You all chase after the innocent school beauty, then I'll choose the rebellious female school b

The provincial competition is being held in the provincial capital, and the finals are tomorrow. According to the rules, only Lu Yuan, the project leader, and the team leader are required to be present for the final presentation.

Other group members are not required to attend, but usually the whole team goes together.

That night, Lu Yuan told everyone to get some rest and to just be on time for the next meeting.

However, Lu Yuan didn't get a proper rest; instead, he went out on a date with Ye Yixian.

The main problem is that it's not good to leave Ye Yixian alone outside all the time.

The hotel is nice, and it even has a bathtub. Tonight, Ye Yixian and I will have a bath together.

After a playful time in the water, the two lay in the bathtub, embracing and chatting.

"Lu Yuan, to be honest, I was really worried something might happen to you this time." Ye Yixian leaned against Lu Yuan's chest, still feeling lingering fear.

She didn't care if she was bullied or got into trouble, since she was used to being wild. What she was afraid of was Lu Yuan getting into trouble.

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, stroking Ye Yixian's smooth back, and said, "Isn't this a perfect solution?"

Ye Yixian still couldn't be happy. "Thinking about it, it was too dangerous. If we had made a mistake, we could all have been in trouble, and... life-threatening trouble."

Ye Yixian's concerns were not unfounded.

In fact, Lu Yuan wasn't 100% confident when he set up this plan. In reality, he prepared a contingency plan for each step so that he could remedy any problems as much as possible.

The reason they weren't entirely confident was that Ye Yixian and the others were still young and hadn't experienced a real life-or-death confrontation. If their mental fortitude faltered, they might slip up.

Hu Chenghui is indeed a seasoned veteran, but he has been quiet for many years, which has made him a bit slow-witted. Most importantly, he seriously underestimated Lu Yuan's strength.

Perhaps in his eyes, a group of teenagers couldn't cause any big trouble.

Lu Yuan stroked Ye Yixian and gently comforted her, "It's okay. No matter what happens, we can find a way to solve it."

Ye Yixian thought for a moment, bit her lip, and said, "Lu Yuan, why don't we just focus on our studies, and after we finish our education, go back to Jiangcheng and start a small business?"

In Ye Yixian's view, running a small business might involve some backstabbing and competition with your neighbors across the street or in the same neighborhood, which is no big deal. But once the business grows, all sorts of ill-intentioned people will come, including ruthless ones like Hu Chenghui.

Lu Yuan smiled faintly and said, "We can't stop doing business just because we're having difficulties. Look..."

Lu Yuan showed Ye Yixian the magnificent hotel, "This hotel costs 280 yuan a night, so a week's stay would cost 2,000 yuan. If we weren't making money, would we dare stay in a hotel like this?"

The room cost 281 yuan per night in 2011, so the amenities must have been very luxurious. Lu Yuan had chosen this high-end room specifically because he was worried that Ye Yixian wouldn't be used to it after a week.

She lives here and doesn't have to worry about meals. When she's tired, she can just fall asleep. When she's bored, she can watch TV or play games. If anything gets dirty, she can just make a phone call and someone will fix it.

She never dared to dream of such a life before.

Ye Yixian felt terrible about spending two thousand yuan on a hotel, but Lu Yuan didn't care at all.

That's the confidence that comes with making money.

Lu Yuan felt that as a reborn person, even if he couldn't become the richest man like Ma Yun and Ma Huateng, he should at least become a multi-millionaire so that his family would never have to worry about food and clothing for three generations.

Therefore, it is impossible for Lu Yuan to stop.

Ye Yixian bit her lip, naturally understanding what Lu Yuan meant.

Since Lu Yuan is so determined to continue doing big business, she has no choice but to support him.

He simply reminded Lu Yuan to be careful and to prioritize his personal safety above all else.

Lu Yuan readily agreed, and before long, the two of them were snuggling together in the bathtub again.

It was around 3 a.m., and both Lu Yuan and Ye Yixian had gone to sleep, but Lu Yuan's phone kept ringing.

Ye Yixian, exhausted from being tossed around by Lu Yuan all night, was too tired to even open her eyes. She murmured, "Lu Yuan, who keeps calling you?"

"I don't know." Lu Yuan was also very sleepy. He didn't want to answer the phone, and he was even reluctant to reach for his phone. "Let it ring. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Ye Yixian had no objection.

About a minute later, the ringing stopped.

Lu Yuan smiled with satisfaction and went back to sleep, but the phone rang again not long after.

"Holy crap!"

Lu Yuan sat up angrily, picked up his phone and saw that it was an unnumbered number. He wondered if it was some kind of harassing call.

However, not long after, he felt that the number looked familiar.

Feeling less sleepy, Lu Yuan got up and went to the balcony to answer the phone. "Hey, Sister Na, why are you calling me in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

The call was from Lin Na; Lu Yuan remembered the number.

"Lu Yuan, are you happy now!"

Linna's voice carried a hint of anger and a touch of dejection.

Lu Yuan was no longer sleepy and asked with a smile, "I'm actually quite happy right now. I've made the money and taken care of my rivals. Sister Na, you don't sound very happy."

"Haha, I'm happy! How could I not be?"

Linna's smile looked fake, even a little pitiful.

In fact, Lu Yuan didn't know why she was so distraught. Wasn't it just because her father had cut off her allowance and confined her to the house?

Why is it acting like the sky has fallen?

"Lu Yuan, go to hell!" she suddenly cursed at Lu Yuan viciously.

Lu Yuan was baffled. "Sister Na, why are you so angry? Victory and defeat are common in war. If you lose, you lose. Just accept it. There's no need to call and ask me about it."

"I, the dignified eldest daughter of the Lin family, living a life of luxury, was dragged back home in front of my friends by my father's men. All my spending was cut off, and I'm confined to the house. Do you know how humiliating that is?"

At this point, she cried.

So it turns out they can't let go of their pride.

"No, Sister Na, it wasn't my fault. It's all because you partnered with someone like Hu Chenghui, which angered your dad. Let's learn from this and not do it again, okay?"

"Go to hell, you little brat who hasn't even grown his first hair yet, don't talk to me like an adult."

"..."

Lu Yuan was speechless.

Luckily, I have a good temper, otherwise I would have been scolded by Lin Na.

Lin Na called this number intending to give Lu Yuan a piece of her mind. She cursed a lot before hanging up, but Lu Yuan didn't hang up and let her rant. No matter what she said, Lu Yuan didn't reply.

Finally, Linna hung up the phone in a fit of anger and embarrassment.

Lu Yuan returned to bed, and Ye Yixian woke up as well, asking, "Whose call was that?"

"Lin Kai's sister's."

Lu Yuan answered truthfully and hugged Ye Yixian.

Ye Yixian asked in surprise, "Why did she call you?"

"It's more like a post-war summary."

"Post-war summary?"

Ye Yixian didn't quite understand, and Lu Yuan didn't intend to explain in detail. Mainly, there was really nothing memorable about this call. Lin Na swore throughout, cursing Lu Yuan and his family.

It's easy to imagine that Lin Na was extremely angry; otherwise, she wouldn't have abandoned all her dignity and started cursing whatever came to mind.

Lu Yuan was puzzled. Was Lin Na really that unwilling to let go of her pride?
