Chapter One, please accept this chrysanthemum with a smile

Sighing, Lin Chuxia, who considered herself unfortunate, decided to lift the manhole cover to retrieve her phone

Where are you

"Come in." Gu Jiuyou opened the door, only to find Lin Chuxia still standing at the entrance of the small courtyard

Is this what Gu Jiu You meant by bodily repayment?

After a hesitant farewell to the department head, Lin Chuxia only wanted to escape, so she instinctively quickened her pace

Suddenly, Gu Jiu You rolled down the car window

"I guess it's because you just called me?" An Jiemo blinked and looked her over again, "Quite impressive!"

The anger in Lin Chuxia's heart suddenly ignited; after all, it was just an Anjie Mo. She did not believe that with the chat records from the past 4 years as her guide, she would be unable to find him

Rubbing the back of his head that had been hurt from the fall, An Jiemo did not show the slightest hint of anger on his face. He merely raised the corner of his mouth and continued to smile, saying: "Xiao Chuxia, I am very glad you came to find me; what a heroic entrance!"

Anjiemo let out a scoff and laughed

Her heart was almost in her throat; this guy wouldn't be here to report her to the department head for her last "hit-and-run," would he

After making eye contact, Lin Chuxia, feeling guilty, swallowed hard and repeatedly nodded while bowing to apologize

It was already four hours later when the cleaning of Gu Jiu You's large house was completed. This guy sat on a high stool typing on the keyboard while she was cleaning the room, occasionally glancing over to give orders: "You also need to wipe under the low table; when I come to check, if there is even a speck of dust, you can just wait to not graduate."

I know you are a good girl, you were just deceived by this scoundrel. But now that you have seen his true colors, do not let yourself sink deeper... Lin Chuxia was crying and sniffling, still kicking An Jiemo's foot beneath her.

Gu Jiu You must have done it on purpose

Cautiously following Gu Jiu You, Lin Chuxia entered the small courtyard and immediately felt as if she was about to descend into the eighteen layers of hell. She already had a round face, and now, with a frown, it had transformed into a meat bun!

Lin Chuxia, who spoke softer and softer, was almost inaudible by the end! She knew she was in the wrong yet remained shameless, causing his car to get stuck in the sewer and then escaping while brazenly asking for his forgiveness...! ... However, if this continued, the screenwriter mentor's expression would soon send her straight to the eighteenth level of hell!

A week later, while Lin Chuxia was engaged in a fierce sparring session with the Taekwondo senior at the school gym, the class monitor called her, conveying that the department head was looking for her and asking her to go to the department head's office immediately

The man's brow furrowed even more tightly as he stiffly uttered two words: "Chrysanthemum?"

Yes, please remember to clean the toilet three times

"Who is it?" After a moment of daze, An Jiemo slowly uttered these two words

Anjie looked slightly innocent: "What happened at the café near my house?"

What should I do

Thinking quickly, Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth and made a decisive decision to take the initiative. She rushed forward and shouted at the department head: "Teacher, it is all his fault. This person knocked me down, damaged the manhole cover, and then fled. This is the reason I did not attend class a few days ago!"

What a broken manhole cover

It is actually quite simple to find An Jiemo's address; one just needs to open his private Weibo. From the locations that An Jiemo occasionally tags, Lin Chuxia quickly deduces the general area of An Jiemo's residence

However, Lin Chuxia, feeling guilty, did not dare to look at the other person even once. How could it be that she encountered the Infiniti man face to face here!

Gu Jiu You pressed the accelerator, and after a long while, he stared straight ahead and uttered two words: "flesh"

The back of the phone features a pattern that was very popular 4 years ago; you must have saved a lot of money to have bought it, right? An Jiemu's gaze was gentle, and he smiled slightly

Two days ago, An Jiemo said that in order to celebrate her finally being admitted to university, she wanted to personally accompany her to school for registration. However, since the two of them had only been online best friends all along, Lin Chuxia politely declined.

Damn it! She really thought that a physical repayment was necessary, how terrible!

In an instant, Lin Chuxia felt a surge of fear and trepidation, for the car driven by the other party was an Infiniti! Even if she were to be sold, she would still be unable to repay it!

The Tokyo leopard print chocolate banana cake is on sale today at a 15% discount This title alone is enough to make Lin Chuxia speed forward on her small bicycle

What, what! The flesh?

