Lin Yu had already experienced the extent of Huang Feiya's patience.
Even if he didn't have time to go out with her today,
by tomorrow morning, he would probably still receive her usual greeting message.
This woman's persistence far exceeded that of anyone else around him.
No wonder the system's evaluation of her had two sides.
After a brief reply, Lin Yu continued to scroll through his other messages.
The most eye-catching one was a message from his senior, Fang Xinran!
Fang Xinran had already arrived in the south.
Instead of going straight back to her hometown, she chose to settle down temporarily in a bustling southern city.
The message contained a photo of her newly rented apartment.
Sunlit and bright.
Just like the new life she was about to begin.
Although their encounter had been brief, Lin Yu couldn't help but smile when he saw the photo.
It was as if the warm sunlight from that small rented room was shining on him as well.
Lin Yu didn't say much; he simply sent a "Congratulations!"
...
At 7:20 AM.
In the lobby on the first floor of the apartment.
Lin Yu walked slowly downstairs, listening to the sounds in the lobby.
He didn't rush to find Xia Yiwei, who was sitting and resting on the sofa. Instead, he first observed who exactly was on the first floor.
Going out with Xia Yiwei today was a secret that couldn't be made public.
If he ran into other roommates, he would inevitably have to come up with an excuse to explain.
Given Xia Yiwei's IQ, expecting her to come up with a good explanation was absolutely hopeless.
To find a suitable excuse, Lin Yu would have to step up himself.
Fortunately.
The situation was much simpler than Lin Yu had imagined.
At such an early hour, there weren't many roommates in the lobby.
Only the two aunts, Chen Qimeng and Du Ruxue, were there.
The others were nowhere to be seen.
Lin Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Explaining things to the two aunts would be much less of a hassle.
Moreover.
As long as Aunt Ruxue didn't act up and didn't pry too much, it basically wouldn't arouse any suspicion.
Over the past few days, Aunt Ruxue's condition seemed pretty good.
Ever since Maomao completed the challenge and officially moved into the apartment.
It seemed Aunt Ruxue hadn't made trouble for Lin Yu anymore.
Most likely, she wouldn't today either.
After all.
Her adopted daughter would be living in the apartment for a long time.
If she continued to cause trouble for Lin Yu, wasn't she worried that Lin Yu might find an opportunity to get back at her through Maomao?
"Little... Little Lin Yu!"
"Hehe, you're finally up?"
Hearing the footsteps, Xia Yiwei stood up excitedly to greet him.
Because she was a bit too excited,
the words "Little Master" almost slipped out.
With Sister Qimeng and Aunt Ruxue both present, calling him Little Master would be somewhat embarrassing.
Her greeting made Chen Qimeng's eyes light up, and she poked her head out from the kitchen.
"Little Yu, breakfast will be ready soon."
"You and Weiwei can sit and chat for a bit. Just wait a moment."
Even as she spoke, Chen Qimeng's hands didn't stop moving.
She kept stirring the eggs in the bowl, looking like she was getting ready to make egg drop soup.
Lin Yu walked into Chen Qimeng's line of sight, gave her an apologetic smile, and said:
"Aunt Qimeng, I might not have the luck to enjoy it today."
"I forgot to tell you last night, but I have to go out with Sister Weiwei early this morning."
"She has something she needs my help with, and we have to leave early."
Xia Yiwei nodded along, confirming Lin Yu's words.
Hearing this.
Du Ruxue, who was in the dining room, put down her water glass.
Her gaze didn't fall on Lin Yu, but rather on Xia Yiwei.
Weiwei had something to ask Lin Yu for help with?
What kind of help would a nurse need from a college student?
It sounded like there was something fishy going on between the two of them.
Coupled with Du Ruxue's understanding of Xia Yiwei, she knew full well that this girl definitely wasn't seeking Lin Yu out for anything good.
Just a single sharp look was enough to make Xia Yiwei feel completely overwhelmed.
She quickly averted her eyes, not daring to meet Du Ruxue's gaze.
Xia Yiwei had long since experienced the power of Aunt Ruxue.
She was afraid that even one more glance would expose something.
She absolutely could not let Aunt Ruxue know about her bringing a fake boyfriend home for dinner today.
Otherwise, all it would take was a single phone call from Aunt Ruxue, and her dad would immediately see through the lie.
Wouldn't she be doomed then?

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart?
