Chapter 55 Why steal someone else's?

-

Wen Yining shifted her gaze, her ears filled with their conversation about playing a murder mystery game. Her heart was racing a little from his question, and she felt uneasy without looking at him.

How can you compare things if you've never seen them before?

If nothing unexpected happens, without his coercion to sleep with her, she probably would have already had a relationship with Chen Jiabai. The timing is about right; they've known each other for five or six years, so they're familiar enough.

Normally, after confirming the relationship, she felt that the third month would be enough, and this month happens to be the fourth month.

The girl Chen Jiabai dated before was also quite seductive, not much worse than her; she even took the initiative to go to a hotel with him.

However, boys also have double standards in this regard.

She can't resist a flirtatious man, but at the same time she knows he's not suitable to be married properly. Chen Jiabai is a typical example, so she pretends not to know anything and keeps quiet about dirty jokes.

Chen Jiabai had never seen her angry. In his memory, she was always sensible and had a high IQ, and he had never seen her say anything lewd.

Although Shen Yueze forced her to say those things.

He had a cushion in his arms, and nudged her with his leg, reminding her to hurry back.

"you."

She gave a perfunctory reply.

Actually, if his genitals weren't attractive or dark in color, like in the movies, she wouldn't be willing to give him oral sex.

Although it was his request, I didn't resist it deep down.

Shen Yueze stared at her, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Actually, I'm quite curious about your relationship. Compared to Feng Yan, who goes further?"

"Why are you so concerned about Feng Yan? It's not like you were flirting with him while you were talking to him."

But during your time with Chen Jiabai, there's no need to hold a grudge for the sake of your good friend, right? "You knew him before?"

"I don't know him."

Shen Yueze scrolled through her phone and added some average-looking and average-height guys, but she didn't bother with them, so he didn't bother scrolling through her phone either.

Only Feng Yan looks like a celebrity.

She wouldn't waste her time on mediocre guys, so she was impressed by Feng Yan.

"There's something else we can't let them know about our relationship. They all know Chen Jiabai, and we're quite close. What will they think if they find out?"

Shen Yueze hummed in agreement, glanced at a few pages of the script, and said lazily, "But they're not blind; they figured it out a long time ago."

Wen Yining meant, "It's just that I feel a bit ambiguous. We've never met before, so just don't hug or kiss in public."

He didn't speak, his expression was so-so. He took a few sips of white wine, then gave a cold snort, "Like his mother having an affair."

It does look similar, but there's nothing she can do. They have so many mutual friends, and she doesn't want to become the subject of gossip.

She continued, "Isn't being at home enough? There's no need to be outside."

When it was Wen Yining's turn to speak, everyone had been paying attention and their minds were all on him.

His hands weren't very well-behaved either. They had been on her waist earlier, but after she pulled them off, they were now on her thighs, where a cushion was conveniently covering them.

His hands were wide and his fingers long, exuding the strength of an adult man. They were just big enough to encircle her thighs. He didn't use much force, just a loose grip, yet his presence was very strong.

This reminded Wen Yining of their first meeting, when he stared directly at her legs and asked suspiciously, "Are you a leg fetishist?"

"Yes, a little."

He pushed a glass of wine towards her, slightly raising his chin to signal her to drink.

She didn't pick up the bottle. She could hold her liquor, but she was worried that she would get drunk and pass out. He had no bottom line, so what if he took advantage of her while she was drunk?

"I only drink beverages."

When Li Xiayi heard her speak, she noticed them. She stared at the two of them for a while, frowned slightly. There was no excessive behavior or flirting, but the atmosphere was different. It was incredibly ambiguous. Underneath the pillow in her arms, there was Shen Yueze's hand. She didn't know if it was on her lap or inside her skirt.

She said to Wen Yining, "Can I use this pillow?"

Wen Yining didn't move, her eyes searching for other pillows in the private room. At this moment, Shen Yueze said to Li Xiayi, "Go over there and get them yourself."

He then slowly pulled his arm back, and pinched her thigh as he did so.

Wen Yining instinctively flinched, tickled by his touch, and glared at him irritably. He, on the other hand, started analyzing who the murderer was.

After playing the murder mystery game for an hour and a half, she leaned back, yawned three times in a row, sighed, and looked listless. It wasn't that the game wasn't fun; she was just sleepy because she hadn't slept well for the past few days.

She was constantly bothered by people around her. Even after breaking up, she had to be questioned from beginning to end. From her cousin to Chen Mo, and then to her roommate, she had explained three or four times, but no one really believed that they had been talking so well and then just broke up like that.

She hadn't said anything bad about Chen Jiabai, and she guessed he felt the same way.

Shen Yueze tilted his head and looked at her for a moment, then asked, "Tired?"

"Um."

"Go back to sleep."

"It's okay, let's finish this game. It would be such a downer to leave now. This dungeon will take another two or three hours to finish."

Shen Yueze raised his forearm and glanced at his watch; it was 12 o'clock.

