109: I can't shake them off.

Wu Fan's lips curled into a slight smile. "There's too much. As long as you need it, it's inexhaustible and endless."

Liu Lei's face instantly flushed crimson, and her heart began pounding rapidly, "thump, thump, thump..." She unconsciously pursed her lips, feeling somewhat lost.

The moment she clicked 'receive money' just now, she had subconsciously accepted Wu Fan, and had already lowered her guard.

But with him in this current state, she really didn't know what to do.

It seemed a little too fast, yet it also felt just right. It was as if not resolving the issue for him would make her feel guilty.

For a man to express himself so frankly, it at least showed he had strong feelings for her.

Between a man and a woman, if there is no desire, what kind of love can there be?

A so-called love expert once said on a television program that if a man doesn't crave a woman's body, then all the love he professes is weak and pale.

That seems to make sense.

She suddenly thought of Zhou Tong, but strangely, she felt no guilt, nor did she feel anything for him anymore.

Did she no longer like Zhou Tong?

Was she only with him to maintain the boring, false reputation of being the 'Golden Couple' that her classmates had bestowed upon them?

She lowered her gaze and glanced at Wu Fan again. He... she felt...

Seeing that Liu Lei hadn't said anything, still standing dumbfounded in the same spot with a charming expression, Wu Fan understood about seventy or eighty percent of what she was thinking.

He stepped forward and immediately pulled her into his embrace.

Liu Lei let out a soft "Ah..."

Wu Fan smelled the faint jasmine fragrance on her hair and couldn't help but kiss the top of her head.

When his sight fell upon her slightly panting red lips, he kissed them.

A few minutes later, footsteps suddenly came from the door, but Liu Lei was completely unaware.

She was dizzy from the kiss and completely immersed in the moment.

Wu Fan gently pushed her away, quickly helped straighten her bathrobe, signaled towards the door with his eyes, and then walked to the window to smoke.

Only then did Liu Lei realize what was happening. She quickly stabilized her emotions and jogged into the bathroom.

Mao Jiajia opened the door and entered. Seeing Wu Fan standing by the window, she said in surprise, "Brother Fan, you finally remembered to come see us? If Campus Belle Lin doesn't see you soon, she might become lovesick and bedridden, huh."

Lin Daixi lightly hit Mao Jiajia and smiled shyly, "You're starting to talk nonsense again."

She raised her eyes and glanced at Wu Fan, full of meaning.

Wu Fan exhaled a puff of smoke. "I can't help it, I've been busy making money lately!"

Liu Lei washed her face, put on light makeup, and came out of the bathroom.

She pretended to glance casually at Wu Fan. "Brother Fan just arrived, and you two showed up right away. It seems you must be psychic, huh?"

Mao Jiajia burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Mainly because Campus Belle Lin had a spiritual connection and kept insisting we rush back immediately."

Lin Daixi's pretty face flushed slightly. She gave Mao Jiajia a charming glare, pursed her lips, and said, "..."

Wu Fan imagined the unsaid words, then laughed heartily at Lin Daixi. He hadn't expected this Xiaoni's speaking level to be so high.

Mao Jiajia was an 'old driver' and understood instantly.

She raised her hand and chased Lin Daixi, pretending to hit her. The two ran around the sofa, playing and fooling around... Mao Jiajia finally pinned Lin Daixi onto the sofa and began randomly tickling her all over.

Lin Daixi begged for mercy amidst loud laughter. "Jiajia, I said the wrong thing, please stop quickly."

Mao Jiajia playfully hit her, stood up, and said, "Brother Fan, isn't Campus Belle Lin... haha."

Wu Fan couldn't help but smile, saying nothing.

Liu Lei bit her lip and said meaningfully, "You are all experts... I admit defeat."

Wu Fan processed the thought and burst out laughing.

University students nowadays really take the art of literary innuendo to the extreme.

Lin Daixi sat up straight and asked, "Brother Fan, where are you going later? Are you going home?"

Wu Fan stubbed out his cigarette and met her eyes.

Her eyes clearly held expectation and warmth.

He walked over to her side and sat down. "That's right, I'm going home in a bit. What about you? Is there anything your big brother can do for you?"

Lin Daixi's face flushed slightly. After pausing for a few seconds, she said, "My older sister is pregnant. I want to go see her and bring her some tasty things. If you're heading home, could you give me a ride?"

Wu Fan said readily, "This is such a small matter. You can call me anytime, and I can take you. Why wait until it's on the way? That's too formal."

Lin Daixi blinked, gave Wu Fan a beautiful smile, and said nothing more.

At this moment, she felt inexplicably nervous.

The last time she was with Wu Fan, it hurt...

Now that Wu Fan had finally arrived, she wanted to use the excuse of visiting Fang Hanyu to relive their sweet dreams together.

She even admired herself for finding such a grand and proper excuse.

Mao Jiajia loudly suggested, "Brother Fan, take us for a few rounds in King's Canyon! It's still early."

Wu Fan pulled out his phone and said cheerfully, "Let's go."

He glanced at Liu Lei. "Should we call Zhou Tong? We'd have five people then."

Liu Lei quickly waved her hand. "Seeing him just annoys me."

Mao Jiajia complained from the side, "Beautiful Liu Lei, although you two are the Golden Couple of our class, I think Zhou Tong is too petty and lacks masculine charm. I think you should just break up. Anyway, the male students chasing you at school are lined up all the way to the school gate, so why be so devoted?"

Lin Daixi said, "Jiajia, everyone else advises people to reconcile, not to break up. You, on the other hand, do the opposite."

Mao Jiajia peeled an orange and gave half to Liu Lei. "What we sisters are saying is the truth. I just think Zhou Tong is no good. First, he has no financial strength, and second, he has no tolerance for our beautiful Liu. Why settle for this?"

Liu Lei ate the orange segments, looking preoccupied and deep in thought.

At the time, she genuinely liked Zhou Tong, thinking he was handsome and hardworking, so she willingly gave her first time to him.

But as they spent more time together, conflicts constantly arose regarding their views on spending and how they handled problems.

The most terrifying thing was that whenever she brought up breaking up, Zhou Tong would threaten to commit suicide, acting hysterically.

He would even kneel and weep, causing her to soften her heart again.

The two of them dragged on day by day, suffering immensely inside.

Liu Lei sighed. "Sigh, I want to break up too, but you know what kind of character he is. He's truly impossible to shake off."
