"Ah? Yes."

Youxiang followed Luo Lin to the hospital bed, looked at the pile of fruits she had placed on the table, and after thinking for a while, she chose to open the outer bag, took out an orange from the inside, squatted down in front of the trash can and slowly peeling, and at the same time responded to Luo Lin without raising his head:

"As long as it's not too much of a question, I can answer the teacher."

"During the time I was busy in charge of the Treaty of Eden at Holy Trinity, I heard that someone was secretly helping to clean and organize documents in Xialai. Do you have any clues about this matter?"

"?!"

Youxiang's hands stopped suddenly, and a bit of obvious panic immediately appeared in the depths of her purple pupils. Fortunately, she was covered by her back, which provided her with sufficient buffer time to control her expression.

How did the teacher know? !

He probably hasn't been back to Xialai during this period of time, and I should have hidden it very well! !

"No, I'm not sure. After all, I usually have a lot of things to do. I also work on seminars, and I'm responsible for reviewing the Millennium clubs, and my own studies... I'm very busy!"

"Traveling to see the teacher temporarily like today is already at the cost of delaying a lot of schedules. If someone has to go to Xialai every day to do those things, how can her own life be coordinated!"

"So I don't know, I don't even have any relevant clues? I'm not always paying attention to Xia Lai's character."

"That's what a pity."

Luo Lin's sigh sounded from behind, with a sense of regret, drifting faintly into the ears of the purple-haired girl who unconsciously began to "carve flowers" on the orange peel with her nails.

"I thought Youxiang could understand a little bit, so it would be easier to find this person."

"Actually, to be honest, the speed at which things pile up in Xia Lei is really fast. Every time I encounter a situation like the Treaty of Eden that takes me a long time to deal with, when everything is over, the documents piled up in Xia Lei It's almost half the height of a person."

"If it wasn't for that mysterious student who has been helping me, I would have faced a similar situation when I went back this time. She has been busy in private for so long, and I really want to thank her."

"Eh? Yes, yes..."

Youxiang's voice paused, as if she was distracted for a moment, "Well, teacher, how are you going to thank that student?"

This sentence had just been uttered, and she seemed to realize that what she said was easy to be misunderstood, and quickly added:

"I don't mean anything else! It's just pure curiosity! Curiosity!"

"I know, um..."

There was an imperceptible smile in Luo Lin's voice, which was perfectly concealed by him at the end of his deliberately elongated tone, and the thoughts hooked on Youxiang floated towards the sky along with his pretended silence.

After a while like this, seeing the girl squatting on the ground's ears starting to turn slightly red, he finally stopped suppressing his answer, and responded casually:

"Give her a hug."

"No !!!!"

Youxiang stood up from the ground with a "thump", holding an orange that had only been peeled to less than a third in her hand, her little face was blushing.

"How can you do such a thing?! Even if it is your request, I will never agree to it—eh?"

As if realizing something all of a sudden, the girl's voice stopped abruptly. Looking at Luo Lin, who was sitting on the hospital bed in front of her, smiling and saying nothing, a silent atmosphere spread in the room little by little.

"teacher."

After a long while, she swallowed with difficulty, and tried her best to turn her head away to hide her hot cheeks.

"No..."

"No?"

"Don't laugh at me!!!"

Chapter 260 Five I Can Do Anything (Two in One)

"Teacher, don't laugh at me!"

Youxiang stared at Luo Lin with staring eyes, her fair cheeks were stained with a layer of delicate bright red, and even her pink earlobes couldn't escape, making people want to pinch her hands just looking at it.

I don't know if it's because she became angry from embarrassment, but she didn't falter so much that she was too shy to speak, on the contrary, she felt a bit "aggressive".

"Anyway, that's how I am! I can't bear to see Xia Lai's office in such a mess. No one sorts out the files or cleans up. The dust can accumulate in a thick layer. It's like a teacher. It never existed."

"No matter how you look at it, Xia Lai looks inappropriate! So I just go to tidy up once in a while! Really only once in a while! Absolutely not too much! It's only about five or six times a week!"

"As for those documents, it's the same thing! There are so many things waiting to be dealt with, can I just look at them on the table like this? As for helping the teacher to share the pressure, I have never thought about it! Even if I have By the way!"

"Okay, I get it, I get it."

Seeing that the purple-haired girl in front of her was in a state of blown hair, Luo Lin didn't choose to continue to tease her, but quickly reached out and pressed her head, and gently ran down along the soft long hair to comfort her. Yuuka was breathing a little short of breath.

"It's just a joke, there's no need to take it seriously, because it's too intimate to hug something of this nature, and I won't be so careless."

