Chapter 268: I just don't believe Teacher Su can ruin me again!
Zhang Zhiheng seemed to know that Xu Lingjun was definitely exhausted after his long journey.
He just inquired briefly about his life at the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion and didn't chat for long before signaling Wang Qingya to take Xu Lingjun back to rest early.
Wang Qingya nodded.
She bid farewell to Zhang Zhiheng and Zhong Yuebai.
She then took Xu Lingjun directly back to her dormitory.
Wang Qingya is considered a senior student at the Zhanzheng Academy, and with her hypotheses on mecha and proportionate combat robots, she had earned a lot of academic credits.
To know, the method of earning academic credits at the Zhanzheng Academy is quite different from that of the Martial Mansion.
Every time a new weapon idea is researched and feasible evidence is provided, academic credits can be earned, and as progress is made in each phase... the rewards of academic credits increase geometrically.
You must know, Wang Qingya didn't just provide feasible evidence; she directly developed a mecha, and even used it on the battlefield to save a city.
Since then, Wang Qingya has never lacked academic credits.
And the double dorm she used to stay in was upgraded to a top-standard single dorm, although it was smaller than Xu Lingjun's by quite a bit, since the space in the Imperial Capital is limited compared to the vastness of the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion.
But the design was more reasonable.
And more humanized.
An estimated eighty to ninety square meter room.
With a reasonable layout, it was tidied up quite neatly, with an overall white and blue tint, filled with a girlish charm.
Anyone who sees it can guess that this room must be inhabited by an extremely elegant girl.
"Your room is ready."
Upon entering the room.
Wang Qingya took over the big backpack from Xu Lingjun's back. Just as she was about to open it, Daxiong suddenly leaped out from it, a white shadow flashed by, startling Wang Qingya.
She widened her eyes in shock, looking at Daxiong who was crouching on the chair, surveying its new territory, and asked, "This is..."
"A cat I raise."
Xu Lingjun didn't explain much, just reached out to hold her hand that was about to tidy his clothes.
Burying his face into her neck, he took a deep breath and sighed, "Sister Yaya, I missed you so much."
Wang Qingya paused, not rejecting Xu Lingjun's closeness, instead, she gently stroked Xu Lingjun's head, surprisingly realizing that in just a few months... touching him now required her to raise her hand.
She exclaimed with surprise, "Xiaojun, you've grown taller."
"Because I've grown up."
Xu Lingjun turned his head and gently kissed her on the neck.
He asked, "Sister Yaya, is this a single dormitory too?"
Wang Qingya understood the implication behind Xu Lingjun's question; she lightly stroked his hair and replied a bit shyly, "Yes... but..."
Just after she said yes.
Her foot suddenly twisted, she exclaimed in surprise, and was already picked up sideways by Xu Lingjun.
Looking at Wang Qingya in his arms, a sudden surge of emotion rose in Xu Lingjun's heart.
This was Wang Qingya, his Sister Yaya.
Who had cared for him since he was young, a person who cared for him deeply.
Previously, it always felt like Sister Yaya knew everything, no matter the issue, she could offer him pertinent advice.
She was like a guideline on his path, giving him a reference as he moved forward.
Yet when he held her in his arms.
He realized that unknowingly, that woman who once stood by his side was now so petite, feeling like she could be easily held and controlled.
This was his Sister Yaya.
Just the name alone made his heart burn with warmth.
Xu Lingjun asked, "Sister Yaya, where's your bedroom?"
"Xiaojun... actually..."
"Never mind, I'll find it myself."
Holding Wang Qingya, Xu Lingjun went into the largest bedroom.
Wang Qingya showed a slightly helpless expression, as if she was back in the days when Xu Lingjun secretly ate candies, where she didn't want him to eat them but couldn't stop him, only able to let him eat to his delight, while she worriedly watched from the side, fearing he might get a stomachache.
She felt her shoes and socks being removed.
Wang Qingya said helplessly, "Xiaojun..."
Xu Lingjun leaned down and gently kissed Wang Qingya's lips.
