Uh... wearing it meant he wouldn't be recognized?

"And a mask."

"..."

Looking at He Lele's speechless look, Qin Zhixiu grinned, his neat, white teeth shining brightly.

Seeing his smile, He Lele could only shake her head and smile.

"Didn't you say you didn't bring money?"

"I dug it out of your piggy bank."

"..."

"Then, there's eleven yuan left."

"Qin, Zhi, Xiu!"

There was no TV in the room, and He Lele didn't have extra money to open the network. Her original plan was to go to the university library opposite to borrow books at night and occasionally attend classes, but now that Qin Zhixiu was here... Qin Zhixiu was actually very interested in her "double-dipping plan" and dragged her out as soon as it got dark.

Her heart!

Along the way, she dragged Qin Zhixiu wherever it was dark. It was hard to get to the library door, but she really didn't dare to go in! But she couldn't drag Qin Zhixiu! He was fearless and broke in!

Fortunately, there were no dangers along the way. They found a classification hall with fewer people, huddled in the back bookshelf to read for the night, and finally slipped out in the crowd before closing.

"Shall we come to attend classes tomorrow?"

"My grandfather, let me go!"

At night, Qin Zhixiu happily made a floor bed. He Lele watched helplessly for a long time and gave up half the bed. Before He Lele could regret it, Qin Zhixiu had already climbed onto the bed with a thin quilt like a satisfied child, and the small single bed was immediately filled to the brim. And when He Lele woke up at dawn, she glanced calmly at Qin Zhixiu, who had already crawled into her quilt.

She accepted it. She really couldn't refuse him.

Let him be... when he meets the right person, he will naturally leave her voluntarily. And as for her, it didn't matter anyway. On the day she accepted her fate and stayed in the apartment three months ago, she had already stopped expecting normal love and marriage.

Trying to live every day well, this was the only thing she could do now.

"Lele, I'm still waiting for you to have lunch with me! Are you that busy just after starting work?" In the morning, Lingyu's text message wrote.

He Lele smiled. "I finish training at 11:30, where shall we eat?"

"Haha! Twelve o'clock at 'Eat Everything with Gusto'! My master is treating!"

Author's Note:

Ahem~~ Although Qin kid was the last one to be eaten in the apartment~ he was the first to settle into a position steadily~ almost without any twists and turns~ As for Du Wei's problem~~ she will be explained soon...

☆, (10 Fresh Coins) Chapter 194: Uninvited Guest

Entering the elevator of the building, He Lele was still hesitating. As soon as she heard Li Yiquan was treating, she wanted to find an excuse to avoid it, but Lingyu's expectant look made her unable to say it. L had a good impression of her? Would he? Looking back at the bits and pieces over the past three years... L was indeed very good to her, with occasional care and unreserved teaching, but wasn't he also very caring toward Lingyu? So she never thought much about it, even if Lingyu often joked about setting her and L up, she just took it as a joke.

During her time in the apartment, L's several messages brought her great comfort. In NG, in front of L, and on the Internet, she could briefly think she was clean.

And after knowing L was Li Yiquan... there was nothing left. Reality was just that upright; it would never leave her space for self-deception.

"Between people and people..."

He Lele took out her phone, originally thinking it was Lingyu calling to urge her, but when she looked closely, she found it was Mu Wei.

"Have you eaten?" A relaxed and comfortable tone.

"... Not yet, preparing to eat."

"I happen to be near you, I wonder if I have the honor to invite Miss He to lunch?" Mu Wei joked. She had long told Mu Wei her address and work in the most open and honest way to show her attitude of never defaulting on debts.

"Now? I... have an appointment with a friend."

"Miss Ren?"

"Mm."

Mu Wei didn't insist either, asked about her work situation with concern, and then hung up the phone.

Out of the elevator, He Lele was still looking around when she heard Ren Lingyu's unreserved greeting.

Li Yiquan... He Lele looked in the direction of the sound and saw that extraordinary man at first glance. A blue fine-striped shirt with the collar slightly open, he had both the flamboyant charm of a young man and the elegant maturity of seven parts. The temperament that stood out from the crowd, coupled with the durable facial features that were both firm and soft, no wonder everyone in the restaurant, like her, was attracted by Lingyu's voice but hooked by his gaze.

Seeing him nodding and smiling at her from afar, He Lele hesitated for a moment, then smiled slightly and walked toward the two.

He Lele had just sat down when Ren Lingyu's phone rang, but Ren Lingyu only glanced at the screen and hung up, waving to greet the waiter.

Looking at the meal served by the waiter, He Lele didn't feel anything, but Ren Lingyu frowned.

"You got it wrong, we haven't ordered yet."
