It's 11:30 p.m.

The arrival gate at Daxing Airport.

Lin Wanwan was wearing a black baseball cap, a mask, and sunglasses, completely covering her face.

Su Man followed behind her, dragging a small suitcase, and kept her voice down as she walked.

"Grandma, slow down."

"The paparazzi are all eager to get your scoops. What if you get photographed if you go back to Beijing now?"

Lin Wanwan remained silent.

She held her phone, the screen still showing the video of Chen Zhi's press conference.

In the video, Chen Zhi is wearing a suit and standing on the stage with a cane.

The entire internet is praising him.

A 19-year-old genius CEO.

Founder of Deep Space Technology.

A press conference completely crushed Baidu.

The barrage of comments was dense.

"Mr. Chen is awesome!"

"Godfather!"

"This is truly a shining example of domestically developed technology!"

Lin Wanwan felt a mix of bitterness and pride as she looked at the comments.

She knew Chen Zhi was intelligent from a young age.

But she never expected that the boy who had always fought with her for spicy snacks, tricked her into doing her homework, and asked her to go out and play every day had already reached such a high position.

But the thought of Chen Zhi's joking and carefree attitude in the videos every day for the past two weeks, saying that he "can run on the ground soon," makes her furious.

fraud.

Big liar.

Even with his leg so badly injured, he still kept it a secret from her.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Su Man sighed again.

"Wanwan, you're going over there now without telling him beforehand?"

Lin Wanwan turned off her phone.

"I won't tell."

Why?

"Isn't he very good at lying?"

Lin Wanwan's voice was muffled, "I'll lie to him this once too."

Su Man paused for two seconds, then couldn't help but remind her.

"Have you thought this through? It might not be convenient for Chen Zhi to be around right now."

Lin Wanwan paused in her steps.

She turned her head.

"Sister Su Man, what do you mean?"

Su Man coughed lightly.

"I didn't mean anything, it's just that... he's just been discharged from the hospital, so he probably has an assistant, staff, and caregiver with him."

Lin Wanwan stared at her.

"Do you know something?"

"I have no idea."

Su Man immediately denied it, saying, "I was just giving a normal reminder as an adult."

Lin Wanwan didn't ask any more questions, pulled up her mask, and continued walking out.

"I don't care."

"He lied to me about being injured, so I have to see it with my own eyes."

"After I've read it, I'll decide how to punish him."

Su Man knows Lin Wanwan too well.

This girl is a cool and sweet new generation singer in public, and even a smile in front of the camera can make fans scream.

But when he encounters Chen Zhi, his IQ drops completely.

It was described as punishment.

He'll most likely end up crying while hugging someone.

Outside the airport, a pre-arranged business vehicle was parked on the side of the road.

After the two got into the car, Su Man gave them the address.

"Wanliu Academy".

The driver nodded and started the car.

Lin Wanwan sat in the back row and looked down to open Chen Zhi's video again.

In the video, Chen Zhi leans on the podium, speaking in a relaxed tone.

"From today onwards, the smartphones in your hands will all become antiques."

As Lin Wanwan watched, she felt both proud and angry.

She sniffed.

"Sister Su Man."

"Um?"

"How long did he stand there?"

Su Man opened her tablet and checked the replay of the press conference.

"About an hour."

Lin Wanwan bit her lower lip.

"Didn't the doctor say he shouldn't stand for long periods?"

"Theoretically, yes."

"So he's still standing?"

You know your boyfriend's character better than I do.

Lin Wanwan had no way to refute it.

Chen Zhi has been like this since he was a child.

They tend to stubbornly persevere, especially in critical moments.

Even as a child, I was like a little adult, keeping everything to myself and never telling myself or the adults.

Now that they're older, it's even more outrageous.

Even with a broken leg, he still went to hold a press conference.

Lin Wanwan grew angrier the more she thought about it, and opened her chat window with Chen Zhi.

[He has obediently lay down, so the organization can rest assured.]

It was followed by a meme of a puppy saluting.

Lin Wanwan stared at the line of text, her finger hovering over the input box for a long time.

Not a single word was sent.

She wanted to personally check on the staff.

……

Wanliu Academy

After finishing the last sip of bone broth, Chen Zhi let out a satisfied burp.

Li Zhiyi took out a tissue and wiped the soup off his chin, then picked up the white porcelain bowl to go to the kitchen to wash it.

"Zhiyi, wait a minute," Chen Zhi called out to her.

Li Zhiyi stopped and turned around: "What's wrong? Do you want more? There's still some in the pot."

"No, this cast is too tight. It's stuffy and itchy inside, all sweaty." Chen Zhi pointed to his left leg, which was hanging in mid-air, with a pitiful expression. "Could you loosen it a little so I can let it breathe?"

Li Zhiyi put down her bowl and walked to the sofa.

After showering today, she changed into one of Chen Zhi's gray hooded sweatshirts as loungewear. The sweatshirt was too big for her; the hem covered her thighs, and the neckline hung loosely on her shoulders.

She knelt on the edge of the sofa, getting close to the leg that was in a heavy cast.

"The doctor said I can't move it around, what if the bones get dislocated?" Li Zhiyi hesitated.

"It's okay, just loosen the bandage a little. I'm so hot, really," Chen Zhi continued, trying to sound pitiful.

Having no other choice, Li Zhiyi carefully unwrapped the outermost bandage, extended two fingers, and gently scratched the plaster cast.

"Here?" she asked, tilting her head back.

Looking down from Chen Zhi's angle, the wide neckline was slightly open, revealing a dazzling expanse of white skin and delicate collarbones.

"Move a little to the left." His voice was a little hoarse.

Li Zhiyi moved even closer, her warm breath brushing against Chen Zhi's calves.

She carefully wiped away the sweat from the edges of his leg, and her gaze followed the plaster cast upwards, where she saw large, shocking bruises on Chen Zhi's thigh.

Li Zhiyi's hand stopped.

"Why are you crying again?" Chen Zhi sighed, reaching out to pinch her cheek. "You've really turned into a little kitten."

"How did you get this done?" Li Zhiyi's voice trembled, and a tear fell onto Chen Zhi's hand. "Can a young man like you get injured like this while riding a ghost fire? Are you hiding something from me?"

Chen Zhi's heart skipped a beat.

Although this girl is usually gentle and mild-mannered, she is very perceptive and probably noticed something was wrong a long time ago.

"I'm not lying to you." Chen Zhi wiped away her tears with his thumb. "Don't overthink it. I'm so happy to have you taking such good care of me every day."

Li Zhiyi sniffed.

The evening news was still playing on TV. The TV was mainly used to create atmosphere, and the two of them didn't care what was on TV.

The two were getting closer and closer.

Li Zhiyi's eyelashes trembled, she slowly closed her eyes, her breathing became a little rapid, and a blush rose on her cheeks.

Chen Zhi lowered his head and brought his lips close to those two soft lips.

At this critical moment.

"Ding-dong~".

Suddenly, a doorbell rang from the entrance hall.

Li Zhiyi opened her eyes, quickly pushed Chen Zhi away, stood up from the sofa, and hurriedly straightened the hem of her oversized hoodie.

"Who is it?" Li Zhiyi turned her head, looking at the entryway with some confusion. "Is the acting CEO here?"
