Chapter 30: Midnight Movie
-
Shen Yueze switched to a different song, and the song playing from the surround sound system by the pool instantly became ambiguous and erotic, with explicit and straightforward lyrics, a seductive and frivolous melody, and an atmosphere of lingering intimacy filling the air.
It's just a little H song.
Britney Spears.
I just want to dance with you.
Every time they dimmed the lights
I just want to do my best for you.
To confess my love to you in public.
We can indulge in our debauchery.
Just act as if no one else is around.
We kept swaying,”
...
...
After creating the right atmosphere, they went to a restaurant and ordered a bunch of drinks, specifically looking for those that would make you drunk easily. He knew Xie Yuchen's house like the back of his hand.
Besides these, I also put a few condom sets in my pocket, intending to give them to Youyou later. If Chen Jiabai really can't hold on, then I'll have to prepare some of these things.
Shen Yueze felt that condoms alone were not enough, so he put the whiskey he was holding on the table.
I went back into Xie Yuchen's bedroom and rummaged through the closet. Inside were a bunch of colorful little boxes, toys, and lingerie, which were obviously gifts from Ye Qingchi. These people are all quite straightforward and have always been open about this kind of thing.
I found a bottle of lubricant in the second cabinet; it was still unopened. I took it with me.
-
Xie Yuchen was shocked to see him take out so much alcohol. "What are you doing? Can you finish it all? Didn't you say last week that you wanted to take care of your health and that drinking too much is bad for your health?"
He ignored her and glanced at the pool. Chen Jiabai had gone into the water, and the girls were right next to him. Youyou even looked back at him, indicating that things were going well.
Sure enough, Chen Jiabai also liked girls with this type of appearance.
Shen Yueze felt that nine out of ten men around him liked this type.
Youyou and Chen Jiabai had a swimming contest, then Youyou pretended to choke, coughing a few times while clutching her chest. Her innocent, doe-like eyes particularly evoked a man's protective instincts.
Chen Jiabai's gaze followed downwards, unconsciously landing on her cleavage.
Youyou was still wearing a three-point bikini, with very little fabric. Chen Jiabai glanced at her a few more times and then asked, "How about it? Why don't you go upstairs to rest for a while and get something to eat?"
Youyou said, "It's okay," her eyes glistening with a mixture of innocence and desire that few men could resist.
Shen Yueze lay on the shore, lounging in a deck chair, watching the scene with considerable satisfaction.
At the same time, the phone in my pocket vibrated several times, making its presence extremely noticeable.
Chen Jiabai's cell phone.
He took his phone out of his pocket, glanced at it, and saw it was a message from Wen Yining.
The password hadn't been changed; it was still the one from high school. He tried it casually and cracked it.
There were several unread voice messages and text messages, clearly indicating that he had just interrupted the couple's passionate conversation.
Shen Yueze scrolled through the chat history without restraint, browsing through each message, including the voice messages.
She: [I feel like I can't live without you anymore.]
I can't sleep, I really want to hear your voice.
Remember to eat on time, and think of me on time.
...
After meeting you, I haven't considered anyone else.
I don't want you to work so hard.
Brother, can we meet tomorrow?
I opened a voice message from yesterday, and it started with a slightly sweet voice saying, "Brother, I just took a shower. It's so hot in the dorm. Every time I take a shower, it's like being in a sauna. The air conditioning doesn't work."
The photo also includes a mirror selfie taken after a shower, showing her wearing a tight-fitting slip dress that accentuates her curves and gives her fair, rosy skin.
Shen Yueze almost fainted when he heard her call him "brother".
He had actually added her on WeChat, but they hadn't chatted much.
The date remains from last week.
He: [Was it fun going out to sea?]
She: [Mm.]
He said: "Chen Mo said the bed in your room is uncomfortable, so we're changing to the one on the second floor."
She: [Oh.]
Him: [Are you sunburned?]
She: [No.]
He: [Come over for breakfast.]
She: [Okay.]
Him: [When is your birthday?]
I didn't reply to him at all; I don't know if it was intentional or if I just forgot.
It was obvious that Wen Yining's perfunctory and indifferent attitude towards him was overflowing from the screen.
/
Honestly, Shen Yueze has never run into trouble with girls. Basically, for every sentence he says, a girl will chime in with ten sentences, and then turn around and become curious about him, care about him, and find topics to talk about.
