Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 76 He had seen through everything long ago!

The on-campus accommodation procedures were completed smoothly, and I received my dormitory key.

Shi Sui turned the key back to the classroom; it was time for get out of class to end.

"You skipped class." Chi Yan asked as soon as he saw her, "Where did you go?"

"I told you, I went to submit the documents." Shi Sui gently stroked the texture of the key with her fingertips, clearly admiring it.

"What is this key you have?"

"I'm living at school now!" Shi Sui's eyes lit up with excitement as she waved the key in front of Chi Yan. "This is my dorm key. I'll move out of your house after school."

"!!!" Chi Yan reacted a beat too late, "Move away?"

Shouldn't it be like in romance novels, where she cooks and cleans for him in exchange for a place to stay, and then they spend every day together?

"Yes!" Shi Sui said happily. "I'm living at school now! Come on, congratulate me!"

No one should congratulate you.

Chi Yan felt a pang of frustration and said, "The school's facilities aren't as good as my home's."

“Mmm.” Shi Sui agreed, then added, “But the school is very convenient, so it’s good enough that I have a place to live.”

“If you live in a dormitory, you will have roommates. Since you are new here, you may be ostracized.”

"I don't have any roommates," Shi Sui said happily. "Director Li told me that someone died in my dorm room, and I live alone!"

"Someone died there!" Chi Yan was so shocked he almost jumped up from his chair.

"What's there to be afraid of? There are no ghosts in this world."

"I'm not afraid." Chi Yan's expression returned to normal, and he said firmly, "Your dormitory is unlucky, don't stay there."

“I’m not afraid of ghosts, nor am I superstitious,” Shi Sui said firmly. “Being able to move out of the Jiang family’s house would be the most auspicious thing.”

Chi Yan wanted to argue a few more points, but when the bell rang, the class fell silent.

Shi Sui glanced at him discreetly. The boy was holding an upside-down textbook, not saying a word, and exuding an air of depression.

She figured it was probably because of her moving dorms that he was upset.

After all, someone had died in that dormitory, so most people avoided it.

I've heard that wealthy people tend to be more superstitious.

Anyway, her deskmate was doing it for her own good. If she had other options, Shi Sui wouldn't want to live in a dormitory where someone had died.

She thought for a moment, tore a piece of paper from her notebook, wrote something on it, and handed it over.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you about living on campus beforehand, but I really want to. How about we go to the aquarium this weekend?

Chi Yan was still thinking about how to persuade Shi Sui not to live at school when he felt his arm being poked.

The girl's finger darted back, leaving only a note behind.

He picked up the note and glanced at its contents.

A date invitation.

My gloomy mood vanished instantly, and I couldn't help but smile.

"Alright, I'll reluctantly agree to let you live at school." He leaned closer and whispered in the girl's ear, "Come with me after school this afternoon, I'll help you move your things."

The warm breath tickled her earlobe, and Shi Sui subconsciously turned her head, her lips accidentally brushing against his cheek.

The soft, subtle touch is amplified infinitely.

!!!

Shi Sui was so startled that she immediately turned her face away, stammering, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

I had a feeling that I was doomed and was about to get beaten up.

Chi Yan touched the spot where her lips had brushed against him, his mind replaying the scene endlessly. His ears turned bright red, and a blush spread across his cheeks.

He gave a soft snort: "What a coward."

If you're bold enough, you can kiss him on the lips.

She's so easily embarrassed, and she even lied and said it wasn't intentional. He saw right through her!

Because of a little accident, Shi Sui was as quiet as a quail for the whole afternoon. She was attentive in class, and after class, Song Xinying came to see her kitten.

Anyway, I just don't really dare to face Chi Yan.

The afternoon passed just like that, and then the school bell rang.

"I'm leaving." Chi Yan tapped on her table.

Shi Sui immediately became alert. She glanced at Chi Yan quickly and secretly, and found that he looked normal, so he probably wasn't going to beat her up.

"I'll help you move your things. Didn't you say you were staying somewhere?" Chi Yan reminded her.

Shi Sui nodded, then shook her head vigorously: "No need, no need, I only have one suitcase, I can carry it to school myself."

"Hmm?" Chi Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go." Shi Sui immediately tugged at his sleeve, her heart filled with tears.

Oh my god, her deskmate is so nice! She accidentally kissed him, and instead of getting angry, he even helped her move her things.

Shi Sui didn't want people at school to see her and Chi Yan walking together again, so she suggested, "Yan Ze also lives in that neighborhood, why don't we go home together since it's on the way?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ze was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, let's go home together."

He's really envious of Chi Ge's limited edition Maybach.

Chi Yan glared at him.

Yan Ze sensibly clutched his stomach, feigning pain: "Ahhh, I can't take it anymore, my stomach suddenly hurts so much, I'm going to the toilet first, you guys go first."

He rushed to the toilet incredibly fast.

Shi Sui stared in disbelief and muttered, "This acting is so bad! If you don't want to go home together, just say so..."

She turned around and mischievously tattled, "Classmate, how dare he betray your kindness! He's so mean!"

Chi Yan gave a soft "hmm," finding it amusing.

Shi Sui followed behind Chi Yan with her head down, her eyes fixed on his heels.

Driver Xiao Huang greeted her respectfully at the door. When he saw Shi Sui again, his expression remained completely calm.

There's no way around it; that's just professional ethics.

As soon as he got in the car, Chi Yan said, "Let's go to SPK."

"Yes, Master."

"Are we going there to buy things?" Shi Sui asked softly.

She knew SPK; it was a shopping mall, and she had gone there to buy groceries last time.

"Didn't you need accommodation?"

"Ah."

"Blankets, pillows, bedding... shower gel, shampoo, toiletries... hair dryer, kettle... and that old, worn-out suitcase of yours, it's time for a new one..."

Chi Yan had researched the essentials list for accommodation in advance and could recite it by heart.

Shi Sui was stunned. How could he, who wasn't staying at the dormitory, know so much more than she, who was staying at the dormitory?

They even considered a night light; that's incredibly thoughtful.

She stared blankly at the boy who was still talking incessantly. His eyes were long under his long eyelashes, with a faint beauty mark at the corner of his eye. He had a straight nose and thin lips.

He had a very handsome and outstanding face that seemed to glow.

It is the radiance of fatherly love.

"My deskmate, you're so good to me." Shi Sui was deeply moved, her mind a little dazed. "I'll be very, very good to you too."

Chi Yan was stunned. He watched as her smile grew brighter and brighter, and the light in her eyes shone with love for him.

His face flushed instantly, and his heart began to pound.

Is he going to confess his feelings?

Then?

Chi Yan had been looking forward to it all the way, but nothing happened until they reached SPK Shopping Mall.
