Chapter 777: Chapter 777: Let Him Make Up the Lesson
Huo Linzhou’s face grew more and more grim.
He coldly looked at Chen Shanshan, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Chen Shanshan immediately covered her mouth: "Linzhou, I’m not speaking ill of her, I’m just worried that she hasn’t told you the truth and you might be deceived by her."
Huo Linzhou said, "Shut up!"
Chen Shanshan was startled.
Huo Linzhou, who had always been gentle and elegant in front of others, actually showed anger towards her.
Chen Shanshan didn’t expect Huo Linzhou to have such a side, and for a moment, she was at a loss.
Huo Zijin chuckled, savoring the moment until Chen Shanshan sent her a look. Huo Zijin raised a bewildered smile and continued quietly eating.
Chen Shanshan was so angry she could almost burst into flames!
After having lunch at noon.
Huo Linzhou sent his sister to the dormitory door.
Huo Linzhou: "Pack your luggage first, I’ll wait for you downstairs."
Huo Zijin responded with a "Hmm."
She turned and entered the dormitory, going upstairs.
Inside the dormitory.
The roommates were all there.
After lunch, several roommates were chatting on the balcony, accidentally witnessing Huo Linzhou delivering Liang Yin to the dormitory door, and seeing Liang Yin go inside, while Huo Linzhou still waited downstairs, causing some confusion.
Once Huo Zijin entered the dormitory and started packing, the chubby girl Zhou Zhou came over, "Liang Yin, what are you doing?"
Huo Zijin replied, "I’m planning to submit a day student application to the academic office this afternoon, so I won’t be staying in the dormitory anymore."
Zhou Zhou was somewhat surprised and said, "You’re not staying in the dorms, are you renting a place outside?"
Huo Zijin looked at Zhou Zhou: "I’m going to live at home."
Zhou Zhou said, "Which home? Have you rented a place outside?"
Huo Zijin was noncommittal.
Zhou Zhou suddenly came up with a bold guess, lowered her voice: "You wouldn’t... be moving in with Huo, would you?"
Huo Zijin tilted her head: "Sort of!"
Zhou Zhou covered her mouth in surprise: "Oh my! You’re so daring! Aren’t you worried about the school finding out?"
Huo Zijin said, "University students dating doesn’t seem to violate school rules, right? Even if I date, live together with my boyfriend, or even get married and have children, the school has no grounds to judge me on that."
Zhou Zhou couldn’t argue, nodded: "That’s true."
A few roommates came over: "Liang Yin, is what they’re saying at school really true?"
Huo Zijin said, "I haven’t been at school the past few days, so I’m not sure what’s being said about me."
"There’s talk that you... were pregnant and secretly went for an abortion."
"And some say you’re planning to get engaged to Huo... Although the school tacitly allows students to marry during their studies, if you get married and pregnant, it’s weird to study with a big belly!"
"Exactly! Getting married so early, you’re still a student, isn’t it too soon?"
Huo Zijin paused her packing and looked at them: "Are... you concerned about me?"
The group was speechless.
But Zhou Zhou said, "Of course we’re concerned about you. After all, you’re a top student with a promising future. If you marry early, do you want to become a housewife?"
Huo Zijin said, "No, I want to pursue a postgraduate degree, and if possible after graduation, I’d like to study abroad and work towards becoming a Diplomat."
Zhou Zhou said, "Liang Yin, you’re amazing! Then I wish you and Huo the best."
Huo Zijin was somewhat surprised.
She hadn’t gone out of her way to clarify things, but most viewed the rumors of her and Huo Linzhou dating with disdain, yet this Zhou Zhou seemed genuinely kind-hearted.
Huo Zijin said touched: "Zhou Zhou, thank you."
Zhou Zhou said, "No gratitude needed; we’re good friends! I should be thanking you for helping me with fitness and weight loss!"
Huo Zijin said, "No problem, once I start studying day classes, I’ll still make time weekly for the gym. Let’s go together."
Zhou Zhou nodded.
Huo Zijin finished packing and carried her luggage downstairs.
Huo Linzhou was waiting at the dormitory entrance, seeing her with large bags, he went over to take them, but felt a weight in his hands. These items seemed small but were quite heavy.
Huo Zijin explained, "These are all books inside, so they’re a bit heavy."
Huo Linzhou responded, "Hmm": "Let’s go."
He carried the things in front, with Huo Zijin following behind.
Along the way, numerous people turned to look.
Some freshmen girls rarely saw Huo Linzhou and pretended to go in the same direction, trailing them just to catch a glimpse of the campus heartthrob.
Huo Zijin said, "Bro, you sure have a lot of fangirls."
Huo Linzhou glanced at her meaningfully, followed her gaze, and spotted the group of freshmen trailing them closely, then suddenly stopped walking.
The freshmen girls were startled and froze on the spot.
Huo Linzhou looked at them, seeing their frightened expressions, he casually asked, "Which class are you from?"
The freshmen exchanged looks, nervous and unsure of what to respond: "We are... from the engineering management major..."
"Do you have classes this afternoon?"
"Major... major specific courses... Yes, we do..."
Huo Linzhou said, "The teaching building is over there, you’ve got the wrong direction."
He pointed in a direction to the south.
The freshmen awkwardly nodded and walked in the opposite direction.
Huo Zijin laughed, "Some adorable freshmen followed you the whole way just for a glimpse of you. I’m truly lucky to have such a handsome academic heartthrob as my brother; I can see as much of you as I want."
Huo Linzhou’s handsome face turned slightly red: "As long as you want, I can stand and let you look all you want."
Huo Zijin smirked, walked over and took his arm: "Alright! When we get home, then let me look all I want!"
The two walked to the guard post, put down the luggage, and Huo Linzhou sent Huo Zijin to her class entrance before heading to the library.
...
Rong Residence.
Rong Yin was playing computer games when a servant knocked on the door.
"Young Master, Liang is here."
Upon hearing Liang Yin’s name, Rong Yin reflexively ended the game, shut the computer, and dashed out of the room.
He ran to the stairway, soon hearing Huo Zijin and Li Yufei’s voices downstairs.
"Liang Yin!!"
Rong Yin angrily shouted her name, walked to the stairway, ready to go down, only to see Huo Linzhou had arrived as well.
He stood beside Huo Zijin, casually crossing his arms, sizing up Rong Yin: "Finished your homework?"
Rong Yin froze: "Linzhou, why are you here?"
Huo Linzhou said, "I heard my sister is your home tutor, here to help you with your studies."
Rong Yin said, "Yes."
His brain stalled for several seconds, suddenly realizing: "What?! Your... your sister?"
Rong Yin pointed at Huo Zijin, then at Huo Linzhou: "She’s... your sister?"
Huo Linzhou: "Mm-hmm."
