I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 128: He Has an Extra Girlfriend
The taxi stopped in front of the train station. After getting out, Li Xu walked into the police station in front of the station.

Upon entering the reception room, I saw Yu Enxin sitting in a chair, accompanied by a female police officer in her late twenties.

"You're here!" Upon seeing Li Xu walk in, Yu Enxin immediately stood up with joy, looking as if she had seen a savior.

"You've finally arrived. Your girlfriend has been waiting here for ages, saying she wouldn't call you because she was afraid you'd worry," the policewoman said to Li Xu, standing up as well.

girlfriend?
Upon hearing this address, Li Xu was momentarily stunned and instinctively looked at Yu Enxin.

Yu Enxin looked at him with pleading eyes, as if to say, "Don't expose me."

Seeing this, Li Xu tacitly agreed and asked Yu Enxin, "How did you lose your wallet and phone?"

He heard on the phone that Yu Enxin had lost her wallet and phone and was at the police station, so he rushed over.

"I'm not quite sure either. When I got out of the taxi and paid the fare, my wallet and phone were still there, but as soon as I entered the station, they were gone," Yu Enxin said with a wronged expression, looking very helpless.

"Didn't you check the surveillance footage?" Li Xu continued.

“A policewoman accompanied me to the station’s surveillance room and found a man acting suspiciously. She said she would help me find him, but I don’t know when we will be able to,” Yu Enxin said.

"You're such an irresponsible boyfriend. How could you let your girlfriend take the bus home alone without even seeing her off?" At this moment, a male police officer walked over and said in a slightly lecturing tone.

Li Xu didn't refute this, but continued to ask Yu Enxin, "Is there anything important in your wallet?"

"There wasn't much money in my wallet, just over four hundred yuan. My ID card and bank cards were in there, and they got lost together. And my phone, which I bought for over two thousand yuan, was gone after less than two months," Yu Enxin said with heartache.

“It’s okay. If you lose your bank card, even a thief can’t withdraw money without knowing the PIN. The bank will be open tomorrow, and I’ll go with you to report it lost and get a replacement. I’ll also buy you a better phone,” Li Xu comforted Yu Enxin.

It's likely that Yu Enxin's lost wallet and phone will never be found.

There are probably hundreds of cases of people losing their bags or belongings at train stations every day, and the chances of finding them are extremely slim.

Expecting the police station to mobilize officers specifically to help with the search is almost impossible; it's more likely if you're a foreigner.

Li Xu turned to the policewoman and said, "Can we go now?"

"Okay, it's getting late, you should take your girlfriend home now," the policewoman said to Li Xu with a smile.

Li Xu carried Yu Enxin's small suitcase and walked out of the police station with her.

"I'm so sorry to trouble you, making you come all this way so late at night. I lost my wallet and phone, and the police told me to call my teacher or family. I don't want my family to know about this, and I don't want to trouble our counselor, so I had no choice but to ask you for help," Yu Enxin said to Li Xu with a hint of apology.

“It’s okay. You should have called me as soon as something happened. Aren’t we friends? You don’t need to be so formal with me,” Li Xu said with a smile.

Then he said, "It's getting late. How about I take you back to school first? We can go get a new bank card and buy a new phone tomorrow morning."

"I don't want to go back to school. Everyone in my dorm has gone home, and I'm all alone," Yu Enxin said softly.

"What should we do then? I'll find you a hotel for the night?" Li Xu asked Yu Enxin.

Yu Enxin lowered her head slightly and gave a barely audible "hmm".

"Let's go then." Li Xu smiled at her, dragged his suitcase toward the taxi stand, and Yu Enxin quickly followed him.

However, before they had gone far, a middle-aged woman approached Li Xu warmly and said, "Young man, do you need a place to stay? The price is very cheap."

"No need." Li Xu continued walking forward with Yu Enxin without stopping.

These small hotels that solicit customers at train stations are generally in very poor condition, and if you're unlucky, you might even encounter scammers.

"Young men, where are you going?" A middle-aged taxi driver greeted them as soon as they reached the taxi stand.

"Driver, do you know of any decent hotels around here that don't require registration? My girlfriend lost her wallet and her ID card, and we haven't had time to replace them yet," Li Xu asked the middle-aged driver.

Yu Enxin lost her ID card. Hotels rated three stars or higher have strict management, so she definitely can't go. For now, she can only find a small hotel to make do for the night.

"I know, I know. I've been driving here for over ten years. I know this area like the back of my hand. Please get in the car." The middle-aged driver greeted him warmly.

