The person who had been provoked was still giving Yán Luòxī earnest advice at this moment.

Yán Luòxī nodded, obediently agreeing without any enthusiasm. After finishing his porridge, he placed the bowl down and said, "Thank you for the breakfast, Mr. Li's teachings, and the dormitory provided by Mr. Li. I've decided to move into the dorm tonight. This way, it will be closer to the company, allowing me to save time in the morning for breakfast."

Lì n was amused to the point of laughter: "You little dead brat! I told you to learn to be cleverer, and you learned quickly. Now you're turning around to deal with your little lord!"

Yán Luòxī chuckled: "Aren't I just trying not to waste your teachings Mr. Li, shall I stop coming for breakfast tomorrow"

Seeing that she considered this a burden, Lì n couldn’t force her anymore and could only say with determination, “Eat or don’t eat as you please. But know that skipping breakfast can cause kidney stones, which will hurt like hell when they come!”

The words sent chills down Yán Luòxī's spine, and he hurriedly left the president’s office.

In the evening, after work, Yè Zǐxīn followed Hé Yǔfán and Yán Luòxī back to their dormitory, helping them pack up and move.

Thanks to his poverty, Yán Luòxī owned very little: one set of luggage, two bags of clothes. Packing was easy for him. Although Hé Yǔfán pursued fashion and didn't skimp on buying clothes, she discarded old ones as soon as new ones arrived, so there wasn’t much to move.

Ye Xinxin had already brought her belongings back home. She carefully helped He Yufan and Yan Luoxi check every nook and cranny to ensure that everything they needed was taken.

He Yufan went outside and casually recruited a few boys to help them carry the big and small packages downstairs, loading them into a small truck she had called earlier. Looking at their now empty dormitory beds and the light tubes on the ceiling, Yan Luoxi sighed with emotion: "Goodbye, my youth!"

"Stop being melancholic!" Excited He Yufan patted her shoulder: "You should say instead, Li An, we're here!"

Yan Luoxi couldn't help but shiver and quickly walked downstairs.

He Yufan had a lot of clout; those boys unconditionally escorted them to the Ainer International staff apartment complex and competed to carry their luggage upstairs for them.

He Yufan's voice was sweet as honey when dismissing them: "Haha, thank you guys so much. Otherwise, I would have been exhausted. It's late today, but let me treat you all to a meal another day, thanks everyone."

The boys were as tired as oxen, panting heavily without even getting a sip of water before being sent into the elevator with red faces by He Yufan.

"You're just mean," Ye Xinxin criticized her.

He Yufan chuckled: "The donkey didn't complain either, why should you care so much"

They chatted and packed up as they joked around. Ye Xinxin walked into the bedroom, quite satisfied with the two double beds in the room: "Our rear commander really thought everything through. Even having relatives and friends visit has been considered for us. They prepared double beds. I have to let you know now that I'll be coming over anytime from now on!"

He Yufan followed her inside, criticizing her without hesitation: "Do you think they were prepared just for you The other person is making it convenient for bringing friends back."

"I can't talk to you!" Ye Xinxin helplessly rolled her eyes, wondering when this perverted woman would change and stop thinking with her lower body.

He Yufan looked at Ye Xinxin's exasperated expression and deliberately swayed her hips in a provocative manner.

"Your moving speed is pretty fast. You've already moved in today!" Hearing this voice, Yan Luoxi, who was bending over to rummage through things in the living room, stiffened her back before slowly turning around. Li An was standing at the door wearing casual clothes, leaning against the door frame with his long eyebrows slightly raised and a barely concealed smile as he looked at her.

"What are you doing here" Yan Luoxi muttered softly, staring fiercely at him to express her displeasure, hoping that before He Yufan noticed him, he would just disappear.

However, the obvious revulsion in her expression seemed to have no effect on Li An. He put his hands in his pockets and tilted his head slightly as if gently asking: "Luoxi, are you hungry I'll take you out for dinner."

Hearing He Yufan's footsteps approaching, Yan Luoxi could only force a smile, loudly proclaiming: "Mr. Li, what a coincidence! You're free tonight" Her expression switched from anger to joy without transition, looking rather comical.

He Yufan was now in the living room and had not looked at Yan Luoxi with her twitching face but instead was captivated by the dazzling Li An standing by the door. She hadn't expected to see Li An here and at this moment; she could only repeat his name in excitement: "Mr. Li, Mr. Li..."

Ye Xinxin also came out and looked at Li An with great surprise and delight. Fortunately, she was usually composed and knew to gently say: "Mr. Li, would you like to come in for a seat"

Li An smiled amicably at her and straightened his body, casually glancing around the messy room a few times: "Never mind, I won't go in then. I reckon the three of you must have been too busy moving things to eat dinner, and since I haven’t eaten either, let’s go out for some food; I’ll treat everyone."

Yan Luoxi instinctively refused: "Mr. Li, we appreciate your kindness, but there are still items left to put away, so we can't go... Ah..." She cried softly in pain as He Yufan reached out and pinched her on the buttocks.

"Mr. Li, it’s all thanks to you for understanding our hardships that we could move into this dormitory. If there's anything to be invited to dinner, it should be us inviting you. Please wait a moment by the door while we wash our hands."

Li An saw Ye Xinxin scrunch up her face and couldn't help but smile inwardly: "You two take your time getting ready; I'll be waiting in the car downstairs."

A woman’s demeanor can vary greatly, so there are various ways to win them over. As Li An was long accustomed to dealing with complex situations, he knew well how to handle such matters. Since he couldn’t persuade Yan Luoxi, who was as stubborn as a stone monkey reborn, perhaps he could approach her close friend instead.

He Yufan heard that Li An wanted to treat them to dinner and got incredibly excited, rushing into the bathroom at top speed for a quick wash. She didn’t forget to scold Yan Luoxi along the way: "Please, can you be more clever in the future Can you think ahead instead of always reacting impulsively! I don't expect you to help me, but please don't get in my way either! Mr. Li is such a distinguished person; for him to offer to treat us to dinner shows how highly he thinks of us. How dare you just turn down his invitation outright!"

Seeing He Yufan’s excitement bordering on mania, Yan Luoxi was at a loss. She found it increasingly difficult to fathom Li An's true intentions—whether he genuinely liked He Yufan or if he was merely playing with her. Moreover, she didn’t know whether she should tell He Yufan about all the past conflicts between them. In any case, watching He Yufan charge ahead like this made Yan Luoxi worry for her friend.heavily.Her tears contained委屈 (grief), sadness, and even more, self-reproach.It was only today that Yan Luoxi realized how irrational, sluggish, and foolish she had been in dealing with her relationsh...
