Xu Shifan returned from school at noon, and after they had lunch together, Luo Qiao said, "Starting today, I'm moving back here."
Xu Shifan brought over a plate of watermelon and said, "I went over a few days ago to clean up that house. I've already talked to the tenants there. They'll move back in when school starts. This way, they won't have to pretend for me anymore, since the Xu family might pop over from time to time."
Having heard this, Luo Qiao understood Xu Shifan's concerns and said, "That works too, Sister Xu. You can stay over here. After all, even if you get married, you're still going to have to attend school."
Xu Yuqing responded, "Alright, then I'll stay here, and Shifan can move to the other courtyard. It's not far anyway, and he can come over for meals."
With the matter settled and it getting late, Lu Yichen dropped Luo Qiao off at school and reiterated his instructions for half a day before leaving.
