The divorce comeback system arrived right after I was born.

When Lin Wanwan pushed open the door, she was still humming the song "Not Yet Lovers" that she had just sung.

The TV in the living room was showing the evening news. Lin Shuxian, the father, was holding a teacup. Although his eyes were fixed on the screen, he had already taken a quick look at his daughter's smug and triumphant expression.

"Mom and Dad, I'm home." Lin Wanwan changed into her slippers, her voice crisp and clear.

Lin Shuxian blew on the tea leaves floating on the water, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you with Chen Zhi?"

Lin Wanwan, who was bending down to straighten her shoes, paused, and her back stiffened noticeably.

She turned around, blinking her big eyes, trying to fool everyone: "Huh? Dad, how did you know? Who spread rumors about you?"

"Spreading rumors?" Lin Shuxian put down his teacup, sighed, and pointed to the mirror in the entryway. "Look at yourself. Your mouth is practically stretched to the back of your ears. It's only because of Chen Zhi. If it were anyone else, I'd break their legs."

Lin Wanwan subconsciously touched her cheek; it was indeed a little hot.

Since she'd been seen through, she decided to stop pretending. She chuckled, leaned over, hugged Lin Shuxian's arm, and shook it: "Dad, I've already graduated, and the college entrance exam is over. This doesn't count as puppy love, does it?"

"Whether it counts as puppy love or not depends on when you first got the idea," Lin Shuxian snorted, but there wasn't much blame in her tone. "If I really objected, our family would have moved out long ago. Do you think I stayed in this old neighborhood when our family's financial situation improved?"

Lin Wanwan was taken aback, then her eyes lit up: "Dad! So you already..."

"Alright, alright." Lin Shuxian pulled his arm away in disgust. "Girls grow up and leave home. Go back to your room and stop loitering around me. It's annoying."

"Thank you, Dad! You're the best! You're the most open-minded dad in the world!"

Lin Wanwan gave her father a "good guy" card, then skipped and hopped into her bedroom.

Once the door is closed, the world is quiet.

Lin Wanwan took two running steps and pounced onto the soft, large bed.

The mattress bounced twice.

She hugged the huge, long pillow, buried her face in it, and then started rolling around on the bed like crazy.

Roll three times to the left, then three times to the right.

She was writhing in bed like a maggot.

Finally, after releasing most of her excitement, she lay on the bed with her two slender white legs dangling in the air, swinging back and forth.

Take out your phone and open WeChat.

Chen Zhi's WeChat account is pinned to the top.

The note reads: "[Bad guy]".

Lin Wanwan bit her lower lip and tapped her finger on the screen.

Delete "bad guy" and type "husband".

Upon seeing those two words, her face instantly turned bright red.

"No, no, it's too embarrassing..." Lin Wanwan buried her face in the pillow and sobbed twice.

I looked up again and deleted it.

Change it to "Dear".

I stared at it for two seconds, and it still felt a bit cheesy.

Revise it again.

【Boy friend】.

"This is too formal, not special at all." Lin Wanwan frowned her pretty brows.

After changing it back and forth, I finally paused and changed the nickname back to "Bad Guy".

This one looks better.

Although he's a villain, he's a villain who belongs only to her.

Lin Wanwan held her phone, her fingertip hovering over the input box. After hesitating for a long time, she typed four words:

【I miss you so much.】

send.

Then came the long wait.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Lin Wanwan stared intently at the screen, her eyes never leaving the screen.

Thirty seconds passed.

There has been no reply yet.

Lin Wanwan's legs stopped shaking, and she pouted.

"What are you doing... taking a shower? Or chatting with someone?"

"Could he be chatting with Pei Ningxue?"

A girl in love always has such a whimsical way of thinking.

At that moment, the WeChat notification sound finally rang.

Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she quickly unlocked the screen.

However, the message that popped up wasn't about Chen Zhi, but about someone named Lin Zixuan.

That was her cousin with dyed yellow hair.

[Lin Zixuan: Sis, shouldn't we settle the remaining payment?]

[Lin Zixuan: To cooperate with you in this play, I got a hard beating from my brother-in-law; my wrist is still bruised.]

[Lin Zixuan: Sis, you don't want your husband to know that the blond guy who flirted with you last night was someone you hired to force him to confess his feelings, right?]

Lin Wanwan's expression changed instantly.

She gave a cold laugh and her fingers flew across the screen.

Transfer: 666 yuan.

send.

Then click on the other person's profile picture, the three dots in the upper right corner, and add them to your blacklist.

After destroying the evidence, Lin Wanwan gave a soft snort and tossed her phone back onto the bed.

If Chen Zhi knew that he had even arranged this "hero saves the damsel in distress" scenario just to force him to confess his feelings, who knows how much he would laugh at him.

This secret must remain a closely guarded secret.

After dealing with the "dirty business," Lin Wanwan reverted to being that anxious and insecure little girl again.

She picked up her phone again and stared at the chat box with Chen Zhi.

Why haven't you replied yet?

Degrees and seconds are like years.

Just as she was about to bombard the screen with another set of emojis, the screen finally displayed "The other party is typing...".

[You jerk: We've only been apart for less than twenty minutes, and you're already missing me before we even get to your doorstep?]

