"You, you, who said anything about taking you to meet my parents? Such a narcissist," Shen Yiran said, her face turning red as she realized what Lin Tian had been talking about.
"What narcissist?" At that moment, Shen Mengyi came over with her plate in hand, having just overheard her sister calling Lin Tian a narcissist, she couldn’t help but ask.
"Sister, don’t bother with him, hmph..." Seeing her sister arrive, Shen Yiran glared fiercely at Lin Tian.
In response, Lin Tian just touched his nose and chuckled. "Who’s a narcissist? Yiran was just complimenting me on how handsome I am. She said I have a face that could launch a thousand ships, that makes everyone fall in love the moment they see me, and flowers bloom—so striking that even cars blow their tires when they pass by."
"..." Shen Mengyi, listening to Lin Tian boasting, didn’t believe a word, wondering if her sister would ever say such things. This guy really was quite full of himself.
"What are your plans for the National Day holiday?" Shen Mengyi asked, ignoring Lin Tian’s display of narcissism.
"..." Hearing Shen Mengyi ask about his plans, Lin Tian couldn’t help but silently criticize that the two sisters were really alike, even asking exactly the same questions, and both needing to ask once.
"No plans." Lin Tian said, boredly picking at the food in his bowl.
"How come you have no plans? The school is giving us a nine-day vacation, don’t tell me you’re planning to stay on campus the whole time?" Shen Mengyi expressed her confusion after hearing Lin Tian’s reply.
"Yeah." Lin Tian showed a bright smile and suddenly suggested, "How about I go to your house then?"
"You want to come to my house?" Shen Mengyi was stunned by Lin Tian’s suggestion, while Shen Yiran, standing by, couldn’t help but roll her eyes upon hearing him. This jerk, isn’t he blatantly flirting with my sister?
"Do you really think so?" Shen Mengyi, unaware that her sister already invited Lin Tian over, looked at him seriously and asked.
"Hmm, I did think so, would that be inconvenient?" Lin Tian asked with a feigned serious expression. "If it’s inconvenient, then never mind."
"No, it’s not inconvenient at all, of course, you’re welcome to come over." Shen Mengyi rushed to assure him, and for some reason, she felt a small thrill of excitement when Lin Tian suggested visiting her home.
"You said it, oh, I’m really going to your place then." Lin Tian had to stop himself from laughing at Shen Mengyi’s nervous demeanor. Discover more stories at freewebnovel
"Mm." Shen Mengyi nodded.
"It’s just you at home, right, no one else?" Lin Tian suddenly asked.
"Well, there’s also Yiran," Shen Mengyi replied without really understanding why Lin Tian was asking, instinctively answering.
"She doesn’t count, I mean besides her, are your mom and dad going to be there?" Lin Tian continued, winking incessantly at Shen Yiran on the side, signaling to her to keep quiet.
Shen Yiran, hearing Lin Tian’s words that she ’doesn’t count’, felt like her lungs would explode with anger. What did he mean by that? What does ’she doesn’t count’ imply?
As if you’re the one who counts? You bastard.
"Oh, my parents will be there," Shen Mengyi, still kept in the dark, followed Lin Tian’s train of thought.
"It might be a bit awkward if your uncle and aunt are there," Lin Tian suddenly started to appear troubled.
When Shen Yiran heard Lin Tian say these words, her eyes widened, and she almost burst into laughter. This bastard was actually playing such tricks.
She looked at her own sister, who showed no signs of tipping her off, but instead wore a look of anticipation for the drama to unfold.
"What’s wrong with that? Don’t worry, they won’t say anything," as usual, this echoed what Shen Yiran had just said.
"It’s not that, I mean, what if your uncle and aunt think I’m your boyfriend?" Lin Tian asked innocently.
"Ah..." Shen Mengyi’s face turned to shock, flushing red as she stammered, "Well, I’ll explain it to them clearly, don’t worry about that."
"Pfft... Hahaha, sis, you’ve been fooled by him, it’s just too funny." Shen Yiran watched as Shen Mengyi’s face blushed with embarrassment and she couldn’t contain her laughter any longer. She teased her sister, "He was just flirting with me like this earlier, hmph, so despicable."
"..." Hearing this, Shen Mengyi’s face turned even redder, and she looked at Lin Tian with eyes full of shy anger, but in the end, she said nothing.
"Hehe... so it’s settled then, I’ll go to your place for the holiday, hang out with you guys, and you have to take care of me, don’t let me starve on the streets," Lin Tian said with a laugh.
"..." Both girls gave him a stern look upon hearing that. How could this jerk speak like that? What does he mean we have to take care of him? Somehow, the words just felt so awkward.
It’s as if we’re supposed to be sugar-mamas to some pretty boy.
The next day, Lin Tian was still sleeping in the dormitory when Shen Yiran suddenly arrived, knocking on the door and waking him. "Lin Tian, get up quickly, our flight is at eleven in the morning, we’re going to be late," she said.
"What time is it now?" Lin Tian opened his bleary eyes, mumbling.
He had sent He Qianqian and Bu Mengting off in the car the previous afternoon. Then he played with Feng Jiabao and the others until late at night, only going to bed around four or five in the morning. He had only slept for a few hours and was now feeling drowsy.
"It’s already past nine. We need to pack up and rush to the airport, they won’t wait for us, will they?" Shen Yiran said, rolling her eyes.
"Alright, I’m getting up. You go out first, I’ll brush my teeth and wash my face, then come out," Lin Tian said, yawning.
Soon after, he got up from the bed, and Lin Tao and Guo Rong in the dormitory were awakened by the noise. After they saw Shen Yiran leave, they immediately started gossiping.
"Whoa, Lin Tian, you’re really doing well for yourself. When did you manage to score Shen Yiran? You’ve already reached the stage of meeting the parents. You’ve kept it so secret that we only found out now," they said.
"..." Seeing the two guys gossip like this, Lin Tian couldn’t help but roll his eyes. "Enough with that; it’s not what you think. I’m just going there to hang out."
"Yeah, like we’d believe that?" The two of them showed expressions of disdain. This guy had some nerve, being caught in the act by his friends and still denying it.
And you, a guy, going to a girl’s house just to ’hang out’? Who would believe that? Nobody, that’s who—at least, I don’t believe it.
"If you don’t believe it, never mind," Lin Tian decided it was wiser to remain silent rather than explain as they were likely to twist his words even more the more he tried to clarify.

After freshening up, Lin Tian packed a few changes of clothes and left the dormitory. At the school gate, he saw Shen Mengyi and Shen Yiran waiting for him.
