"Go home!" Si Chen raised his hand, ruffling Tong Yao's hair. His eyes softened, and his voice mellowed, "Ensure all doors and windows are locked tonight. If anything happens, contact Boyi or Xiaohui. I'll be back once I finish my work in Kyoto."
After Si Chen left, Tong Yao suddenly felt like a large part of her heart was missing. Normally, they saw each other every day, so she didn't think much of it. But now, knowing that Si Chen would be away for ten days, she inevitably felt a little lost and empty.
"Sister-in-law, these are the steamed buns I made. Give it a taste." Back at the dormitory, Tong Yao ate a few buns, and gave the rest to Li Nuanchun.
"Oh my, sis, you're so talented. These steamed buns are beautifully made. I can't bear to eat them." Li Nuanchun received the buns with a smile that narrowed her eyes into slits.
"Hmm... I was just messing around. I got up too early and I'm a bit sleepy now, so I'll take a nap."
