Chapter 316: Sick?
After tossing Luo Wenjie back into the dorm room, Chen Fan turned around and was about to leave.
Ma Xiaoshuai chased after him, "Hey, you're not going to leave me alone to share the dorm with Brother Jie, are you?"
Chen Fan: "What's up?"
Ma Xiaoshuai: "Big brother, he's drunk."
Chen Fan: "So what if he's drunk? It's not like he's sick. Can't you take care of him by yourself?"
After saying that, he waved his hand. "I'm leaving."
"Damn it. You're ruthless."
Ma Xiaoshuai stood at the door and flipped him the middle finger.
In fact, Chen Fan didn't take Brother Jie's situation seriously at all.
In his view, romantic relationships among college students were a dime a dozen, with breakups happening every day for all sorts of reasons.
Every breakup was a growth experience for both parties.
People had to be responsible for their words and actions.
He wasn't Brother Jie's father, so he couldn't always teach him how to handle relationships.
Early in the morning, Chen Fan went directly to the airport with Su Ruochu as planned, and then headed straight to Hainan.
At the airport, he received a call from Ma Xiaoshuai.
As soon as the call connected, Ma Xiaoshuai's cursing voice came through the phone.
Chen Fan quickly held the phone away.
"Where are you?"
"The airport."
"What are you doing at the airport?"
"Going on a trip with my wife."
"Damn you, you old bastard. You're going on a trip with your girlfriend, leaving me alone in the dorm to take care of Brother Jie..."
Chen Fan smiled and asked, "How's Brother Jie doing? Is he awake yet?"
Mentioning this made Ma Xiaoshuai even angrier.
"Damn it, you have no idea how much trouble this guy caused last night, crying and making a fuss, even throwing up once... I didn't sleep well at all."
Chen Fan helped take Su Ruochu's suitcase and joked with a laugh.
"Great. After this, Brother Jie will have to be grateful to you."
"Screw you. I don't need that."
"When he woke up this morning, I asked him, and Brother Jie said he couldn't remember anything from last night. He has no recollection of going to the girls' dorm building."
Chen Fan smiled and asked, "As long as he's okay. What are you two planning to do?"
Ma Xiaoshuai: "We're having breakfast together. After that, I'm not dealing with him anymore. I'm going to see my girlfriend off, and as for Brother Jie, he can go wherever he wants to recover."
Chen Fan looked up at the time.
"Alright. I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I need to check in."
Ma Xiaoshuai: "Damn it. You sneakily went on a trip without telling us, you little brat. You've got some nerve."
Chen Fan gave a wry smile: "This time is different. This is my wife and my first trip together, so I have to take it seriously."
"Next time, next time we get a chance, I'll call you and Song Linlin to join us. I'll treat you, that should work, right?"
Ma Xiaoshuai grunted a couple of times, "Have a good time, and I hope the hotels within a radius of ten kilometers don't sell condoms."
"Damn it. You're cursing me way too harshly."
The two laughed and joked for a bit before finally hanging up.
Chen Fan pulled his suitcase and waved at Su Ruochu, who was queuing ahead, with a smile.
This trip's itinerary was carefully prepared by Su Ruochu, including which hotels to stay at, the travel route, what good food to eat, Su Ruochu had written more than ten pages just for the itinerary.
In his previous life, Chen Fan was a poor kid who couldn't afford to take Su Ruochu on trips.
Although Su Ruochu had never complained, it had always been a regret in Chen Fan's heart.
This time, Chen Fan finally had the opportunity to make up for the regret from his previous life, so he took this date very seriously.
Before leaving, he had arranged all his work, and for the next three days, he would not answer any work calls, focusing solely on going crazy with Su Ruochu.
Seeing the blissful smile on Su Ruochu's face, Chen Fan felt that the trip was worthwhile.
The only regret was that the original travel plan was for three days, with them scheduled to fly back on the fourth day in the morning.
However, on the third day in the morning, Su Ruochu received a call from her family.
Her mother, Lin Wanxiu, had somehow guessed something and kept asking her daughter if she really was participating in extracurricular practice.
