If you cut in, you will get hit. Do you call this a driving school instructor?

"What?"

In his daze, Gu Yin thought he had misheard. At that moment, he would rather believe that he was just dreaming than believe that what he heard was real.

Because it was on speakerphone, Gu Yin glanced at the time; it was only a little past 6:50 in the morning, almost 7:00.

The message was sent around 2 or 3 a.m. last night, and at 7 p.m., a female celebrity "dropped in" at his house?
Is she someone who can be parachuted into the entire country at any time?
Is it really that punctual?

"Are you kidding me?" Gu Yin, who had just woken up, had a slightly hoarse voice. She grabbed a glass of water from the bedside table, took a sip, and then asked, "Weren't you busy with work? Weren't you not in town today? What are you doing downstairs at my place?"

"Just passing by!" The stubborn female celebrity on the other end of the phone emphasized this point, then said with a hint of helplessness, "Why don't you go out and take a look?"

"I'm not feeling well, I can't get up..." Gu Yin said in a defiant tone, still lying in bed.

"You..." The female celebrity on the other end of the phone was furious and gritted her teeth: "You have no conscience! If you keep this up, I'm leaving!"

"Okay, okay..."

Gu Yin had actually been getting out of bed and putting on slippers earlier, and as she spoke, she pushed open the door and walked towards the balcony.

It was early, but the house was already filled with the aroma of cooking. Gu's mother had steamed zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) because her precious daughter, who was about to take the college entrance exam, said she wanted to eat them. And, of course, she wanted sweet zongzi!
Sweet rice dumplings are the best!

How can you eat salty zongzi?

Don't tell me you can eat salty ones. I can eat sweet rice dumplings with sugar without saying a word. If you're so capable, try dipping your salty rice dumplings in salt!

It's so sweet it's unbeatable!!!
"Pattering..."

It was still drizzling outside the window. When Gu Yin came back yesterday afternoon, it was pouring rain. She thought it was just a shower and would stop soon, but it was still drizzling now.

Upon reaching the balcony and pulling back the screen window to look outside, Gu Yin didn't see Xia Qianyi and asked foolishly, "Where are you?"

"...I'm in the car!" the female celebrity rolled her eyes and said, "It's raining, do you expect me to wait for you outside?"

"Tsk..."

Gu Yin clicked his tongue and said sarcastically:
"In those TV dramas, they always say you can see it just by opening the window, right? Your storyline is different..."

"...You're a grown man, you haven't been brainwashed by idol dramas, have you?" the female celebrity on the other end of the phone couldn't help but complain. "Besides, shouldn't the guy be standing downstairs in those kinds of scenes? I'm already being very kind by coming here, okay? Do you know I stayed up all night..."

She seemed to harbor a lot of resentment, and as she spoke, she seemed about to say more, but then, realizing she had gone too far, she quickly stopped pouring out her heart and instead said:
"I'm already downstairs at your building, aren't you going to come down?"

"I'm just afraid of infecting you..." Gu Yin said, but she had already hurried to the entrance to put on her shoes and coat. On her way back to the room, she didn't forget to grab an N95 mask. Damn, she still hadn't finished using the masks she had stockpiled over the past two years, that's ridiculous...

Downstairs, at the stairwell, Gu Yin hurried down the stairs and finally saw a familiar figure at the corner on the first floor.

With her white dress, flowing hair, tall figure, and exquisite face, to be honest, it felt a little out of place for such a stunning beauty to appear in Gu Yin's somewhat old resettlement house, which had stairs but no elevator.

"How did you get here?" Gu Yin handed her a box of yogurt from home, and seeing that she was dressed lightly, he took off his own coat and pretended to put it on her.

"Mengmeng brought me here," Xia Qianyi said naturally as she took Gu Yin's coat, sniffed it, then made a disgusted expression before throwing it back to Gu Yin.

"Take it or leave it..." Gu Yin rolled her eyes and casually said, "Now you know the benefits of being able to drive, right?"

This way, when you go out alone to do something that's not something you can be seen doing in public, you can just go whenever you want without having to bother someone to drive you.

"Who told you not to teach properly!" Xia Qianyi said shamelessly, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"

"Hey, you woman, you *&%￥#@..."

The two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, started bickering again.

"No, didn't you say you were going to the Jiangnan area today? Why did you suddenly come here?" Gu Yin asked after the laughter and banter.

