The anchor I was supposed to meet turned out to be my student.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

“Hua Tusheng…” she suddenly called out my name.

I met her gaze, waiting for what she would say next.

But then tears welled up in her eyes. Just as I was frantically trying to ask her why she was crying, she suddenly pulled me into her arms and rested her head on my shoulder.

"Why are you so good to me sometimes and so bad to me sometimes, why..." Bi Antong's voice was filled with endless resentment.

As I was pondering the reason, I suddenly heard her say, "Let's stop having a cold war, okay?"

Given Bi Antong's personality, when she said those words, she was already indirectly apologizing for what happened that morning, which was something I hadn't expected.

"Okay, sure," I said softly, stroking her hair.

Bi Antong pulled away from me, looking at me with pleading eyes, and said, "Can you promise me you won't bring other women home anymore? I really can't take it..."

In that instant, I finally understood why she was crying, and I realized that Jiang Yanyi's claim of jealousy was not unfounded...

(Update complete, sorry)

Chapter 46, Section 101: After the Storm Comes the Rainbow (Part 2)

So under what circumstances would a girl get jealous of you?

There's no doubt it's because I care about you.

But to what extent does this concern extend?

This question is directed at both her and me. To what extent do I care about her? I dare not categorize it as liking. If caring is liking, then I would like too many girls, and wouldn't I be a fickle person? Of course, to put it nicely, I could call it being promiscuous.

So after wiping away her tears, I stared at Bi Antong's face, trying to discern her true thoughts. She couldn't stand my gaze, so she raised her hands and gently pushed against my chest, her face flushed as she scolded, "Why are you looking at me like that! I... I just can't stand them sleeping in my bed again..."

"Then I'll just stop letting them stay overnight at home, right?"

"That's not OK!"

"Why?" I asked deliberately, looking at her expression.

"Because, because that's our home, no other woman can come in..."

She didn't mention anyone else, but specifically emphasized other women. I started to have an answer in my mind, but I wanted to be even more certain, so I deliberately asked, "Can't I even invite them over as guests...?"

Bi Antong quickly shook her head and said firmly, "Your invitation doesn't count. It has to be approved by me, the hostess!"

Has she already subconsciously identified herself as the mistress of the house? I can now confirm this girl's feelings for me. Even if it's not love, she definitely has a strong liking for me.

Upon hearing this, Bi Antong realized she had let something slip and blushed alluringly, like a ripe red apple.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm also a resident of this apartment building, so isn't it only right that I call her the lady of the house?"

"With your excellent grades, how could you interpret the word 'mistress' literally? That's so dishonest..." I looked at her, amused.

Bi Antong knew perfectly well that I had noticed her feelings. Her face flushed with embarrassment, and she pinched my waist, scolding, "You, can't you stop bullying me! If you knew it in your heart, why did you say it on purpose? You're just taking advantage of me, I... Humph!!"

She angrily hugged the trench coat I had draped over her shoulders and stormed off to the taxi stand, but I got the feeling that she was trying to hide her embarrassment.

As I watched Bi Antong's retreating figure, I couldn't help but smile wryly. Her lack of frankness had caused me to misunderstand her a lot, leading to our first argument this morning. But this lack of frankness gave her a cute quality that set her apart from other girls. Isn't this awkward personality of saying one thing but doing another also quite adorable?

Unless it's a heavy rainstorm like before, you can easily hail a taxi in Shanghai anytime, 24 hours a day, so Bi Antong and I quickly got on a taxi to go home.

On the bus, Bi Antong kept looking out the window at the streets washed by the rain, ignoring me. I also looked out the window at the brightly lit streets. In a sense, late at night in Shanghai is the most lively time of the day, the beginning of nightlife for people who have worked all day.

"How did you know I was in the hospital?" Bi Antong suddenly asked me.

"Your phone was on silent, so I couldn't reach you. I was worried, so I had to go to the hospital to see a doctor..."

Bi Antong was silent for a moment, then said, "I've called you more than twenty times, but your phone has been switched off the whole time..."