I looked through my notebook from beginning to end, then started to recall what everyone had said before. I tore off a piece of paper and pressed my pen twice.

Wen Yining saw that he had also started analyzing on paper, "I thought you had a particularly good memory and didn't need to remember anything."

About ten minutes later, he ended the game.

Xie Yuchen clicked her tongue and angrily threw a cherry tomato from the table at him. "Why are you such a spoilsport? We haven't had enough fun yet. We won't include you anymore. You're the only one with a smart brain."

Li Xiayi chimed in, "Can't you wait a bit before saying this, Shen Yueze?"

"It's time to go to bed."

He casually caught the fruit someone threw to him, ate it, and the sound of him biting into it reached Wen Yining's ears. She glanced at him, feeling a little guilty. She said she was sleepy, but he seemed to be in good spirits, showing no signs of fatigue.

It's strange, even though she's the one doing the physical work, she always seems to have more energy than her.

Ye Qingchi put his arm around his girlfriend and said meaningfully, "I don't believe you're going to bed so early. You're probably planning to have a nightlife when you get back."

He didn't reply, and continued walking slowly.

Wen Yining didn't say anything, and they went their separate ways. She was behind him, keeping a distance, and her gaze would occasionally fall on him.

Upon arriving at the underground parking lot, Ye Qingchi let go of his girlfriend's hand. "Get in the car first, wait for me a bit."

Ling Ling asked, puzzled, "Where are you going?"

"Say a few words to Shen Yueze, then wait for me in the car."

Ling Ling hummed in agreement and didn't ask any further questions.

Then he called out to Shen Yueze, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, lit one, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Li Xiayi greeted them, "Bye-bye, let's hang out together again in a few days."

Shen Yueze remained indifferent, his gaze fixed on the passenger seat of his car, where Wen Yining had gotten in and was playing on her phone while waiting for him.

Ye Qingchi responded and nudged him with her elbow, "Why didn't you respond when someone told you that?"

He urged, "Hurry up."

Ye Qingchi followed his gaze and looked at Wen Yining inside the car. She was beautiful, but she frowned and said, "Chen Jiabai doesn't know yet, does he?"

"Um."

"What are you thinking? Huh? I thought Chen Jiabai cared about her a lot. He was even planning to marry her after graduation, but then they broke up."

She paused, staring at his calm and composed expression for a while. He seemed quite composed and collected.

"They're not married yet."

"It's not okay if you're not married,"

Ye Qingchi said speechlessly, "I really don't know what you're thinking. So many people are pursuing you, why does it have to be Wen Yining??"

He didn't reply.

"Is it really necessary for you to feel a sense of novelty all of a sudden? Chen Jiabai will definitely be uncomfortable, and no normal person would be happy about that."

Avoiding your best friend's partner is the most basic rule, regardless of whether you're male or female.

Ye Qingchi's mind was a bit confused. He remembered that he wasn't like this before. "Last year, there was that girl Qi Muyao was dating, what was her name again... She was quite sexy. She came to your room late at night. I could tell you were a little interested in her, but knowing that she had dated Qi Muyao, you just let it go, right?"

He put one hand in his pocket, his eyes expressionless, and listened patiently.

Ye Qingchi paced beside him, feeling a bit annoyed. She asked, puzzled, "Why not Wen Yining? What if they get back together? Chen Jiabai isn't the type to marry just anyone. You just want to sleep with her, but you're not going to get married. Why bother?"

“I think Chen Jiabai would never have imagined that you would do such a thing. He never dreamed that you would do such a thing. He trusted you so much and talked to you about everything, and then you slept with Wen Yining behind his back.”

Shen Yueze has a carefree and unrestrained personality, and he is very popular with the opposite sex. Everyone in their circle knows this, and indeed more than one person's girlfriend has tried to seduce him in private. However, he is quite serious and doesn't even bother to say more than a few words to other people's girlfriends.

Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Ye Qingchi was speechless.

Nodding, she punched him lightly. "You're pretty clear-headed, not the type to drag things out over a relationship. Just break it off as soon as possible."

After Wen Yining got into the car, she turned on the air conditioning and closed all the windows. She could see the two of them talking not far away, but she couldn't hear what they were saying. Ye Qingchi's expression was quite helpless, and his body language seemed to be expressing his emotions, so he was the one who was talking.

Shen Yueze barely replied, remaining calm and indifferent throughout.

It didn't last long, just a few minutes, and everyone went back to their cars.

She asked, "What's wrong?"

He turned the steering wheel and skillfully backed out of the parking space, saying, "I'm advising us to break up."

"You already know?"

"We're too familiar with each other."

"oh."

It's quite easy to tell something from them; they even went out together today.

He drove straight back to Zhaoshan Apartment, saying, "I'll stay at my place from now on."

She unbuckled her seatbelt, picked up her phone, hesitated for a second, and said, "Let's live separately."

We're not used to living together yet, since we're not even considered a couple.

Before getting out of the car, he glanced at those bare, long legs and bluntly said, "Next time, wear a skirt again, so I can just have sex with you without even taking it off."