Strictly speaking, it was their first kiss... well... Xu Lingjun's first kiss in this lifetime.
He asked, "Sister Yaya, didn't you miss me?"
"I did, but..."
Wang Qingya turned her head slightly embarrassed, a hint of an odd expression on her face.
"How is it? I don't believe that Teacher Su could possibly show up here to interrupt us, right?"
Xu Lingjun chuckled softly, his hand already moving upwards before he discreetly marveled, just now, he was indeed too arrogant.
Thinking Sister Yaya was someone he could control, he truly didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
After fiddling around a bit, he suddenly sensed something and looked up.
Sawing Su Huanqing just turning around, seeming to decide to sneak away unnoticed.
Noticing Xu Lingjun's gaze, she timidly said, "Uh... sorry, I... I was just planning to leave, really sorry for bothering you."
He looked up at her, then lowered his gaze to Wang Qingya.
By now, his shirt was half-open, and Wang Qingya was in an even more embarrassing state, having no defense whatsoever against Xu Lingjun, only able to helplessly yet fondly cooperate with him.
For now, half-exposed and half-covered.
Xu Lingjun: "..............."
"Ahem ahem ahem..."
He suddenly coughed vigorously, saying, "Teacher Su, you've misunderstood. My taking off clothes isn't what you're thinking. In fact, I was asking Sister Yaya to help me fix something... um, my nanometer armor; it can't be opened without taking off clothes."
Saying so, he smoothly took down the nano pendant hanging from his chest and put it into Wang Qingya's hand, saying, "Here, Sister Yaya, check if this nanometer armor can be repaired?"
After speaking, he got up from the bed and naturally put on his clothes.
Wang Qingya was a bit embarrassed initially, as being bullied by her fiancé in front of her best friend was indeed quite embarrassing, but seeing Xu Lingjun's feigned innocence and Su Huanqing's shy and slightly awkward look, eager to find a hole in the ground to hide.
If I'm not embarrassed, then the embarrassment naturally falls on others.
She couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Laughing, she sat up and buttoned up her shirt, saying, "It's all your fault. I was just about to say Xiaoqing would be back soon; she doesn't have any afternoon classes today, but you didn't give me a chance to say it."
Xu Lingjun righteously said, "Nonsense. So what if Teacher Su were here? We have a clear conscience. What's there to be afraid of people seeing?"
Then he turned his gaze toward Su Huanqing, asking, "By the way, Teacher Su, how come you're here?"
"Well... well, I got transferred here, my dorm isn't ready yet, so... I'm temporarily staying in Xiaoya's dorm, um, I'm so sleepy now, I have to hurry and go to sleep."
Su Huanqing said so and turned to run, sprinting into the smaller room.
With a bang, she closed the door.
No doubt, pretending to be an ostrich.
Xu Lingjun: "............"
He looked somewhat resentfully at Wang Qingya.
Wang Qingya, holding the necklace, wrapped her arms around Xu Lingjun's neck, raised herself to kiss him proactively, and said with a smile, "Alright, no need to feel embarrassed. Xiaoqing has known me for many years, she's not an outsider."
Xu Lingjun's expression was still somewhat peculiar.
Not because he was angry; in reality... seeing Su Huanqing reminded him of what she'd left under his dorm pillow back then.
And then it felt very odd.
"Get up, you must be starving. I'll take you to eat the best local food in the Imperial Capital."
Seeing Xu Lingjun's somewhat speechless look, Wang Qingya's expression softened with indulgent exasperation, and she lowered her voice to whisper, "Xiaoqing has three full classes tomorrow afternoon, you know, so she isn't an outsider."
Xu Lingjun's face was still a bit odd.
Not that he was angry at her; instead, thinking back to how Su Huanqing left a while ago made him feel strange.
"Come on, you're starving too, right? I'll take you to eat at the Imperial Capital," she whispered softly.
Xu Lingjun's face lit up, "You said it."
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Wang Qingya glared playfully at Xu Lingjun and said, "I never have, have I?"
