A skin-thirsty episode occurred, in her brother's arms.

Li Le and Wang Qixin noticed that Xu Xingchen was distracted the whole way.

They hesitated, yet still wanted to know, and after a long while, they didn't ask.

Anyone with eyes can see that there's something wrong between Xu Xingchen and Qin Ge.

Asking Xu Xingchen now is no different than stabbing him in the heart.

Hesitating like this all the way back to the dormitory, he still couldn't get the answer.

Wang Qixin stood at the door and said, "If Xingxing encounters any trouble and needs help, be sure to tell us immediately."

Li Le nodded quickly, "That's right, that's right, we'll definitely help if we can."

Even just providing emotional value is good.

Xu Xingchen's expression softened considerably. "Okay, thank you."

No sooner had she finished speaking than she saw Qin Ge standing at the door before she even opened it.

His gaze swept over Li Le and Wang Qixin, without much warmth.

Li Le and Wang Qixin felt a chill run down their spines for no apparent reason.

"What are you talking about? Aren't you coming in?"

Qin Ge's tone was actually quite nice, but Li Le and Wang Qixin felt an even greater chill run down their spines.

Although Qin Ge usually exudes a strong sense of pressure, this is the first time he has been this strong.

Li Le and Wang Qixin were speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say, and subconsciously looked to Xu Xingchen for help.

Xu Xingchen pushed open the door and went in, "We chatted for a few minutes."

Qin Ge followed.

Li Le and Wang Qixin then inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Ge plopped down next to Xu Xingchen. "Which dorm did Xingxing go to just now?"

Xu Xingchen thought for a moment, "Both 607 and 609 went."

The first room I went to was 607. Everyone in 607 had just finished dinner and their eyes lit up as they stared at the fried chicken. Unfortunately, they had eaten a lot for dinner and couldn't eat much.

So they went to 609.

Qin Ge mentally went through all the people in 607 and 609. He had already learned that the dormitories next to theirs were mixed dorms when Xingxing first arrived.

I often run into the students from the two dormitories next door when I go out.

There was no interaction between Xu Xingchen and the others, except for Deng Tong.

"Deng Tong is also in 609. Did you see him?"

Xu Xingchen was a little puzzled. After thinking about it carefully, he asked, "Who is Deng Tong?"

When they arrived at dormitory 609, there were three people in the dormitory, one of whom Xu Xingchen vaguely remembered.

Firstly, because the man looked somewhat familiar, and secondly, because he was tall and strong, and almost fell off the bed, Xu Xingchen remembered him.

The gloom in Qin Ge's eyes lessened slightly. "Someone from another academy is not important."

"oh."

Xu Xingchen didn't have the drive to ask questions; he was already dealing with a huge mess himself and simply didn't have the energy to care about anything else.

Xu Xingchen didn't know, but how could Li Le and Wang Qixin, who frequented the school forum, not know?

They know it all too well.

Deng Tong is from the law school next door.

After meeting Xu Xingchen somewhere, a law student came to the School of Automation to take classes and chose several elective courses that had nothing to do with their major.

Deng Tong has always been the top student in his major, so his actions were quite conspicuous.

Everyone was suspicious of his motives at the time, wondering why he chose such an outrageous elective.

There are different opinions.

Deng Tong kept his mouth shut, and no one was able to get any information out of him.

Until one day, Xu Xingchen volunteered to help deliver water.

He casually handed a bottle to Deng Tong. Deng Tong's face turned bright red, and he stammered as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Then... under the scorching sun of 38 degrees Celsius, I spectacularly fainted.

Now, the answer is clear.

Of course, his outcome was no different from that of others who tried to get close to Xu Xingchen. As soon as his purpose was exposed, Qin Ge, the vicious dog guarding Xu Xingchen's side, made his move immediately.

From then on, there were many more restrictions on elective courses, and Deng Tong completely disappeared from Xu Xingchen's side.

Qin Ge did all of this quietly, and Xu Xingchen was completely unaware of his existence.

Li Le and Wang Qixin frantically flashed their hazard lights.

Xu Xingchen was just about to go to bed when he suddenly received a phone call from his mother.

Ms. Ruan and Mr. Xu are a couple who pursue romance. Their world is free, and they can travel thousands of miles to find answers for their dreams.

Two botanical experts dedicated their lives to plants.

When he was very young, Xu Xingchen blamed them for not being able to stay by his side like other parents.

His nanny was always by his side.

Later, he stopped blaming them; he saw the world they had been searching for.

Brilliant and beautiful, it is nature's most magical masterpiece.

It's not that they don't love him, it's just that they have more important goals. They are free and not bound by their identity as parents.

As Xu Xingchen grew up, he maintained a good relationship with them, contacting them every few days and receiving local specialties from various places.

Xu Xingchen answered the phone, "Hello, Mom."

"Star Boy, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, what's wrong?"

"My dearest child, you know we love you. You are the only fruit of our love, and when we're away from home, you're the one we miss the most—"

Xu Xingchen, "..."

I've become immune to this kind of talk after hearing it so many times.

He interrupted Ms. Ruan's long prelude, saying directly, "Just say what you want to say."

"We discovered a completely new plant on a remote island in the Atlantic Ocean. It's a new plant that has never been seen before, and it's so beautiful. Have you seen the photos?"

Xu Xingchen then noticed the photos that Ms. Ruan had sent earlier.

"So you're not coming back again?"

"Honey, we are so sorry, this ecosystem is facing serious damage. The plants we found are dying, and we must take some protective measures."

Mr. Xu added, "We'll get it sorted out and come back as soon as possible."

"At least, before your birthday."

This statement carries a hint of uncertainty, after all, what they do is full of uncertainty, and it is common for them to wander on the road for ten days or half a month.

They frequently lost contact when entering uninhabited areas.

As far back as Xu Xingchen can remember, Qin Ge has always given him a full sense of ceremony for every holiday, birthday, and anniversary.

He also prefers to spend some holidays with Qin Ge.

His parents have always had a good relationship, which hasn't changed over the years, and he has no intention of becoming a third wheel.

Xu Xingchen hummed twice. "You guys be careful too. Don't go to places that are too dangerous, especially cliffs and steep slopes. And remember to bring your belongings with you."

"Okay, okay, Mom and Dad love you. Your gift will arrive soon, remember to sign for it. Mua~ Goodnight, baby."
