Ignoring Xia Shangzhou's exclamation, Lin Jiage continued, "In comparison, the two of you are much worse off. One of you hasn't found a girl that he likes yet …"
Lin Jiage purposely emphasized on the word 'can', and after seeing Xia Shangzhou's frozen expression, he slowly turned his gaze back to Lu Benlai and said, "… The first one is someone who finally found a girl he likes, but it's already been a semester, and he still hasn't gotten her number."
Hearing Lin Jiage's words, Lu Benlai's expression turned as stiff as Xia Shangzhou's.
Looking at the two silent figures in the video call, Lin Jiage's mood suddenly lightened up. "Right, I almost forgot to tell you that Yaoyao helped me change my bedsheets, undress me, and even helped me put on my clothes …"
Lu Benlai mechanically turned his head around to look at Xia Shangzhou, and in the next second, he unceremoniously scolded him, "Who asked you to spout such a cheap mouth? Why did you come up with such a conclusion out of nowhere? Are you satisfied now? You must have been tortured, right? "
"I …" Xia Shangzhou wanted to retort, but he only managed to get one word out before he raised his hand and made a fake gesture to slap his own face. "… That's right. Who asked you to come up with a conclusion when you had nothing better to do? Are you satisfied now? You must have been tortured, right? "
On the other end of the video call, Lin Jiage didn't seem to have any intention of letting the matter rest. After the two of them were done speaking, he continued, "Oh, there's one more thing. I'm injured … So, as my roommates, you should pay me a visit at my place, right? I've already thought of the gifts you should bring. Old Xia, a nut gift bag, and Old Lu, a cheesecake …"
Xia Shangzhou: "Eh? Boss, when did you fall in love with eating these things? "
Lin Jiage: "It's not me, it's Yaoyao …"
Lu Benlai: "The heck! Grandson, can you please shut up? Every time you open your mouth, you implicate me. It was just a moment ago that I was tortured, and now you're making me eat dog food. I really want to beat you to death, you unfilial bastard …"
Before Lu Benlai could finish his words, Lin Jiage had already cleared his throat and replied, "Oh …"
He had barely uttered a single word when Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou immediately chimed in.
Lu Benlai: "Boss, my phone is out of battery. I'll hang up first."
Xia Shangzhou: "Boss, I just remembered that I still have work to do. I have to work overtime."
After which, before Lin Jiage could say anything, the two of them left a "Goodbye, Boss. Goodnight, Boss" before cutting off the video call.

After falling asleep, Shi Yao had no idea how long she had slept for before she awoke from thirst.
With her eyes half-closed, she climbed out of bed, walked out of the bedroom, and headed for the dining room.
In a daze, she poured herself a glass of water and gulped it down. Then she staggered toward the bedroom.
The door to her room and Lin Jiage's room was right next to each other.
As she was simply too sleepy, her eyelids kept drooping as she made her way back to her bedroom. When she reached the door, she didn't even bother to check whether it was her bedroom or not before she pushed it open, closed it, and walked in.
Shi Yao walked up to the bed and fell headfirst onto it.
The air conditioner was turned on, so the temperature in the room was a little low. Thus, Shi Yao began searching for a blanket while she slept.
She fumbled around for a long time but did not manage to find the blanket. Instead, she felt something soft and warm …
