Volume 1: Classmate Youth Chapter 29: Mom, there really isn't a man in my room.

  The sky is slightly bright.

  It was only around 5 or 6 o'clock, and there were already many early-rising aunties on the path under Jinhua residential area, hurrying to go to the market to buy vegetables.

  Dada...

  The footsteps, with a bit of fatigue from not sleeping well, Wu Qiaoying got out of the taxi and finally arrived at Jinhua Community where her daughter Lin Qingxue was.

  "Building C, Room 302, that's it. This dead girl, I told her a few days ago to pick me up at the train station for the 4am train from Jian'an this morning, but I waited for half a day and no one showed up, and when I called her phone was turned off, she must have forgotten."

  With a hint of anger, Wu Qiaoying put the luggage bag by the door and then, without pressing the doorbell, deliberately knocked loudly.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  Bang! Bang! Bang......

  The knock on the door was very loud and could be heard clearly throughout the entire house.

  "Who is it?! Knocking on the door so early in the morning..."

  Sulin, who was lying on the sofa and having a beautiful dream, woke up in a daze, muttering complaints. But the next second after slightly opening her eyes, Sulin looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of her, and suddenly her mind went blank, and she became wide awake.

  "Am I not in my own home? This is... this is Lin Laoshi's home. Last night, we..."

  She slapped her forehead, remembering what happened last night. Su Lin was so scared that she sat up straight on the sofa, "I remember I saved Teacher Lin yesterday and sent her home. Teacher Lin was poisoned by Liu Yuanfeng and felt very uncomfortable. We almost... Fortunately, I taught Teacher Lin to take care of herself in the bathroom... And I was also on the sofa..."

  Thinking of this, Su Lin was even more shocked, because his memory broke off here and he couldn't remember what happened next.

  "I was holding Lin teacher's stockings on the sofa, but I couldn't think of what happened next? Could it be... I was too tired and fell asleep while playing with them?"

  Looking at the thick blanket covering her body, Su Lin thought to herself, "This... was it Teacher Lin who covered me with this blanket later? Then... did she see anything? Was I discovered holding her stockings..."

  As he thought about it, Su Lin felt that his pants were a bit awkward to wear, the four corners of his underwear weren't bulging properly, and it was clear that these weren't his own pants. And on the sofa, everything was spotless, except for this one woolen blanket, where else would there be black silk stockings?

  "It's all over! Teacher Lin must have found out, what can I do now? How will Teacher Lin look at me?"

  Su Lin felt that his image in Teacher Lin's eyes was completely ruined, but it seemed like he wasn't a good image in Lin Qingxue's eyes to begin with.

  Knock knock knock...

  It was another knock at the door, and Su Lin finally came to her senses. She looked at the wall clock and saw that it was only 5:50. "So early, who could be knocking on Teacher Lin's door?" she exclaimed in surprise. "Teacher Lin has always lived alone and doesn't even have a boyfriend!"

  "This dead girl, it's almost six o'clock, and she's still sleeping so soundly?"

  She knocked several times without getting an answer, Wu Qiaoying paused for a moment, then knocked even harder, shouting towards the house: "Qingshu, you dead girl, hurry up and open the door. If you didn't come to pick me up at the train station, that's fine, but now you won't even open the door for me? Open the door quickly!"

  "What? The old hag yelling and pounding on the door outside is Principal Lin's mother?"

  "Sulin, who was about to go open the door, suddenly jumped up in fright. "What's going on? Isn't Lin Laoshi's home in Fuzhong City, the provincial capital? How did her mother get here so early? What are we going to do now? If Lin Laoshi's mother finds me here... this is completely unexplainable..."

  Can't open the door, even if I die, I won't go and open the door!

  But if you don't open the door, can Lin Laoshi's mother just stand outside like this?

  Su Lin was anxious now, this is neither opening the door nor can it be done without opening the door! What to do after all?

  "What to do? What to do?"

  Su Lin was so anxious that he was dizzy and turning around, trying to think of a solution, while on the other hand, Lin Qingxue was also woken up by the knocking sound. Wearing loose sleepwear, with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes that were not yet fully open, she opened the bedroom door, stretched her waist and walked into the living room.

  "Ah!"

  It was obvious that Lin Qingxue hadn't woken up yet, and as usual, she walked into the living room but suddenly saw Su Lin, such a big man, how could she not be startled, hurriedly covering her loose sleepwear, holding her chest, and exclaimed, "Su Lin, what are you doing in my house?"

  "Teacher Lin, you... have you forgotten? It was me who sent you back last night!"

  Su Lin was taken aback, could it be that Teacher Lin had forgotten everything that happened yesterday?

  "Yesterday? You sent me back? I...I remembered."

  Lin Qingxue patted her forehead, and yesterday's events all came flooding back to her. In an instant, Lin Qingxue's face turned completely red. She recalled last night in the bathroom, she had actually asked Su Lin to teach her about that sort of thing, and the feeling was so comfortable.

  Seeing Lin Qingxue's face turn red all the way to her neck, Su Lin knew that Lin Qingxue had really remembered everything from last night. Staring at Lin Qingxue who was lowering her head, she looked like a delicate snow lotus flower, shy and charming.

