Luo Lingsheng had received countless confessions and passionate pursuits because of his appearance and family background, but he had never met someone like Shih Yunnan.
— — Luo Lingsheng, you’re so good-looking.
— — Do you like boys or girls? Do you have a lover? Can I pursue you?
— — Luo Lingsheng, you’re so good-looking, I can …
— — Luo Lingsheng, if you don’t mind, can I pursue you?
Ever since the first time they met after the birthday party, he could clearly feel Shih Yunnan’s affection and joy every time they met.
Now, just these few words had caused thousands of waves in Luo Lingsheng’s heart.
However, Shih Yunnan was still young and was at the age when he was most interested in the outside world. He might be impulsive and have a good impression of him now, but who knows, maybe next month he would be with someone else.
Moreover, whether Shih Yunnan chose to stay abroad or return to China, his focus should be on his studies.
Luo Lingsheng did not want to treat his feelings casually, and he did not want to use his so-called relationship to ‘kidnap’ himself, so as not to delay the other party.
Shih Yunnan waited for a long time and almost lost himself in Luo Lingsheng’s deep eyes. In the end, he could not keep calm.
“Luo Lingsheng, is it okay or not?”
Luo Lingsheng’s tone was very subtle. “How old are you? How many times have we met? If you’re awake, go upstairs. Otherwise, you can stay in the car tonight. “
Shih Yunnan heard his answer and reluctantly snorted and hurriedly followed him like a little tail.
“I’m already 18 years old, and I’m qualified to be responsible for my own life. So what if we haven’t met? Some people even dare to get married after meeting once or twice. “
Luo Lingsheng swiped the elevator card and looked at Shih Yunnan, who was still in front of him. “Get married in a flash? You’re not that old yet. “
“…”
Shih Yunnan was silent for a few seconds and continued, “Then wait for me, it’s only four years.”
Judging from his serious tone, he seemed to be considering the possibility of their ‘marriage’ in the future.
This time, it was Luo Lingsheng’s turn to be speechless.
The elevator stopped at the twenty-first floor.
Luo Lingsheng walked to the door and quickly opened it with his fingerprint. He held the door handle and stood diagonally, saying to the clingy girl behind him, “Okay, go in before I regret letting you stay.”
When Shih Yunnan heard this, he stepped into the house without another word.
Luo Lingsheng followed closely behind. Only when his back was facing Shih Yunnan did he reveal a silent smile.
He turned around and looked at Shih Yunnan, who finally looked a little more reserved in someone else’s house, and said, “It’s getting late. I still have work to do. Go to bed early after taking a shower. There are new toiletries and disposable bathrobes in the bathroom cabinet from last time.”
“Alright.”
Shih Yunnan agreed and had no choice but to drop the topic.
It was already troublesome enough for him to stay at Luo Lingsheng’s house. He couldn’t really ‘take a mile after taking an inch’ and affect his work.
Shih Yunnan looked at Luo Lingsheng’s back as he entered the house. A glimmer of light flashed across his eyes and he muttered in an almost inaudible voice, “… Mom, I seem to have met someone I really like.”
Although, he doesn’t like me yet.
…
Shih Yunnan went into the bathroom to take a hot shower. He took advantage of the alone time to think …
He had already made up his mind to transfer back to China. However, he didn’t plan to tell Old Master Wen, Wen Yibei, and the others for the time being. It would be easier to tell them when he was admitted to a local university.
China’s universities would start in September, and there were still three and a half months left.
Not only did he have to complete the transfer procedures before school started, but he also had to find a short-term rental house for himself and a reliable part-time job.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to survive the most difficult third year of high school with his limited savings.
Shih Yunnan was a very strong-willed person. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not borrow money from Wen Yibei or his friends.
The pitter-patter of the water stopped.
Shih Yunnan sighed softly. He suddenly felt fortunate that Luo Lingsheng had rejected him just now. He used a tissue to wipe off the mist on the mirror and puffed out his cheeks as he exhaled.
“Shih Yunnan, oh Shih Yunnan, with your messy situation, you still have the nerve to pursue other people?”
With Luo Lingsheng’s qualifications, it was good enough that he didn’t suspect that you were deliberately trying to curry favor with him. How could he possibly fancy an ungraduated student like you?
