After asking clearly where he was, An Jingxing quickly returned to the place where he lived before.
Naturally, she still felt a little uncomfortable, but she was not used to living in other people's homes, let alone a neighbor she only knew a few times.
She lived in a girls' dormitory shared by several people. When she opened the door with the key and walked in, a girl was walking out of the bathroom after taking a shower. She was startled when she saw her.
"Jing Xing, you...why are you back?"
"Well...I recently traveled far away. What's wrong? I remember that my rent seems to be paid until next year..." Because she had one year to graduate, she paid all the rent before graduation.
"Traveling away? Didn't your sister say you went to your boyfriend's house? The rent... your sister said you don't need to get it back and just asked us to rent out the room again..."
"What about my old stuff?"
"Your sister took it!"
An Jingxing knew that An Jinmu never wanted to see him, but he didn't expect that she could do such a good job. His heart dropped. Among those things was her bankbook, which was the money she had saved through frugality over the years.
There is also some money earned from opening a store with Lei Aotian.
Those are her tuition fees for next year, and the start-up funds she plans to save to study abroad after graduation.
Anyway, sooner or later, she would have to settle an account with An Jinmu, and add this sum.
An Jinmu, since I am still alive, sooner or later I will get back what you owe me!

The phone number has long since been lost.
But Lei Aotian's phone call was still in her mind.
After coming out of that place, An Jingxing had actually been hesitant about contacting Lei Aotian.
We haven’t seen each other for ten months. Has he looked for me?
Or...has he given up?
After all, An Jinmu gave herself to that man in order to disappear from Lei Aotian's side. Now that he hasn't come back for ten months, An Jinmu must have done something in the meantime.
However, she still believed in Lei Aotian, not because of anything else, but because of the nearly fifteen years of relationship between them.
She has no relatives, and Lei Aotian is not only her boyfriend, but also the closest person to her.
So as long as he says something, she will never doubt it. And she believes it, and vice versa.
With this belief, An Jingxing found a public phone booth and dialed Lei Aotian's cell phone.
Beep...beep...beep...
A rhythmic voice came from the phone, and An Jingxing couldn't help holding her breath while waiting. The public phone she used belonged to a newsstand, and there was a stall of the latest Bicheng Evening News next to it.
She glanced at the newspaper, and the next moment, the title on the newspaper caught her attention.
‘Lei Aotian, the youngest special assistant to the mayor of Bicheng and the most anticipated rising officialdom, showed up at the hospital with his mysterious wife, and his happy expression seemed to have given birth to a baby boy.’
"Hello, Lei Aotian." When she read the entire title word for word, a man's deep response came from the other end of the phone.
At this moment, she felt as if a lightning had struck apart her world. She clutched the phone urgently, speechless for a moment, but did not put it down immediately...
"Hello, hello?" The other end of the phone was still shouting, but her mind was filled with the intimate photo of them cuddling together in the newspaper.
