It's been a month.
Lin Lianxi was walking home, feeling a gaze on his back that came and went.
That man had been following him for a full month.
Every day, Lin Lianxi could sense his presence.
The phone in his pocket buzzed. Lin Lianxi knew it was a harassing message from the stalker behind him.
[Baby, you're so cute. You're so cute I want to lock you up, so you can be cute for me alone.]
[You're so naughty, baby. How can you smile at someone else? Bad babies deserve to be locked up.]
[Baby, don't walk so fast. You might fall, and I'll worry about you.]
[Baby...]
He hurried home, trying to shut that sticky gaze out beyond his front door.
Then he opened the door and saw a bunch of gorgeous roses in the living room.
He spotted the card on the roses.
[Darling:
A gift for you. Do you like it? I tidied up the house. Aren't I a good boy? (^w^)]
Lin Lianxi left the roses where they were and ran out of the house.
.
Lin Lianxi moved back into the school dormitory.
Since all the other dorm rooms were full, he was assigned a room in a different department. As it turned out, it was a blessing in disguise. He got a room for two, and his only roommate, Qu Yanran, was a very friendly and warmhearted guy.
With a roommate around, Lin Lianxi no longer felt that sticky gaze, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Still, there was an account on his phone that he couldn't get rid of no matter what. Sometimes he would lose consciousness, the world around him would suddenly go dark, and his lips would quietly swell at moments when he felt dazed...
It was fine. His roommate was a good person and would always stay by his side. Even when a fortune-teller said he was surrounded by the aura of death, his roommate, no, his boyfriend, said he'd always be there for him.
.
Finals were approaching, and Lin Lianxi couldn't get a seat in the library, so he had to study in his dorm. But the room next door was too noisy, and he couldn't concentrate, so he decided to go for a walk.
He found a phone.
It looked exactly like his wonderful roommate's phone, but its lock screen was a profile photo of Lin Lianxi.
He had a feeling he knew what was coming. Nervously, he entered his own birthday, and the phone unlocked.
In the photo album, there were pictures of him sleeping, just waking up, angry, happy, gloomy, irritable, in profile, from behind... His photos were everywhere.
Lin Lianxi started trembling.
The next moment, he was embraced.
Ah, got you.
Bonus scene
Lin Lianxi was locked in a dark room.
Qu Yanran: "Nobody can find you, and don't even think about getting your phone..."
Lin Lianxi: "That's great. Now nothing can distract me from studying. Could you bring in my study materials, please? Thanks."
Qu Yanran: "..."
Something felt off, but he brought in the study materials anyway.
#Looks like a gloomy, deranged obsessive, but is actually a lighthearted goofball
Theme: Even a crazy person should study hard.