Shih Yunnan suppressed the feeling of inferiority in his heart. He simply changed into a bathrobe and washed his clothes.
Luo Lingsheng’s house had a dryer, so it saved him the trouble of not having a change of clothes.
When Shih Yunnan finished cleaning up, it was almost eleven o ‘clock.
He stood at the door of the guest room, but his gaze fell on the floor not far away. The light from the room next door shone through the gap in the door.
Luo Lingsheng was still awake.
When Shih Yunnan thought of this, the impulse in his heart uncontrollably emerged again. He hesitated for a while before he finally knocked on Luo Lingsheng’s door.
“Come in, the door is unlocked.”
Shih Yunnan opened the door, but did not dare to casually step into Luo Lingsheng’s private space.
Luo Lingsheng, who had just finished his work, looked up and his gaze fell on Shih Yunnan. “Finished washing up? You fell asleep in the car just now. Aren’t you sleepy now? “
Shih Yunnan’s eyes were clear as he smiled. “Nothing, I just wanted to say goodnight to you.”
He paused. “Luo Lingsheng, goodnight.”
Luo Lingsheng rubbed his fingertips under the table. “Goodnight.”
Shih Yunnan returned to the guest room next door with satisfaction. He adjusted the table lamp to the lowest brightness before he wrapped himself in the quilt and closed his eyes.
He did not know why, but he actually felt a long-lost sense of security in someone else’s home.
He had a good night’s sleep.
When Shih Yunnan woke up, Luo Lingsheng had already prepared breakfast.
He still had his share. It was the same familiar sandwich, but this time, the sandwich was replaced with bacon and eggs.
Shih Yunnan actually had a bad habit. He had always prepared breakfast according to his heart. Sometimes, when he woke up late, he would simply not eat it. There was also a period of time when he ate buckwheat toast for half a month to save money.
Luo Lingsheng walked out of the kitchen with two cups, but unlike last time, the cup of coffee in his hand was replaced with milk.
When Shih Yunnan saw the cup of milk in front of his table, his mood suddenly improved. It was a happy feeling to be able to eat a carefully prepared breakfast as soon as he woke up.
“There’s milk at home?”
Luo Lingsheng met his gaze and his tone softened. “Let’s eat.”
Actually, there was no milk at home, but he remembered Shih Yunnan’s resistance to coffee last time, so he specially went downstairs to the convenience store to buy it.
“Okay, thank you.” Shih Yunnan picked up the sandwich and took a bite.
Luo Lingsheng saw this and silently ate his breakfast.
He was not a talkative person, so he was used to silence when driving and eating breakfast.
The two of them finished their breakfast in silence. Luo Lingsheng asked, “What are your plans later today? Are you going to the hospital like last time? “
Shih Yunnan shook his head and said vaguely, “No, I have other things to do.”
Luo Lingsheng nodded and did not ask any more questions.
Shih Yunnan saw that Luo Lingsheng did not want to pry into his privacy, but he could not resist his desire to share. “I have to find an education agency and a real estate agency. I’m very busy.”
“An agency?”
“Yes, I haven’t found a school yet. I have to confirm that a school is willing to accept me before I can prepare the information and go through the procedures.”
“I can live on campus after I start school, but it’s still summer vacation. I have to find a place to live long-term …” Shih Yunnan was worried about this matter.
Every inch of land in the capital was expensive. Not to mention the city center, even the slightly busier areas were expensive.
Even if there was a suitable place, the landlord might not be willing to rent it for three months. After the negotiations, it was inevitable that he would have to pay a deposit of one month for three months.
“I have to look in the suburbs and find a cheaper place. After I’m done, I have to find a job to earn money for tuition.”
He still had some savings in his overseas account, but everything had to be prepared for a rainy day. If he could rely on himself, he was determined not to rely on others.
Shih Yunnan drank a mouthful of milk and casually planned the next few days.
Luo Lingsheng stopped drinking coffee and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes.
He was clearly just over 18 years old, but why was his style more sophisticated than the average person? It was probably not the first time he had done something like this.
Although the Shi family could only be considered a small wealthy family at best, wasn’t it a bit too much to treat their own child like this?
“You really don’t plan to tell the Shi family and the Wen family about your transfer? Even if you’re now an adult, the elders of the two families can still … “
“I’m not going to tell them.” Shih Yunnan interrupted and swallowed the last bite of his sandwich.
