199 If Lu Ye Didn’t Get In Early

Bai Changle seemed very calm as he responded, "This is the way a man trains. Guo Rou, you're a tomboy, but you are not a real boy."

Then, he approached Gu Yan and asked, "Comrade Gu Yan, are you sweeping the snow?"

Gu Yan was speechless.

'What else could she be doing then?'

She was obviously holding a broom. If she weren't here to sweep, then did he think she was cosplaying as Harry Potter.

'Oh, Harry Potter wasn't written in this era yet.'

Gu Yan couldn't figure out how to deal with Bai Changle. She really wanted to ask about Xie Luan.

But if she did, it would be too abrupt. She was just a stranger to them right now…

This made her feel distressed.

At this moment, Guo Rou snorted without care. She then asked, "Captain Bai, how is Aunty Xie? I heard she was rushed into the hospital a while ago."

Gu Yan was a little excited. She was grateful for Guo Rou, but she suppressed her emotions and pretended to casually sweep the ground.

Deep inside, she was quite eager to hear Bai Changle's answer.

Bai Changle responded, "Mhm, her old illness flared up again. Luckily, she was saved by some girl. She's feeling better now, but we don't allow her to go out. She's resting at home."

"Oh, I'll go visit Aunty Xie during the holiday again." Guo Rou nodded.

Gu Yan also felt relieved.

However… if Xie Luan stayed in the Bai family, it would be difficult to see her again.

Just when Gu Yan felt dejected, Bai Changle suddenly called her attention. "Comrade Gu Yan, I have some business to settle with you."

"Me?" Gu Yan was taken aback.

She did want to have any form of contact with Bai Changle.

After all, Bai Weiyang…

However, she didn't expect him to look for her first.

Guo Rou immediately became vigilant. She stood in front of Gu Yan and said, "Bai Changle, don't you know Gu Yan is Captain Lu's girlfriend? You treat each other as brothers. What are you trying to do?"

Bai Changle's mouth twitched. "What did I even do? I was just going to give this dorm key to Comrade Gu Yan!"

"What?! You're giving the key to your dorm to Gu Yan?" Guo Rou was so shocked she dropped her broom.

Bai Changle almost gasped for air. "Guo Rou, if you weren't a girl, I would slap you! Just what are you thinking in that brain of yours. It is the key to Lu Ye's room. He asked me to give it to her before he went away for his mission!"

Guo Rou rubbed her nose in awkwardness. "It's your fault for not saying things in one go."

Gu Yan took the key and asked, "Why did Lu Ye give this key to me?"

"He said you are not going to visit your home during the holiday. It wouldn't be warm enough in your own room. You need to focus on reviewing, so he wants you to stay in his room for the New Year. We have a small kitchen next to our dorm. You can cook whatever you want, and there is enough heat to warm you up. The electricity wouldn't be cut off at night," Bai Changle said the words in one go this time.

To be honest, Bai Changle had a great impression of Gu Yan. He felt inclined to befriend her.

Plus, Gu Yan was pretty, excellent, and ambitious.

If Lu Ye didn't get in so early, he would even…
