The three of them pleaded.
âMaybeâ¦â
Just as Chubby Jiang and the others were about to cheer, the class bell rang.
Big Mouth, who sat behind Li Zexin, poked him with a pencil. âYou canât go back on your words. Iâm going to make an agreement. You have to sign it.â
âQin Yang, take your book and stand at the back of the classroom,â the subject teacher said angrily. âHow many times do I have to remind you? How can you be so disobedient?â
Big Mouth lowered his head and carried his book to the back of the classroom.
Chubby Jiang, who had wanted to pass a note to Li Zexin, quietly placed the note inside his book.
Finally, the bell rang.
Big Mouth patted his sore legs and returned to his seat and packed his bag.
âQin Yang, you need to be disciplined, especially during self-study. If you donât want to study, at least donât disturb others who do,â said the teacher.
âYes, teacher. I know I was wrong, and I wonât do it again. I am very sorry.â Big Mouth sincerely admitted his mistake.
âGood. See you tomorrow.â
As the teacher left, the students talked among themselves.
âYou dare to pull that in front of the Physics teacher?â said Preserved Egg.
âI was just too excited. Xinxin, about what we were discussing, you agree to our arrangement, right? One of us accompanies you to your house at a time.â âCan we go back to the dormitory first? The classroom will be fumigated.â âSure.â
âWait, I need to buy a pack of instant noodles. Iâm hungry, and Iâve finished all the food I brought from home,â Chubby Jiang said.
âI have some. Letâs go back to the dormitory.â Li Zexin had brought them some packed food from home but hadnât told his roommates yet.
The four of them walked back to the dormitory. They turned the lights on in their room. They noticed the meal boxes on the desk.
âWhatâs this?â
âMrs. Lin asked me to bring it for you. You donât need to take turns. Starting tomorrow, weâll all go together to my house. Agreed? Weâll eat whatever she prepares, and youâre not allowed to be picky. And donât bother Grandma Huang to cook separately for you.â Li Zexin set the rules.
Chubby Jiang opened the meal box. âHappiness comes so suddenlyâ¦â
Preserved Egg pretended to wipe tears from his eyes. âThe night snack brings tears to my eyes.â
âWhatâs happier than returning to the dormitory and having a hot meal at night? It is no wonder you came to school late today.â
Li Zexin was no longer hungry, but seeing his roommates enjoy their meal, he picked up the chopsticks and started eating as well.
The next day, Yun City was once again covered in light snow.
Lin Wan got up early in the morning. She was going to accompany Li Yanchen to his office today.
When she opened the curtains, she saw the snow falling lightly. The trees outside were already covered in white, and Lin Wan thought that the author of the original novel must be someone who loved snow. Otherwise, how could Yun City look so enchanting? If she remembered correctly, this was already the fourth snowfall this winter.
Li Yanchen handed Lin Wan the toothpaste. âWanwan, brush your teeth.â
Lin Wanâs legs emerged from under the blanket as she stepped into her furry slippers. Before going into the bathroom, she kissed Li Yanchen on the cheek.
It seemed that as long as Li Yanchen was at home, he would take care of everything. The bathroom was always clean and fragrant. Today, it smelled of jasmine.
The toilet seat was already heated.
Lin Wan was in a good moon. She couldnât help but sing.
At the headquarters of Chenxin, Assistant Qin arrived at the company and immediately went to the cafeteria to arrange for the food Li Yanchen had instructed.
After returning to the office building, Assistant Qin couldnât help but boast that the boss was coming to the company with his wife today.
The way he saw it, the real boss was Lin Wan, since Li Yanchen listened to everything she said.
The few newly hired twenty-something employees in the company heard that the bossâ wife was coming and started tidying themselves up. They wanted to look presentable.
They were hoping to catch her attention.
An experienced old employee looked at those men. âYoung man, you didnât care this much even when you were meeting your girlfriend.â
âWhat? How do you know that? I rushed out of my house this morning. I didnât even have time to tidy up. Women always say wearing make-up is a sign of respect for others. Whatâs wrong if I want to be presentable?â
âLittle Zhang is right. We are the companyâs employees. If we look sloppy when we are this young, the entire companyâs morale will go down.â
âSo, the reason you borrowed Sister Leâs comb earlier was for the companyâs image?â
âI also have a foundation. Do you want me to cover that big pimple on your nose?â
âI do!â
A few of them huddled together.
Lin Wan wore a mink fur coat. It was synthetic fur. She would never wear real fur since she is environmentally conscious.
But even though it was faux fur, it was still branded.
She chose a beige short fur coat paired with black jeans, plus knee-high boots, and finally, she wore a beige beret.
Li Yanchen couldnât find the words to describe her. He could only smile in admiration.
It was snowing, so he drove slowly. Lin Wan had the chance to appreciate the scenery that she usually didnât notice. On the way to the company, they even passed by an amusement park. Through the car window, she could vaguely see the European-style buildings and blue rooftops of the amusement park.
âI didnât notice this amusement park before,â she said.
âSnow Queen theme park. Itâs been there for many years. I pass by it every day but have never been inside. I thought you knew about it.â Li Yanchen glanced at ner.
âSnow Queen? With todayâs weather, it fits right in. If we head back early, can we go in?â
âYou like the Snow Queen?â
âYes! I like all female protagonists in fairy tales.â
Lin Wan did a quick search and found that the amusement park wasnât very large, but it had high ratings and many beautiful photos. It seemed to be a perfect place for taking pictures.
She made a note of it on her phone.
At nine in the morning, they arrived at Chenxin.
Everyone had already started their busy day.
Lin Wan entered through the main door and greeted everyone as she made her way to Li Yanchenâs office.
When the door to Li Yanchenâs office finally closed, the employees talked among themselves.
âWhy didnât Madam become a celebrity? She would take them out of their jobs.â
âItâs such a pity that she didnât. Sheâs so beautiful and elegant.â
âLittle Zhang, wipe your drool. Please donât short-circuit your laptop.â
âHa ha, Sister Hong, youâre so sarcastic.â
âWhy arenât the male colleagues saying anything?â
âThey must have been struck by the beauty of Madam and are in a trance. They havenât regained their senses yet.â
Suddenly, Zhang stood up and picked up a file. He wanted to go to Li Yanchenâs office to look at Lin Wan once again. Otherwise, he wouldnât ever be at peace.
There was a knock at Li Yanchenâs office door..
