Chapter 82

(This morning, I found out that the internet at home was down. This chapter is being sent from an internet cafe. I hope everyone can understand. I have already called the internet service provider and they estimate it will be fixed by this afternoon.≧)

Chen Mo was comfortably blowing the electric fan when Li Ranzhu knocked on his door. In fact, Chen Mo's door was not even closed; Li Ranzhu's knock was just out of politeness.

Seeing a hand as white as jade knocking on the door, Chen Mo then saw Li Ranzhu's side face peeking in. He immediately got up and said, "Sister, is there something you need?"

Li Ranzhu was very fair-skinned, while Chen Mo, due to often helping his parents fish at sea, was very tanned. Their skin tones were like black and white, forming a stark contrast.

Li Ranzhu smiled at Chen Mo and said, "Little Chen, we are neighbors now. We should take care of each other in the future."

Seeing Li Ranzhu's smile, Chen Mo couldn't help but think to himself: This sister is so beautiful, especially her skin. How can it be so fair?

Chen Mo thought this in his heart but smiled and said, "Taking care of each other is only right, but I won't be living here in the future—don't misunderstand, it's not because you moved in that I'm leaving. It's because I need to study and live in the school dormitory."

Hearing this, Li Ranzhu felt a sense of relief. She feigned a regretful look and said, "Oh, that's too bad. I thought we would be living together for a long time."

The two chatted politely for a few more sentences, and then Li Ranzhu said goodbye and went upstairs.

While Li Ranzhu was speaking, she maintained a polite demeanor, though she concealed it well, Chen Mo could still sense her wariness towards him.

After Li Ranzhu went upstairs, Chen Mo couldn't help but shake his head with a smile. Li Ranzhu was clearly from a big city. Could it be that people from big cities were so distrustful of others? Even if you are very beautiful, it doesn't mean that all men will have improper thoughts about you.

Chen Mo smiled, then collected his thoughts and looked at the time. It was almost noon, and he hadn't eaten anything in the morning. He was very hungry. He closed the door and headed to the kitchen.

After Li Ranzhu returned to the second floor, Li Ranxiang immediately asked, "Little sister, did you greet him?"

Li Ranzhu smiled and said, "This boy is quite sensible. He said he's here to pack up his things and will move to the school dormitory. Sister, it seems we don't need to look for another place to stay."

Li Ranxiang thought this was good and nodded with a smile, "Oh, that's great. It saves us the trouble of moving around."

Just as Li Ranxiang finished speaking, Chen Mo's voice came from downstairs, "Sisters, have you had lunch yet? I'm about to cook. If you don't mind, would you like to join me for a meal?"

Li Ranzhu and Li Ranxiang exchanged glances. Then Li Ranxiang shook her head and said, "I think it's better not to. You can go out and buy something to eat later. We don't want to trouble you."

Li Ranzhu nodded and walked to the stairs, smiling at Chen Mo, "Little Chen, thank you for your offer, but we don't want to trouble you. We'll go out and buy something to eat later."

Chen Mo was just being polite. If he ignored Li Ranzhu and Li Ranxiang, how would Tian Jie's good friend view her?

Hearing Li Ranzhu's words, Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Oh, then I'll cook for myself."

Li Ranzhu smiled and nodded, then went back to the living room to inform her sister. She then went downstairs to buy lunch.

After both sides had their lunch, Chen Mo politely said goodbye to the two and left the villa. He went directly to the No. 3 teaching building of Linhai University according to the information on his admission notice. From a distance, he saw a banner: "Warmly welcome the arrival of the Southern Genius Youth Class students!"

Under the banner, a woman wearing glasses was sitting at a table, doing nothing. Chen Mo recognized her immediately. After a closer look, he realized it was Tian Tian.

Tian Tian was wearing a shirt and long pants, with her hair tied up high, looking sharp and efficient, which was very different from her usual fashionable style. That's why Chen Mo didn't recognize her at first.

Chen Mo smiled and walked over quickly. Seeing no one around, he asked loudly, "Sister Tian, why are you sitting here?"

Tian Tian was dozing off, propping her chin with her hand. Hearing this, she immediately looked up and saw Chen Mo. She said happily, "It's Xiao Mo. I'm doing reception work. Why are you here?"

Chen Mo looked at the banner and guessed who Tian Tian was welcoming. He nodded at the banner and said, "Sister Tian, are you welcoming the students of the Genius Youth Class?"

Tian Tian nodded, "Yes, I've been doing reception work for a week—Xiao Mo, you... you're not a student of the Genius Youth Class, are you?"

Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Sister Tian, you guessed right. I'm here to study."

Hearing this, Tian Tian was stunned for a moment and then exclaimed, "You... you're a student of the Genius Youth Class!"

Seeing Tian Tian's shocked expression, Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh, "What, I can't study in the Genius Youth Class?"

Tian Tian seemed to realize she was overreacting and smiled awkwardly, "Not at all. You're so smart, it's only fitting that you study here. Come, let me register you."

Tian Tian opened the record book, and Chen Mo handed her the admission notice. He then asked, "Sister Tian, don't you have a list of students? How could you not know I'm studying here?"

Tian Tian replied while making notes, "There was a list, but your teacher lost it. So I have to register you based on the admission notice. Speaking of which, your teacher is really unreliable. He's so careless, I wonder how he will teach you in the future."

It was the afternoon, and the temperature was very high. Although there was a big tree next to the registration desk, the shade couldn't completely block the heat. Tian Tian was dressed formally in a long-sleeved shirt and long pants. Because of the heat, she had unbuttoned one more button on her shirt. As she leaned over to write, her collar naturally flipped open, and Chen Mo, standing opposite her, could see the peaks of her chest wrapped in a white bra.

Chen Mo's heart raced, and he quickly looked away, "Sister Tian, don't you have classes? Why are you here doing reception?"

Tian Tian said helplessly, "The school leadership wants to create a good image, so they asked me to come. Don't you think it's boring? They're even doing this with you half-grown kids."

Hearing this, Chen Mo also found it a bit boring. His classmates were definitely young; otherwise, they wouldn't be called the Genius Youth Class. Why did Linhai University ask Sister Tian to come? Do they want these students to see the beautiful women at Linhai University?

Thinking about this, Chen Mo couldn't help but steal a glance at Tian Tian's chest, then thought: Sister Tian is really not careful. This is such a loss. Should I remind her? If I do, how should I say it?
