After Tang Wan ca out of the shower and saw the text ssage, she replied but didn’t get a response for a long ti, even until Jiang Jinsang finished his shower, she was still staring at her phone in a daze.
"Not going to sleep yet?"
"Waiting for a ssage from Xixi." Tang Wan propped her chin with her hand, feeling conflicted. She couldn’t figure out why Qi Zeyan went to "live together" with her for no reason, and felt embarrassed to call, afraid of interrupting their "good monts."
"Are you worried Zeyan might do sothing to her?"
"I’m afraid she might not be able to handle it and go wild."
Jiang Jinsang simply smiled, "They’re both adults, they know what they’re doing, hurry and rest, we still have classes tomorrow."
...
Even when Tang Wan fell asleep, she hadn’t received a reply.
As for Ruan ngxi, although Qi Zeyan had been to her place before, it felt very different now that he was here again.
"We don’t have disposable slippers at ho, these belong to my dad, please make do with them for now, and I’ll get you a glass of water." After leading him inside, Ruan ngxi quickly turned on the air conditioner and went to boil so hot water.
She could only be grateful that she had been staying at the hospital recently, so the house was still fairly tidy.
"It’s okay, I’m not thirsty." Qi Zeyan, standing on one leg, spotted many Xiaoxin figurines on a cabinet in the living room, with various costus. He picked one up to look at, "You still play with these?"
"They’re all from blind boxes."
"Blind boxes?" Qi Zeyan just wanted to see how realistic these figures could get, but accidentally twisted Xiaoxin’s head off. He coughed, reattached the head, and put it back in place.
"You’ll sleep in the guest room, my parents occasionally co over and stay." Ruan ngxi didn’t care what he was doing, busying herself with making the bed for him.
"Do your parents co over often?"
"They co once or twice occasionally, not often."
"That’s good." Qi Zeyan leaned against the door, watching her busy around. He wanted to help, but with one leg inconvenient, it was difficult for him, "Aren’t your family worried about you living alone in the big city?"
"They used to worry, that’s why they ca often, but not anymore."
Qi Zeyan hopped into the guest room, glanced at the photos on a cabinet, aside from portraits of Ruan ngxi, there were also photos of a middle-aged couple, or the three of them together, clearly her parents, with a warm family atmosphere.
"Oh, the bathroom and toilet are outside, and I don’t have your clothes here, only my dad’s." Ruan ngxi said, bringing out a set of pajamas for him.
"New ones." Qi Zeyan noted the tags still attached.
"I bought them for him, but he never ca, so he didn’t wear them, might be..." Ruan ngxi frowned, "a bit small."
"I don’t mind, but after I wear them, uncle might." Qi Zeyan wasn’t here for a vacation; as long as there was a place to sleep, he didn’t care for much else.
"I’ll show you around first..."
After showing him around, Ruan ngxi left him with the clothes in the bathroom. Despite having one leg inconvenient, it wasn’t a problem for him to shower.
"Here’s the shampoo, and the shower gel, use them as you like. If you need anything, just call ."
With the bathroom door closed, Qi Zeyan looked at the ss on the counter by the sink, raising an eyebrow. Just shower gel, there were three bottles, along with all sorts of body lotions and fragrances. He frowned, but after showering and changing into pajamas, he started frowning again.
The pajamas had that middle-aged uncle style, and most importantly...
How tall is her dad anyway? He ended up wearing the pants like they’re cropped trousers.
The overall appearance was sowhat comical.

When he ca out, Ruan ngxi wasn’t ho, and after sitting on the sofa waiting for a while, he went back to the room. Finding she was gone for too long, he intended to call her but discovered his phone had died and shut off automatically.
Since his arrival had been so sudden, he couldn’t even find a single compatible charging cable. Bored, he resorted to watching so TV in the living room.
When Ruan ngxi returned, unexpectedly, the first thing he said was:
"Where have you been?"
His tone had a hint of impatience, seemingly a bit angry.
"I just went out for a bit..." Ruan ngxi held two large bags in her hands, sowhat puzzled, why was he in a bad mood?
"You’re a girl, running out so late at night, why?"
Qi Zeyan had been waiting for over an hour, and by now it was nearing midnight.
"I went to the hospital to get your toiletries, then to the supermarket to buy a few things."
"You went to the hospital?" Qi Zeyan bit his lip, fully aware of how long it would take from her house to the hospital, "We could have just bought new toiletries, if sothing happened to you going out so late, who would be responsible?"
