After getting in the car, Wei Ling asked, "Where are you going next?"
"Go home." Li Can moved in his seat, "I'm exhausted today, go home and sleep."
"Okay." Wei Ling nodded and drove back to the community. When he arrived near the community, Li Can's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Slow down, slow down."
The speed of the vehicle immediately slowed down. Li Jingyao was standing next to a taxi on the roadside. The driver was struggling to help her lift the large suitcase out of the trunk.
"Pull over."
Li Jingyao was just about to drag her suitcase when she saw Li Can get out of a commercial vehicle.
"Yao Yao!"
Li Jingyao's eyes lit up, a bright smile burst out on her face, and she ran towards Li Can.
Meng Kui got out of the passenger seat, quickly took Li Jingyao's large suitcase, and helped her move it to the trunk. The vehicle drives into the underground garage and can go upstairs directly from the garage.
In the car, Li Can asked, "Your mother has gone to Nanling Province?"
"Yes." Li Jingyao nodded, with a worried look on her face, "Cancan, I heard that the place is very messy. Is my mother in danger?"
"Your mother is the deputy mayor, what danger could there be?" Li Can comforted her, "At most, it's just not as comfortable as Wei Jing."
"Yeah." Li Jingyao nodded, her mother told her the same thing.
After the two entered the house, Li Qing and Xia Shuyue were cooking in the kitchen. They came out when they heard the sound. When they saw Li Jingyao, they immediately smiled and said:
"Yao Yao is here? Cancan's house has been tidied up and replaced with new quilts and sheets. You can sleep now."
Li Jingyao blinked, "Thank you, auntie."
"Thank you, just treat it as your own home."
"Okay~"
In this way, Li Jingyao stayed at Li Can's house.
Although Li Qing and Xia Shuyue were very kind to Li Jingyao, even better than Xia Yunzhen, Li Jingyao was still a little uncomfortable. She follows Li Can all day long. Except for sleeping at night, she is basically wherever Li Can is.
In the dead of night, Li Jingyao sometimes sheds tears because she misses her mother.
Li Can prepared to go to the toilet before going to bed, but when he entered the bedroom, he found Li Jingyao wiping her tears. He pretended not to see it. After going to the toilet and coming out, he immediately got into Li Jingyao's bed.
Li Jingyao was startled, then blushed and said, "It's not closed yet."
Li Can took a look and saw that there was indeed a big gap, "Then go and close it."
Li Jingyao obediently closed the door, and then lay down next to Li Can again. Li Can hugged Li Jingyao's shoulders, "Why are you crying?"
"I... don't know, I just want to cry."
"Miss your mother?"
"Yes." Li Jingyao nodded and said with tears in her eyes: "I have been raised by my mother since I was a child. I have never been away from my mother for such a long time."
"You didn't cry when you went filming with me before?"
"no the same."
"Why is it different?" Li Can smiled and pinched Li Jingyao's little face, "Then if you think so, you will marry into my family, so you left your mother. Doesn't this make you feel better?"
"Marry into your family..." Li Jingyao's cheeks immediately turned red, and then she whispered: "Then should we sleep under the same quilt?"
"..." Li Can was speechless for a while, that is, she is still half a year away from turning 18. Otherwise, how could you, a little girl, be so arrogant now?
"You have a beautiful idea, go to bed quickly, we have to go to school tomorrow!"
"Oh." Li Jingyao nodded, then thought of something and grabbed Li Can who was about to leave, "Kiss her."
"Really."
Li Can smiled and kissed Li Jingyao's cheek, "Good night."
"Good night."
Li Jingyao stroked the side of her face and smiled.

After Xia Yunzhen returned to school, she felt that her roommates looked at her strangely. Xia Yunzhen's personality is introverted and kind, and she has a pretty good relationship with her roommate, who she has lived with for two years. When other people have conflicts, they often come to her to complain or to seek justice.
However, everyone was definitely not as enthusiastic about her as they are now. Especially Xiaoxue's eyes seemed to be shining.
When Xia Yunzhen returned to the dormitory, her luggage had not been put away. Xiaoxue rushed to Xia Yunzhen in one stride.
"Xue, Piao Ling has not met the Lord in half my life. If I don't give up, I would like to worship you as my righteous sister!"
Xia Yunzhen: "Huh? Which song are you singing in?"
Xiaoxue grabbed Xia Yunzhen's hands and said, "Sister! Please tell me when is the right time for Li Can and I to get married. The dowry must be sufficient!"
"Get out of here." Xia Yunzhen immediately gave Xiaoxue a roll of her eyes. She hasn't eaten the meat yet, so what can happen to you?
The other two roommates also came over.
