The Building Wasn't Empty After All

Because she had recognized the person as soon as she heard the voice, Ling Mengxue was stunned for a moment when she saw Lan Yuxin's red eyes, and then felt a wave of annoyance.

Why is this silly girl so emotional? It's just a school transfer! If you told her directly that someone died, wouldn't she cry her eyes out?

"Do you want to ask about Brother Ling Feng?"

"I..."

"Actually, I don't know the specifics either, but I still want to make it very clear to you that this matter has nothing to do with you, so don't overthink it."

Just like with any normal plot explanation, Ling Mengxue didn't really want to make things difficult for her; she just wanted things to proceed as they were.

Of course, whether Lan Yuxin listens or not is not her concern.

She still had things to take care of. Should she visit the dormitory, check in, or head straight home?

Anyway, it's still early, and there's plenty of time to do. Besides, Xi Yan should be starting school by now.

"Can I... come to your house?" After thinking for a long time, Lan Yuxin finally mustered up her courage and asked.

Upon hearing this, Ling Mengxue simply smiled warmly and said, "Sure, I thought Lan was looking for me to fight."

Hearing Ling Mengxue's joking reply, Lan Yuxin looked up at her, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Although she didn't know if Ling Mengxue's words had any other meaning, she didn't want to doubt them too much, because she simply didn't have the time or inclination for it.

She had previously heard Tang Xiaohua say that Ling Mengxue and Ling Feng actually lived together, so if Ling Feng had just transferred to a nearby high school, she would still have a chance to meet him.

Seeing Lan Yuxin deep in thought, how could Ling Mengxue not see through her little scheme? It wasn't that she was particularly clever, but rather that what the girl was thinking was completely written on her face.

It's good that she's given up on this idea sooner, and can get over this mental hurdle so she can start a better life.

"Wow! It's Goddess Yuxin! She's my dream girl!"

"Dragon Soaring High School's most beautiful girl is not someone you can just pluck. Hmm? Who's that next to Yuxin? So beautiful... I can't take it anymore, I'm anemic, someone help me up?"

"Damn it, why do I feel like I'm committing blasphemy when I look at that white-haired girl? Am I a white-haired fetishist?"

"Isn't that right? Most China people are fans of white-haired people!"

"Puff!"

"Ah! Someone's collapsed here!"

When two school goddesses Ling Mengxue and Lan Yuxin, walk together, the impact is truly immense!

She was a little shorter than Lan Yuxin, and the two really looked like sisters, but one had white hair and the other had black hair, so there was still a noticeable difference between them.

In less than a minute, the situation became increasingly unfavorable, and the number of students watching gradually increased, until there were no fewer than several dozen people gathered around.

Holy crap, are all these people here to see pretty girls? Even if I am... ptooey! Even if I am pretty, you don't have to be lying on the ground like that, do you? It's so dirty.

No, I misspoke again, but anyway, at this distance, it shouldn't be visible.

Once Ling Mengxue's patience ran out, she stopped thinking about it and ran out of the school gate with Lan Yuxin in her hand.

This makes things much easier. I can't say that these people will chase after me again, but that's a bit too much, especially since I didn't use Charm Technique skills! Who knew it would automatically activate!

They were pulled along the street, and when they finally arrived at a certain place, their pace gradually slowed down. Lan Yuxin didn't seem to notice anything, but Ling Mengxue seemed to be walking in a hurry.

Her skirt swayed a bit too much, causing her to expose herself slightly, which made Lan Yuxin blush.

There was no way around it; Ling Mengxue was just too beautiful. Even though she herself was a beauty with a 9.8-point rating, she couldn't resist the temptation.

This is practically a reincarnation of Su Daji!

Although she really wanted to remind her, Lan Yuxin hesitated for a few seconds as if possessed, thinking that she would lose sight of it if she spoke up!

"Meng... Mengxue, you're exposing yourself a bit, you should be more careful," Lan Yuxin said, blushing, while turning her head away.

"Ah?"

Seeing Lan Yuxin's strange expression, Ling Mengxue didn't react for a moment, but when she thought about what had just happened, her pink face immediately turned red with embarrassment.

Releasing her grip on Lan Yuxin's hand, she tightly covered her bottom, her delicate and beautiful face turning as red as a peach, making her look incredibly endearing.

"You... you saw it?"

Lan Yuxin: "..."

Seeing Lan Yuxin's puzzled expression, Ling Mengxue felt incredibly embarrassed. She wondered if she had been too hasty and hadn't even noticed this detail!

Could it be that she really exposed herself?!

"Pfft! You, don't get excited. We were quite far away from that group of people, so we weren't likely to be spotted. Besides, I was walking behind you, so no one would have seen me."

It was the first time Lan Yuxin had ever seen Ling Mengxue look so embarrassed, and she couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed. How come she had never noticed how adorable Ling Mengxue was before?

If this were her younger sister, she'd probably be laughing in her sleep, but I wonder if she'd accidentally break it.

"So, what are we doing at the supermarket? Is there anything you want to buy?"

Noticing the surroundings of the two, Lan Yuxin quickly changed the subject.

"Hmm? This? I'm just buying some ingredients for tonight's cooking." "Hmm... If you want to buy anything, come in and browse. Don't just stand here like an idiot without me saying anything."

As if she had thought of something, Ling Mengxue added another reminder.

"You can cook? I never knew..." Lan Yuxin couldn't help but chuckle. "Seeing how good you are, I thought you were either fighting or on your way to fight every day..."

Ling Mengxue ignored Lan Yuxin's words, rolled her eyes at her, and walked into the supermarket on her own.

This girl is still the same as before, with such a sharp tongue. Can't she change this bad habit?

That's not what humor is supposed to be! Hey!

After buying the groceries she wanted at the supermarket, Lan Yuxin was already waiting at the counter.

