194: Deeply shocked - 1 (Bonus Chapter)

Lin Wanxing watched Su Ning's retreating figure as she returned to her room, letting out a sigh that was a mix of laughter and tears. She then turned to Jiang Ye, her tone tinged with embarrassment and apology:

"Jiang Ye, don't think too much about it. Xiao Su is just a bit careless sometimes and doesn't have any bad intentions. She probably really just forgot for a moment. Actually, she's quite a simple person, she..."

"..."

Jiang Ye watched Lin Wanxing's efforts to make excuses for her roommate and maintain "roommate harmony," and his lips couldn't help but twitch:

"Wanxing, what kind of person do you... think I am?"

Lin Wanxing was taken aback by his sudden question.

She looked at Jiang Ye, and everything that had happened during this time subconsciously flashed through her mind... "Jiang Ye, although you usually seem a bit... well, improper, at critical moments, I think you're a good man with principles, someone who can withstand temptation and remain unmoved."

Only... she hesitated for a moment. She had originally wanted to add "only a bit of a playboy," but suddenly realized that this "flaw" seemed particularly contradictory when placed alongside the previous evaluation of being a "good man," and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned herself.

"..."

Listening to Lin Wanxing's evaluation of him, Jiang Ye truly felt a mix of laughter and tears in his heart.

The term "good man" depended on how it was defined. If it were based on the standard of "having principles (related to interests) and being able to withstand temptation (temporarily)," then he could barely be considered one.

As for being unmoved... Sigh, Lin Wanxing's judgment of people was truly as "accurate" as ever.

The two of them fell into a temporary silence.

Before long, Su Ning walked out of her room again.

As soon as Lin Wanxing turned around, her contradictory thoughts about "good man" and "playboy" were instantly interrupted: "Xiao Su... you... why did you put on stockings?"

Su Ning had already changed out of her cartoon pajamas. On top, she wore a slightly slim-fitting knit sweater, paired with a plaid miniskirt on the bottom, and on her legs... was a pair of thin, sheer black stockings that traced the lines of her straight, slender legs exceptionally well.

Su Ning caught a glimpse of Jiang Ye's expression across from her, which was starting to look a bit unnatural again. She felt a surge of secret satisfaction and waved her hand as if it were perfectly normal:

"Oh, isn't today a big day? It's a Hall Battle, after all. There has to be a sense of ceremony."

Lin Wanxing looked at Su Ning's "battle outfit" and then at Jiang Ye, whose eyes were wandering. For a moment, she was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say, so she could only force her attention onto Su Ning's phone:

"Xiao Su, has... has it started?"

Su Ning also took the opportunity to sit on the sofa and glanced at her phone.

The screen was already split in two. On the left was the interface of Wen Yus Girlfriend, and on the right was a male hall called Yaosheng Palace.

"Yeah, it's started. This is the PK screen."

Lin Wanxing leaned in closer and pointed to the first avatar in the mic queue: "This 'Yaoyao' is you, right?"

"Yes, that's me."

Just as Su Ning responded, a WeChat voice message popped up on her phone; it was from Sister Zhi Xia.

She casually tapped it to play:

"Yaoyao, when will your Brother Ye arrive? Sweet Potato just told me that there are a few quite powerful big sisters in that male hall opposite us; they'll probably hit a million sound waves. If Brother Ye plans to go for 50, tell him to just go for it right at the start. Don't wait until the point gap is too large, or he might see no hope and not bother."

Su Ning glanced at the Dog man across from her and smiled as she held down the voice button: "Don't worry, Sister Zhi Xia. Let the other side go first. Brother Ye said... it's a guaranteed win."

"Really? Guaranteed win? Then confirm with him again roughly when he can come so I can coordinate the rhythm with the other side's Hall Manager."

"Brother Ye said he can arrive anytime; he's right here. Don't worry."

Seeing Su Ning put down her phone, Lin Wanxing blinked and asked curiously, "A million sound waves? That's a hundred thousand yuan, right? He... he's going to gift you that much again?"

She paused, as if remembering something: "Eh? Don't you need to quickly send him a message to confirm?"

Su Ning raised an eyebrow and was about to say it wasn't necessary when Jiang Ye, sitting opposite her, suddenly gave a light cough.

She glanced at the simple-minded Lin Wanxing beside her and instantly understood what he meant.

Why hide it from Lin Wanxing on purpose?

That was far too simple! Just like how this Dog man had hidden his double identity from her before!

Presumably, the next target for this guy's "claws" was this hot-bodied, simple-minded yoga instructor beside her!

He wanted to maintain a pure and simple image of himself to make it easier to win her over later!

Su Ning curled her lip and picked up her phone: "Oh, right, I should tell him again."

She tapped on the pinned "Brother Ye" avatar and was immediately stunned—the other party's WeChat avatar had changed to a cartoon puppy.

But when she had looked half an hour ago, it was clearly a bowl of white rice!

Su Ning blinked and then glanced speechlessly at Jiang Ye, who was looking down at his phone, pretending it had nothing to do with him.

This guy... is really meticulous!

It was definitely because Lin Wanxing also had his WeChat, so to prevent being exposed, he had quickly changed his avatar to cover it up.

She tapped on "Brother Ye's" profile page to take a look, and sure enough, even his WeChat name had changed from "Brother Ye" to... "Stop Being So Flirty"?!!!

Su Ning instantly gritted her teeth, feeling both angry and amused.

Seeing her strange expression, Lin Wanxing also leaned over to look and asked curiously, "Huh? Why do you have your big spender saved as... 'Dog man'?"

Su Ning was startled, but seeing Jiang Ye's face instantly darken because of those words, she felt strangely satisfied, experiencing a sense of pleasure from successful revenge.

She casually typed a few words and explained with a smile, "This is a nickname! A nickname! It's... it's just that I hope he can be like a loyal dog and always stay by my side... Oh, let's not talk about that, let's watch the PK! Sister Wanxing, you should get on TikTok too, search for 'Yaosheng Palace,' and go into the opposite hall. It's more interesting to compare both sides!"

Lin Wanxing gave an "mm" and pulled out her phone, entering the male hall on the other side as Su Ning had suggested.
