After seeing the emotion color, they all turned pink.

"Keeping it... is fine too..."

Xu Wanxing seemed to understand that Xu Chuan probably couldn't come up with a solution in such a short time.

As Xu Chuan lowered his hand, she also lowered her eyes and slowly released her grip.

Yes, after all, Xu Chuan lacks nothing—love and warmth...

But if it were her own wish, three wishes… if there really were a little fairy who could grant them for her, she could rattle them off in no time, and might even find it not enough…

"By the way, you're going to school tomorrow too, right?"

Xu Chuan suddenly remembered that tomorrow is Monday.

Little Star finally ended his enviable vacation and was about to return to No. 3 Middle School, he then asked.

"What time do you day students usually finish evening self-study and go home?"

"I can come back after school in the afternoon. No. 3 Middle School does not require day students to study on campus," Xu Wanxing said.

"Well...you should tell your mother too, because I overheard something when I came to your house last time..."

"Mom, I'll talk to her..." Xu Wanxing's voice lowered.

There's no escaping this hurdle.

Xu Wanxing is returning to No. 3 Middle School tomorrow. If those naive students still dare to cause trouble, then I, as their uncle, really need to increase the power of my "purple mood" and give them a good talking-to.

However, the challenges of Little Star, Old Feng, and the dam are ones she must overcome herself; they are her own inner demons...

"What time do you go to class at No. 3 Middle School? Oh, and you have to raise the flag tomorrow too, right...?"

The two were still holding hands and chatting reluctantly downstairs when Xu Chuan's phone suddenly rang.

The caller was a very powerful and influential noblewoman.

This directly interrupted their conversation, completely extinguishing Xu Chuan's idea of ​​going upstairs with Xiao Xingxing later...

"What time is it and you're still not back? Are you even going to school tomorrow, Xu Chuan?"

"Little Star, get some rest too. Call Auntie if you need anything~"

Xu Chuan's eye twitched slightly; he simply couldn't imagine that these two different tones could come from the same person...

After saying goodbye to Xu Wanxing, I went home.

As soon as I entered the house, I heard loud banging and clanging sounds, like the house was being demolished. Empress Dowager Su and Old Xu were wearing aprons and cleaning his old, dilapidated house.

"Old Zhang's house is really spacious and close to the school, it's actually quite nice..."

Old Xu wiped his sweat as he swept the floor, and then continued...

"It's much more convenient for Xu Chuan to stay here every day. Chuanzi, come with me for the New Year this year. Don't forget to have a good New Year's greeting with your Uncle Zhang..."

"How about we talk to Lao Zhang about buying this house for the kids to live in..." Su Ling's voice came from the empty bedroom.

"There's no need to buy one; I'll just live there for three years during high school for convenience."

"..."

"You...this..."

Xu Chuan stood somewhat bewildered in the living room, watching the mysterious couple bustling about, a little confused. "Why are you cleaning this?"

"Little Star is moving in tomorrow, shouldn't we clean up beforehand?"

Empress Dowager Su raised her phone and continued speaking.

"I've been thinking, let's not wait until the rent expires. Your dad and I are in Yiyue these days, so we can help you move in. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome and tiring for you two kids to move around..."

"So... Xu Wanxing is moving in tomorrow?" Xu Chuan asked, stunned.

"Let's see tomorrow. I'll talk to her after school..."

"I'd better ask her first..."

Xu Chuan felt that Xiao Xingxing might not be able to adapt to Empress Dowager Su's style of doing things first and asking questions later.

He opened his phone and tapped WeChat, intending to tell her first.

But as soon as he entered WeChat, he suddenly realized something else.

Princess Xixi asked him a question in a chat two hours ago, and he still hasn't replied...

Crayon Koi: [Happy Birthday!]

Crayon Stream: [Animated emoticon: A little yellow duck pacing around]

(No reply after four hours)

Xu Chuan: [Thank you, Princess Xixi]

Xu Chuan: [(Animated emoticon: Heart-shaped bunny)]

(Reply immediately afterwards)

Crayon Koi: [(Animated emoticon: Black face with a smile)]

Crayon Stream: [But I know some bad news, I don't know if you want to hear it.]

Crayon Koi: [(Animated emoticon: Black face with a smile)]

(No reply for two hours)

What is the most awkward part?

When Lin Xixi wished him a happy birthday for the first time, he didn't really have anything to do four or five hours later, since his phone was probably not with him.

The second wave was awkward. After he replied with "thank you," Lin Xixi replied instantly and then started a new topic with bad news.

Then, he didn't reply.

Two hours later...

However, Xu Chuan really didn't mean it.

His WeChat screen was still frozen in the "Crayon Shin-chan" chat box; it was purely because the situation was urgent...

As soon as the bedroom door opened, both Little Star and Empress Dowager Su burst into tears. Adding to the confusion, Old Xu had previously been peeping at his screen, which had caused a commotion.

Now, looking at the (black face with a smile) emoji that Princess Xixi posted back then, the more I look at it, the more I feel that the power of yin and yang is maxed out...

Xu Chuan: [What bad news?]

Xu Chuan: [(Animated emoticon: Curious baby)]

It doesn't matter, I'll just send it to her. As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who will be.

After sending the message to Lin Xixi, Xu Chuan then sent a message to Xu Wanxing, telling her about Empress Dowager Su's preparations.

Then, I received an affirmative reply.

Here comes my 16-year-old female tenant, Little Star, who will be moving in tomorrow...

"Dedicate your youth to that building behind you..."

Xu Chuan unconsciously hummed a soft hum.

"Hey Chuanzi, what song were you humming while you were looking at your phone?" Old Xu asked with a smile as he mopped the floor.

"Did I... hum a song?"

"Yes, there is, something about dedicating one's youth to what is left behind..."

"Call……"

Before Xu Chuan could even smile and continue speaking, Empress Dowager Su ruthlessly interrupted him with a broom.

"The two of them are singing in unison, what a load of nonsense! Go wash up and go to bed, don't you have school tomorrow morning?"

"..."

After Old Xu and Empress Dowager Su finished cleaning, the two drove back to their house in Yiyue High-tech Zone.

After washing up, Xu Chuan lay down on the bed, ready to sleep.

Although he fell asleep quickly using the gray sleep aid, Xu Chuan's sleep was still relatively light.

Around 1 a.m.

"Beep beep".

"Beep beep".

A message notification came through my phone.

"Who is it...?"

Xu Chuan frowned, picked up his phone, and unlocked the screen.

Crayon Shin-chan: [The bad news is... Min-jie said that after our midterm exam results are released, there might be a parent-teacher conference.]

Crayon Shin-chan: [(Animated emoticon: teary-eyed)]

The cartoon bunny with teary eyes is a bright and white emoji.

They immediately flashed a full-fledged light into Xu Chuan's dark room.

This Princess Xixi...

Why aren't you asleep yet at 1 a.m.? She goes home on Sunday too, and she has to get up earlier than usual for the flag-raising ceremony tomorrow morning, Monday.

Xu Chuan didn't use the light blue light to keep himself awake. His mind was so sleepy that he tossed his phone aside and closed his eyes again.

No reply.

But, in the hazy state, some other information suddenly surfaced in my mind.

That evening, at nine o'clock, he replied to Lin Xixi's message for the first time, which was also the time she brought up the topic of that bad news.

I replied to her two hours later, at 11 p.m.

It's 1 a.m. now, exactly two hours since I replied to that message...

So... she deliberately waited two hours before replying to me?
