After seeing off the bearded man, Xu Lin was left dumbfounded. Chu Qingchans desire to find a professional music studio seed to be more than just her own interest in singing.

Uncle, Aunt, Id like to discuss sothing with you.

Go ahead.

Well, I think Xu Lin has great musical talents. While studying is important, I dont want to waste his talent. Im thinking of finding a professional teacher to guide him.

Qingchan, youre not joking with us, right?

This child, Xu Lin, apart from liking ani and playing gas since childhood, I havent seen him interested in listening to music, let alone singing. The guitar his uncle doesnt use anymore was given to him to play.

But that day at Grandmas house, he sang an original song. I think his voice is naturally suited for this, but it needs polishing. His creative ability is also quite strong.

At noon, in his room, I also saw so other lyrics he wrote. I feel theyre all excellent. So, I want to find a professional teacher to teach him a bit.

If singing doesnt work out, we wont waste his creative talent. Learning so professional music knowledge would be a valuable skill.

Well, Qingchans idea is good. We did suggest he learn drawing before, but it was just that.

But Miss Chu, as a person from the entertainnt industry, thinks this kid has potential. Naturally, we wont refuse.

Compared to Mother Xu, Father Xu is more open-minded. Even though he always believed in the importance of academics, learning isnt rigid.

What does Aunt think?

Im afraid it will affect his studies. After all, hes already in his second year of high school, and the college entrance exam is just a year away.

If it hinders his studies, then of course, Im not saying your idea is wrong, Qingchan. Youre doing it for Xu Lins good after all.

Well, but I think Mr. Xu can balance both studying and music.

Wait a minute, have you asked for my opinion? I never said I wanted to learn music. Xu Lin directly used his sudden interruption skill.

You really dont want to learn music?

Chu Qingchan noticed Xu Lins reluctance, and her emotions stabilized. If he truly didnt want to do it, she couldnt just force him.

Its too troubleso. The school basically has no weekends or holidays, and I cant keep taking leave.

If I take too much leave and miss classes, itll be challenging to catch up. Plus, I havent transferred to an arts class, and I dont have plans for the arts exam.

Xu Lin wasnt entirely averse to singing and making music. In his previous life, after entering university, he even posted singing videos on Bilibili.

But in this life, he just wanted to settle down lazily and do so things he had missed in the past. If he entered a school for both academic and extracurricular studies, he might not have ti for other things.

Youre not wrong in your thinking. Well then, lets postpone the visit to Ms. Guan!

Lets finish shooting that short film first. If we can get so good reviews, it will make things easier with your school.

Chu Qingchan thought for a mont and presented a solution. Xu Lin nodded, saying to Chu Qingchan, But you better visit her soon.

Why?

If you dont establish a good relationship early, lay the groundwork. Do you think soone of her calibre would casually help us?

I almost forgot the most important point. Then Ill soon give her a visit.

Before anything else, chat with her first. If shes not receptive, dont push too hard. Take it slowly.

I dont need you to teach that; I know.

And mainly, you want to sing, right?

No, not at all. Chu Qingchan imdiately waved her hand.

Hmm, but your side is more important than mine. Go check the situation first.

The Xu family couple, watching their sons mature deanour, unconsciously held hands and exchanged a glance. Their son had grown up, and now he could handle so things on his own. As parents, they could feel more at ease.

Afterward, the family of four had a simple dinner and prepared to rest. Xu Lin needed to wake up at 6 a.m. for school the next morning.

Their house has three bedrooms and two living rooms. But the smallest bedroom has been turned into a wardrobe; they only have two bedrooms, and one of them has a single bed.

In the end, Xu Lin, as the only man, could only be relegated to the living room sofa, while Chu Qingchan, as the guest, slept in his bedroom.

Hey, am I truly your biological child? Even if I were adopted, I wouldnt have to sleep on the sofa.

Xu Lin quipped, leaning on the sofa, reviewing his slightly lower grades in English and geography. However, after studying for half an hour, he beca increasingly sleepy.

Glancing at his phone, it was already 10 p.m. He quickly put down his books, laid down, and, after a drowsy dozen seconds, fell into a deep sleep.

