Chapter 733: Habits are so scary!
As soon as Jian Dan returned to her dorm, she immediately made a video call to her uncle.
Chu Liyuan’s phone had been in his hand the whole time, occasionally glancing at it, and almost instantly pressed the answer button when he saw Jian Jian’s video invitation.
Seeing the person he missed appear on the screen, the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously.
Her uncle’s deep, magnetic voice stimulated Jian Dan’s eardrums.
“Uncle, it’s only been a day since I saw you!”
Upon hearing Jian Dan’s words, a hint of disappointment appeared on Chu Liyuan’s face.
After seeing her uncle’s expression, Jian Dan’s mouth curled up, “But why do I still miss you so much!”
Seeing the change in her uncle’s expression, a smile blossomed on Jian Dan’s face.
“Uncle, have you been thinking about me too?” Your quick response already proves it.
Have you had dinner yet?”
“I’ve eaten. I had some really delicious rice noodles. I’ll definitely take you there when I have time!”
“So have you been eating on time, uncle?”
“You had Chu Li accompany me, how could I not eat!”
“Good! Looks like Chu Li is doing her job well and not slacking off!”
“How does it feel to be back to being a student on your first day?”
“Hmm- I was quite excited before I came here, but after arriving, it turns out there’s not much feeling to it.”
Her uncle was so busy every day, and since Jian Dan could take care of things on her own, naturally, she didn’t bother him with the day’s events.
“Still, being with uncle is better!”
“Once I’ve finished my tasks here, I’ll return!”
“Take good care of yourself while I’m not there!”
“Don’t worry! I mean, I am a mother of four after all, how could I possibly not take care of myself!”
Chu Liyuan looked at Jian Dan…
He really was worried!
“If you come back thinner, you’ll have me to answer to.”
“It’s late, go to sleep early!”
“Okay! And you too, uncle, you should go to bed soon!”
The two, after hanging up the call, lay tossing and turning in their own beds, not feeling sleepy at all…
It’s true that habits can be scary. Without the other person by their side, the sleep quality of both, which wasn’t great to begin with, had gotten even worse.
The next morning, both of them went to work and school with heavy dark circles under their eyes.
Yang Xiaoting was planning to call Jian Dan to go to class together. Before she could even knock, the door opened from the inside.
She jumped when she saw Jian Dan emerge from inside, “What happened? Did you turn into a thief last night?” Those dark circles were enormous.
Jian Dan looked at Yang Xiaoting listlessly, “It’s probably just because I’m not used to the new environment yet!”
“Are you sure you can still go to class ? Don’t fall asleep in the middle of the lecture and get caught by that dog again!”
“No problem, I’ve got this!” Jian Dan forced a smile.
On the way to the classroom, Jian Dan couldn’t stop yawning.
As soon as she entered the classroom, Jian Dan sprawled out over the desk like a dehydrated octopus.
“Jian, are you sure you can do this?” Yang Xiaoting asked again.
If she got caught by that dog again, Jian Dan might really get expelled.
“Yeah!” Although she felt weak and lacked strength, she wanted to persevere, so Xiaoting wouldn’t worry.
After hearing Jian Dan’s response, Yang Xiaoting turned her head back to the front, still half-doubtful.
No sooner had Xiaoting turned her head back than Jian Dan’s head collapsed onto the desk, and she fell into a drowsy sleep…
