Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 724 Information Sharing Error
Damn it… Lu Yuanqiu gave an awkward laugh and decided to leave immediately.

But he couldn't leave. Ruan Yueru and Li Bowen squeezed him into the corner of the sofa, and Lu Yuanqiu couldn't even get up.

"I'll come find you after Li Bowen leaves, don't rush," Lu Yuanqiu whispered to his phone in his pocket.

There were people right next to him, so he didn't dare to speak loudly, but Cao Shuang should be able to hear him.

Ruan Yueru and Li Bowen were flipping through the test papers, the pages rustling as they turned. Lu Yuanqiu looked at the questions on the paper as if they were gibberish. Ruan Yueru turned to him and smiled, "I almost forgot that Brother Qiu got into Zhuhai University."

"It's alright, I've almost forgotten that I got in on my own merit..." Lu Yuanqiu responded with a smile, but his expression revealed bitterness.

Aunt Ruan, please come back soon.

The following process was agonizing. Lu Yuanqiu could only respond to each of Ruan Yueru and Li Bowen's questions with the excuse, "Huh? I've never seen this question before."

He guessed that Cao Shuang was laughing his head off on the other end of the phone.

Lu Yuanqiu was absolutely furious that Cao Shuang didn't call him "father."

Half an hour later, Lu Yuanqiu couldn't stand it any longer. Since nothing was going to happen between the two of them anyway, he took out his phone and pretended to be Bai Qingxia, sending her a message.

"Bai Qingxia sent it to me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yuanqiu froze in shock.

The name displayed on the phone call screen is... Bai Qingxia?!
What about Lao Tzu's Cao Shuang?

The call I just made wasn't to Cao Shuang?
Damn it, I spent tens of minutes on the phone, and it was all for nothing!
...The problem is that Bai Qingxia actually talked to him on the phone for several tens of minutes without saying a word, which is ridiculous. Lu Yuanqiu thought it was a tacit understanding between Cao Shuang and him. It turns out that Cao Shuang was already anxiously waiting next door, without getting any news at all?

"What's wrong with Senior Bai?" Ruan Yueru turned her head.

Li Bowen interjected, "Senior Bai must be getting impatient after her shower, hehe."

"..." Lu Yuanqiu's expression froze, and he hung up the phone immediately.

He cleared his throat, stood up, and said, "Bai Qingxia called me, so I'll head back now. Good luck on your exam tomorrow!"

Ruan Yueru nodded: "Okay, Qiu-ge, which room are you in?"

"2203, but I guess we won't be able to meet. I'll leave after my birthday party tomorrow night."

"OK then."

Ruan Yueru escorted Lu Yuanqiu to the door. Seeing that she was about to follow her out, Lu Yuanqiu quickly raised her hand to hold the door open, saying, "Don't see me off, don't see me off. Go back to your studies."

"Okay, Qiu-ge, take care."

As Ruan Yueru finished speaking and was about to close the door, Lu Yuanqiu pressed it again, this time whispering, "Let Li Bowen leave early too. It's not good for him to be here; he's affecting your studies."

Ruan Yueru was taken aback for a moment, then nodded vigorously, it was unclear whether she had actually heard him.

After observing, Lu Yuanqiu felt that Ruan Yueru only regarded Li Bowen as a friend, or rather, a bad friend.

He then lowered his head and sent Bai Qingxia an ellipsis.

Lu Yuanqiu: ...

Bai Qingxia: I know the physics question that Xiaoyueyue asked you.

Lu Yuanqiu: What are you so smug about?
Lu Yuanqiu: Have you finished showering?

Bai Qingxia: Guess what? [rests chin on hand]

I guess? I guess he's already all clean and ready to be laid out in bed, waiting for me to take him.

Lu Yuanqiu gently knocked on the door of 2317. The door opened quickly, revealing Cao Shuang's face, which was almost berserk.

"What exactly is going on?"

