Suddenly, a sharp pain on his tongue made Li Yuan hiss softly and release her lips.

Bai Weixi finally caught her breath and glared fiercely at Li Yuan, her cheeks flushed with shy embarrassment as she reminded him, "Not now, Yuchen is here!"

Hearing Bai Weixi’s shy words, Li Yuan’s mind went blank, a look of utter confusion on his face. He quickly looked up toward the living room and saw Wang Yuchen standing by the balcony with her arms crossed. She was watching him with a strange, leisurely amusement, a mischievous smile playing on her lips...

Damn it, why is she still here?

Li Yuan felt immensely awkward and quickly released Bai Weixi from his embrace. If she hadn’t bitten his tongue, he might have already pulled her shirt off.

Seeing that Li Yuan had noticed her, Wang Yuchen couldn’t resist making a teasing remark. "Yo, Li Yuan, Bai, could you two not be so eager? The moment you see each other, you just can’t hold back, even in broad daylight? You’re both at the same school, don’t you see each other often enough?"

As she spoke, Wang Yuchen’s sharp eyes couldn’t help but glance down at the prominent bulge in Li Yuan’s pants. Her cheeks tinged with red and her heart pounded erratically. She quickly averted her gaze, but as if guided by an unseen force, she snuck another peek from the corner of her eye.

No wonder Li Yuan can have four girlfriends and Bai won’t leave him, she mused. Besides the financial factor, his physical prowess is also top-notch...

Li Yuan was about to say something when he noticed Wang Yuchen’s meaningful stare. Glancing downward, he immediately understood the reason for her look. His expression turned exceedingly embarrassed, and he quickly sidestepped to hide behind Bai Weixi. "Um, Bai, why didn’t you tell me Yuchen was home?"

Bai Weixi shot Li Yuan a shy glare and huffed softly. "You have to give a girl a chance to speak, you know!"

"That’s because you pounced on me the second you saw me! I thought we were alone."

"Well, that’s because I missed you!"

Listening to Li Yuan and Bai Weixi flirt, Wang Yuchen felt as if acid had been poured into her heart, corroding it with a sharp pain. "Alright, you two, stop with the public display of affection in front of me. Do you want me to make myself scarce and give you two some time to get intimate?"

Li Yuan’s eyes lit up with anticipation. Wang Yuchen’s suggestion wasn’t half bad. If he and Bai Weixi were to explore the science of human biology, researching the origins of mammalian life, having someone on the side to... ’play accompaniment’... wouldn’t be bad either. He could enjoy double the pleasure.

Bai Weixi, understanding the eager look in his eyes, pinched him hard on his lower abdomen. She glared at him and snorted sharply, "You creep! Your mind is so dirty!"

Li Yuan cried out in mock innocence, "Bai, I didn’t say a thing!"

"Hmph, I know that’s what you were thinking."

"How can you prove I was thinking that?"

"I don’t care! I know you were thinking something bad just now."

"You’re accusing me without any proof!"

"You had such a wicked smile on your face, you were definitely thinking it!"

Wang Yuchen watched with a half-smile as Li Yuan and Bai Weixi bickered—or perhaps "flirted" was the more appropriate term.

"Excuse me, lovebirds, could you have a little consideration? There’s a single dog over here, and I’m about to burst from all this dog food."

From behind, Li Yuan placed his hands on Bai Weixi’s shoulders, pressing himself tightly against her back. He glanced at Wang Yuchen and teased cheerfully, "Little Chili, since when did you become a single dog? Does Xu Dazhi know about this?"

Wang Yuchen understood the implication in his words. She gave Li Yuan a meaningful look, puffed out her ample Nanas, and shot back with a giggle, "Why, Handsome Li? Planning to run to Xu Zhi and tattle on me?"

Li Yuan looked at Wang Yuchen, shook his head with a smile, and spread his hands nonchalantly. "I’ve got my own problems to deal with, I can’t even save myself. I don’t have the energy to meddle in your affairs. Still, Little Chili, Dazhi is head over heels for you. Don’t break his heart."

Hearing Li Yuan’s words, Wang Yuchen suddenly felt an inexplicable wave of irritation, and her tone turned sharp. "Li the Big Scumbag, what about you? Bai is just as head over heels for you, yet haven’t you broken her heart?"

What was meant as a simple joke was met with Wang Yuchen’s sharp retort, and Li Yuan suddenly fell silent. There was truly nothing he could say.

The previously cheerful atmosphere in the room instantly grew tense and dangerous.

Seeing Li Yuan’s silence, the dam of resentment in Wang Yuchen’s heart burst. She was partly fighting for her best friend and partly venting her own feelings of bitter frustration. She continued to glare at Li Yuan, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Li Yuan, you really are something else. It’s only been a little over a month of college, and you’ve already found three new girlfriends. What a peerless gentleman you are.

"Putting on an act for three years in high school must have been tough, huh? The second you got to college, you just had to let your true self fly, didn’t you?

"How could you do this to Bai? She was with you all the way from high school to college, and this is how you treat her? Where’s your conscience? Did those vixens eat it?"

Hearing Wang Yuchen’s words grow increasingly harsh, Bai Weixi’s expression changed dramatically. She frantically shot looks at Wang Yuchen, signaling her to stop.

But Wang Yuchen acted as if she didn’t see a thing, continuing her tirade with even greater ferocity. "Li Yuan, just stop pretending to be a good guy. The whole world knows what a scumbag you are, so just admit it already.

"Bai is just too naive! It’s a shame she still trusts you so much, still believes in your love for her. I think you were just driven by lust. You never really loved her at all."
