So shameless, he invited Fan Binbin to live with him.

Zhou Yan looked at Fan Binbin's exquisite profile, holding her breath and trying not to let her mind wander.

"There's something I forgot to tell you," Zhou Yan said, sitting opposite him on the stool.

"What's wrong?" Fan Binbin calmed himself down and tried to composed himself.

"When I got back, I found that the door to your room was locked, and I didn't have the key."

Just as Zhou Yan had guessed, Fan Binbin's expression changed drastically, and he panicked instantly, "What?"

"So, do you have a spare key?" Zhou Yan could tell from Fan Binbin's expression that he didn't, otherwise he wouldn't be so flustered.

"No," Fan Binbin almost cried, "I keep my keys and wallet together."

"I should have left a key outside," Fan Binbin thought, but ultimately didn't do it.

It's too dangerous for a girl living alone to leave her key outside the door. What if someone finds out?

We must be wary.

"Don't worry too much. Ask the landlord tomorrow if they have a spare key. If all else fails, you can call a locksmith," Zhou Yan reassured him.

"That's all we can do," Fan Binbin sighed.

"But where am I going to stay tonight?" Fan Binbin looked up at the clock on the wall. It wasn't even eleven o'clock yet, and it would only be midnight after the IV drip was finished. He couldn't possibly sleep on the streets.

Fan Binbin glanced at Zhou Yan across from her. "I wonder if I could stay at his place for the night?"

"Oh my god, what am I thinking?" Fan Binbin's ears turned bright red instantly.

Zhou Yan was unaware of Fan Binbin's subtle thoughts. Seeing that the other person was somewhat silent, she took the initiative to start a conversation, "Your accent doesn't sound like a local? Are you from another province too?"

"Yes, I'm from Shandong," Fan Binbin nodded.

"You're from Shandong too?" Zhou Yan suddenly perked up, feigning excitement. "Where in Shandong are you from? I'm from Jizhou!"

"You're from Jeju?" Fan Binbin immediately snapped out of her daze. "What a coincidence! We're even from the same hometown!"

"So it must be fate," Zhou Yan attributed it all to fate.

"Yes, that means we're destined to be together," Fan Binbin nodded in agreement.

"Where in Shandong are you from?" Zhou Yan continued to ask.

Although Fan Binbin was a household name in her past life, she is still a nobody now.

Therefore, Zhou Yan had to pretend that he knew nothing.

"My home is in Qingdao, and my ancestral home is in Gangcheng, so I didn't recognize your accent at first." Shandong is a very large region with significant cultural differences. Fan Binbin is from Jiaozhou, while Zhou Yan is from southwestern Shandong, which belongs to the Huaihai region.

"Our dialect here is more like the Central Plains dialect, which is somewhat similar to the southern Henan accent, so it's normal that you can't tell the difference."

The two chatted back and forth, becoming increasingly familiar with each other.

Fan Binbin trusted Zhou Yan completely, answering all his questions without any concealment.

It's understandable, really. A seventeen-year-old girl living alone in a foreign land, without parents or friends, all by herself.

When I was sick and most helpless, and needed someone to take care of me the most, I suddenly met this person who was not only handsome and kind to me, but also from my hometown!

Can we not rely on it?

This experience is something to remember forever.

Whether it was the effect of the medicine or because of chatting with Zhou Yan, Fan Binbin felt much better in her stomach, and her mood improved as well, allowing her to talk freely.

Zhou Yan looked at the other person with tender eyes, unable to hide the admiration in her gaze.

It was a genuine, heartfelt liking.

Zhou Yan is really attracted to Fan Binbin's looks.

Especially Fan Binbin after she grew up, she was truly beautiful.

Lu Xun once said: When someone is unusually attentive to you, they definitely have ulterior motives.

Zhou Yan is an example of this.

What is he after?

Naturally, it's Fan Binbin's love and her body.

Zhou Yan admits he's despicable, but when he meets a beauty like Fan Binbin, he might as well be despicable!

He's not a saint; he doesn't have that much self-control.

Before I knew it, both IV drips had been finished.

"I'll go call the doctor," Zhou Yan said, looking up at the nearly empty IV drip and standing up from his seat.

"Yes," Fan Binbin and Zhou Yan became familiar with each other after some conversation, and the previous embarrassment disappeared.

Zhou Yan notified the doctor on duty and paid the money to the other party!

"Alright, you can go back now," the on-duty doctor said, removing the needle from Fan Binbin's hand and pulling down the IV drip.

"Doctor, is there anything I should pay attention to, especially regarding my diet?" Zhou Yan asked hurriedly while the doctor was still there.

"Don't eat cold food, don't eat spicy food, eat three meals a day regularly, and drink more porridge," the doctor instructed.

"Okay, thank you."

"Your boyfriend is so good to you, staying with you so late," the on-duty doctor said, unaware of the relationship between Zhou Yan and Fan Binbin.

But these two are so good-looking, one handsome and the other beautiful, it's hard to believe they're not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Fan Binbin's face immediately flushed red, and she looked at Zhou Yan somewhat helplessly.

Zhou Yan didn't explain, his face full of smiles, seemingly tacitly agreeing.

"Let's go," Zhou Yan said, carrying a water glass, and left with Fan Binbin.

Fan Binbin was secretly pleased to see this, and was very happy.

"What does he mean?"

"Do you like me?"

"But he would make a good boyfriend."

If he asked me to be his girlfriend, should I say yes immediately, or hold back a bit?

"Oh dear, why are you thinking such nonsense again?" Fan Binbin's face showed a mix of shyness and joy, and confusion, her expression quite varied.

"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Yan's voice rang in my ears.

"It's nothing!" Fan Binbin's heart tightened, and she quickly changed the subject, "How much did the medical bills cost? I'll pay you back later!"

"Don't mention money, that's too formal," Zhou Yan waved his hand, saying that asking for money would change the meaning of the gesture. "If you really want to thank me, just treat me to a meal."

"Eating is definitely not a problem, but the money still needs to be paid back."

"That's not very nice of you. You're trying to distance yourself from me," Zhou Yan said with a serious expression, looking angry.

"No," Fan Binbin quickly waved her hand, "I'll listen to you!"

"That's more like it," Zhou Yan said with a smile.

The two walked and talked, and soon returned upstairs.

A problem she couldn't avoid arose: Fan Binbin's apartment door was locked, and she couldn't get in.

We could either go to a hotel, stay out overnight, or spend the night at Zhou Yan's house.

"If you don't mind, you can come and stay here for the night," Zhou Yan said, looking at the bewildered Fan Binbin.

"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Fan Binbin was both tempted and hesitant.

"If you have any concerns, I can sleep on the floor in the living room," Zhou Yan said, seeing that the other person was interested, and offered another way out.

If the other party didn't want to come, they would definitely refuse outright, instead of hesitating like this.

Hesitation indicates that you are interested but have concerns.

"No need," Fan Binbin shook his head, "It's just that I feel like I'm troubling you too much!"

"Let's go," Zhou Yan said, not giving the other person a chance to refuse, and took her hand to lead her into the house.
