She packed her luggage.

Not much.

She only brought a luggage bag.

She stuffed some things randomly. She was a little absent-minded and didn't look carefully at what she had thrown in.

She booked a plane ticket for tomorrow morning.

The apartment was going to be empty for three months, so she still needed to tidy it up.

She found a dust cover in the cupboard.

First, she covered the sofa and furniture in the living room, and then the large furniture in the other rooms. She still had to stay in the bedroom for another night.

She didn't need to cover it yet.

Then she took off her T-shirt and jeans and fell on the bed.

This year seemed to have passed too quickly. In the blink of an eye, she had already spent two semesters in Berkeley.

Looking at it this way,

The four years of university were not difficult at all. It would pass very quickly.

Next semester, she would start her professional classes. She didn't know if she could handle it.

She didn't have to worry about tuition.

200,000 yuan was enough for her tuition and daily expenses. She could also buy a car.

A bicycle was very convenient, but she still had to take a bus to go further.

She didn't like buses.

Theoretical physics was a major that had to be studied further.

A doctorate was the standard.

The job usually came from the physics research institute of various universities. There were a few professional institutions, such as NASA, and so on. You could also go to university to be a teacher. The major direction had to be decided in the third year, and then you could see where you could go to study for a doctorate. Usually, you would study for a master's and a doctorate together. The university also encouraged you to study for a master's and a doctorate together instead of studying separately.

Helen didn't know what the use of this major was, but she didn't say anything. Once, she said half-jokingly that when people asked about Hayley's major in university, they would always be stunned. It felt pretty good.

She didn't expect her daughter to support the family, so she didn't care what Hayley studied.

Thinking about it, her current living situation wasn't bad.

Helen had a cold personality and did not know how to express her feelings. She did not take good care of Hayley at all. Hayley was basically brought up by a nanny when she was young. However, she had always taken care of Hayley from Berlin to New York, and from New York to Los Angeles. She had never mistreated her in terms of money and material things. She was not enthusiastic, but she had never hit or scolded her. Well, she was still a little angry the last time. Therefore, when she received the check for 200,000 yuan, she immediately gave it to Hayley. It was impossible for her to apologize. This was the closest she felt to an apology.

In fact, compared to mothers who treated their children crudely or exploited their children, Helen was already very good.

Two hundred thousand yuan in three years should not be enough. There was a scholarship for her to study for a doctorate. As long as she was careful with her money, she should be able to use it until she finished her doctorate.

And then?

It shouldn't be difficult to find a job. It might be more difficult to go to a physics institute in a famous university, but if he lowered his standards … Forget it, it was too early to think about this.

She got up and went to the kitchen to take out sliced toast from the fridge. She spread chocolate sauce on it, ate a few slices of toast, and drank a small box of yogurt.

She looked at what else was there to eat and ate a little more. She was full, so she decided not to go out for dinner.

She also tidied up her textbooks. She kept the textbooks that she had finished. She could sell them to the freshmen next semester. She could also sell her notebooks. She could also sell the notebooks of the students who got A's. There were always people who didn't like to study, especially sports students.

She was always careless with her fashion accessories and threw them all over the place.

Under her pillow was the platinum diamond bear that Juven had given her for her birthday last year.

After she started dating Little Robert, she took off the necklace to take a shower one day. Later, she forgot to put it back on and couldn't find it.

The bear's diamond eyes were sparkling, just like Juven's beautiful and sparkling grayish-blue eyes.

Juven's eyes were the same color as hers. Most of the time, they were grayish-blue, but under certain lighting, they would turn green.

Ah, Juven.

She sighed.

Then she heard someone knocking on the door. "Hayley, Hayley!"

She jumped up. How strange!

Why did he come just as she thought of him?

*

Juven knocked on the door for a long time.

He wanted to open the door with the key, but after fiddling for a long time, he couldn't open the door. Only then did he realize that she had changed the door lock.

She was a little sad. He was the one who installed one of the door locks for her.

He leaned his forehead against the door. "Hayley, I know you're here.

I'm here to take you home, back to Los Angeles.

Or, if you don't want to go back to Los Angeles, I can accompany you. You can go anywhere you want.

Babybear, I love you. Can you say something to me? "

The door chain was unlocked. Hayley opened the door. "Come in."

She took two steps back and let him in.

Juven closed the door. Before he could say anything, Hayley said in surprise, "Why have you … lost so much weight?"

Juven couldn't help but touch his cheek. "I'm a little thin.

I just came back from New Mexico. "

"Did you go to work?"

"Yes."

Hayley couldn't help but touch his cheek. "Why are you so thin?" He was so thin that his cheeks were sunken and out of shape.

