Chapter 85

Jiantao called both Wu Xiuhua and Liu Xin. In the phone calls, he only said that he would be staying at school due to the intense review sessions recently. Liu Xin was somewhat unwilling; with Jiantao staying at school, no one would be there to keep her company. However, considering that Jiantao was about to take the college entrance exam, she had to agree, only asking him to come back often.

While Wu Mama was tidying up, Jiantao chatted with the mayor and Su Qing for a while.

"Mayor, Madam, the room is cleaned up. Should I let the little doctor check if there's anything unsuitable, and I'll tidy it up again?" Wu Mama called from upstairs.

"Yes, little doctor, go up and check if there's anything you need," the mayor said with a smile, looking at Jiantao. From Jiantao, he learned that he still couldn't act and would have to wait a couple more days. However, he wasn't disappointed; he had already endured for years, so a few more days wouldn't matter.

Seeing Jiantao come upstairs, Wu Mama suddenly remembered that the garbage bag at Xia Shihan's door hadn't been taken away yet. She walked to his door and picked up the garbage bag. Seeing Jiantao walk over, she smiled and said, "Little doctor, you go check first. If you need anything, just let me know."

"Sure. Thank you, Wu Mama." Jiantao nodded.

"Hehe, you're too kind, you're too kind. Alright, I'll go downstairs." Wu Mama smiled and walked down.

Jiantao nodded and walked to the door Wu Mama had just left, then went straight in. When he entered, he was taken aback; he didn't expect it to be so well-arranged! Everything was there: a sofa, a computer, and even a heart-shaped bed. The walls were also adorned with many small decorations. Jiantao didn't mind; the faint fragrance made it seem more like a girl's room. But thinking that all this was funded by the government, he didn't think much more. Looking at the bed, he felt a wave of drowsiness. After all, he had consumed a lot of energy today. Perhaps it was because it was his first time using acupuncture, and he lacked experience, leading to a significant loss of true qi. The conversation earlier had been fine, but now the fatigue was creeping back. Jiantao decided to take a nap and fell asleep on the bed. A good nap might help.

Downstairs.

"Shihan, now that Jiantao has gone, can you tell us what's going on between you two?" Su Qing asked, looking at Xia Shihan.

"I... Mom..." Xia Shihan's face turned a light shade of red. What was going on between them? She didn't know how to explain it.

"Yes, dear daughter, tell us," the mayor also asked curiously. He could only confirm that they knew each other and were quite familiar, but he wanted to know what had happened.

Seeing the expectant looks of Su Qing and the mayor, Xia Shihan's lips moved a few times, but she still didn't know how to say it. If she didn't, they wouldn't let her off.

"Dad, Mom, he... he wants to date me!" Xia Shihan bit her lip and said shyly.

"Good. Jiantao is a good boy. I think it's fine. Go ahead and date him!" Su Qing had no objections to this.

"Yes, the little doctor is indeed a good person. I've never seen a high school student as capable as him. I have no objections either." The mayor also seemed to be swayed by Jiantao, firmly standing on his side.

"Ah, Dad. How can you be like this? Didn't you say I wasn't allowed to date in high school? You criticized and educated me for a long time about this. How could you forget so quickly? Now you're making me do this. Aren't you just shooting yourself in the foot? Humph!" Xia Shihan turned her face away, thinking, "What did Jiantao give them to make them speak for him like this?"

"I... This... How can this be shooting myself in the foot? This is keeping up with the times and constantly innovating. Times change, and so do people. Of course, I'm not saying you should start dating the little doctor right away. You can temporarily establish a romantic relationship and then date when you're in college," the mayor argued.

"How can you do that! Establish a romantic relationship and then date in college! What kind of logic is that? Do you think this is an arranged marriage?" Xia Shihan glared at the mayor.

"Alright, alright, let's pause this. By the way, why hasn't Jiantao come down yet?" Su Qing asked curiously.

"Probably because he's asleep. He was severely drained today!" The mayor said with a hint of sympathy.

"Shihan, go check on Jiantao," Su Qing said.

"What's there to check?" Xia Shihan huffed.

"Go, or I'll cut your allowance in half next month," Su Qing suddenly said.

"Mom, you..." Xia Shihan was helpless, not understanding why they liked Jiantao so much. She had no choice but to stand up and walk upstairs. When she reached the neighboring room and peeked inside, she was surprised to find the bed empty. Where could he have gone?

"Oh no..." Xia Shihan's heart skipped a beat. She quickly rushed to her own room.

"Ah..." Xia Shihan was stunned. On the heart-shaped bed she had specially chosen, Jiantao was lying, and he had even put her blanket to his mouth.

Xia Shihan was furious. "Get up!" she shouted.

But Jiantao was sleeping soundly and didn't hear her.

Seeing that Jiantao wasn't waking up, Xia Shihan became even angrier. She walked over, picked up her pillow, and hit Jiantao on the head. "Get up, you lazy pig, wake up!"

"Ugh..." Although the pillow was soft, Jiantao was still woken up. He opened his eyes groggily and saw Xia Shihan looking furious.

"Does my sleeping bother you?" Jiantao looked at her speechlessly.

"Your sleeping doesn't bother me, but the problem is that you're sleeping on my bed. Get out!" Xia Shihan pointed to the door.

"Your... bed?" Jiantao was shocked. No wonder the blanket smelled like Xia Shihan. He had been hugging it tightly, and even in his deep sleep, he had been fantasizing about her. Jiantao realized he had entered the wrong room!

"Ugh, hehe, Shihan, I, I..."

"Get out."

"Don't hit me, I'm leaving..."

Jiantao was speechless. He returned to his room, still smelling the fragrance of Xia Shihan's bed on his hands and body. He couldn't believe he had entered the wrong room! Sleeping on her bed felt like hugging her.

He looked around his room. It was fine, everything was there, similar to Xia Shihan's room, but without any fragrance.

When you're extremely tired, even a minute of sleep can make you feel refreshed when you wake up.

Since there was nothing to do and he wasn't tired anymore,

"Hmph. That damn bad guy, sleeping on my bed!" Jiantao heard Xia Shihan's angry voice from the other side. With his透视 (X-ray vision), he could clearly see Xia Shihan folding the blanket he had messed up and sniffing it. "Hmph, it's all contaminated!"

Jiantao smiled helplessly. With this透视 (X-ray vision), the wall might as well not be there. Seeing Xia Shihan finish tidying up and angrily walk to her computer, she opened her Apple laptop.

Jiantao was taken aback. Around this time every day, he would chat with Shihan. She was probably chatting with someone from the Tang Dynasty universe. Jiantao quickly walked over, closed the door, and opened his computer.

"Hmph, I knew you'd be online!" Xia Shihan heard the sound of Jiantao's computer starting and muttered angrily.

Jiantao immediately set his computer to silent mode; otherwise, if a message came from the other side, the QQ notification would sound, and it would definitely cause trouble!

As he flipped through the pages, an ad appeared at the top.
