Chapter 875: Xiao Chong Side Story 5

In early September, the autumn tiger was still rampant, and the weather was quite hot. Lin Wanwan’s room didn’t have air conditioning, only a small fan, so she naturally needed to open the window for ventilation.

Xiao Chong’s master bedroom actually had central air conditioning, but he also opened the window in his study, just to be closer to Lin Wanwan.

Suddenly, there was a neighbor at the window. Lin Wanwan was indeed a bit unaccustomed to it, but the cool breeze coming across was quite pleasant.

Feeling the gaze from across, Lin Wanwan turned her head to look back.

Xiao Chong met her gaze, calmly raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly: "What a coincidence, are you doing some prep work?"

Lin Wanwan nodded: "Yes."

Suddenly, Xiao Chong raised his hand, and an unidentified object flew over, landing accurately beside Lin Wanwan’s book. Upon closer inspection, it was three small-packaged Ferrero chocolates.

"It’s good to have something sweet when using your brain at night," Xiao Chong said with a smile, then walked away.

Lin Wanwan’s lips moved slightly, but in the end, she only said: "Thank you."

The voice was very low, not sure if Xiao Chong on the opposite side heard it.

Looking at the chocolates in her hand, Lin Wanwan hesitated for a moment, opened the packaging, took out a chocolate ball, and lightly bit it, then couldn’t help but eat it all at once.

Who could resist something so delicious!

The sweetness itself can bring people a joyful feeling, and on this hopeful night at the beginning of a new school term, being able to eat pure chocolate made it even more delightful.

When Xiao Chong visited as a new neighbor the day before yesterday, he also gave Lin Wanwan a box of chocolates, which was still in the fridge, because Lin Wanwan wasn’t sure if she should eat something given by someone else.

After learning that the new neighbor next door had delivered chocolates, her grandfather returned the gesture by giving a bag of organic vegetables grown in their own backyard.

It was handed to Xiao Chong’s adoptive mother, but Lin Wanwan didn’t know more about the matter of reciprocating gifts.

After delivering the chocolates, Xiao Chong returned to his desk and picked up a book to read. Lin Wanwan also refocused and continued studying after finishing a chocolate.

If there were a camera here, it could capture the contrast between the two.

Xiao Chong was reading a mathematics journal, while Lin Wanwan was studying a high school textbook.

Studying was not much of an effort for Xiao Chong. Since he was young, he had a photographic memory, and after being transported to modern times receiving a modern education, his acceptance rate was very high.

Among these modern subjects, he liked math, physics, and chemistry, thinking that if one day he were transported back to the Great Tang, these subjects would allow him to do more of what he wanted.

As for literature and history, he wasn’t as attentive, but with his photographic memory and the Four Books and Five Classics he accumulated during his time in Great Tang, he could easily top the literature and history subjects.

Lin Wanwan finished reviewing the content of tomorrow’s textbooks, and the time reached eleven o’clock. It couldn’t be later, or it would affect her state during the day tomorrow.

She put away the books, went to the bathroom outside to brush her teeth, then returned to her room, turned off the light, and sleep.

Seeing the lights off next door, Xiao Chong also put away his book and went to wash up and turn off the lights to sleep.

Thinking of Wanwan sleeping in a house less than three meters away from him, Xiao Chong found it hard to fall asleep.

In the previous life, because of her words about the millennia gap and class differences, he had to exit in embarrassment. He watched as she slowly showed signs of love, but couldn’t change anything.

This life, they were in the same era. There was nothing that could separate them anymore.

Just silently liking and watching from a distance was too painful.

This life, he wanted her response, and everything.

The pain of unmet desires was like a thousand ants gnawing the heart, and he didn’t want to go through it again. The husband Lin Wanwan had in her last life, who knew where he was now? Xiao Chong had the confidence to intercept.

"Wanwan, I will never let go in this life," Xiao Chong muttered to himself, gaze firm.

The next day, as usual, Lin Wanwan quickly finished breakfast and was pushing her bike out to go to school when she happened to encounter Xiao Chong coming out next door.

It was quite surprising for Lin Wanwan to meet him so coincidentally every day.

Holding a glass thermos cup filled with freshly made hot soy milk, Xiao Chong casually placed it in Lin Wanwan’s bike basket: "This time it’s freshly ground soy milk. Have a taste. Drink it right away, or it will spoil."

Lin Wanwan looked confusedly at Xiao Chong, who walked away after putting down the cup. What did he mean by this? Why was he bringing her drinks every day?