Hearing Li Xu refer to her as his girlfriend to outsiders, Yu Enxin felt a strange unease and secretly glanced at him.

Li Xu handed his small suitcase to the middle-aged driver, who put it in the trunk. Then he and Yu Enxin got into the taxi together.

The middle-aged driver was very talkative. After starting the car, he chatted with the two men while driving:

"The train station is crowded and dangerous, so you have to be careful. Keep a close eye on your bags and stuff, and don't flaunt your valuables. Did your girlfriend accidentally show off some money, which is why she was targeted by thieves?"

Although the driver was a bit talkative, what he said made a lot of sense. It's very likely that Yu Enxin accidentally exposed her wallet when she got out of the taxi to pay, which is how the thief targeted her.

Five or six minutes later, the taxi turned into a small alley and stopped in front of a small hotel. The middle-aged driver turned back to Li Xu and said, "This is it."

Li Xu paid the fare, got out of the car with Yu Enxin, took their suitcases from the trunk, and went into the small hotel.

The receptionist was a charming young woman in her early thirties who was watching TV on her computer. When she saw Li Xu and Yu Enxin walk in, she looked up and said, "Need accommodation?"

"How much is this room?" Li Xu asked.

"A standard room is 80 yuan a day, a double room is 100 yuan, and the deposit is 50 yuan," the middle-aged woman replied.

"I'll get a double room," Li Xu said, taking out his ID card and two hundred yuan bills from his wallet and handing them over.

The middle-aged woman glanced at Yu Enxin, didn't ask for her ID card, and checked in directly.

"Do you want a room on the third or fourth floor? The rooms on the fourth floor are bigger, but you have to climb one more floor. The rooms on the third floor are a little smaller."

"I'd like the one on the third floor," Li Xu said.

"Room 308." The middle-aged woman handed her ID card and room key to Li Xu.

After receiving the ID card and room key, Li Xu picked up his suitcase and walked towards the stairs with Yu Enxin.

"Be careful, don't fall!" He walked ahead and turned back to remind Yu Enxin.

This small hotel has no elevator, and the stairs are quite steep and dimly lit, so you have to be extra careful when walking.

Upon reaching the third floor and arriving at room 308, Li Xu swiped his card to open the door, walked in, and looked around.

The room was quite small, only about 15 square meters, and the facilities were rather old, even worse than the family-run guesthouse he had stayed in with Luo Jiahui before.

"You can stay here for the night," Li Xu said, turning to Yu Enxin.

"You don't live here?" Yu Enxin understood the implication in his words and couldn't help but pout.

"What, you're too scared to stay alone? Should I book another room next door?" Li Xu joked with a smile. "Or...you can stay here. The bed is big enough for both of us," Yu Enxin said shyly, blushing.
"You want me to live with you? Aren't you afraid I might lose control and do something to you?" Li Xu asked with a slightly mischievous smirk.

"I believe you." Yu Enxin glanced at Li Xu, paused, and then whispered, "I'm a little scared to sleep alone."

"Okay, then we'll work together tonight. If I really misbehave, you can kick me and kick me off the bed," Li Xu said jokingly.

If a girl is willing to say that, what does a grown man like him have to worry about?

Yu Enxin glanced at Li Xu somewhat embarrassedly, then remained silent, her face turning even redder.

"You haven't eaten dinner yet, have you? How about I take you to get something to eat?" Li Xu asked Yu Enxin, remembering something.

"I ate something this afternoon, so I'm not very hungry yet," Yu Enxin said softly.

"You ate this afternoon, and it's so late now, how can you not be hungry? Come on, I'll take you to get something to eat."

Li Xu took Yu Enxin away from the small hotel and found a nearby restaurant where he treated her to a meal.

After finishing his meal, he went to a supermarket and bought some snacks, drinks, and bottled water. He also bought a set of disposable bed sheets and duvet covers.

The sheets and blankets in these small hotels have been used by countless people, and there's no guarantee they'll be washed every time. It's more reassuring to buy a new set.

Back at the small hotel, Li Xu said to Yu Enxin, "Go take a shower first, I'll change the sheets and blankets."

"Oh!" Yu Enxin responded softly, opened her suitcase, took out toiletries and a change of clothes, and went into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. After changing the sheets and duvet cover, Li Xu took the remote control and turned on the TV.

However, instead of watching TV, he sat on the bed, took out his phone, and chatted with Luo Jiahui, asking about her situation.

