After Zhou Yuwen replied to Li Shiqi, he switched over to answer his other ssages. At first, he did not care much, but later he realized that he might have hurt the young girl's pride a little. He had wanted to ask if he should drive her ho for the winter holiday.
However, right at that mont, Jiang Xinyi sent Zhou Yuwen a ssage.
Zhou Yuwen got caught up in chatting with Jiang Xinyi, completely forgetting to reply to Li Shiqi.
Truthfully, there was not much to talk about with Jiang Xinyi. She possessed the temperant of a young girl, having lived a remarkably plain and uneventful life up to the age of twenty-four. She had fully believed that life was simply dull, right until Zhou Yuwen appeared, making her finally realize how interesting life could be.
Naturally, she clung to Zhou Yuwen and chatted about absolutely everything.
For instance, she had just browsed the school forum, found a few nice pictures taken by other users, and sent them to him, asking for his opinion.
Zhou Yuwen replied that they were passable, but not even a tenth as handso as him.
"Tch, I knew you were just full of yourself!"
Although she said that, chatting with Zhou Yuwen brought an inexplicable joy to her heart.
Especially after learning that Zhou Yuwen had broken up, it felt as though she no longer had any reservations. They talked about everything, and she began to care much more about her image in his eyes. She would actively share things about herself, such as funny stories from when she learned the piano as a child, or simply what kind of girl she was.
However, Zhou Yuwen's replies remained persistently nonchalant. It felt like he was taking five to ten minutes just to send a single ssage back.
Lying in bed, Jiang Xinyi tossed and turned.
She could not help but ask, "What are you doing, Zhou Yuwen? Why are you replying so slowly?"
Zhou Yuwen took a picture for her, showing that he had just stepped out of a taxi.
"I do not have a private chauffeur, so I have to endure the miserable trek back."
Seeing him say that, Jiang Xinyi pouted and let out a soft "Oh," adding, "That is what you get for playing tough."
"My mother wanted to drive you, but you refused."
Zhou Yuwen sent Jiang Xinyi a smiling emoji.
Indeed, walking did delay his text replies, but the main reason was that Jiang Xinyi was not the only girl Zhou Yuwen was chatting with.
As Zhou Yuwen entered his apartnt building, he replied to Qu Jing, telling her that he was quite busy tonight and would not be going over to her place.
Even though this was completely unobjectionable, Qu Jing still felt incredibly disappointed upon learning he was not coming. She wanted to fight for it a little, hoping to persuade Zhou Yuwen to bestow his favors upon her.
But Zhou Yuwen simply replied, "Little pets shouldn't be so greedy. I've already spoiled you for a whole month straight. (Head pat)"
Qu Jing: "(Feeling wronged) (Feeling wronged)"
After entering the building, the property manager Huang Xiaoyuan was the sa old sight, dressed in a sharp gray professional suit. Seeing Zhou Yuwen return, she hurried out and greeted, "Mr. Zhou."
"I have not seen you in a long ti." The heater was running inside the building, making the gray suit, sheer stockings, and high heels the standard uniform for the property manager.
Zhou Yuwen nodded slightly and said, "I have been quite busy lately."
"Did you go to Shanghai for an interview?"
Huang Xiaoyuan gave Zhou Yuwen special treatnt, following him straight to the elevator and even pressing the button for him.
Hearing this, Zhou Yuwen looked up, glanced at Huang Xiaoyuan, and smiled. "You saw that?"
Huang Xiaoyuan smiled faintly, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear. "I read the news about you."
"Mm."
At that mont, the elevator arrived. Huang Xiaoyuan reached out to hold the doors open for him to enter, then helped him press his floor button.
She watched as the elevator doors closed.
Obviously, after learning about Zhou Yuwen's monthly inco, Huang Xiaoyuan's attitude toward him had improved sowhat. It was a pity, however, that she was rely a property manager while Zhou Yuwen was a hoowner.
Even if she harbored other intentions, Zhou Yuwen only treated her like an NPC.
Watching Zhou Yuwen stare at his phone from beginning to end without so much as lifting his head, Huang Xiaoyuan felt sowhat disappointed.
Zhou Yuwen quickly reached his front door and unlocked it with his fingerprint.
Fortunately, despite his two-week absence, the place was cleaner than he had expected. Zhou Yuwen had originally assud that given Zheng Yanyan's ssy habits, she would have wreaked havoc on his apartnt.
The television in the living room was on, but the lights were off, save for the bright glow emanating from the open kitchen.
With Zhou Yuwen coming in so suddenly, Lu Lin did not register his arrival at first.
It was the end of the sester, so there were barely any classes left. Unlike a social butterfly like Zheng Yanyan, Lu Lin preferred to spend her free ti lying around the apartnt, watching TV and playing gas.
She had not stepped outside all day, only ordering KFC delivery as evening approached, and was currently sitting there gnawing on a drumstick.
Since she had not left the house, Lu Lin had naturally not bothered dressing up. She wore a loose black hoodie, her jade-like legs clad in pure white cotton socks.
It was winter, and even though the heater was on in the room, her feet would still get a little chilly, so wearing a pair of cotton socks was perfectly unobjectionable.