There's another type of introverted girl who's too shy to talk to him directly, but she'll try her best to learn everything about him from others and find out all his likes and dislikes.
He knows everything about his favorite songs, movies, foods, entertainment, pets, colors, zodiac signs, and the girls who have a crush on him; he even knows them by heart.
Back in high school, he once skipped breakfast and casually mentioned it. For the next month, someone would put prepared sandwiches in his desk drawer, sometimes steamed buns, bread, desserts, porridge, and so on.
He didn't know who that person was until graduation. He could guess that it was a girl who had a crush on him, but he didn't know exactly who it was.
After all, you wouldn't notice it normally, and the level of attention they receive is about the same. With his overly flamboyant face, it's perfectly normal for girls to take a second look at him.
He had actually suspected a girl in his class and asked her directly if she had given it to him, thinking of treating her to a meal since a month was not a short time, but she said no.
There are quite a few similar cases. People do good deeds anonymously, and if you don't tell them, they'll never guess, and you'll gradually get used to it.
-
Shen Yueze was well aware of the convenience and benefits that good looks brought.
Honestly, when he goes out to eat, if the girl in front of him thinks he's handsome, she's willing to go hungry and give him her empty table first.
Therefore, someone like Wen Yining will encounter no shortage of men who fawn over her, and she will also receive no shortage of small favors.
There are plenty of pretty girls, but top-tier beauties are rare in any country. Ordinary people rarely see anyone with the same looks as celebrities in real life.
-
He actually understood why she was so indifferent to him; she was probably already indifferent and used to guys flirting with her.
However, after reading her chat history with Chen Jiabai, the screen was filled with "Is it okay? Is it alright? Is it possible?"
There were even a bunch of affectionate "brother," "husband," etc.
Her voice is natural and lively, not forced, which makes it easy for men to soften their hearts. Paired with her face, I guess no one could resist her.
Right now, he could already picture her beneath him, begging him and calling him "brother."
Men are quite susceptible to this kind of thing; not only Chen Jiabai is susceptible, but he is too.
Now I finally understand why Chen Jiabai was so easily swayed by her. If Wen Yining were to act cute and charming towards him like that, there's nothing he wouldn't agree to.
-
Back at the pool, he came up with another game: have the girls and boys stand in a row, and he'd have a bunch of those little plastic rings toss games.
Shen Yueze: "Chen Jiabai throws a ring, and whoever gets it has to drink with him."
Xie Yuchen and Jiang Lin were also downstairs. "Wasn't the rule the same as before that you had to sleep with someone?"
Shen Yueze said flippantly, "If you want to sleep with him, I won't stop you."
Actually, going out to play is a great way to relieve stress. In the six months since Chen Jiabai started his business, he has had very few days to go out and have fun. He doesn't have much time, and he also has to date. He doesn't even have enough time to spend with Wen Yining, let alone play with other people. However, before this, they had spent a lot of time together.
The outdoor lights turned a dark purple, creating an atmosphere similar to that of a nightclub—ambiguous and intimate, perfect for something to happen.
Youyou was already itching to go and stood in the very center.
Wearing an eye mask, Chen Jiabai sat by the pool and threw the ring in his hand into the water by feel.
The first person I hit was Youyou. Not only did I have to drink with him, but I also had to perform a show.
Shen Yueze began to create opportunities, "Can you dance? Dance something a little sexy."
He understands Chen Jiabai: for a proper marriage, one should find someone simple and innocent, but deep down, he can't resist sexy and charming women.
Or rather, it's not just Chen Jiabai; most men are like that.
Youyou said, "Yes, you can play the classic 'Worth It'."
Dancing alone wasn't fun, so she called two girlfriends to join her. Wearing bikinis and still dripping wet, they did dance moves—twisting their waists, swaying their hips, squatting, touching their legs—many sexy moves from jazz dance.
They have good figures, and their bodies sway when they jump.
Uh huh I'm worth it
I'm worth a try.
Gimme gimme I'm worth it
My darling, give yourself to me, I'm worth a try.
Give it to me, I'm worth it.
Offer yourself to me; I am worthy of your consideration.
Baby, I'm worth it.
Baby, I'm worth a try.
Several boys were getting a little restless watching. Jiang Lin whistled and drank to calm his agitation.
I couldn't even sit still on the sofa. "This girl named Youyou, she's really good at dancing. She's the best dancer I've ever seen."
