Chapter 2061: Chapter 2061: Reluctant to Return (28)

You Zixi woke up early in the morning and ate a mouthful of dog food. Apart from marveling at himself as a divine wingman, he also felt quite heartbroken.

[You Zixi: Why have you found love while I’m still single?]

[You Zixi: Am I not handsome?]

[You Zixi: I don’t accept this!]

[Chi Gui: ...]

You Zixi sent a dozen messages on his own over there while Chi Gui turned off his phone and looked at Chuzheng.

Chi Gui remembered something: ”Didn’t you say before that you didn’t have a home?”

Chuzheng replied without lifting her head: ”With you, I have one.”

Chi Gui: ”...”

I feel like you’re flirting with me, but I have no evidence.

”Ahem...” Chi Gui stifled the bit of joy in his heart. ”I’m serious.”

Chuzheng nodded solemnly: ”I’m serious too.”

Chi Gui: ”...”

Is that even allowed?

Chi Gui stood up and sat on the ground next to Chuzheng. Before he could speak, Chuzheng pulled him up: ”You want to get sick?”

Chi Gui was briefly confused: ”Aren’t you sitting too?” Also, the room temperature is high, so sitting on the floor won’t be cold.

”Am I the same as you?” Chuzheng pushed him onto the sofa.

”My body isn’t that weak, it was just an accident...” Chi Gui tried to salvage his image.

”Oh.”

Chuzheng covered him with a blanket again.

Chi Gui: ”...”

What was I just asking?

”I just bought this place.” Chuzheng explained and then suddenly said, ”Next semester, I won’t stay on campus.”

Just bought it huh...

Chi Gui observed the house’s location, which is very close to school, a typical school district house, and a high-end one too.

She seems... pretty wealthy.

Chi Gui suddenly felt a bit panicked. What to do if your girlfriend is richer than you?

”Why did you buy this place? You’ll graduate soon, and then go to university, right?”

”Chi Gui, I’m not going to live on campus anymore.” Chuzheng repeated.

”Ah...” Chi Gui was momentarily stunned, then understood. ”It’s very close to school, even if you’re not living on campus.”

Chuzheng took a deep breath and bluntly asked, ”Do you want to live with me?”

”...”

Chi Gui looked at Chuzheng in shock.

After a moment, he stammered: ”We just started dating, moving in together... isn’t that too soon?”

Chuzheng silently went into the bedroom.

Chi Gui breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could finish, Chuzheng came out again.

”Access card, keys...” Chuzheng counted the items to Chi Gui one by one: ”Keep these safe. I hope you can move in with me. Don’t worry, I won’t touch you.”

The Good Person Card has to be kept within sight.

Chi Gui’s heart trembled - what kind of daring remarks are these?

Are you even a girl?!

Chi Gui was internally somewhat swayed, but ultimately refused: ”You still need to study, I don’t want to disturb you.”

”You won’t disturb my studies.”

Chi Gui: ”...” The academic underachiever feels offended.

Chi Gui didn’t agree with Chuzheng’s suggestion and returned the keys and access card to her.

”Chi Gui, besides me, do you have anywhere else to go?” Chuzheng suddenly asked.

These words were somewhat piercing; Chi Gui gripped the keys tighter, his gaze gradually darkening.

Chuzheng pulled his wrist, drawing him closer, and gently hugged him: ”This place will always only belong to you.”

”Always?” Chi Gui’s voice was low: ”Who knows what will happen in the future?”

His parents also originally came together because they liked each other, but later it turned into a mess. What’s forever...

”I promise. Chi Gui, trust me.”

—Trust me.

Deep inside, a voice seemed to repeat this phrase. He had heard it somewhere before...

Trust who?

Chi Gui’s hand slowly lifted and finally fell on Chuzheng’s waist, gradually wrapping the person in his arms with force.

He said, ”Okay.”

I trust you.

With winter break over, students returned to campus one after another.

”So, you ended up living together?” You Zixi grasped the key point after listening to Chi Gui’s brief account.

”...Yeah.”

”...”

You Zixi gave Chi Gui a thumbs up.

Awesome!

You Zixi felt it necessary to educate his brother on certain safety tools.

”...She won’t touch me.”

”Huh?”

Chi Gui realized his words were a bit off and quickly changed topics: ”I’m going to handle the day student procedures.”

”Hold on!” You Zixi wasn’t easily fooled: ”What do you mean she won’t touch you? Brother Chi, you’re the guy here!!”

Chi Gui: ”...”

He was just being careless.

After babbling half the day, You Zixi was quieted by a warning glare from Chi Gui.

Chi Gui again warned You Zixi: ”Don’t let anyone know about this. I don’t want it affecting her studies.”

”Got it, got it, Dongyang is full of good students anyway. But... Brother Chi, what are you going to do when she goes to college?”

”If you both end up in different places, that’s long-distance. Do you know how high the break-up rate is for long-distance relationships?”

”I don’t know. We’ll see.”

He hadn’t considered this before, but now he has to think about it...

Chi Gui started trying to study; it’s the second semester of his sophomore year, still a year and a half to go. If he works hard, maybe he can make it.

But Chi Gui had fallen behind too much, reading felt like reading a foreign language.

Forget it.

He’s just not meant for academia.

Chuzheng sensed Chi Gui’s restlessness.

After school, Chuzheng asked him: ”What’s up with you lately?”

”Nothing much.” Chi Gui swiped his card to enter the building.

Once inside the elevator, Chi Gui stared at the changing floor numbers: ”Baby, would you think less of me for not being good at school, for not having prospects in the future?”

Chuzheng glanced at him: ”No.”

”But you’re so outstanding, once you’re in college you’ll meet even more outstanding people...”

”Chi Gui.” Chuzheng interrupted him: ”I’ve said before, you are the only one. The person beside me will always be you, and can only be you.”

Chi Gui met Chuzheng’s gaze and smiled: ”Yes, I’ll try my best.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Actually, there’s no need, I could support a hundred of you easily.

Considering the Good Person Card’s fragile heart, Chuzheng didn’t say it aloud.

I’ve sacrificed so much for baby’s mental and physical health.

No need to say anymore.

It’s all tears of bitterness.

Chi Gui started thinking about what he’ll do in the future, appearing busy every day.

Among You Zixi and the group of academic slackers, Chi Gui suddenly stood out.

You Zixi felt he was close to becoming obsolete...

On the verge of ’unemployment,’ You Zixi suddenly received an invitation from Qin Qiao, asking if he wanted to join the drama club.

You Zixi couldn’t go dominate the campus with Chi Gui and was idling around.

Thinking the drama club must have a lot of girls, You Zixi figured it might be worthwhile and eagerly went to join Qin Qiao.

The second semester saw notable harmony between Dongyang and Huahai students.

The frequent chaos from the last semester, occurring every three days with fights every five days, seldom happened anymore, leaving the teachers greatly relieved.
