For the umpteenth time, Tan Mo thinks Qiao Lan is a leprechaun.

A goblin that could have killed him.

Qiao Lan is standing right in front of him, his arms open as if he could throw himself into his arms at any moment, his brand new belt in his hands, heavy enough to make your hands tremble.

"Two minutes to closing," Qiao Lan looked up into Tan Mo's small, flaming eyes, "before it's too late..."

Before the words were out of his mouth, Tan Mo stopped him at the waist and bit him on the lips, then without a word, he put the belt around Qiao Lan's waist.

The belt is a magical thing, as the originally loose camouflage uniform is instantly transformed with the belt. Tan Mo doesn't know if it's the uniform or the fact that Qiao Lan is so pretty. Qiao Lan's already delicate and flamboyant facial features are enhanced by the navy blue camouflage uniform, which is not only pretty but also handsome.

Qiao Lan allowed Tan Mo to stare at her for a long time, curving her eyes with a smile on her lips, "Satisfied?"

NONE.

Just like before, Tan Mo wanted to kiss after a hug, and wanted something deeper after the kiss, so there were all sorts of thoughts and ideas going through Tan Mo's head at the moment.

But there was no time for that, the hostel aunt was already shouting for someone.

Qiao Lan urged him to hurry back before he couldn't get in even after the men's dormitory was closed.

Tan Mo then remembered that Qiao Lan was not the only one with access control, he had it too.

Residential.

It's really annoying.

Even though Tan Mo was running fast, she was still a few minutes late. The hostess opened the door from the inside and was not very happy, but she took a look at Tan Mo.

The boy is so handsome too!

These days, everyone loves a good-looking person, and when you look as good as Tan Mo, even the hostess aunt can't be bothered to scold him.

Xie Hongyi remembered the photo of Tan Mo surrounded by a group of schoolmates that she had sent to Qiao Lan today and asked Tan Mo, "Did my younger sister give a lecture?"

"Tan Mo has no idea what Xie Hongyi is talking about.

Wasn't there a lecture? Xie Hongyi jumped up from the bed, Qiao Lan was definitely nervous when she sent the photo to him! Xie Hongyi wanted to see a little jealousy and pettiness between a couple, but nothing happened?

But Tan Mo clearly doesn't know anything.

This was a bit of a disappointment to the very fetching Xie Hongyi.

But while disappointed, I was a little more interested in Tan Mo and Qiao Lan, "Fourth son, how long have you been with your sister-in-law?"

I don't know why, but I always felt that Tan Mo and Qiao Lan were different from other couples. Although it is said that couples in love are always sweet, these two have an indescribable warmth and sometimes an illusion of being an old married couple.

So Xie Hongyi wondered if Tan Mo and Qiao Lan had been together for a long time.

Tan Mo was the youngest in the dormitory, and before he could say yes or no, he had already become the fourth son, and Xie Hongyi was even more affectionate, calling him "fourth son".

How long have you been together?

"Eight months," Tan Mo remembers well, the day they got together was Valentine's Day.

Xie Hongyi nodded, "That's quite a long time", seven or eight months would be a good time to develop a relationship, right? As a straight man who has only experienced one week of relationship experience, Xie Hongyi says he is not sure at all.

Kong Sha put down his pen thoughtfully, "So you've liked her for a long time, then."

Xie Hongyi subconsciously wanted to say how stupid you are, you've been together for as long as you like, only to hear Tan Mo say, "Two years."

Eh? Xie Hongyi's head was full of questions, why was it different from what he thought?

"And how long have you known?"

"Three years."

Kong Sha nodded unsurprisingly, and remembered it all too well.

When Xie Hongyi asked Tan Mo how long we had been together, Tan Mo said eight months without thinking, but if it was an ordinary person, he would never remember so clearly.

But Tan Mo speaks quickly, as if she has each day memorised.

That's why Kong Sha concludes that Tan Mo must have liked Qiao Lan for a long time before the relationship was confirmed.

When Tan Mo went into the bathroom, Xie Hongyi looked at the two remaining housemates in a dumbfounded manner before finally turning to Kong Sha and asking, "How did you know that he liked his sister-in-law before?"

Kong Sha didn't really want to answer such a retarded question, so he left a game of "stupid" and went back to reading his book.

