I started as a spirited young man, and the system made me a male god.

Shen Shaoting was taken aback at first, then burst into unrestrained laughter, winking at Chen Fei.

Looking at Lin Jingyi, who was so embarrassed she almost wanted to crawl under the table, and then at Shen Shaoting, who was laughing carefree across from him, Chen Fei felt that he wasn't so tired today.

He cleared his throat, picked up his drink, took a sip, concealing the smile on his lips, and said to Lin Jingyi:

"Okay. Let's go back... and talk about it later."

Chen Fei's words were like a feather, gently brushing against Lin Jingyi's heart. She was so shy that she could only let out a faint "hmm".

Shen Shaoting, watching from across the table, watched with great interest, and with a mischievous grin, mouthed to Chen Fei, "Look how scared you've made him!"

Chen Fei glanced at her helplessly, signaling her with his eyes to "stop making trouble," then picked up a piece of crispy roasted brisket and placed it on Lin Jingyi's plate: "Eat quickly, the meat will smell stronger when it gets cold. Shaoting, you should eat more too, don't just watch the show."

The barbecue feast continued in a subtle yet harmonious atmosphere.

Shen Shaoting chattered on about her anticipation for tomorrow's filming and her excitement about moving. Although Lin Jingyi was shy, she gradually relaxed and quietly chimed in, occasionally stealing a glance at Chen Fei.

After finishing their meal, the three of them walked out of the restaurant, and the cool night breeze carried away the aroma of the grilled meat from their clothes.

"Ah! I'm so full!" Shen Shaoting stretched lazily, completely unconcerned about her image. "Brother Fei, what time are we moving tomorrow? I don't have much stuff, just one suitcase!"

Lin Jingyi whispered, "I'm about the same."

Chen Fei looked at them and thought for a moment: "What time will you finish filming tomorrow? I'll pick you up after I finish my work at the company this afternoon."

"A little earlier than today, around six o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay, I'll pick you up at the creative park on time."

On the way back by taxi, Shen Shaoting was still full of energy, pulling Lin Jingyi to discuss whether to use the new poses she had learned for tomorrow's photoshoot.

Chen Fei sat in the passenger seat, looking at the dazzling night view outside the window, but his mind was on tomorrow's plans.

I have a lot to do tomorrow afternoon: handle company matters, pick up the car, and then pick them up from get off work.

That means I only have time to work out tomorrow morning.

Although I'm very tired today, I'll still go to the gym for the sake of that skill that can help me get back into shape, and also for... well, for some unspeakable "sustainable development" ability.

It was late at night when I got back to the apartment.

Chen Fei accompanied Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi back to get a change of clothes, and then returned to 801.

After the cleaning lady cleaned the house, its cleanliness score reached 95 points.

"Wow! Fei-ge, the cleaning service is so thorough!" Shen Shaoting exclaimed as soon as she entered the room. "How much did you pay for this service? I'll arrange it for 506 another day."

Chen Fei smiled and said, "It only costs a few dozen yuan the first time. By the way, I sometimes have to work late, so I'll sleep in the second bedroom. You two can sleep in the master bedroom."

After arranging their accommodations, Chen Fei urged them to go wash up first.

He then went into the living room, took out his phone and tripod, and prepared to record the Xiaohongshu video that he had been putting off for two days.

He set up the equipment, adjusted the lights, took a deep breath, and quickly got into the zone.

This video is actually quite simple. After showing the results of my training over the past two days, I mentioned that I'm going to Hangzhou the day after tomorrow to go on a date with a girl and asked netizens for advice.

This scriptwriting formula is very common, but it is exceptionally effective.

When netizens watch short videos, they are looking for a sense of interaction and emotional value.

They would feel a sense of accomplishment if they could influence Chen Fei's dating process.

Just like those videos that say things like "I don't believe that the traffic to frying an egg is lower than that to cosplay," netizens will instinctively want to like them and make a few sarcastic remarks, just to see the blogger break down.

By the time he finished his work, Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi had already taken turns washing up.

"Fei-ge, we're done washing! You go wash up!" Shen Shaoting said while drying her wet hair with a towel.

Chen Fei nodded, took his change of clothes, and went into the bathroom.

As the warm water washed over his body, cleansing away his fatigue, he couldn't help but recall Lin Jingyi's earth-shattering words at dinner: "I want more."

It would be a lie to say he was completely unmoved. After all, he was a normal man, and faced with such a direct yet shy invitation, especially from a cute and sexy girl like Lin Jingyi.

After I came out of the shower, there was only one warm yellow floor lamp on in the living room.

