Transmigrated into the body of a villain, I became my sister's savior.

Lin Jianshen was closer to the door. Just as he was about to get up, Xia Tingwan ran over quickly and put a hand on his shoulder.

"It's okay, bro, you can continue eating. This is UU Delivery."

Her tone was natural: "When I was in the car, I remembered that I had left something in the dormitory. Luckily, my roommate was still there, so I asked her to bring the thing to the delivery guy."

Lin Jianshen nodded and sat down to continue eating.

When Xia Tingwan went to get her things, Lin Jianshen turned around and glanced at her.

She discovered that the delivery guy had given her a brass key.

After the deliveryman left, Lin Jianshen casually asked, "What's this?"

Xia Tingwan walked back and explained, "This is the key to my desk drawer. I was worried it wouldn't be safe to leave it in the dorm, so I brought it back."

What she said made perfect sense. Lin Jianshen didn't think much of it and continued eating with his head down.

The wind outside the window grew stronger.

After the two finished their meal, Xia Tingwan got up.

"Brother, why don't you take a rest?" She stacked the bowls. "I'll wash the dishes and then make you some milk tea. It's a new skill I learned online recently."

She leaned forward, placed one hand next to her nose, pointed her index finger at Lin Jianshen, and said in a fierce tone, "You're not allowed to disrespect me."

Lin Jianshen was amused by her: "Okay, I'll be waiting."

He walked to the bedroom, stood by the window, and looked at the night view outside.

The dark clouds hung low.

The buildings in the distance were brightly lit.

Housing prices in Donghai City have dropped significantly, but buying a house is still not an easy task.

He had to set aside a portion of the commission he received from the gambling ship each month for Song Siyuan and Liu Jun, so that the two of them wouldn't end up wasting their lives in internet cafes.

Moreover, since he doesn't directly manage the team on the ship and has become a hands-off manager, he has to be more generous than others.

A portion of the remaining money will be used to give extra bonuses to team members to win their loyalty.

To prevent the tail from becoming too big to fall off.

Although Jinli seemed very grateful to him and acted in a very disciplined manner.

However, he and Jinli hadn't known each other for long, and their understanding of each other was limited, so it was definitely the right thing to keep something in reserve.

In this way, the commission they take will be very high.

With the remaining amount and the salaries of the short drama actors, it will still take some time to save enough for a down payment.

We still need to find a way to raise our status as soon as possible.

If you become the male lead, your monthly income will be quite substantial.

After Xia Tingwan graduates from university, we will buy a house near her workplace.

That way, her commute will be more convenient, and she won't have to squeeze onto the subway anymore.

He glanced down at the motorcycle parked in the alleyway—a motorcycle with a sticker that read "I must ride the 318 in this lifetime."

The plastic tarpaulin on the vehicle rustled loudly in the wind.

He'd had this motorcycle for over two years, but it's no longer of much use to him; perhaps it's time to get rid of it.

If I become the male lead later on, and after making a down payment I still have some money left, maybe I can buy a car.

That way, when I go to pick up Xia Tingwan, I won't have to worry about not being able to get a taxi, or about wind and rain.

But... this motorcycle has traveled many roads with him and has never abandoned him.

They seem quite sentimental.

It's really hard to get rid of it.

But isn't life all about constantly looking forward?

As he was lost in thought, he heard footsteps behind him.

"Brother, try this milk tea I made."

Xia Tingwan walked over carrying a large bowl containing freshly made milk tea with ice cubes, and a thin layer of water droplets seeped out from the bowl.

Lin Jianshen took the bowl and was taken aback: "Such a big bowl? I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight if I drink this."

Xia Tingwan lowered her head, looking aggrieved, her fingers fiddling with the hem of her clothes: "Everyone ate all the food you made tonight."

"People work so hard to make milk tea, and you have so many excuses..."

She stomped her foot and emphasized, "It took them a lot of effort to finish this."

The way she buttoned her clothes reminded Lin Jianshen of the thin, pitiful girl he had known when he first transmigrated.

She was like that back then, always with her head down and her fingers fiddling with the hem of her clothes.

Even when she speaks, she is very careful and her tone is ingratiating.

His heart softened, and he picked up the bowl: "I didn't say I wouldn't drink it, don't be in such a hurry."

After saying that, he tilted his head back and gulped down the drink.