At that moment, Gu Jiuyou slammed on the brakes, swiftly turned off the engine without even glancing to the side, and commanded her: "Get out of the car"

Lin Chuxia was diligently wiping the large decorative vase while muttering to herself, "Really, I am clearly a promising new student of this academy, so why am I doing the work of a cleaning lady!"

Seeing her standing there in a daze, An Jiemo opened the car door and gestured to her: "Get in the car."

Hmph, after scolding me without reason until I was drenched in humiliation, you actually come to ask me out. An Jiemu, oh An Jiemu, I would be doing myself a disservice if I didn't stir up some trouble.

It is worth mentioning that Lin Chuxia's acquaintance with An Jiemo was purely a matter of chance

After a long struggle, Lin and Tu Shuxia sat beside each other, drenched in sweat, panting heavily, glaring resentfully at the manhole cover, and occasionally stomping on it with their feet.

Did I hear that correctly! Her screenwriting mentor is actually a desperate lecher!

Suddenly, Lin Chuxia remembered her phone. Just as she was about to step forward to retrieve it, an Infiniti came rushing towards her, and then—one of the Infiniti's wheels fell into a manhole that had no cover.

When it comes to Gu Jiu You, Lin Chuxia is filled with anger, so she does not mind An Jiemo's previous rudeness and immediately exclaims: "You have no idea, this guy has a grudge against me, yet the department head actually assigned him to be my screenwriting mentor. Do you know? He actually ordered me to do a day's worth of housework at his home under the guise of being a mentor!"

Gu Jiu You ignored Lin Chu Xia, quickly walked towards the Infiniti, opened the passenger door, then turned and grabbed her by the back of her collar, throwing her into the car. Only then did he lower his head and say: "Since money cannot compensate, then let the body repay."

Store name

Hello, Anjiemo, I am fine.

It is Anjiemo

After searching for approximately half an hour, Lin Chuxia finally found the café named "Flower Riddle." She stood at the entrance of the café, gazing at the shimmering metallic door in the night market, slightly furrowing her brow. Even though the café's exterior walls were a low-key, dark coffee color, they could not conceal the opulence of the door.

The mobile phone on the table is indeed quite worn out. It is not that Lin Chuxia does not want to replace it; she is simply too lazy to do so. Having used the phone for 4 years, she sees no reason to discard it as long as it still functions. Frugality is a virtue, and for her, being able to spend less money is very important

His voice was somewhat cold, instantly freezing Lin Chuxia in place, leaving her standing there as if her feet were gripped by ice and snow.

After a long time, when Lin Chuxia was on the verge of collapse, Gu Jiuyou finally spoke to her: "When will the compensation for the damage to my car be given?"

Gu Jiu You raised his head to interrupt Lin Chu Xia's words: "Call me mentor"

Along the way, the two engaged in casual conversation, and time seemed to pass quickly; before they knew it, they had arrived at Guangwei Academy

However, after a long time, there was still no response to the sound. Lin Chuxia, puzzled, moved her ear away from the manhole cover and then looked into the sewer through the grate above it. The sewer was dimly lit; if it weren't for a little sunlight filtering in, Lin Chuxia would not have been able to see her phone at all

Puh! Lin Chuxia was suddenly choked by her own saliva, panicking as she grasped the car door handle, "I... I want to get out of the car!"

However, as she slightly raised her head, Lin Chuxia caught sight of the man's face, and her heart immediately skipped a beat with a "thud".

"Pfft—" An Jia Mo laughed out loud, then said thoughtfully, "You look exhausted and haven't eaten anything, right? Let me treat you."

Gu Jiu You was just finishing his evening shift when he saw Lin Chuxia with the boy next to her, and he inexplicably felt displeased. Moreover, Lin Chuxia even shot him a glare, causing his brows to slightly furrow in response.

After speaking, the call was abruptly ended

Compensation? The words "compensation" suddenly filled Lin Chuxia's mind, and she gasped in shock

An Jiemu glanced at her with a sidelong look: "Age does not permit it"

God knows that this leopard print cake can only be ordered at the Tokyo Skytree, and the authorized store that is currently offering discounts is doing so as a promotion for its recent opening

I am here to teach you a lesson!" Lin Chuxia said with righteous indignation, "I was already quite angry today and wanted to call you to discuss it, but you, this guy, actually insulted me and hung up the phone. I said, have you drunk too much coffee and become overly bold?"

