S University, classroom.
Qiao Muzhi, who always arrives at the classroom on time, arrived early today, which is unusual for him.
Qin Wan, who is usually punctual, was unusually late today.
"Report!"
"Come in."
The teacher was taking attendance. When she saw Qin Wan at the door, she paused and nodded slightly to her.
Qin Wan politely smiled and bowed to the teacher to express her gratitude, then quickly returned to her seat.
Qiao Muzhi stared at Qin Wan with surprise in his eyes, and asked casually, "Why are you so late?"
Hearing this, Qin Wan smiled gratefully at him, "Thank you for last night. I slept very well, so I overslept."
As she spoke, a faint look of annoyance appeared on Qin Wan's face, mixed with a hint of pleasure and satisfaction.
You could tell from her expression that she wasn't lying; she really did sleep soundly and contentedly last night.
Thinking of this, Qiao Muzhi's emotions seemed to be infected by hers, and his thin lips curled up almost imperceptibly, a faint sense of pleasure rising in his heart.
[Qiao Muzhi's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 66.]
The absurd thing that happened to him—a ten-hour live stream with the same "stranger"—was simply unbelievable, even shocking, to Qiao Muzhi.
He was still trying to process and recall why he had done such an outrageous thing.
But seeing how good the feedback from Qin Wan was, he reluctantly decided to do good deeds and treat it as a way to help others.
"Oh, right, this is the breakfast I brought for you."
A steaming hot breakfast was suddenly stuffed into the drawer, and Qiao Muzhi looked down and was stunned.
She overslept and was late, but she still remembered to buy him breakfast...
Qiao Muzhi looked at Qin Wan with a complicated expression.
"You..." Qiao Muzhi began with difficulty, "...were you late because you were buying breakfast?"
Qin Wan quickly shook her head, "I mainly overslept. I usually buy breakfast and eat it outside before going to school, but today... I almost didn't even have time to buy breakfast."
As she spoke, seemingly afraid that Qiao Muzhi would overthink things and take the blame upon himself, Qin Wan thought for a moment and continued to explain.
"I was really late not because I was buying breakfast."
"Besides, I wasn't late, I was just a little bit late."
Looking at the bright light in Qin Wan's clear eyes, Qiao Muzhi lowered his eyes to hide the complex emotions surging within them.
No wonder they got scammed.
Silly.
Thinking of this, Qiao Muzhi absentmindedly took out the soy milk from the drawer, took a sip, and then casually picked up a meat bun and took a bite.
The taste is not bad... Qiao Muzhi thought to himself.
Have you made up your mind?
As the teacher finished taking attendance and was handing out the test papers from the previous diagnostic exam, Qiao Muzhi suddenly spoke up.
"What?" Qin Wan was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
"Let's move," Qiao Muzhi reminded him.
"I……"
Qin Wan hesitated, and for a moment, Qiao Muzhi wondered if it was just his imagination, but he caught a glimpse of pain in Qin Wan's eyes.
"The reason," Qiao Muzhi said succinctly.
"Shenghua Garden is close to the school, which is convenient."
“Our other residences are quite far from the school…” Qin Wan explained.
Of course, the main reason is that the original owner was unwilling to return to the villa where Qin's parents lived.
The Qin family's other residences are either too far from S University or located in prime locations in the capital, where traffic jams are severe during rush hour.
Of course, the most important thing is that she doesn't want to move.
Moving won't solve the problem.
Moving was just a temporary escape from Mingchen's harassment.
For her, Mingchen was still useful.
Moreover, even if she moves, Mingchen still has ways to find her and force her out.
Mingchen still holds leverage over the original owner of this body...
Thinking of this, Qin Wan looked at Qiao Muzhi apologetically, "Thank you for last night, but the move might not be possible for the time being."
"and……"
At this point, Qin Wan paused, met Qiao Muzhi's questioning gaze, and gave a forced, embarrassed smile.
"I won't lie to you, even if I move, Mingchen will still find a way to find me."
Upon hearing Qin Wan's words, Qiao Muzhi frowned, his eyes filled with deep confusion.
"How could a small-time streamer like him have such great abilities?"
Meeting the puzzled look in Qiao Muzhi's eyes, Qin Wan pursed her red lips and remained silent.
Seeing this, Qiao Muzhi felt a strange sense of irritation.
[Qiao Muzhi's favorability decreased by 2, current favorability is 64.]
He didn't know what Qin Wan was afraid of.
They had no idea what Qin Wan was wary of Ming Chen about.
But Qin Wan's hesitant and vague manner made him very annoyed and frustrated.
OK!
She can move or not, it's up to her.
He was meddling in other people's business.
Qiao Muzhi put the half-eaten bun back into the bag and threw it back into the desk.
The same thing happened to the half-finished soy milk...
Faced with Qin Wan's puzzled look, Qiao Muzhi simply slumped onto the table, turning the back of his head towards her.
Qin Wan: "..."
Go ahead and be angry.
The angrier you get, the more you care.
The angrier you get, the more guilty you'll feel for me when the misunderstanding is cleared up.
Qiao Muzhi was angry, but Qin Wan was not worried at all. Instead, she smiled and couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
Because Qin Wan refused to move, Qiao Muzhi ignored her all day.
He didn't even wait for her after school in the evening...
Helpless, Qin Wan had no choice but to take a taxi home by herself.
Fortunately, thanks to Qiao Muzhi's lesson last night, Mingchen was seriously injured and should be unable to cause her any trouble in the next couple of days.
Late at night, Qin Wan sent Qiao Muzhi a "goodnight" message on WeChat and went to sleep.
On the other end of the phone, Qiao Muzhi stared intently at the words "Goodnight," his irritation growing stronger.
Oh.
She has a good attitude.
He acted as if nothing had happened.
He refused to believe that she couldn't tell he was unhappy!
They clearly saw through it, but still refused to move.
Mingchen is just a small-time streamer, what is there for her to be afraid of?
Was she afraid of Mingchen, or was she reluctant to part with him?
Qiao Muzhi became increasingly irritable and annoyed. He stared at his phone for a while, but Qin Wan did not send him a message to explain.
There was no indication that he would call or speak to him via voice chat...
Thinking of this, Qiao Muzhi no longer hesitated and directly turned off his phone and threw it on the bedside table.
He turned over and went back to sleep...
[Qiao Muzhi's favorability decreased by 2, current favorability is 62.]
Qin Wan had a good night's sleep...
Qiao Muzhi tossed and turned all night, unable to fall asleep for a long time...
When they met again at school the next day, Qin Wan paused when her gaze fell on the dark circles under Qiao Muzhi's eyes.
"You...didn't sleep well?" Qin Wan asked hesitantly.
Qiao Muzhi glanced at her, gave a cold "humph," and without answering or paying any attention to her, turned and entered the teaching building.
Qin Wan was left standing there helplessly, a faint look of bewilderment on her face.
In the classroom.
After Qin Wan sat down, she took out breakfast and stuffed it into Qiao Muzhi's desk, just like she always did...
Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached out her hand, it was tightly restrained by a long, slender hand with distinct knuckles.
Suddenly, her fair and slender wrist was grabbed. Qin Wan looked up in confusion and looked at Qiao Muzhi with puzzlement.
"What's wrong?"
