“Treasures? I have,” Sheng Yang said lightly.
Jin looked at her expectantly, but her eyes remained distant. “But we’re not in a relationship where we tell each other secrets.”
Jin Lu was stunned for a moment. Looking at Sheng Yang’s back, he couldn’t help but rub his nose.
Had she read his mind, or was it just her nature to be straightforward?
But from what he knew of her, the latter was probably much more likely.
Luo Mengmeng happened to pass by and saw this scene. She made a mental note. Pure direct men could calmly face two-sided hypocritical women, and vice versa. It turned out that two-sided hypocritical men didn’t have any effects on pure direct women like Yangyang.
What book lending and academic policies? He shouldn’t even dream about sharing books with her!

Yi Juncheng and Sheng Yang arranged to meet at the old man’s house to avoid attracting too much attention at the school buildings.
Yi Juncheng crossed his arms in front of his chest. The wind blew the hair on his forehead, and the look in his eyes was a stark contrast from his age. “Old man, what’s your motive for getting close to Yangyang?”
Fu Sheng, who was the old man, laughed dryly. He was really afraid of being alone with this young master. Without that girl called Sheng Yang, this young master would always show his unreasonable side to him. It was creepy.
“What purpose could I have? I’m just an old janitor.”
Yi Juncheng’s eyes turned cold. “Don’t think I can’t tell that you approached Yangyang with ulterior motives. For now, I can’t see your malice. Yangyang also likes your books very much, but… as long as you dare to have other thoughts…”
His cold gaze swept across Fu Sheng’s wrinkled face. “I have many ways to let Yangyang gain your inheritance.”
“…” Fu Sheng couldn’t help but touch his cold neck.
The meaning of Young Master Yi’s words was obvious. He had to keep the books. It did not matter if he wanted them or not.
“How would I dare?” Fu Sheng’s face wrinkled.
At this moment, Sheng Yang happened to come with her school bag on her back. She looked at the two of them suspiciously. “What are the two of you chatting so happily about?”
Fu Sheng was speechless.
This young lady’s train of thought was also very unusual. As expected of her, though she was grat at certain aspects, she lacked in others.
The new house had already been constructed. As expected, the windows were bright and clean. Overall, it was much more spacious. After Young Master Yi entered, he could stretch his legs and finally feel comfortable..
Eight large floor-to-ceiling bookshelves were just enough to place Fu Sheng’s books. The books were no longer crowded together and were placed comfortably on the shelves while protected by glass. However, Fu Sheng felt that something was wrong no matter how he looked at it. He felt that there was no longer the feeling he had when those books were placed on the floor. He sighed deeply. Forget it. He could not win against this young master’s personality anyway.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, “Where’s my old house?”
“Of course, I bulldozed it,” Yi Juncheng said indifferently. How could he be inefficient?
There was still a glimmer of hope in Fu Sheng’s eyes. “What about the old rag?”
“I threw it away.”
“…”
What he was afraid of really happened. At this moment, there were knocks on the door. “Old Fu, when did you change houses? I wanted to borrow money from you to buy materials some time ago, but didn’t you say that you didn’t have any money?”
Sheng Yang’s ears twitched. This voice sounded familiar.
