Chapter 117: Chapter 117: I’m Not Very Familiar with My Girlfriend’s Business, Please Advise

Lin Yixun took a seat by the window on the bus. The light outside cast shadows on her face, and Cold Yixiu’s words to her kept echoing in her mind.

She suddenly realized that she seemed to be deeply stuck in a quagmire. Despite her constant struggle, she was watching herself sink deeper.

What should she do?

On one side was her happiness, and on the other was Xing Yi’s future.

She slowly closed her eyes; she needed to think carefully, to think well. Maybe by tomorrow, all problems and difficulties would be solved.

Perhaps because of emotional exhaustion, Lin Yixun actually fell asleep on the bus. If it weren’t for a sudden phone call, she might have missed her stop.

The ringing of her phone woke her from her slumber, and she looked down subconsciously to see Xing Yi’s name on the screen.

Lin Yixun hurriedly answered the call, "Hello, Senior? Why didn’t you answer my call?"

"Yixun, I’m sorry. I was discussing the thesis with a student just now and didn’t hear the phone ring. I’m sorry to have worried you."

"Did you find the graduate student you were mentoring?"

"Yes." Xing Yi paused and added, "He has agreed to help me clarify this matter."

"Really?" Lin Yixun couldn’t help but feel delighted and exclaimed excitedly, "If that’s the case, that’s great."

"A pure heart is not afraid of shadows. This mess can’t tarnish me."

Lin Yixun felt tears welling up in her eyes. As the saying goes, the boat will straighten when it reaches the bridge. It seems the wisdom of the ancestors isn’t without merit.

"Senior, are you hungry? How about I treat you to a late-night snack? You missed it yesterday, so I’ll make up for it today."

"Sure, I’m quite hungry."

The two agreed to meet at a restaurant near T University’s gate. The restaurant’s exterior wasn’t impressive, but the food inside was delicious. Although Xing Yi had lived a privileged life since childhood, he didn’t care much about the restaurant’s environment.

At the dinner table, Lin Yixun couldn’t help but inquire about the whole situation. Although Xing Yi summarized it lightly, from his description, Lin Yixun could easily guess that he had put in a considerable effort to persuade that student to testify.

"Anyway, in the end, it was a close call. Senior, cheers to you!" Lin Yixun used tea instead of wine and drank it all at once.

Xing Yi smiled and clinked his cup with hers, gazing deep into her eyes, "Actually, I’m somewhat grateful. If it weren’t for this incident, how could I have transitioned from intern to full-time so quickly."

Lin Yixun was slightly stunned, then quickly understood, her face blushed. She rolled her eyes and said, "Senior, can I take back what I said that day?"

"How can that be? Words once spoken are like water spilled, how can they be taken back?"

"Well... alright." Lin Yixun coughed slightly and suddenly extended her hand towards Xing Yi, "Dear boyfriend, I’m new here and not very familiar with girlfriend duties. Please advise me."

Xing Yi was amused by Lin Yixun’s sudden gesture, and cooperatively extended his hand, mimicking her tone, "Dear girlfriend, I’m also new here and not very familiar with the duties. If there are any mistakes, please forgive me."

The two shared a smile, suddenly realizing that tonight’s atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.

Lin Yixun thought, maybe in the near future, she would truly fall in love with this gentle and refined man in front of her.

However, fate often liked to play tricks on Lin Yixun. When she thought she saw a glimmer of hope, fate would strike her with a fatal blow.
