Because Shen Li agreed to go with him, Lu'an Xi specially informed Yizi Xin in advance on Saturday morning.

But that night, before going to bed, she felt a bit uneasy again. She dialed Yi Zixin's phone number once more, emphasizing the importance of cleaning up the house, especially not leaving any messy things in plain sight. Luan Xi knew that the other party understood what she meant, so she didn't give any specific examples.

On the other end of the phone, Yi Zixin waited for him to finish speaking, laughing with a deep and meaningful smile.

"Come on, Xi Ge, do you think I don't know? I can't possibly corrupt your beloved Shen Li."

After ending the call, Luan Xi pressed his temple and realized that this conversation was really unnecessary. But he couldn't entirely blame himself, for anything related to Shen Li would always make him overthink things.

Luan Xi didn't have many belongings of her own, so she just sorted out some clothes. As for daily necessities, she could buy them later if needed. As for bedding, Yi Zixin told Luan Xi that there was no need to prepare anything special, as he had a spare set. It was brand new, and he had even put it in the washing machine a few days ago.

Luan Xi opened the car door and placed the luggage in the back seat, then sat in the driver's seat, waiting for Shen Li to come down.

Shen Li upstairs carried a bulging schoolbag, sitting on a small stool next to the shoe cabinet as he put on his shoes. Yan Jiexu observed his appearance with some doubt in her heart, but she didn't ask. She walked Shen Li to the front door and instructed him not to cause trouble for the two people when he arrived there. Shen Li obediently agreed.

After bidding farewell to Yan Jiexu, Shen Li hurriedly descended the stairs of the secure passage, without even bothering to wait for the elevator. Fortunately, it wasn't a tall building, so it wasn't too tiring.

He was a bit excited because no one knew that yesterday evening, when Luan Xi was in the middle of organizing her luggage in her room and was called out by Aunt Yan to discuss something, he quietly sneaked into Luan Xi's room and stuffed a few of his little underwear and socks into the pile of clothes that Luan Xi had already tidied up in her suitcase.

Shen Li's mind was working frantically, even though Luan Xi had moved out starting today, they were still in the same city and not too far apart. Even if the other person didn't come back, he could take the initiative to move there. By then, as long as he checked the new address and the route to the school, there wouldn't be any problem.

Luǎn Xī's car was parked at the doorstep as he watched the child push open the anti-theft door of the building and run towards him.

After the other party got on the car, I discovered that behind the child, there was also a bulging backpack, it looked quite heavy.

Luǎn Xī was feeling puzzled, "Why are you carrying a backpack?"

Shen Li just placed his backpack in front of him and patted it, earnestly explaining, "These are all my snacks. Don't you know that without snacks, my mouth will feel lonely?"

This statement is not wrong. Luanshi didn't think about it in any other way when he heard him say this. After all, the packaging of the puffed food that Shen Li likes to eat is all inflated, so if you put too many in the schoolbag, it will indeed look like this.

Luan Xi reminded him to fasten his seatbelt, then started the navigation and hit the road. After driving for a little over an hour, a phone call came in halfway through the journey. Yi Zixin asked them how much longer it would take on the other end of the line.

Luan Xi was just about to reply when Shen Li, who was standing next to her, politely called out, "Hello, Big Brother," next to the phone she was holding up.

After hearing Shen Li greet him, Yi Zixin seemed to become excited and immediately put aside the original intention of calling. The two of them chatted non-stop, with one person talking and the other responding. The topic of their conversation quickly shifted to Lu Anxi after their initial greetings.

He talked to Shen Li about a lot of things that happened to Luan Xi during his time in college, of course, especially some embarrassing incidents.

Shen Li was amused by him, laughing uncontrollably in his seat, and even giving a thumbs up to Luan Xi.

"……"

Luan Xi had already mentally ripped Yi Zixin into a thousand pieces, but considering that Shen Li was beside him, he couldn't curse or swear. He could only grit his teeth and say with seething anger, "Yi Zixin... do you have no end?"

Yi Zixin chuckled twice, quickly wrapping up the conversation and hanging up the phone before Luan Xi could get angry.

Luan Xi parked the car in an empty parking space in their residential area before turning around and realizing that Shen Li was still leaning in the seat, not yet recovered.

As if noticing Luǎn Xī's gaze, Shěn Lí put down his hand that was rubbing his eyes and looked back with a puzzled expression.

Perhaps because his funny bone had been tickled, there was a glistening layer of moisture in Shen Li's eyes, which were also tinged with a reddish hue.

He even laughed until tears came to his eyes.

Luǎnxī's heart tightened as he quickly averted his gaze.

He seemed to press down on the central locking switch inside the car as if trying to escape, and said to Shen Li, "We've arrived, get out of the car."

Shen Li blinked his eyes, not suspecting anything, and followed Luan Xi off the car.

Yi Zixin lived on the top floor, along with a loft, making it feel a bit empty for one person living alone.

Shen Li sat on the sofa in the living room, sipping water from his cup in small sips. This was the first time he had met Luan Xi's friend, and he was initially a bit nervous. However, after that phone call, all of those feelings completely disappeared.

Yi Zixin has a good personality and is skilled in socializing. He treats Shen Li just as familiarly as on the phone, regarding him completely as a younger brother.

The two of them were discussing the matter of Luanshi moving in.

"Is Lu Xi really saying this about me?"

Shen Li nodded and added, "He said your grades were extremely poor, so he had to come and stay here to assist you."

Yi Zixin smiled cheerfully.

Go on, my brother Xi, what a brilliant excuse you've come up with. I had no idea that someone would actually stay over just to personally tutor me when my grades are so abysmal.

After pondering for a while, Yi Zixin flashed a kind smile towards Shen Li.

"Ah, that's just how he is. He always places great importance on his academic performance, even as a friend, I take it very seriously," he lazily leaned against the back of the sofa and switched to a more easily understood expression, "So, Shen Li, you have to focus all your energy on studying and not let yourself be influenced by the wrong path. This age of yours is a turning point, you mustn't start dating too early."

Shen Li seemed to think that Yi Zixin's words made sense, nodding in agreement. After a while, he suddenly realized that Lu an Xi was no longer in the living room, where they had been chatting for quite a while.

Yi Zixin looked at him like this, probably searching for Luan Xi,'

"Are you looking for Luan Xi?"

"He went back to the room with his suitcase in front to organize his things."

Shen Li: !!!

Oh no! I haven't taken out my little pants from inside!
