straight man.
He looked to be about 1.9 meters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist and long legs. Even though he was wrapped tightly in clothes, one could still see the muscle lines beneath the fabric, which were not overly bulging.
Xia Linxing felt a little emotional.
Wow, no wonder the other party is the protagonist...
Look at his height, his head is almost level with the railing of the upper bunk in the dormitory, and the long shadow he casts can almost cover Xia Linxing, who is only 175cm tall.
Even though he was just standing in the open space in the middle of the dormitory and doing nothing, he still felt a sense of oppression when he turned around.
Xia Linxing always remembered the earnest teachings of System 999. The second he saw the man, he immediately raised his chin and acted arrogant. However, his height and this action just allowed him to see the man's face clearly.
There is no doubt that it is a face favored by the Creator:
He had high brow bones, deep eye sockets, a nose as straight as a sculpture, and a jawline that was even clearer than Xia Linxing's life trajectory in his previous life; but his thin lips revealed a coldness that kept strangers away.
At this moment, he was looking down at Xia Linxing and slowly opened his mouth, "What's wrong with your body——"
Keyword trigger!
It’s what System 999 said before about taking care of your health!
Good student Xia Linxing seized the opportunity and spoke immediately, interrupting the other party and also interrupting what System 999 was about to say.
"What does it have to do with you?"
Perhaps because of the sudden interruption, Xia Linxing felt that his ferocity had been somewhat reduced, so he tried hard to act with disdain and contempt.
However, due to the man's height, Xia Linxing tried for a long time but couldn't even glance at him. He could only tiptoe secretly and make up for his unfriendly attitude with words, "Who the hell are you? You are... not worthy of me, not worthy of you..."
Xia Linxing's voice became smaller and smaller, and more and more unclear under the man's stern gaze.
"999..." Xia Linxing's eyes were filled with tears, "I, I seem to have messed up..." The man was so fierce that she could hardly continue to say his harsh words.
"...No, kid, it's not your fault." Xia Linxing didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the voice of System 999 sounded a little vicissitudes of life.
“Because this person is not Shen Sibai at all.”
It turns out that he is not the protagonist... Then this person should just be another trainee. Xia Linxing breathed a sigh of relief.
System 999 did not require him to maintain the same state in front of other trainees as when facing the protagonist.
He probably hasn't messed up yet.
"He is Xie Tinglan." System 999 said dryly.
"boom."
Xia Linxing felt a surge of heat rushing up his cheeks. His face turned completely red in an instant, and his ears also felt hot.
Oh my God!
Xia Linxing unconsciously twisted the corner of her shirt with her fingers, her eyelashes drooping low, not daring to look at Xie Tinglan's expression at the moment.
Did he just… tell the protagonist, whom he was supposed to be in love with, to mind his business? He, he even scolded her for “not being worthy of minding his business” when she was caring about him…
Oh my god!!!
"999..." The villain in Xia Linxing's heart asked System 999 with tears in his eyes: "Can we start over again?" Or, or if there is any prop that can turn back time and space!
"There is no such thing, dear." System 999 was also desperate.
It was normal for Xia Linxing not to know that the plot had gotten the wrong person, but he had forgotten it somehow - because the Xia family and the Xie family were old friends, after Xia Linxing fell down the stairs, Xie Tinglan would have been asked by his family to visit Xia Linxing for both emotional and logical reasons.
How did this plot, which was only briefly mentioned in the plot, appear here?! It was so sudden that Xia Linxing didn't even have time to tell Xie Tinglan's identity.
It now wants Xia Linxing to tell Xie Tinglan that he injured his brain after falling down the stairs. I wonder if it’s too late?
Xie Tinglan... was also a little surprised.
He lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the boy in front of him who lowered his head:
If Xia Linxing, who had stood on tiptoe and uttered harsh words before, was still a small crab with bared teeth and claws, then now he was like a small ostrich that wanted to bury its head in the ground.
The other person seemed to realize what stupid thing he had just done and lowered his head tightly. From Xie Tinglan's perspective, he could only see his long eyelashes casting a trembling shadow.
He seemed to want to hide his blushing face, but forgot that this would expose his neck, which was also pink with shyness, to Xie Tinglan's eyes; the tips of his ears that were exposed between his hair were also red as blood, and shone with a lustrous light like agate.