“My grandfather and father are very fond of my stepmother’s children. They don’t even want to see me. If I tell them that I want to return to China to study, I can’t avoid a scolding.”
They might even think that he wanted to return to China to fight for the family fortune at such a young age.
“As for my grandfather, because he was hospitalized some time ago, my family was unhappy. I can’t implicate my brother.”
Wen Yibei had suffered a lot in the past few years. Moreover, it was more expensive for her to learn music.
Shih Yunnan raised his cup and said self-deprecatingly, “I’m not liked anywhere. It’s good to be alone. There’s no trouble.”
“…”
Luo Lingsheng couldn’t respond. The good mood in his heart inexplicably disappeared completely.
Shih Yunnan didn’t notice Luo Lingsheng’s true feelings and took the initiative to take the empty cup and plate into the kitchen to wash it.
The familiar alarm clock rang again. Luo Lingsheng casually turned it off and walked into the kitchen with the cup and plate.
Shih Yunnan asked, “Are you going out to work?”
“Yeah.”
Shi Yunnan nodded his head and sighed without leaving a trace.
However, he had no reason to continue staying here, and he was not qualified to make Luo Lingsheng agree to his impulsive request to date last night.
“Sorry to trouble you again last night. I’ll treat you to dinner another day.” Shih Yunnan wanted to say something but hesitated. He inexplicably felt reluctant. “Then … then I’ll leave first?”
When he saw that Luo Lingsheng didn’t answer, he thought that the other party tacitly agreed to his behavior. Who knew that just as they brushed shoulders, Luo Lingsheng suddenly grabbed his wrist.
“It’s no trouble.”
“Ah?” Shih Yunnan didn’t react for a moment.
“Shih Yunnan, I can help you settle your school. You don’t have to look for a house …”
Luo Lingsheng paused. His expression was somewhat indescribably complicated. He obviously didn’t realize that he would blurt out like this.
However, he was already halfway through his sentence. He had to finish.
“My house is located in the city center. Although I can’t let you live alone, I can give you the guest room.”
“Every month, plus breakfast and dinner, I’ll give you a thousand yuan. Do you want to rent it?”
“…”
Shih Yunnan blinked slowly. He was completely dumbfounded.
Wait a minute, was this considered “selling by force”? How could he encounter such a good thing?
Luo Lingsheng cleared his throat and asked again, “Yes, or no?”
“Yes?” Shih Yunnan repeatedly confirmed that he wasn’t joking. Only then did he nod like he was pounding garlic. “Yes!”
He couldn’t contain his smile after ‘picking up a bargain’. He immediately leaned closer to Luo Lingsheng and reminded him, “But Mr. Luo, you seem to be doing a losing business? What if you regret it at the last minute? “
Luo Lingsheng saw that Shih Yunnan was no longer as gloomy as before at the dining table. Instead, his eyes had become lively again. In the end, he followed his heart and chuckled.
“I don’t do losing business. This is called investing in advance.” Luo Lingsheng replied. He had to admit that — —
Although he didn’t explicitly agree to Shih Yunnan’s pursuit last night, it didn’t mean that he didn’t have that fleeting thought.
Shih Yunnan was in the third year of high school in China. Naturally, he had to prioritize his’ studies’. But what about after entering university?
Living under the same roof was the best way to test a person’s true nature.
Three more months of daily interaction not only gave him the opportunity to understand Shih Yunnan in depth, but also gave him a chance to ‘face his inner feelings’.
Luo Lingsheng secretly confirmed his thoughts and inched closer to the person in front of him. “Shih Yunnan, didn’t you say that you want to pursue me?”
Shih Yunnan seemed to feel Luo Lingsheng’s breath. “Hmm?”
Luo Lingsheng’s voice was as deep as a drum. “Go ahead.”
Shih Yunnan’s heart skipped a beat. “Wh-what?”
“I want you to study hard first.” Luo Lingsheng felt that Shih Yunnan’s flustered and confused look was quite cute. He slowly brought up the main point. “When you enter a domestic university, if you still have the same thoughts as last night …”
Shih Yunnan seemed to have expected something. He held his breath and listened to the last half of Luo Lingsheng’s sentence.
“When the time comes, we’ll talk about this matter properly with interest.”
