But she hadn't heard a sound just earlier!
Wu Lingyu was determined, so she unfolded the folded quilt to shake it out and grabbed the pillow to fluff it, but still didn't hear that crisp sound.
Finally, she even started searching on the floor underneath the bed.
However, the keys were seemingly invisible, without a trace to be found.
There was no ti left!
Wu Lingyu slumped onto the edge of the bed, beginning to feel a mix of embarrassnt and anger.
It wasn't even her fault to begin with; just because she knew too much, she deserved to take the bla?
It's like when a colleague in the sa team screws up their work. To avoid being implicated, you have no choice but to help them sort out the ss.
And this ti, Xu Qingfan's case was even worse in nature!
[How could this be? Why do I have to clean up this ss?]
Yu really felt wronged. He wouldn't call her when things were smooth, but now that trouble's afoot, she had to co help handle it (note: and she would willingly do it).
Wu Lingyu was really annoyed with Xu Qingfan for the first ti. If such a thing happened again, she decided she wouldn't help at all—let them all face the consequences together!
[If there's a next ti, I'm really not dealing with you anymore, Brother Chou Fan!]
Wu Lingyu slapped the mattress a few tis in frustration, then quickly adjusted her mood and left the room.
She first put on her slippers in front of Zhang Yiyi's room, then headed straight to the bathroom where Xia Xiaoxiao was.
"Xiao Xiao, are you in there?" Great, she had just made another pointless remark.
"Mm, Yu, are they up yet?" Xia Xiaoxiao was sitting on the toilet scrolling through her phone, brushing her teeth with her right hand.
"Not yet. Should I wake them up now?" Wu Lingyu looked back; no one had co out of their rooms.
"Sure, it's almost ten o'clock." Xia Xiaoxiao spoke with her toothbrush in her mouth, reaching for a tissue.
"Then Xiao Xiao, rember to eat breakfast after you brush your teeth. The egg pancakes won't be delicious if they cool down!" Wu Lingyu left this brief ssage and quickly turned away.
Xia Xiaoxiao: ???
"I rember Yu just ntioned dried vegetable pancakes, right?" Her action of wiping paused for a mont and she shook her head, quickly resuming the following steps.
Wu Lingyu ran first to Xiao Ruawen's room. The young lady had probably woken up once already and was just habitually seeking more sleep.
"Yu~" Xiao Ruawen yawned and, after recognizing who it was, closed her eyes again.
"Ruan Wen, get up. There's porridge and egg pancakes. Auntie also bought a lot of dishes, including your favorite sweet and sour ribs. If you're late for breakfast, you won't have room for lunch." Wu Lingyu first drew back the curtains, then turned off the air conditioner. Even if Xiao Ruawen wanted to sleep more, it was ti to wake up.
Moreover, the allure of good food was strong!
"Ha~ What's the ti? Is everyone up yet?" She got up and stretched lazily; as sunlight poured in, her curves seed to shine.
"It's almost ten o'clock. Xiao Xiao is already brushing her teeth; I'm going to wake Wanning up now." Wu Lingyu suddenly felt like she could relate to Xu Qingfan. With such a Ruan Wen, she'd like her if she were a guy, too!
"Ha, I'm not the last to get up." Surprise flickered across Xiao Ruawen's face. After all, she had lost sleep for a long ti last night because of that incident.
"Maybe it's because it's everyone's first ti sleeping over at Brother Fan's place." Wu Lingyu gave a nonsense reason, not giving Xiao Ruawen ti to be confused, for she had already turned around to leave.
Just next door was Lin Wanning's room. Entering, the girl was still asleep on the bed.
Covered up to her navel with her arms and legs exposed, her sprawling sleeping position was incredibly endearing.
Wu Lingyu followed the sa thod, drawing the curtains and turning off the AC, letting the dazzling sunlight quickly fill the room.
"Brother Qing Fan, don't lock the door next ti..."
"Wanning?" Hearing the voice, Wu Lingyu thought she had woken up but soon realized she was talking in her sleep.
Wu Lingyu pursed her lips in a slight smile because the words were a bit blurry; she had only heard the four words "Brother Qing Fan."
"Wanning, get up! The sun's gonna shine on your butt." She shook the girl's arm, promptly waking her up gently.
"Is it... Yu?" Lin Wanning opened her eyes groggily, and the outline of the person in front of her gradually beca clearer until she saw it was indeed Wu Lingyu.
"Auntie made you breakfast specially; hurry and go brush your teeth and eat!" Wu Lingyu helped her up from the bed and advised.
