Chapter 891: Xiao Chong Side Story 10_2

He just couldn’t face Lin Wanwan’s temptation, even if she was unaware.

Feeling a bit bored with the tasks, Lin Wanwan decided to chat more with Xiao Chong to relax.

"Your parents are here, so is tomorrow’s combat class inconvenient for you?"

Xiao Chong replied, "It won’t affect me. It’s just like before, they’ll leave for school early in the morning."

"Oh." Lin Wanwan nodded, not saying much more.

"Wanwan," Xiao Chong suddenly called her name amid the silence, looking at her deeply.

Lin Wanwan raised her eyes, gazing at him against the backlight: "Hmm?"

He always called her "Wanwan," with a hint of affection, never by her full name, his natural closeness was quite strong.

And Lin Wanwan, although she wouldn’t admit she had a crush on looks, in reality, Xiao Chong’s appearance didn’t bother her.

With another average guy suddenly calling her "Wanwan," she would certainly ignore him.

After mysteriously calling her name, Xiao Chong didn’t continue speaking as if just hearing her response was enough.

Lin Wanwan was puzzled, looking at Xiao Chong opposite her, not understanding why he was suddenly silent.

After looking at her for a while, Xiao Chong suddenly smiled lightly and asked her, "Wanwan, have you ever seen a sunrise?"

"Sunrises require waking up very early, I haven’t." Lin Wanwan shook her head, she couldn’t wake up and didn’t have the leisure.

Xiao Chong had long guessed her answer. Although he had only known the young Lin Wanwan for two months after traveling through time, it was enough to understand her.

She was still the same person, her character, hobbies, and habits unchanged.

"Have you seen the sunrise?" Lin Wanwan asked, "What’s it like watching the sunrise?"

"It’s a stunning experience." Xiao Chong’s eyes had a glimmer that seemed like a projection of stars, with a magical pull, "If there’s a chance, let’s go see it together, how about it? On the sea, in the mountains, we’ll check them all out, you won’t be disappointed."

Xiao Chong started painting a picture for Lin Wanwan, describing the sunrise with exquisite language.

Being a seasoned player on the official path, one of his specialties was painting a picture for both superiors and subordinates.

An official who can’t paint a picture won’t last long.

Lin Wanwan imagined the scene described by Xiao Chong in her mind and accepted the idea, looking forward: "Sounds really nice, I’ll go if there’s a chance."

"Then I’ll call you next time."

"Okay."

After the idle chat, Lin Wanwan went back to her homework, and Xiao Chong returned to his desk to read.

In the deep quiet of night, only the sound of pen sliding against paper could be heard.

Not knowing how much time had passed, a paper plane flew into Lin Wanwan’s room.

She looked up, got up to pick up the paper plane from the floor, and opened it to see: It’s ten thirty, want to have a midnight snack to recharge?

Regarding food, Xiao Chong was never behind.

Lin Wanwan took the paper plane and walked to the window, looking at Xiao Chong at the opposite window.

They exchanged glances, and Xiao Chong smiled: "I’ll bring it over."

Lin Wanwan shook her head: "No need, I’m not hungry."

"Let’s have a bit together, if we can’t finish, it’d be a waste."

As Xiao Chong spoke, he was already remotely controlling a drone carrying a small basket, flying it towards Lin Wanwan’s room window.

This version of Xiao Chong was a boy fascinated by high-tech, with all kinds of gadgets.

Lin Wanwan, worried the drone might bump into things, moved aside, letting it land smoothly on her writing desk.

Then she stepped forward to look, in the basket was a bowl of milk and cereal, adorned with a few bright red cherries.

With the frequent nightly treats, Lin Wanwan felt she might be gaining weight.

After taking the bowl, the drone flew back along the same route.

The milk cereal had no added sugar, with sweetness purely from the cherries, rich milk flavor paired with the dry aroma of oats and tiny pieces of chopped beef, quite tasty, more nutritious than Lin Wanwan’s dinner.

After finishing the snack, Lin Wanwan took the bowl to the nearby public bathroom to wash it clean, then brushed her teeth and washed her face, preparing to sleep.

It’s late at night, time to rest.

After her light went out, the study room opposite, Xiao Chong’s, also fell into darkness not long after.

Having just finished their midnight snack, neither of them could fall asleep immediately.

In each other’s bedtime stories, shadows of the other lingered.

Early the next morning, Lin Wanwan heard the sound of a car engine starting next door, peeked out the window, and saw Xiao Chong’s father and mother’s car, parked at the villa’s rear parking spot, starting up.
