343: It's even.

Lin You turned his head and saw Qu Qinghuan's flushed face.

He couldn't help but feel a bit innocent.

"Sister Qinghuan, when I was walking toward the bathroom just now, you didn't call out to stop me either..."

"I... I forgot! I didn't think you would enter the bathroom, and besides, it would be one thing if you just came in, but why did you stare!"

Lin You felt slightly in the wrong and said sheepishly, "It's not like I haven't seen it before..."

Qu Qinghuan grew anxious, recalling the embarrassing situation from when she was sick. "Don't you dare say it!"

Lin You surrendered at light speed. "I won't say it, I won't say it. Sister Qinghuan, I was wrong. How about I kowtow to you..."

"Hmph!" Qu Qinghuan walked quickly past Lin You, immediately grabbed the two sets of underwear, hid them against her chest, hurried out of the bathroom, and packed them into a disposable storage bag.

The reason Qu Qinghuan had hung her underwear there before was just because... she was afraid it wouldn't be good to leave unwashed dirty clothes piled together.

Lin You: What? Dirty clothes? I don't think they're dirty at all~

After putting away her intimate apparel, Qu Qinghuan turned around and found Lin You already standing behind her. She let out an "Ah," startled, and glared at Lin You.

"Why do you walk without making any sound?!"

Lin You lowered his head, looked at the carpet on the floor first, then glanced at Qu Qinghuan, his expression looking very innocent.

Qu Qinghuan looked down, realized she had misunderstood Lin You, and pursed her lips. "Fine..."

Lin You blinked. "Then do I still need to kowtow?"

Qu Qinghuan hadn't actually been angry, just a little shy. After all, Lin You wasn't her boyfriend. If he were her boyfriend, then seeing it definitely wouldn't matter.

"No need."

The two packed up their things, moved the luggage to the room next door where Lin You had stayed previously, and then returned to Qu Qinghuan's room. Qu Qinghuan read a book, while Lin You smoothed out the quilt and lay down on Qu Qinghuan's bed, separated by the quilt.

Qu Qinghuan's eyelids fluttered, but since she was sitting in the only chair in the room, Lin You had nowhere else to sit.

She couldn't make him sit on the floor, could she?

Moreover, she didn't feel repulsed at all... by Lin You lying on the bed she had slept in.

Near eight o'clock, Qu Qinghuan finished packing the things she needed for the exam, and they went out together.

They could check out of the room as late as two o'clock, so Qu Qinghuan could still come back for a nap at noon.

After saying goodbye to Qu Qinghuan at the entrance of the exam site, Lin You turned and went to that stir-fried rice noodle shop, buying two more portions of the same breakfast.

The owner of the stir-fried rice noodle shop asked curiously, "Handsome, are my eyes playing tricks on me? Didn't you already buy some this morning?"

Lin You took the two breakfasts, looking puzzled. "Boss, you must be seeing things, right? Who buys breakfast twice for no reason?"

The boss looked stunned...

Lin You hadn't walked more than two steps before he heard the boss's wail behind him.

"It's over! Honey! I'm done for, I'm hallucinating!"

Lin You chuckled, walked away quickly, and hid his merits and fame.

A while later, Lin You arrived at the front desk of the five-star hotel, requested another key card, and returned to the room on tiptoe.

Outside, the sun had risen and it was bright, but the curtains were drawn in the room, making it dim. Lin You walked to the table to put down the breakfast, then walked to the bedside to take a look; Sister Yin was still fast asleep.

Last night, the two had battled until past two in the morning, and it was only past eight now; Sister Yin had slept for less than six hours, and unlike Lin You, she didn't have a trait to restore her physical state.

The room was very warm. Lin You leaned in, traced his fingers along Sister Yin's smooth back, stopped at her perky buttocks, and gave them a gentle pat.

Smack, smack, smack...

Sister Yin seemed to be sleeping very peacefully, with no subconscious guard against her surroundings. Feeling someone pat her butt, she only twisted her body. After Lin You increased the force a little, Sister Yin finally rolled over and looked at Lin You with squinted eyes.

"What are you doing..."

The sight from this turn—the snowy white mounds and the soft, sweet voice—almost made the fully recovered Lin You lose control again.

"Get up and eat."

"I want to sleep-sleep~"

"Go back to sleep after you're full. You need to eat breakfast on time, otherwise it's bad for your stomach."

"I don't want to..."

Smack...

"Then you need to hug me... Hug me and I'll get up."

Lin You's heart felt like it was soaking in honey water. He hadn't expected that even at her age, Sister Yin could be so sweet when acting spoiled.

Lin You reached down, hooked his arms under Sister Yin's knees, and picked up the stark-naked Sister Yin. Sister Yin subconsciously hooked her arms around Lin You's neck. After being picked up and becoming slightly more awake, Sister Yin immediately realized something was wrong.

She was naked...

Sister Yin immediately slapped Lin You's shoulder. "Quick! Let me go! Put me down! I need to get dressed!"

Lin You chuckled. "Too late."

A dozen minutes later, the fully dressed Sister Yin pulled open the curtains, and the light streamed in. Sister Yin was wearing a long-sleeved top that accentuated her figure, and she glanced back at Lin You, rolling her eyes.

"Eat!"

Lin You had a great appetite and digestion; after eating two dinners last night, he ate two breakfasts this morning.

After finishing breakfast, the two, fully dressed, snuggled in bed and chatted.

"Sister Yin, how long do you plan to stay in Nandu City?"

Sister Yin nuzzled into Lin You's arms. "I'm going back tonight!"

Lin You smiled and asked with a puzzled tone, "Aren't you planning to attend the anime convention on January 11th?"

"Uh... I see there's still plenty of time, so I might as well go back to Ancheng first and come back on January 10th."

Lin You didn't tease Sister Yin anymore, lowering his head to look at her upturned face.

"Stay for a while longer. I'll accompany you to the anime convention then."

Sister Yin was a bit shy. She knew all too well what would happen between them if she stayed.

"Then... alright. Huanhuan is also in Nandu City. She's taking the postgraduate entrance exam these two days, and it seems like she finishes today. Then I'll reluctantly stay in Nandu City for a while for Huanhuan's sake~"

"Huanhuan" was the nickname Sister Yin had for Qu Qinghuan.

Regarding the matter between the two teachers, Lin You had never spoken to the other teacher about it, and Lin You subconsciously felt a bit guilty.

Sister Qinghuan didn't tell Sister Yin that she lived in the same residential complex as him, did she?

"Teacher Qu? Is she in Nandu City?"

Sister Yin asked curiously, "Didn't Huanhuan tell you? She applied to your school for her postgraduate studies. During the summer break, she said she was coming to Nandu City to prepare for the exam. I thought that when she came to Nandu City, she would look for you students who are in Nandu City."

The six teachers of grade 12 class 7 all knew that Lin You, Li Qingbo, Xie Xingmeng, and Wang Xiaoyi were all in Nandu City.

"Ah? Is that so? Sister Yin, did you tell Teacher Qu about us?"

Sister Yin blushed, sat up, and gently pinched Lin You's face. "How could I... tell her that!"

She didn't tell her...

Then it's fine. Teacher Qu didn't tell you about her being my neighbor and friend either.

Even!