About twenty minutes later, Yu Enxin finished her shower and came out of the bathroom wearing a cute plaid pajama set.

Her skin was already fair, but after taking a bath, it had an even more radiant, moist glow, making it appear even whiter and more delicate. Coupled with her charming and shy demeanor, she was extremely captivating.

Li Xu looked up, saw Yu Enxin's appearance, paused for a moment, then smiled and said to her, "Go to bed. If you're sleepy, just go to sleep. If you're not sleepy, watch some TV."

He noticed that girls in Jiangxi seemed to have very fair skin. Liu Xin's skin was very fair and tender, while Yu Enxin's skin seemed to be even better than Liu Xin's.

That's right, Yu Enxin and Liu Xin are both from Jiangxi, except one is from Xunyang and the other is from Hongcheng.

"I'll watch some TV." Yu Enxin went to the other side of the bed, gently pulled back the covers, and got into bed.

"Then you can watch TV. I'm going to take a shower too." Li Xu said, putting down his phone, taking off his coat and pants, and taking the newly bought bath towel to the bathroom.

Yu Enxin sat on the bed, idly flipping through channels with the remote control, but her gaze kept drifting towards the bathroom.

She thought she was having the worst day ever, and just as she was about to board the train, she discovered that her wallet, ticket, and phone were all gone.

Otherwise, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she should already be home by now.

But now, she vaguely felt that perhaps it was all God's arrangement. If this hadn't happened, she wouldn't have had the chance to share a room with Li Xu, let alone sleep in the same bed.

Li Xu took a quick shower, and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel about 10 minutes later.

Yu Enxin's gaze involuntarily fell on Li Xu's bare upper body and his well-defined abs. Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly looked away.

Li Xu walked to the desk, opened the bag containing snacks and drinks, and turned to ask Yu Enxin, "What would you like to drink, a beverage or mineral water?"

"I...I'll have a beverage." Yu Enxin paused for a moment before coming to her senses and said awkwardly, her voice still carrying a hint of panic.

Li Xu tossed a bottle of Gatorade to Yu Enxin, opened a bottle of mineral water for himself, and drank it down.

Yu Enxin turned on the Gatorade, took a small sip, looked at Li Xu, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "You're not going home tonight, won't your girlfriend worry?"

"She's working part-time as a model. She went to Shanghai for an auto show and won't be back for another couple of days," Li Xu said casually while drinking water.

Upon hearing that Luo Jiahui had left Jiangning for another place, Yu Enxin felt an indescribable joy welling up inside her.

She increasingly felt that all of this was arranged by God, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence?

After drinking the water, Li Xu went back to bed and picked up his phone to continue sending messages.

However, this time she wasn't chatting with Luo Jiahui, but with Xiao Yu.

Looking at the message Xiao Yu sent, Li Xu subconsciously glanced at Yu Enxin, who was watching TV absentmindedly beside him.

If Xiao Yu found out that he and her best friend had booked a hotel room together and slept in the same bed, I wonder what her reaction would be.

But somehow, it also feels a bit exciting.

After chatting with Xiao Yu for a while, Li Xu stopped talking, switched his phone to power saving mode, and realized he hadn't brought a charger and the battery was low, so he couldn't waste any more power.

The two watched TV together for a while, and when it got to 10 o'clock, Li Xu said to Yu Enxin, "It's getting late, why don't we go to bed early?"

"Okay," Yu Enxin replied softly, a hint of nervousness in her voice.

"Then I'll turn off the lights," Li Xu said, picking up the remote to turn off the TV, and then getting up to turn off the lights.

The lights went out, and the room was instantly plunged into darkness.

Li Xu groped his way back to bed in the dark, lifted the covers and lay down, saying to Yu Enxin, who was still sitting on the bed, "You should lie down and sleep too."

Yu Enxin glanced at Li Xu in the darkness, felt her heart beating a little fast, and lay down on the bed as well.

The two deliberately kept their distance, each sleeping on one side, but the room was still filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.

After a while, Yu Enxin whispered to Li Xu, "Are you asleep?"

"Not yet, can't you sleep?" Li Xu said with his back to Yu Enxin.

This was the first time he had shared a bed with another girl besides Luo Jiahui, and it would be impossible for him not to feel any attraction.

But when he thought that Yu Enxin was Xiao Yu's best friend, he suppressed the impulse in his heart.

His relationship with Xiao Yu had just returned to normal. If she found out that he and Xiao Yu had gotten together with her best friend again, then their relationship would definitely be over.
