Chapter 47: 047 Drive away buddies_1 Chapter 47: 047 Drive away buddies_1 For a full two hours after Xiao Chengjun entered the room, he didn’t utter a word.

Whether he spoke or not wasn’t the issue; Lin Haoran was losing his mind with the silence. It was driving him insane.

“I need to talk to you!”

Lin Haoran grabbed Xiao Chengjun’s IPAD. “Give my IPAD back. Whatever you want to say, just say it!” Xiao Chengjun took his tablet back sharply.

Empty-handed, Lin Haoran couldn’t help but admire his strength. “Why don’t you talk to me? For basic communication, isn’t that common courtesy? What do you think?”

“I don’t think so!” Xiao Chengjun replied with dismissive coldness.

Infuriated, Lin Haoran stomped his foot. “So you’re just going to ignore me forever?”

Xiao Chengjun continued focusing on his screen, which was essentially a clear response.

“If you’re so uncommunicative, why share a room with me? Why don’t you just stay by yourself?” Lin Haoran asked hastily.

“…”

“Are you pulling this superior act, thinking you’re so great?”

“…”

“If you don’t start talking, I want a different room!”

“…”

“Since you’re not talking to me, you should be the one to move!” Lin Haoran repeated.

“If you want to leave, you can, but I won’t be going anywhere!”

“I’m going to bed!” In a fit of frustration, Lin Haoran turned off the room lights.

And he turned them off completely. The entire room plunged into darkness!

Xiao Chengjun, not ready for bedtime, turned the lights back on.

With a ‘pop’ sound, Lin Haoran turned the light off again.

Six-year-old Xiao Chengjun may not be as immature as Lin Haoran, but he’s still just a kid and prone to being stubborn.

Keeping the lights on was his only goal at the moment!

Lin Haoran could barely contain his frustration at the glaring light.

This guy, not only did he steal his girlfriend, now he’s picking on him.

If he didn’t assert himself a little, he’d appear as docile as Hello Kitty.

Lin Haoran’s eyes moved restlessly, an idea suddenly formed in his mind.

“Ah…” Lin Haoran shrieked, leaping out of his bed.

“What are you doing?” Xiao Chengjun jumped in surprise.

“Mouse…mouse…” Lin Haoran shouted, hopping onto Xiao Chengjun’s bed.

“Get off, I’m not used to sharing a bed!” Xiao Chengjun tried shoving him off in defense of his territory.

Lin Haoran, acting more like a little girl now, threw himself at Xiao. “Brother Xiao, I’m so scared. I’m afraid of mice, please help me…”

Crying as though he had suffered a major loss, the kind-hearted Xiao Chengjun softened a bit. “You’re overthinking it. This is a five-star hotel and we’re staying on an upper floor. There’s no way there are mice here!”

Lin Haoran replied with a ‘you don’t understand’ expression. “Brother Xiao, there’s a lot you don’t know. Did you know? Mice are the second most intelligent creatures on the planet. They’re great at imitating things, they’re highly adaptable, and resilient. They’re constantly watching people, so who’s to say they don’t ride elevators…it would be quick for them to climb several floors. And then sneak into our room…just thinking about it horrifies me…”

Shivering, Lin Haoran finished his tall tale. The more he spoke, the more terrified he felt.

Xiao Chengjun also felt a bit jittery. Mice are revolting creatures!

“So… we should sleep on the same bed. That way we won’t be so scared…right?” Lin Haoran asked timidly.

“Only if you don’t move around!” Xiao Chengjun warned.

“Okay!”

Lin Haoran, true to his word, lay quietly next to Xiao Chengjun.

Not long after, Xiao Chengjun fell asleep!

Lin Haoran got closer to him, and closer… until he suddenly rolled over on top of him, starting to pepper Xiao Chengjun’s cheek with kisses.

“Hey, what are you doing?” Xiao Chengjun abruptly opened his eyes, staring with terror at the person on top of him.

“It’s the thing people do when they’re in love, brother Xiao. I like you!” With his eyes wide open, Lin Haoran replied with child’s innocence and romance.

Xiao Chengjun had never experienced anything like it and terrified, he quickly shoved Lin Haoran aside, grabbed his clothes, and ran out to find the teacher. “I want to change rooms. Lin Haoran is a pervert!!!”

Sitting inside the room, a very smug Lin Haoran began to laugh…

Let’s see if the teacher doesn’t do something now!

Just as he was about to fall asleep, his mother called. Lin Haoran picked up the phone obediently. “Mom…”

“I saw your call after I finished work. Is it bedtime yet? Did I disturb you?” His mother, Lin Xiangwan, masked her sorrow and asked casually.

Even though he was faking it, Lin Haoran played along. “Not yet. You didn’t disturb me!”

“That’s good!” Upon hearing her son’s voice, Lin Xiangwan’s sorrow deepened. Her son was so far away from her now.

“Mom…I have something to tell you,” Lin Haoran started delicately.

“Hmm? What is it?”

“Mom, well…” Lin Haoran pondered how he should phrase it. “They all said I only got into this project because of nepotism. None of the other kids want to play with me. I’m alone in my room, and I’m frightened…”

“What, how can that be?” Lin Xiangwan was so worried she wanted to cry. She felt even worse to be so far away from her son and unable to comfort him.

Lin Haoran squeezed his eyes shut and mentally scolded himself for coming up with such a poor excuse. “Mom, don’t worry, it’s not like no kids want to be friendly with me at all. Some kids do want to play with me. But, they are girls and the teacher won’t let me share a room with them!”

“I see…”

“We’re all kids. I don’t see why it needs to be so strictly delimited. Plus, the girl doesn’t mind sharing a room with me. Mom, why don’t you call the teacher and tell them I’m a girl?”

“Huh?”

“Mom…” Lin Haoran changed his approach, then began to explain the pros and cons of the situation to his mother.

From being initially adamant, Lin Xiangwan began to wrestle with the idea, and, finally, she was persuaded.

……

Just when she was about to go to sleep, Qin Yutong was startled by a knock on the door. Upon opening it, she found Lin Haoran with his luggage.

“What are you doing here?” At this point, Qin Yutong applied a natural lemon juice face mask.

She wasn’t involved in any vanity at her young age, but she was suffering from some pollen allergies, causing her skin to itch.

At home, her grandmother Butler would always apply this remedy whenever faced with such a situation!

The “cool” Lin Haoran put on his oversized sunglasses again. He leaned against the doorframe and tossed his hair back. “I have no choice. The teacher insists that I share a room with you!”

“Why?”

“Because Xiao Chengjun doesn’t want to share a room with me, I have no choice but to share one with you!”

“I don’t believe it, I’m going to ask the teacher!”

“You can ask if you don’t believe me. This is the teacher’s idea!”