Thinking of this, she became furious and shouted: "Gu Jiuyou, you..."

Lin Chuxia was lost in thought when the sudden ringing of her phone abruptly interrupted her. She impatiently withdrew one hand, took out her phone, and said in a hurried voice: "Hello, speak quickly if there's something to say"

Before I could even lament my misfortune, a faint sound carried through the wind

Bang

"Alright." Lin Chuxia did not refuse

Our school does not mind that you are older

After watching the girl flee in panic, An Jiemo, who was still sitting on the ground after being kicked down, surprisingly laughed while holding his stomach

Hello? Xiaochuxia, what is wrong? Are you okay?

Hearing this, Lin Chuxia was taken aback and asked, "How did you know?"

As a result, Lin Chuxia was thrown off her bicycle and landed by the roadside. After regaining her composure, Lin Chuxia looked back at the path she had taken and realized that the bicycle had directly run over a small pothole in the road.

01

However, after her repeated apologies, the man remained frowning and continued to say nothing. Lin Chuxia did not dare to look up at him again; at that moment, she felt that she might be pointed at and asked for compensation!

Here is the most luxurious café in Area L—Hua Mi. She is uncertain whether the waitstaff will expel her due to her white shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes

An Jiemu answered the phone, somewhat surprised: "Xiao Chuxia, why are you calling me?"

Please come in

Suddenly, Gu Jiu You continued the conversation: "You can't possibly think that I really want you to repay with your body, can you?"

There was no one in front of or behind the desk. She slightly tilted her head and noticed that the department head and a man in a suit, who had his back to her, were sitting on the two sofas against the wall. Of course, Lin Chuxia had no interest in the man; she immediately lowered her head and took small steps to move in front of the department head.

Gu Jiu You stepped forward slowly, casting an ambiguous gaze upon her, making her feel increasingly uncomfortable under his scrutiny

When his voice came out, Lin Chuxia was somewhat shocked. Early? Isn't it quite late now? Lin Chuxia, who had not yet reacted, could not discern anything. She was just puzzled, wondering if Gu Jiuyou had just spoken, while the other party had already driven away.

Taking his seat in the driver's position, he saw Lin Chuxia sitting upright in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but joke, "Don't be so nervous, it was just a bump on the roof, I won't make you pay for it"

Lin Chuxia certainly knew that students in the directing and producing major would follow a fixed mentor for their studies, but... she never expected it to be him! She suddenly felt that her future days would be quite difficult, as this person would surely seek revenge both in professional and personal matters!

"Nonsense!" Lin Chuxia exclaimed, her nostrils flaring. "I had a rough day with Gu Jiuyou today, and you actually hung up on me, telling me not to bother you!"

Night has fallen, and as the glow of the sunset fades, the entire city begins to take on a dreamy quality. Considering that An Jiemo might not be at home playing games at this hour, and since she has not found the specific building and unit of his residence, Lin Chuxia, standing by the unfamiliar street, immediately dialed An Jiemo's phone number

Subsequently, without waiting for him to speak, the quick-witted Lin Chuxia swiftly reached out and took a bouquet of chrysanthemums from a passing flower girl, then, in a pleasing manner, stuffed it into the man's arms, saying: "I apologize, all the money I have is only enough to buy this bouquet of flowers, please graciously accept it, my lord"

02

Ah

Puff!

Having finished speaking, Lin Chuxia, who had already found the best escape route, immediately took off running

The gazes of the two individuals met, and in that moment, Lin Chuxia recalled the scenes of being enslaved during the day, prompting her to impulsively glare at him.

This is called labor force repayment, is it not good! Clearly, it is a very famous screenwriter, why use such misleading terminology

Little Early Summer, you are nothing like what you are on the internet, you really startled me just now, hahaha..." As she laughed and cried, An Jiemo crawled up from underground

After trudging for half an hour, Lin Chuxia finally reached the intersection from Gu Jiuyou's villa, and waited for about another half an hour before a taxi arrived. Although she felt pained by the fare, there was no other choice; in this "remote wilderness," she had no way to return without walking or taking a taxi. As she thought of Gu Jiuyou's unpleasant face, the exhausted Lin Chuxia was filled with grievances that needed to be vented, so she dialed An Jiemo's number.

