Chapter 101: Even Walls Have Ears

Qin Yunhan didn’t feel quite satisfied with the duration of Wang Haoran’s stay, but it was already getting quite late.

“Let me call my driver.” Wang Haoran picked up his phone and dialled a fake number.

He put the phone to his ear and put it down again after a while.

“Is no one answering the phone?” Qin Yunhan asked upon seeing how Wang Haoran couldn’t seem to get through.

“Yeah, I don’t know what the driver is doing.” Wang Haoran said with a sigh.

“It’s quite late, and there are almost no taxis on the road outside the school. It seems that I’ll have to walk back on my own two legs.”

“Where do you live?” Qin Yunhan asked.

“At Lishui Villa.”

Lishui Villa was a wealthy area in Qingling City. It’s about a 20-minute drive from here, but walking would probably take until the wee hours of the morning.

“It’s too far to walk; how can you go walking?” Qin Yunhan was also worried about Wang Haoran.

“Well, I could stay here for the night and just sleep on the floor.” Wang Haoran felt that it was time.

“Ah? That’s…” Qin Yunhan hesitated.

“On second thought, that’s just an excuse for me to talk to you more. I’ve caused you enough worry, so I’ll just start walking back.” Wang Haoran walked to the door with a rather lonely face.

“Wait a minute.” 

Unable to bear it any longer, Qin Yunhan stopped Wang Haoran, “It’s not that I’m worried about being with you. It’s just that I was shocked. But you… you can stay here, for just one night…”

She was also afraid of the dark but with someone next to her, she wouldn’t be so afraid.

Moreover, it’s not like she wanted him to leave…

However, her restraint rendered her too embarrassed to just admit it outright.

“Take a seat, I…I’m going to take a shower.” With a red face, she got some clothes and went into the shower room.

With the summer heat, it’s difficult to avoid showering for even a day.

Thus, the neat and tidy Qin Yunhan wouldn’t be able to rest without first taking a bath.

When she temporarily disappeared from his sight, Wang Haoran couldn’t help but smile in secret.

‘Not heading back and offering to sleep on the floor is the first step of the plan.’

‘The following steps are:’

‘“It’s cold on the ground, let’s sleep on the bed instead. We’ll take a side each, similar to how the well water does not offend the river water.”’

‘“I can’t sleep; won’t you let me hold your hand? We’ll meet again in my dreams.”’

‘“I still can’t sleep; it’s better if I just hold you.”’

‘“I’ll just put my hand here; it won’t move.”’

‘“I’ll take a look, just a look!”’

‘“Just a rub, I swear! It’ll just be a rub.”’

‘It’ll all be water under the bridge after that.’

[Samael: Bro, what have you been reading? What am reading?]

[Kshn: At this point, even I don’t know.]

After all, routines were routines, and that’s precisely what this scenario was. Because of Qin Yunhan’s unswerving favorability rating, her own routine will inevitably hand over these things on its own.

Eventually, Wang Haoran grew bored of waiting and turned on his [X-Ray Vision] to take a look.

Originally, he wanted to check how much longer Qin Yunhan needed to wash up… before his eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of an eavesdropping Xiao Yifeng, his ear pressed against the wall in the teacher’s bedroom next door.

Wang Haoran was startled.

The room next door belonged to Song Zhenyu, but due to its small size and incomplete infrastructure, she just only occasionally uses it for a nap during noon.

She wasn’t here during the night.

‘Xiao Yifeng truly deserves to be the protagonist to just “somehow” eavesdrop in the perfect spot.’

When he saw him eavesdropping, Xiao Yifeng had an angry look on his face, his fingers practically digging into the wall.

‘He looks pissed.’

He came here with the intent of eavesdropping, and after hearing the way Qin Yunhan conversed with Wang Haoran, he must’ve been served some rather humble pie.

It would be strange if he wasn’t angry.

‘However, this guy’s in the way…’

Wang Haoran suddenly became a little troubled.

Zuoqiu Chenyu had yet to prepare the materials needed for Xiao Yifeng’s poison, so he naturally couldn’t use poison to deal with him.

If he fought head-on, he’d beat Xiao Yifeng, but he’d make too much noise.

That would render his efforts on Qin Yunhan in vain.

After thinking about it, Wang Haoran made a bet.

Xiao Yifeng was either following him or simply acting in Qin Yunhan’s interests.

Whichever one it is, he’s sure to act…

Wang Haoran couldn’t believe that this guy could possibly stand next door and eavesdrop for the whole night.

After a while, Qin Yunhan finally came out.

“I’ll go wash up too.” Wang Haoran smiled and walked into the shower room.

‘Whatever, I’ll shower first. The weather’s quite hot. With all the sweat I’ve accumulated, my body feels sticky. At this rate, it’ll be a challenge to fall asleep.’

‘I don’t have any clothes to change into, but that doesn’t matter. Just a shower will be good enough.’

When he entered the shower, rather than doing so immediately, he first monitored Xiao Yifeng’s actions with his [X-Ray Vision].

After sticking to the wall for a while, he suddenly pulled a towel to cover his face, before sneakily leaving the room. After confirming that no one was outside, he came to knock on Qin Yunhan’s door.

“Who is it?” Qin Yunhan asked.

“I’m Teacher Qi, can you please open the door? I’ve run out of tissues in my room, can I borrow some?” The voice of the reply sounded like it came from a middle-aged woman.

Wang Haoran clearly saw, through his [X-Ray Vision], that Xiao Yifeng was the speaker.

‘This bloody protagonist is quite good.’

‘I never knew he could pretend to be a woman.’

[On the other side]

Qin Yunhan didn’t know who this Teacher Qi was, but upon hearing the voice, she immediately judged that the other party was a woman.

She didn’t really harbour any suspicions, so she just took a pack of tissues, opened the door a little, and handed out the tissue with the intent of sending ‘Teacher Qi’ away.

After all, Qin Yunhan didn’t want to be seen together with Wang Haoran, lest there be some ‘unsavoury’ gossip.

However, even before she saw the other person, a hand came in directly from the crack of the door.

With a tap on her shoulder…

Qin Yunhan fell fast asleep, fainting softly on the ground.

Xiao Yifeng hurried into the room and closed the door.

‘What the hell is he planning on doing?’

Wang Haoran, who observed all of this from the shower, couldn’t help but be a little puzzled.

He continued to watch.

He saw Xiao Yifeng walking towards the shower room, taking out a silver needle from his body, before reaching out to knock on the door.

“Wang Haoran, can you open the door?” The voice was actually quite similar to Qin Yunhan’s.

‘Why must you insist on continuing this damned charade?’

But still, he could actually imitate Qin Yunhan’s voice!

Wang Haoran voiced his complaints in secret.

With his current combat strength, he could defeat Xiao Yifeng in a head-to-head battle, but it was extremely unlikely that he would kill him.

At best, they’d fight, leaving Xiao Yifeng seriously injured and running for his life.

However, Xiao Yifeng himself was proficient with medicine. He was more than capable of treating himself, so it wouldn’t make much sense to do so.

Moreover, Xiao Yifeng could not be dealt with in just one go. He needed to prepare.

Thus, Wang Haoran swiftly came to a decision.

“Wang Haoran, can you open the door? I’ve got a towel to wipe you with~”

[Samael: ┌(。Д。)┐ *vomits*]

From outside the door, Xiao Yifeng continued to imitate Qin Yunhan’s voice, all the while acting coquettishly.

Wang Haoran almost vomited on the spot.

‘This protagonist… can you be any more disgusting?’

‘It’s one thing to pretend to be a woman, it’s another to act like one!’