I said apologetically, "My phone is almost out of battery, so I have to turn it off first to save some power to pay."

“Do you know how uneasy I was being home alone? I didn’t know what happened to you, and I was too scared to sleep alone at home, so I had to go to my mother’s hospital room…” Bi Antong said, looking at her knees.

It turns out that she gets just as anxious when she can't reach me as I get anxious when I can't reach her. I felt even more guilty and said, "I'm sorry, I just got home late tonight because of the heavy rain. I promise I won't leave you alone at home late at night again."

Bi Antong turned to look at me, her face aggrieved, and said, "You clearly promised me that last time too..."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, I felt a pang of sympathy and reached out to pull her close. Bi Antong was stunned for a moment, then shyly pushed against my hand on her shoulder, and said in a flustered voice, "What are you doing?!"

The driver, who was driving, turned around after hearing Bi Antong's voice. While I was feeling awkward, Bi Antong spoke first, explaining, "No, it's nothing..."

The driver only relaxed and continued driving after the woman said she was alright.

In the end, I pulled Bi Antong close and comforted her, saying, "I broke my promise this time, it was my fault, but it won't happen again."

Her body was so soft and fragrant that I couldn't bear to let her go, but her initial struggles seemed symbolic, and now she obediently leaned on my shoulder.

"Hmph, I won't believe you completely. You'll definitely come up with a new excuse later. Today it's Lu Xiaojun, tomorrow it'll be Luo Yao..."

She clearly misunderstood because of Lu Xiaojun's post of a group photo on her WeChat Moments, thinking that Lu Xiaojun and I were out so late. But I wisely avoided talking about that topic, so I changed the subject and said, "I just woke you up, so you must still be sleepy. Why don't you get some sleep first? I'll let you know when we get home."

Bi Antong raised her eyes and gave me a resentful look. She didn't say anything, then obediently leaned on my shoulder and fell asleep, wearing my coat.

Gradually, she seemed to fall asleep, and I was able to observe her delicate and beautiful face without any restraint. Unlike when I first met her, she had been wearing makeup ever since we went to the pet store to buy pineapples together and she started wearing makeup, but it was always just a light touch.

A few strands of hair fell across her forehead. I thought they were getting in the way of my admiring her face, so I carefully tucked them behind her ears. But then my fingers involuntarily stopped in front of her two red lips. I suddenly had a thought that I wanted to taste them, but I immediately suppressed the idea because I thought it was too lewd.

But I was still unwilling to give up such a rare opportunity and do nothing, so I decided to just touch it lightly with my finger.

As I watched her closed eyes, I slowly brought my index finger to her lips. During this process, I was also very nervous, afraid that Bi Antong would suddenly open her eyes and catch me red-handed.

I eventually touched her, but her eyelashes trembled slightly. I was so startled that I quickly withdrew my finger, but when I saw that she had opened her eyes again and was still fast asleep, I breathed a sigh of relief.

The driver finally stopped the car in front of the apartment building. I gently shook the sleeping Bi Antong and told her we were home. She slowly opened her eyes and said, "We're here so soon?"

After paying the driver, Bi Antong and I got out of the car. She seemed a little dazed and unsteady on her feet, but luckily I caught her in time.

"You didn't take advantage of me just now, did you?" Bi Antong suddenly interrogated me after regaining his balance.

My heart skipped a beat, but I quickly calmed myself and said, "We are not that kind of people. Only petty villains would do such a thing!"

Bi Antong squinted at me for a while before giving up the interrogation and walking upstairs. I breathed a sigh of relief and followed her, but she suddenly turned back to me and said, "You petty scoundrel!"

(I'll finish my exams at the end of June, and I'll be back with tons of updates!!)

Chapter 47, Section 102: I'll let you sleep...

My heart skipped a beat. Was she faking being asleep?

"What are you saying? This is so strange..." I said, trying not to give myself away.

Bi Antong glared at me and said, "Hmph, not only a petty scoundrel, but also a coward!"