Lin Chuxia cautiously raised her eyes and looked up. The man was dressed in an Armani suit, appearing exquisite and minimalist yet not lacking in elegance. She lifted her gaze further, noticing that the person before her had tousled hair and wore a pair of rimless glasses perched on his nose, adding a touch of sharpness. The dark pupils behind the lenses resembled a bottomless abyss, cold yet exuding a mysterious allure. She found herself somewhat entranced, but quickly regained her composure, solely because the man was regarding her with an expression full of displeasure. She lifted her gaze again, observing that the person before her had tousled hair and wore a pair of rimless glasses perched on his nose, adding a touch of sharpness. The dark pupils behind the lenses resembled a bottomless abyss, cold yet exuding a mysterious allure. She found herself somewhat entranced, but quickly regained her composure, solely because the man was regarding her with an expression full of displeasure.

"I don't want it; my own phone works just fine. Why would I need to use yours?" Lin Chuxia naturally declined and then asked him, "Also, are you really that busy?"

What are you saying?" The man sitting on the high stool glanced over coldly at me while looking at the computer.

Yes

Lin Chuxia grew increasingly angry as she thought about it, and she lifted her foot to stomp on the manhole cover twice with force. However, she could not give up this old flip phone, after all, it had been four years, and there were feelings attached! Moreover, it was not broken, and buying a new phone would also cost money

In an instant, before the echo of the rallying cry meant to boost momentum and strength had faded, Lin Chuxia let out a panicked scream that was several decibels higher than the previous one. Immediately after, she flew backward while clutching the manhole cover. This time, Lin Chuxia finally managed to lift the manhole cover, but before she could feel any joy, a sharp pain shot through her rear from having fallen twice, and she couldn't help but cry out in distress.

Lin Chuxia appeared to be abandoned, gazing tearfully at An Jiemo. However, as she played her role, she couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration: upon closer inspection, An Jiemo had a delicate appearance, with soft contours and refined features. This beauty was truly enough to evoke envy even among girls.

03

What! This is not scientific! How can the Infiniti man be her screenwriting mentor

Ah

To avoid misidentifying someone, she deliberately pulled out a blurry photo from her phone. After confirming it was correct, she became extremely agitated

"Fool, such an obvious matter can be understood just by thinking about it," An Jiamei said with a smile, casually handing a mobile phone to Lin Chuxia. "I often receive calls from strangers on this phone, and sometimes I am too busy to answer. Could you please help me answer it until the caller stops? Is that alright?"

Lin Chuxia chuckled and said, "Why not try to get in next year and be my junior?"

She continued to shuffle forward with small steps, peeking her head out towards the gate of the small courtyard, and weakly spoke: "Do we really have to go in?"

Lin Chuxia, upon hearing this, rolled her eyes in silence.

Rubbing her injured bottom, Lin Chuxia once again harbored resentment towards the manhole cover

Thinking that Lin Chuxia was guessing he had come to inquire about her recent situation, she, preoccupied with thoughts of the cake, had no time for a detailed conversation with him. Thus, she directly interrupted his words, saying: "Alright, alright, I have successfully registered at school, and I am currently busy with something very important. I will get back to you later... ah..."

It has been known for a long time that An Jiamei and she should be from the same city, as there are many similarities in their conversations. However, neither of them mentioned meeting, so they both pretended to be from different places. Of course, Lin Chuxia did not want to know too much about the other person's privacy, so she did not pay much attention to it at the beginning

Uh... the girl seemed a bit embarrassed, and awkwardly said to An Jiemo, "I'm sorry, let's talk about our matters next time. I have something to attend to today, so I will leave first"

Uh... I am very sorry! I truly apologize! This incident was entirely caused by me, and I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience it has caused you

Considering that An Jiemo was playing games at home, Lin Chuxia directly instructed the driver to head to a certain location in Area L

04

Having said that, he tossed his head and rolled up his sleeves to cover his eyes, appearing to be in a state of utter agony

At this thought, Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth, instantly switching to a tearful expression as she rushed over, kicking his chair over with one foot, and pointing at the girl while saying to An Jiemo: "Is it because of her that you broke up with me?"

