A new guide to winning over a girlfriend with an abstract identity is released every week.

Wei Yang gave a haughty laugh and opened Lin Zheng's QQ space, starting to browse through his posts, comments, and other information.

Lin Zheng first secretly saved the recording.

He thought about it and decided not to send it to Zhang Xuan for the time being, but to talk to him slowly when the two of them were together in private.

It's just a breakup; nothing a drink can't fix.

With nothing else to do, he opened Wei Yang's profile to see what was going on.

To his surprise, her first post made his eyelids twitch.

Holy crap! So she's been wanting to be saved since yesterday?

Her latest post:

My love was once scattered into fragments, nurturing the tides in countless reflections.

Until the moonlight pierced the fishing net, revealing the rusted chains.

They say I am a drowned fisherman, but you have turned the abyss into a rope.

The sounds of the tide, shattered into the twilight, are rekindled in your palm.

Isn't this poetic remark exactly what Wei Yang said to him last night after he completely won her over in the game?

Upon noticing that Lin Zheng was reading her status update, Wei Yang subtly raised her head to secretly observe Lin Zheng's expression.

But they found Lin Zheng silent, his emotions fluctuating, but they couldn't guess what he was thinking.

After expressing his feelings, Lin Zheng clicked on the comments below this post.

Some unfamiliar IDs joked, "Is the class beauty going to be in the non-mainstream again?"

Only Zhang Xuan joined in the literary pursuits.

The submerged tide in your pupils is climbing up my ribs like a cable.

When the rusted moon drowns, a star of redemption hatches in my palm.

These two sentences left Lin Zheng speechless.

You're supposed to be a comedian, so why are you starting to act like a pretentious, artsy type?

Chapter 51 The tug-of-war between Wei Yang and Lin Zheng

There were seven steamed buns in the basket. Wei Yang only ate two, and Lin Zheng ate the rest.

Huh? You have to be a gentleman in front of girls?

Can a gentleman fill his stomach?

What's more, he might end up paying for it.

"Are you full? Would you like some more?" Wei Yang asked with a smile.

"That's enough. If you eat any more, you won't be able to eat lunch later. But can you really manage with just two xiaolongbao?" Lin Zheng asked rhetorically.

"Skinny girls naturally eat very little, don't you know that?"

Wei Yang winked playfully, making Lin Zheng chuckle speechlessly.

Soon, after finishing the last sip of soy milk, the two sat in their seats, staring at each other, neither moving.

Are you both waiting for the other to pay?

Lin Zheng sighed inwardly.

I was eating with this girl, and I actually wanted her to pay or split the bill?

You're overthinking it.

He did a quick calculation: a basket of steamed buns cost eight yuan, two cups of soy milk cost four yuan, and breakfast cost a total of fourteen yuan. Moreover, he ate most of it himself, so it wasn't too bad.

Thinking about it, he stretched, stood up, went to the QR code scanning area, and paid.

"Boss, the money's been paid."

"Alright, take care, come again next time!"

......

After saying goodbye to the boss, the two began their return journey.

After walking a few steps, Wei Yang suddenly grabbed Lin Zheng's arm and pointed to a milk tea shop by the roadside: "Lin Zheng, do you want to drink milk tea?"

"Hmm? Would you like some milk tea?"

Before Lin Zheng could react, she pulled him to the entrance of the milk tea shop.

"Two or four glasses?"

Wei Yang turned to Lin Zheng, seeking his opinion.

Faced with this question, Lin Zheng sighed in exasperation.

Two cups means one cup for each of us, and four cups means we'll bring one cup for each of them as well.

Nonsense, the problem isn't scarcity but inequality; under normal circumstances, it should definitely be four cups.

“We’ll split the bill, four drinks,” he said directly, and without waiting for her agreement, he repeated to the clerk, “We want four drinks.”

"Okay, go ahead and choose your flavors," the staff member replied.

What do you want?

Lin Zheng looked at Wei Yang, who had been exposed for giving away gold coins, but he didn't express his displeasure.

"I'll have a cup of grass jelly."

She shrugged, seemingly aware of Lin Zheng's displeasure, but she didn't take it seriously.

"Okay, then bring four cups of grass jelly."

Lin Zheng was about to scan the code after he finished speaking when Wei Yang beat him to it.

"Boss, the 40 yuan has been transferred."

As she spoke, she glanced back at Lin Zheng with a haughty look, her eyes filled with laughter, and she seemed to let out a soft hum.

Lin Zheng found this look amusing.

Oh!? Is this what the fisherman's pulling technique is like?

Noticing the fish near the hook were unhappy, I quickly threw in some food.

"Tsk tsk tsk~, then I'll transfer twenty to you."

