"Hoo..."
Around eight o'clock, Su Ke'er finally woke up. As soon as she opened her sleepy eyes, she saw Wan Yunting lying beside her. She immediately pounced forward, pressing herself into the man's arms, her small hands caressing his face...
"Uh, what are you doing? Messing with me so early in the morning..."
Wan Yunting woke up, wanting to catch up on some rest.
"Hehe, I just love pinching your face..."
Su Ke'er giggled happily and deliberately acted spoiled in Wan Yunting's arms...
"Alright, alright, get up quickly. See if Tong Xin has woken up."
Wan Yunting couldn't stand her. If she continued, they would end up exercising again.
"It's already half past eight. Sister Tong Xin left for work long ago."
Su Ke'er directly climbed onto Wan Yunting's back, having him carry her out of the room. As expected, Jiang Tong Xin was nowhere to be seen.
"Fine, you go take a bath quickly, then I'll take you out to play..."
The two of them messed around in the bathroom for a long time. It was almost noon before they were willing to go out. Promising to take the girl out to play, Wan Yunting put aside his work and took her out for the entire day. They returned in the evening...
"Brother Yunting, when will you come back to Hua Du City?"
The reluctant Su Ke'er held his arm, standing at the door of Jiang Tong Xin's house, unwilling to part.
"Well, the traditional Chinese medicine hospital is currently undergoing renovations. It will take about two months to complete, but don't worry, I'll come back to check on the progress in between. We'll get together then," Wan Yunting said with a smile.
"Okay, I know you're busy," Su Ke'er pouted and sighed.
Wan Yunting cupped her plump and cute cheeks and smiled, "Don't be unhappy. It will be fine once I'm done with this period."
"Mm-hmm..."
Su Ke'er nodded, smiling playfully.
"You're back?"
At this moment, Jiang Tong Xin also got off work and happened to meet them at the door. She asked, "Why aren't you going in?"
"Sister Tong Xin, you're off work! We were waiting for you," Su Ke'er teased with a smile.
Jiang Tong Xin rolled her eyes at her, but then glanced calmly at Wan Yunting before taking out her key and opening the door. Su Ke'er didn't want Wan Yunting to leave so soon and insisted on him going in...
"You guys chat. I'm going to take a bath."
Jiang Tong Xin took her pajamas and went to take a bath.
Wan Yunting and Su Ke'er were lingering and chatting in the living room. However, Jiang Tong Xin, in the bathroom, felt a little upset, the scene of her and the man being intimate the previous night flashing through her mind...
But thinking about her relationship with Su Ke'er, Jiang Tong Xin shook her head, dispelling all her worries...
When she came out, she found Wan Yunting sitting alone on the living room sofa, looking at his phone. Jiang Tong Xin asked curiously, "Where's Ke'er?"
"Mm, she's in the room video calling her mother," Wan Yunting turned his head and said to Jiang Tong Xin with an awkward smile.
"Oh."
Jiang Tong Xin put on a cold demeanor and nodded, then turned to go back to her room.
"Tong Xin..."
Wan Yunting couldn't help but call out to her and got up to go over...
Jiang Tong Xin felt a little nervous and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Wan Yunting, who had come before her, awkwardly scratched the back of his head and smiled, "It's about last night..."
Jiang Tong Xin said coldly again, "Don't you understand what I mean? I don't want Ke'er to know, so just pretend it never happened."
Wan Yunting raised an eyebrow. He didn't like Jiang Tong Xin's attitude. Seeing her about to turn into her room, he immediately grabbed her wrist, "Tong Xin, I understand what you mean, but please don't act so cold."
Jiang Tong Xin tried to shake off his hand, but for some reason, she couldn't muster the strength. Instead, Wan Yunting boldly pulled her into his embrace...
"You... what are you doing?"
Jiang Tong Xin suddenly panicked completely. Her delicate hands pushed against the man's chest, and she said nervously, "Ke'er is still in the room..."
"Why weren't you scared last night?"
Wan Yunting held her tightly, his sharp gaze fixed on Jiang Tong Xin, making her flustered and unable to look directly at him. She stammered, and finally, with a hint of anger, she snorted, "Yes, I was drunk last night and got confused, so I..."
"Are you sure it was confusion?" Wan Yunting's large hand pinched her chin, forcing her to face him...
Jiang Tong Xin's beautiful eyes were filled with emotion. She hadn't expected Wan Yunting's attitude to be so forceful, which made her stubborn heart tremble. She pursed her red lips and remained silent.
The two looked at each other again. Wan Yunting simply kissed her red lips. Jiang Tong Xin trembled as if struck, her mind going blank again, and her whole body went limp...
"Brother Yunting..."
Suddenly, Su Ke'er's voice came from over there...
Wan Yunting and Jiang Tong Xin at the door instantly came to their senses. They quickly separated, pretending nothing had happened, but Jiang Tong Xin's flushed cheeks and flustered eyes betrayed her...
"Sister Tong Xin, what were you two doing?"
Su Ke'er had called out to Wan Yunting before she even came out of the room, so she naturally hadn't seen them embracing and kissing...
"Nothing..."
Jiang Tong Xin was so nervous that her speech became incoherent. Wan Yunting calmly smiled and said, "Nothing, I was just asking Tong Xin about her promotion to deputy dean..."
"Ah, right..."