But after an unknown amount of ti, in a half-awake state, Xu Lin felt a bit cold. He squinted, feeling a bit short of breath, and his throat was slightly sore.

Cough! Cough! Water

He wanted to get up to drink water but felt incredibly heavy. Rolling over, he thudded onto the floor.

Enduring the pain, he checked his phone at 3:30 a.m. Feeling cold but sweating profusely, it seed he caught a fever from being caught in the rain.

It wasnt surprising; his constitution value was only 3, and even if it had been improved at that ti, it wouldnt be enough to prevent getting sick from being in the rain.

He climbed up from the floor, poured a cup of hot water, and sipped it. Then, he walked towards his bedroom because the living room didnt have any fever-reducing dicine; it was in the bedroom.

But when he reached the bedroom, he found the door locked from the inside. He sighed and planned to ask his parents for so fever-reducing dicine; after all, he still had to go to school tomorrow.

However, the next second, everything went black. He pressed forward and thudded against the door with a muffled sound.

Huh Cough.

With another cough, he quickly lowered his voice, afraid of disturbing Chu Qingchans rest. She had been tired enough today.

But the next mont, the tightly closed door opened, and a beautiful face appeared. Seeing him leaning against the door, Chu Qingchan instantly approached, supporting him.

Why didnt you call ?

I didnt want to disturb your rest.

Fool. She glared at him, but her tone softened.

Dont get too close; I might infect you. Ill just go in and get so fever-reducing dicine. I dont wish to disturb your rest.

Is sothing wrong? Are you running a fever?

Chu Qingchans beautiful eyes lowered slightly. Compared to her usual seriousness and coldness, she appeared surprisingly gentle at this mont, and Xu Lin, who had been sowhat dispirited, suddenly recovered a bit.

Yeah, I just need to take so dicine.

I told you to share the umbrella back then; now youve caught a cold, right?

The umbrella was too small; we both would have gotten wet.

You said youre a bad person, but which bad person catches a cold from light rain? Doesnt it say bad people live the longest? Co in.

She quickly let him in, helped him sit on the bed, and then asked, Wheres the thermoter and the dicine?

In the bottom drawer.

She imdiately bent down, searching for the thermoter. In her short sleepwear, the roundness of her ass was directly presented to him, and his cough intensified for a mont.

But he quickly turned his head away. She cared for him like this, and it would be disrespectful to look at her like that.

Found it. asure your temperature first. Based on the temperature, well decide on the fever-reducing dicine. Otherwise, taking a large dose at once isnt the right way.

Alright.

Ill get you so water.

She hurried out and returned quickly, bringing warm water for him.

A few minutes later, the temperature asurent result showed a conspicuous 39.7C.

Take this dicine.

After taking the fever-reducing dicine, Xu Lin leaned against the wall, squinting his eyes. A wave of drowsiness hit him, but he imdiately opened his eyes.

Ill go back to sleep.

Dont go out; sleep here.

But if you sleep on the sofa, my mom will surely scold .

Ill stay here too.

Oh, thank you for the stars blessings.

Look at you being all slick; it ans the fever isnt that bad! Sleep; Ill turn on the air conditioning. You sleep on the right side, and Ill stay on the left side of the bed.

Xu Lin nodded. In his mind, he began to imagine if he would wake up tomorrow morning and there would be a scene from a novel where he and the other party were embracing.

But as he turned his head, he saw that she had put on a coat and long pants over her sleepwear. In an instant, he closed his eyes, losing any chance for a blessing.

Then he muttered, Thank you, Miss Chu, and due to physical discomfort, he fell into sleep within a dozen seconds.

Watching him fall asleep so quickly, Chu Qingchan also climbed onto the bed. She found that Xu Lin intentionally wrapped himself in the blanket, leaning against the corner of the wall.

She imdiately understood. He was afraid of moving around at night, afraid of accidentally touching her. She couldnt help but think that this boy might be a bit naive and not want to take advantage of the situation.

She lay down too, looking at Xu Lins handso profile. Extending a finger, she lightly poked him.

No need to thank , silly Mr. Xu. Good night.

Her lips curved slightly, revealing a smile from the bottom of her heart. After laughing, she paused, realising, Lately, I dont seem to be that poker-faced anymore.
