Shen Xiao Ran waited beside Chen Yuan for the woman to say thank you.

But this person acted like she was giving a tip, throwing the money and turning to leave, with absolutely no manners.

That was Chen Yuan!

He possessed divine power, could easily enter other people's dreams, could heal lame legs, and even change the weather – a god! Would he lower his head and bend his waist for your measly thousand-plus?

He just hadn't reacted earlier, never expecting the other party to be so rude.

Therefore, Shen Xiao Ran decided to get back some face for Chen Yuan.

"Hey!" Shen Xiao Ran called out to the woman, then drove her wheelchair over to her and forcefully stuffed the money back into her hands. "We waited here for a long time on purpose, and you haven't even said thank you to my brother."

The woman was stunned, looking at the girl. Then, she looked at the handsome boy walking over and gradually understood something.

This must have been her brother's idea, having her come over to strike up a conversation.

No one dislikes money.

Besides, this counted as a reward, not a tip. He had every reason to accept it.

So, the truth was only one – he didn't just want the money, or rather, more than wanting the money, he wanted to get to know her.

Were high school students so scheming these days?

The woman's lips gradually curved into a smile.

Wait, what are you smiling about?

Chen Yuan felt like this woman was engaging in mental gymnastics.

He was also a little uncomfortable, after all, this little fairy was too arrogant, not even saying thank you.

But giving money... could also be forgiven.

Of course, since Shen Xiao Ran wanted to stand up for him, he would definitely stand on the side of his acquaintance and also act a little tough.

"Oh," the woman shrugged, then looked at Chen Yuan, smiling as she said, "Thank you."

Hearing this, Shen Xiao Ran felt a little more comfortable.

She knew that if Chen Yuan wanted to use his divine power, earning any amount of money would be easy.

And this person was so disrespectful to him.

Since she said thank you, it was acceptable.

"You're welcome," Chen Yuan also smiled faintly, quite calmly.

"Then take the money too," the woman handed the money back, still smiling.

Now, both face and substance were satisfied.

Was it acceptable now?

"No, I don't need it."

Chen Yuan shook his head, directly refusing her, and touched Shen Xiao Ran's head.

"Chen... Brother Yuan, my mom is here." Shen Xiao Ran saw her mom's Nissan drive to the side of the road, so she gently tugged at his sleeve, reminding him that they could leave.

This woman looked a little too seductive, and pretty women were all very dangerous. She couldn't let her continue to harass Chen Yuan.

Although she was a little jealous of Xia Xin Yu, Shen Xiao Ran was actually helping her fend off Chen Yuan's unwanted attention.

"Okay, let's go home."

Chen Yuan was also quite tough, his gaze not lingering on her assets, nor on the money. He didn't even say goodbye, directly turning around and sending Shen Xiao Ran to her mom.

This action surprised the woman...

Had she really encountered someone who did good deeds without seeking reward, a modern-day Lei Feng?

Or were high school students just so upright and honest?

The little handsome guy was quite individualistic, and his physique was also solid...

Okay, I agree to let you hit on me.

This Chen Yuan seemed to be a truly good person.

Floating beside them, An Ru Xue, after watching this scene, realized that she was indeed too strict with him, always trying to find fault.

But no matter how she looked at it, from his behavior, morality, to his appearance, he was much better than her Ruan Lang.

Faced with such a beauty, one that even she thought was pretty, his eyes hadn't shown any infatuation from beginning to end.

His sweetheart must be a happy person.

Just as she was thinking this, Chen Yuan, after sending the girl to her mom's car, returned to the bus stop.

At this time, the woman who gave the money walked over with a smile, greeting him.

Then, she took out her phone, pulled up her QR code, and after Chen Yuan briefly pondered, he actually took out his phone too...

Aaaaah!

Seeing this, An Ru Xue almost turned into a vengeful ghost.

This man was indeed a scumbag!

Those great qualities of his were all pretenses displayed in front of others, and once his little sister wasn't around, he completely exposed himself.

His true nature was still lustful and greedy.

He thought no one was watching, so he became unscrupulous.

But, I saw it.

Both eyes saw it!

Stretching out her claws (actually her fingernails), An Ru Xue scratched wildly at Chen Yuan's face, trying to kill this fickle man.

Or, the man who was about to become fickle.

But unfortunately, her abilities were weak, and she couldn't scratch him at all.

