"Oh...it's my cousin."

This is not a grand reconciliation.

"Well, don't be angry with him. Don't let his height of 1.8 meters fool you, he's only twelve years old this year."

"..."

This guy is twelve years old!

Kids these days really grow up fast.

The misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's eat now.

Ever since he learned that the "young man" in front of him was only twelve years old, Guang Guangchen found that all his actions had become incredibly silly, especially when he smiled at him. Guang Guangchen's right eyebrow trembled, and he didn't know how to respond.

“Your dad said he won’t be back for dinner, so let’s just have a simple meal, mother and son,” said Yan’s mother.

"Sigh, when Dad was alive, Mom wasn't here, and when Mom was here, Dad wasn't here either. I'm such a pitiful daughter," Yan Xingmeng said, spreading her hands in a slightly affected manner.

I thought today would be a "siege" against Guangchang, but it turned out to be surprisingly peaceful. Guangchang used his knife and fork to cut the tender venison on the plate, savoring the wonderful flavor. What, he really came here to eat.

Guangchang also noticed that Aunt Yan's gaze kept falling on Nuanxin, who was eating heartily in the distance, and even when she was lightly chewing on her fork and looking slightly lost in thought. It seems that Aunt Yan really likes Nuanxin. What a gluttonous girl, she is just loved by her elders.

As dinner progressed to the middle, the four people who had moved closer together did not move back to their original seats. Yan Xingmeng remained very close to Guang Yuchen, and her mother did not let her sit back down. It goes without saying how much her mother doted on her.

Guangchang was half full. He picked up his water glass and took a sip, then felt someone scratching his thigh.

Without even thinking, he squinted and turned to look at Yan Xingmeng, only to find her still picking at her food.

Immediately, Guang Chen put down his water glass and his left hand. After a short while, Yan Xingmeng's right little finger gently hooked onto his left thumb, just like fishing. Regardless of which finger was being held, they were connected, and the grip tightened.

188. Follow my lead!

After the meal, Chen Nuanxin, who had eaten her fill of carbohydrates, yawned repeatedly and rubbed her eyes. Yan's mother suggested that the group could stay and do some homework together and stay a while longer. Well, that didn't matter. There were only four days left until the final exams, so it was a good opportunity to review more.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the study room, Yi Mo!" After Yan Xingmeng finished speaking to Guangchang, she called out to Yi Mo again. Yi Mo didn't expect that she would have something to do here. She was stunned for a moment, but still nodded and agreed.

Guangchang Chen turned to look for Nuanxin and found her standing in front of Yan Ma, her eyes closed, swaying unsteadily. It was completely dark by then. Yan Ma wrapped a tissue around her right index finger twice and wiped Nuanxin's mouth, which was smeared with sauce. Wow, this was really overflowing with maternal love. Once Nuanxin's personality softened, she would become very lazy. So Guangchang Chen didn't even dare to think about what would happen if Nuanxin were born into a rich family. She might really become a complete waste of space.

"Then I'll set off too." Chen Nuanxin was still very sleepy, and murmured as she opened her eyes a crack.

"Yes, you can take a nap if you're sleepy," said Aunt Yan.

"Okay~" Chen Nuanxin nodded, then turned around and jogged to catch up with her boss. The four of them walked down the corridor, followed by a personal maid. After turning east and west, they arrived at a large door. Yan Xingmeng pushed it open. The space inside was equally large and ornately decorated. It was more like entering a small library than a study room.

“Boss…” Chen Nuanxin was having a phobia of being poor. When she came to some overly luxurious areas, she felt a little uneasy. She subconsciously moved closer to Guang Yunchen, gently tugged at his sleeve, and whispered.

Guangchang scanned the study room. Not only was the space large, but the ceiling was also high. A staircase was specially built to divide it into two floors. The first floor was mostly used for storing books, while the second floor was the study area.

"Young Miss, should we call your tutor?" the maid behind her asked.

"No need, please prepare some cookies and desserts. We can eat them while we do our homework." Yan Xingmeng smiled politely at the maid, whose heart skipped a beat. She quickly agreed and left the study room.

No wonder you're the core member and leader of F6; it's no wonder you're so popular.

"Go call them? Is the tutor a live-in tutor?"

"Hmm~ There are dedicated tutors for different subjects. Not only do I have monthly assessments, but the tutors also have assessments. Only those who pass can continue to teach me; otherwise, they have to undergo another assessment. Correspondingly, they are divided into three levels of tutors, and the salaries they receive are also different." Yan Xingmeng said casually, raising her right index finger, and led the group inside before going upstairs.

"Just hearing this premise, it feels like it's about someone's entire life..." Guangchang muttered under his breath.

"President," Shan Yimo suddenly spoke up.

"What's wrong?" Yan Xingmeng turned her head.

