In other words, Xue Lan, who is unable to serve as a student teacher, will return to the university.

Upon learning of this, Ling Ziqian was somewhat worried.

Huan Yue couldn't help but shout, "Why is it all like this? Could it be that Cupid has cursed you? After Nanako kissed you, she went back to Japan. After Xue Lan kissed you, she also left. Ling Ziqian, you are a curse!"

Ling Ziqian was speechless; he didn't want this to happen either.

Before long, Xue Lan sent a message to Ling Ziqian.

She went back to university; the university she attended was Haitang University...

Episode 21: How despicable! He was framed!

Chapter 161 Master, do you want to earn some extra money?

Haitang University is, of course, a university located in Haitang City.

Shen Qiaoyan's parents are teachers at Haitang University.

Even though Xuelan went back to university, they could still see each other often.

It seems I worried for nothing, Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief.

After school in the afternoon, Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi left together, leaving Ling Ziqian behind.

They seemed a little angry, and Ling Ziqian awkwardly scratched his head, following them from a distance.

Xue Lan, that lively girl, stood at the school gate and stopped Dou Xiaorong and Su Mingxi.

Upon seeing Ling Ziqian, she naturally waved frantically.

Ling Ziqian blushed slightly, but forced himself to walk over.

"I've officially moved into my cousin's house, and I'll be cooking tonight. Please enjoy the meal!" Xue Lan announced.

"Hehe, I'll definitely go and support them!" Dou Xiaorong was the first to raise her hand.

Su Mingxi smiled and said, "I really want to try Sister Xuelan's cooking!"

"I'll make sure you burst!" Xue Lan laughed as she looked at Ling Ziqian. "Ziqian, where's Qiaoyan? Why hasn't she come out yet?"

"It should be about time, let's wait a little longer." Ling Ziqian scratched his head.

"Then you wait here, tell her about this, and we'll go home first!" Dou Xiaorong said, pulling Su Mingxi and Xue Lan away.

Watching them walk away, Ling Ziqian stood awkwardly at the school gate, waiting for Shen Qiaoyan.

“I have a feeling that they’re deliberately keeping their distance from you,” Huan Yue said.

"Hmm." Ling Ziqian nodded. "That's good too. Getting too close isn't good for anyone."

"Hehe. That's true, but ultimately you'll need to make a choice: who do you like the most?"

Ling Ziqian didn't answer the question. He took out his phone and dialed Shen Qiaoyan's number.

The call connected, but the guy was still busy in the classroom.

After telling Xue Lan about the dinner invitation, Ling Ziqian headed home.

He returned home and put down his backpack. After changing his clothes, he said goodbye to Yu Meiren. Ling Ziqian planned to go to Cui Qiuzhen's house.

Yu Meiren stopped him and handed him three envelopes. "Mingxi has been working part-time at our house for a month now, so it's time to pay her."

"A month has passed. Time flies," Ling Ziqian thought to himself.

He took the envelope containing the money, somewhat surprised. "Why are there three?"

Yu Meiren angrily raised her hand and tapped Ling Ziqian on the head, "Xiao Rong and Qiao Yan also helped!"

Ling Ziqian smiled and put the envelope in his pocket.

Cupid sat on the sofa, eating donuts and watching TV as usual.

That guy has been a member of the family for over a month now.

I feel sorry for her, having her stay at home every day.

Ling Ziqian walked over. Standing in front of Cupid, he smiled at her, "Miss, Xue Lan is treating us to dinner, why don't you come along?"

Cupid smiled and shook her head, "If I go too, Sister Beauty will be all alone at home, and she'll be very lonely."

Hearing these words, Yu Meiren was overjoyed. She rushed over and hugged Cupid tightly, kissing her repeatedly. "I really didn't expect Ai to be so considerate of me. Waaah, she's truly my own daughter, so different from that bastard son of mine..."

Are you referring to yourself when you say "wild son"?

Ling Ziqian was speechless.

Looking at the two of them so close, Ling Ziqian felt a pang of jealousy, but also a sense of warmth.

"I'll go to Sister Xuelan's place first." Ling Ziqian scratched his head and walked downstairs, muttering to himself, "When I come back, I might buy you something. Do you want some late-night snacks, or..."

"Hug the bear!"

"jewelry!"

The two guys, embracing each other, gave a clean and efficient answer.

Yu Meiren giggled, "Daddy, hurry back!"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense!" Ling Ziqian was speechless.

"Hehe..." Cupid-chan chuckled to herself.

Yu Meiren ignored Ling Ziqian and played around with Cupid.

Ling Ziqian walked downstairs and left the cake shop.