However, just as she exited the administrative building, Gu Jiu You called out to her from behind: "Lin Chuxia"

Lin Chuxia's head was like a chick pecking at grains: "Yes, that's right, teacher, it's him!"

Lin Chuxia, I do not wish to know about the entanglements between you. From now on, this is your screenwriting mentor—Gu Jiuyou. Mentor Gu's primary occupation is not that of a teacher; he has come to serve as a screenwriting instructor at the invitation of the school. The department head pushed up the glasses on his nose, and a glimmer of light flashed across the lenses.

Unfortunately, Gu Jiu You did not take her seriously at all; instead, he accelerated. As a result, her entire body was thrust backward, and her back firmly hit the seat cushion. The impact was not significant, but her back still felt a slight pain. Seeing that there was no way to escape, Lin Chuxia had no choice but to pretend to be obedient

The chair of Anjiamei fell to the ground once again, and he immediately landed on the floor in a strange, twisted position with his four legs in the air

Lin Chuxia shot an awkward glance over and said, "Do you dare?"

I initially intended to settle the matter quickly, and as soon as I got the phone, I hurried off to buy a cake. In retrospect, there was simply not enough time.

After finishing the cleaning and coming out from Gu Jiuyou's house, it was already evening. The sky was filled with orange clouds, and she felt both exhausted and hungry. ... But it was not possible ... . ... She still had to return to the dormitory, as Lord Gu had decreed that she must study the structure of the script today

Lin Chuxia jumped up and asked suspiciously, "How did you know it was me?"

Gu Jiu You walked to the car door, intending to open it, but found that the girl inside was gripping the door handle tightly. He slightly tilted his head, furrowed his brow, and threatened, "If you don't get out of the car, I will lock the doors. I won't be responsible if you suffocate inside."

"Yes, chrysanthemum... chrysanthemum?" Lin Chuxia's awkward smile suddenly turned into a flustered gasp of surprise. In the next moment, she quietly stepped back while forcing a smile, saying, "Hehe, um... chrysanthemum... chrysanthemum is quite good, really quite good, and... and it can also be used to brew tea!"

But I find it distasteful that the senior is younger than me

When the bewildered gaze was directed at the screenwriter mentor, he managed to utter two words: "Clean up." Later, perhaps realizing that these two words were insufficient for the dim-witted Lin Chuxia to understand the intention of his visit, he added a few more sentences: "I just moved in here. Although I hired a cleaning company to tidy up the room, it has probably gathered some dust since I arrived a few days late. Your task today is to help me clean this room."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth and hung up the phone

At this moment, her bangs had already been blown into a center part by the wind, revealing her adorable round face

At this moment, An Jiemo stared at him with wide eyes in astonishment, blinking in confusion, which added a touch of cuteness to her expression

Thus, after rolling up her sleeves, Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth, firmly grasped the handle of the manhole cover, and began to pull with all her might. However, despite exerting nearly all her strength, Lin Chuxia was unable to lift the manhole cover.

Lin Chuxia, who had been "disdained," shot him a glance, but as her gaze shifted, she saw the approaching Infiniti and Gu Jiuyou inside the car

Lin Chuxia was taken aback; she had not finished speaking! Which misfortune had she stumbled upon? At the beginning of the semester, she had accidentally gotten her car stuck in a drain, and today, the person had come to her door, and it turned out to be her screenwriter mentor. This was not too much to bear; she accepted it! However, after spending an entire afternoon cleaning the large house and being exhausted to the bone, she called An Jiemo seeking comfort, only for this guy to scold her and hang up the phone?

An hour and a half later, Lin Chuxia finally got off the car

It seemed that Lin Chuxia saw that Infiniti in Gu Jiuyou's eyes. She closed her eyes briefly and took a deep breath. After suppressing her anger, she forced herself to ask him in a respectful tone: "Professor Gu, may I ask if you mean to clean the entire house?"

Having said that, Lin Chuxia hurriedly left the boxing gym and headed straight for the administration building

No need for that. Anjiemo smiled, appearing completely unconcerned. It's getting late, and it's quite far from here to Guangwei Academy. Let me take you back.

Thinking of this, Lin Chuxia took out a photo from her phone that was extremely blurry and said with a sly smile: "An Jiemo, it is you who have angered me, so you cannot blame me"

This fellow, this fellow actually brought her to the entrance of a desolate villa!