Shan Yimo hesitated for a moment, then said, "President, I'm already in my senior year of high school, so the material I need to study and review might be a little different."

She meant, why was she also called to stay and study together? Shouldn't it be better to let the president and Guang Chen spend time alone together at times like this?

So, Shan Yimo is quite modest in this respect...

Upon hearing this, Yan Xingmeng and Guangchang, who were walking ahead, both sighed. Shan Yimo only fit the image and temperament of a super young lady. Apart from that, she really puts herself last in everything. Well... she can give way to Xiaolong, she can give way to Dalong, and she doesn't care if the base explodes. Her main goal is to give way.

"Ha..." Yan Xingmeng exhaled a breath, saw Yi Mo with her head down on the two steps down, then stretched out her left hand and said, "Don't worry about these things, come on."

Shan Yimo looked up at the president's outstretched hand, responded, and took his hand. The group went up to the second floor and sat down at a table. The second floor was quite spacious, with even a tatami area. There was also a huge TV screen directly opposite. This was hardly a study room.

Before long, after the maid brought in several plates of cookies, desserts, and cut fruit, Chen Nuanxin finally relaxed a bit. As the saying goes, the stomach for main meals and desserts is a separate stomach. Chen Nuanxin quickly finished her homework and sat on the tatami mat not far away, eating cookies. With a comfortable warm breeze blowing beside her, she chewed slower and slower, and looked like she was about to fall asleep at any moment with her eyes closed.

That's good, that's good. This way I'll have more time to study properly. I won't lose to you in the final exam. So heartwarming. Hehehehe, Guangchang Chen chuckled inwardly. His friend's laziness always made him feel so at ease.

Guang Guangchen was seated in the center, with Yan Xingmeng on his left and Shan Yimo on his right. For the past ten minutes or so, it had been mostly Guang Guangchen and Yan Xingmeng chatting, while Shan Yimo remained engrossed in her own work, her face cold and aloof. This created a strange sense of déjà vu, like… Guang Guangchen had openly admitted that he currently preferred Shan Yimo, yet Shan Yimo was repeatedly deferring, sitting quietly to the side watching Guang Guangchen interact with the president without showing any interest. This…

Half an hour later, today's review came to an end. Yan Xingmeng couldn't bear to watch anymore, because she had noticed Yi Mo's furtive glances more than once. This time, she caught Yi Mo's gaze directly, and a hint of panic appeared on Yi Mo's face. She was quickly calming down.

Yan Xingmeng was truly exasperated with her best friend. Was she supposed to keep pushing her through this? She had already openly admitted they could compete fairly. Before, Shan Yimo and Guang Yunchen had spent time together in that cat-themed classroom, and Shan Yimo had even asked her to go on dates with them. At least in Yan Xingmeng's eyes, this was progress for her friend. But just a few days later, it was back to this. Whenever she was around, Shan Yimo kept giving in, clearly having her own feelings but refusing to express them…

Yan Xingmeng needed to break the ice, so she turned her head to look at the tatami mat and found that Nuanxin had completely fallen asleep on the mat, emitting soft snores.

It's time to take some action.

"Guangdong Chen." This time, Yan Xingmeng didn't call him "classmate."

"?"

"Hands." Yan Xingmeng uttered the familiar word.

Guangchang was stunned. In... this situation? Shan Yimo understood immediately upon hearing the words and looked away, refusing to look at the two of them.

Ah this...

“Just do as I say,” Yan Xingmeng insisted.

Guangchang Chen didn't understand what Yan Xingmeng wanted to do, but out of trust in her, because he knew very well that holding hands in this situation might have a provocative connotation, but Yan Xingmeng wasn't the kind of person who would provoke Shan Yimo. If he used reverse psychology, Shan Yimo's personality might be easily provoked into surrendering.

He did as instructed, raising his left hand and extending it above the table.

Then?

“And the right hand,” Yan Xingmeng added.

"Huh?" Guangchang was even more confused, but he still did as he was told and stretched out his right hand as well.

"Hmm, Yi Mo." Yan Xingmeng suddenly called out to Yi Mo, and Yi Mo immediately looked up.

Immediately afterward, Yan Xingmeng grabbed Guangchang Chen's hand and looked at Shan Yimo, saying, "Do as I say, now, take his hand."

Guangchang closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the number of question marks in his eyes was as many as the stars in the sky.

"Huh?" Shan Yimo was also dumbfounded and at a loss for what to do, but Yan Xingmeng repeated it again, her tone even more resolute. Shan Yimo finally did as she was told, looking at Guangchang Chen's palm, slowly raising her left hand and placing it on his palm.

"Then," Yan Xingmeng continued, intertwining her fingers with Guang Guangchen's. This scene struck Shan Yimo's heart. Although she would hold hands with Guang Guangchen in secluded places or when no one was around, in front of the president, in front of the president...