The biggest punishment she could inflict was messing up his hairstyle or making his food tasteless.

How infuriating! When he brought delicious food to his girlfriend, An Ru Xue even thought he was a rare, considerate good man.

I must continue to follow him!

Even if his food becomes tasteless, she could slightly scare him, making him think there was something wrong with his sense of taste, and then he would go to the hospital and waste a dozen yuan on a registration fee.

Just like that, she got on the bus with Chen Yuan.

And sat in the seat next to him.

Of course, ghosts don't have the concept of sitting. Her soul was always floating. Theoretically, she was moving laterally, which had nothing to do with the moving bus.

This sounded very cool, like she was strong, capable of 'flying'.

But she couldn't feel the wind, nor did she have the sensation of weightlessness. All the fun was nonexistent.

Only when eating could she feel a tiny bit of fulfillment.

Of course, if being a ghost was so fun, who would want to reincarnate?

Just like that, she followed Chen Yuan to his home.

An apartment that was obviously rented for a very low price.

That fifteen hundred could probably rent this place for two months.

So, the reason he added that woman's friend was probably because he thought she was rich...

Just like how Ruan Lang would come to find me from time to time even when I was a widow, because my family was quite wealthy...

How old are you? You're still a boy, don't become so depraved!

Although the female ghost hated his tendency to be flirtatious, she still hoped that he could turn back from his misguided path and not go deeper and deeper.

Treat the girl you love well, okay?

An Ru Xue was very anxious, but Chen Yuan was very relaxed. After putting down his schoolbag, he took the packed dishes and went to the door across the hall.

He knocked on the door, and then a very beautiful, Jiangnan-esque, gentle, long-haired girl in a school uniform opened the door, revealing a smile.

Look, your girlfriend is so beautiful, don't bully her...

"Hey, guess what I brought?" Chen Yuan asked, holding up the takeout container.

"Delicious food!" Xia Xin Yu didn't expect Chen Yuan to bring her anything, revealing a particularly happy smile.

"I ate out with a friend today, and the salt and pepper shrimp at that restaurant was pretty good, so I packed a portion for you. It has chili in it."

Chen Yuan put the salt and pepper shrimp on the desk, opened the lid, and a delicious meal was presented.

Although Xia Xin Yu was already full from eating at her aunt's house, it was after all Chen Yuan's kind gesture, so she didn't refuse. She actively picked up chopsticks, grabbed a shrimp, used her mouth to peel the shell, creating a complete shrimp tail meat, and then handed it to Chen Yuan, jokingly saying, "Don't you mind my saliva?"

"Why don't you suck on it twice before feeding it to me?"

"Ah?" Xia Xin Yu blushed, protesting in a low voice, "Don't be so perverted..."

"I mean, it's a little spicy, I might not be able to eat it. Help me suck off the chili. Wait, what did you think I meant?"

Did you think I wanted to eat your saliva?

Laughing to death.

Well, I didn't really want to eat it that much!

"I'll eat it myself, hmph."

Xia Xin Yu didn't argue with Chen Yuan. She put it in her own mouth, chewed it, and nodded with considerable approval, "Mmm, it's really delicious."

"Right? That restaurant's specialty is shrimp. We'll go eat together next time."

"No need." Xia Xin Yu raised a finger, her expression gradually becoming serious, and then studied a salt and pepper shrimp. After tasting the crispy shrimp head, she suddenly said, "I know how to make it. I'll make it for you on Saturday."

"Ah?"

Chen Yuan was really stunned. Did this Yu Zi have some kind of divine tongue?

Brothers, I'm too happy.

I hope you all meet your own Yu Zi soon.

If you can't meet a Yu Zi, meet a Jiao Jie.

What, want to meet 47?

Tang Jian, switch to your main account!

"It's really delicious, accompany me."

Xia Xin Yu patted the stool next to her, asking Chen Yuan to sit with her and enjoy this delicious food.

"No, I just ate, I can't eat anymore. And this is specially reserved for you, otherwise I wouldn't have put so much chili in it," Chen Yuan explained with a smile.

"Wuwu." Xia Xin Yu looked at Chen Yuan, feeling especially grateful and moved at the same time. "Why are you so good to me?"

Going out to eat and bringing food back for his girlfriend, this was really too touching.

Moreover, this wasn't Xia Xin Yu's initiative; it was Chen Yuan who thought of it himself and did it.

