Ultimate: Fishing Through the Heavens, Starting with Five Enlightenment Templates

Han took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing the chaotic thoughts in her mind.

After recovering, she immediately remembered the purpose of her trip.

She turned her head, her gaze returning to Xia Tian, ​​her voice regaining its usual coolness:

"Don't you have a room available for rent in the summer? Which room specifically? I'd like to go and see if it's suitable."

[155] Her eyes were only for him!

"rent?".

Upon hearing this, Xiong Ge frowned deeply.

When will you have a room in your house available for rent?

How could the lady of the house not know?

Summer's expression changed drastically, and cold sweat instantly broke out.

The words he blurted out in his haste have now been exposed by Han in public.

My mom has no idea about this, this is absolutely terrible!

"Han, wait for me a moment, just a little while!"

Summer hurriedly forced a smile at Han that looked more like a grimace.

He immediately grabbed his mother's arm and dragged her into the kitchen without saying a word.

"Mom, let's go inside and talk!"

Upon seeing this, Han's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a hint of confusion and doubt flashed in her eyes.

It's just renting a house, I don't understand why they have to discuss it secretly.

Lan Tianyu seemed to be deep in thought. Of course, he remembered that in the original work, it was Han who rented the training room.

But now, that place has been rented to him.

Summer probably lied in a moment of desperation to please Han.

But how do we reconcile this now?

Judging from his expression, could he really be stupid enough to give up his room?

Hard to say!

Given Xia Tian's naive and somewhat silly personality, she might actually do it.

Lan Tianyu shook his head, finding it both funny and speechless.

He stopped thinking about it and walked to the sofa in the living room, where he casually sat down.

Han's gaze lingered on Lan Tianyu for a moment, then, as if possessed, she walked over and sat down on the single sofa next to him.

There was a slight distance between them, and a somewhat awkward silence filled the air.

Lan Tianyu didn't seem uncomfortable at all. He picked up the remote control from the coffee table and casually asked, "Want to watch TV?"

This was purely a polite way of breaking the silence.

Han pursed her cherry lips, her long eyelashes trembled, and she whispered:

"Open it if you want to see it."

At this moment, though she had a thousand words in her heart, she didn't know how to begin.

After all, the two had only met twice and were not familiar with each other at all, and the first time they had a rather unpleasant experience.

Lan Tianyu shrugged indifferently and pressed the remote control switch.

"Then just browse around and kill some time."

The television screen lit up, and the sound of a program filled the quiet of the living room for a moment.

In the kitchen.

Xiong Ge stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the kitchen counter, his eyes sharp as knives, coldly staring at Xia Tian, ​​who was shrinking back with a guilty look on her face.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

"We don't have any empty rooms for rent in our house. Why did you lie to that Han?"

Summer wore a pained expression, her voice pleading:

"Mom, I didn't mean to."

"Yesterday, Han actually saved my dad and me from a group of debt collectors."

"Seriously speaking, he is our savior."

"Today I met Han Shi. She was kicked out by her landlord and had nowhere to live, so she was homeless..."

“I really didn’t want to see her like that. She just blurted out that we had a spare room without thinking about the consequences.”

"Didn't you think about the consequences?"

Xiong Ge was so angry he almost jumped up, pointing his finger at Xia Tian's forehead.

"Summer, oh Summer, can't you use your brain before you lie?"

"Now that people want to see a house, what do you show them?"

"The practice room has been rented to Tianyu. Are you going to give up your own room?"

Summer felt her thoughts exposed, and she suddenly looked up, her eyes lighting up as if she had grasped a lifeline:

"Mom, that's what I'm thinking. I'll let Han stay in my room."

“I can squeeze in with my older brother. If that doesn’t work, I can sleep on the sofa or even on the floor.”

"I'm healthy, no problem!"

He spoke with such seriousness, as if it were a matter of course.

Upon hearing these words, Xiong Ge felt a surge of anger rising to the top of his head.

She grabbed Xia Tian's ear and twisted it hard in anger.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Mom, be gentle!"

Xiong Ge was exasperated, and his voice rose a notch with anger.