Xie Yuchen recalled their interaction in the pool earlier, noting that Youyou and Chen Jiabai had interacted the most. "She's got a crush on Chen Jiabai."
She was indeed pleasing to the eye, and Chen Jiabai was admiring her intently; she was quite cute.
She has an innocent face, but she's very seductive when she dances.
Shen Yueze hummed in agreement, feeling that he had achieved some of his goal. Chen Jiabai had feelings for Youyou, which was within his expectations.
Ye Qingchi handed him a glass of mixed cocktail. "Try it, I made it."
He raised the glass and glanced at the color of the liquid reflected in it.
Whiskey, vodka, tamarind, lemon juice.
Seeing that he looked both relaxed and serious, without showing any impatience, Ye Qingchi realized he was quite satisfied with the girls and asked, "Which one have you taken a fancy to?"
After all, today's gathering was specially prepared for him. Ye Qingchi felt that he would find a girlfriend tonight. He knew how unrestrained and sensual his brother was.
Shen Yueze didn't reply. At this moment, Jiang Lin asked the girl, "You can do a striptease, right? Come on, do a striptease. Youyou is so good at dancing. Damn, can you let me see the world?"
Shen Yueze kicked him, "Go home and let your girlfriend jump."
Otherwise, it would disrupt his plans.
They then continued playing the ring toss game, with Chen Jiabai still throwing the rings.
Three times in a row, Youyou was caught in the trap.
In reality, it was Shen Yueze who threw it when he couldn't see it.
Chen Jiabai took off his blindfold and laughed, "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. You shouldn't drink anymore. You've already drunk a whole glass, or your stomach will feel uncomfortable."
He handed the bath towel to Youyou.
Youyou's swimsuit straps were about to come undone, and she stared at Chen Jiabai with her doe-like eyes, "Brother, help me tie it."
Then Chen Jiabai put down his wine glass and started to tie it for her.
Shen Yueze glanced at the two of them and deliberately said, "She didn't eat when she came. She was cheated out of money by the company she had just signed with, and now she owes more than 100,000 yuan. She has trouble finding food and lodging. She's a very pitiful girl."
Youyou blinked twice. She wasn't as miserable as he made her out to be; she had no debt whatsoever. She just wanted to buy luxury goods and exchange her body for convenience.
Moreover, she had already eaten. It was a private chef's meal booked by this young master Shen Yueze. If she went to the restaurant, it would cost 1888 yuan per person. The food was exceptionally delicious, and she ate very comfortably.
But she understood the purpose of his lie, so she immediately put on a wronged and pitiful expression, her eyes wet, like a stray animal, and said, "I expected to drink after I arrived, so I didn't eat anything."
Chen Jiabai softened almost instantly, overwhelmed with guilt. In reality, most girls like this didn't come from well-off families.
If it were good, how could someone possibly wear a swimsuit and dance a sexy dance? Even if it's voluntary, no one forced them, and everyone gets what they want, it's not surprising that they might have a pitiful background.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? If you had, I wouldn't have played the ring toss game with you. Stop drinking, and stop drinking cocktails. Let's go eat something first."
After Chen Jiabai went to the indoor kitchen and walked away, Shen Yueze said to her, "If you're going to do an act, you have to do the whole thing, you know?"
Youyou actually admired him a lot, "How do you understand boys' psychology so well?"
"Nonsense, I'm a man."
"Yeah, hahaha..."
She chuckled, "But fabricating a tragic backstory is so outdated, isn't it? Those were the tricks used by escorts back then."
"It's never out of style, just try putting yourself in someone else's shoes—"
"When you go to the bar, you meet a really handsome little boy who's not even an adult yet. He's being forced to dance and drink. He tells you he has an abusive father, a mother with cancer, a younger sister in school, and a broken home."
"Don't you pity him? Will you give him money?"
Youyou couldn't help but imagine it for a moment, and she understood. She really felt a little sympathy for him. "I would probably spend all my meager savings on this simple, handsome, and pitiful boy."
Shen Yueze felt that the time was right, and that the two of them were somewhat interested in each other, so he gave them a final instruction: "By the way, if he asks your age, just say you're 17 and still in high school."
This easily evokes a man's sympathy and protective instincts.
Even a bastard like him thinks sleeping with a minor is a bit much, let alone Chen Jiabai.
Youyou frowned and worried for a few seconds, feeling that if you told one lie, you would need countless lies to cover it up.