"It's all because of you..." Xia Qianyi pouted and muttered under her breath, her eyes filled with resentment. Then she shook her head and made an excuse, saying, "I was traveling from Beijing, but my flight was delayed because of the rain, so I had my assistant drive me there. I happened to pass by here and saw someone's message, so I turned around to visit you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Qianyi pursed her lips, put on a very smug look, and smiled, "Touched, aren't you? I came as soon as I got your message last night. You may not have said it, but you must have been incredibly touched inside, right?"

Gu Yin chuckled upon hearing this...

He glanced down at Xia Qianyi's empty hands and said, "You come to visit a patient empty-handed?"

Is he still a mountain dweller?
Don't you even know the rules?
You're completely clueless about social etiquette!

Xia Qianyi was taken aback upon hearing this...

Immediately, the corners of his handsome mouth began to twitch wildly!
She grabbed the umbrella she was carrying and, gritting her teeth, started slapping it at Gu Yin while saying all sorts of things:

"You have no conscience! You have no conscience! You really have no conscience!"

"You should be grateful I even showed up, and you still want a gift?!"

"Should I get you a fruit basket?! Huh!?"

On a rainy day, two people were playfully bickering in the stairwell. Their noise, mixed with the sound of the rain, wasn't exactly noisy, but rather inexplicably warm and cozy.

If you're not familiar with someone, you really shouldn't act like that.

moment……

"Ding-dong..."

Xia Qianyi's phone rang in her pocket.

Frowning, Xia Qianyi took her phone out of her bag. Without listening to what the other person was saying, she immediately said:
"I'll be going out in a bit, wait for me at the entrance of the residential area."

After saying that, she hung up the phone immediately.

Gu Yin, who was initially somewhat touched by Xia Qianyi's arrival, suddenly felt dejected after listening to her phone call...

"Are you leaving soon?" he asked.

"Hmm..." Xia Qianyi nodded reluctantly: "I'll probably be busy until the end of summer vacation."

Her schedule is already full, she definitely won't have time to come back.

"That's it..."

Gu Yin nodded silently and said:

"You don't need to worry about the driving school, I'll take care of it. You just focus on your work."

Hearing this, Xia Qianyi almost laughed in anger, thinking to herself, "Am I telling you about the driving school?"
"You're so clueless about romance..." Xia Qianyi rolled her eyes at him, implying, "You deserve to be single forever!"

After venting her frustrations, and perhaps because time was running out, Xia Qianyi took out a small gift box from her bag and handed it to Gu Yin.

"Oh?" Gu Yin's eyes lit up when she saw the small gift box: "Well, I didn't come empty-handed, did I?"

He was still somewhat hopeful, but Xia Qianyi retorted, "It's not for you, it's for your sister. She's about to take the college entrance exam, so tell her to focus on her studies, do you hear me?"

"Ugh..." This time it was Gu Yin's turn to roll his eyes. He muttered, "So it really is all about her..."

It's one thing for Gu's mother to center her life around Gu Yue, but Xia Qianyi only cares about Gu Yue when buying gifts. Do you girls really understand other girls like this?!
“Of course,” Xia Qianyi chuckled, then retorted, “Are you more important than someone taking the college entrance exam?”

"Well……"

Mentioning this, Gu Yin suddenly thought of something and suggested:

"She mentioned to me a few days ago that she wanted to make a video to support students taking the college entrance exam, and said she wanted you to record a segment for her..."

Gu Yin knew how to "hint." He pretended to be casual and didn't make any explicit requests to Xia Qianyi. To put it bluntly, he was asking her if she wanted him to help record something.

We can't force someone to do something they don't want to do, can we?
Xia Qianyi: "(￢_￢) Shoot"

“Record, record, record,” Xia Qianyi rolled her eyes, “I’ll send it to you later.”

"Oh, if you're too busy, that's fine. Her thing isn't important..." Gu Yin started being insincerely polite again.

"Then we won't record it!" Xia Qianyi gritted her teeth.

"Oh, it's okay if you don't want to record, I'll do whatever you say..." Gu Yin said cheekily.

The two chatted for a little while longer...

"I'm leaving."

Finally, there was no more conversation to keep Xia Qianyi occupied, and her phone rang again, seemingly urging her to hurry up.

"Okay." Gu Yin nodded, opened the umbrella for her, and watched her walk out of the building with the umbrella.

Xia Qianyi stood at the stairwell entrance, holding an umbrella and waving to Gu Yin, seemingly wanting to say something, but in the end, all those words turned into: "Remember to take your medicine and get more rest. Don't be so fragile all the time, making people worry about you..."

"Okay, okay~" Gu Yin's lips twitched: "You're the one who's fragile!"

Xia Qianyi smiled slightly: "Let's go."

After saying that, the female celebrity turned around, and her slender figure under the umbrella gradually disappeared into the distance.

