The Long-awaited Mr Han

“Sure. I will be waiting here,” said the driver.

Han Zhuofeng then walked with Xie Jiling inside.

They arrived at the school at 8:45 PM, so it was still early.

The weather this season was cold rather than cold.

Many couples could be seen together on campus.

Xie Jiling and Han Zhuofeng stepped into the campus and saw young couples everywhere.

Han Zhuofeng let out a sigh of relief as he said, “Thank goodness I sent you back.”

“Why?” Xie Jiling was confused.

Han Zhuofeng didn’t answer right away. He held Xie Jiling’s hand before saying, “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have the chance to walk around here with you.”

“We’re just like these classmates.” Han Zhuofeng lowered his head as he stared at Xie Jiling and said, “I can hold your hand and walk around on campus as well.”

Xie Jiling thought about it and agreed that it felt good.

She wouldn’t have to be jealous if she saw so many couples while she was walking here.

After all, her boyfriend was with her.

After walking for a while, Xie Jiling suddenly realized an issue. “If you walked me back to my dormitory building, will you be fine walking by yourself? It’s already dark.”

When Han Zhuofeng heard that, he realized something wrong.

He felt that things weren’t as simple as what Xie Jiling had said.

After a few seconds, Han Zhuofeng finally had a moment of enlightenment. He immediately said, “Although I’m scared of vengeful ghosts, I’m not scared of the dark.”

Han Zhuofeng paused immediately after finishing the sentence. He asked with uncertainty, “There isn’t anything… weird on your campus, right?” ”

“No…” Xie Jiling shook her head.

Of course, a vengeful ghost could still invade this region.

However, Xie Jiling decided not to scare Han Zhuofeng.

He had the protective jade with him, so he wouldn’t have to be scared if he encountered anything.

Han Zhuofeng walked Xie Jiling to the ground floor of the dormitory building.

He couldn’t go inside the girl’s dormitory building.

“I’m going back. Go back to the hotel. I know you’re happy tonight, but you should avoid drinking too much.” Xie Jiling instructed.

“Alright,” Han Zhuofeng said, If I’m still awake by the time we’re done, I’ll send you a WeChat message. I won’t be able to message you if I get too drunk anyway.”

Considering the members of the production crew, Xie Jiling had a feeling that her instruction for Han Zhuofeng to drink less would be useless.

“By the way, where are you going to stay today?” Xie Jiling asked.

“I’m going back to the house my brother gave me.” Han Zhuofeng said, “I’m worried that I will disturb my grandparents if I go home too late.”

Han Zhuofeng suddenly thought of something and asked, “Are you thinking about visiting me?”

“I don’t have anything to do tomorrow, so I can come to visit you.” Xie Jiling didn’t think much.

She had no idea what it meant to go to her boyfriend’s house by herself.

However, Han Zhuofeng wouldn’t really do anything to her.

However, it didn’t stop him from imagining things out of boredom.

“Alright.” Han Zhuofeng thought about it and said, “Pass me your phone.”

Xie Jiling gave him her phone and saw Han Zhuofeng write down six numbers on her phone’s notepad.

“This is the password. If I’m still asleep tomorrow, you can just head inside.” Han Zhuofeng said, “I will register your fingerprint tomorrow. This way, you can just scan your fingerprint when you visit again in the future.”

“Alright.” Xie Jiling nodded and said, “I’m going upstairs now.”

“Alright.” Han Zhuofeng watched as she moved farther away.

But then, Xie Jiling suddenly rushed back after she had turned away and walked a few steps toward her.

She tiptoed and quickly pecked Han Zhuofeng on the lips. She blushed as she said, “Goodnight kiss. Goodbye.”

Xie Jiling didn’t wait for Han Zhuofeng’s response. She seemed to be worried that he might pull her back because she quickly ran away.

Han Zhuofeng froze. He stretched his hand up and touched his lips.

He barely drank any before he came here. But why did he already feel drunk?

Han Zhuofeng’s brain was blank as he made his way out of campus. He got into the taxi and was driven back to Sheng Yue.

The moment Xie Jiling stepped into her room, she saw Ren Linna and the others dashing back into the room from the balcony.

“We all saw it!” Ren Linna showed a flirtatious expression as she proceeded to wink at Xie Jiling.

“A certain someone walked away and ran back to give someone a kiss!” Kuang Xiaorou was so excited that she rolled her eyes.

“He walked you back while holding your hand. You must have bumped into a lot of couples, right? Does it feel good to be among the couples with your boyfriend?” Feng Yaqing said. As she thought about the scene, she felt so embarrassed and started shuddering as she covered her face.

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Xie Jiling decided to counter their jokes with an open mind. “It felt great. I’m going to wash up now and get in bed. I’m going to wait for his message.”

With that, she took her pajamas out and went to the bathroom.

***

Han Zhuofeng had truly drunk a little too much.

He felt dizzy as he went back to his house.

He was still thinking about Xie Jiling. No matter how drunk he was, he couldn’t forget about Xie Jiling.

He was so drunk that he barely had the energy to wash up, but he kept thinking about when Xie Jiling might arrive tomorrow.

If she were to come early and he was still asleep.

It wouldn’t be good if Xie Jiling saw how smelly and dirty he looked.

As such, he pulled himself up and went to the bathroom.

He couldn’t shower, but he washed his face and brushed his teeth.

He then crashed on the bed.

He took his phone and found Xie Jiling’s WeChat. “I’m home. I drank a little too much. I’m going to sleep. Good night.”

Xie Jiling felt assured after receiving the WeChat message. She replied, “Good night,” and slept as well.

The next morning, Xie Jiling headed to Han Zhuofeng’s house after she had eaten breakfast.

With the passcode that Han Zhuofeng had saved on her phone, she successfully opened the door.

The house was really quiet.

She could hear someone’s faint snoring.

The door to Han Zhuofeng’s room was ajar. It wasn’t closed.

Xie Jiling popped her head through the ajar door and saw that Han Zhuofeng was still sleeping.

Xie Jiling decided not to disturb him.

She didn’t know when he would wake up.

And so, she left the house.

She walked around the places nearby and found a restaurant that specialized in breakfast.

She bought buns and soymilk. Even if such food and drinks turned cold, they could heat it up, and it wouldn’t taste horrible.

She didn’t know how much Han Zhuofeng could eat. She pondered and decided to buy three drawers of dumplings.

Each drawer of dumplings was of a different flavor.

When she went back to Han Zhuofeng’s house, Han Zhuofeng was still asleep.

Xie Jiling left the breakfast in the kitchen.

She then went to the living room and sat on the sofa. She wore her headphones and watched a show.

She waited until almost noon.

Yet, Han Zhuofeng still showed no signs of waking up. Xie Jiling felt really bored.

She wanted to take a look at Han Zhuofeng again.

She leaned on the doorframe and hesitated as she popped her head through the ajar door. Like a cat that had confirmed that the surroundings were safe, she stepped into Han Zhuofeng’s room.

The window to Han Zhuofeng’s room was slightly opened.

Therefore, the room barely smelled of alcohol. The smell of the alcohol had already disappeared, thanks to the ventilation.

When Xie Jiling sat on the carpet next to the bed and leaned closer to Han Zhuofeng, she noticed the smell of alcohol.

But it was just the smell of alcohol. There were no other smells.

“Are you not going to wake up?” Xie Jiling stared at Han Zhuofeng for a moment.
