Han Yijia kept a cold expression and continued typing away. After a few seconds, she suddenly seemed to realize something. "Who... Who wants to stay at your place"
"You know this person," Hao Ren said with a smile, noticing her slightly nervous demeanor.
Han Yijia's eyes moved slightly. "Zhao Yanzi"
"No." Hao Ren shook his head. "Lu L琳琳?" Han Yijia's eyes turned again as she thought and asked another name.
"No," Hao Ren shook his head again.
"Boring!" Han Yijia muttered, turning back to the test questions in her book.
This reaction was unexpected by Hao Ren. He moved closer to her, almost sharing a computer with her. "It's true! If I'm lying, I'm a dog!"
Han Yijia was skeptical but turned to him again. "Could it be Su Han"
"No," Hao Ren shook his head.
"I don't want to deal with you." Han Yijia pushed Hao Ren slightly, saying, "Sit back down."
Her slight push was ineffective against Hao Ren. Her soft hand pushing on his shoulder felt more like a massage.
Hao Ren's stool was now practically fused with hers, and the warmth between them could be sensed through their clothes. If a teacher saw this, they would surely assume they were flirting in class!
"Close at hand," Hao Ren said after being pushed several times by her.
Han Yijia was still confused and looked around him before seeing herself reflected on the screen. "Alright then. I won't tease you anymore. From now on, every weekend you'll stay at my place." Hao Ren told her seriously.
"What" Han Yijia blinked in surprise. "Who decided this"
"Your dad and mine," Hao Ren answered.
Han Yijia stared with wide eyes, about to ask more, but Hao Ren had already dragged his chair back to his own computer station.
The teacher happened to walk by at that moment. Han Yijia saw the approaching teacher and bit her lip, concentrating on doing the test questions.
Ding-dong,
the bell rang for class dismissal.
Han Yijia packed up her books first and approached Hao Ren immediately. "What did you mean just now"
Hao Ren also put away his things, deliberately walking towards the computer room exit. Han Yijia followed closely behind him with her textbook under her arm.
She grabbed Hao Ren's arm. "What do you mean exactly
"Wow, you two are really inseparable!" Marina said with a smile as she walked out of the server room.
Xie Yujia let go of Hao Ren's arm and shot Marina a small glare before following Hao Ren downstairs quickly.
"You guys have only talked for so long, yet you're already this close," Marina said with感慨in her voice as she watched their backs.
Outside the building, Xie Yujia asked Hao Ren, "What did my dad and your dad talk about"
The expression on her face was slightly anxious, like a cautious little bird.
"Why didn't you tell me that your uncle and aunt went to America" Hao Ren asked her.
“Telling you wouldn’t have made any difference,” Xie Yujia replied softly. She lowered her head and looked at the tips of her shoes.
A few strands of hair from her ponytail brushed across her cheeks, covering her eyes.
"Living alone shouldn't be too hard," Hao Ren said to her with a hint of complaint in his voice.
“I can manage on my own,” Xie Yujia’s voice grew fainter.
“You’ll stay at my place during weekends and live at school the rest of the time.” Hao Ren spoke in an assertive tone without room for argument.
When Hao Ren first learned that Xie Yujia would be staying with him, he was a bit surprised, but after careful thought, it seemed unfair for her to suffer through such difficult circumstances.
"I won't trouble your family. I'll just stay at my uncle and aunt's house," Xie Yujia said as she lifted her head.
Her words were cut short by Hao Ren’s stern gaze.
"You’ll be staying with me on weekends," Hao Ren repeated in an even firmer tone.
“Okay,” Xie Yujia somehow found herself agreeing.
The hard shell around her heart suddenly cracked.
“Do you want to go to the library” Hao Ren asked with bright eyes.
“Sure,” Xie Yujia gave him a slightly formal but warm smile.
Even this smile felt like a gentle breeze.
"I left my bike at the library."
Their shoulders brushed as they walked side by side toward the giant white building shaped like an open book—the university's library.
Time flew, and it was already evening when Hao Ren and Xie Yujia came out of the library to take a bus to Zhao Zhenzi’s house.
Xie Yujia felt as if clouds had been swept away, revealing a bright sky; all the gloom from before was gone. She would be living with Hao Ren's family, even just on weekends, which filled her with both nervousness and anticipation.
The nervousness came from worrying about making mistakes, while the anticipation stemmed from having a new family to embrace her—I’ve heard that Hao Zhonghua and his wife are world-renowned scientists, elegant and well-mannered; Hao Ren's grandma is kind and especially fond of me.”
About Hao Ren, he appears to be simple-minded on the surface, but once you get to know him, you'll find yourself drawn to him.
Xie Yujia turned to look at Hao Ren beside her and noticed that Hao Ren was staring blankly out of the bus window at the city's night scenery.
Actually, if one observes closely, Hao Ren has a profound side as well,
this thought flashed through Xie Yujia’s mind, causing her cheeks to flush slightly.
"The female celebrity on that billboard outside—do you think she looks quite like me" Hao Ren turned around and asked Xie Yujia.
Hmm... Xie Yujia nearly choked on her breath at this question.
Just then, the bus arrived at the station, and both Hao Ren and Xie Yujia quickly got off.
