Jiang Mian originally thought that after adding each other on WeChat, He Yubai would be unable to resist sending her many more messages.

But this time, even with WeChat added, neither she nor the other person initiated a conversation.

The chat window only displays messages from the system such as "You have successfully added the other party as a friend".

Jiang Mian didn't pay much attention, thinking that Young Master He was just busy driving and didn't have time to send messages.

I guess when I get back to the dorm, I'll definitely have to ask her "Are you asleep?" or send her a "Goodnight" message or something.

Putting down her phone, Jiang Mian felt smug about her guess and couldn't help but hum a tune.

Her graceful figure was reflected in the hotel room window as she hummed a tune and swayed her slender waist like a water snake.

Feeling that the room was a bit cold, Jiang Mian picked up the remote control and turned on the air conditioner to turn on some heat.

Perhaps no one really knows for sure whether winter has left.

Anyway, I just feel cold, so I'll turn on the air conditioner.

Turning around and going into the bathroom to take a shower, Jiang Mian guessed in her heart that He Yubai's message would definitely arrive as expected after she finished showering.

Feeling as if everything was under control, Jiang Mian was in an even better mood and hummed a little tune as she walked into the bathroom.

But her plan was quickly thwarted.

Including the time spent washing and drying my hair, it took almost an hour in total.

But when she opened her phone, the lock screen was filled with boring browser ads.

There wasn't a single message on WeChat, let alone one from He Yubai.

Contrary to expectations, Jiang Mian suddenly felt a sense of disappointment, as if her hopes had been dashed.

"You big pig's trotter!"

She suddenly scoffed, "You were the one who wanted to add me on WeChat, and now you're acting all high and mighty?"

After muttering to herself, Jiang Mian felt that she might be being a bit too dramatic.

Although her relationship with He Yubai wasn't exactly innocent, it wasn't exactly romantic either.

It's perfectly normal that the other party isn't sending her messages.

Jiang Mian blamed herself for the mistakes of the past. She was young and ignorant back then and read too many romance novels about indecisiveness, which led her to be able to guess a lot of the consequences of even the smallest things.

Damn it!

Jiang Mian was indignant and muttering bad things about He Yubai.

In the other dormitory, He Yubai was also holding his phone, looking at the WeChat chat window with Jiang Wan.

After thinking it over, he let out a deep breath.

Then he resolutely withdrew.

It wasn't for any other reason than that he recently came across a post teaching dating methods, such as how a guy who's been "flirting" for too long should win over a girl he likes.

It says that playing hard to get isn't just a tactic used by girls; boys can use it too, and if used properly, it might be several times more effective than what girls use!

Therefore, He Yubai could only endure it and wanted to conduct an experiment.

The video was so convincing that He Yubai, a complete novice in love, actually believed it.

Although there was an element of gambling involved, whether it was a desperate gamble or not, he felt it was time for him to exercise restraint.

For example, he was obsessed with Jiang Wan.

Despite being separated by a screen, the two surprisingly shared some similar thoughts.

That is: I must never be the first to speak!

Because of this feeling of loss, Jiang Mian couldn't sleep soundly all night.

She even mocked herself inwardly, thinking that humans are indeed incredibly perverse creatures.

When others keep throwing themselves at you, you don't want to, don't want to, and aren't willing to!

But when others suddenly ignore you, you feel uneasy, as if there is a void in your heart.

After thinking about it, Jiang Mian felt indignant, thinking that love was indeed a terrible thing and should be avoided!

She's only in the early stages of almost forming a habit. If she really becomes dependent on this feeling, she'll probably feel even worse than she does now!

Jiang Mian patted her face to clear her mind, then closed her eyes, forcing herself to stop thinking and go to sleep.

She has to go to her part-time job tomorrow; she's a real, down-to-earth person!

Feelings can't be compared to money!

Get out of her mind right now!

The next morning, she woke up with a bang.

Perhaps because I have something on my mind, I can't sleep soundly.

Upon opening her eyes, Jiang Mian acted faster than her brain could process, immediately reaching for her phone on the bedside table and turning on the screen.

Hmm, just like I saw last night, there wasn't a single message from WeChat.

In this world, the only people who care about her the most, who endure her cold attitude every day and still tirelessly send her messages, are those browser ads that are bored out of their minds!

Overnight, more than twenty were recorded!

There wasn't a single WeChat message. I'm tired. Let's just destroy it!

After fidgeting in bed for a while, I got up, counting down the time; I couldn't afford to be late for my part-time job.

After changing my clothes and going downstairs, I ran into Zhou Ziyu and He Yubai.

Holy crap!?

The moment Jiang Mian saw these two people, she could hardly believe her eyes.

She looked at the two people opposite her, and they noticed her too.

Zhou Ziyu frowned, while He Yubai looked surprised. He was surprised that Jiang Wan was actually staying at a hotel and hadn't lied to him!

Before Jiang Mian could speak, Zhou Ziyu suddenly stepped forward and looked behind her: "Are you alone?"

"nonsense!"

Jiang Mian was annoyed by his questioning tone, mainly because He Yubai had kept her up all night.

Zhou Ziyu has really walked right into the line of fire. The fact that she didn't immediately go berserk is already a sign of her respect!

Zhou Ziyu asked in surprise, "You're staying in a hotel alone?"

"You live by the sea?" Jiang Mian rolled her eyes at him. "It's none of your business how many of us stay in a hotel."

"That's not what I meant. I was just worried... that you, a girl, might be bullied in a hotel."

Jiang Mian resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Are all the people in the world just bored and have nothing better to do?!

Why does everyone have to bully her?!

But seeing Zhou Ziyu's strange expression, Jiang Mian regretted that she understood instantly. She pointed at his nose and said, "Let me tell you, I'm staying in a hotel alone. Get rid of all those messy thoughts in your head!"

After seriously and earnestly proving his innocence, Zhou Ziyu visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Mian: "???"

Depend on!

With such exaggerated movements, are you really afraid she's blind and can't see it?!
