Yan Yuan felt that he had been quite "bad" to her.

Linlin stared at him, from his brow bone to the bridge of his nose, his eyes, his lips...

It's so beautiful, the more I look at it, the more beautiful it becomes.

It belongs to her.

Yan Yuan couldn't stand her gaze, but his mood improved more than ever before. He tenderly kissed Linlin's forehead. "Okay, let's do some practice problems."

If she keeps hugging me like this, I'll lose my composure.

Linlin visited her boyfriend's dorm for the first time and spent the whole afternoon doing practice problems.

Dinner was eaten in the cafeteria. After dinner, Yan Yuan took Linlin home.

Linlin was still chattering away when she entered the room and saw Jiang Chengzhou sitting imposingly in the living room, his face unfriendly.

Linlin took off her coat and hung it on the hanger. As she turned around, she quickly winked at Yan Yuan, then flew over to Jiang Chengzhou with a beaming smile, sat down next to him, and took his arm. "Brother, are you done with school? Are you tired? Have you had dinner?"

Jiang Chengzhou's expression softened, and he asked in a stern voice, "Where did you two go today?"

"I went to his dorm," Linlin answered honestly.

"You spent the whole day in the dorm?"

"Um."

"Hmm!" Jiang Chengzhou reached out and tapped her forehead. "Don't you know all men are wolves in sheep's clothing? You dared to go home with him?"

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Yan Yuan strode over, examined her forehead, and said somewhat displeased, "I invited her over, why are you yelling at her?"

Jiang Chengzhou controlled his strength, knowing his limits, and wouldn't really hurt her. But seeing Yan Yuan like this, he couldn't help but laugh in anger.

Linlin hadn't expected things to develop this way, and she quickly tugged at Yan Yuan's sleeve, mouthing, "I was faking it."

"Ha!" Jiang Chengzhou sneered from the side.

Yan Yuan sighed, at a loss with the siblings. After a pause, he asked Jiang Chengzhou, "Brother, have you eaten dinner?"

The living room became quiet.

Jiang Chengzhou's lips curled up into a wide, uncontrollable smile.

He leaned back on the sofa and said slowly, "I haven't eaten, why?"

Yan Yuan rolled up his sleeves. "Shall I make something for you, sir?"

Before Jiang Chengzhou could speak, Linlin had already stood up and followed Yan Yuan closely toward the kitchen, saying, "I'll help you."

Jiang Chengzhou's mood worsened again.

The kitchen echoed with the soft sound of a spatula striking a wok, followed soon by the aroma of chopped scallions.

Yan Yuan moved swiftly, and in less than 10 minutes he brought out a steaming bowl of egg noodles.

I also fried an egg for Linlin.

Seeing that he didn't have any, Linlin picked out half of it and fed it to him.

Jiang Chengzhou couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that Yan Yuan was doing it on purpose.

With the official start of the school year, the group became busy again.

Shen Man is the busiest. She not only has to attend classes, but also has to go to clinical and laboratory settings with her mentor, so she can't come often.

Jiang Chengzhou is graduating this year, and there are many things to do at school.

Yan Yuan seemed to be very busy. Once, he didn't come over for a whole week. When he didn't have class on Saturday, Linlin finally couldn't help but go to the school to wait for him.

It's already May, and the weather is getting warmer.

Linlin dressed up specially today.

She wore a beige long-sleeved shirt, with the top button undone at the collar. The fabric was light and smooth, and it clung to her slender shoulders when the wind blew.

She wore a light camel-colored cardigan over her shoulders, but didn't actually wear it; instead, it was loosely draped over her shoulders. On her feet were a pair of low-heeled lambskin shoes.

Even in the capital, her outfit was considered excessively fashionable, and coupled with her beautiful face, she was effortlessly stunning.

Yan Yuan had just opened the door in the morning when he saw the girl walk out from the side.

He looked somewhat flustered. "Why did you come here?"

Linlin pushed him aside and went inside. "Can't I come in?"

Yan Yuan quickly followed. He hadn't had time to tidy up the house recently, and it was cluttered with loose machine parts, making it look rather messy.

He tidied up hastily, making room for me. "Have a seat, I'll tidy up a bit."

Linlin grabbed him, her voice choked with emotion, "What's wrong? Don't you want to date me anymore?"

Yan Yuan's eyes stung with tears. "How could that be? I've been too busy lately. I'll be fine once this period is over."

Linlin looked at him. "Really? You have another secret?"

Everyone has curiosity, and Linlin certainly wanted to know Yan Yuan's secret.

But he didn't say anything, so Linlin didn't ask. But if it always happened like this, she would feel wronged.

Yan Yuan hugged her and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry, I haven't washed up yet. Can I tell you after I've washed up?"

Linlin nodded and released his hand.

Yan Yuan hadn't taken the time to groom himself properly for several days; his beard was unkempt, and he was always in a rush, not getting home until the wee hours of the morning.

He went to the small villa, stood outside the window for a while, and then left immediately.

He never expected Linlin to come looking for him.

After washing up, Yan Yuan shaved in his room, changed into a clean white shirt, straightened the collar in front of the mirror, and then went out of the room.

He still had a light bluish-black ring around his eyes, but after shaving his beard, he looked much more energetic than before.

Linlin was still sitting on the chair outside, her hands on her knees. When she heard footsteps, she looked up.

She stood up, pursed her lips slightly, and made no further move.

Yan Yuan walked to her side and opened his arms.

Yan Yuan only breathed a sigh of relief when the girl took the initiative to come over and bury her face in his chest.

He bent down slightly, supporting her back with one hand and holding her knees with the other, picked her up, turned around and sat down on the chair, letting her sit on his lap.

Linlin didn't struggle, but poked his chest. "Have you been very busy lately?"

"Yes."

"Then next time you should tell me first."

"I was wrong." Yan Yuan hugged his little moon tightly.

He originally planned to go see her after finishing his work, but the better he did, the more capable his partners thought he was, and they piled more work on him.

However, Yan Yuan himself was also a bit too eager to produce results, otherwise he wouldn't have acted this way.

Linlin hugged his neck. "Okay, I forgive you."

Yan Yuan's heart tightened. "Linlin, we need to discuss something. Could you raise your expectations of me a little higher?"

She was so good to him that he felt guilty.

Linlin frowned, puzzled, and touched his forehead. "Why? Are you stupid?"

Yan Yuan took her hand away. "When you're unhappy, you take it out on me."

Linlin was a little embarrassed, because she was not good at losing her temper.

"How do I send it?"

"You can hit me or scold me."

Linlin pulled her hands inside her clothes. "I don't think this is a good idea."

Yan Yuan smiled helplessly, "What if I really bully you?"

Linlin lowered her head and remained silent.

Yan Yuan lifted her chin. "Why won't you say anything?"

Linlin's lips moved slightly. "Do you really want to tell me?"

"Speak."

Linlin wanted to say that they should break up, but she knew that Yan Yuan would be hurt, so she changed her words.

She smiled slyly, "If you bully me, I won't play with you anymore."