Inside the room, Cao Shuang followed Lu Yuanqiu around like a madman, pressing him for answers. Lu Yuanqiu turned around and sighed helplessly.

"When I came in, I secretly called you from my pocket, but it turned out I was calling Bai Qingxia. Bai Qingxia eavesdropped for several tens of minutes to gather information for you."

Cao Shuang: "?" "So...so what's going on next door?"

Lu Yuanqiu slumped on the sofa, never wanting to look at high school questions again in his life.

He described it simply: "The situation was that the two of them just sat together studying and exchanging questions, but they didn't do anything else."

"Study my ass! We don't even know if Li Bowen can get into my school!"

"Keep your voice down."

Cao Shuang covered her mouth, then let out a long sigh, slumped onto the bed, let out a hysterical scream, and looked utterly hopeless.

Lu Yuanqiu had never seen Cao Shuang so conflicted.

He seems to have fallen ill, with a disease that would kill him if he couldn't see Xiaoyueyue.

Lu Yuanqiu glanced at him: "How long has it been since you last saw her?"

"A semester has passed."

"Poor thing, if I don't see Bai Qingxia for a semester, I might turn into a zombie."

Cao Shuang let out a pig-like grunt on the bed and weakly turned over.

Lu Yuanqiu stood up: "We'll proceed with tomorrow's plan as usual. I'll head back now."

"I'm so envious of you, Qiu-ge," Cao Shuang called out from behind.

Lu Yuanqiu turned around, his expression serious: "I envy myself too."

Cao Shuang: "...Zhuo".

Go back downstairs to room 2203.

Lu Yuanqiu knocked on the door, and sent a message to Bai Qingxia as he went downstairs.

The door was opened a crack from the inside, revealing half of Bai Qingxia's face through the gap, along with a suspended iron chain... "Wow, she's quite vigilant. I hope she's not guarding against me," Lu Yuanqiu thought with an innocent smile.

After removing the chains, Bai Qingxia opened the door. She had changed into a beige nightgown that went past her knees, wearing the hotel slippers. Her hair was still a little damp. As soon as Lu Yuanqiu got closer, he smelled a fragrant scent, unsure whether it was from shower gel or shampoo.

"I'm hungry." Bai Qingxia looked up at him, her hands covering her stomach.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Shall we go downstairs to eat? Or should I buy it back?"

"Buy it back."

Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the bathroom. Bai Qingxia's clothes were still faintly visible on the sink. He was just about to take a shower, but since Bai Qingxia was hungry... let's eat first.

At 6:30 p.m., the two sat around the table in the room eating clam rice noodles.

Bai Qingxia: "Was that call originally meant for Cao Shuang?"

"Yes, I just rummaged through my pocket for my contacts. Your first letters are B and C, and they're next to each other."

Bai Qingxia had already guessed the purpose of Lu Yuanqiu's call. In fact, she realized she couldn't speak after dialing the number, but at first she thought Lu Yuanqiu was going to share "intelligence" with her.

As Lu Yuanqiu slurped up the clam rice noodles, he recalled the jokes Li Bowen had made in the room. Bai Qingxia must have heard them too, no, she definitely had.

"Are you full?"

Despite saying she was hungry, Bai Qingxia only ate half of what she had eaten and left it there. She nodded, got up, and walked towards the bathroom: "I'm going to wash up again."

Lu Yuanqiu looked up and, through the reflection of the full-length mirror in the entryway, suddenly saw Bai Qingxia enter the bathroom and immediately pick up her clothes from the sink, stand on tiptoe, and put them back on the high shelf where there was space left after removing the bath towel.

"You idiot, you need to stand on tiptoe for that spot, but it's actually easier for me to smell it when I look up..." Lu Yuanqiu sneered inwardly.

The sound of Bai Qingxia brushing her teeth came from the bathroom. Lu Yuanqiu put away the trash and prepared to take a shower.
