Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!
Chapter 890 - 372: Sister Hui, give me one more chance!

Zhou Yuwen whispered a few words to Jiang Xinyi over there. Jiang Xinyi was certainly on the same page as Zhou Yuwen; she had long felt that Lv Hui was too inefficient at her job. If it weren't for Li Shuo's sake, Lv Hui would have been fired long ago, and she wouldn't have stayed until now.

Now it's good; Lv Hui managed to lose her only amulet.

Firing her was a natural thing, but since it was a formal contract, they still needed a reason.

Zhou Yuwen hugged Jiang Xinyi and said a few words, and then there was a knock on the door from outside.

Sure enough, Liu Jing was still uneasy about her daughter and Zhou Yuwen being in a room alone. Rather than being uneasy, she might have just wanted to watch the drama unfold.

Unfortunately, there was no drama to watch.

After Zhou Yuwen finished talking, he said it was getting late, and if there was nothing else, he'd leave first.

Jiang Xinyi didn't try to make him stay, but Liu Jing suggested that since it was so late, he might as well spend the night, since their house had plenty of rooms.

Zhou Yuwen just smiled and said, "No need, Auntie. I have a friend who's just been through a breakup, so I need to comfort him."

"Well, all right then."

So Zhou Yuwen left Jiang Xinyi's house and called Li Shuo, but he couldn't get through.

He then turned to call Gao Yang.

This time, he got through, but it was a bit noisy on the other end.

Gao Yang, hiding in the bathroom, spoke to Zhou Yuwen, "Hey, brother, what's up?"

Zhou Yuwen said, "Where are you guys? It's so noisy."

Gao Yang said, "I'm at the karaoke with Brother Shuo; he insisted on coming to sing."

After these words, Zhou Yuwen recognized the background noise on Gao Yang's phone—it seemed to be someone singing "Dead but Still Want to Love."

This kind of wailing sound was unmistakably Li Shuo.

Zhou Yuwen asked, "Where are you guys?"

Gao Yang answered with a name of a karaoke place, and Zhou Yuwen went straight over.

When Zhou Yuwen went in, he saw Li Shuo drunkenly singing on the stage.

"Drink! Drink up!"

Li Shuo said.

Besides Gao Yang, there was a younger brother who was a friend they had met at a Xu Huai Association gathering at home before, and there were three girls dressed in off-shoulder tops and high heels accompanying Li Shuo drinking.

Li Shuo said, "I've got plenty of money—everyone drink!"

The smell of smoke in the room was overwhelming; as soon as Zhou Yuwen entered, he wrinkled his nose and fanned the air, finally turning off the music so everyone would notice him.

"Bro!"

Seeing Zhou Yuwen, Li Shuo shouted "Bro!" and then rushed over to him.

"My bro!" Li Shuo had already started crying, hugging Zhou Yuwen and saying, "Why am I so miserable!"

"Bro, why am I so miserable!? I was so good to that woman, how could she betray me? How could she betray me!"

Zhou Yuwen eased Li Shuo back onto the sofa, saying, "There's no need to do this over a woman."

"Especially for an older woman; aren't there plenty of women beside you?"

Zhou Yuwen said, signaling for Li Shuo to look at the girls accompanying him, but Li Shuo waved it off, saying it wasn't the same.

"It's different, bro!"

Poor Li Shuo; maybe he wasn't that into Lv Hui, but she was indeed the first woman he cared about. In his view, just giving a woman money to spend was being good to her.

He thought he had Lv Hui wrapped around his finger.

He never expected Lv Hui to betray him.

Earlier, while drinking, Li Shuo had posted on social media: "We have no fate to meet again; from now on, I will guard my heart and not love again."

But his heart was still in pain.

Zhou Yuwen poured himself a drink, knowing that persuading Li Shuo wouldn't do any good now. It was better to let him drink the night away; heartbreak is something everyone must experience. As time passes, you just get used to it.

So, accompanying Li Shuo in singing and drinking, they carried on until late at night.

The hostesses could tell that these young guys were indeed wealthy. They told Li Shuo, "It's hard to find a passionate guy like you; why be upset over one woman?"

"Exactly! If worst comes to worst, I'll be your girlfriend!" This was the nightlife woman's most common line, said to anyone.

But Li Shuo just waved it off, saying, "You guys don't understand."

Zhou Yuwen was just there for company and naturally wouldn't say much. However, amidst the smoke and alcohol, Li Shuo was so distraught that the whole room was engulfed in puffs of smoke. Zhou Yuwen, rarely, lit a cigarette and started smoking.

After 2 a.m., Zhou Yuwen suggested taking these girls out for a late-night snack.

The girls hesitated for a moment and then all agreed.

While taking off their makeup later, they even discussed how much it would cost if Zhou Yuwen wanted something more.

All the girls agreed that if it were Zhou Yuwen, it would be worth it even if it didn't cost anything.

"That guy doesn't look very old but seems to be the leader of the group."

"Yeah, everyone appears to be very respectful to him."

The girls hoped for further developments with Zhou Yuwen after the late-night meal, but unfortunately, Zhou Yuwen showed no such intentions.

Before leaving the karaoke, Zhou Yuwen called Tao Tian and said he had been drinking and couldn't drive, asking if she could pick him up if it was convenient.

Actually, by that time, Tao Tian was already asleep and answered the call in a dreamy tone.

But Zhou Yuwen calling meant Tao Tian would certainly come over.

The girls who joined for late-night snacks were originally having a good time chatting with Zhou Yuwen at the barbecue stand, even slightly vying with each other for Zhou Yuwen's attention.

