The Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars Boyfriend

  "Cough, you won't answer me a few questions tonight, don't even think about entering the dormitory door!" Wen Le stood behind the door panel with a cup of hot milk, gazing at her quietly.

  "Hurry up and ask." Tang Jiji now finally understood that Wen Le was taking the gossip spirit to the extreme at all times.

  "Are you going on a date with a guy tonight? Is he incredibly handsome? Is he from Nanda? Is he pursuing you..."

  Tang Jiji leaned against the door, pondering Chen Ci's words. Suddenly, Shen Nanxiao's face flashed in her mind, and her hand on the wall felt a warmth that lingered for a moment, bringing out a hint of sweetness.

  Like a child who knocks over a jar of honey and finally tastes the sweetness, although they will get scolded by adults, they still savor that sweet taste from the inside out.

  "Hey! Jiji, don't think you can fool me like that!"

  Tang Jiji finally came back to her senses, recalling the questions Wen Le had asked earlier, and then thought of Shen Nan's face, which would make one's heart beat faster if he leaned in a bit closer. She said unnaturally: "Hmmm...he looks okay, is from Nanda..."

  "Really hit it all! Ji Ji, is he...?" Wen Le started to exclaim again, but her excited voice was cut off by another woman's cold tone.

  "Wen Le, can't you be quiet for a moment on such a late night..." Tao Tao's voice somehow sounded sharper than usual at this moment. She immediately opened the bedroom door, with an unusual chill in her eyes and eyebrows.

  Although Tang Jiji rarely communicated with Tao Tao on ordinary days, in her impression, she was a girl who loved to laugh extremely. When laughing, the appearance of shallow pear blossoms was exceptionally clear and touching, but when looking at Tang Jiji, her eyes always had a few points that were unpredictable.

  Tang Jiji was taken aback for a moment, but soon turned sideways and walked into the bedroom. At this moment, Tao Tao's eyes suddenly locked onto Tang Jiji, "Tang Jiji, can you come back on time every night from now on? Either come back early or don't come back at all. Do you think it's fun to mess around with Wen Le here? Don't you feel noisy?"

  Tang Jiji walked to the bedside and said calmly: "Good."

  But Wen Le clearly heard the strong smell of gunpowder from these few words, and immediately became unhappy: "Tao Tao, listening to you, I feel like you're obviously picking a fight. Coming back to the dorm at 11 pm is normal, didn't you also come back several times after midnight? What do you mean by accusing Ji Ji now?"

  Tao Tao's face was shrouded in the shadow of the mosquito net, her voice couldn't hide the threads of anger: "Then what do you mean by blaming me for her now? Wen Le, you clearly know that I've been in a bad mood these past few days, and I remember that when I'm in a bad mood, you never blame me..."

  "Hey, being in a bad mood can't...". Wen Le was about to say something else, but saw the look in Tang Jiji's eyes and coldly shut his mouth.

  In the midst of a lukewarm silence, Tang Jiji changed into her pajamas and arranged her pillow, preparing to lie down. The phone on her bedside table glowed with tiny stars in the darkness, as text message notifications came pouring in one after another.

  Have you slept?

  It's a message from Shen Nanxiao. Tang Jiji snorted, "Will you still be looking at my messages after falling asleep?" Just as she was about to ignore it directly, another message popped into her eyes.

  Are you hungry?

  "Rumble..." Her stomach suddenly let out a happy "rumble" sound, and her eyes, which had just been about to close, snapped open. She quickly replied: I'm hungry.

  Think about it, tonight I didn't move much of those so-called candlelight dinners, but then again I thought to scold myself for being stupid. You say you're hungry and he won't immediately deliver something to pamper you, maybe seeing you starve makes him happy...

  Tang Jiji, who was really hungry, had no sleepiness and knelt on the bed to rummage through the backpack beside her pillow, hoping to find something to eat...

  Suddenly, the sound of unlocking came from the dormitory door. With a "click", someone turned on the switch and lit up the fluorescent lamp in the dormitory, and the gathered light and the movement at the door shocked everyone in the room awake.

  And standing by the door was - Dorm Auntie! Dorm Auntie, holding a blue lunchbox, walked over to Tang Jiji: "Ah, nowadays kids are really considerate. This student, your boyfriend just asked me to bring this over for you to eat while it's hot, eat slowly, I'll leave first."

  After the dorm aunt closed the door, Wen Le on the upper bunk immediately stuck out her head and looked at Tang Jiji: "Wow, it turns out that he is already your boyfriend. He treats you so well, and even sends you things so late at night for fear of you going hungry. Such sincerity deserves to be called a twenty-four filial boyfriend."

  Tang Jiji glared at her: "Stop talking nonsense! To begin with, he wasn't my boyfriend. Besides, hearing your tone of envy, what's wrong? Isn't Du Wei good enough for you?"

  "Don't mention him! He's never sent me midnight snacks..."

  Tang Jiji smiled and remained silent as she opened her lunchbox and started eating the beef noodles in front of her. On the other side, Gu Boyue, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly spoke up in an extremely soft voice, as if afraid that others might hear: "But Du Wei is really good to you..."

  Gu Bo Yue turned over and fell asleep with her back against the wall, but her sleeping posture was extremely unstable. Gu Bo Yue's lower bunk, Tao Tao, snickered a few times in the brief silence before pulling up the thin quilt to cover her head and falling asleep.

  For a moment, each of the four people had different thoughts.

  After eating the beef noodles, Tang Jiji surprisingly felt a sense of satisfaction she had never experienced before. She smiled and fell asleep after turning off the lights. However, her hand still restlessly reached for her phone and sent out a short message amidst her anxiety.

  Why are you so nice to me?

  In just half a minute, his reply flashed with a bright blue light and jumped into view.

  I am being nice to my fiancée.