That girl is definitely faking being asleep!

Damn it, why didn't I try to make a few more profits back then? I was going to get criticized anyway.

I followed her back to the apartment feeling guilty. As soon as the door opened, Pineapple rubbed against its owner's feet—of course, Bi Antong's feet. Why hadn't it rubbed against me like that before when I came home? These days, even female cats like to engage in lesbian relationships…

Bi Antong had already taken a shower before going out, so there was no need for her to shower again. I went to the bedroom to get a change of clothes and noticed two pillows on the bedside table, one for Bi Antong and the other for me. I reached for the sofa, but Bi Antong called me back.

"You can sleep here."

My face was etched with a huge question mark.

Seeing my confusion, Bi Antong became even angrier and said, "I just want you to sleep in the bed. Can't you understand human language?"

"But are you going to sleep on the sofa?"

I only complained to her this morning during our argument that my back hurt from sleeping on the sofa, but there was no need for her to actually sleep on the sofa.

"No, that's not true..."

Looking at Bi Antong's lowered head and slightly flushed face, a word came to mind—sleeping together!

I stared at Bi Antong in disbelief, but she avoided my gaze, which showed how shy she was about making this decision.

"Let's forget about it. This doesn't feel right. Living together is one thing, but sharing a bed is a bit much..."

"I... I never said I wanted to share a bed with you, you were the one who said it... Considering that sleeping on the sofa is bad for your back, I reluctantly agreed..."

No, I clearly refused just now...

I still felt it wasn't quite right, so I politely declined, saying, "Since you're also in a difficult position, then let's forget about it. I can just buy a folding bed tomorrow and unfold it up when I want to sleep."

"No way!" Bi Antong suddenly raised her head and reacted strongly.

I was taken aback by her imposing manner. She then said domineeringly, "I'll let you sleep here, why waste money buying a folding bed!"

"Okay, okay, I'll sleep, I'll sleep..."

Since she didn't mind, I didn't care either. Anyway, sleeping in a bed is more comfortable than sleeping on a sofa. I always missed the feeling of sleeping in my beloved bed, so I was about to lie down on the bed to find that feeling again, but Bi Antong called me back.

"Go wash up before you go to bed, you're filthy..."

That sounds familiar... It's like Mo Jia used to remind me of that before I started working with her...

Bi Antong realized that her words were ambiguous, and blushed as she hurriedly explained, "That's not what you think! I just wanted you to wash up before going to bed with me!"

That's not much better either...

Bi Antong's explanations became increasingly ambiguous. She grabbed my fur and pushed me out of the bedroom, shouting, "It's almost three o'clock! Go wash up and go to bed!"

After washing up, I went back to the bedroom. As soon as I entered, I was stunned. Those legs were so long and white!

Bi Antong was still awake, leaning against the headboard looking at her phone. Instead of changing into a nightgown, she wore a mid-length T-shirt, revealing her long legs, with her left leg crossed over her right leg and lying straight across the bed.

After I entered the bedroom, Bi Antong looked over and caught me in a moment of surprise. She quickly pulled up the blanket next to her to cover her long legs, but the blanket wasn't fully spread out, still revealing two adorable feet. It seemed that her second toe was almost level with her big toe. Is this what people call a Greek foot? Indeed, women with Greek feet are usually quite beautiful...

Seeing that I was still staring, Bi Antong said shyly, "Why are you still staring at the duck!"

You might not know this, but your fair feet are also very alluring...

I awkwardly looked away and went to the bedside, but I suddenly felt uneasy because Bi Antong was lying on the other side of the bed, and it would be incredibly embarrassing to lie down there too...

I decided to stand for a bit to catch my breath and casually asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet? You don't need to wait for me..."

"I wasn't waiting for you, I was just checking the messages..."

Bi Antong placed her phone on the table next to her, pulled the covers up, closed her eyes, and went to sleep. But after a while, seeing that the light was still on, she said, "Why aren't you turning off the light and going to sleep?"
