Oh no! I've only been a freshman and I've already been targeted by a mean upperclassman.

He looked down at her.

"Xixi, I promise you."

No matter what happens, I will never leave you.

Yan Xi stared into his eyes.

"real?"

"real."

Li Chen nodded.

"I keep my word."

Yan Xi looked at him.

My eyes suddenly turned a little red.

"you……"

She bit her lip.

"You'll regret this."

"Won't."

Li Chen smiled.

"My greatest strength is that I keep my word."

Yan Xi didn't say anything.

But tears fell.

Li Chen was stunned.

"Why...why are you crying?"

"I didn't cry."

Yan Xi wiped away her tears.

"that is……"

She paused.

"I'm just a little touched."

Li Chen smiled.

He reached out and wiped away her tears.

"fool."

"What's there to be moved about?"

"I was just telling the truth."

Yan Xi looked at him.

Then he suddenly laughed.

"Li Chen".

"Um?"

"Do you know?"

She paused.

"You are the first person I want to rely on."

Li Chen was stunned for a moment.

Then he laughed.

"Then I would be honored."

Yan Xi rolled her eyes at him.

"Vanity."

Li Chen smiled.

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

"Okay, stop crying."

"I didn't cry."

Yan Xi is stubborn.

"Okay, okay, you didn't cry."

Li Chen said with a smile.

"So what do you want to do now?"

Yan Xi thought for a moment.

"I think……"

She paused.

"I want to take a shower."

"bath?"

Li Chen was stunned for a moment.

"Now?"

"yes."

Yan Xi stood up.

"I just cried, my face is sticky."

"Then go ahead."

Li Chen nodded.

"I'll be waiting for you here."

"Um."

Yan Xi walked towards the bathroom.

I walked to the door.

She suddenly turned around.

"Li Chen".

"Um?"

"you……"

She paused.

"You're not allowed to peek."

Li Chen smiled.

"Don't worry, I won't."

"real?"

"real."

Li Chen nodded.

"I keep my word."

Yan Xi looked at him.

Then he laughed.

"That's good."

She went into the bathroom.

Close the door.

Li Chen sat on the sofa.

Listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

My mind started wandering again.

He shook his head.

Pick up your phone.

Open WeChat.

In the roommate group chat.

Wang Qiang is sending a voice message.

"Old Li, what are you doing?"

Why aren't you replying to my messages?

"Are you busy with important business?"

Li Chen rolled his eyes.

Reply by typing.

No, I was just watching TV.

Wang Qiang replied instantly.

【watch TV?】

[You're with your sister-in-law, and you still have the mood to watch TV?]

[Old Li, are you sure you can handle this?]

Li Chen's lips twitched.

You're the one who's not good enough.

I'm fine.

Wang Qiang sent a mischievous smiley face.

What are you doing?

【to be honest.】

Li Chen thought for a moment.

[I'm just watching TV.]

【real. 】

Wang Qiang sent a disdainful emoji.

【cut.】

I don't believe it.

Li Chen ignored him.

I tossed my phone aside.

Keep watching TV.

But all I could think about was Yan Xi.

When she cried.

Eyes are red.

They look particularly pitiful.

He suddenly realized.

I think I've really fallen for her.

It's not the kind of superficial liking.

It comes from the heart.

I want to protect her.

I want to make her happy.

I want to spend my whole life with her.

He sighed.

Leaning back on the sofa.

Close your eyes.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The bathroom door opened.

Yan Xi came out.

She was wearing a hotel bathrobe.

Her hair was still wet.

Water droplets dripped down the ends of her hair.

Li Chen opened his eyes.

Look at her.

"Are you done washing?"

"Um."

Yan Xi nodded.

I walked over and sat down next to him.

Why don't you go wash up?

"I'll go later."

Li Chen said.

Your hair is still wet.

"Let me dry you."

Yan Xi was stunned for a moment.

"Can you blow-dry hair?"

Yes.

Li Chen stood up.

"My mom used to ask me to blow on her a lot."

"So I'm quite skilled at it."

Yan Xi looked at him.

Then he laughed.

"Oh well."

Li Chen walked into the bathroom.

Take out the hair dryer.

I returned to the sofa.

"Sit still."

Yan Xi sat down obediently.

Li Chen stood behind her.

Turn on the hair dryer.

A warm breeze blew through Yan Xi's hair.

Li Chen's fingers ran through her hair.

The movements were very gentle.

Yan Xi closed her eyes.

Enjoying this tenderness.

She suddenly realized.

Such days.

It seems pretty good.

The sound of the hairdryer echoed in the room.

Li Chen's fingers ran through Yan Xi's hair.

again and again.

His movements were very gentle.

I was afraid of hurting her.

Yan Xi closed her eyes.

Feeling the warmth coming from my scalp.

And there's the feel of Li Chen's fingertips.

She suddenly realized.

This man.

It seems really suitable for a comfortable life.

"alright."

Li Chen turned off the hair dryer.

"Done."

Yan Xi opened her eyes.

He raised his hand and touched his hair.

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Li Chen smiled.

"I'm going to take a shower now."

"Um."

Yan Xi nodded.

Li Chen walked into the bathroom.

Close the door.

Yan Xi sat on the sofa.

Pick up your phone.

Leng Qingge sent a message.

Are you with Li Chen?

Yan Xi replied.

【Um. 】

【Yo.】

Leng Qingge replied instantly.

What stage is the progress at?

Yan Xi thought for a moment.

They kissed.

Holy crap!

Leng Qingge sent a shocked emoji.

Why are you moving so fast?

It's alright.

Yan Xi is typing.

【that is……】

She paused.

He initiated it.

Hahahaha.

Leng Qingge sent a string of laughing emojis.

[You fishing master, you've finally gotten fished out of the water?]

Yan Xi rolled her eyes.

【roll.】

Stop fooling around.

I didn't make a scene.

Leng Qingge continued sending messages.

I just found it quite funny.

You're usually so aloof.

[In the end, she was completely powerless in front of Li Chen.]

Yan Xi did not reply.

Because she knew.

Leng Qingge is right.

She was in front of Li Chen.

He really doesn't have much of a temper.

Or.

She didn't want to be in front of him.

They acted so assertively.

She wanted him to see it.

The soft side of myself.

The bathroom door opened.

Li Chen came out.

He was only wearing pajama bottoms.

His upper body was bare.

Water droplets slid down his chest.

Yan Xi was stunned for a moment.

Then look away.

"you……"

She paused.

Why aren't you wearing any clothes?

"I forgot to take it."

Li Chen scratched his head.

"I'll go get it."

He walked up to the suitcase.

I pulled out a T-shirt.

Wear it on your body.

Then I walked over to the sofa and sat down.

"What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing."

Yan Xi put away her phone.

"It was Qingge who asked me that."

"What do you want to ask you?"

"Ask me..."

Yan Xi paused.

"Asking me how far things have progressed between us."

Li Chen was stunned for a moment.

"Then what will you say?"

I said…

Yan Xi looked at him.

I said we kissed.

Li Chen's face instantly turned red.

"you……"

He coughed.

Why do you tell her everything?

"Because she's my best friend."

Yan Xi said it as a matter of course.