"It's not a matter of propriety anymore, teacher! Even if you joke with a girl, you have to have a limit!"

Youxiang protested dissatisfied, shaking her little head symbolically, but she didn't avoid Luo Lin's hand, she just glanced at her quietly, then pursed her mouth, and her voice suddenly dropped several notches.

"Well... But if you think about it carefully, the teacher is actually the kind of person who needs the help of others to give a gift. It's really too reluctant for you to decide how to thank the helper."

"So even if I thank you with a 'hug' as a gift...I don't know what other people will think, but if there is really no other way, I-I'm not—"

"Neither?"

But no matter how quiet Youxiang's voice was suppressed by herself, Luo Lin could still clearly catch some of the girl's voice when she opened and closed her lips and teeth when the distance between them was probably less than two meters.

"No, nothing! Teacher, you got it wrong!"

Youxiang panicked, subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, quickly shook her head, her big purple eyes rolled around several times, and finally came up with a less blunt way to change the subject.

"By the way! Speaking of which, teacher, how did you realize that I went to Xialai to help tidy up? When I was doing these things, I should have never been seen by anyone..."

"This matter has little to do with others. In the final analysis, you still have to ask yourself."

Luo Lin shrugged his shoulders, and spread his hands towards Youxiang, showing a bit of innocence in his expression.

"One day when you secretly went to Xialai, you dropped something there but didn't take it back?"

"Drop something? No..."

Youxiang's delicate brows frowned subconsciously, instinctively thinking according to what Luo Lin said, but for a while, she couldn't think of what she had lost in Xia Lai.

"Every time I leave, I will go back and check my belongings. I will bring everything with me—ah, could it be that time?!"

The words in her mouth were just in the middle of her mouth, but she was abruptly interrupted by the girl herself. She raised her hand and slapped her forehead, suddenly with a look of enlightenment, and clapped her palms together with a "snap".

"Is it the hair rope that I accidentally forgot when combing my hair? That should be the only time I forgot to bring all my things from Xialai. The teacher noticed me through the hair rope?"

"But it shouldn't be. If I remember correctly, I accidentally left the hair tie on the desk before I left Xialai at night, but I got up early the next morning to get it back. .”

"That period of time happened to be the busiest time for the teacher's work. The progress of the Treaty of Eden was always mentioned on the news. The teacher could only stay in Holy Trinity all day long. He probably didn't have time to go back to Xialai to see the hair rope. Right?"

"In theory, this is true, but there are always exceptions to everything."

Luo Lin smiled. Although he didn't think about explaining it in detail, he didn't intend to hide it from Yuxiang. He simply organized his language a little, and said straightforwardly:

"I had something to do that day and I needed to go back to the DU area. On the way, I came back to Xialai to have a look, and then I happened to find the little thing you left behind."

"...What, it's such a coincidence."

Youxiang froze for a moment, then sighed in a low voice, while feeling a burst of relaxation in her heart, but at the same time, an inexplicable sense of loss floated up from some corner.

It's as if I started to work hard in secret a long time in advance, and I finally planned a well-prepared date after saving food and money for a long time. When I invite the person I like with anxiety and hope to surprise the other party, Just walked in front of him before he had time to speak, but the other party made a teasing laugh first:

I saw you preparing it earlier, if I guessed correctly, you are going to invite me to dinner today, right?

Such a situation and example may not be very appropriate, but all the efforts I have made in it finally conveyed the slight joy in the eyes of a certain person, and the slight regret that I still failed to act coquettishly to ask for credit in person. The mood at the moment is exactly the same.

Two seemingly diametrically opposite emotions entangled and embraced, perfectly mixed in the girl's heart, hung on her beating heart, and messed up the logically clear thoughts in the past. The strange feeling that she had never experienced before made her not know how to react next.

So she could only look at Luo Lin who didn't continue to talk about it, imitating him to stay silent, squatting down and continuing to peel the orange in his hand, and let him ruffle her hair like a cat.

"Thank you, Yuuka."

The man's steady voice with a faint smile rang in his ears, Youxiang's hand movements stopped, and his emotions became a little clearer to the naked eye, but he was still muttering something about other aspects.

"Well... there's no need to say it so formally, anyway, I have already agreed to help the teacher with the accounting management, if I don't get paid after I go back because of too much work accumulation, then I will feel very headache. "

"Besides, I didn't plan to help the teacher for a long time. It's just that the seminar was not so busy during those days, and I happened to have some free time to go to Xialai every day..."