Dan Shimo's mind was in chaos, but Guangchang Chen understood, though this method was indeed quite bizarre...

The president's order could not be disobeyed. Shan Yimo was under immense pressure, but she still did as she was told. In the end, she and Guangchang Chen intertwined their fingers. At that moment, a warm current flowed from their touching palms. It felt so warm.

“That’s it.” Yan Xingmeng’s tone finally softened. The scene in front of her was Guang Chen holding two girls’ hands, one in each hand, and placing them on the table. He didn’t have to do anything anymore, and the three of them fell silent.

Guangchang initially thought Yan Xingmeng's ideology was too bizarre, but when he turned around, he found that Yan Xingmeng's ears were as red as a sunset. Oh, so she was just putting on a brave face...

So, where did this dating advice come from...?

As for Nuanxin, well, she's still fast asleep.

About ten minutes later, Guangchang suddenly suggested that he needed to use the restroom, and Yan Xingmeng also said that she would go too. Shan Yimo finally found an opportunity to let go of his hand and said that she would stay here.

Yan Xingmeng finally didn't object. Then the two of them got up one after the other, glanced at the sleeping Nuanxin, and walked slowly down the stairs on the wooden floor. Only after pushing open the door and going out did they feel relieved.

"Phew." The temperature outside was noticeably lower. Guangchang Chen exhaled and shivered. Just as he was about to ask where the restroom was, his left hand was taken again.

Turning to look at Yan Xingmeng, he saw that Yan Xingmeng was also leaning forward, giving him a sweet smile.

Look at how much of a benefit she has from her good looks.

The two walked hand in hand along the right side. They hadn't gone far when they heard a sound. Looking up, they saw Zhang Hesong standing about five meters away, his mouth agape in shock, staring at their tightly clasped hands, completely in disbelief.

"elder sister……"

"What are you doing here, Hesong? Go back to your room and sleep." Yan Xingmeng said coldly, her powerful aura hitting him directly, turning Zhang Hesong's middle parting into a slicked-back hairstyle. He immediately nodded obediently and timidly, only uttering a single word.

"Yes……"

189. Nightfall is coming!

……

"It's so late, why don't you sleep at our place?" Yan Xingmeng rubbed Chen Nuanxin's chubby cheeks, still half asleep, and found it rather amusing to watch the bubbles rising from her head.

"Ha..." Chen Nuanxin yawned, her hand being held by Yan Xingmeng, and she was in a state of completely automatic following.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Guangchang Chen said helplessly, hands on his hips. He had already informed Nuanxin's family that he would be sleeping at Yan Xingmeng's house tonight. Anyway, there were plenty of guest rooms. Staying at a friend's house was a part of adolescence that one had to experience.

"Then get some rest," Shan Yimo said casually from the side.

"Good night." Chen Nuanxin's eyelids were too heavy to open. She reached out and made a clapping motion in the direction of her boss, and then Yan Xingmeng pulled her away.

Guang Guangchen watched the three leave, then turned back to look at the guest room arranged for him. He went straight in and immediately smelled a faint fragrance. Some people are very sensitive to certain scents, such as the smell of books, dampness, or wood. The guest room was also very large, and the bed was neatly made with blankets. The heating had been turned on in advance, and a sense of security welled up in Guang Guangchen's heart.

Just then, his WeChat notification vibrated. He casually closed the door, took out his phone, glanced at it, and saw that it was a message from Yan Xingmeng—a photo.

The photo is a heartwarming close-up of his face; he looks so sleepy he's drooling, and it's actually quite amusing.

“Nuanxin is sleeping with me tonight,” Yan Xingmeng sent her next message.

Guang Chen maintained a faint smile, then walked to the chair by the window and sat down. There was a large box full of snacks on the table in front of him, which was incredibly thoughtful.

“Okay, if her snoring is too loud, let her sleep alone.” Guangchang took a bag of snacks and chatted with Yan Xingmeng while eating. It was almost 10 p.m., but Guangchang wasn’t sleepy. He chatted with Yan Xingmeng on and off until 10:30 p.m. before taking a shower.

After showering and changing into his pajamas, Guang Chen had a towel draped over his head, his gaze fixed on the lock on the bedroom door, wondering whether he should go or not…

If you stay at Yan Xingmeng's house, the probability of her launching a surprise attack is extremely high.

Ok……

Guangchang raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided not to lock the door. He turned around and went back to bed. Yan Xingmeng's bed was a soft bed, while Guangchang preferred a firm bed. However, he could still feel the silky smoothness of the mattress occasionally. The Simmons quilt also felt very smooth to the touch, which was quite nice.

With the heating on and the blankets cool, this was exactly what Guangchang wanted—just like how in the sweltering summer, you want to turn the air conditioning down low and wrap yourself tightly in the blankets.