"Wow~ What kind of breakfast is it?" Lin Wanning's drowsy eyes disappeared at the news, instantly turning back into the energetic young girl she was.
"There's fried dough sticks, egg pancakes, and dried vegetable porridge. Hurry up and get up; everyone's awake." Wu Lingyu said.
"Mm, okay!"
"Is Brother Qing Fan up too?"
"Why didn't you call Wanning, duck?"
Lin Wanning nodded frantically while changing her clothes and talking.
Wu Lingyu thought it was over, [If I can't fool Wanning, I'm definitely going to give myself away!]
"Brother Fan and Yiyi haven't gotten up yet, they went to the market with Auntie this morning, and then they were prepping ingredients until very late, so they're still sleeping in now," Wu Lingyu said, convincing even herself.
Sure enough, you never know how good at lying you are until you push yourself!
"Ah!"
"Why didn't Brother Qingfan and Yiyi wake up? I wanted to go to the market with Auntie too!" Lin Wanning felt like she missed out on a billion-dollar deal by sleeping in and missing out on such an important event.
"Maybe Wanning was still asleep at that ti, Brother Fan and the others got up at six, super early," Wu Lingyu continued to make up stuff, anyway, Auntie was still sleeping, so this lie couldn't be exposed.
"Alrighty~ Yu, I've changed my clothes, let's go brush our teeth and have breakfast!" Lin Wanning's hair quivered as she took Yu's hand.
"Mhmm." Wu Lingyu followed her out.
[Wanning is so easy to deceive, no wonder Brother Fan likes her, who wouldn't love soone so innocently foolish!]
Wu Lingyu suddenly felt like she was standing in for Xu Qingfan.
When the two reached the bathroom, Xia Xiaoxiao had already finished washing up and was chatting idly with Xiao Ruawen at the door.
"Haven't Zhang Yiyi and Xu Qingfan woken up yet?" Seeing only the two of them, Xia Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.
Wu Lingyu was all prepared to repeat the lie, but Lin Wanning beat her to it: "Brother Qingfan and Yiyi went to the market with Auntie early this morning, super early, and they're still catching up on sleep now!"
Xia Xiaoxiao was taken aback and looked up at Wu Lingyu.
"Yeah, yeah, when I woke up after seven, they were still busy in the kitchen!" Wu Lingyu nodded vigorously.
Hearing that Zhang Yiyi hadn't gotten up yet, Xiao Ruawen, who was frozen in place, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
[Thank goodness, I was afraid Yiyi would co over and ask why I was in Brother Fan's room last night.]
...
After washing up, the four of them headed to the kitchen on the first floor.
"Wow!"
"There's so much delicious food!"
Seeing all sorts of seasoned ats on the counter, Xiao Ruawen instantly craved them.
"Yu, is this a pumpkin seedling, it even has flowers!" Lin Wanning leaned in to sniff a large yellow trumpet flower.
Xia Xiaoxiao, looking at the table full of ingredients, could already imagine the morning scene of Auntie, Stinky Dog, and Yiyi being busy.
[Next ti I'll also get up early, I should be doing this kind of thing!]
[Auntie must think I'm more diligent too!]
"Eh?"
"Why is there so much congee?"
When serving the congee, Xia Xiaoxiao noticed sothing odd—it was almost full!
"Ah... the congee... was cooked later, Brother Fan and Yiyi ate sothing else and didn't have any congee," Wu Lingyu lied again to cover up.
Before she knew it, Yu had beco a bad kid who tells lies without hesitation.
"Doesn't Brother Fan love dried vegetable congee the most? It's strange he ate sothing else." When it was Xiao Ruawen's turn to serve the congee, she casually ntioned it.
Wu Lingyu was shocked!
"Maybe they were too hungry when they got up, Brother Qingfan and Yiyi must have eaten breakfast outside," Lin Wanning helped to explain.
Wu Lingyu: Ah yes, exactly!
In order not to stand out, Wu Lingyu served herself half a bowl of congee even though she wasn't hungry.
The four of them chatted and laughed together as they returned to the living room, where the TV was set to "SpongeBob SquarePants" by Yu in advance, described in just two words: Goes well with als!
"Eh~ by the way, why did Yiyi get up so early today, duck? She stayed up chatting with until after one last night!" Lin Wanning glanced at the wall clock and suddenly said.
Wu Lingyu: !!!
Wu Lingyu suddenly realized that she might not be able to explain to Zhang Yiyi why she had to cover for her.
[I'm done for, it's like I blew my own cover!]