Truth be told, her casual loungewear look was quite attractive.
Zhou Yuwen looked Lu Lin up and down as she sat there nibbling on her chicken.
They stared at each other in surprise before Zhou Yuwen asked, "Why are you here?"
This question left Lu Lin dumbfounded. She was already an insecure young girl, and with Zhou Yuwen asking that, she tentatively replied, "Should I leave right now, then?"
Saying that, Lu Lin started to stand up.
Realizing his mistake, Zhou Yuwen quickly walked over, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and coaxed, "Oh, oh, I didn't an it like that."
Holding onto her waist, Zhou Yuwen tossed her lightly onto the sofa and pulled her into his arms. He nuzzled his nose against her neck, planting two soft kisses, and whispered, "Yanyan invited
over today. I figured she would have already sent you away ahead of ti, so I didn't expect you to still be here."
As he spoke, his hand slid under Lu Lin's hoodie.
Having just co from outside, his hands were quite cold.
Naturally, Lu Lin's soft belly was delightfully warm.
Lu Lin shot him a glance and muttered in a muffled voice, "Of course I knew you were coming."
"I had originally planned to go back to the dormitory, but Yanyan said it was fine and that I could just sleep in the guest room. Since she said that, I obediently listened to her."
Zhou Yuwen chuckled upon hearing this. "Is it really as simple as just listening to her? Didn't you miss
too?"
"What's the point of
missing you when a certain heartless man doesn't miss
at all? Sigh, if I had known, I would have just left early." Lu Lin kept a deadpan expression, completely allowing Zhou Yuwen's hands to wander beneath her clothes.
Zhou Yuwen could only coax her gently, "Alright, alright, it was my fault. Don't be mad, baby, okay?"
Lu Lin pouted and complained, "Zhou Yuwen, do you know how hurtful the very first thing you said when you walked in was?"
Zhou Yuwen continued to placate her, caressing her thighs back and forth while admitting his fault.
After a little while of this tender coaxing, he finally managed to sweet-talk Lu Lin into relaxing in his embrace.
In truth, Lu Lin was just playing up her temper a little. After all, it had been so long since she last saw Zhou Yuwen; to say she hadn't missed him would be a blatant lie. Since he offered her a way out, she naturally took it.
He hugged her slender waist and let her head tilt to rest on his shoulder.
Obediently, Lu Lin nestled into his chest. Zhou Yuwen kissed her cheek and asked, "Where is Yanyan?"
"She is in the room. Thanks to the great ss you made."
"Hm?"
Lu Lin inford him that Zheng Yanyan was currently locked in a fierce flaming war with Su Qing on the school forum. She had even made a phone call earlier, seemingly paying for an online water army, insisting that the song he had just sung was written for her.
Zhou Yuwen was utterly speechless upon hearing this. "Incredible. This is what she wastes money on?"
Lu Lin also found it rather ridiculous. Seeing Zhou Yuwen's exasperated expression, she added, "It seems Su Qing bought an army as well."
"..."
Zhou Yuwen was completely at a loss for words, thinking to himself, 'These two spendthrift won... they might even be using my money.'
Looking down at Lu Lin in his arms, Zhou Yuwen leaned in to kiss her soft, warm lips and praised, "My precious Lin is still the most obediently sensible one. You don't burn through my money."
Lu Lin scoffed, "Oh, please. It's the crying baby that gets fed."
Zhou Yuwen's hand cupped the front of her black hoodie. "And the baby that doesn't cry... gets eaten."
Lu Lin rolled her eyes at that, but Zhou Yuwen simply laughed. Taking advantage of the fact that Zheng Yanyan had not co out yet, he seized the rare opportunity to get intimate, pulling her close and kissing her deeply.
Before they knew it, he had pinned Lu Lin against the sofa.
From the looks of it, it seed he wanted to take things all the way right then and there.
However, just as Zhou Yuwen was about to proceed, Lu Lin stopped him. "Yanyan is still in the room, you know."
"Are you really not scared?"
Zhou Yuwen replied, "What is there to be scared of? The way she and Su Qing are going at it, they probably won't finish anyti soon."
"But what if she cos out?" Lu Lin asked.
Zhou Yuwen actually did not have that many qualms about it anymore. It wasn't exactly the first ti Zheng Yanyan had caught him red-handed, but Lu Lin still cared sowhat about their bond as sisters.
Underneath, Lu Lin was practically only wearing that loose hoodie. Lifting the hem revealed her long legs snugly framing a pair of red Calvin Klein panties. Amidst their intimate whispers and teasing, Zhou Yuwen directly pulled the fabric aside, thinking to himself, 'I might as well let my little brother greet her little sister first.'
To this, Lu Lin offered no resistance.
But the mont Zhou Yuwen tried to take the final step, Lu Lin pushed him away.
Lu Lin whispered, "Forget it, I won't be able to stop myself from moaning."
"It is fine, just moan."
"No."
Lu Lin yanked her clothes back down and swung her long legs off the sofa. After a long mont of hesitation, she ultimately lost her nerve.
