"Lin Tian, the last time you left without saying goodbye, was it really like Manxue said over the phone? If there's any trouble, you must speak up." Fang Ming walked out of the classroom, interrupting Lin Tian's thoughts.

Lin Tian smiled and said, "Aunt Fang, don't worry. It's really just like Miss said. If there was really any trouble, I would definitely tell you."

"You, child, I can tell you're not being honest, but if you don't want to talk, I won't force you. When you go to university in Jinghua City, remember to come visit Aunt Fang." Fang Ming shook her head somewhat helplessly, using her woman's intuition, she knew Lin Tian was lying.

"Is Teacher Fang also leaving Xikou City?" Xiao Manxuan asked beside her.

Fang Ming raised her head, looking at the campus in front of her, and after a while said, "You've graduated, so I've achieved success. All gatherings must come to an end; there will come a day to leave."

"It's good for Aunt Fang to go back. You've been apart from Uncle Ning for so long; you should be together, lest Uncle Ning pines away for you." Lin Tian joked.

"Daring to joke with Aunt Fang, do you think now that you've graduated, I, the homeroom teacher, can't control you?" Fang Ming said, deliberately with a straight face.

Lin Tian cooperated by saying, "As long as I'm not made to clean the toilets, you can punish me however you like, dear homeroom teacher."

After saying that, the two of them laughed, as if they were back in those simple school days.

"Alright, you guys head back. I still have to enter your volunteer preferences into the system," Fang Ming said finally.

Lin Tian and Xiao Manxuan waved goodbye to Fang Ming, leaving Class Three of Senior High, and also leaving this campus. Thus, their high school life drew to a close.

"Lin Tian, let's go shopping. Tomorrow I'm leaving with Sister Ziqing, who knows when we'll meet again," Xiao Manxuan said somewhat sorrowfully.

"Sure, I'm the Second Miss's bodyguard, after all. I'll follow all of Second Miss's orders," Lin Tian said with a smile.

"That's what you said. You have to shop with me for a whole day; no backing out, or I'll have my sister dock your pay, hmph," Xiao Manxuan pouted cutely, with an expression of being the boss.

"It's just shopping, after all. I'm not afraid of vampires, so I'm not afraid of shopping. Shopping for three days and nights is fine," Lin Tian said generously.

Three hours later, Lin Tian was stunned. If he had known, he wouldn't have bragged. Because the little girl had visited no fewer than thirty stores in three hours, he had transported the purchased items to the car several times because the little girl insisted on not letting the store deliver them, saying it felt more like shopping when she carried them herself.

Lin Tian really wanted to say, are you the one carrying them? It's me carrying them, isn't it? After going back and forth over ten times, Lin Tian nearly lost his sense of direction, even though the items were worth nothing, their quantity was overwhelming.

Indeed, shopping is a woman's gift. Xiao Manxuan's craziness seemed to be making up for future opportunities in advance. Not until the sun set and nightfall came did the little girl finally stop.

"Lin Tian, this seems to be the second time we've shopped together since we met." As they got into the car, Xiao Manxuan suddenly said.

Lin Tian was taken aback, then he remembered. The last time they shopped alone was when they had just met, and they even toyed with Sun Decai back then.

"Don't worry, once you return from that Tang sect, we'll have plenty of time to shop," Lin Tian saw a bit of farewell sorrow in the little girl's eyes and couldn't help but comfort her.

"Sister Ziqing is quite nice, why do you refer to her as that Tang person, it sounds awful," Xiao Manxuan found Lin Tian's way of addressing her amusing.

Lin Tian started the car and began driving, casually saying, "That woman is so proud, she looks at others with a condescending gaze, I don't like it."

"Sister Ziqing is so pretty, yet you don't like her, then what kind do you like?" Xiao Manxuan retorted, annoyed.

Lin Tian glanced at her, smiled and said, "I like someone like the Second Miss, pretty and cute, gentle and kind, like an angel on earth."

Xiao Manxuan was taken aback, then her pretty face blushed, she glared at Lin Tian charmingly and said, "You big villain, you just like saying nice things to make me happy."

"The Second Miss is indeed pretty and cute, gentle and kind, I'm just speaking the truth," Lin Tian said very earnestly.

The little girl's face turned even redder, she gave Lin Tian a side-eye and retorted, "My sister said not to listen to your sweet-talking, deceives the girls, I'm not talking to you."

The little girl really turned her head away, and Lin Tian felt depressed. How could someone as straightforward as him be said to be deceiving girls?

But Lin Tian, with sharp eyes, noticed the little girl's mouth curling up in a barely concealed smile, and he realized, she truly liked hearing nice words.

Soon, they returned to the Xiao Family's garage. Lin Tian opened the door and got out, but when he was about to leave, Xiao Manxuan was still not getting out. Lin Tian knocked several times before the little girl reluctantly stepped out.

"Second Miss, Mrs. Xiao already texted us to eat dinner, do you still want to spend the night in the car?" Lin Tian asked curiously.

"Oh, I know." Xiao Manxuan seemed to be in low spirits. She looked up at Lin Tian and softly said, "Lin Tian, close your eyes, I have something to tell you."

The little girl was acting all mysterious, and Lin Tian was curious, but he still closed his eyes. After a while, he suddenly felt a gentle touch on his lips and instinctively opened his eyes.

Lin Tian saw Xiao Manxuan up close, it turns out she had stolen a kiss. The little girl panicked when Lin Tian opened his eyes, and wanted to retreat and escape.

How could Lin Tian allow that to happen? He reached out, wrapping an arm around Xiao Manxuan's slender waist, then lowered his head to kiss her soft lips.

Xiao Manxuan instinctively wanted to struggle, but she couldn't move Lin Tian's strong arms. Under Lin Tian's "attack," she soon surrendered, collapsing softly into Lin Tian's embrace.

After a long time, the two parted. Xiao Manxuan breathed heavily as if lacking oxygen, her ample chest heaving up and down, her pretty face completely flushed, the redness spreading to her ears, even her fair neck was a light pink.

After a while, she finally spoke, "Big villain, I'm not talking to you anymore..." With those words, she scampered away in a fluster from the garage.

Watching Xiao Manxuan's departing figure, Lin Tian suddenly realized that the little girl's reluctance to leave the car was because she wanted a little more time alone.

However, how could I, who prides myself on being smart, not realize this? Lin Tian sighed, feeling very responsible; this was a young girl's pure affection, how could I let her down?

Lin Tian shook his head and left the garage. When he returned to the villa, the living room was indeed filled with a feast. Considering Mrs. Xiao's usual frugality, it was unlikely to serve so many dishes for a meal.

But on reflection, Lin Tian understood that this was probably Xiao Manxuan's farewell dinner. Only then did Lin Tian realize that he wouldn't see this charmingly willful little girl for a while.