Damn it, I don't know why, but right now Gu Yin has a strange feeling of "reluctance" in her heart.

As the female celebrity's figure was about to disappear around the corner, Gu Yin hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and rushed out into the rain...

"Hey!"

From afar, Xia Qianyi heard Gu Yin's shout. The moment she stopped and turned around, she felt a figure exuding masculine energy rush over and pull her into his arms.

Xia Qianyi was stunned at that moment.

Her heart was pounding wildly, and her pretty face turned bright red almost visibly. She thought to herself, "What's wrong with this guy? How did he suddenly become so insightful?!"
what the hell!

This is so sudden!!!

Just as Xia Qianyi subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to respond to him, the female celebrity felt as if something was being placed on her shoulder...

Before Xia Qianyi could react, Gu Yin suddenly got up from her, then grabbed the collar of a coat and pulled it over her shoulders, draping his makeshift coat over himself.

“You’re dressed too lightly,” Gu Yin said. “Alright, it’s alright now, let’s go.”

"..."

The silence in the air at that moment was deafening.

"Pattering..."

Raindrops continued to fall from the sky, even and moist, but Xia Qianyi's gaze toward Gu Yin grew increasingly angry!
He absolutely wants to have sex!
……

"hiss……"

Back home, Gu Yin immediately took off her Crocs and looked down. Damn, her soles seemed a little swollen. That woman was so inconsiderate! She had kindly covered her with a coat to keep her warm, and instead, the woman had stomped on her own foot and stormed off in a huff...

It’s really a good idea to treat it like a donkey’s liver and lungs!
In the living room, Gu's mother brought zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) to the table. Seeing Gu Yin, who had just returned from the entryway, she couldn't help but ask, "Where did you go?"

"Where else could you have gone?" Gu Yue, who had just gotten up and was brushing her teeth, said sarcastically, "You went off to flirt with other women, of course."

"...Gu Yue, if you say another sarcastic thing to me, you can forget about going on vacation after your college entrance exam!" Gu Yin gritted her teeth.

Hearing this, Gu Yue stopped talking. The little girl had sharp eyes; she immediately noticed a gift box that looked like cosmetics in Gu Yin's hand and asked curiously, "What's this?"

"Feed the dogs!" Gu Yin rolled her eyes and tossed it aside.

Later, unable to resist Gu Yue's persistent questioning, he finally told her about Xia Qianyi's visit. The innocent girls' high school was also a snob; she was overjoyed to hear that it was Xia Qianyi who gave it to her. Gu Yin then told her that Xia Qianyi had agreed to record a support video for her, which immediately made Gu Yue beam with delight, exclaiming that her brother was the best!

"Not being sarcastic anymore?" Gu Yin laughed heartily.

"Have I ever been sarcastic or sarcastic?" Gu Yue executed a classic face-changing remark: "How could I be sarcastic or sarcastic towards my brother?"

She knew all too well whether Xia Qianyi would send her the support video or not; it all depended on Gu Yin's mood. Gu Yin had always been against these kinds of things, and like her mother, she believed that Xia Qianyi should focus on her studies at this stage.

"Ahem..." Gu Yin coughed and glanced at the zongzi on the table: "The skin of this zongzi is a bit hard to peel off, and it'll make your hands sticky..."

"I'll do it!" Gu Yue immediately ran to peel the zongzi.

"Oh dear, I haven't even had a sip of water this early in the morning, my mouth is so dry," Gu Yin said again.

"I'll go get you some water!" Gu Yue, being sensible, immediately ran to get some water.

Early in the morning, the brother and sister acted like they were in a play, making their mother laugh heartily.

"Gu Yue, hurry up and eat. It's raining today, so I'll have your brother take you there," said Gu's mother.

"Mmm." In a good mood, Gu Yue ate more than half a zongzi in one bite, her cheeks bulging.

"My dear mother, I have a cold..." Gu Yin couldn't help but play the victim.

"...Then you shouldn't go. Your mother put on a raincoat, rode her electric bike in the rain, and limped to deliver it." Gu's mother also started to play the victim.

"...Fine, I'll go!" Gu Yin was punished on the spot.

After dinner, Gu Yin hung up the camera on the "Reconciling with Life" program, connected it for the daily check-in, and then took Gu Yue downstairs.

I was planning to drive, but as soon as I went downstairs, the rain stopped!
Gu Yue's mischievous eyes quickly spotted the motorcycle parked not far away...

"Brother, brother!" she patted Gu Yin's shoulder suggestively.

The innocent high school girl, Gu Yue, had no idea that taking this motorcycle out today would easily cause trouble!