Seeing her timid display, Zhou Yuwen sighed helplessly. "This is a rare opportunity. If you don't cherish it now, tonight you will just have to listen to Yanyan and
right next door."
"Go right ahead, I don't care."
Lu Lin added, "I still haven't eaten yet today. I'm done talking to you, I am going to eat."
With that, ignoring Zhou Yuwen completely, the pretty girl slipped off the sofa and scurried over to the dining area to enjoy her al.
Zhou Yuwen instantly felt a wave of disappointnt. It seed Lu Lin had grown more cowardly. Back in the day, what hadn't she dared to do?
However, since she wasn't willing, he couldn't exactly force her.
He picked himself up and went to find Zheng Yanyan.
Zhou Yuwen was right; the intense clash between Zheng Yanyan and Su Qing was not going to end anyti soon.
Zhou Yuwen actually pushed the door open and walked in, but Zheng Yanyan was so absorbed she did not even notice him.
She was still wearing the sailor uniform from her earlier performance, her long legs pressed together and tucked to the side of her chair. With her headset on, she furiously clicked her mouse and clattered her keyboard, shouting into the mic, "Money is not a problem! Spam another hundred comnts! Tell them Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan are a match made in heaven! It's perfectly normal for him to write a song after a crisis in their relationship! Nobody even knows where that Su Qing popped out from; how could Zhou Yuwen ever write a song for her?! Ah!"
Before she could even finish her sentence, she let out a loud shriek as her headset was suddenly snatched off her head by Zhou Yuwen.
She was about to explode with rage, but the mont she turned around and saw it was Zhou Yuwen, her eyes lit up. "Hubby!?"
Zhou Yuwen first shot her a withering glare, then spoke directly into the headset, "Cancel it. Stop the spam. Cancel all remaining orders."
Having said his piece, Zhou Yuwen promptly ended the voice call.
He grabbed the mouse and took a look at the school forum.
Good grief. Everywhere he looked, the posts were either screaming that the song was written for Su Qing, claiming that she and Zhou Yuwen had been dating since high school...
Or they were aggressively arguing that the song was written for Zheng Yanyan, insisting that since she and Zhou Yuwen had just broken up, it had to be dedicated to her!
"My goodness, is this how you two are blowing through my money?" Zhou Yuwen felt a genuine ache in his chest looking at the screen. If they were taking his cash to buy clothes or food, he could accept it.
But wasn't this just pure, unadulterated waste?
Zheng Yanyan imdiately acted stubborn, pouting as she retorted, "I didn't use your money, I used the money my mother gave !"
Hearing this, Zhou Yuwen reached down without another word and pinched her thigh.
"Ah! Hubby, why did you pinch ?!" Zheng Yanyan squealed in pain, hastily covering her thigh.
Zhou Yuwen scolded, "You didn't use my money? Are the clothes you're wearing not bought with my money? You burn your mother's allowance on this nonsense, and use my money for food and clothes, is that it?"
Zheng Yanyan pouted her little lips, looking the picture of guilt as she whined, "But she started it..."
Zhou Yuwen sighed. "You two are seriously acting like children."
"Get up."
He ordered Zheng Yanyan out of her seat, making her stand properly beside the chair.
Knowing she was in the wrong, Zheng Yanyan didn't dare defy him despite her lingering indignation. She stood there obediently, hands clasped together in front of her like a child caught misbehaving.
Zhou Yuwen took her place in the chair. He was in no rush to deal with the erring 'sailor girl' standing before him.
Instead, he first skimd through the forum posts before dialing Shen Yu's number.
Shen Yu was the person in charge of new dia operations for the Student Union.
Shen Yu was quite surprised to receive an incoming call from Zhou Yuwen, asking what was the matter.
Zhou Yuwen asked if she could delete the threads on the forum.
"Uh, that is not a problem, but regarding Su Qing's side..." Shen Yu sounded deeply conflicted.
Sighing helplessly, Zhou Yuwen asked, "She is right next to you, isn't she?"
"Yes..."
"Pass the phone to her. I will talk to her."
"Zhou Yuwen!"
Hearing that it was an incoming call from Zhou Yuwen, Su Qing couldn't contain her impatience any longer. She snatched the phone and cried out his na in pleasant surprise.
Zhou Yuwen simply asked, "Are you still a child?"
Assuming Zhou Yuwen was calling to stick up for Zheng Yanyan, Su Qing let out a coquettish whine of protest, declaring, "Who told her to be so shaless!"
Zhou Yuwen retorted, "How old is she, and how old are you? She acts like a fool, and you follow right along with her nonsense?"
"Why does she get to ss around, but I don't?!" Su Qing complained, completely feeling wronged.
She genuinely felt wronged. She had painstakingly prepared everything for that song, so why on earth should Zheng Yanyan get the credit for it?!
Scolded so harshly by Zhou Yuwen, Su Qing imdiately burst into tears.
No matter how viciously she brawled with Zheng Yanyan, Su Qing would never cry.
But Zhou Yuwen could not just blatantly take the other side!
That song was written for her! Why should she let Zheng Yanyan claim it?!
Hearing Su Qing sob, Zhou Yuwen imdiately felt a headache coming on.