The last thing is that another housemate, Cheng Jin, couldn't bear to look at it and asked Xie Hongyi, "Everyone in a relationship always has to get to know each other first, then have a good feeling, then go through a period of ambiguity, and finally at the right opportunity to determine the relationship, before not like how to be together, do you want to have a relationship first before you have a name to dwell on the issue of feelings? "

Xie Hongyi jumped up from his chair, "Crap how did you know that!"

Cheng Jin: "......???"

Xie Hongyi shared his only relationship experience with Cheng Jin. Once a cute primary school girl approached him and said she liked him and confessed her love for him, Xie Hongyi, who has been a solo mother for many years, finally sighed that he was lucky.

On the second day, he asked her name and made her cry, Xie Hongyi really didn't understand why she was crying. Xie Hongyi couldn't understand why she couldn't understand such a simple question...

A week later, Xie Hongyi was broken up with.

After hearing this story, Cheng Jin simply did not know what to say.

"So I'm taking the wrong steps," Xie Hongyi said, slapping her head like I finally understood, "am I getting married first and then loving later?"

Cheng Jin: ...... he should not have spoken.

Seeing how smart Kong Sha is and how he refuses to listen to such a retarded love story, he finally understands what Kong Sha means when he says Xie Hongyi is a "harpy".

Tan Mo goes to the bathroom to take a shower and misses Xie Hongyi's 'love story'.

As a slight neat freak, Tan Mo still finds it difficult to share a bathroom with other people, but Tan Mo has come to understand the meaning of the word "adapt", that everything you don't like or get used to is something you have to get used to.

After taking a shower, I turned on my computer and looked at today's stock market, then turned off the lights at 11:30 p.m. Qiao Lan's good night tweet arrived as promised.

Tan Mo chuckled softly as he looked at the bunny bouncing around on his phone saying goodnight.

Good night.

The next day when military training finally began, the campus was instantly flooded with little green men, no, little blue men.

Qiao Lan had to give up after looking for the flag of the mathematics department, which was a hundred thousand miles away from her.

The assembly was a bit boring, Liu Cancan saw Qiao Lan's movement and smiled, "Looking for your boyfriend."

Qiao Lan and Liu Cancan are quite close.

There are only four people in the dormitory, one wears headphones every day and is a loner, one Luo Man doesn't get along, Liu Cancan is a bit like Bai Yu, he is quite cool when he doesn't talk, but when he does talk, he is a bit of a comedian, and his personality is very straightforward.

Qiao Lan nodded, "But it's a bit far away, I can't see it."

Liu Cancan followed Qiao Lan's line of sight and saw the flag of the Maths Department, "Your boyfriend is in Maths?"

"Well, what's wrong."

Liu Cancan actively shared the gossip with Qiao Lan, "I saw in the school's posting that there is a boy with unbelievable face in the maths department this year, and he scored the first in the ten provinces in the college entrance exam, so the previously selected seniors were forced to give way. ..."

Qiao Lan didn't hear the second half of the sentence at all, but only the first half of the sentence about being number one in the ten provinces and having an unbelievable face, and was immediately filled with pride, tugging Liu Cancan's sleeve and whispering in Liu Cancan's ear, "Let me tell you a secret."

"What's the secret?"

Qiao Lan's eyes shone brightly, "That's my boyfriend."

Liu Cancan froze and thought for a long time before hesitantly whispering, "The new schoolboy or Ji Su?"

Qiao Lan was baffled, " Who is Ji Su?"

Liu Cancan: ...... Is the presence of the departmental grass in our department this low?

So it's the new schoolboy?

Holy shit!

Liu Cancan has learned a shocking secret, but in retrospect, it doesn't seem too surprising. Although there are lots of people on the blog lamenting that the schoolboy is too good, there are also some people saying that there are several girls with great looks this year, probably because there are so few psychology students, a psychology student nominated Qiao Lan but not many people know about it.

Liu Cancan looked at the girls who were photographed at the bottom of the building, none of them were as good as Qiao Lan, not to mention Qiao Lan's figure. Not to mention Qiao Lan's figure. Even the military training uniform looks different on Qiao Lan, who has long legs.

Liu Cancan, who had not been interested in Qiao Lan's boyfriend, suddenly became interested in the word "schoolboy" and wanted to see a handsome man.

When the military training pep rally was over, the half-month-long military training finally began.