Lin Chuxia took 3 minutes to walk from the small courtyard into Gu Jiuyou's home. During this time, she was constantly hesitating whether to knock Gu Jiuyou down as soon as she entered the door to preserve her innocence. However, before she could reach a conclusion, she was suddenly blinded by something flying towards her. When she took it off, she realized it was a piece of cloth... a rag...

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chuxia, feeling puzzled, turned to the senior who was drinking water beside her and said, "Senior, I have something to attend to, so I will leave first. Let's have another three hundred rounds next time!"

No, nothing at all, hahaha. Lin Chuxia laughed to cover her unease

Having rested sufficiently, Lin Chuxia let out a sigh, then got up, grasped the grate over the sewer with both hands, steadied her stance, and exerted all her strength.

Isn't this like sending a sheep into a tiger's den! ... Even if Lin Chuxia lacks beauty and figure, she shouldn't be unjustly accused of having a teacher-student romance with her screenwriter mentor ...! ... Pfft, pfft, pfft, there is absolutely no romance, okay!

She nodded belatedly and climbed into the car. Perhaps due to her nervousness, her head struck the roof of the car with a thud, prompting her to involuntarily let out a low whimper: "Ah..."

Lin Chuxia did not care at all, directly sitting next to An Jiemo, holding the hand of the girl opposite her, tearfully saying: "I am his girlfriend, we have been together for 3 years, during which he has cheated on me repeatedly, and I have forgiven him. I know you are also a victim, but I beg you, please do not disrupt my happiness, I... cannot lose him!"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Chuxia nervously stepped into the café with a voice saying "Welcome"

At this moment, the phone was submerged in water, and the screen had gone completely black. Lin Chuxia thought that it was probably due to water damage that the call had been automatically disconnected

Lin Chuxia immediately bowed and apologized, saying: "Um... I didn't mean it last time, and as a mere student, I can't afford such a large sum of money... As my screenwriting mentor, could you be magnanimous and forgive me..."

An Jiemuo feigned weakness: "I dare not, I dare not"

The other party let out a muffled laugh: "Listening to our little early summer's voice, it certainly does not sound like one filled with boundless hope stepping into university to begin anew..."

The real reason is that every time the agent calls him, it disturbs his sleep. However, if he chooses to turn off his phone, then An Jiemo will be waiting for him, and he probably estimates that the door of his house will be taken down. If it were Lin Chuxia who took it away, he could justifiably tell the agent that his phone was lost

After a short while, when Lin Chuxia saw the seemingly expensive car, she swallowed hard in surprise. She had thought that An Jiemo's "sending" meant sharing a taxi, but unexpectedly...

After having eaten and drunk to satisfaction, Lin Chuxia suddenly remembered the girl from earlier and felt that perhaps she had been a bit excessive. Thus, she said with a hint of guilt: "By the way, was that girl your girlfriend? She must have misunderstood you. Would you like me to help explain and win her back?"

After a long silence, An Jiemo finally spoke: "I think I remember when your call came in. At that time, I was arguing with someone unimportant, so... Also, Gu Jiu You is..."

What are you busy with

For some reason, this man's appearance closely resembles that of the man who recently drove an Infiniti's wheel into an uncovered manhole.

Gu Jiuyao raised his eyebrows and said, "Hurry up."

Is this guy secretly dating!

Seeing Lin Chuxia's satisfied expression as she drank fresh milk and ate cake, An Jiemo smiled lightly, and then as if recalling something, she asked her: "By the way, didn't your phone fall into the sewer a few days ago? Is it still usable?"

The department head frowned upon hearing this: "Hit-and-run?"

After receiving the sound that permitted entry, Lin Chuxia cautiously turned the doorknob. As the door moved, her field of vision gradually expanded.

Listening to Lin Chuxia vehemently distort the facts while impolitely pointing her index finger at his nose, the man did not blink at all; he simply stared at her comically exaggerated gestures caused by her anxious explanations.

Lin Chuxia immediately woke up, glanced out the window, and suddenly covered her chest with both hands

Hmm. Lin Chuxia bit into the cake while using her other hand to take her phone out of her bag and place it on the table, speaking in a muffled voice, "Although it has been severely damaged, it can still make calls."

