After Nie Zhen'er woke up, she found the sky was completely dark.

    She was startled as she didn't remember how she reached the bedroom and quickly sat up from the bed.

    Nie Zhen'er turned on the light in the bedroom with her optical brain. When she exited the bed to wash up and changed out of the wrinkled clothes on her body, her confused brain finally woke up.

    "! ! !" She didn't know if Luan Qing Xiao was still here, how could she leave her alone to fall asleep?

    Qing Xiao definitely was gone... … Nie Zhen'er thought, depressed.

    No, she has to quickly find Luan Qing Xiao and apologize!

    Nie Zhen'er swiftly ran out with her jacket. When she ran to the living room, she noticed that the light in the living room was on.

    Her steps gradually stopped as she smelled the delicious scent of food.

    Luan Qing Xiao walked out of the kitchen with the last dish and put the dish on the table before turning around to smile at Nie Zhen'er, who was staring at her blankly. "I was just about to tell you to come out for a meal, but you woke up yourself first."

    At first Nie Zhen'er felt disbelief and then her eyes became hot.

    From her expression, Luan Qing Xiao knew Nie Zhen'er was moved by her and wanted to cry. However, Nie Zhen'er had already cried plenty previously, so now her eyes were still a little swollen. She definitely couldn't shed tears anymore.

    Luan Qing Xiao walked over to take her hand, "You should laugh when you encounter happy things." She had Nie Zhen'er sit at the table and pointed to the table full of food to Nie Zhen'er, "I dare to bet every single dish is super delicious. But if you cry, the dish will become unpalatable. If you don’t want to disappoint me, just smile and have dinner, okay?"

    Nie Zhen'er involuntarily retracted her tears, nodding obediently, "Okay."

    "Good girl." Luan Qing Xiao smiled and sat next to Nie Zhen'er.

    Nie Zhen'er hadn't heard this kind of "praise" since she was in elementary school. Her face flushed, "I thought you were already gone."

    Luan Qing Xiao surprisingly rubbed Nie Zhen'er's head, "I said, I would let you taste my cooking skills. How can I go?"

    Nie Zhen'er looked at Luan Qing Xiao, touched. "Qing Xiao, it's so nice to have known you."

    Luan Qing Xiao laughed, "The way we’re talking is becoming more and more sappy. Come, try the fish." Luan Qing Xiao picked Nie Zhen'er a boneless piece of fish and placed it on top of the white rice in front of her.

    Nie Zhen'er used the chopsticks to pick up the white fish and put it in her mouth.

    She chewed twice and glanced at Luan Qing Xiao with bright eyes, "It's delicious!"

    Luan Qing Xiao supported her chin and said dotingly, "Whatever you like, I can cook it for you in the future."

    Nie Zhen'er's heart beat fiercely as her face flushed, "Qing Xiao, why are you so nice to me?"

    Obviously the two people have known each other not long ago.

    Except for her parents, only Luan Qing Xiao has treated her this kindly. Nie Zhen'er was sure that the two had never met before nor any intersections, so she didn’t understand why Luan Qing Xiao "doted" on her.

    Luan Qing Xiao pickled some vegetables for Nie Zhen'er, "I treat you well because you are worthy of me being good to you."

    She raised her beautiful eyes to look at Nie Zhen'er, "For example, today, you went to the Academic Affairs Office to help me ask about the transfer. After the Academic Affairs Director revealed that you might not be promoted, you didn’t worry about your business. Instead, you stayed patiently and continued to help me ask. Tell me, do you think there could be a kinder cutie in the world than you?"

    Nie Zhen'er was both surprised and shy by what Luan Qing Xiao said, "I, am I really as good as you said?" At that time, she thought Luan Qing Xiao’s transfer was more important, so she did that. She didn’t think Luan Qing Xiao would give her such a high evaluation because of this trivial matter.

    "Don't belittle yourself, in my heart, you are the best." Luan Qing Xiao confirmed affirmatively.

    Today Nie Zhen'er's mood was like riding a roller coaster. There have been ups and downs. How sad she was this morning was how happy she was now.

    There was nothing more pleasant than having a person in the world who likes herself that much.

    The next day, the two of them ran together in the morning as usual and then went home to wash and clean up. After changing clothes and eating breakfast, Luan Qing Xiao gave Yu Mu Yun a gaze. To which Yu Mu Yun responded by pulling Qiao Cen to the supermarket to buy groceries.

    Luan Qing Xiao weakly leaned against the door frame and stood at the door watching them leave, "There’s no vegetables I like at home and I still have to trouble you to go to the supermarket to buy them for me. I‘m sorry about the trouble. I’ll just be staying at home and won’t go anywhere, don’t worry about me."

    "It's no trouble, rest assured and leave it to me… … us, I mean."

    Finishing his words, Qiao Cen patted his chest. While he was pulled away by Yu Mu Yun, every three steps he would turn his head back.

    Luan Qing Xiao waited at home for a while. After receiving Yu Mu Yun's message that he was "aboard the spacecraft,” she left home and went to Nie Zhen'er's house to meet her.

    The two had agreed on a time. Therefore, when Luan Qing Xiao arrived in front of Nie Zhen'er's house, the door opened.

    "Qing Xiao, were you waiting for a long time? I'm sorry, I wasted some time washing the dishes." Nie Zhen'er said.

    Luan Qing Xiao smiled while rubbing her head, "As soon as I walked over, you opened the door. You should be happy with our tacit understanding. Even if I waited for you, you don't need to apologize to me. Understand, Zhen’er?"

    Nie Zhen'er's scalp went numb as the small spot touched by Luan Qing Xiao was faintly hot and her ears quickly became bloodshot red.

    She closed the door after walking out the door. Nervously squeezing the strap of the backpack with her fingers, Zhen’er said. "I understand, I won't anymore."
