72: Brother, Liu Qingqin misses you.

Cao Lang heard Li Meng's soft voice, and his gaze was drawn toward her.

The car purchase was complete, but this private butler showed no intention of leaving. Holding her hands in front of her lower abdomen, she maintained a smile, looking forward to Cao Lang saying something else.

Or perhaps, asking her to stay... for something to happen.

“Alright, you can go back to your work now. Notify me when the car arrives.”

Cao Lang's words shattered her inner expectations. Li Meng felt a sense of disappointment, but she still kept a smile on her face, bowed politely, and withdrew.

“I must be crazy. My child is almost in high school, and yet I’m still thinking about such things.”

Li Meng had been a school beauty back in university, and her husband was a one-in-a-hundred IT elite. However, after years of settling down, the couple had long since lost the passion of young lovers.

Li Meng pushed her small cart while waiting for the elevator. She browsed some specialty stores on her phone, thinking about buying some fun outfits to reminisce about that First Love feeling with her husband and relive the passion of their youth.

“Sister Meng, what good stuff are you looking at so intently?”

The elevator opened, and a newly arrived young waitress greeted Li Meng.

“Oh, oh, it's nothing.”

Li Meng quickly closed her phone, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with a guilty conscience, and pushed the cart into the elevator in a flustered pace... Dormitory 506.

The weather was hot, and the small fan on the desk was whirring. Liu Qingqin, wearing a pink tight T-shirt, had fallen asleep face-down on the desk. Her twin peaks hung naturally, and crystal-clear saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth onto her arms, which were like tender lotus roots, making her small face wet.

Tingting was eating spicy strips while browsing TikTok, while Xiaoya, seeing the scene, snickered as she took "embarrassing photos" of Liu Qingqin.

Chen Yongqiu was nearby applying mascara and humming a little tune. Her slender, shapely legs were crossed, and her small feet with red-painted nails bobbed up and down, looking very playful.

Today was Sunday, and the four of them had agreed to go out for a meal. Tingting and Xiaoya were already prepared, waiting for Chen Yongqiu to finish her makeup before they could set off.

Chen Yongqiu had been staying in the dormitory these past few days, going to classes and coming back normally without revealing a single thing about Cao Lang.

In contrast, after returning from her date with Cao Lang, Liu Qingqin would talk to everyone every day about how talented Cao Lang was, holding her phone and smiling foolishly while listening to the song Cao Lang wrote for her.

Everyone was happy for Liu Qingqin. Tingting and Xiaoya had both received huge transfers, and together with Chen Yongqiu, the three of them united to pamper this newly-in-love little loli.

“Alright, makeup is done. Let's head out.”

Chen Yongqiu slipped her fair feet into a pair of transparent sandals, put away her cosmetics, stood up, and said to Tingting and Xiaoya:

“Wake up Liu Qingqin, this little lazy bug. If we go to that newly opened Japanese restaurant too late, there won't be any seats left.”

Hearing this, Tingting used her hair to tickle Liu Qingqin's ear, while Xiaoya circled around from behind and used the classic move, the breast-grabbing hand.

“Mm~ what are you doing~”

Liu Qingqin woke up in a daze, looking completely reluctant.

“We're going to eat Japanese food. If we're late, there won't be any seats.”

“Oh, oh, right, Japanese food.”

Hearing that they were going to eat, Liu Qingqin used a tissue to wipe the saliva off her arm, becoming a bit more alert.

But after being happy for only a few minutes, her small head drooped again. She sat on her small stool dejectedly, staring blankly at the empty green bubble interface.

Seeing this, Chen Yongqiu let out a sigh.

This little girl was missing Cao Lang again.

She was still kept in the dark, not knowing that Chen Yongqiu and Cao Lang already had an actual relationship.

Strictly speaking, she was the latecomer, and her status could only be below Chen Yongqiu.

But this matter could only be confessed slowly. If it were said all at once, given Liu Qingqin's personality, she definitely wouldn't be able to accept it.

“Liu Qingqin, are you thinking about your Boyfriend again?”

Chen Yongqiu walked over, held Liu Qingqin's soft shoulders, and asked softly.

“Yeah... why can other people see each other every day when they're in a relationship, but my Boyfriend isn't even willing to reply to my messages?”

Liu Qingqin kept pulling down the interface to refresh the green bubble, always thinking it was a poor network connection that prevented her from receiving Cao Lang's messages.

“Your Boyfriend is quite busy. Men prioritize their careers.”

Chen Yongqiu took a stool and sat next to Liu Qingqin, starting her daily routine of consolation.

But today, Liu Qingqin was exceptionally quiet. She didn't complain anymore, just stared blankly at the rows of green message bubbles she had sent out, while there was only an occasional white message in return.

Liu Qingqin had also looked forward to the two of them going to Disney together, climbing Mount Tai together, going clubbing together, and doing many, many things together.

But now, it was hard for her even to get a few replies from Cao Lang, let alone meeting up to go out and play.

At the thought of this, she felt so miserable that she couldn't eat.

“You guys go eat. I have no appetite.”

Liu Qingqin rested her chin on her small hands, her soul-shattered appearance making one's heart ache.

If the male students of the entire Modan University saw this scene, their hearts would surely break into pieces!

Just which scumbag could make Liu Qingqin so sad!!

Tingting and Xiaoya didn't feel good seeing this either. They hurried over to comfort her; after all, they also bore a great responsibility for Liu Qingqin's current situation.

But everyone knew in their hearts that this was just the "love story" of a top supporter and a Streamer, it was just that no one was willing to puncture the truth.

Chen Yongqiu couldn't bear to see Liu Qingqin so sad, so she helplessly opened her phone and sent a green bubble message to Cao Lang.

“Brother, Liu Qingqin misses you. If you don't coax her soon, I won't have any way to help.”

When Cao Lang saw it, he thought about it and realized it had indeed been a week since he had favored these roommates.

So he replied to Chen Yongqiu: “I'll go to your school this afternoon to pick you two up to go out and play.”

When Chen Yongqiu saw the message, her heart relaxed a bit, but after looking closely at Cao Lang's message, she felt something was wrong.

“Brother, are you saying you're picking up both of us?! I'm going too?”

“Would you not be jealous if I only picked up Liu Qingqin? (Smirk)”

“Hmph, I would be a little unbalanced, but... Liu Qingqin doesn't know about our relationship yet. Are we going to have a Shura Field now? I'm scared! (Panic).”

“Then just tell Liu Qingqin that your Boyfriend wants to treat everyone to a meal, and that'll do.”

“That's a great idea! As expected of Brother!! Love you!!”

Chen Yongqiu couldn't help but smile at the screen. The smile in her eyes was like the first ray of sunlight piercing through the morning mist in spring, breathtakingly beautiful, leaving Tingting and Xiaoya dazed.

The two of them had rarely seen Chen Yongqiu smile so happily.

“Yongqiu, I haven't seen you smile like this in a long time. What good thing has happened?”

“It's nothing, it's nothing.”

Chen Yongqiu put away her phone, hugged Liu Qingqin's delicate body, and said, “Don't be sad anymore. What if your Boyfriend comes to pick you up to go out and play today?”

“How is that possible? He's so busy...”

“Everything is possible.”

Thinking about what was going to happen tonight, Chen Yongqiu secretly looked forward to it.