Before long, An Jiemo brought fresh milk and cake for Lin Chuxia from a nearby dessert shop

After scanning the sparsely populated café, Lin Chuxia fixed her gaze on a target—a man and a woman sitting in the corner

Lin Chuxia let out a breath, slowed her pace, and walked towards the administration building while panting heavily. After finding the office of the department head, she knocked on the door and pondered to herself: the department head probably didn't have anything important to discuss with her.

As the car entered through the main gate of the academy and continued forward, An Jiemo slowed down the vehicle, looking around and couldn't help but exclaim: "Your school truly lives up to its reputation; the environment is excellent, and the architecture is quite distinctive, even at night it retains its charm"

"Hmm? Besides asking me where I am today, have you made any phone calls?" An Jiemo asked earnestly, tilting his head.

As the two cars brushed past each other, Lin Chuxia heard Gu Jiuyou's faint voice saying: "Good morning, Lin Chuxia"

I actually ... ... '' The girl opened her mouth, wanting to explain

Staring blankly at the tilted Infiniti for several seconds, Lin Chuxia finally came to her senses and then consciously rushed to stand in front of the car, beginning to repeat the monotonous dialogue— "I am sorry! I am sorry! I am sorry!"

Guangwei College is relatively large in City C, with three areas: East, West, and South. It is said that it takes more than two hours to leisurely ride a bicycle around the campus. The entire campus, except for the administrative building, is about a 3-minute walk from the main gate. To reach other teaching buildings and dormitories, it takes at least half an hour on foot, and sometimes even longer. By bus, it takes about 10 minutes. Additionally, the school provides dedicated shuttle buses to facilitate students' travel to teaching buildings and dormitories, but there are time restrictions; if the time limit is exceeded, students will have to walk.

"Where are you?" Lin Chuxia gritted her teeth, yet she made a great effort to suppress her anger

"Teacher, my ears are having problems, could you please repeat what you just said?" Lin Chuxia asked in surprise as she dug at her ears

Caught between two choices, Lin Chuxia loosened her grip and ultimately chose the physical path...! ... Was it true that she had been driven to such a desperate point with no way out!

Before the words were finished, as the front of the car tilted, screams erupted.

Lin Chuxia followed the sound and soon discovered that the old, worn flip phone had rolled into the sewer, while An Jiemo's voice was coming from beneath the manhole cover. Frustrated, Lin Chuxia let out a helpless sigh, leaned over the manhole cover, and responded in that direction

Busy..." An Jiemo blinked, choosing to conceal the fact that he was a second-tier star in the entertainment industry. After that, he smiled and said: "Busy being bothered by others"

Since the last time when he sent a large bouquet of chrysanthemums to the male lead of Infiniti and then fled the scene, Lin Chuxia has not returned to that corner at the south gate of Guangwei Academy. Even the bicycle parked by the roadside has been lost, so now she can only choose to run frantically to find the department head

Four years ago, Lin Chuxia, who was still in the third year of junior high school, had a great fondness for the PSP, but she did not have enough money. Thus, she turned to the second-hand market. After searching online for a long time, she finally settled on a PSP that An Jiemo had just listed for sale, which had not been on the market for two days. However, after everything was ready, Lin Chuxia never managed to finalize a time to meet for the transaction. It was not until three months later, when Lin Chuxia graduated from junior high, that she had a conflict with her parents over their opposition to her studying Taekwondo. Coincidentally, during this time, An Jiemo contacted Lin Chuxia to ask if she still wanted the PSP; if not, he would sell it to someone else. At that moment, Lin Chuxia felt as if she had grasped a lifeline, and she kept telling An Jiemo about her parents' disapproval of her studying Taekwondo. An Jiemo, having no choice, could only comfort her. This opportunity led to An Jiemo becoming her close male friend.

However, the other party answered the phone and spoke to her in a tone that had not been heard in four years: "Stop calling me over and over again, it's annoying! I need to relax, don't call me while I'm playing games, OK?"

The man in the car slightly furrowed his brow and then opened the door to get out

Flower riddle ah. How ... ...

The car raced along the road, and no matter how comfortable the seats were, it felt like a constraint for Lin Chuxia. The music playing from the speakers was a slightly raspy tune, a disc from the once-popular band Autumn Tears from years ago. ... Unconsciously, as she listened to the slow-paced song, Lin Chuxia had already chosen a comfortable position and closed her eyes ...

Hello, this is...
