Xia Yinian was too lazy to pay him any mind, she glanced at him and then withdrew her gaze.
"Say it, or else..."
"Do... it?" Gu Lingqian interrupted with a smile.
Do it? Xia Yinian frowned, as if she had just thought of sothing.
She turned her head and narrowed her eyes, eting Gu Lingqian’s gaze, then suddenly withdrew her foot and kicked at him forcefully.
Gu Lingqian’s reflexes were quick as he grabbed her legs, removed himself from the bed, and then let go.
"Nian Nian girl, what are you thinking? I was just saying I wanted to do sothing else, like having a chat," he said, raising his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth lifted into a smirk.
Xia Yinian huffed and looked down at her book, unwilling to deal with him any further.
She had known Brother Ling for so ti now, and she could tell he had sothing to say tonight.
"The Alchemy Competition is less than a month away from Mid-Autumn Festival, how are your preparations?" Gu Lingqian sat down on the sofa he’d been on earlier.
Getting close to her was sothing he thought about every day, but now was not the ti.
A joke has its limits; otherwise, his girl would overthink things again.
"Master’s books are almost all read by now, just missing practical training. He also said that many operations can’t be learned by just reading books."
"All of them read?" If he rembered correctly, the books Qin Mufeng brought last ti filled an entire box.
"All read, so, I definitely have to go to school tomorrow," Xia Yinian responded softly.
It seed as if the incident just now was truly just a joke.
In Xia Yinian’s heart, her Brother Ling seed composed, but could also be quite mischievous at tis.
As long as this mischievousness was within her expectations, she didn’t mind.
"I’ve already organized the projects from the past years’ competitions; I will give them to you when I take you to school tomorrow."
"Really?" Xia Yinian looked up, eyes eting Gu Lingqian’s gaze, slightly excited.
Maybe, this task was simple for Brother Ling, but it would have taken her a lot of ti to do it herself.
Moreover, so insider information is generally not accessible to most people.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Gu Lingqian said indifferently.
Xia Yinian got down from the bed, went over, and took his hand, trying to make him stand up from the sofa.
"Brother Ling would never lie to Nian Nian, Brother Ling is the best."
The girl mouthing sweet nothings was, however, pushing the man outwards: "It’s late, you should go back to sleep now."
"Why? I just ca, doing this makes it seem like there’s a man hidden in the room," Gu Lingqian really wanted to knock on her head, she didn’t want to let him stay in her room even for a while.
If it was any normal night, it would be fine, but tonight, she was about to go to sleep, even her underwear... had been taken off.
Now, if it weren’t for the bath towel covering her chest, probably everything would be visible.
If she doesn’t send him away at a ti like this, then when? Doesn’t she feel vulnerable in this empty space?
It wasn’t until they reached the door of the room that Xia Yinian stopped.
She let go of Gu Lingqian, then yawned with her small hand in front of her mouth.
"Brother Ling, good night, I’m going to sleep."
She couldn’t just push him out the door; if the wrong people saw it, those villains would have a chance to stir up trouble.
Xia Yinian lifted her eyelids to et Gu Lingqian’s gaze, her eyes drooping as if she could barely keep them open.
Knowing that Brother Ling was not so easily fooled, she glanced at him once more before hanging her head low.
Yet, despite not appearing that tired, she really was sleepy.
