Chapter 27: College Student and Mistress's Love

's wrong. I’ll help you look for the car right away! Bye-bye, darling!" Chu Yao quickly hung up, afraid of being spanked; she didn't dare to send herself over to Xia Tian for a while.Ever since that n...Chapter 1: Big and Small Beauties

Academy Mansion.

Sun Xinxin was sitting on the sofa, flipping channels with a remote control. However, no matter how much she changed channels, there were no programs that caught her interest. The Korean dramas she used to love now held no appeal for her at all.

After changing a few more channels, Sun Xinxin turned off the TV and stared blankly into space for a moment before checking the time on her phone. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly; it was almost ten o'clock, but Xia Tian hadn't returned yet.

She yawned softly as drowsiness crept over her, but she didn’t feel like going to sleep. Even though she had known Xia Tian for only three days in total, she found herself becoming unusually concerned about the big boy. Despite Xia Tian having spent just one night at her place and not returning last night or tonight up until now, it made her feel uncomfortable as if something was missing.

She remembered someone saying that women tend to develop feelings for men who have saved them, so heroically rescuing a damsel in distress is the best pickup line. Could she be like that

In fact, this guy has caused trouble like crazy recently; it's only been several days since he was last seen getting into fights and even visiting the police station twice. He really doesn't give peace of mind.

Thinking about this morning when someone had driven a car worth hundreds of thousands to take Xia Tian to the flower shop, and that expensive iPhone, Sun Xinxin couldn't help but wonder if he was indeed in a relationship with a rich woman as Fang XiaoRu suggested. Or perhaps it's true that Qiao XiaoQiao is his wife as Xia Tian claimed

After much thought, she felt that the possibility of him being involved with a wealthy woman seemed higher, yet considering how unattractive he looked, there shouldn't be any rich women interested in someone like him!

"Should I call him again" Sun Xinxin picked up her phone, then put it down before picking it up once more; she was rather hesitant.

"Ding dong..." The doorbell suddenly rang.

Xin Xin was delighted and quickly jumped up from the sofa, swiftly opening the door.

A young man stood at the door, but it wasn't Xia Tian.

“Xiao Yu, how is it you” Edna exclaimed out loud. She had thought that it would be Xia Tian who returned home, yet she never expected to see her younger brother, Sun Tianyu.

Seeing the state of Sun Tianyu now, she couldn't help but ask again: “Xiao Yu, what happened Why are you looking so disheveled”

Sun Tianyu looked truly bedraggled now; his clothes were crumpled and unwashed for days, he was haggard with messy hair and sunken eyes, bloodshot.

“Sis, come in first then,” Sun Tianyu said softly, his voice somewhat hoarse.

“Oh, okay, come in quickly!” Edna hurriedly ushered Sun Tianyu into the house and closed the door behind him.

Sun Tianyu poured himself a glass of water from the water dispenser and gulped it down, then he filled another one. After drinking three glasses consecutively, he finally stood up and walked to the sofa, sitting down with little energy left.

“Xiao Yu, have you eaten dinner” Edna asked with concern.

"I... " Sun Tianyu hesitated for a moment, "I've eaten already."

"Alright, don't lie to me. There's some leftover food; I'll warm it up for you so that you can have something in your stomach." Seeing his expression, Sun Xin Xin immediately understood the situation and got up to go to the kitchen.

Doorbell... Ding dong...

Sun Tianyu suddenly jumped up from the sofa with a changed expression.

"No, sister, don't open the door!" Seeing Sun Xin Xin heading towards the door, Sun Tianyu lowered his voice and looked very anxious.

"Little Yu, what's wrong" Sun Xin Xin was somewhat puzzled.

"Nothing, nothing. Sister, just don't open the door!" Sun Tianyu appeared extremely nervous.

"Xin姐, it's me!" Xia Tian's voice came from outside the door; he had good hearing and could hear what was happening inside.

"Little Yu, it's a friend of mine who lives here too. Don't be afraid." Sun Xin Xin faintly understood that Sun Tianyu was hiding from someone, so she explained to him softly.

"Sister, is he your boyfriend" Sun Tianyu's expression relaxed.

"Not yet, I haven't."

XinXin's face flushed slightly as she spoke and opened the door.

Summer walked into the room and immediately spotted Sun Tianyu.

"Sis Xin, who is this guy" Summer asked with a hint of hostility in his eyes. Although the man looked disheveled, he seemed quite good-looking. Was he here to snatch his girlfriend

"This is my brother, Sun Tianyu. Tianyu, this is Summer. He works at my flower shop and lives here too. You two can chat while I warm up some food for you," XinXin quickly explained before rushing into the kitchen.

"Oh, so he's Sis Xin's brother!" Hearing this, Summer felt relieved.