"There won't be a next time this kind of thing will happen? You are not allowed to rely on my existence. In the future, the teacher will still have to rely more on himself to arrange the time."

At first glance, the girl's words sounded fine, but after a little careful thought, she found many contradictions with her previous statement.

Luo Lin naturally discovered these inconsistencies, but after getting along for such a long time, he also knew in his heart that most of the time what Youxiang said was just an "excuse" to cover up his real thoughts. Listen to it positively.

So he didn't point it out, just nodded with a smile as if he didn't notice, reached out and grabbed the girl's drooping ponytail, shaking it gently from side to side, feeling the naughty soft touch of the hair in the palm of his hand like running water.

"Don't worry about those things, we can talk about them later, but what Youxiang has done must have some corresponding rewards, right?"

"Is there any gift you want? I've bought it for you, and I'll take it as a thank you this time."

Throwing the last piece of orange peel into the trash can, Youxiang was slightly stunned, subconsciously biting her lips.

gift...?

What do I want?

Stationery?

The existing ones are enough. I don’t know how many pens, papers, etc. produced by the brands I use, I don’t know how many. If necessary, I can take them at any time when I go home, and I don’t have to worry about running out of them.

arms?

In fact, there is not a shortage of bullets, and the consumption in daily life is definitely not more than the amount that is intentionally stored at ordinary times, and no matter how bad it is, you can ask the seminar to reimburse a batch after a large amount of consumption.

Other daily necessities?

I don’t need the teacher’s help to buy the most important calculator when doing accounting work. The teacher has already sent one of the backpacks that can be used in school.

Not to mention clothes and the like, there is no doubt that you need to wear the uniform of the college when you go to school, and finally on the weekends, it is true that you can wear your personal clothes to go out theoretically, but I have to work overtime more often Add a little bit of work to deal with the seminar, and there is no chance to wear private clothes.

Even when there is an occasional need, the previous sets of private clothes are enough to wear, and the current weather is not yet the season to buy new clothes, so it is not necessary to consider it comprehensively.

So, how should I answer the teacher's question?

If you don’t say anything, will you be dismissed by the teacher as too pretentious?But if you want a gift... it's better to have something commemorative, and you should think about the price, so you can't waste the teacher's money...

Youxiang was concentrating on thinking, stood up slowly, and sat down next to Luo Lin almost subconsciously, breaking the orange in her hand into several pieces, as if she had imagined it countless times, and moved towards him in a very natural way. Passed it to the mouth.

"?"

Luo Lin raised his eyebrows slightly, and tilted his head back slightly. Looking at Youxiang, he acted according to his inner instinct. First, he reached out to take the orange from her hand and threw it into his mouth, and then he stretched out his hand. Before touching the second petal, he patted her shoulder in time and said vaguely:

"Hey, you're back to your senses, girl."

"Huh? Ah."

The coherent thoughts in her mind were interrupted, Youxiang blinked her eyes, walked out of her own thoughts, and suddenly recalled the previous actions of her body, her slender shoulders trembled immediately.

Did I...did I...do the action I imagined to take care of the teacher before coming to the hospital?

The blush on her cheeks hadn't completely faded away, and large swaths rose again. She pretended to be calm and stabilized her expression, turned her head carefully, and secretly glanced at Luo Lin beside her.

But to her surprise, Luo Lin didn't have the familiar teasing expression on her face, but a gentle smile on the corner of her lips.

"Old, teacher..."

Youxiang's words suddenly got stuck, she stuttered several times and still didn't say anything, she just silently turned her eyes away, pressed one hand on her chest, trying to ease her heartbeat that suddenly accelerated for some reason.

W-what...

I thought I would make another joke to bully me, but what's the matter with that smile?

Also, my current state is also very strange, not at all what it should be like to visit a patient... What's wrong with me?

"Does the question of presents bother you?"

Luo Lin turned his head sideways, his eyes met You Xiangying's purple pupils in mid-air, and the pure smile in his eyes became more apparent, clearly reflected in the depths of the girl's clear eyes.

"Don't rush to think about this matter. My promise is always valid. When you have what you want in the future, you can come to me in time."

"Uh...uh, I know, teacher."

Youxiang pursed her thin lips, and curled up her small hands on her chest slightly, her knuckles rubbed against the neat close-fitting shirt in front of her chest, making it itchy.

There is an impulsive feeling in my heart.

I can't name it, but there is no doubt that it does exist.

What the hell does it... want me to do?

The girl was thinking, but her eyes were fixed on Luo Lin, watching the man pick up the remote control of the TV, tune to a news program, and concentrate on understanding the latest news from the outside world.
