Chapter 489: This Week, I’ll Still Come Over to Your Place
"Zhang Yunqian spoke with some urgency, 'It's Saturday today, and the students are getting up earlier than usual. They're already waking up!' Once reminded, Lu Yun remembered—it was indeed Saturday, and she still had to go to Uncle Big-Hair's place to pick up medicine. She no longer cared about when she slept; Liu Tingting's father's condition couldn't be delayed. She quickly rose, washed up at the sink, and only then felt a bit clearer in her mind. 'Here, hurry and wipe yourself off,' Zhang Yunqian gently offered a towel. While wiping her face, Lu Yun said, 'Qian姐, I'm not sure if the principal of the education commission will be at school today. You should go pick up the materials early.'
Zhang Yunqian nodded, her tone carrying a touch of gratitude. "I know—you did so many times last night, and here, I really don't have much to offer to help you recover."
Lu Yun opened the office door, glanced out briefly, and as he was about to leave, turned back to smile at Zhang Yunqian: "Qian姐, don't forget the female teacher you mentioned— I'm really looking forward to seeing who ends up sharing your bed with you, squeezed in between you and me."
"Still not moving!" Zhang Yunqian scolded, tossing her towel directly at Lu Yun.
Lu Yun reached out, caught it mid-air, and returned it with a mischievous smile, then stepped out of the office and hurried toward the dormitory.
Zhang Yunqian was right—this weekend, several of the dorm mates had already woken up early, packing up their things to head home.
Lai hurried over as Lu Yun entered the dorm, grinning: "Yunge, where did you go last night? You didn't come back until this morning, did you?"
"I went bird-watching," Lu Yun chuckled, beginning to pack some laundry clothes to take back.
Bird-watching?
Lei Zi was completely at a loss, confused by Lu Yun's words. On weekends, he hadn't seen Xiao Jing for days, and now he was eager to see her. Seeing Lu Yun packing her clothes without asking any questions, Lei Zi simply turned and left the dormitory.
Thinking of Jinzhi's gaze fixed on him and her plainly suggestive words, Lu Yun's head immediately grew heavy. Jinzhi, once a delicious dish in Lu Yun's mouth, had now become not only Xiao Ying's mother but also his future mother-in-law—this situation was simply complicated. If handled poorly, the outcome would surely be a complete mess. Li Tingting's case was even more urgent—this was a matter of life and death; the sooner the medicine arrived, the sooner Tingting would smile. As for Ma Shufen, the sister-in-law, the village matriarchs would surely be as eager as wolf mothers. Though the county visit was expected, even with a slight suspicion of being seen as a "young romantic," the full amount of one thousand yuan was no small sum for Lu Yun, who was determined to make his uncle and aunt's lives comfortable. While pondering these matters, Lu Yun suddenly remembered Ling Xiaoman.
"I wonder how Ms. Ling will spend this weekend?" Lu Yun murmured. "Lu Yun, are you there? Come out for a moment if you are." As soon as Lu Yun finished speaking, a sudden call from Ling Xiaoman came from outside the dorm. Hurriedly jumping out of bed, Lu Yun dressed while responding, "Yes, I'm right here—coming right up!" Rushing out of the dorm, Lu Yun scanned the surroundings. Ling Xiaoman was smiling warmly, standing a little way off, waving her hand. "Right here," she said. Lu Yun hurried over and smiled, "Ms. Ling, so early? Didn't you get much sleep?" Ling Xiaoman replied, "It's not that early anymore. Besides, this weekend—when do you plan to go home?" "Wait until it's a bit brighter. The dark road isn't safe right now." Ling Xiaoman nodded, then hesitated slightly and said, "This week, would you mind if I went to your place again?" Lu Yun paused, startled, and stammered, "Ms. Ling, what a fool—what a fool—" "Didn't he already run away scared when he was visited by Uncle San?"
"There won't be any problem," said Ling Xiaoman, her expression still hesitant and pleading. "Did I maybe cause you and your uncle and aunt any trouble by coming to your place? If so, then I won't go at all—I'll just head back to my office. Just take your time riding your bike on the way." Saying this, she turned and began to walk away.