Jiang Tong Xin smiled unnaturally and then said, "Then Ke'er, you guys chat. I need to rest..."
After speaking, she quickly slipped back into her room and closed the door, her heart pounding nervously...
However, Su Ke'er's large eyes looked at Wan Yunting suspiciously and she said with a smile, "Brother Yunting, are you sure there's nothing going on with Sister Tong Xin?"
"No..."
Wan Yunting walked over to her, pulled Su Ke'er to the sofa in the living room, and said with a smile, "Are you hungry? How about we make a late-night snack?"
"I'm not hungry..."
Su Ke'er shook her head, hugged his arm, and asked again, "Tell me, are you eyeing Sister Tong Xin?"
Wan Yunting became a little nervous but still shook his head, "How could that be? You know she's a cold goddess. Ordinary men can't catch her eye."
"Hehehe, but Brother Yunting, you're not an ordinary man," Su Ke'er said with a laugh.
Wan Yunting rolled his eyes. Seeing that it was getting late, he said, "Alright Ke'er, I have to return to the capital tomorrow. I need to go back now."
"Alright."
Su Ke'er didn't keep him.
Regarding the matter between Wan Yunting and Jiang Tong Xin, she seemed to already know.
After Wan Yunting left, Su Ke'er went to knock on Jiang Tong Xin's door. This made her a little nervous, but she still opened the door and asked, "Ke'er, Yunting is gone?"
"Yes, he's returning to the capital tomorrow."
Su Ke'er flashed into her room and directly pounced onto the bed, turning her head and saying with a smile, "Sister Tong Xin, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"Mm, suit yourself," Jiang Tong Xin replied absentmindedly, nodding.
Su Ke'er smiled, "What's wrong? Still thinking about Brother Yunting?"
Jiang Tong Xin's expression instantly froze. Under Su Ke'er's gaze, she felt nervous and showed an unnatural expression, "Ke'er, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Hehe, Sister Tong Xin, I heard everything last night!" Su Ke'er sat up and said with a mischievous smile.
As soon as she said this, Jiang Tong Xin felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She remained stiff on the spot, and guilt and self-reproach immediately surged in her heart...
"Oh, Sister Tong Xin, don't be like this..."
Su Ke'er quickly pulled her and said, "I don't mean anything else. I'm even happy, because you and I like the same man!"
Jiang Tong Xin was stunned again by her words and looked at Su Ke'er in confusion.
Su Ke'er, who had pulled Jiang Tong Xin to sit on the bed, sighed and said, "You know, Brother Yunting has so many confidantes, especially Fang Yanxi and Gu Luotang. Their relationship with Brother Yunting is very good."
"Before, when I was in the capital, I felt very unhappy. I always felt that Brother Yunting didn't like me, and I couldn't blend in with Fang Yanxi and the others, so I came back to Hua Du City."
"But I know Brother Yunting doesn't dislike me. It's just that he has to divide his heart among other women, and I only get a small portion."
Hearing this, Jiang Tong Xin suddenly felt a little regretful. That guy was a super scumbag.
"Hehe, it's great now. If Sister Tong Xin and Brother Yunting really get together, we'll be good sisters," Su Ke'er said happily, holding Jiang Tong Xin's hand.
This made Jiang Tong Xin look at her strangely and say, "Ke'er, you don't blame me?"
"Why would I blame you?"
Su Ke'er pouted and smiled, "Anyway, Brother Yunting has quite a few confidantes. If I cared, I wouldn't have been with him long ago."
Jiang Tong Xin suddenly felt her worldview being shattered.
"Sister Tong Xin, do you genuinely like Brother Yunting?" Su Ke'er then asked.
"I don't know!"
Jiang Tong Xin shook her head and said very seriously, "I like him a little, but not like you, wanting to be with him forever."
"Ah, then last night..."
Su Ke'er was indeed heavily drunk last night and slept in her room until the middle of the night. She woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and heard the commotion from Jiang Tong Xin's room next door, so she knew what was going on.
Jiang Tong Xin said guiltily, "Perhaps I heard your commotion that night, and I drank again last night, which stirred up my feelings. But Ke'er, don't overthink it. I seduced him, he didn't take the initiative..."
"Hehe, it's okay..."
Su Ke'er waved her hand with a smile. In fact, she hoped Jiang Tong Xin would be with Wan Yunting forever, so she would have a sister and could compete with Fang Yanxi and Gu Luotang.
But it was clear that Jiang Tong Xin couldn't do that.
Her feelings for Wan Yunting were only good feelings and a little bit of liking.
The reason she had relations with him was that besides that one time she was drugged and forced to have relations with Wan Yunting...
But regarding relationships between men and women, Jiang Tong Xin only truly experienced that somewhat crazy feeling last night.
Therefore, Jiang Tong Xin would not be with Wan Yunting in the future, nor would she fight for a man with Su Ke'er.
She had her own life goals. Even if she didn't have a boyfriend and get married in the future, Jiang Tong Xin would live a good life alone with the dignity of a woman, blooming her colorful life.
Su Ke'er could also feel her thoughts, so she didn't force anything.
The reason she didn't want to stay in the capital was precisely because she felt she couldn't compare to Fang Yanxi and Gu Luotang.
Therefore, Su Ke'er also wanted to change herself for the man, at least to gain the attention of Wan Yunting's family!
