Seeing that Yan Xiaoman agreed, Lin Xian smiled and said to the middle-aged man beside him, "Uncle, would you mind switching seats? My girlfriend isn't feeling very well."

Since they were classmates, and the bespectacled guy had been chattering away like an annoying fly, disturbing his newspaper reading, the middle-aged man didn't hesitate and nodded. "Sure!"

"Thank you so much," Lin Xian said gratefully.

"No problem."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and got up to switch seats.

Huang Jiacheng was dumbfounded. He stared at Lin Xian and cursed silently in his heart: Damn it, all the good girls get taken by pigs!

Sitting beside Lin Xian, Yan Xiaoman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The awkward conversation with the bespectacled guy just now had been extremely annoying.

But when she recalled how Lin Xian had called her his girlfriend, she felt both annoyed and amused. She couldn't resist secretly reaching out and giving his waist a hard pinch.

"Ouch!"

The sudden attack made Lin Xian suck in a cold breath.

Rubbing his waist, Lin Xian lowered his voice and said, "Repaying kindness with enmity, huh?"

"You're always bullying me! Not only do I owe you another favor, now I even have to pretend to be your girlfriend. You're getting all the benefits!" Yan Xiaoman ground her teeth, her little tiger teeth flashing, as if she might bite him at any moment.

"You were the one who asked for it!" Lin Xian raised an eyebrow, then continued, "So, when are you going to repay this favor? You can't just owe me forever, can you?"

Since they were speaking quietly, they had to lean in closer to each other.

As Lin Xian spoke, the warm breath he exhaled brushed against Yan Xiaoman's ear, tickling her and making her feel all tingly…

A faint blush started to rise from her neck, gradually spreading across her face.

Hurriedly lowering her head to hide it, she muttered, "Once we get to Modu City, I'll treat you to a meal. That should be enough, right?"

"That's too generous of you. How could I possibly let the campus belle spend money on me?" Lin Xian replied with a grin.

Although he didn't see the blush and shy expression on Yan Xiaoman's face just now, Huang Jiacheng, sitting across from them, saw everything clearly.

Yan Xiaoman was already incredibly pretty, and that fleeting moment of girlish shyness just now had him completely mesmerized.

But every time he looked at Lin Xian, Huang Jiacheng's heart ached.

So frustrating!

Why do all the goddesses already have boyfriends?

...

After a bit of teasing, Lin Xian pulled out his phone and started browsing various top-tier watch brands.

He hadn't known much about watches before, but as he browsed, he was amazed at how much there was to learn.

From movements to straps, from materials to functions, there was a whole world of knowledge behind each watch.

Without realizing it, he had become fully absorbed.

Noticing that Lin Xian had stopped talking, Yan Xiaoman turned her head and sneaked a peek.

She saw him slightly lowering his head, focused on his phone, his calm demeanor giving off a soothing aura. The sunlight streaming through the window made his smooth, fair profile look almost dreamlike.

Yan Xiaoman quietly mumbled to herself, "How can a guy have such good skin?"

"And his side profile is really handsome."

"Will he suddenly confess his feelings to me? If he does, should I reject him?"

"If I reject him, Lin Xian might get really sad."

"But I already promised my parents I wouldn't date during college. What should I do?"

"Maybe... wait until after graduation to date him?"

As she gazed at Lin Xian, Yan Xiaoman fell into deep thought...

...

Two hours passed in a flash.

When the train arrived, Lin Xian put away his phone, slung his shoulder bag over one arm, and prepared to get off.

Yan Xiaoman suddenly grabbed him, looking at him in disbelief. "You're just going to leave like that?"

Lin Xian raised an eyebrow. "You want me to sleep on the train tonight or what?"

"I was going to treat you to a meal, and you won't even help me with my luggage!" Yan Xiaoman stared at him, cheeks puffed out in frustration.

Lin Xian sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, where's your luggage?"

"Right up there."

Yan Xiaoman pointed to the overhead luggage rack, where two massive suitcases were sitting.

Lin Xian's face immediately turned into a classic "are you kidding me" expression.

Those two suitcases must weigh at least 60 kilograms.

Maybe even 80!

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xian turned and walked away. "Sorry to bother you, goodbye!"

Seeing him about to leave, Yan Xiaoman quickly pulled him back, panicking. "Don't go! What am I supposed to do if you leave?"

Lin Xian pointed at the suitcases and asked seriously, "First tell me, how did you even get those up there?"

"My dad brought me to the station, and once I got on the train, a crew member helped me put them up," Yan Xiaoman explained honestly.

"How long are you planning to stay in Modu City?" Lin Xian asked.

"A week."

Lin Xian was stunned. "Damn, you're only staying a week and you brought this much stuff? When school starts, are you planning to move your entire house to campus?"

"Lin Xian!"

Yan Xiaoman was furious at his teasing. "If you keep bullying me, I... I'll bite you to death!"

Honestly, when someone's that good-looking, they can get away with anything—even being angry is adorable.

Knowing when to stop, Lin Xian didn't tease her any further.

He handed her his shoulder bag and let her carry it, then grabbed one of the heavy suitcases and carefully pulled it down.

Even though both suitcases had wheels, dragging 80+ kilograms was still exhausting.

By the time they got to the station exit, Lin Xian was drenched in sweat.

Catching his breath, he asked, "So where are you headed next?"

"My cousin said she's coming to pick me up. Hold on, I'll call her!"

As she spoke, Yan Xiaoman pulled out her phone and dialed a number.

After chatting briefly, she put the phone down and said, "She's on her way. Just wait a bit."

Not long after, a tall, stylish young woman came walking over.

"Cousin, over here!"

Yan Xiaoman waved.

Lin Xian took a quick look at the woman. She looked to be around 23 or 24, about 165cm tall. Not as stunning as Yan Xiaoman, but still an easy 85 out of 100 in terms of looks. Wearing a Chanel outfit, she clearly came from a well-off family.

Yan Xiaoman seemed to be on very good terms with her cousin. She ran up and gave her a big hug.

The sight of two beautiful women hugging instantly caught the attention of many men around them.

After they let go, Yan Xiaoman's cousin noticed Lin Xian and couldn't help but ask, "And who's this?"

"He's Lin Xian, my classmate. He's here in Modu City for a little vacation," Yan Xiaoman answered, her face turning slightly red. She still thought Lin Xian had followed her to Modu City to pursue her, so she felt a bit embarrassed in front of her cousin.

"Oh, a classmate! Hi, I'm Wang Lan." Wang Lan looked at Lin Xian with a meaningful smile.

She had caught all of her cousin's little expressions just now and suddenly had a hunch.

Could her little cousin be in a relationship?

Wang Lan kept her smile and casually asked, "So Lin Xian, how many days are you planning to stay in Modu City?"

"Three or four, probably," Lin Xian replied, then turned to Yan Xiaoman and said, "Well, now that your cousin's here, I should get going."

Yan Xiaoman grabbed his arm and said, "Don't go yet! I said I'd treat you to a meal—otherwise you'll just keep teasing me about it."

Seeing the way, they acted so close, Wang Lan was now almost certain her cousin was dating someone.

She figured she'd better keep an eye out and make sure her cousin didn't get tricked.

Thinking that, Wang Lan chimed in, "Yeah, let's all have a meal together!"

"Alright then!"

Lin Xian nodded. After all, if someone else was paying, why not enjoy the free meal?