Xia Tingwan stood beside him, watching his Adam's apple bob up and down, and couldn't help but feel nervous.

Her toes dug slightly into her slippers through her white socks.

Lin Jianshen finished his drink in one gulp, patted his bulging belly, and smacked his lips in confusion.

"That's strange. I remember you bought Lipton black tea bags at the supermarket, but you didn't buy any rose-related materials."

"Why does this milk tea taste like roses?"

Xia Tingwan's heart skipped a beat, but she forced a calm expression: "Huh? How could it taste like roses? You must have drunk the wrong thing."

"Impossible." Lin Jianshen shook his head. "I don't smoke or drink now, and my sense of taste is extremely sensitive. I could work as a research and development specialist at a bubble tea shop, how could I possibly drink the wrong thing?"

Xia Tingwan changed the subject: "Oh dear, I added a few rose petals."

"Brother, the computer you bought me is great. That very night, I typed 'Hello, World!' on it."

Lin Jianshen smiled and said, "As long as it works, that's fine."

Xia Tingwan chatted with him for a while.

He yawned: "Hey, why do I suddenly feel so sleepy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he yawned again, and tears streamed down his face.

Lin Jianshen rubbed his eyes, his voice becoming slightly slurred, "Shouldn't drinking milk tea make you more energetic? Are the tea bags you bought fake?"

The tea bags are genuine, and the medicine in the milk tea is also genuine.

The medicine had been prepared long ago.

I hid it in my backpack while I was in school, waiting for the right opportunity.

Xia Tingwan hadn't expected that she would make her move so quickly.

Lin Jianshen shook his head, trying to clear his mind.

But his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and he muttered to himself, "Working in this line of work really takes a lot of sleep... No wonder that guy could fall asleep even when he was playing a corpse..."

"I understand him a little better now."

He took off his shoes, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

Even breathing sounds filled the room.

Xia Tingwan stood by the bed, quietly watching him.

The wind outside the window picked up, and you could faintly hear raindrops tapping on the windowpane.

She reached out and gently brushed her fingertips across his brow.

Even in his sleep, his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he had a heavy burden on his mind.

"Brother..." she called softly, "Why did you suddenly fall asleep?"

no respond.

It's time to fall asleep.

Xia Tingwan returned to her room, opened her large suitcase, and rearranged the two books inside at the bottom of the suitcase.

One is Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the other is Water Margin.

It's for him to cheer up.

Then he dragged his suitcase to Lin Jianshen's bedroom.

This is currently the largest case on the market.

Although Lin Jianshen is not small, he can still be put inside if you arrange him into a curled-up position.

Xia Tingwan has been training recently.

Although the packing process is somewhat laborious, it is not impossible.

Zip it up, and the wheels roll across the old wooden floor.

She specifically chose the model with silent wheels.

It slides silently.

It might be a bit strenuous to carry it downstairs.

Fortunately, this is only the second floor.

She felt she could do it.

The suitcase also has two air holes drilled at the bottom to prevent suffocation.

Xia Tingwan carefully checked the brass key in her pocket, put on her shoes, and slowly placed her fingers on the doorknob.

"Brother, I'll take you home, back to the home where it's just the two of us."

Although it was just a rented basement, she paid four years' rent upfront, and no one would bother her during that time.

I've already mentally rehearsed this plan several times.

She devised corresponding strategies to deal with the series of possible reactions.

For example, tell Sun Jian that he doesn't know why Lin Jianshen suddenly disappeared, neither alive nor dead.

Given Sun Jian's suspicious nature, coupled with her misleading information, Sun Jian would most likely suspect that it was retaliation from Li Shiqi's side.

Lin Jianshen offended Li Shiqi in order to help Sun Jian save face.

Since he got into trouble, Sun Jian had to help him clean up the mess.

With Sun Jian's current capabilities, I believe he can handle things properly with Chasing Wind Media and other social relationships.

This is called leveraging external resources.

There may be a series of risks and troubles ahead, but she believes that with her intelligence, she can handle them.

Xia Tingwan slowly pressed her hand down.

The clicking sound of the mechanical structure travels through the body to the brain.

The doorknob finally reached the critical point.

With a "click," the lock opened.

Once she gently pushes open the door and steps out, she will never look back, nor can she ever look back again.