Shen Shaoting was already curled up on the bed in the master bedroom, the door ajar, probably playing on her phone.

Lin Jingyi sat quietly on the edge of the bed in her side-lying position. When she heard footsteps, she slowly raised her head, her eyes moist, filled with both nervousness and anticipation.

Chen Fei walked over and sat down beside her. He didn't do anything immediately, but simply asked softly, "Are you tired today?"

Lin Jingyi shook her head, her voice very soft: "Not tired..."

"Jingyi," Chen Fei looked at her, his tone serious, "I want you to know that whatever you do, it has to be something you truly want to do, not something you feel you should do, or something you're afraid of doing to me, understand?"

Lin Jingyi raised her head, bravely meeting Chen Fei's gaze, her eyes resolute:

"I...I'm willing. I feel very safe with you. Besides, it's a normal request for couples."

Looking into the pure trust and affection in her eyes, Chen Fei's last bit of concern vanished.

He reached out and gently pulled her into his arms.

Lin Jingyi's body stiffened slightly at first, then she completely relaxed, obediently leaning against him, her cheek pressed against his chest, and she could hear his steady and powerful heartbeat.

The night was quiet, with only the sound of our breathing mingling.

Everything fell into place naturally, carrying the awkwardness, tentativeness, and unspeakable excitement of a second intimate encounter.

Lin Jingyi was still awkward and nervous, but her efforts to please and the occasional sobs that escaped her lips acted as the strongest catalyst.

Chen Fei was extremely patient and gentle, guiding her to adapt to each other's rhythm.

After an unknown amount of time, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

Lin Jingyi curled up in Chen Fei's arms, her whole body limp, not even wanting to move her fingertips.

Chen Fei gently stroked her back, feeling the burning heat of her skin and the slight dampness of sweat.

"Are you alright?" he asked in a low voice.

"...Mmm." Lin Jingyi buried her face deeper into the crook of his neck, her voice muffled, carrying a post-coital hoarseness and satisfaction.

Just then, a system notification sounded in Chen Fei's mind:

[Congratulations on gaining 999 charm points in Lin Jingyi's eyes! The system rewards you with 9990 yuan!]

Chen Fei was overjoyed; he hadn't expected such an unexpected gain!

However, before he could be happy for long, a very faint sound, like someone accidentally bumping into something, came from outside the half-open door.

Chen Fei and Lin Jingyi both stiffened at the same time.

Chen Fei reacted quickly, gently patting Lin Jingyi's back to signal her not to move. He then quietly got up, put on his clothes, and suddenly opened the door!

Outside the door, Shen Shaoting was in a strange pose, standing on one leg with one foot dangling in the air, her face full of panic.

Clearly, she was trying to eavesdrop by pressing her ear against the door, but accidentally made a noise and tried to run away but didn't have time.

The three of them stared at each other, and the air seemed to freeze.

Shen Shaoting's eyes darted around, and she stammered as she tried to explain, "I...I...I...I came out to get some water! Yes! To get some water! Just passing by! Just passing by!"

She pointed to her empty hand, a clear indication of her blatant attempt to cover up her misdeeds.

Chen Fei looked at her comical yet adorable appearance, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and deliberately put on a stern face: "Shen Shaoting, eavesdropping is not a good habit."

Lin Jingyi was so embarrassed that she covered her head with the blanket, issuing a silent protest.

Seeing that she couldn't deny it any longer, Shen Shaoting decided to go all out, putting her hands on her hips and trying to appear calm, but her bright red ears betrayed her:

"Who...who's eavesdropping! I'm just here to keep an eye on things! To see if you're bullying Jingyi, Fei-ge! I'm...I'm protecting my sister's safety!"

Chen Fei was amused by her absurd reasoning, took a step forward, and picked her up in his arms.

Even though he had just finished working out today, Shen Shaoting was very light, so it was no problem for him to pick her up. This was one of the advantages of being a spirited young woman.

"Ah!" Shen Shaoting exclaimed, kicking her arms and legs wildly. "What are you doing! Put me down!"

"Supervising, huh?" Chen Fei carried her toward the master bedroom, his tone teasing. "Then let's supervise together, so you don't have to run around so much."

"Hey! Chen Fei, you pervert! Put me down! Jingyi, help me!" Shen Shaoting's shouts were particularly clear in the quiet night, but her struggles became weaker and weaker.

Hearing the commotion outside, Lin Jingyi, who was in bed, couldn't help but chuckle to herself.

The lights in apartment 801 didn't go out until very late that night.