"Sister! We have known each other for so long, how can we hide such a precious brother?"
"Doesn't this treat us as outsiders?"
"Yes, yes! Call me over someday and play together."
"We can go there too!"
"Isn't Zhili's dowry 188,000 yuan? I'll give you 200,000 yuan!"
"I'll pay 250,000!"
"I have 300,000!"
Xia Yunzhen was helpless, she would not have posted that TikTok message if she had known it.

After the new semester, the senior year of high school has officially arrived.
The bachelor's degree rate of Hexi No. 1 Middle School is as high as 99%. Basically, except for repeat students, everyone can go to college, but just going to bachelor's degree is not their goal. One copy, or even two copies, is their goal.
After the third year of high school, class started at 7:45 in the morning and lasted until 8:45 in the evening. You have to stay in school for 13 hours a day!
Of course Li Can wouldn't stay that long. He and Li Jingyao got off school on time at 5 pm, and they didn't attend make-up classes on Saturdays and Sundays. This is not a privilege, because the teacher said that if there are cram schools or one-on-one tutoring outside, evening and six-day tutoring is not allowed.
Isn't Li Can Li Jingyao's tutor?
No matter in the past life or in this life, the college entrance examination is taken very seriously. Whether one can get into college seems to determine whether a person has a promising future.
The reason is also very simple. In an era when academic qualifications were generally low, a high academic qualification meant that you could have a decent job. Therefore, parents naturally believe that learning is everything. Of course, it is easier to find a job with a higher degree.
Therefore, under the dual pressure of school and family, students are under great pressure. Li Can obviously felt that there were more students smoking in the school. As soon as the class bell rang, many students ran towards him smelling of cigarettes.
The school knows, but it is not easy to impose too many restrictions on senior high school students. Of course, not everyone uses smoking to relieve stress. Squad leader Xu Weiwei is an alternative.
During the break, many students went to smoke or go out to get some fresh air. Li Jingyao went to the bathroom, while Li Can walked to the corridor alone to stretch.
Xu Weiwei's failure to confess his love during his sophomore year of high school did not make the relationship between the two awkward. Instead, Xu Weiwei, as usual, often had nothing to say to Li Can.
No, Xu Weiwei came over again, "Li Can, do you like small animals?"
Li Can glanced at Xu Weiwei doubtfully and replied truthfully: "It's okay."
"Do you like cats or dogs?"
"Anything is fine." Li Can liked both cats and dogs, but he was more of a cat fan.
"Then do you want to raise a little bitch?"
Although he likes dogs, Li Can has never thought about raising a dog. After all, raising a pet is a very troublesome thing, especially if you have to walk the dog, it is also very inconvenient to travel far away.
Just as Li Can was about to answer, he saw Xu Weiwei raise his hands to look like dog paws, then stuck out his tongue and shouted: "Woof woof woof!"
"..."
"?"
"???"
Li Can was shocked on the spot, with an expression like an old man looking at his cell phone on the subway, "Sister Chou, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Weiwei seemed to have come to his senses. His neck turned red to his ears in an instant, and he ran away without looking back.
Li Jingyao saw it from a distance and came over confused, "What happened?"
Just when Li Can was about to say something, Xu Weiwei rushed out of the classroom again and almost knelt down in front of Li Can, "Don't say it, please."
"Okay, okay." Li Can didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's class, go back quickly."
Li Jingyao looked suspicious, but Xu Weiwei thanked him profusely.
Fortunately, Li Jingyao is a person who doesn't like gossip. If she keeps asking, Li Can doesn't know how long she can endure it.
On Saturday, not only did they not go to class, Li Qing and Xia Shuyue were not at home either. This is basically a world for two, so Li Jingyao’s favorite is Saturday.
However, Li Jingyao is not as good as Li Can, and Li Can's high school knowledge has been fully polished. If you score 750 points in the college entrance examination, there is no problem if you get a score of 740 or above. There is no way, the knowledge of a full-level high school is so strong.
Li Jingyao is just an ordinary person and can only keep answering questions. Therefore, even on Saturday, Li Jingyao could only wear thin pajamas and rely on Li Can to study.
"My head is going to explode."
After finishing three math papers in a row, Li Jingyao looked at Li Can pitifully, "Can we do something else?"
"Well..." Li Can thought for a while, "What do you want to do?"
"Please play the piano for me." Li Jingyao said with a smile.
Li Can basically plays the piano for half an hour every day, and he has to play the piano casually. The more you want to gain experience points and play those difficult and complicated songs, the experience points will not increase for some reason, so Li Can is in trouble.
"Okay."
Li Can nodded, took Li Jingyao's hand and walked to the living room, closed the curtains, sat at the piano keys, and casually ordered a short song.