As he spoke, he sent Wei Yang a transfer of twenty yuan.

She won't accept it, she definitely won't accept it.

Lin Zheng thought to himself with certainty.

But to his surprise, his judgment was wrong again. Wei Yang actually accepted the money, so it seems that the two of them really did split the bill.

Even the fisherman and the like seem to be misjudging him.

After taking the milk tea, Wei Yang inserted the straw and took a small sip. Her small mouth seemed unable to hold the milk tea, and some spilled out and dripped onto the corner of her lips.

Soon, she stuck out her pink tongue and licked the area around her mouth, cleaning up the spilled milk stains.

This scene made Lin Zheng swallow hard.

What a tender tongue!

It smells nice, it's soft and smooth, and it's sweet too...

So tempting, this girl is so incredibly tempting!

I don't know if she did it unintentionally or on purpose.

As for why Lin Zheng knew its taste, does that even need an explanation?

"Hey~, I wasn't talking about splitting the bill with you just now."

After licking his lips, Wei Yang suddenly said something casually.

Lin Zheng was taken aback, then asked curiously, "Oh? If we each pay half, what else is it but a 50/50 split?"

As he spoke, his gaze unconsciously drifted to her small mouth, which had resumed sucking on her milk tea.

And, sweep away the mines below...

Old Zhang, there's a reason you're captivated by this girl; even your dad can't resist!

He sighed inwardly.

Wei Yang suddenly hopped to the right, tilted her head, and sweetly met Lin Zheng's gaze.

Those eyes, adorned with colored contact lenses and shimmering with iridescent light, fluttered beautifully.

"You treated me to breakfast, so I'll treat you to milk tea. What's wrong with that? It's a matter of reciprocity, isn't it?" she said earnestly with a touch of playfulness.

"Huh? Is that so?"

Lin Zheng's lips unconsciously curled into a smile, his face showing surprise, while a strange sense of joy welled up inside him.

So, the milk tea they were drinking earlier was something she wanted to treat him to?

"What about the other two cups?" he quickly came to his senses and asked.

"Wasn't this your treat for your brother and your school beauty friend? What does it have to do with me?"

Wei Yang smiled, straightened his body, and continued walking with a swaying head, quickly passing Lin Zheng and walking ahead.

Her voice continued, "Oh dear~, someone just told me not to mess with his brother, right? So I won't mess with him~, then why should I buy him milk tea?"

She turned around and continued, "Right? My good friend~! Hehehe~......"

After she finished speaking, she let out a silvery laugh, ignored Lin Zheng, and walked away quickly.

Her actions left Lin Zhengxiu completely bewildered.

If a normal guy were shown up like this, he'd be crazy not to kneel down at her feet.

Lin Zheng knew what kind of person she was, but even so, he couldn't help but gasp.

To be honest, even though he knew Wei Yang did it on purpose, he couldn't bring himself to feel any ill will towards her, and his feelings for her even subtly increased.

There's no way around it; no one can refuse this kind of exclusive favor.

The two quickly returned to the library.

Lin Zheng gave Zhang Xuan and Jiang Luoyu each a cup of milk tea and explained, "We went to have breakfast, and this is Wei Yang's treat, so he's treating you to milk tea."

"Oh! Yangyang actually treated me to milk tea!?"

Zhang Xuan's eyes widened. He quickly inserted the tube, took a satisfying sip, swallowed, and revealed a delighted expression.

"Wow! This is so delicious! The milk tea Yangyang bought is really good!" he boasted to Lin Zheng.

The sound was quite loud, and Wei Yang and the others could hear it.

"Thank you for the milk tea, Wei Yang."

Jiang Luoyu gracefully turned her head to the side, swirling the milk tea in her hand, and smiled thank you to Wei Yang, who had already sat down.

"It's nothing, just a cup of milk tea, no big deal."

Wei Yang smiled and did not deny that Lin Zheng was actually treating them.

Sitting at the same table was a person who could be seen from nowhere—Jiang Huaijin.

Seeing the four of them enjoying themselves, each with a cup of milk tea, while he had nothing, he felt annoyed and got up to leave.

Besides him, Wei Yang suddenly stood up as well.

She came to Lin Zheng's side, placed her hands on the table and chair, leaned down gently, and whispered in Lin Zheng's ear, "My good friend, so, is this drink yours?"

After she finished speaking, she raised her head slightly, pursed her lips, and smiled broadly.

The tingling sound, the hot breath, and those bright, sparkling eyes made Lin Zheng's breathing quicken slightly once again.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, a smile involuntarily appearing on his face, without offering any explanation.

Upon seeing this, Wei Yang's delicate eyebrows twitched slightly in a teasing manner, and she smiled as she stood up and returned to her seat.
