Zhao Yanyan recognized Xia Shiyu from their previous encounter in Zhongjiang, where they had shared a al. She had thought Xia Shiyu was a shy and beautiful girl, noticing how little she spoke, especially around Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan.
Zhao Yanyan had suspected sothing between Xia Shiyu and Su Lin, but after learning about Lin Xiaowan and Su Lin’s official relationship, she dismissed the idea, considering Lin Xiaowan’s character wouldn’t allow for another woman in Su Lin’s life.
However, seeing Xia Shiyu at Su Lin’s apartnt with kiss marks on her neck was a shock, and Zhao Yanyan struggled to speak coherently.
After gathering herself, Zhao Yanyan finally managed to ask, “I… I’ve seen you before. You’re Xia Shiyu, right?”
Xia Shiyu smiled warmly and nodded, “Yes, that’s . Are you here to see Su Lin?”
Zhao Yanyan hesitated, then nodded, “Yes, I have so business with him.”
Zhao Yanyan felt a mix of anger and anticipation. She was upset that Su Lin seed to be playing behind Lin Xiaowan’s back, especially since he had just taken Lin Xiaowan back to Zhongjiang and then brought Xia Shiyu to Donghai.
She secretly hoped Lin Xiaowan knew about this, which would give her a reason to beco more involved with Su Lin.
Seeing Xia Shiyu’s innocent smile, Zhao Yanyan couldn’t see her as a typical ‘other woman’. She also felt sympathetic towards Xia Shiyu, knowing so of her story from Lin Xiaowan.
Quietly, Zhao Yanyan asked, “What’s your relationship with Su Lin?”
Xia Shiyu blushed and admitted, “He’s my boyfriend.”
“And Lin Xiaowan?”
Xia Shiyu hesitated before awkwardly admitting, “She’s also his girlfriend.”
Zhao Yanyan was taken aback and curiously asked, “Do you both know about each other?”
Before Xia Shiyu could respond, Su Lin interrupted, cautioning Xia Shiyu not to be misled by Zhao Yanyan’s prying.
Seeing Su Lin, Zhao Yanyan’s gossip enthusiasm faded. She looked at him accusingly, “You’re not behaving like a good man should.”
Su Lin shrugged, “I never claid to be a good man. If you want to see my abs, just ask. No need to criticize while peeking.”
“I… I just have sothing in my eye,” Zhao Yanyan retorted.
“Probably eye strain from staring at twice when you ca here,” Su Lin teased.
Zhao Yanyan countered, “Don’t think I don’t know you’ve been looking at my legs, even talking about ‘leg play years’ with Lin Xiaowan.”
After finding out about the relationship between Su Lin, Lin Xiaowan, and Xia Shiyu, Zhao Yanyan quickly made a decision. She too liked this enigmatic man.
Since Su Lin could like two girls, why couldn’t she be an addition to that? This thought, once ford in her mind, was hard to dispel. If Su Lin had only been with Lin Xiaowan, Zhao Yanyan would never have considered such thoughts.
But the reality was different; Su Lin was with both Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu, and both were aware of each other and were good friends. Zhao Yanyan and Lin Xiaowan were also good friends. Liking an outstanding man wasn’t wrong.
If a man had only one girlfriend, intruding would be morally degenerate. But if a man was a romantic, then intruding would be like a moth to a fla—a tragic love story. Different interpretations could turn the sa situation into a poignant love story.
Embarrassed, Su Lin then naturally nodded and said: “Well, your legs are indeed attractive. It’s normal for to take a few extra glances, isn’t it?”
Zhao Yanyan imdiately replied: “Well, your abs are also very attractive. It’s normal for to take a few extra glances too, right?”
“That’s right!” Su Lin nodded seriously, then perford a few movents to show off his abs. “How about it, they look good, don’t they?”
Zhao Yanyan, feeling shy inside but not wanting to lose face, nodded: “Good, very nice.”
“Alright then… your turn,” Su Lin gestured with an inviting hand motion.
“My turn for what?” Zhao Yanyan asked, puzzled.
“I showed you my abs, isn’t it your turn to show your legs?” Su Lin shalessly suggested.
“I…” Zhao Yanyan suddenly felt an intense gaze fixed on her legs.
“I…”
Seeing that Zhao Yanyan was at a loss, Xia Shiyu stepped forward, hugging Su Lin’s arm and said to Zhao Yanyan, “Yanyan, don’t mind him. He’s just like this, he’s just trying to tease you.”
“Teasing ?”
“Yeah, Su Lin sotis has this kind of wicked humor, especially when it cos to things like this. Don’t pay him any attention, he doesn’t have any bad intentions,” Xia Shiyu earnestly explained, trying to salvage Su Lin’s dropped dignity.
Su Lin, unable to help but laugh, rubbed Xia Shiyu’s head: “Xiaoyu, you’re really naively adorable, haha. Who says I have no bad intentions? I really did want to enjoy her legs.”
Xia Shiyu shook her head, “Su Lin, you just love to joke like this, what if you scared Yanyan?”
Su Lin shook his head; it was better not to dwell on this. In Xiaoyu’s eyes, he was a paragon of virtue, never wrong, always right.
Even when he was wrong, she believed he was right. It wasn’t about blind love or lack of boundaries, but trust. She trusted Su Lin!
Zhao Yanyan also couldn’t help but laugh. Su Lin was already juggling two relationships, and Xia Shiyu still thought of him as a great guy without bad intentions. If only she knew how flirtatious her man was!
“Yanyan, why don’t you wait downstairs for us? In twenty minutes, Xiaoyu and I will co down,” Su Lin said.
Zhao Yanyan gave Su Lin a strange look and then nodded her head. Although she liked Su Lin and was ready to take the initiative, it was clear that now was not the right ti.