This surprised Ling Mengxue. Aren't girls supposed to take a long time to shop? Why was she so quick? Ling Mengxue thought to herself.

Of course, she didn't think it was a bad thing; on the contrary, she thought it was one of Lan Yuxin's great strengths.

Chapter 43 The building remains even after the people have left.

"Huh? Why did you buy so many cucumbers? So you really love cucumbers? If you don't mind, I can make you some when we get back."

Ling Mengxue figured Lan Yuxin had gone to her house to find Ling Feng, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. If it was late, they could have lunch together.

"Sure, do you want some? I'll give you some." As she spoke, Lan Yuxin had already placed her hand inside the plastic bag, ready to take some.

Wow.

This girl is way too direct...

"No... no need,"

Completely oblivious to the fact that her mind had gone blank, Ling Mengxue gave a bewildered "reminder," leaving Lan Yuxin utterly puzzled.

Buying cucumbers... is that so strange?

"Is cucumber all we have?!"

"And there are also feminine wash, sanitary napkins, toilet paper, anti-inflammatory lotion, and so on..."

Lan Yuxin, without blushing or skipping a beat, rummaged through the items in the plastic bag and said, "I bought a lot of things, and I've even forgotten about them, but I'll definitely need them."

She didn't feel offended at all by Ling Mengxue's impolite question, as if she were talking about something very ordinary, and there was nothing she couldn't say.

Of course, it also contained the intention of gaining Ling Mengxue's trust.

"Feel sorry."

"It's nothing. Some of these are things my mom needs, so I bought them on the way. The anti-inflammatory medicine is for my dad, who recently bumped into something again." Lan Yuxin shook her head and patiently explained.

She was in low spirits, and all she could think about now was Ling Feng.

Since their parting in Chongming City, the two had not seen each other again, and now, she only wanted to see him one more time.

She'd do anything you asked, just once, she wouldn't dare ask for more.

She owed Ling Feng a lot, perhaps just some small things from their daily lives, but she wouldn't allow herself to pretend it never happened; her heart couldn't lie.

She couldn't ignore these feelings.

"By the way, aren't you the vice class monitor? Are there any requirements for applying for accommodation? You should know the answer, right?"

"Yes, if you want to stay in the dorms, you can just apply. However, although Dragon Soaring High School is a public school, the dorm fees are not cheap. It costs nearly 10,000 yuan per day per month, including expenses."

"Is that so? Let me think about it some more..."

Ling Mengxue thought about it for a while. She had money now, so it wasn't a problem with the cost. The main thing was that she felt inexplicably panicked when she thought about the problems she might face if she moved into the girls' dormitory.

Moreover, if someone were to actually move in, wouldn't that be far too evil?

"By the way... Mengxue, where did you study before?" Lan Yuxin asked casually, suddenly remembering this question.

Hearing this, Ling Mengxue felt a little confused. She was originally a student at Dragon Soaring High School, but she couldn't very well say that she had transferred from Dragon Soaring High School, could she?

What are you doing here?

Left with no other option, she used the excuse of "studying at home" to fool them.

She was originally a person of few words, and she would rather not speak than act than speak. The main problem was that her own voice made her feel a little excited.

Gentle, ethereal, sweet, melodious...

I don't want to think about it anymore. It's a sound otherworldly, so beautiful it's indescribable...

The two walked back together, which took about twenty minutes, until they reached their destination.

However, when Ling Mengxue saw several people sitting and standing in front of her house, she suddenly felt a little confused. Were they looking for someone?

Wait, isn't that Zhao Ping and Yuwen? And... Qiu Yun'er?

"Are they all here to see Ling Feng?"

As they approached, Lan Yuxin pointed to the three people standing at the door and asked.

Ling Mengxue was already in a state of panic and was almost speechless.

Is it really necessary? Did the news of my transfer reach their ears so quickly?

"You guys."

Hearing a soft, melodious voice behind them, Zhao Ping, Yuwen, and Qiu Yun'er were all startled at the same time.

They had been discussing the reasons for Ling Feng's sudden transfer, but now they had to stop.

"Ling Meng? No, it's Meng Xue!"

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Qiu Yun'er couldn't help but rush over and grab Ling Mengxue's fair and delicate hand. Regardless of how it felt, it was undeniably wonderful.

She wanted to ask about Ling Feng first, so she explained the purpose of their visit.

Since they had the same goal and it was a coincidence that they met, they decided to wait together there. Besides, it was lunchtime, so if they happened to bump into each other, they could even get a free meal, right?

It kills two birds with one stone, so why not?

"A fairy?!"

The moment Zhao Ping turned around and saw Ling Mengxue, he suddenly shouted excitedly, leaving everyone else stunned.

"Don't speak."

Ling Mengxue turned her face away. She couldn't help but get angry whenever she saw Zhao Ping. She treated him like a brother, and yet he wanted to pursue her?

This brother is better off without!

But regardless, Zhao Ping and Yuwen came to her out of concern, so Ling Mengxue wasn't really angry.

After calming down, she breathed a long sigh of relief and went to open the door.

"Brother Ling Feng has already transferred schools. He didn't want you to be sad, so he let it go."

At this point, Ling Mengxue paused, as if considering something, and turned back to say, "Besides... Brother Ling Feng won't be living here anymore, and I'll be all alone in this house now."

"..."

Upon hearing this answer, everyone fell silent. Although no one spoke, the answer was undoubtedly infuriating.

Ling Mengxue seemed to have anticipated this outcome, so she didn't mind and told them to go sit in the living room first after entering the house.

"By the way, Yuxin likes cucumbers so much, shall I make you a cucumber salad?"

Upon hearing the voice, Lan Yuxin merely nodded dejectedly, because even now, she didn't know what she was thinking...
