A condo near the office definitely isn't cheap… Gu Xiao Xiao thought about it and shook her head with a smile.

"There's no need for me to go. I am good staying in the dorm."

"Good my @ss!" Chu Xiao Xi slapped Gu Xiao Xiao's head." I know what you are thinking. I am not letting you live there for free. If you go, you'll have to help me do the chores."

"Chu Xiao Xi, I cannot continue to take advantage of you."

Gu Xiao Xiao looked at Chu Xiao Xi with a hasty heart. Gu Xiao Xiao was very aware of how much Chu Xiao Xi took care of her over these past three years. No matter where she went to eat or to play, Chu Xiao Xi would always bring Gu Xiao Xiao. To Chu Xiao Xi, these things may be insignificant gestures, but they were meaningful gestures to Gu Xiao Xiao.

"When have you taken advantage of me?" Chu Xiao Xi was a little stunned by what Gu Xiao Xiao said. She wracked her brain before coming to a conclusion.

"Gu Xiao Xiao, your stupidity… hurts me."

Chu Xiao Xi moved back into the country three years ago and has never publicly revealed herself. Therefore, very few people learned of the news of her return. Because the moment she reveals her identity as the daughter of the Chu family, she wouldn't be living as casually as now.

Growing up, everyone around her was using her for their own benefits. After a while, Chu Xiao Xi stopped caring about them.

To come to University B after moving back and to befriend Gu Xiao Xiao, she wanted to conceal her identity. Chu Xiao Xi was actually rather cautious else Gu Xiao Xiao would've found out who she really was a long time ago.

Gu Xiao Xiao's definition of "taking advantage" was for things Chu Xiao Xi never cared about. Plus, nowadays, there weren't many people like Gu Xiao Xiao, who didn't want to take advantage of anyone.

"If those things were you taking advantage of me, then I hope you get scared when I really let you take advantage in the future." Chu Xiao Xi smiled meaningfully. "Then it's settled. I really do need someone's help and it has to be you."

Without giving Gu Xiao Xiao any chance to decline, by the morning of the next day, people had come to help Chu Xiao Xi and Gu Xiao Xiao move.

"I have already told the school counselors and the university has accepted our request. There's no need to linger. Let's go!" Chu Xiao Xi's attitude was firm as she dragged Gu Xiao Xiao away from the dorm. Downstairs, they ran into Mu Yun Fan.

"Gu Xiao Xiao."

After their encounter at the hotel last time, it's been nearly a month since these two spoke. They never exchanged messages nor calls. They lived their own lives as if they didn't know each other.

Mu Yun Fan looked at the movers and softly asked, "You are moving out?"

"Why do you care?" Chu Xiao Xi answered him first, "Just focus on your fiancé. Don't get any ideas with my Gu Xiao Xiao."

"Yes, I'm moving out." Gu Xiao Xiao thought about it and answered his question. "I have other things to attend to. Bye."

Such a simple exchange that basically was just them walking by each other. Mu Yun Fan startling watched Gu Xiao Xiao walk further and further away. A cloudy fog appeared beneath his eyes.

After eating lunch outside, they arrived at the "small condo" Chu Xiao Xi had mentioned. Gu Xiao Xiao felt like she got scammed.

It was a nearly 200 square meter new condo. Thinking about the housing prices in this area made Gu Xiao Xiao's head hurt. Plus, she felt like this place looked a little familiar…

The place had already been cleaned up. All the necessary household items had been prepared as well. Gu Xiao Xiao put away her own things and sat on the couch in a daze. When Chu Xiao Xi pushed open her bedroom door, all she could see was an expressionless Chu Xiao Xiao, who was looking over to her with much blame.