"What if, I mean, what if, I were to become his girlfriend, and then it turns out it was all a lie??"
Then there's absolutely no trust left.
Shen Yueze was sending a message on Chen Jiabai's WeChat, his eyes downcast, and said casually, "I'll just get you a fake ID. I told you, if we're going to do this, we have to go all the way."
"He's not some easy-to-fool rich kid. The only thing you can use is his sympathy, understand?"
After sending the message to Wen Yining, Shen Yueze gave her a cool glance and suddenly regretted using her. She wasn't smart enough, not cunning enough, and still inexperienced.
"Tsk, you really need to go to some socialite training class, otherwise you won't be able to hook up with a rich second-generation."
There's no way to change people right now, so let's give it a try. It's not like we only have one chance.
Youyou was very self-aware and didn't refute him, feeling that what he said made sense.
“I’ve heard of socialite classes, but they’re so expensive. The training fees are too high, and I don’t have enough money. Some people even exaggerate and say that if you go there, you can become a superstar’s wife. Hahaha, but it costs HK$80,000 per class.”
"You still want me to pay you money?"
"No, no."
He waved his hand leisurely and smiled.
"By the way, my real name is Xia Wei. You can call me that from now on. But in front of Chen Jiabai, I'll still call you Youyou. I'm worried he might investigate me."
When they're out and about, they usually give themselves a fake name; it's a necessary habit for gold diggers.
Even as a live streamer, I never want my parents and friends to see my stream.
"Um."
After waiting for Wen Yining's reply, Shen Yueze put Chen Jiabai's phone back in his pocket.
As they entered from the outside, passing by the restaurant, Chen Jiabai was making noodles for Xia Wei. Afterwards, he walked away from the large apartment with a sense of relief.

Film Academy
Accommodation building.
Wen Yining had just come from the dormitory bathroom. She had just finished showering, and the room was filled with steam, making it unbearably hot and stuffy. The air conditioner was of little use.
Her roommate, Geng Chutong, was playing on her tablet. She glanced at her and said with dissatisfaction, "Why didn't you close the door? The room is already hot."
She forgot, her phone rang, and she immediately went to close the bathroom door to prevent the steam inside from spreading out.
After closing the door, Geng Chutong saw water stains all over the floor and continued to complain about Wen Yining's living habits, "You've made water everywhere. Don't forget to wipe it up later. Last time, my book fell on the floor and it almost got soaked by your coffee."
Dai Anning, biting into an apple, said speechlessly, "Why are you so fussy?"
Geng Chutong rolled her eyes at her and said irritably, "This isn't the time for you to criticize me for making the house dirty."
Lou Xinyue stopped the minor argument, saying, "I've cleaned up the mess, stop talking."
Wen Yining rushed out because she received a message from her boyfriend asking her to go see a movie.
Chen Jiabai: [What time is your school's curfew?]
She put on her pajamas, her hair still dripping wet, but she quickly replied, "[9:30]."
After thinking for a moment, he sent another message: "But if you come to find me, any time is fine; we'll both sneak out through the side door."
A few seconds later, the other end replied: "[Going to see a midnight movie, come out in fifteen minutes, I'll be waiting for you at the door.]" Wen Yining was somewhat surprised, because Chen Jiabai had told her this afternoon that he had a get-together tonight and couldn't hang out with her.
She wanted to see this movie last month, and Chen Jiabai said he would take her to see it this weekend, but it turned out to be earlier than expected.
She hurriedly took off her pajamas, found a sexy mini skirt to change into, then seamless underwear, and a tight-fitting T-shirt that accentuated her figure.
The five or six pieces of clothing draped on the chair were knocked to the floor in her haste. She then told her roommate, "Help me tidy up, I'm running out of time, I have to go."
Dai Anning: "Who's looking for you? Chen Jiabai, or your brother?"
"Chen Jiabai".
"No wonder, I thought it was your brother, thinking he had something important to do."
“However, Chen Jiabai never used to call you out this late.”
Dai Anning remembers that it was usually around lunchtime in the afternoon, or on weekends when there were no classes, that she would call people out early in the morning to play all day, and then send them back around 8 o'clock, not too late.
They had all met Chen Jiabai; they had eaten together before, and he was particularly considerate.
They were also instructed not to go out late at night, and if they went to chaotic places, they must be accompanied by a boy, because they were too good-looking and were likely to encounter boys with bad intentions.
