Wen Xiaochu was surprised. “You’re moving? Aren’t you living in the dormitory anymore?”

Xia Yangyang replied, “I’ve rented a house outside, I’m moving out tonight.”

Wen Xiaochu was very surprised and asked further, “Why are you moving out?

Isn’t it great for the four of us to live together?”

Gong Xue’er suddenly interjected, “Xiao Chu, don’t ask anymore. She is a daughter of a wealthy family, so she probably isn’t used to living in such a shabby campus dorm.”

Wen Xiaochu was at a loss for words, surprised at the tone Gong Xue’er used, filled with sarcasm.

But, weren’t the two of them the best of friends?

Did they have a quarrel?

Xia Yangyang did not respond to Gong Xue’er’s words and quietly continued packing her things.

In fact, she didn’t have many things; her new suitcase was far from full.

Wen Xiaochu helped Xia Yangyang move.

The two of them rented a car and relocated the luggage to Maple Villa.

When the car stopped at the residential area entrance, Wen Xiaochu was surprised, “So you live here too?”

“Too?” Xia Yangyang was puzzled.

Wen Xiaochu quickly laughed and said, “Well, I heard a lot of celebrities live here. If you happen to bump into any, remember to get me an autograph.”

In fact, the chance of running into a celebrity here is quite slim. Every villa is independent, surrounded by tall trees, each with its own private driveway. It’s possible to live here for years without knowing who your neighbor is.

After moving, the sky had turned dark. Xia Yangyang said, “I’ll treat you to dinner tonight, let’s go to Qian’s Courtyard.”

Wen Xiaochu quickly replied, “Let me treat you instead. If it weren’t for you today, I would probably have been disfigured.”

Xia Yangyang didn’t say anything and the two of them went to Qian’s Courtyard together.

There were a lot of questions about Xia Yangyang in Wen Xiaochu’s heart: like why she moved out suddenly, why she broke up with Young Master Lu, and what happened between her and Gong Xue’er.

But she felt it inappropriate to ask about personal and emotional matters.

So during dinner, she carefully chose a safe topic.

Wen Xiaochu asked, “Did you have a fight with Xue’er?”

Mentioning Gong Xue’er, Xia Yangyang only felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Xia Yangyang said, “Don’t ask about that, my… relationship with her seems to have run its course.”

Seeing a hint of pain flash in Xia Yangyang’s eyes, Wen Xiaochu suddenly regretted her question. Perhaps she shouldn’t have asked.

Wen Xiaochu said, “Never mind, let’s drop the subject. Yangyang, if you’re feeling down, let’s have some drinks.”

After all that had occurred today, Xia Yangyang was actually feeling extremely frustrated.

So she didn’t object, even though, she knew she didn’t have a strong tolerance for alcohol.

Wen Xiaochu didn’t expect Xia Yangyang to get utterly drunk after just two beers.

With no other choice, she had to take Xia Yangyang back to Maple Villa.

After making sure Xia Yangyang was asleep, Wen Xiaochu left alone.

In the exclusive driveway of the villa, Wen Xiaochu saw a black Bentley.

Could it be that Xia Yangyang wasn’t living alone?

Perhaps it was her family? Although Wen Xiaochu was puzzled, she didn’t think too much about it.

When Gu Qichen arrived at the villa, he noticed that the lights in the bedroom were on.

Good, it seemed Xia Yangyang had moved here, pretty swiftly.

But when Gu Qichen saw Xia Yangyang, smelling of alcohol, and in a half-asleep state on the bed, he couldn’t help but frown.

This girl, she dared to drink!

Gu Qichen sat by the bed and touched Xia Yangyang’s flushed face.

Xia Yangyang was woken up by the cold touch.. She opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw Gu Qichen’s slightly furrowed brow, she laughed, saying, “Brother Haotian, you’re back!”