Like... being bullied badly.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Xie Tinglan came to his senses.
Xia Linxing was bullied? Xie Tinglan sneered in his heart.
He is not a member of the Xia family, and his filter for Xia Linxing is ten meters thick; ever since Xia Linxing was seven or eight years old and would bully other playmates who were close to him behind his back, he knew what kind of person this boy who was always well-behaved and obedient in front of him was.
Only the Xia family still treats Xia Linxing like a naive child who knows nothing.
To be honest, if it weren't for the pressure from his family and the favor of the Xia family, he never thought of coming to see Xia Linxing from the beginning to the end.
He just felt bored.
To him, Xia Linxing was like a piece of dog-skin plaster that could not be shaken off once it stuck to him; when he was a child, the clingy Xia Linxing could still be considered cute, but after growing up, Xia Linxing was left with only paranoia, obsession, and stubbornness.
No matter how coldly he responded or how he scolded her, Xia Linxing would always come up to him as if nothing had happened, wearing out his patience with the familiarity between them that no longer existed.
In order to avoid Xia Linxing, he even reduced the number of times he went back to Xie's house. However, he didn't expect Xia Linxing to go this far - he actually became a trainee to participate in the talent show where he was a mentor.
Therefore, the current appearance is probably also acted out by the other party.
Xie Tinglan had to admit that Xia Linxing's current behavior was a little smarter than before.
But that's all.
"Since you're okay..." Xie Tinglan took out his phone and casually took a photo of Xia Linxing, then sent it to the Xie family group chat, considering it as completing his visit. "Then I won't bother you anymore."
He didn't even bother to greet Xia Linxing. He just said, "You should be more careful in the future" and walked past Xia Linxing who was lowering her head, and left the dormitory without looking back.
It was not until the other person's footsteps disappeared in the corridor outside that Xia Linxing raised his head cautiously.
"Huh..." He patted his chest lightly and exhaled: "I'm scared to death..." Xie Tinglan is worthy of being the protagonist, his aura is so strong! He didn't dare to speak in front of him!
Unfortunately, "999, did I mess this up?"
"It's okay, dear!" System 999 quickly comforted its child.
Its host just obediently did what it taught him, what did he do wrong!
"We only need to target the protagonist, and don't worry about Xie Tinglan!"
In its eyes, Xie Tinglan was merely the trigger for Xia Linxing to target the protagonist in the plot, merely the cause of the situation. In the current plot, the trigger already existed, so its good cub didn't need to deliberately get close to Xie Tinglan to maintain his character.
"Okay." Since System 999 said there was no problem, Xia Linxing was obviously relieved. He looked around curiously at the dormitory where he would be living for the next few months.
The dormitory was a six-person room. Six iron-frame beds, each with a desk above and a table below, were placed in pairs, each with a name tag on the edge. However, Xia Linxing didn't need to look at the tags to know which bed was his—the others had clearly been made up. The previous "Xia Linxing" had been busy clinging to Xie Tinglan, picking on Chen Sibai, and then fell down the stairs into the infirmary, so only his bed was still in its completely "initial" state.
This is the dormitory!
Xia Linxing turned her head and became happier and happier as she looked. She even stood on tiptoe uncontrollably and excitedly.
In his previous life, he even went to school sporadically (needing to be hospitalized from time to time), let alone living on campus.
This is his first time living in a dormitory!

"999, what should I do now?" Xia Linxing's eyes sparkled.
System 999 said in a loving tone, "Then, dear, make the bed first..." Clothes and other things can be sorted out slowly later.
"Okay!" Xia Linxing struggled to put the huge suitcase that was almost half his height on the ground. He reached into the suitcase and rummaged through it for a long time before finally finding a three-piece bedding set that didn't look like sheets or quilt covers at all.
"999..." Xia Linxing's face wrinkled up, and she picked up one of the quilt covers with her fingers in disdain, "This pattern..."
"So, so embarrassing..."
"Yes, yes..." System 999 also got stuck for the first time.
After all, it’s not written in the original book that the pattern printed on “Xia Linxing’s” three-piece bedding set is Xie Tinglan’s support picture!