Had he really never been in a relationship before?

To be so good at it on his first try.

Truly worthy of you.

To this, Chen Yuan just smiled faintly and said, "Shouldn't I be good to you?"

If that's the case, then why did you add that woman's WeChat!

If you're good to her, then just be good to her alone!

Although their interactions were sweet, giving people a sense of warmth and beauty, An Ru Xue couldn't forget that when no one was around, Chen Yuan secretly added a great beauty's WeChat.

In the past, when concubines were allowed, this might not have been anything.

But now, the purity of love cannot be sullied.

A person can only love one person.

"That..."

After eating a few shrimp, Xia Xin Yu looked at Chen Yuan with a smile, suddenly shyly saying, "Want to eat a kiss?"

At this moment, Xin Yu's lips were a little red.

From eating spicy shrimp.

And such a request, how could he refuse?

Without thinking, Chen Yuan directly kissed her slightly flushed, soft lips, also taking a small bite.

The taste of love was so delicious.

But this spicy mouth... it definitely exceeded mild!

"Haha, you really can't handle any spice at all," Xia Xin Yu said mockingly while pouring Chen Yuan cold water.

"To us people from Hai Dong, your mouthwash right now is considered spicy."

Chen Yuan picked up the cup, gulped, and drank the water down.

Then, he prepared to leave, "I have a physics paper to do, so I'll go write it first. If there's anything I don't understand, I'll chat with you on WeChat."

"Okay, sure." Xia Xin Yu stood up, looked at Chen Yuan, and before he left, reminded him, "Don't forget the important step."

Chen Yuan understood.

Then, he opened his arms.

And Xia Xin Yu obediently hugged him, touching his back with her hands. When they hugged, she also reminded him, "The shrimp was delicious, but next time, don't order spicy things. Everything is only delicious when I eat it with you."

"Okay, I got it, baby."

Chen Yuan also gently patted her back, responding with a smile.

The two of them just hugged quietly like this.

This scene was so beautiful, making people envious.

An Ru Xue watched in a daze...

And the more they were like this, the more she cared about the WeChat that Chen Yuan had secretly added before.

She couldn't change reality, nor could she scare Chen Yuan in his dreams.

As a woman, a very tragic woman, she didn't want this girl to get hurt.

She even prayed that he could be unfaithful, but couldn't he just not let her know...

In this life, don't let her know.

Before she died, An Ru Xue had even thought, if she hadn't known what Ruan Lang had done to her family, completely ignorant of his evil, and then agreed to be his concubine after he passed the imperial exam, as he had said to her, would she have been able to gain some happiness?

She didn't want to watch anymore.

But at midnight, her soul would fly back to that tree.

At that moment, her power would have a strong boost, becoming closer to a physical form.

So, she decided to continue following behind Chen Yuan, giving him a little bit of a female ghost shock.

Let him know that his actions were not unknown!

Just like that, An Ru Xue followed into the room.

At this time, Chen Yuan was sitting at his desk, writing his exam paper.

Suddenly a WeChat message came over.

After the female ghost leaned over, she discovered that it was a message from that woman:

Little brother, thank you for helping me find my bag. Are you free to have dinner together tomorrow night?

As expected, this would happen!

This kid wouldn't agree, and then after eating, pack some food for his girlfriend, deceiving both sides, right?

An Ru Xue watched anxiously, eager to know his answer.

And Chen Yuan, after glancing at the message, sighed, "I thought it was a transfer, turns out it's a one-night stand. Damn it."

?

The female ghost was stunned when she heard this, completely unable to react.

Then, Chen Yuan put down his phone.

Next, he simply deleted the WeChat contact directly, continuing to write his physics, muttering, "I was still planning to buy some new winter clothes for Xin Yu. Forget it, I'll just use my savings..."

Misunderstanding cleared.

Their pure love made An Ru Xue almost reveal a doting smile.

So that's how it was.

This man was indeed very good.

I'm relieved now.

You're different from Ruan Lang. You're a hundred times better than him, you...

Smiling and smiling, An Ru Xue's expression gradually solidified.

Such happiness...

Why have I never experienced it?

Standing behind Chen Yuan, she lowered her head, looking at her hands.

Then she raised her head, hugging the air with her hands, closing her eyes, and imagining leaning her forehead against someone's embrace...
