Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

Jiang's mother glared at Jiang's father and rolled her eyes.

"Stop being so paranoid. Didn't our daughter explain everything clearly? She came alone by taxi."

Jiang's father touched his nose and didn't reply.

"Don't you even trust your own daughter?"

Jiang's mother urged him on, reaching out to give him a push from behind.

Jiang's father muttered softly:

"You know perfectly well that this girl isn't as obedient as she used to be."

"That's because you were too strict with him before!" Jiang's mother pinched his arm mercilessly.

"Alright, stop dawdling and hurry up and go inside to give the things to Ruyue."

After being scolded by his wife, Jiang's father had no choice but to withdraw his suspicious gaze.

He turned around and knocked twice on the door.

A knock came at the door.

inside the house.

Jiang Ruyue was panting heavily.

She looked down at herself; the T-shirt that Bai Li had haphazardly put on her was a little crooked.

She quickly straightened her collar and smoothed out the wrinkles in her pleated skirt.

I took several deep breaths to calm my wildly beating heart before I gripped the doorknob and pressed it down.

The door opened.

"Why are you taking so long to open the door?"

Jiang's father carried large and small bags, complaining as he entered the house.

Jiang Ruyue didn't know how to explain, so she could only stand there stammering like a child who had done something wrong.

Jiang's father didn't notice her unease and placed the thermos and several boxes of oral liquid on the table.

Jiang's mother placed the pillow she brought from home on the bedside table, muttering that she couldn't sleep well on the hotel pillow.

After putting his things away, Jiang's father turned his head and his gaze fell on his daughter's face.

"Why is your face so red?" Jiang's father asked, frowning.

These words made Jiang Ruyue's heart leap into her throat.

She hurriedly turned her hands behind her back, her fingers digging into her palms.

She was dressed neatly now, but she couldn't hide the physical reaction she had just experienced when she almost completely succumbed to Bai Li's embrace.

Before she could come up with a plausible excuse...

Jiang's mother, standing next to her, was even more flustered than she was.

Jiang's mother rushed over anxiously:

"Oh dear, my little darling, you must have caught a cold at this time!"

Jiang's mother looked anxious and reached out to place her hand on Jiang Ruyue's forehead.

I got a piece that was piping hot.

Now Jiang's mother was really worried:

"She really does have a fever! We need to find a hospital or clinic right away. The exam is in two days, and getting sick now can't afford to cause any problems!"

As she spoke, Jiang's mother reached out to pull her arm and lead her outside.

Seeing her mother's alarmed expression, Jiang Ruyue was forced to summon her survival instinct.

She quickly took half a step back to avoid the hand.

"No... I don't have a cold."

Jiang Ruyue spoke up to explain.

She pointed to the somewhat messy bed and lied with feigned seriousness:

"I was sleeping just now, but the hotel blanket was too thick. I was sweating from being inside it."

To prove she wasn't sick, she bounced around a couple of times as before.

Jiang's parents exchanged a glance, and seeing her so full of energy, they finally felt relieved.

"So she covered it up." Jiang's father sighed, pointing at her and scolding her:

"Don't sleep out during this period; adjust your sleep schedule. Irregular habits are the worst thing to do before the exam."

Jiang's mother went over and helped her smooth out the quilt, muttering to herself:

"I brought you the pillow from home, try to use it as you're used to it. Also, remember to drink those oral liquids on the table on time, they're the ones you drink regularly."

Jiang Ruyue nodded obediently, listening to instructions like a puppet.

We finally managed to fool them this time.

……

The room on the left, separated by a wall.

Bai Li lay on her back on the bed.

His original mission in coming to Wen County was to take care of Jiang Ruyue during her exams and, incidentally, provide some emotional support.

Well, now their parents have shown up.

He was unilaterally optimized and ended up with a lot of free time.

With nothing to do.

Bai Li took out his phone, opened Douyin (TikTok), and casually swiped the screen.

I had just scrolled past a live streamer dancing with a hip-twisting waist when a WeChat notification popped up at the top of the screen.

Bai Li tapped her fingertip lightly and switched to the chat interface.

Li Mengmeng: "Is Brother Bai Li home? Mengmeng and Mom and Dad are finally done with their work."

The text was followed by a Shiba Inu emoji that was spinning happily.

Upon seeing this message, Bai Li naturally pictured her soft, petite figure.

During this period, the girl was forced by her father, Li Fugui, to learn how to do business, leaving early and returning late every day.

The fact that he's sending messages now probably means he's just been released from his cage and can't wait to come find him.

Bai Li smiled and typed with one hand.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mengmeng. I'm here in Wenxian with Ruyue taking her exam right now. I'll come back to be with you in a couple of days."

……

Villa No. 2, Yunding Tiangong, Ping County.

Inside the spacious pink bedroom.

Li Mengmeng was lying on the big bed.

Today, she specially changed into a very seductive white silk maid outfit.

Two shapely calves, encased in white stockings that reached past the knees, were dangling in mid-air, swinging back and forth happily.

When you see the reply that pops up on the screen.

Li Mengmeng's smile froze, and she stood frozen on the bed.

These past few days she had been eagerly awaiting her father's dry business advice, patiently listening to him recount his tedious business philosophies, and finally, she was relieved.

She thought she could rush to find the man she longed for day and night.

result.

Bai Li isn't even in Ping County!

"hateful!"

Li Mengmeng puffed out her cheeks angrily and slapped the mattress hard.

"Wait until you come back, then see how Mengmeng bullies you."

She stared at the screen, making threatening remarks in a cute but fierce way.

After venting their frustrations.

Li Mengmeng turned over and looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling.

Its big, dark, bright eyes darted around a few times.

She remembered something.

Bai Li had casually mentioned before that the little robot was only eighteen and hadn't graduated yet, so he would definitely not touch her before her big exam was over.

There's this ironclad rule in place.

Even if Bai Li was provoked to the point of being furious, she could only suppress it.

Thinking about this.

On Li Mengmeng's soft, delicate face, her initial annoyance was replaced by a mischievous glint.

She chuckled slyly, like a smug little fox.

She picked up her phone again, opened the camera app, and switched to the front-facing camera.

"No need to wait for Brother Bai Li to come back..."

Li Mengmeng muttered to herself as she snapped photos of herself indiscriminately.

"Mengmeng is about to send some energy-boosting items to Brother Baili..."

"Let him be burning with desire over there but unable to relieve it, only able to suffer looking at the photos, hehehe~"
