Luan Rongrong was afraid that Li Zexuan was getting ignored. If he stayed there till more classmates arrived, it would be bad.
She walked to him. “Wanyu is very introverted. If you call her from the door like this, she won’t come out.”
“Oh… alright,” he said. “Then… I will wait at the usual place after school.” He lowered his head in disappointment.
He then returned to his own classroom.
‘The usual place?’ thought Luan Rongrong. She returned to her seat.
“Wanyu, Li Zexuan said that he’ll wait for you at the usual place after school. Have you both been hanging out? Now you know a big star personally!” Luan Rongrong was even happier than Xie Wanyu.
Xie Wanyu lowered her head. She hadn’t expected Li Zexuan to come all the way to her classroom. ‘What does he mean by this?’
The usual place he mentioned was the wisteria flower rack. ‘Should I go?’
She was so occupied with the thought that she couldn’t pay attention to what Luan Rongrong said.
Xie Wanyu was doubtful about everything. Luan Rongrong said that Li Zexuan was always distant and indifferent to others in the school. Many classmates couldn’t even exchange a few words with him, let alone have a whole conversation. Yet here he was taking the initiative to come and talk to her. “Wanyu, he’s the big star.” Luan Rongrong pulled at Xie Wanyu’s arm.
“Hm,” said Xie Wanyu absentmindedly.
Li Zexuan felt very down when he returned to his class. He decided to turn his disappointment into strength and began reading loudly.
During lunch, Luan Rongrong took her meal tray and sat opposite to Xie
Wanyu.
“Wanyu, Li Zexuan is not only a celebrity but also a top student in the school.
He may not be as good at studies as you, but he is still in the Top 3 in his class. I get why top students want to be friends with other top students,” said Luan Rongrong in a low voice.
‘Top student?’ Xie Wanyu’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Is Li Zexuan that outstanding?’
“His family is super rich. His mother passed away, but he has a stepmother. She is young and very kind. I saw their live broadcast.” Luan Rongrong was feeling a little selfish as well to use it for her own good. If she could also be friends with Li Zexuan via Xie Wanyu, nobody would bully her ever again.
“Oh…
“Why aren’t you saying anything? I will come with you tonight, okay?” Luan Rongrong held Xie Wanyu’s hand.
“We’ll see,” said Xie Wanyu.
At the Li family house, Li Yanchen, who had thought he would be home by night, had only reached that morning due to a delayed flight.
Lin Wan was still asleep at seven in the morning.
Li Yanchen put down his luggage and headed upstairs impatiently. He had missed her too much these last few days.
Lin Wan had only fallen asleep in the early hours of that morning. Li Yanchen quietly opened the door and saw that she was fast asleep.
She was curled up on one side of the bed, leaving the other side empty. From where he stood, she looked so tiny.
Li Yanchen headed to the washroom to take a shower. After showering and changing into a fresh pair of clothes, he lay down on the bed.
He could not help himself. So, he softly caressed her face. Lin Wan’s eyes flew open. “You’re back!”
She wrapped her arms around him tightly.
“Yes,” he said. ‘Were you waiting for me all this time?” He pulled her closer.
Lin Wan nodded. Finally, they were together. The sounds that came from the bedroom the next moment drowned the chirping of the birds outside. Li Yanchen headed to his office two hours later. He was very unwilling.
Lin Wan sat on her bed and opened her laptop.
She felt that she had been exhausting herself for the past two months with Li Yanchen. That her skin was loosening. She needed to nourish herself.
Lin Wan researched all kinds of nutritious herbs and medicines. She placed an order online and applied for a membership at the nearest Health Center. Of course, she also included Li Yanchen in the membership.
At Chenxin, Li Yanchen took a short nap after his meeting. When he woke up, he called Xiao Tianlin.
This was the first time Li Yanchen had taken the initiative to reach out to Xiao Tianlin. It was no wonder that Xiao Tianlin was surprised by the call.
“Brother Li, is the sun shining from the west today?” said Xiao Tianlin with his headphones on.
Li Yanchen narrowed his eyes. “Are you free in the afternoon? Let’s have a cup of coffee together. I have something to ask you.”
“I am indeed free. But Brother Li, you have something to ask me?! You aren’t joking, right?” Xiao Tianlin was surprised.
“I’ll send you the location. It’s half past one.” Li Yanchen did not say anything more.
“Sure. We can talk when we meet.”
After hanging up, Li Yanchen immediately began to regret his decision. ‘Why did I call Xiao Tianlin?!’
Xiao Tianlin sent him a text. “I have postponed my performance this afternoon to meet you. I am worried about you, so I won’t leave until we meet.”
Li Yanchen sighed. ‘Well… men in their 40s have lived through it all. I don’t need to feel embarrassed.’
When Xiao Tianlin went out, Xia MO was still at home. She looked at her husband, who was in a hurry. “Where are you going?”
“To meet Brother Li.”
Xia MO was doubtful. Xiao Tianlin showed her his chat history.
“You and Li Yanchen should hang out more,” she said. “How is it that you have kept no contact after the show? I will transfer some money to you. Be sure to pay the bill by yourself. Be more active with him, alright?” Xia MO smiled and transferred some money to Xiao Tianlin.
“Thank you, honey,” he said. “Drive safe, alright?” He hugged his wife and headed out.
Chenxin was located very close to a café that Li Yanchen had chosen. Li Yanchen had arrived five minutes earlier than the set time. Xiao Tianlin arrived on time, carrying a black bag. He wanted to share his latest treasure with Li
Yanchen.
The two sat down in a private room and ordered coffee.
“Brother Li, this is for you.” Xiao Tianlin took out a coffee-colored paper bag from the bulging black one. “It’s high-grain wine. It’s good for you.”
Li Yanchen understood instantly.
“So… why were you looking for me?” asked Xiao Tianlin.
“I… I have been losing a lot of hair lately,” said Li Yanchen, already regretting his words.
“Did you stay up too late? I told you it’s bad for your hair if you stay up late every night. Is it because you are busy with work or… something else?”
“I am mostly on business trips, so it’s because of work as well. But even when I am home, I finish work late and Lin Wan’s livestream ends late at night. It’s… usually early morning when I go to sleep.” Li Yanchen tried to be as subtle as possible.
“Do you think you are still 28? You need to eat supplements and healthy meals. You cannot survive on one meal per day anymore,” said Xiao Tianlin. He showed Li Yanchen the stuff he had brought with him.
By the time he walked out of the café, Li Yanchen already felt loads better. As long as he followed the instructions and his hair stopped falling, everything would be fine.
At Yun Xi High School, school time was over by nine in the evening. Luan Rongrong held Xie Wanyu’s hand all the way.
“Wanyu, are you going to the “usual place”?”
Xie Wanyu pursed her lips. Her feet instinctively took her toward Xingzhi Tower.
Li Zexuan was both excited and nervous. ‘What if she doesn’t come?’
He packed his bag and told Sun Mingtao that he wanted to go on a walk alone. Sun Mingtao didn’t follow him.
Sun Mingtao told Lu Wenqian about it. As soon as Li Zexuan headed down the stairs, she followed behind.
It took only a few minutes to walk from the classrooms to the Xingzhi Tower.
Xie Wanyu was nervous too. She walked slowly.
Xingzhi Tower was on the opposite side of the dormitories, so very few students ever ventured there after school..