"Maybe it's because I didn't eat well and didn't sleep well. Because I miss you every night."

She smiled. "You didn't."

"I won't lie to you." He seemed to have just noticed that she was only wearing a bra and panties.

She had a good figure, long legs, slim waist, and perfect breasts. The bra was half a cup, natural and full, and her skin was extremely fair. She had an exquisite collarbone, and there was a sesame-sized red mole on her left collarbone. It was very eye-catching.

He carefully reached out and touched the red mole. Then, he moved his fingers up and gently lifted her chin. He lowered his head slightly and kissed her gently.

After kissing for a while, his arms automatically hugged her. Then, she hit him hard.

"Hey!

You're hitting me again! "

He was careful not to let her hit his face. He let her hit him a few times to calm down and then grabbed her wrist. "Are you done?"

"Not enough!" She glared at him. "Let go of my hand!"

"You have to promise not to hit me again."

"I won't hit you if you let go of me." Juven let go of her hand.

As expected, she hit him a few more times.

"You said you won't hit me again." He felt wronged. She didn't keep her word.

Hayley snorted. "I'll hit you if I want to. If you're unhappy, hold it in."

She turned and went back to the bedroom. "Why are you here today?

How did you know that I finished my exams today? "

"I didn't know." Juven looked innocent. "I just thought that you should have finished your exams.

Tell me, is it because you're thinking of me and we have telepathy? Is that why I'm here today? "He wouldn't tell her that he called the Physics Department to ask about the exam schedule.

"Telepathy is pseudoscience." Hayley corrected him seriously.

"There must be."

He followed her to the bedroom and saw her looking for clothes in the closet. "Are you going somewhere?

Oh right, have you had dinner?

Let's go for dinner. "

"I'm not going anywhere.

I've eaten. I'm not hungry. "

"If you're not going out, why are you wearing a dress?" He asked her curiously. "If you think it's weird that I'm wearing a coat, I'll take it off now." He put the dress back into the closet and started to take off his clothes.

*

In the middle of the night, the two of them were eating naked in the kitchen. They had almost finished all the food in the fridge.

"I heard that the Japanese would put food on a woman's body. It probably means that a woman's body is also food. Or maybe it's some weird oriental habit." Juven licked the chocolate sauce on his fingers.

"Do you want to do that?"

"I don't know. That's a little … too much for a woman.

I've only heard about it. I've never seen it. "

"I know of other ways. We can try it next time."

"What is it?" Juven was curious.

"We can buy that semi-liquid chocolate sauce. Then, you can lie down. I can spread the chocolate sauce on your body and slowly lick it off." She gestured with her slender fingers on his chest. "I think it'll be fun."

Rui Fan felt his chest itch and his heart itch. He couldn't wait to give it a try right away.

Hayley didn't go back to Los Angeles the next day. She drove to Portland with Juven and stayed there for a week. They went out every day.

Both of them avoided talking about the drug incident. Juven didn't say that he went to the sanatorium for two weeks to get clean. Hayley didn't ask him either. However, he didn't touch any illegal drugs for a week. She was basically satisfied. So, she agreed that he had quit drugs after they met last time.

She didn't want to keep talking about it because she didn't know how to say it. Getting clean depended on the perseverance of the person involved. It had nothing to do with outsiders. Taking drugs was also a personal choice. No one forced him.

She vaguely heard Kinou say that Juven's mother, Aline, was a very controlling woman. Juven's father, John, had been forced to run away to Costa Rica. Juven didn't have a father by his side since he was a teenager. At this time, he had just started his career as a child star.

The absence of a father in a family was fatal, especially if the family wasn't normal. So, Kinou and Juven became good friends because they were in the same boat. They were both children who lacked fatherly love.

Speaking of which, she didn't have a father either.

This was probably what they meant when they said that similar souls were attracted to each other.

No one could find the two of them. They had temporarily disappeared from the face of the earth.

Juven didn't mention his family, and Hayley didn't mention her mother either.

Every morning, room service delivered breakfast. After breakfast in bed, they went out to play.

They bought a two-seater bicycle and went around the streets. When they saw an interesting shop, they stopped and bought a lot of small things. Juven bought a lot of notebooks for her. There were handmade essential oils and soaps with different scents. There was a small vase of dried flowers on the table. Perfume could be dripped into it. There was also a palm-sized brush that they didn't know what to do with. In the end, they used it to play with in bed.

They ate out at a restaurant for lunch and dinner. Juven insisted on a vegetarian diet. Hayley didn't mind.

They bought a Polaroid camera and took a lot of photos. When they returned to the hotel at night, they sat on the bed and organized the photos. They put them in a new photo album.