As was customary in the past two days, Zhao Hongyu had prepared a sumptuous dinner. She made extra dishes especially for Xie Yujia's sake.
Zhao Guang wore loose fur pajamas, looking like a successful businessman.
The TV was broadcasting news about Zhao Guang’s donation to Hao Zhonghua’s charity foundation. Zhao Yanzi sat on the sofa playing with the latest iPhone 4 that Zhao Guang had bought for her.
"You're here! Let's eat first!" Upon seeing Hao Ren and Xie Yujia enter, Zhao Hongyu greeted them politely.
She wore dazzling earrings and exuded a graceful aura.
"Thank you, Mrs. Zhao." Xie Yujia took her seat at the dining table.
Zhao Guang and Zhao Yanzi also came in to eat one after another; Hao Ren seated himself next to Zhao Yanzi.
"Today marks the last day of teaching you your basic cultivation techniques," Xie Yujia said as she picked up her chopsticks and started eating the delicious dishes. "After today, I won’t be teaching them anymore."
“Ah” Zhao Yanzi was slightly surprised. When Xie Yujia had first taught her these basics three days ago, she had mentioned that they could be learned in just a few days, but she hadn’t expected Xie Yujia to stop teaching her after only three days.
"Then thank you very much, Yujia," Zhao Hongyu smiled and said immediately.
Zhao Hongyu knew that Zhao Yanzi had some experience in cultivation before. This set of basic human cultivator techniques was simply something to be imparted; it wasn’t particularly difficult.
"It's nothing." Xie Yujia softly replied, her heart a bit softened by their kindness towards her. No matter what, Zhao Hongyu had been very good to her.
Zhao Guang and Hao Ren remained silent, each having their own thoughts.
Living in an affluent household that was also the royal family within the realm of cultivation, it was something she could never compare with. Xie Yujia looked around at the subtle yet luxurious decorations inside the house and understood this clearly.
"Starting from this weekend, you'll be staying at my place," Hao Ren broke the peace during the meal and said.
Zhao Yanzi and Zhao Hongyu both suddenly lifted their faces to look at Hao Ren. Xie Yujia was also a bit surprised as she looked at Hao Ren.
As long as Zhao Guang remained calm, continuing to sip his wine unhurriedly...
Hao Ren continued eating. Zhao Hongyu pondered for a moment before lowering her head and slicing the beef.
Zhao Yanzǐ glared at Hao Ren, then suddenly glanced at Xie Yujia. She gnashed her teeth and saw that everyone didn’t react. So she scooped a large mouthful of rice and put it in her mouth.
After dinner, Xie Yujia carefully guided Zhao Yanzǐ's cultivation, teaching her the last few details. Xie Yujia had a feeling that war was about to break out, but even so, she didn’t want to affect Zhao Yanzǐ’s practice because any deviation in practice could lead to major problems.
The two-hour technique transmission session ended, and Hao Ren tutored Zhao Yanzǐ for an hour in math geometry.
While drawing geometric figures, Zhao Yanzǐ "accidentally" poked Hao Ren's hand with her pencil several times. She was fuming inside but didn’t know where this anger came from.
After the tutoring session ended, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia returned to the first floor and bid farewell to Zhao Hongyu who was quietly reading in the living room.
Zhao Hongyu hurriedly got up and personally saw them out of the door. She then politely said, "I’m really grateful for what Rainy has done this time."
"It’s nothing," Xie Yujia nodded softly.
"Since it's so late, Mr. Ren must protect Rainy well." Zhao Hongyu told Hao Ren to take care of him.
"Sure," Hao Ren nodded. Since Zhao Hongyu didn’t offer a ride in her car, she still had a grudge.
However, Hao Ren wouldn't let Xie Yujia live alone in that old community because of the attitude Zhao Yanzǐ’s family took towards them.
Xiao Bai was still by甄Tongzi’s side. Hao Ren and Xie Yujia could only take a bus, bumping along to reach near Xie Yujia's old residential area.
The night was quiet, and the shadows of Hao Ren and Xie Yujia on the uneven ground were hazy.
This overly tranquil place actually made one uneasy.
"Should I take that Facedefying Pill" asked Xie Yujia suddenly. She had kept the pill in her pocket, unable to bring herself to consume it.
“You can take it when you look your most beautiful,” Hao Ren said.
“Is this my most beautiful time” Xie Yujia stopped walking abruptly.
The moonlight shone brightly, and the pale gray Xie Yujia looked like a goddess of moonlight.
"Hmm," Hao Ren couldn't help nodding. Zhao Yanzǐ's beauty and Xie Yujia’s were not comparable. He didn’t know how to describe it, but he knew that they occupied different regions in his heart.
Xie Yujia suddenly put the Facedefying Pill back into her pocket and walked towards a nearby shantytown.
Under the shadows of tangled wires, Xie Yujia felt her way to the old woman’s dilapidated house.
"Granny! Granny!" Xie Yujia knocked on the wooden door.
She planned to move into Hao Ren's place and might not have time to visit often. She also thought she should inform the old lady about this matter.
The dilapidated house remained silent for a long time, while someone from the neighboring household opened their door with a creaky sound.
"She moved out! Her son came today in his car and took her along with two boxes of belongings," said the middle-aged woman who had just moved out. She looked at Xie Yujia and Hao Ren.