As soon as he lay down, the surroundings became quiet, and people easily started having all sorts of mental exercises. Guangchang Chen thought about his current situation. He had been in this world for five months, and four girls had expressed their feelings for him. He had indeed fallen for Shan Yimo and Yan Xingmeng. Or rather, the great hand of the world's will had been pushing him all along. But Guangchang Chen still believed that all of this was due to his own free will and that he was not being influenced by any other thoughts.

Could it be that I will end up dating either Yi Mo or Yan Xingmeng?

Both girls have inner qualities that are completely different from their outward appearances. Yi Mo appears aloof, but in reality, she needs to rely on others a lot. Guang Changchen has already seen through this. Yi Mo longs for someone to be her emotional support, which actually resonates with Guang Changchen quite a bit. After all, he is a boy, and being relied on is also a form of being trusted. Imagine that in the future, Yi Mo becomes the female boss of a company, and everyone in the company is terrified of her. But when she comes home, she is willing to lean on his shoulder and watch TV together to relieve the boredom of her daily work. This is Yi Mo.

Unlike those who have various hobbies after work, some people need to have a drink or a late-night snack to relieve work pressure, but Shan Yimo needs someone more. And now, his trust with Shan Yimo is gradually increasing. It's kind of funny, the reason why the trust between the two initially increased was because of the president. Otherwise, the two would never have had any interaction. He would never have thought that he and Shan Yimo would develop to this point. A few months ago, he would have racked his brains and never imagined it.

As for Yan Xingmeng, she was much more insightful than Yi Mo. She initially tricked him, and he thought they would part ways. However, through a series of small actions, Yan Xingmeng made Guang Changchen fall for her again. This was quite remarkable. Guang Changchen had already experienced the trials of the mortal world and had gone through a period of severely torturing Yan Xingmeng, witnessing her emotional desolation. But she kept making clever moves and always chose to take the initiative. From the botanical garden to following him to his hometown, she completed another major leap in their relationship.

Initially a mysterious and enigmatic heiress, she gradually reveals her true personality through daily interactions. However, if one were to choose to date one of them... well...

Guang Guangchen has always maintained the principle of not dating or being in a relationship since high school, but this principle has been holding him back for a long time. So after Christmas Eve, he finally decided that he should follow his own true desires. He had already taken a step toward Shan Yimo, so it would be pretentious to back down. When the time comes, Guang Guangchen will still follow his heart and may or may not date anyone.

Guangchang had his hands behind his head, his eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling, and he wasn't sleepy yet.

As for the young lady and Qianwen, for now, I still think they are just friends. Oh right... Guangchang looked at the folded scarf on the bedside table. The young lady had given him two scarves, so he used the two scarves interchangeably throughout the winter. At first, he thought it was just a kind of care for a subordinate, after all, she was a tsundere. But until that moment, on the second-floor platform of the restaurant, the young lady let slip that she liked him, and all the previous meanings changed.

Being arrogant is good, there's nothing wrong with being arrogant, it's just that Guangchang Chen's heart is now divided in two, and he has someone else in his heart.

And Qianwen is similar in principle...

Just as Guangchang was lost in his daydreams, a soft sound of the door opening came from the direction of the room.

This brought Guangchang back to his senses instantly. See? See? I told you he would come. Leaving the door open was a good idea. Should I pretend to be asleep again?

Footsteps approached, but upon hearing them, Guangchang suddenly sensed something was amiss. Over time, he had become able to recognize the footsteps of different people, and these footsteps were particularly familiar to him.

Outside the cat classroom is a long corridor. Every time Shan Yimo enters the building and walks towards the cat classroom, Guangchang knows it is her as soon as he hears her footsteps.

Guang Guangchen pretended to be asleep with his eyes closed, while Shan Yimo had already come to his bedside. She then slowly squatted down, placed her hands on the edge of the bed, and stared intently at Guang Guangchen's profile. Guang Guangchen was quite nervous; the unexpected person had come to the unexpected place...

Shan Yimo then raised her hand, leaned forward, and gently poked Guang Yuchen's cheek with her right index finger.

Should I pretend to be asleep...?

"I know you're not asleep."

Okay, there's no need to pretend to be asleep anymore.

When Guangchang heard Yimo say this, he slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to look at her. He saw that Yimo was wearing a long light blue nightgown, and her short, wispy hair was still wet. It hadn't been completely dried with a hairdryer. Two buttons were undone at the neckline, and one of her collarbones was clearly visible. It could be said that she was... about to burst with femininity. It must be said that when a woman's feminine characteristics are constantly hidden, but you can still feel her feminine charm, it means that her femininity has reached its limit.

"What's wrong? Can't sleep?" Guangchang turned to his side, resting his head on his bent right arm, and asked softly.

Shan Yimo shook her head after hearing this and said softly, "I just wanted to say hello."