Of course, Chen Jiabai never dreamed that his most trusted brother, Shen Yueze, would become the bad guy he was talking about.
-
Lou Xinyue stared at her curvaceous figure and whistled lewdly, "You look so good in this dress, it makes your legs look long and thin. Of course, your legs are already beautiful."
"It's newly bought, and not expensive, only a few dozen yuan."
After she started dating, she loved buying clothes even more. Before, she mainly bought snacks and fruits, but now she wears different clothes every time. Chen Jiabai would take her out to eat at restaurants where the average cost per person is over a thousand, and she doesn't have to pay for the meal.
Lou Xinyue asked curiously, "I guess Chen Jiabai wants to take this a step further?"
Wen Yining smiled but didn't say anything.
She didn't know either.
It's been three months already, so she won't object if we really go to a hotel.
Here's something for you, don't forget to use it.
Lou Xinyue took out a small square box from her drawer, poured out the condoms, and then stuffed two condoms into her Chanel bag.
"Isn't this the kind of thing that most guys prepare?"
Wen Yining did not refuse and accepted it.
"Just in case, keep it as a backup."
"I'm leaving, bye-bye."
There wasn't enough time, so I quickly dried my hair for two minutes, leaving it damp, then quickly applied some lip gloss, grabbed my bag, and ran out the door.
The warm summer night breeze feels wonderful on my skin.
I ran all the way to the school gate, looked around, but couldn't find my boyfriend's black Audi S8.
Just as she was wondering, Shen Yueze appeared in front of her.
He was riding a red motorcycle, his black hair was messy, he was wearing a black jacket, and he had a frivolous and dissolute air about him. He had a helmet in his arms and said, "Chen Jiabai was called back by his company. He had some urgent business to deal with and asked me to take you to see a movie."
Wen Yining felt a pang of disappointment; her initial anticipation was overwhelmed by despair. She stood frozen in place, refusing to accept the helmet he offered.
"Then why didn't you tell me sooner or send me a WeChat message?"
If she had known, she wouldn't have come out.
Shen Yueze gestured with his chin, showing her his phone. "It's been sent, didn't you see it?"
Wen Yining took her phone out of her bag and found a message from Shen Yueze.
A minute ago, it said, "Your partner is busy, I'll go with you."
She frowned slightly, gripped her phone tightly, and hesitated whether to get into his car.
She glanced around the street, looking for trouble. There weren't many pedestrians or cars; it was quite quiet. She then raised her hand to brush her damp hair away from his direct gaze.
The night breeze followed his direction, and he could clearly smell her pleasant scent.
At her age, her body is just right, and she's just right in her youthful innocence.
My skin, fresh from a shower, was smooth and soft, still carrying the scent of shower gel. Drips of water lingered on my fair collarbone and pinkish knees.
Shen Yueze could smell the fragrance of her hair and immediately pictured her standing in the shower, undressing.
If it were in his large penthouse with a 150-square-meter bathroom, she could lie naked in his double bathtub and wait for him.
Men have always had vivid imaginations in this area, but he never expected to come up with so many lewd images.
His Adam's apple bobbed as he put the helmet on her and asked, "What shampoo do you use?"
Wen Yining paused for a second, just thinking about how to refuse, "Why are you asking this? The things I use are all very cheap, only a few dozen yuan, the kind you've never bought before."
After all, even the hand sanitizer in his house is a $570 brand called Tiptic, so there's no way he'd find anything under $100.
She tried to take off her helmet. "I'm not going. You should go back and rest too. You don't have to watch it today. It's just a movie."
Shen Yueze placed his right hand on her head, pressing down on the helmet to prevent her from taking it off. He had noticed the change in her emotions just now.
"Are you disappointed that Chen Jiabai isn't with you?"
She frowned slightly and remained silent, her expression resentful.
Thinking back to the day they went to sea, when he held her in the water, she felt uneasy. If Chen Jiabai misunderstood, it would be like losing the watermelon to pick up a sesame seed.
Shen Yueze stared at her feigned composure, already knowing what she was worried about, and said slowly and flippantly, "Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you today."

A note from the author:
Lyrics translation from Douyin
He has no intention of marrying Ning right now; he just wants to have some fun with her after getting her. It's just out of interest and lust.
That's his real bad point—he doesn't want to get married, and he wants to have fun.
Why didn't Ning choose Chen Jiabai, who could marry her?
