Xiao Mingluo feels alive and full of energy . Then, he stops walking . He realizes Meng Xiaonan is walking with her head down, not realizing that he isn’t moving . Eventually, she runs into him .

The collision doesn’t hurt her, but it brings her back to reality . She looks up at Xiao Mingluo with confusion . “Why did you stop?”

He responds with silence, looking at her calmly . Even his blinking seems to have slowed down .

Meng Xiaonan is embarra.s.sed . She doesn’t know where to put her hands . Seeing the cola in his hands, she deflects the awkwardness by reaching out and s.n.a.t.c.hing the drink from him . “If you were smart, you would’ve drunk all your c.o.ke . ”

Meng Xiaonan breaks the mood . Xiao Mingluo opens his hand and runs it over his forehead like he is trying to stave off a headache . “Jiangnan, where do you want me to take you?”

It took a moment for Meng Xiaonan to realize what he’s doing for her . The corner of her mouth is twitching with dissatisfaction . “You take me out, and call me by my real name . Do you need my fist to validate your presence?”

“Fist?” Mingluo’s eyebrows wrinkle . Then, his hand wraps around her fist, he dips his head and kisses her deeply . Their lips meet and linger, full of urgency . When he finally pulls away, he looks at her . Her lips are slightly swollen and red .

“Do you still want to hit me with your fist?” Xiao Mingluo asks as he raises his eyebrow at her . He seems to be challenging her with his face .  Don’t dare me not to kiss you again .

Meng Xiaonan doesn’t mind if he kisses her again, but this is not the place suited to do so . If they were caught by the administration, she would get expelled, while Mingluo would stay because of his status . If she is kicked out, her mother would definitely kill her!

But as she ponders, her resolve weakens . “Promises, promises . ”

A fleeting expression crosses Mingluo’s face as he stares at Xiaonan . He keeps her hand in his as they approach the gates .

He wants to see his relationship with Meng Xiaonan to the very end . He knows there are still many thorns to be plucked from his barbed family ties . He doesn’t want her unhappy because his family thinks she’s not worthy . Since mending his relationship with his brother, with all that wasted time, this is the first time he wants to open his heart [to her] .

Just the thought of it makes him tighten his grip on her hand, and she unconsciously follows him .

The security guards recognize Xiao Mingluo as he approaches . Instead of stopping them, they open the gates and let them out . Xiaonan thought they would be riding in his car . Instead, they bypa.s.s the Lamborghini and walk up the sidewalk .

Meng Xiaonan’s heart tears when she looks at the orange sports car .  How can such a cool car be allowed to just be parked? It would have been cool to sit in the pa.s.senger seat and live it up for a while!

She doesn’t dare say that to him, but he knows what she’s thinking .

“My place is close enough there’s no need to drive,” he says, pulling her toward the high-end neighborhood next to the college .

Meng Xiaonan stands next to the security shack when they reach the gated community . As Xiao Mingluo gets a pa.s.s for her, Xiaonan watches a Spyker C8 drive through once the license plate was verified .

She complains the moment he comes out . “I know the rich are paying attention to low carbon emissions to be more environmentally conscious, but would it be… . ”

He interjects, “I just want to be with you a bit longer . ”

If he drove, he won’t be able to hold her hand . He’d rather be inconvenienced than give up the opportunity .

His words linger in her head . It may be sweet-talk, but it fills her heart . She wants to die for making the comment regarding the environment .

Mingluo doesn’t resent her statement . He wraps her hand around him, while he throws his arm around her shoulder . They just look like an ordinary couple . Without scrutiny, they can just hold on to each other .

It is rather quiet during this time of the day . There were a few people walking their dogs, and none of them looked at them .

She follows Mingluo to the elevator, and they take it to the 6th floor . Once they enter the apartment, Xiaonan is surprised . The suite is big, but empty . The four-bedroom apartment also has a kitchen, but it is empty as well .

“How come you have nothing?” Meng Xiaonan takes off her shoes and walks to the entrance to one of the bedrooms . It so happens to be the master suite with a separate bathroom . The master bedroom has a bed, a table, and a huge closet . A notebook sits on the table . It looks new, and the power cord hasn’t been connected yet .

She pulls the curtains apart, and the light fills the room brightly . The rays of the morning sun fall comfortably on her face .

“It’s been a while since I got this place . Haven’t I brought you here before?” he asks before sitting behind the desk .

Despite having furniture, he doesn’t have a sofa in the living room . However, he has all the electrical equipment he needs .

Xiao Mingluo walks over to turn on the air conditioner on . Gradually, the temperature drops, and the room gets cooler . Meng Xiaonan thinks it is too early in the day to have the AC on . Suddenly, she feels that her uniform isn’t enough to keep her warm .

A boy brings a girl back to his place, and stays in one room .  Wouldn’t a man take a woman under normal circ.u.mstances?

As Meng Xiaonan thinks about the situation, Xiao Mingluo goes ahead and plugs in his notebook . He stares at the screen seriously . From Xiaonan’s perspective, she can see the screen’s reflection on his face . He’s calmly watching the stock!

“What are you doing?” She sits down uncomfortably behind Mingluo . Half a meter separates them .

Is she that unattractive he’d rather see a boring curve than look at her?

“I’m checking the stocks . I bought a few some time ago,” he says while taking out his mobile to check data from the previous days .

“What am I supposed to do?” She stares at him, but he doesn’t respond .  What is there to do?

It takes a while before Xiao Mingluo looks up, then turns gently toward Meng Xiaonan . “Do you want to sleep? It looks like you have dark circles . ”

“What about you?” It was quite late when she got to the hospital last night, and when she got there, she couldn’t sleep at all . She heads to his bed and pulls the sheets over her to warm herself .

“I’ll sit here and wake you up later from your nap . ” He doesn’t even look at her when he makes the statement . His eyes are affixed at the stock market .

She’s always had dark circles, but she won’t turn down the offer of sleep if Xiao Mingluo volunteers his bed . She lays for a while, but sleep eludes her . When lying down finally annoys her enough, she sits up and asks, “What’s your take on An Chuxia’s situation? How can we help her?”

“What?” He doesn’t look up, but asks in confusion . “What help? What happened to her?”

Mingluo’s mind goes numb and forgets the computer . He turns to her helplessly and looks into her eyes . “You know I’ve been busy recently and have no time to care about these things . Tell me . What have I missed?”

Meng Xiaonan sighs and recounts the events that happened between Han Qilu and Chuxia . She doesn’t forget to include why she was out of her cla.s.sroom and hanging out with Mo Xinwei .

Xiao Mingluo is shocked after Xiaonan finishes . He didn’t know something this big happened . Although Xiaonan laughed throughout her story telling, the series of events is quite serious .

“You should’ve told me sooner . ” Xiao Mingluo says as he stands in front of the window . “An Chuxia is truly pitiful . I’ve been so busy at the company, I can’t just drop things right now . Go visit An Chuxia more often for me . ”

“Of course . ” She lowers her head and asks, “If I was An Chuxia, how pathetic could I get?”

“I will make time to visit Qilu, don’t worry . If what you said is true, Mankuai may not be attending Stein to learn . Avoid her as much as possible . She’s not a nice person . ” Xiao Mingluo stretches out his hand and musses up her hair . “You know Han Qilu’s personality . Don’t force his relationship with Chuxia . ”

“You think I don’t know this?” she asks incredulously . “Rest a.s.sured, I’m not thoughtless . But if she bullies Chuxia, I can’t guarantee I wouldn’t serve her something special . ”

Helplessly, he shakes his head . “But we’re closing in on finals . You need to start spending more time studying . ”
