C42 (1/2)

When Du Yuqi got off the car, a cold wind blew past her and she immediately became much more clear-headed. She quietly led Qin Yichen to the door, opened the door, and entered the room saying, ”After my mom is well, she'll stay on the third floor. My room and the guest room at home are both on the second floor, follow me up.”

Qin Yi Chen nodded and followed Du Yuqi up the stairs.

Then, Du Yuqi opened the door of a bedroom on the second floor and said to Qin Yichen, ”You can sleep in this room tonight, I'll be right next door. Do you want to change? ”If you need me, I'll go upstairs to the cloakroom and find my dad's clothes for you. You two look pretty alike.”

Qin Yichen waved his hand and said, ”No need. I only changed this set of clothes when I was out at night.”

Du Yuqi nodded and brought Qin Yi Chen into the guest room.

Even though it was a guest room, it was much bigger than an average bedroom. It was basically a luxurious renovated master bedroom with a separate bathroom.

Du Yuqi pushed open the bathroom door and said to Qin Yichen, ”There's a new bathrobe and pajamas in the bathroom cabinet. You can put them on after you shower, and you'll also have new toiletries in there.”

”Alright.” Qin Yichen nodded with a smile and said, ”After drinking so much tonight, you should get some rest as well.”

Du Yuqi smiled and said, ”Alright then, go rest. I'll be going back to my room.”

As she spoke, Du Yuqi asked, ”What time do you usually have classes?”

Qin Yichen said, ”Nine o'clock.”

”Sure.” Du Yuqi said, ”I'll send you back tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock.”

”No need.” Qin Yichen said, ”You just need to have a good rest. I'll go back by myself when I get up tomorrow.”

Du Yuqi insisted, ”I'll set a seven-thirty alarm.”

Seeing that Du Yuqi had returned to her room, Qin Yi Chen closed the door and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Then he sat down on the bed and meditated.

The plan that he had drawn up for himself was to break through to the 3rd level of the Refinement Stage as soon as possible next week.

If the marathon on Saturday was successful and he was able to obtain the prize money, he would be able to buy more spirit stones. That amount of money should be enough to set up two Spirit Convergence Arrays and after two tries, he would be able to break through.

Qin Yichen cultivated for an entire night. When he opened his eyes at seven the next day, he felt full of energy.

After a simple wash, Qin Yichen was ready to quietly leave so that he wouldn't have to trouble Du Yuqi to send him off again. When he walked out of his room, Du Yuqi still hadn't woken up. Qin Yichen tiptoed downstairs and was hit by Du Yuqi's mother, Chen Langping, the moment he reached the first floor.

Ever since she recovered from her previous illness, Chen Lanping had been determined to change her previous lifestyle. Therefore, she had recently been sleeping early and getting up early. Every morning, she would get up at around 5 am to exercise, and then prepare breakfast.

At this moment, when Chen Lanping had just finished preparing breakfast for herself and her daughter, she suddenly saw a man walk down the stairs. She was startled.

Upon a closer look, he recognized that this man was Qin Yichen, who had saved his life. For a moment, he was speechless.

Qin Yichen was also somewhat embarrassed. He had spent the night at a girl's house. The next day, when he got up and was about to leave, he was met by the other party's mother. He was truly at a loss for words.

Chen Lanping was shocked and astonished at the same time. She subconsciously felt that Qin Yi Chen staying at home must have something to do with her daughter.

If this had happened in the past, the traditional Chen Lanping would have been furious. However, ever since she recovered from her illness and divorced her husband, she had started to see things very clearly about her daughter.

At this time, the awkward Qin Yichen was the first to break the silence. He politely said, ”Good morning, Auntie.”

Chen Lanping reacted and nodded with a smile, saying, ”Good morning, Mr. Qin. I just happened to have made breakfast. Let's eat together before we leave.”

Qin Yichen refused and said, ”No need Auntie, thank you. But I need to hurry back to school and attend class.”

After saying this, Qin Yi Chen didn't care about Chen Lanping's persuasion and hastily left Du Yuqi's house.

After Qin Yi Chen left, Chen Lan Ping recalled what happened just now and helplessly shook her head. She muttered to herself, ”This child, even after having a boyfriend, he still didn't inform me.”

When Du Yuqi was woken up by the alarm clock at 7: 30, the first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to quickly wash up. After washing up, she went to the guest room where Qin Yichen was, only to find that there was no trace of him in the room.

Du Yuqi quickly went downstairs and found her mother sitting alone at the dining table. Without any hesitation, she asked, ”Mom, where's Qin Yichen?”

”Let's go.” Chen Lanping replied indifferently. When she saw her daughter's anxious face, she was even more surprised. What was going on? You didn't know that Qin Yi Chen had left?

Du Yuqi quickly asked, ”When did he leave?”