Upon seeing this, Lin Wanwan's worried expression vanished instantly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

[Wanwan: I just miss you. I want to be with you every single minute of every day.]

[Wanwan: A minute apart feels like three autumns, but we've been apart for sixty autumns!]

The message had just been sent when Chen Zhi called.

Lin Wanwan answered immediately.

"Feed~"

During the phone call, the two talked about everything from their time by the river to who stole whose lollipop when they were kids, and then about what kind of house they would rent off-campus when they went to college.

"We want to get a dog and a cat." Lin Wanwan lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling and dreaming about the future. "The dog will be a Golden Retriever, and the cat will be a Ragdoll."

"Okay, whatever you say. You'll be in charge of cleaning up the poop." Chen Zhi's lazy voice came through the receiver.

"Chen Zhi!"

"Okay, okay, I'll shovel it, I'll shovel it, alright?"

"That's more like it... What would be a good name for our future child? If it's a girl, how about Chen Wanwan?"

"Lin Wanwan, we've only been officially a couple for less than an hour. Aren't you thinking a little too far ahead?"

"Not far! Not far at all!"

The two chatted until their phones got hot and the batteries were running low.

"It's getting late, go to sleep early." Chen Zhi checked the time; it was almost midnight.

"Ah... you're going to sleep so soon?" Lin Wanwan turned over in bed, her voice full of reluctance.

"Okay, I'm hanging up now. See you tomorrow."

"Then...give me a kiss."

"Trojan horse".

After hanging up the phone, the room became quiet again.

Lin Wanwan pressed her phone against her chest, listening to her own heart pounding.

No.

Can't sleep at all.

After hanging up the phone, I missed him even more. It was a feeling of agonizing longing, like a cat scratching at my heart.

She sat up abruptly, ran barefoot to the window, and pulled back a corner of the curtains.

The light next door is still on.

That was Chen Zhi's room.

Both houses are located in old-style residential areas with narrow spacing between buildings and old-fashioned open balconies. The balconies of the two houses are separated only by a gap of less than one meter.

A bold idea began to grow wildly in my mind.

Lin Wanwan bit her lip, picked up her phone, and sent a message.

[Wanwan: Are Uncle and Auntie asleep?]

A few seconds later, a reply came.

[Bad Guy: They're all asleep, what's wrong?]

I'm going to sleep...

Lin Wanwan's lips curled into a sly smile.

She tucked her phone into her pocket, tiptoed to the balcony door, and gently pulled it open.

The summer night breeze is a bit cool, and it feels very comfortable on my skin.

She glanced at the distance between the two balconies, then at the loose-fitting cotton pajamas she was wearing.

"It shouldn't... have regressed, right?"

Lin Wanwan took a deep breath, braced herself against the railing with one hand, and nimbly climbed onto the cement platform at the edge of the balcony.

Under the moonlight, the girl's figure was light and graceful.

……

After finishing their long phone conversation, Chen Zhigang felt parched.

He went to the living room, poured himself a glass of cold water, and drank it while reminiscing about how clingy the girl had been on the phone earlier.

This relationship is definitely getting a bit too intense.

Just as he tilted his head back to drink water, a muffled "thump" suddenly came from the direction of the balcony.

Immediately following was a suppressed, delicate cry.

"Ouch……"

Chen Zhi almost dropped the cup in his hand.

A thief broke in?

Are there still thieves who dare to break into the third floor these days?

He put down his cup, grabbed a broom from behind the door, and cautiously walked toward the balcony.

"Who?"

Chen Zhi suddenly pulled open the screen door to the balcony.

With the help of the light coming from the living room, he could see the scene before him clearly.

Lin Wanwan was kneeling on the floor tiles of his balcony, one hand covering her knee.

When she saw Chen Zhi come out, she looked up at him pitifully.

Those big eyes were brimming with tears.

The broom in Chen Zhi's hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

He was completely stunned.

"Lin Wanwan?"

Chen Zhi strode over and squatted down in front of her, both amused and annoyed. "What are you doing? Why not use the proper main entrance instead of becoming a thief?"

"Ouch..." Lin Wanwan sniffed and showed him her scraped knee. "I didn't land properly and bumped into your flowerpot."

Chen Zhi glanced at it and saw that it was just a minor scrape, not bleeding, but it would probably bruise.

He sighed helplessly and flicked her forehead: "Serves you right. What were you doing climbing over the balcony in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

Lin Wanwan didn't dodge and let him play.

She stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Chen Zhi's neck, hanging herself on him, and said matter-of-factly:

I miss you.

"Saying I miss you on the phone is useless; it only counts when I see you."

The girl's body carried the fresh scent of shower gel, mixed with the coolness of the summer night, which went straight into Chen Zhi's nose.

Chen Zhi felt his heart skip a beat.

He slipped one hand under her knees and the other around her back, lifting her up from the ground in a horizontal embrace.

"Don't flip through it again."

Chen Zhi carried her into the house, his tone fierce but his movements gentle.

"Why?" Lin Wanwan snuggled against him.

Chen Zhi placed her on the sofa in the living room and turned to get the first-aid kit.

"Because it's too dangerous."

He returned with iodine swabs, squatted down in front of Lin Wanwan, and looked at her intently. "Now that you're here, do you think you can leave tonight?"
