Qi Le was so happy to "check in" that he didn't want to stay for even a moment longer. However, he felt that he couldn't be too obvious. He packed up the cat's things first, looked at the time, and pretended to ask, "My stuff hasn't been properly packed yet but it's already over 9 o'clock now. It's quite late. Why don't I... go over tomorrow?" He looked up at him and threatened inside, don't you dare nod your head. Laozi just went over in the early morning a few days ago, so time is definitely not a problem!

Naturally, Gu Bai, who knew him like the back of his hand, understood what he really wanted. In fact, he himself could hardly wait to carry Qi Le straight home but he couldn't reveal the truth. He smiled and picked up the cat's stuff, "Alright then, I'll take the cat first." He picked up the cat, held it in his arms but didn't trap it hard, and turned to leave. He stared at a certain cat and opened the bedroom door tentatively, hinting that they were about to leave.

Damn it, why did I pretend?! Now, I'm done for... Qi Le lamented in his heart, got up sadly to send them and thought to himself, it's okay. Big deal, it's just one more night. Anyways, I've already adapted to it, unless those two do something even more wild...

Seeing that he was about to be carried out of the door by this crazy creature, Xiao Quan quickly jumped down and ran over to Qi Le again. It pawed at Qi Le, asking to be picked up and rubbed against his neck. "Meow, meow, meow~!"

These past few days, its meals have finally gone back to normal. It no longer had to live those days of uncertainty. It certainly wouldn't leave!

Qi Le and Gu Bai looked at the cat at the same time and were both very satisfied with its performance. Qi Le held his son in his arms, thinking that this was the pivotal moment to fan the flames. He looked up at Gu Bai and said, "Why don't I... go with you?"

Gu Bai stroked the cat and graciously said, "Mmm, pack up your stuff then." 

Qi Le was beyond happy. He casually found a few clothes and threw them into his bag. But then he began to worry. He didn't know the subjects he was studying. What should he do ah?!

Gu Bai looked at him, "What's wrong?"

"It's because I lost my memory," Qi Le sighed. "So I don't know which subjects I failed and now I only know two of the subjects..."

Gu Bai thought for a moment, "Do you have a computer?" 

"Yes." Qi Le paused, suddenly feeling enlightened. He quickly turned it on, went on the Internet, searched for the university web-page and clicked the login button uneasily. But then, he was instantly relieved and thought to himself that it was so amazing that the password and username was saved!

He entered the student dashboard, opened the exam results section, and silently looked at the scores. His heart shattered into a million pieces. Damn it, did Zheng Xiaoyuan also peek at Ning Xiao during the exam? Could it be that as long as Ning Xiao handed in his papers, he would follow suit? The subjects that he failed were all either 30 or 40 marks, while those that he passed were at an all time low – none of them were close to 70 marks! And what the hell was "human resource management?" Laozi studied design before this, okay?!

He lamented as he wrote down the subjects that he failed and began rummaging through his room. But after a long time of searching, he found only three books. He blew up at once. Fucking hell! Was Zheng Xiaoyuan thinking of dropping out?! Even his books were all gone!

Gu Bai saw from his lack of expression that he was angry and suggested, "Why don't we wait for your older brother to come back and ask him?" 

"No," Qi Le placed the books and computer in his bag. "He'll definitely come back with my brother-in-law. Let's go, I'll ask him tomorrow."