Ever since Tao Tian came over, these women instantly fell silent.

Tao Tian had such a good figure, and it was obvious she was a well-bred girl who'd been pampered. Her temperament was gentle, her speech soft, and yet she came over pouting, asking Zhou Yuwen why he called her over so late.

Zhou Yuwen said, there's something.

"Are you hungry? Want to eat something?"

Tao Tian nodded, sniffed slightly, and playfully complained, "Did you smoke?"

"Yeah, just a bit."

"Hate it~"

Zhou Yuwen chuckled.

They ate the midnight snack for another hour, and after that, Zhou Yuwen asked a few girls over for a private chat, asking if anyone was willing to accompany Liu Shuo.

Two of the girls refused. Honestly, while they wanted to earn money, these night club girls basically choose whoever they feel like, so it's best not to try flirting with these women. It's honestly pointless.

The last girl hesitated a bit before agreeing but was asking for quite a bit.

Zhou Yuwen said okay then.

After settling things, Tao Tian drove Zhou Yuwen to Zhonghai Garden.

Once back at Zhonghai Garden, Zhou Yuwen took a shower, then lay down on Tao Tian's lap. Tao Tian had already changed into pajamas and was helping Zhou Yuwen massage his temples, asking what was wrong today?

"Smoking and drinking again?"

Zhou Yuwen told the story about Liu Shuo and Lv Hui.

Such gossip is interesting to everyone, and Tao Tian was a bit shocked but said she wasn't surprised.

"That Lv Hui doesn't look like a peaceful woman at all. I've caught her looking at you with those kinds of eyes several times. Do you remember last time President Gao invited us to dinner?"

Tao Tian actually understood everything and just hadn't said anything.

Now that Lv Hui's scandal broke out, Tao Tian talked without restraint. She said, "Lv Hui probably wanted to seduce you, but ended up with your roommate because you didn't like her. But her taste is really bad."

Zhou Yuwen listened to Tao Tian talk; Tao Tian's thighs were quite fleshy, so they felt comfortable as a pillow. From Zhou Yuwen's perspective, he could see the scenery from a horizontal or a lateral view. Zhou Yuwen said to Tao Tian, "If you have a crush on a guy, just tell me in advance, don't make it like today."

Tao Tian got very angry upon hearing this and hit Zhou Yuwen directly, saying, "What are you talking about!"

Zhou Yuwen chuckled, saying that he just suddenly thought of it.

Tao Tian snorted, "I'm not like Lv Hui, okay?"

Worried Zhou Yuwen might overthink things, Tao Tian specifically explained that Lv Hui's affair was because she didn't truly love Liu Shuo.

She didn't get together because of love, so how could it possibly last?

"But I'm different. I'm with you because I love you; how could I leave you?" Tao Tian cupped her hands around Zhou Yuwen's face and spoke softly.

Tao Tian, with her two big pacifiers, really had a bit of a comforting angel feeling.

Zhou Yuwen stroked Tao Tian's cheek and said, "Tiantian, having you is really great."

"Hmph~"

Tao Tian felt a bit proud upon hearing this and bent down to kiss Zhou Yuwen.

They started kissing, and then adjusted their positions.

Today, Zhou Yuwen had drunk a bit, maybe he would last harder compared to usual.

Tao Tian was probably going to suffer tonight again.

It was already late at night, most of the guys' dorms were asleep, but the light was still on in Chang Hao's dorm.

"Sister Hui..."

Li Qiang leaned against the bed, tightly gripping his phone, mumbling like someone insane.

Just after Zhou Yuwen and Liu Shuo had left one after another—

Lv Hui wiped her tears, not willing to waste time here, she had to find Liu Shuo for forgiveness.

So she desperately called Liu Shuo, only to find the line was busy, then sent WeChat voice messages one by one, but found they couldn't go through.

Blocked on WeChat too?

Thus Lv Hui could only choose to go home and explain to Liu Shuo.

And when Li Qiang saw Lv Hui leaving, he stepped in front to block her, saying, "Sister Hui, where are you going?"

"Get lost!" At this moment, Lv Hui didn't even want to say another word to Li Qiang, directly telling him to scram with disdain.

And yet Li Qiang defiantly said, "Sister Hui! Liu Shuo already knows about our relationship, he won't be with you anymore! Sister Hui, be with me, I will definitely take good care of you, Sister Hui, believe me, I will take good care of you!"

Li Qiang sounded sincere, but at that moment, dressed in designer clothes, he was nothing but a clown in Lv Hui's eyes. The more genuine he sounded, the more nauseating Lv Hui found him.

"Take care of me?" Lv Hui snorted at these words like hearing the most absurd joke, coldly asked, "What qualification do you have to take care of me? Do you have money? Are you from the Capital city? What makes you think you can take care of me?"

By now, most theme class meeting members had left, but some still lingered, watching the spectacle.

Lv Hui was genuinely tired of the act with Li Qiang, genuinely hated him now, just wanted to humiliate him away quickly.

Yet, at this moment, their thought processes seemed on different wavelengths.

Completely unable to reach a common ground.

Lv Hui's tone was exceedingly vicious.

Yet Li Qiang heard something else entirely, seriously saying, "But, but I have a heart that loves you!"

"?"

Upon hearing this, not just Lv Hui, but even those around were stunned.

But Li Qiang didn't care at all, directly knelt before Lv Hui, pointed a finger at the sky, and seriously said, "Sister Hui, be my girlfriend; although I don't have money now, I'll work hard to earn it. I swear, I will make money, let you live a good life, Sister Hui, will you believe in me?"