Maybe it's because Qiao Lan has been running for three years in high school and is in good physical condition, so she didn't feel too hard, but the sun was a bit hot.

At lunchtime, even Tan Mo could not get used to the idea of eating in the canteen with so many people, so they went to eat off-campus.

Qiao Lan has the habit of taking a nap, and is a bit sleepy after eating, but if I go back to the dormitory now, it will take me at least 10 to 20 minutes to walk back, and then I will have to go to the military training, so I won't even be able to sleep for 20 minutes.

Tan Mo looked at Qiao Lan, who was sleepy, and looked through the glass at a hotel directly across the street, "Get a room."

Qiao Lan woke up instantly with a jolt: "What's ...... doing in a room?"

Why this sudden request? That's...so unprepared...how can you think of one thing and another...it's only one hour at noon...one hour is not enough...right...

As a result, I heard Tan Mo say, "Go take a nap."

Qiao Lan: "......"

I'm sorry! She's the one with the dirty mind!

No shame in that.

In broad daylight and in broad daylight...

Tan Mo's eyes saw Qiao Lan's suddenly flushed cheeks, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Qiao Lan blurted out, "how can you waste a... a room just for a nap! Money doesn't come from the wind, even though you're rich, you can't be so wasteful, can you go on living?"

Qiao Lan doesn't even know what she's talking about, so she's talking nonsense to cover up the shame she feels inside.

Tan Mo had no idea what was going through Qiao Lan's mind at the moment, and he mentally retorted to Qiao Lan that he could still make more money in the future, and that with his current assets, he would be able to support several Qiao Lan.

But in the end he didn't say anything, pulling Qiao Lan out of the restaurant and into the hotel across the street, "There are hourly rooms, they're not expensive."

"Expensive."

"I'm tired and I don't want to walk back", Tan Mo said.

As soon as the subject came up with Tan Mo, Qiao Lan finally stopped objecting.

"I don't have my ID with me."

"I brought it."

"Why do I need to bring my ID card for military training?"

"...to book a hotel."

In fact, he didn't know, somehow he managed to bring it along, but now it seems necessary.

Run to a hotel and book a room just to take a nap.

Qiao Lan covers his face.

It's really too extravagant!

Apart from the extravagance there was one more awkward thing, the hotel receptionist stared at the two of them for a long time, with a meaningful look that at first glance meant she wanted to be off.

Young couples get a couple of hours in an hourly room or something...

Qiao Lan was suddenly envious of Tan Mo's Asperger syndrome, and Tan Mo couldn't understand the flirtatious look in the lady's eyes.

"Come here."

Qiao Lan: "......"

Can we not go there?

Tan Mo handed Qiao Lan his room card, "Go in first, you're in a hurry."

Qiao Lan: "......"

Why does it sound more and more wrong?

Without even looking at the receptionist, Qiao Lan took her room card and fled.

Tan Mo looked at Qiao Lan's back and smiled, turning his head back to his usual expressionless look, and said to the receptionist, "I'd like to book this room for half a month."

The receptionist sister froze, "Huh?"

Do you need...a package, a monthly package? Are the youngsters so good nowadays?

Tan Mo's expression was bland, "Freshman training, convenient place to take a nap."

Receptionist Sister: ......

Turns out it was just a nap.

So it was her who misunderstood?

But how could she be blamed for that, could she not! Nowadays, young people who have a part-time room are all in it for the sake of... after all, part-time rooms save money, which one is as rich as this young man in front of her and has to cover the night?

And this teenager has changed his face too quickly, right? When that little girl was there just now, how sunny and smiling she was, and when the little girl left, the whole person was cold and icy.

But spiteful as it is, the job still needs to be taken seriously, "Sorry, we don't offer monthly packages for hourly rooms at the hotel, in fact you can just come and check in every day."

"Trouble," Tan Mo said, "then change the room."

"Huh?"

"Change the room to one that is available on a monthly basis."

"...... That's not a cheap price."

The rooms that can be packed for half a month at a time are all standard rooms or more.

"It's okay," Tan Mo says, still expressionless.

It's all small change for him, and even if it is really expensive, the sky is the limit for girlfriend naps.

A word of advice to the lady at the front desk, though.

"If she asks you'll say it's a clockwork room."

"Why?"

The teenager, who had been cold, finally showed a little smile again.

"Because she doesn't like me to waste money."

So, remember not to tell her.
