234: Chapter 234 Many People Can't Sleep

"Okay, okay, get up now."

Zou Luyao bounced her leg, signaling Zhao Xiaoshuai to get up quickly.

Zhao Xiaoshuai had originally wanted to pretend to be asleep and linger for a while longer, but he really hadn't been able to control his breathing earlier; it was too obvious to keep up the act.

He had no choice but to get up, albeit reluctantly.

Crossing over the peaks, he saw a face flushed with crimson.

"I'm going back to sleep if there's nothing else." Without waiting for Zhao Xiaoshuai to answer, Zou Luyao stepped into her slippers and ran off with a pitter-patter sound.

Watching Zou Luyao flee in such a panic, the corners of Zhao Xiaoshuai's mouth curled up slightly.

Female college students are still more fun.

Zou Luyao couldn't actually tell whether the hot breath she felt earlier was just how his breath normally was, or if it had become that way because someone had developed certain thoughts.

Therefore, she wasn't too angry, just a bit embarrassed, which is why she had fled back to her room in such a rush and thrown herself onto the soft, comfortable large bed.

"Ah, this bed is so comfortable, the quilt is so soft, and there's such a pleasant fragrance. If only I could sleep here for the rest of my life..."

Lying on the comfortable bed, Zou Luyao thought she should have fallen asleep quickly, but her mind kept replaying her recent experiences, and instead, she became more and more awake.

And in all those experiences, without exception, Zhao Xiaoshuai's figure was present.

Tossing and turning in bed, she couldn't sleep, so she threw on some clothes, opened the door, and walked out to the balcony to look at the sky.

After all, it was located in a luxury residential area within the city, and affected by the city lights, one couldn't see a very "clean" sky.

However, this feeling of looking up at the sky and looking down to see her own garden was something she yearned for very much.

From childhood to now, except when she was in the bathroom, she had almost no private space to speak of.

Everything had to be done under her mother's gaze and in accordance with her mother's requirements; comparing the two, it was hard not to be intoxicated by the yearning for this kind of free and easy life.

"I really want to live here forever."

... ...

"I really want to stay in that luxury mansion for one night."

At the same moment, in a different location, Sun Yingxue uttered words extremely similar to those of Zou Luyao.

At this time, she was lying on her bed in a four-person dormitory, looking at sets of photos she had kept on her phone in the dark.

Unlike Zou Luyao, she had briefly lived in a large luxury mansion when she was young, and she had even temporarily occupied a room in an even larger villa estate.

She was someone who knew exactly what that kind of extremely luxurious life was like.

Therefore, once she saw an opportunity to live that kind of life again, she would be exceptionally excited and yearning.

Originally, according to her plan, she was going to direct a grand drama for Zhao Xiaoshuai to see.

Broadly speaking, it was to get him to agree to come to the school to pick her up through contact, and then "coincidentally" have several simps, having received the "wrong" signal, muster the courage to confess to her.

It would be a grand confession scene, and then at that moment, she would resolutely leave with the suddenly appearing Zhao Xiaoshuai, providing him with full emotional value to build favor.

Afterward, she would secretly create public opinion, spreading some unpleasant rumors, and finally, she would let him know with a pitiful persona that her life had been greatly affected, which would allow her to gain a lot of his favor.

Such a girl who was "bullied" for his sake would definitely arouse his great protective instincts, and he would subconsciously want to compensate her for something. For example, a house, a car.

But all of this was ruined.

That junior named Zou Luyao—she had previously thought of her as just an ordinary girl who was pretty but had no scheming mind.

But after this incident, she realized she was wrong, terribly wrong.

This was a person with deep schemes, no less than her own.

She had used this set of tricks first, and if she used it again, the sense of deliberateness would be too heavy, making it very easy for Zhao Xiaoshuai to notice and feel repulsion.

Sun Yingxue knew the taboos of these big bosses who controlled everything.

She temporarily called off the plan, and she still had to reject the confessions of those two backup options in person tomorrow.

Losing two good cards made her already shallow fishpond even more strained.

With her level, after a year and a half in university, her fishpond depth shouldn't have been just what it was now.

But to maintain her "innocent flower" persona, she was restricted everywhere and could only be like this.

She was very sensible; she knew what kind of girl was most likely to marry into a wealthy family with an ordinary background.

"I have to come up with another plan, and it must be soon."

After all, having had some exposure since childhood, Sun Yingxue knew that if these rich people wanted to find a mistress, they would generally only find one they were satisfied with for a specific type.

If there was a more satisfying one, the original one would only be replaced and turned into a plaything. Looking at her mother, she knew what the fate of a plaything was.

She had to at least become a mistress.

And Zou Luyao's persona was too similar to hers, and currently, it seemed she didn't have any obvious advantages.

The other party had looks not inferior to hers, was a year younger than her, and unlike the state of pulling and pushing she was currently in, they had already caused a scandal...

Under all these unfavorable factors, she couldn't help but be anxious.

"It seems I must change my approach; I can only take the initiative. Although this means I might not have a chance to compete for the position of the legal wife, I can't worry about that now."

Having made up her mind, Sun Yingxue took out her phone and clicked on the pinned contact.

"Brother, I miss you."

Not long after, the other side replied with a sentence, "Have you decided?"

Sun Yingxue certainly knew what the other person was asking. Although she had an answer in her heart, she deliberately waited a long time before replying: "Mm."

"Come to my house tomorrow."

"Okay. [Super happy kitten emoji.jpg]"

... ...

At this moment, Zhao Xiaoshuai was lying on a reclining massage chair, enjoying a foot washing service from Xu Yuyan and a head massage from Guan Xiaosu.

"I heard Sister Hong's foot massage parlor has opened?"

"What Sister Hong's foot massage parlor? Everyone is well aware that Sister Hong is just a store manager; isn't this business all yours?"

"You've really learned how to talk now."

"What, do you only feel happy if I act like I did in high school, ignoring you? Should I try it?"

"Hehe, never mind, I think you're fine the way you are now. How is your mother recovering?"

"Thanks to you, she'll be able to be discharged in a while."

Now, Xu Yuyan had completely seen her situation clearly and could correctly position her identity, so there was no need to continue punishing her.

"As for the money you owe, go find Sister Hong tomorrow and have her settle it for you. But don't let it happen again, do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuyan beamed with joy immediately, "Finally, I can eat something good. I don't mind for myself, I'm mainly just afraid you won't be satisfied, right?"

Just at this moment, Zou Luyao, who couldn't sleep and was walking around the mansion, heard her name and sensitively followed the sound, happening to see this scene.

"Who are they?"