Huan Yue couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister Meiren is so cute! She can actually say such adorable things!"

Ling Ziqian laughed helplessly, "That guy can be cute at times, and scary at others."

As Ling Ziqian passed by the entrance of the residential compound, he was surprised to find Dou Xiaorong standing there.

She held her right hand with her left, looking somewhat uneasy.

She had also changed her clothes and seemed to have put on light makeup, making her look much prettier than usual.

She wasn't as lively and carefree as usual; she used to be a young girl, but now she was a lady.

Ling Ziqian felt somewhat embarrassed, but he knew that he had to break the deadlock himself.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Ziqian smiled and said to her, "Let's go together."

Dou Xiaorong nodded slightly, but she glanced at Ling Ziqian with some dissatisfaction.

Ling Ziqian couldn't understand what was going on, so Huan Yue immediately shouted to remind him.

"Idiot, she changed into such a beautiful outfit, are you blind? Can't you even give her a compliment?!"

“Uh…” Ling Ziqian had really overlooked this kind of thing.

He quickly gathered his thoughts, "Are those clothes new? They look great on you, very pretty."

Dou Xiaorong smiled, but punched Ling Ziqian, "Idiot, I've worn this outfit three times already!"

Ling Ziqian was immediately covered in sweat. He really hadn't noticed this at all!

However, Dou Xiaorong didn't care about such things. She smiled slightly, reached out and took Ling Ziqian's arm, and walked forward together.

Ling Ziqian was tense all over, feeling that this guy had changed after what happened at noon.

"What are you so nervous about? Are you afraid I'll eat you up?" Dou Xiaorong sensed that Ling Ziqian was a little stiff.

"No, no." Ling Ziqian scratched his head and smiled. He remembered Yu Meiren's instructions and quickly took out the envelope containing the money. "Since last month, you have often helped take care of the cake shop, so Mom has prepared a bonus for you."

"Hehe, really?" Dou Xiaorong laughed happily. "You can keep it for now, the pockets on my clothes are too small."

Ling Ziqian put the envelope away, and the two walked and talked, passing by the Su family supermarket on the way.

Business was good at the supermarket; Mr. and Mrs. Su, along with some employees, were busy.

The two exchanged a smile, and without going in to say hello, went straight to Cui Qiuzhen's house.

She rang the doorbell, and Cui Xue opened the door. Upon seeing Ling Ziqian, she immediately rushed over to him.

Su Mingxi has arrived, and Cui Qiuzhen and Xue Lan are busy in the kitchen.

Upon seeing Su Mingxi, Ling Ziqian naturally took out the envelope.

Su Mingxi immediately waved her hand in refusal. She still owed Ling Ziqian a large debt, and besides, Ling Ziqian had helped her family so much.

"Let's keep things separate. You've helped look after the cake shop so many times, this is the reward you deserve." Ling Ziqian forcefully stuffed the envelope into Su Mingxi's hand.

The envelope in her hand was rather thick. Su Mingxi opened it and saw that there was a thousand yuan inside. She immediately panicked.

“I only go to the store occasionally, a few hundred yuan is enough, this is too much.”

"This is the salary your mom gave you. If you have any problems, go talk to her!"

After Ling Ziqian said that, Dou Xiaorong quickly tried to persuade Su Mingxi, and Su Mingxi had no choice but to accept it.

Not long after, Ling Ziqian received a call from Shen Qiaoyan, who said that the guy had never been here before and couldn't find his way.

Recalling the scene of her going to Su Mingxi's house, Ling Ziqian didn't mention the address and went downstairs to pick her up.

Standing at the entrance of the residential area, I soon saw Shen Qiaoyan's figure.

Ling Ziqian beckoned her over and took out an envelope.

“This is…” Shen Qiaoyan was startled by the envelope in Ling Ziqian’s hand.

"A letter of affection," Ling Ziqian said with a smile.

Shen Qiaoyan didn't believe it and snatched it away, only to find it was full of money.

Ling Ziqian explained, and Shen Qiaoyan readily accepted it, telling Ling Ziqian to thank Yu Meiren.

Just as they were about to go upstairs, Shen Qiaoyan grabbed Ling Ziqian's arm. "Master, do you want to earn some extra money?"

"What extra income?" Ling Ziqian didn't understand what Shen Qiaoyan was talking about.

"That's right, with your skills, someone wants to hire you as a bodyguard," Shen Qiaoyan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ling Ziqian immediately wanted to refuse, but he was also curious, "Who wants to hire me as a bodyguard?"

Shen Qiaoyan replied somewhat awkwardly, "Fire Man."