  The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but it only lasted for a few seconds. Lin's mother, Wu Qiaoying, who had been waiting outside the door, grew impatient and shouted loudly: "Qingshuang, you dead girl, open the door quickly!"

  "Ah? Mom!"

  Lin Qingxue only then remembered that her mother had come to Jian'an specifically to see her, and the train had arrived at more than 4 o'clock in the morning. She had originally planned to get up early to pick up her mother, but who would have thought that yesterday's incident would make her forget?

  "Wait, wait, wait...... Mom, sorry, I'll come and open the door right away..."

  Hurriedly walking to the door, Lin Qingxue turned the doorknob and had just opened the door when she caught a glimpse of Su Lin out of the corner of her eye. She suddenly stiffened, "Su Lin is actually here, still wearing his own pajamas. Now it's 6 o'clock in the morning, what would mom think if she saw him?"

  "It's been half a day since you opened the door, girl, you sleep so soundly, mom has been calling for half a day..."

  The door opened and Lin's mother pushed it open just as she was about to enter, but Lin Qingxue suddenly used force again and slammed the door shut.

  "Sulin, what are you still standing there for? My mom is coming, and she absolutely can't see you. You... hurry up and find a place to hide!"

  Lin Qingxue hastened her pace, pushing the door open while urging Su Lin in a soft and urgent tone.

  "Oh... oh... hide... hide..."

  Su Lin came to her senses and was also a bit frantic, hastily running into Lin Qingxue's bedroom, the only place she could hide.

  "Lin Qingxue! You little scoundrel, what do you mean by this? I called out to you for half the day and you wouldn't open the door for me. Now that you've opened it, you're closing it again. If you don't want me to come see you, just say so outright. Mom won't be coming again in the future."

  Su Lin, who was indoors, hid in the bedroom, but Lin's mother, who was outdoors, flew into a rage. Lin Qingxue saw that Su Lin had hidden safely and let out a sigh of relief before opening the door to face her mother's furious onslaught.

  "Mom... mom... I'm sorry, I was grading assignments too late last night, so I slept in too much today and forgot to pick you up. When I woke up, my head was still dizzy..."

  Lin Qingxue hastily put on an innocent and pitiful look, took the package from her mother's hand, and welcomed her in.

  "Hum! Qingxue, you've grown up now, your wings are hard too. Look how long it's been since you last came home?"

  As soon as they entered the house, Lin's mother Wu Caiying began to speak.

  "Mom, isn't this year's class the graduating class? The kids have been studying hard for over a decade, and this is the most critical year. As their teacher, I have a heavy workload and can't just take time off to go home whenever I want. Besides, aren't you and dad doing well in Fuzhou City? I was thinking of going back home after the college entrance exams are over and staying for two months, but I didn't expect you to rush here so anxiously."

  Actually, Lin Qingxue was really touched that her mother would take an overnight train and travel through mountains and rivers just to see her. She knew that her mother was famous for having a sharp tongue but a soft heart, being insincere with her words, although she wouldn't spare anyone with her mouth, but always managed to make people feel warm inside.

  "Never mind, never mind, I won't mention you. Mom has to rush to the toilet, this broken train, someone's been in the bathroom all night, it's suffocating me..."

  After putting down her bag, Lin's mother quickly walked into the bathroom and started relieving herself with a loud whoosh without even closing the door properly.

  After a while, Lin's mother walked out of the bathroom with a gloomy face, holding a dirty black silk stocking in her hand, with a white sticky substance on it. She glared at Lin Qingxue and said, "You little wretch, I knew why you opened the door so late for me. Was there a man staying overnight in your room last night?"

  "What? That's... Oh no! I forgot, yesterday I left Su Lin's thing in the bathroom and mom saw it."

  Lin Qingxue suddenly remembered that after she came out of the bathroom yesterday, she saw Su Lin holding her stockings and playing with them, even getting them dirty. Moreover, Su Lin fell asleep while playing with them, which made Lin Qingxue feel both angry and embarrassed. However, looking at Su Lin's sleeping face with a satisfied smile, she couldn't bear to wake him up. So, she carefully helped Su Lin put on his underwear and then threw the dirty black stockings into the laundry basket in the bathroom.

  But who would have thought that the next day, Lin's mother actually came over and ran into the bathroom, where she just happened to find the black silk stockings with evidence of the crime still on them?

  "Mom, you...you misunderstood, that...that's not..."

  Lin Qingxue hastily explained, but Lin's mother was an old hand and how could she not be familiar with the taste of that thing? Moreover, she also knew her daughter very well. When she started telling lies, it was like this - her eyes darted around restlessly, not daring to look people straight in the eye.

  "Still saying it's a misunderstanding? That man must still be in the house, right? Where is he hiding? Qingxue, are you going to call him out or should mom go drag him out herself?"

  Lin Mu was not lenient, speaking with a strong tone and an intimidating demeanor. Before Lin Qingxue could respond, she rushed towards the bedroom, "She must be hiding in the bedroom! Fine! Lin Qingxue, you've got a boyfriend and didn't even tell your mom?"

  "Mom! Listen to me, mom... there really is no man in my room..."

  Watching her mother push open the bedroom door, Lin Qingxue hastily stepped forward, but it was already too late!