Sun Tianyu glanced at Summer but didn't say a word. His expression was wary. Since Sun Tianyu remained silent, Summer didn't make any effort to talk either; he preferred chatting with beautiful girls rather than idle conversation with men. As a result, the two of them didn’t exchange a single sentence until XinXin brought out their food.

Sun Tianyu appeared very hungry and devoured his meal in large gulps, even more exaggeratedly than Summer's eating style. In no time at all, both of them had cleared the table. Fortunately, the previous ample spread prepared by XinXin was enough to fill these two famished stomachs.

"Alright, Tianyu, now you can tell me what happened," XinXin asked softly after they finished eating.

"Sis, I... I want to stay here for a few days," Tianyu said hesitantly in a low voice.

"Tianyu, if you want to stay here, of course that’s fine. Whether it's a few days or several months, it doesn’t matter. But can you tell me what happened" XinXin gently replied.

"Sis, it's nothing. Don't ask."

Sun Xinxin looked at Sun Tianyu, her brother who was only a year younger than her. When they were young, they had a good relationship, but in recent years, for some unknown reason, their bond had grown distant. He only visited her twice during his three-year college stint in Jianghai City. Therefore, when he suddenly showed up here looking so disheveled, she felt that something really serious must have happened to him.

"Tianyu, are you running away from someone" After a moment of thought, Sun Xinxin asked. "Just tell me whatever it is. No matter what happens, I'll help you because I'm your sister!"

"Sis, really, there's nothing. I'll be fine after staying here for a few days," Sun Tianyu shook his head and still didn't reveal anything.

"There’s definitely something wrong." Xia Tian couldn’t hold back and chimed in, "You look like you haven’t slept properly for at least three days. Also, one week ago, someone beat the crap out of you, your injuries aren’t fully healed yet. Oh, and recently, you’ve been fooling around with a woman multiple times—most likely she’s behind this trouble!"

"You... How do you know" Sun Tianyu suddenly looked at Xia Tian.

"Tianyu, are you saying what Xia Tian said is true" Sun Xinxin's expression changed. "Tell me, what's going on Hurry up and say it!"

"Sis..." Sun Tianyu was still hesitant.

Xia Tian was annoyed: "You’re a man, just spit it out! Tell us what’s happening so I can quickly sort it out. I don’t want Sis Xinxin to get caught up in this."

"Yeah, Tianyu, please tell us," Sun Xinxin also urged him from the side.

Sun Tianyu looked at Sun Xinxin and finally told her the whole story.

In fact, Sun Tianyu's experience was not a unique tale. Two months ago, he found a part-time job selling houses for a real estate company. This kind of commission-only work with no fixed salary requirements was quite suitable for him as a student still in school.

Then, at his part-time workplace, he met an attractive girl. Sun Tianyu was actually rather good-looking and quite popular among girls. Not long after, they started having a passionate affair.

Unfortunately, Sun Tianyu didn't know that this girl already had someone else. Although she wasn't married, she was the mistress of the real estate company's CEO who kept her in luxury. A week ago, when things came to light, Sun Tianyu got beaten up by one of the CEO’s men and the girl was taken away.

Originally, Sun Tianyu thought that would be the end of it. But three days ago, he suddenly received a phone call from this girl. Over the phone, she sounded anxious and urged him to run for his life as the CEO had just returned from out of town and was furious upon learning what happened, saying he wanted to get rid of Sun Tianyu.

According to her account, the CEO had some underworld connections; when he first made a fortune, he had done many shady deals. He was ruthless and capable of doing anything he said, so if he vowed to eliminate Sun Tianyu, it would very likely happen.

Sun Tianyu rented an apartment outside school. When he received the girl's call, he happened to be out at that moment. Upon returning to his rental home, however, he found everything smashed up inside and realized that what she said was true—someone really wanted him dead. If he hadn't been away from home, it might have already happened to him by now. Thus, he went into hiding.

Living in fear for days, unable to eat or sleep properly, with several near misses where he nearly got caught, Sun Tianyu was on the verge of breaking down. Ultimately, he thought of his sister and decided to hide at her place for a while.

Hearing the whole story from Sun Tianyu, Sun Xinxin couldn't help but pale. Nowadays, real estate is valuable, and any CEO from a property company would typically have assets worth tens of millions or more. Such people usually come with complicated backgrounds. It would be easy for them to find someone to get rid of an impoverished, unconnected college student like his brother.

"Summer, what should we do" Sun Xinxin looked at the young man she had only known for three days with a pleading gaze; she knew she was incapable of helping her brother. The only person who might be able to help Sun Tianyu could perhaps be Summer.ldn't help but skip a beat upon hearing that Mei'er had called Xia Tian.
