Hearing the knock on the door, Qin Ming was startled for a moment, then a look of joy appeared on his face as he happily walked forward and opened the door.
Dugu Yan and Xiao Lan, who had thought Ye Qiu had arrived, suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice from outside the door.
"Haha… Qin Ming, how is it? I hope we didn't disturb you."
"How could that be? I've already finished explaining everything I needed to," Qin Ming said with a smile. "Teachers, and my junior brothers and sisters, please come in quickly!"
"Alright, then we won't be polite," Flender patted his clothes and strode into the VIP room. Yu Xiaogang, Zhao Wuji, and the others followed close behind.
Dugu Yan, Yu Feng, and the others looked at the newcomers with curiosity. Could these unremarkable-looking people actually be Teacher Qin Ming's teachers?!
"Is that… Uncle?!"
Yu Tianheng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, was also disturbed by the sudden commotion. He opened his eyes and saw a familiar figure, both aloof and somewhat self-conscious.
After pondering for a moment, he immediately recognized Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Tianheng watched him impassively. Yu Xiaogang, who had just sat down, was already surveying the members of the Royal Fight Team.
Looking at Xiao Lan, whose mouth was full, he merely glanced over her, thinking she didn't look very intelligent.
When he saw Yu Tianheng in the corner, their gazes met. Yu Xiaogang's expression changed, and a flood of memories rushed over him.
On the other side, Dugu Yan's gaze turned cold. Looking at Ma Hongjun, who was staring at her and Xiao Lan with a lecherous gaze, her pretty face slowly filled with frost, revealing a hint of killing intent.
Xiao Lan also noticed the uncomfortable gaze. Her puffed-up cheeks, 'fiercely' glared at Ma Hongjun.
"Fatty! Watch yourself," Oscar immediately pushed Ma Hongjun, who looked like he was about to drool.
Tang San looked at Xiao Lan, frowning. He always felt a sense of familiarity, as well as a faint, almost imperceptible pressure.
"Gulp~" Xiao Lan's eyes widened. She had already sensed that Ye Qiu was at the door, and the food in her mouth was quickly swallowed. She immediately took off, dashing out.
"Xiao Lan…"
Just as Dugu Yan was surprised, Qin Ming's surprised voice came from the doorway.
"Ye Qiu?! How are you with Dean Flander and them?"
"Oh, I just happened to run into them on the way," Ye Qiu said with a smile, and then, under Qin Ming's strange gaze, he entered the room with the three girls.
"Brother~!"
As soon as he entered the room, a fiery red figure had already pounced over.
Zhu Zhuqing was startled and was about to act, but Ye Qiu stopped her.
And Ning Rongrong, hearing that sweet, childish voice, a sly glint flashed in her green eyes. She immediately let go of Ye Qiu's arm and quickly stood in front of him.
Xiao Lan, who was too fast, was directly intercepted midway by Ning Rongrong and hung onto her, rubbing her small face against her constantly.
"Ah~! You naughty Xiao Lan, you've messed up my makeup!" Ning Rongrong tilted her face back, somewhat disgusted by the wet-mouthed Xiao Lan, her face also showing some surprise. So, this was what Ye Qiu meant by Xiao Lan changing color.
After Xiao Lan twisted her body twice, she also noticed something was amiss with those two round, soft points. She opened her eyes and looked at the beautiful face in front of her.
"Ah! Sister Rongrong?! You, you quickly let go of Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan wants Brother to hug her…"
After seeing clearly, she was only stunned for a moment before continuing to struggle, letting go of the two arms that were hugging Ning Rongrong's neck and reaching out towards Ye Qiu behind her.
"You ungrateful little wolf, I missed you so much, why is Ye Qiu the only one in your heart!" Ning Rongrong scolded with a laugh, kneading Xiao Lan's cheek, her own face burning hot, half from anger and half from embarrassment.
Xiao Lan's continuous wriggling made her experience the sensation of being crushed. She secretly grumbled about her own lack of progress, realizing that even this girl Xiao Lan had surpassed her so much.
"Xiao Lan isn't an ungrateful wolf, it's just that Sister Rongrong has to be after Brother, I'll hug you later."
"Alright, Rongrong, stop teasing her," Ye Qiu chuckled, taking Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan also grinned, made a face at Ning Rongrong, and coiled around Ye Qiu.
"Hmph!" Ning Rongrong snorted coldly, already well aware of Xiao Lan's tendency to cling to whoever provided for her.
Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, who were following behind Ye Qiu, also looked on in surprise at Xiao Lan, who was wrapped around Ye Qiu and causing him to show a doting expression.
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't understand how this could be the golden Blue Silver Grass she had watered back then. In the blink of an eye, it had grown so big and was even trying to snatch her man…
Xiao Wu, however, could feel that faint sense of familiarity.
Xiao Lan, leaning on Ye Qiu's shoulder, finally noticed Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu behind Ye Qiu.
"Sister Zhuqing and Sister Xiao Wu?" Xiao Lan tilted her head, calling out with some uncertainty.
"…" Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, not reacting immediately. She nodded somewhat blankly, a slight smile appearing on her face.
"Xiao, Xiao Lan, hello."
"Hello," Xiao Wu leaned forward, reaching out to poke her chubby cheek, smiling widely.
Xiao Lan was also very curious about this Xiao Wu, whom Ye Qiu would often murmur about in his sleep.
"Teacher Qin Ming, I'm really sorry," Ye Qiu turned his head, apologizing.
"It's fine, Xiao Lan has been a great help to us during this time." Qin Ming put away the strange expression on his face, laughed heartily, and closed the door. "Quickly find a seat."
"Mm!" Ye Qiu nodded slightly, holding Xiao Lan, and smiled faintly at Dugu Yan, who had stood up and was looking at him.
Dugu Yan, however, had no time to pay attention to him at the moment.
Her gaze had been drawn to Ning Rongrong and the other two girls. Looking at the three girls, each with their own strengths and unique characteristics, a sense of crisis arose in Dugu Yan's heart.
Ning Rongrong also raised an eyebrow at Dugu Yan and followed behind Ye Qiu.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, on the other hand, looked at her with some curiosity.
"Holy cow! Oslo, Oslo, look how Ye Qiu seems to be involved with those few girls… Yan Zi's expression isn't right!"
Yu Feng looked at Ye Qiu and the others walking towards Dugu Yan with a look of astonishment.
"Stop pushing, I'm looking!" Oslo had also noticed that the atmosphere was a bit off.
The Shi Mo and Shi Mo brothers' eyes also lit up; they had never seen such a good show.
Under the shocked gazes of Oscar and the others, Dugu Yan quickly walked to Ye Qiu's side and held his arm.
"Ye Qiu, come sit over here."
Ning Rongrong's expression changed, and she was about to pull Ye Qiu, but Zhu Zhuqing stopped her.
"Alright," Ye Qiu nodded, sitting down very naturally beside Dugu Yan.