"How could you even think of that? You'd rather suffer yourself than let that girl you've only known for two days have your way?"

"Summer, are you stupid?"

"Besides the guitar, is this coldness all you have on your mind right now?"

Summer was in excruciating pain, but she still endured it, grinning foolishly with an unusually determined look in her eyes.

"Mom, I'm willing to endure any hardship for Han!"

"Really, please say yes!"

Xiong Ge looked into his son's eyes and saw the undisguised, almost foolish persistence and pleading.

The hand that was gripping his ear loosened its grip without him even realizing it.

The anger in his heart deflated like a punctured balloon, releasing most of it instantly.

···Requesting flowers···· ·····

All that remains is a deep sense of helplessness and an indescribable feeling of powerlessness.

She sighed deeply, rubbing her throbbing temples, and for a moment she really couldn't make up her mind.

Of course, her truest thought was to refuse.

A girl of unknown origin moving into the Xia family is simply asking for trouble.

Moreover, Xia Tian is clearly deeply involved. If they lived under the same roof, wouldn't they be putting on a show of being crazy in love every day?

What about my studies?

What about safety?

But looking at Xia Tian's expectant, even pitiful eyes, Xiong Ge couldn't bring himself to refuse her immediately.

She knew her son's personality; he was very stubborn.

Once someone has made up their mind, nothing can change it.

. ..... ...

If we firmly refuse now, who knows what even more outrageous things he might do.

Just as Xiong Ge was caught in a dilemma, the sound of a door opening and a commotion came from the living room.

"Xiong, we're back!"

Ye Siren's slightly ingratiating voice rang out.

"Darling, little brother, come out quickly, there's lots of delicious food!" Xia Mei's excited voice followed closely behind.

It turned out that Ye Siren had returned with Xia Yu and Xia Mei, carrying large and small bags of takeout food printed with various restaurant logos.

The enticing aroma of food instantly filled the entire living room.

Xiong Ge, who was just looking for a way to back down, immediately seized the opportunity and said:

"Alright, we'll talk about this later, let's eat first!"

She waved her hand as if to shake off all her troubles, and pushed Xia Tian out of the kitchen.

Although Xia Tian didn't get a definite answer, her mother didn't explicitly refuse, which meant there was still room for negotiation.

He rubbed his reddened ears, a smile returning to his face, and followed Xiong Ge out of the kitchen.

However, as summer walked out of the kitchen, his gaze unconsciously drifted towards the living room.

Han was sitting quietly on the sofa next to Lan Tianyu.

Although they didn't talk, her gaze kept glancing at Lan Tianyu, who was watching TV next to her.

There was inquiry, curiosity, and even a hint of attention that she herself was unaware of.

That look in his eyes—Xia Tian was all too familiar with it.

Because that's the look he always gives Han when he sees him.

Because you care, your gaze will unconsciously follow them, and you will pay attention to their every move.

[156] You two are such a perfect match!

Because they care, their eyes will unconsciously follow the other person, and they will pay attention to the other person's every move.

Could it be that Han has some feelings for Brother Lan?

This idea struck Xia Tian like a bolt from the blue.

He felt a buzzing in his head, and his heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an icy hand.

A surge of bitterness welled up inside him, causing him to stand frozen in place, his face deathly pale.

"Hey, Xia Tian, ​​what are you standing there in the kitchen doorway for? You're blocking the way!"

Xia Yu was about to go into the kitchen to get some bowls and chopsticks when he saw his younger brother blocking the doorway, looking lost and dejected. He gave him a strange nudge.

Upon hearing this, Xia Tian snapped back to reality, leaping back like a startled rabbit, and hurriedly lowered her head to hide her embarrassment.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about something and didn't notice..."

His voice was hoarse, and his heart was still pounding.

The scene that "183" had just witnessed was etched into his mind like a brand.

Xia Yu was also emotionally clueless, so he didn't notice Xia Tian's disappointment and went straight into the kitchen.

In the living room.

Ye Siren and Xia Mei had already placed several bulging takeout bags with the restaurant's logo on the dining table.

Ye Siren spotted Lan Tianyu on the sofa at a glance, and his face immediately filled with a grateful smile.
