I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

Another day has come to an end.

It was really an uneventful day; it felt like nothing much happened on the second day of the school anniversary celebration.

Lin Zhou drove everyone back home.

On the way back, the lights outside the car window receded one by one, and tiny specks of light fell on the window.

"This is pretty good~" Luo Xiaoke sat in the back row, holding her phone and flipping through the photos she had taken today. When she saw something interesting, she would hand it to Bai Wanwan. Wanwan would usually just glance at it, and only when Lin Zhou appeared on the screen would she reach out and swipe the photo back.

"Wanwan~ You've seen this picture of Zhouzhou already, right?"

"I went there to see the scenery."

"Wo~" Luo Xiaoke smiled without saying a word, still looking as cute as ever.

Lin Zhou saw me in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but laugh, "The scenery is nothing compared to me."

"Yes, yes, you're so cool... so incredibly luxurious." Ye Zhiyu, sitting in the passenger seat, said without looking up, "Hey, why aren't you driving for me?"

"Try to drive less." Lin Zhou glanced at her and decided not to argue with this fish.

As the car turned into the familiar residential area, the road became much quieter. As the car drove in, the lights on both sides lit up layer by layer, following the car's movement.

Only after the car pulled into the garage did Gu Yuning, who had been resting against the back seat, sit up straight again. "Are we here?"

She was really tired and was in a semi-conscious state the whole time in the car.

"We're here, Chairman. Time to go home." Lin Zhou unbuckled his seatbelt. "Get some rest and take it easy."

Gu Yuning gave a soft "hmm," but when she got out of the car, she still took out her phone to look at it. After Lin Zhou noticed, she coughed lightly and turned off the screen.

"I was just checking the time."

"I didn't say anything."

"...Let's go."

After entering, Merlin jumped off the sofa, circled around the group's feet, and finally stopped in front of Luo Xiaoke. He raised his head and meowed twice, "Nyan ne ga~".

"Woo~ Meow~" Luo Xiaoke imitated a cat's meow and picked up Merlin, her soft voice making her indescribably cute.

Ye Zhiyu leaned back comfortably, her eyes even squinting. "Home is the best. Xiao Zhouzi, get me a glass of water."

"Where are your hands?" Lin Zhou glanced at his sister beside him, then bent down to change his shoes.

"Ah~ I've regressed."

"You're a paramecium, aren't you?"

The group chatted in the living room for a while. After Lin Zhou finished his water, he stretched his shoulders. Bai Wanwan, who had been sitting next to him, looked up when she saw him stand up. "Lin Zhou, where are we going?"

"Training? You haven't even started practicing yet." Lin Zhou gave a thumbs up.

"Huh? You're so tired today, why are you still training?" Ye Zhiyu turned her head away, not thinking that this was something Lin Zhou would do.

What's wrong with this guy lately? He's been exercising so diligently.

Are you in love?

DO doesn't have enough energy, so he needs to train?

Actually, the guesses were pretty much correct; Ye Zhiyu was guessing the final result.

DO!

"I'm leaving."

After Lin Zhou finished speaking, he went to change his clothes. After all, the principle of "Heaven rewards diligence" was there, and practicing it really did improve his skills, a completely different experience from before.

After changing into his workout clothes and arriving at the gym, Lin Zhou began doing push-ups in place. The first few dozen were relatively easy, and his breathing was steady. It wasn't until later that he gradually felt his arms and shoulders getting warm.

Lin Zhou looked down at the floor, counting as he adjusted his movements.

If only there were a Wanwan down there.

"Oh my god! The power is coming!"

After finally finishing for a while, he sat up to catch his breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel, and then picked up the dumbbells next to him—the sound of Ye Zhiyu and Luo Xiaoke chatting could be faintly heard outside the door, but it was not clear through the door.

By the end of his workout, his back was soaked with sweat. Lin Zhou put down the dumbbells and picked up his water glass when his phone on the table lit up.

【Strength +1】

It went up.

I spent so much time wielding the pot in the kitchen today, and then practiced again when I got back; my arms finally paid off with the soreness.

Lin Zhou pinched his arm, and he wasn't sure if it was just a feeling after seeing the prompt, but he felt that his arm was stronger than before when he exerted force. He lifted the dumbbells again and tried to lift them up, and they felt much lighter.

Not bad, not bad. If this continues, I'll be able to pin the fish to the ground sooner or later.

"Hmph~ Hmph~ Hmph~"

After resting for a while, he went back to his room to take a shower and planned to turn off the lights and take a nap.

But a strange chill came from his back, giving Lin Zhou a peculiar feeling.

No...this is not right.

My own cockroach reaction...

"Lin Zhou." A faint voice came from behind.

Lin Zhou froze for a moment, then snapped the light back on.

Bai Wanwan was standing right behind him, so close that he almost bumped into her when he turned around. The girl's long hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was looking up at him, holding her phone in her hand. He didn't know how long she had been inside.

"Wanwan, can you make some noise when you walk?" Lin Zhou said. "Have you... been hiding in my room the whole time?"

Bai Wanwan didn't answer, but took a step forward. Lin Zhou subconsciously stepped back, and his back hit the wall next to him.

"Are you... having a good day?"

"good?"

"With everyone."

"what……"

"Are you going to carry Yu Ning on your back?"

"Um, I didn't carry it... I didn't."

Bai Wanwan moved a little closer, her lips twitching slightly. "You...really regret it?"

The room lights were on, yet Lin Zhou inexplicably felt a chill down his back—especially after Bai Wanwan raised her hand to touch his face, her fingertips slowly sliding down his cheek and finally stopping near his collar.

"Tomorrow... just with me, okay?"

Lin Zhou: "..."

No, do we have to check the results right after we finished practicing?

But Wanwan, do you really want to do this now that you're in such a remote area?

Lin Zhou smirked, "Hehehehehehehehehehehehe."

"Wanwan, look here first."

Lin Zhou took out his phone, skillfully opened the app, and pressed the button before Bai Wanwan could get any closer. The girl's gaze fell on his phone, and she paused slightly. The hand that was originally holding his collar also stopped, but she still looked up at him quietly.

He freed his collar from her grasp, looked down at her small face so close to his own, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch it. "You're always scaring me, Wanwan. You'll easily lose me if you keep doing this."

"Never mind, what can I do? I like you." After Lin Zhou finished speaking, Bai Wanwan's ears turned red.

Lin Zhou didn't notice; he first hugged Bai Wanwan and gave her a top-notch deep breath, "Wow... Wanwan, you took a bath? You smell so good, *sssssssss*..."

First, pat his head.

Perhaps because Bai Wanwan had just taken a shower, Lin Zhou noticed her hair was wet as soon as he touched it. "Wanwan, didn't you dry your hair properly?"

Bai Wanwan: "..."

"Never mind." Lin Zhou picked up Bai Wanwan in his arms.
