Chapter 279 - 279 The two hundred and seventy-ninth rule No Skipping Home

279: The two hundred and seventy-ninth rule: No Skipping Home 279: The two hundred and seventy-ninth rule: No Skipping Home Wu Xiaoyu was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by the sound of his door unlocking.

Last time he slept here, Bai Kainan came to check on him in the middle of the night.

Could it be another inspection tonight?

Just as he was about to start snoring to brush it off, he heard the door open and someone walk in.

Judging by the footsteps, it couldn’t be Bai Kainan.

Could it be…

Bai Yun?

Bai Yun knew about his sleep habits.

If she came to his room in the middle of the night, could it be that she had ulterior motives?

Wu Xiaoyu unconsciously held his breath and opened his eyes slightly.

In the bright moonlight, he immediately recognized the figure standing by his bed.

It wasn’t Bai Yun!

It was Li Qianqian!

Wu Xiaoyu quickly wrapped the quilt around himself and suddenly sat up, pretending to be a ghost: “Little ghost, where do you think you’re going?

I see you, you can’t escape!”

Li Qianqian, instead of being scared, burst into laughter: “What…

what are you doing?”

Wu Xiaoyu had hoped to scare Li Qianqian away by pretending to be a ghost, but she wasn’t afraid at all, leaving him feeling helpless!

“What are you doing here in the middle of the night?” Wu Xiaoyu finally gave up on his act and asked softly.

“Oh!

So you weren’t asleep, you were just pretending?” Li Qianqian said, realizing it.

Damn!

So you believed it earlier?

Even if you did, why didn’t you show any fear?

Wu Xiaoyu sighed and questioned: “Why aren’t you sleeping in your own room?

What are you doing in mine?”

Li Qianqian, slightly annoyed, said: “Do you dislike me that much?

Coming to you in the middle of the night, I must have something important to discuss!”

In the moonlight, Wu Xiaoyu faintly saw her serious expression and couldn’t help but soften a little, asking: “What’s wrong?

What happened?”

Li Qianqian slowly took a few steps forward, sat on the edge of Wu Xiaoyu’s bed, glanced at his quilt, and began to smile.

“What exactly are you up to?” Wu Xiaoyu asked, barely containing his anger.

Li Qianqian grabbed the corner of his quilt and laughed: “You’re not…

wearing clothes, are you?”

Damn it!

You’re a girl breaking into my room in the middle of the night, and now you’re asking if I’m wearing clothes?

What are you thinking?

Seeing him pull the quilt tighter around himself, Li Qianqian stopped joking and seriously said: “Let’s go out now?”

“Go out?

At this hour?

What for?” Wu Xiaoyu asked, annoyed.

Li Qianqian twirled her hair and said: “We’ll escape, find somewhere to stay for the night, and then head to Longhe Town tomorrow morning.

How does that sound?”

Longhe Town?

Wu Xiaoyu looked at Li Qianqian, dumbfounded, and after a moment finally understood.

This girl was planning to run away from home again!

If her uncles found out, they’d flay him alive!

Li Qianqian’s idea of running away shocked Wu Xiaoyu.

Even if her uncles didn’t find out, he couldn’t imagine what punishment awaited him.

And what about his Jiji?

It can’t afford her freeloading.

He ran a restaurant to make money, not to support her.

“Are you crazy?

If we just leave like this, your uncles will send people to my restaurant to fetch you tomorrow morning.

Believe it or not?” Wu Xiaoyu explained.

Li Qianqian pouted and looked at the floor, her face full of sorrow.

Wu Xiaoyu thought she was giving up and felt relieved.

He was about to send Li Qianqian back to sleep when she suddenly raised her head again, excitedly saying:

“Then I’ll go first, and you follow tomorrow.

This way, they won’t suspect I went to you!”

Damn it!

Do you think your uncles are as dumb as you?

They will investigate!

Moreover, Bai Yun knows you stayed at his place last time for several days.

If you suddenly disappear from Bai Yun’s house, to avoid punishment from your uncles and grandfather, she will definitely give you up without hesitation.

Seeing Li Qianqian was determined to run away, Wu Xiaoyu had no choice but to persuade her kindly: “Why can’t you just stay home peacefully?”

“If you leave without saying anything, your grandfather will worry.

He’s already old.

What if he falls ill from the stress?”

Indeed, upon hearing that Elder Mu would be worried and might fall ill, she instantly deflated like a punctured balloon.

Seeing this, Wu Xiaoyu continued to persuade: “Quickly go back to sleep!

Stop thinking about running away from home.

You’re not a child anymore; you should understand some things by now!”

Li Qianqian cast a resentful glance at Wu Xiaoyu, then lowered her head and stared at the floor, saying faintly: “But…

but, the food at Jiji is so delicious!”

Damn it!

You want to run away just to freeload at his place.

If he’d known, he should have fed you pig slop!

“Well…

the food at Bai Yun’s hotel uses the same ingredients as ours at Jiji, and the taste is almost identical.

If you crave it, you can come to Jiacheng County!” Wu Xiaoyu suggested.

Li Qianqian still looked unhappy, hesitatingly said: “But…

but, I want to see you!

If I stay at Jiji, I can see you often!”

Wu Xiaoyu was feeling both amused and helpless.

Rubbing his forehead, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Why did she have to cling to him?

As he was wondering how to persuade Li Qianqian, he suddenly remembered that Mu Zhuangfei wanted to make him a coach and that he would have to train special warfare soldiers in the city every Saturday.

He excitedly said:

“I will go to the city every Saturday from now on.

If you want to see me, there will be plenty of chances.

Now, go back to sleep, okay?”

Hearing that he would be in the city every Saturday, Li Qianqian’s face lit up with joy and she smiled brightly.

“Really?

You better not be lying to me!

Or I’ll have my second uncle arrest you!” Li Qianqian threatened with a smile.

Wu Xiaoyu repeatedly assured her: “I’m not lying!

If you don’t believe me, go ask your second uncle.

If I’m lying, you can come find me in Longhe Town anytime, okay?”

Li Qianqian finally believed him and smiled: “Well, you have to meet me every time then!”

Wu Xiaoyu smiled bitterly but reluctantly agreed: “Alright!

I’ll meet you every time.

Now, go back to sleep, okay?”

Li Qianqian looked him over again, got up slowly, and tiptoed to the door.

Once Li Qianqian left, Wu Xiaoyu immediately jumped out of bed, ran to the door, locked it, and then went back to sleep.

The next morning, Wu Xiaoyu was still dreaming when he was awakened by a loud knocking on the door.

“Wu Xiaoyu…

Wu Xiaoyu…

get up!” Li Qianqian shouted while knocking on the door.

Damn it!

This girl’s got a screw loose!

Knocking on his door early in the morning!

Can’t a guy sleep?

“What do you want?” Wu Xiaoyu roared.

Hearing his roar, Li Qianqian finally stopped knocking and cheerfully said: “Wu Xiaoyu, breakfast is ready.

Come and eat!”

Her slightly coquettish tone gave Wu Xiaoyu goosebumps.

She must have learned this from watching Japanese dramas, right?