If Su Ruochu didn't tell the truth, Lin Wanxiu said she would drive to Yunhai University herself to pick her up.
In the end, Su Ruochu had no choice but to admit the truth that she was with Chen Fan.
Well, this really angered the mother now.
On the other end of the phone, she directly scolded Su Ruochu harshly, shouting for her to come home immediately.
Chen Fan was standing aside, able to hear the voice coming from the receiver.
After hanging up, Su Ruochu looked at him somewhat embarrassed.
"Sorry. I..."
Chen Fan shook his head lightly, cutting off what Su Ruochu was about to say.
"Since your family knows now, let's just go back."
"I'll book the plane tickets right away."
Chen Fan took out his phone and went to the balcony to make a call.
Shortly after, he came back and explained, "I booked the 11 AM flight. We'll get back in the afternoon. But we can make it home before evening."
Su Ruochu nodded, gently pulling Chen Fan to sit down, then leaning on his shoulder.
"Sorry. I had planned a three-day trip..."
Chen Fan smiled, "As long as you're happy, I don't mind where we are."
"Oh, we still have a few hours before the flight. Why don't we go to one more place?"
Su Ruochu looked at him curiously.
"Where? There are still several spots left on the itinerary."
Chen Fan smiled mysteriously.
"It's a secret for now. Pack your things, we'll take a taxi later."
So after Su Ruochu packed her suitcase, the two checked out of the hotel.
Outside, they hailed a taxi, and after getting in, Chen Fan told the driver, "Sir, please take us to Tianya Haijiao."
On this island, saying Tianya Haijiao could only mean one place.
As soon as Chen Fan said those words, the corners of Su Ruochu's mouth turned up slightly, understanding his intention.
An hour later, the two finally arrived at the famous Tianya Haijiao that they had studied in textbooks.
Chen Fan helped Su Ruochu take a few photos, then asked a passing tourist to take a picture of them together.
Chen Fan held Su Ruochu's little hand and said very solemnly,
"In this life, no matter how far, I won't let you leave me."
"You can only be my woman. Deal?"
Su Ruochu's face turned slightly red as she hugged Chen Fan happily.
"Mmm."
They flew back to Yunhai at noon, then headed straight to the bus station after leaving the airport.
After seeing Su Ruochu onto the bus, Chen Fan returned to the university alone.
He called Ma Xiaoshuai, but the little guy had already gone home.
When he asked about Brother Jie's situation, Ma Xiaoshuai said he should be fine since the two of them were playing online games together last night.
They chatted casually for half an hour before hanging up.
Chen Fan sat alone in the living room, gazing at the empty apartment.
Suddenly, he felt a bit lonely.
Especially when images of Su Ruochu moving around in this apartment flashed through his mind.
Thinking back to their little moments during the past two days of travel.
Chen Fan felt an immense sense of emptiness and loneliness wash over him.
Almost instantly, he felt a buzzing in his head, as if he had momentarily lost consciousness.
His entire body went limp, and he slumped onto the sofa.
Leaning on the sofa, Chen Fan originally thought he was just exhausted from the past two days, so he felt a bit weak.
Subconsciously, he wanted to reach for the water glass on the coffee table in front of him.
But after struggling for a while, Chen Fan suddenly realized that he had no control over his hands.
More importantly, a wave of fatigue hit his brain, and he immediately felt drowsy.
His eyelids blinked a few times before slowly closing.
"Dear, hey, stop watching TV. Hurry up and wash your hands for dinner."
A familiar voice came from beside him.
Chen Fan was a bit surprised.
Ruochu?
In his vision, he saw Su Ruochu, wearing a cartoon-style sports outfit, coming out of the kitchen and urging the version of himself watching a ball game to eat.
Wait?
How... how can I see myself?
Chen Fan looked around in surprise.
Only then did he notice that this house was not his current faculty apartment, but rather an old, worn-down house.
The more Chen Fan looked, the wider his eyes grew.
Because he realized that this was the house he and Su Ruochu had rented in his previous life.
And the two people in front of him were indeed his previous self and Su Ruochu.
What's going on here?
Could it be... I've time traveled back again?
