CHAPTER 79: CHAPTER 78: WHO SAYS SO

"Ah... we really swapped back..."

After calming down, Zhou Huaiyi and Xiang Qichen sat face to face on the couch in the living room.

To be honest, she felt a bit nervous.

This seemed like an official close encounter with her male idol...

She scratched her head, her eyes flickering, unsure what to say after the first sentence.

"It rained yesterday."

Xiang Qichen suddenly said this.

Zhou Huaiyi was taken aback: "Rain?"

"Yeah." He got up and fetched two bottles of water from the fridge and handed one to her. "Do you remember? The night before our souls swapped, there was also a thunderstorm in Yanchuan."

Zhou Huaiyi frowned, trying to recall, and in a daze, it seemed that was indeed the case.

That day she went to the airport to pick up Kang Xuan. It was clear and sunny during the day, but at night it suddenly changed, delaying the plane’s landing, and she coincidentally ran into Xiang Qichen.

And then the next day...

"It really was..." Zhou Huaiyi bit her finger, looking dazed.

Xiang Qichen: "Yeah."

After a while, Zhou Huaiyi thought of something else and looked over: "Do you think, the next time it rains, will we swap back again?"

Xiang Qichen glanced at her lightly: "I don’t know."

,

After breakfast, the first thing Zhou Huaiyi did was call Old Zhou.

Old Zhou was probably seeing patients, and when he picked up the call, he sounded a bit impatient: "What is it?"

Zhou Huaiyi didn’t care about his attitude, she was excited on her own: "Dad, hehe, I just missed you."

Old Zhou paused for a moment, then said: "Didn’t I just give you a thousand in cash when you came back from Yanchuan a few days ago? Spent it all already?"

Zhou Huaiyi: "???"

Old Zhou: "I’m busy now, I’ll transfer you some money later."

"Snap," the call was cut off.

Zhou Huaiyi stared at the darkened phone screen, twitching at the corners of her eyes.

She wasn’t asking for money! She really missed you, okay! Dad!

Then, she made a video call to Kang Xuan.

The alert rang for ten seconds before it was answered.

The first glance Kang Xuan took at the face on the screen, she froze for a moment, secretly delighted: "... Idol? Are you looking for me... about something?"

Zhou Huaiyi moved her lips, held back for a moment, and then burst out laughing: "About something my foot! Your Mr. Zhou is back!"

Kang Xuan: "???"

"Qi Chen and I swapped back..." Zhou Huaiyi said.

Kang Xuan: "So soon? I haven’t even taken advantage yet."

Zhou Huaiyi: "..."

Can we still be friends?

...

Later on, Xiang Qichen also told Yan Qing and Yang Li about the matter, and Zhou Huaiyi glanced at Xiang Qichen out on the balcony making calls, then quietly slipped away to the closet to pack her bags.

Since they swapped back, she shouldn’t impose herself in someone else’s house...

After all, pursuing a male idol can’t be rushed.

Xiang Qichen hung up the call and came over, hearing the rustling sounds from the closet, he poked his head in to take a look, seeing Zhou Huaiyi tangled in clothes, he stopped at the closet door, raised an eyebrow, and asked: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Huaiyi raised her head from the pile of clothes, smoothed her messy hair, turned her head to look at him: "Ah... packing up to go back to the dorms."

Xiang Qichen, hearing this, furrowed his forehead, stepped in: "Back to the dorms?"

"Yeah." Zhou Huaiyi shook a wrinkled piece of clothing, folded it neatly into her suitcase, "We’ve swapped back, it’s not appropriate for me to stay here."

Xiang Qichen was displeased, his eyes darkened, and he suddenly said: "There’s a schedule tomorrow, are you planning to go on strike as my assistant?"

"Strike?" Zhou Huaiyi looked confused, furrowing her brows, "Wasn’t being an assistant just a cover for when we swapped souls?"

Xiang Qichen looked down at her, his gaze deep and steady: "Who said that?"
