He had just promised Yu Luying that he wouldn't touch Shen Jie again unless they were in their daughter's room...

"I think you've had your fill of food at their place, haven't you?" Shen Jie's tone became increasingly unfriendly.

"It was alright, I ate quite a lot, her mom cooked a lot of dishes." Xiao Yao understood what Shen Jie meant by "eaten a lot" and quickly explained, "I just ate a meal and then took a taxi to your place, so I didn't spend much time alone with her."

"You're acting like you've become a high-ranking official, rushing through the first half and then the second half?" Shen Jie said.

"Honey, don't make things difficult for me. I had no choice but to do this today. I know I'm sorry," Xiao Yao said, wearing the underwear he had worn after getting wet (which was now dry), as he crawled back into bed. "I didn't want to either. Please let me explain."

"Don't explain, I don't want to hear it, and I don't want to argue with you," Shen Jie said.

Xiao Yao thought that when girls said this, they usually meant they wanted to start a fight.

"I don't want to know what you two did, nor do I want to know your reasons," Shen Jie continued. "Since you know you've wronged me, and now that you're back, shouldn't you treat me well?"

“Of course,” Xiao Yao said, “I will give my whole life to be good to you…”

"All you do is talk the talk," Shen Jie said.

Xiao Yao reluctantly offered his arm, letting her treat it like a toy.

He turned the girl over and gently rubbed his nose against hers, soothing her tenderly.

At least this way, his own feelings will be minimal, and the impact on Yu Luying will be minimal.

……

"All done?" Xiao Yao asked.

“Hum,” Shen Jie said.

"Can I borrow your phone?" Xiao Yao said.

"Who are you going to call this time?" Shen Jie asked.

"Can't you just not tell me? This is my phone," Xiao Yao said.

"My money," Shen Jie reminded him.

“You gave it to me, I didn’t steal it,” Xiao Yao said.

"Do I really have to tell Xiaojian—let her know I'm safe and say goodnight?" Shen Jie said.

"It wasn't to let her know we were safe or to say goodnight; it was to remind her not to go too far west or north," Xiao Yao said.

He told Shen Jie in detail about the risks he had considered on the way there.

"It's no use calling, you've already been blocked." Shen Jie tossed the phone over.

Xiao Yao dialed the number, and as expected, the blacklist had already been accessed. Yu Luying answered the phone quickly.

The boy didn't go to the hallway to make the call; instead, he sat on the edge of the bed and finished the call. He didn't say "I've arrived" or "Goodnight," but instead directly reminded Yu Luying of the potential risks associated with the distance.

"Okay, goodnight," Yu Luying said.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yao began to worry that Yu Luying would be angry because of his attitude on the phone.

Being a man is tough.

"Tomorrow, I absolutely have to remember to buy a new phone," Xiao Yao told himself.

"Honey," Shen Jie cleared her throat, "when you came in just now, did you see a lot of people using the bathroom?"

"Quite a lot, right?" Xiao Yao recalled.

"Then I'll take a nap first. When there are fewer people around in the middle of the night, wake me up to wash up," Shen Jie said.

"Okay," Xiao Yao said.

"You absolutely must call out to it."

"Okay," Xiao Yao said.

He had had a very tiring day, and with nothing else to do, he simply fell asleep in Shen Jie's arms.

He didn't know how long he had slept before he woke up in the darkness again.

Xiao Yao heard unpleasant sounds coming from the next room—or perhaps the room after that—through the wooden wall.

Damn it, is it really necessary to go this far? Is it like filming a neon action movie?

He could hear the sound even in his dreams, and he thought he was having another unhealthy dream. When he woke up, he realized he had misunderstood.

Just as he was listening intently, the girl in his arms suddenly twisted twice, and her snoring stopped abruptly.

"What, were you woken up too?" Xiao Yao asked in a low voice.

"Ugh, this is so annoying!" Shen Jie exclaimed. "It's so itchy!"

Itchy? What kind of suggestive words are those? Xiao Yao wondered.

I'm not feeling well today, so I'm writing very slowly. Even what I forced myself to write doesn't sound good to me. I'll take a break.

Chapter 276 Where will Shen Jie's future lead?

"Ugh, this is so annoying!" Shen Jie exclaimed. "It's so itchy!"

Itchy? What kind of suggestive words are those? Xiao Yao wondered.

"What's itchy?" Xiao Yao asked. "Where does it itch?"

"It itches everywhere," Shen Jie said. "It's probably because I haven't showered—aren't you itchy?"

Xiao Yao pondered for a moment, then answered Shen Jie seriously, "It doesn't itch."

Shen Jie paused for a moment, then her eyes suddenly sharpened: "Did you really steal some food?"

What kind of divergent thinking is this? Where is the logical connection?

"Oh no, the air conditioning is on. You're probably itchy from mosquito bites. Let me show you." Xiao Yao reached out and gently stroked Shen Jie's nape, trying to find any unusual bumps.

As if to prove Xiao Yao's words, he immediately heard the buzzing sound of mosquitoes near his ear, coming closer and closer. He instinctively pulled his hand back and slapped it with his hand.

I don't even know if it hit the target.

Three seconds later, the female mosquito responded to Xiao Yao's question with a mocking buzz.

Hey, my temper is raging...

"Even if there are mosquitoes, won't they bite you?" Shen Jie objected.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I have type AB blood and don't like the taste."

"You even know about this? Which blood type tastes best?"

"Type O, huh?"

"...I'm blood type O! What bad luck!"

"You chose this place, my dear wife," Xiao Yao thought to himself, but knew he couldn't say it aloud.

"Then, I'll go downstairs and buy you an electric mosquito repellent. Tomorrow we'll go buy a mosquito net; those are the most effective." Xiao Yao sat up.

Why are you up too?

"I'm going to take a shower," Shen Jie said. "There shouldn't be anyone here at this hour—you should take a shower too."

“Okay, let’s go,” Xiao Yao said.

"What are you thinking? We'll shower separately. There are so many people living here, I don't want to be a laughing stock." Shen Jie told Xiao Yao, "And you should go buy the mosquito coils you mentioned first."

“Oh,” Xiao Yao said.

The boy changed into a clean set of clothes, went downstairs, and walked to a night market stall, where he unexpectedly saw the girl in fishnet stockings he had met before.

"Hey." The girl greeted Xiao Yao again.

“Hey,” Xiao Yao said.

"What a coincidence," the girl said.

"Ah...yes." Xiao Yao asked, "Where are the supermarkets and convenience stores around here?"

"Go straight ahead and turn right at the convenience store." The girl in fishnet stockings carefully pointed out the way to him. Xiao Yao thanked her and was about to leave when she was approached by someone else.

“Little brother, you live in 202, right? I live in 201, right across from you,” said the girl in fishnet stockings.

“Oh, yes, what a coincidence, then we’re neighbors,” Xiao Yao said eagerly.

The girl smiled but said nothing.

"My surname is Xiao, Xiao Yao." Xiao Yao suddenly felt that he should introduce himself politely.

"Li Xiaoyao?" The girl's eyes sparkled with curiosity.

“If Li isn’t an option, then Xiao Yao will do,” Xiao Yao said.

"Just call me Meiyu. Mention my name when you buy cigarettes, otherwise he might give you counterfeit ones because he doesn't recognize you," the girl said.
