The hot spring clubhouse…

When Fu Chen and Song Fengwan arrived at the private room, Duan Linbai was talking to them about Nanjiang. He was just mentioning the scene of Song Fengwan bringing a large group of people to catch a couple in the act.

Hearing this, Yu Manxi was dumbfounded. This young lady speaks gently and has a well-behaved, lovable, and innocent personality. How could she do such a thing?

“Don’t doubt it. It’s true. I even posted a video in the group chat. Get Sinian to show it to you.” Duan Linbai munched on melon seeds. “I was at the beach at the time. The scene was very exciting.

“Those two people weren’t wearing any clothes and looked extremely flustered and panicked.

“But you can’t blame Little Sister-in-Law for being so ruthless. If she wasn’t smart, she would have been the one caught.”

…

At this moment, Fu Chen pushed the door open and entered. “What are you talking about?”

“Haha, it’s nothing. We’ve been waiting for you two for a long time…” Upon seeing Fu Chen, Duan Linbai smiled fawningly.

During the meal, it was all Duan Linbai livening up the atmosphere. Everyone also gave their gifts.

Duan Linbai gave her a big box and told her to open it when she went back to her room. Yu Manxi gave her a necklace from a niche brand, which was unique and small. And the most terrifying was Fu Sinian…

He got Song Fengwan to scan a QR code, and then the system prompted her to start installing software.

“This is…” Song Fengwan followed the instructions with a dumbfounded expression.

“When I helped you reinstall your OS previously, I saw a lot of information about the CET4 and CET61 on your laptop. This is software I specially customized for you. You can memorize English words anytime, anywhere.”

Fu Sinian even explained some routine operations to her.

Song Fengwan smiled awkwardly. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. If you think you don’t have enough vocabulary, I can help you add more.”

“There’s really no need.” Song Fengwan took a big gulp of her drink and glanced at Yu Manxi from the corner of her eye. How does she usually interact with this IT guy?

Yu Manxi kept eating with her head lowered.

She recalled that a few days ago, she had complained to Fu Sinian that she hadn’t been able to get out of bed recently. She didn’t know what programming system he had designed, but he had set up a special alarm for her. The daily wake-up ringtone…

How many days until the exam? Have you finished reading your books?

It was simply a nightmare.

After dinner, apart from Jing Hanchuan, who went home to feed his fish, everyone went to the hot springs.

The hot spring clubhouse was extremely private. There were large hot springs, and there were also individual, two-person, or even couple hot springs.

Song Fengwan was changing her clothes. Yu Manxi moved quickly and had a good figure.

“I’ll wait for you at the hot spring.” Perhaps seeing that Song Fengwan was a little uncomfortable changing in front of her, she walked out first.

It wasn’t that Song Fengwan felt uncomfortable. But when she compared her clothes, she suddenly felt that the clothes she brought seemed…

… childish.

She quickly changed her clothes, wrapped herself in a bathrobe, and ran to the hot spring. The two-person hot spring wasn’t big.

The hot spring was outside and had dark red lanterns hanging on the two sides. The red light cover was decorated with colorful mythical beasts, and the surroundings were paved with pebbles. The hot spring was gurgling with white mist.

Yu Manxi leaned against the edge of the hot spring and had already been soaking in the water for a while. Song Fengwan tested the water temperature before getting in.

The two of them chatted casually. Yu Manxi had been soaking in the water for a long time and couldn’t take it anymore. “I’ll get out and rest for a while. Do you want to eat something? I’ll get it for you, or should I get you some water?”

“No thanks.” It was rare for Song Fengwan to soak in a hot spring, so she didn’t want to get out yet.

When Yu Manxi went out, she bumped into Fu Sinian.

“Do you want to change and go for a walk? Or are you going back to your room to sleep now?” Fu Sinian asked.

“Wanwan is still inside. I have to call her out. She’s been soaking in the hot spring for too long. I’m afraid she won’t feel well…”

“Don’t worry about her. Someone will take care of her.” Fu Sinian didn’t explain and pulled her away.

Seeing that Yu Manxi hadn’t returned for a long time, Song Fengwan rushed out, put on her clothes, and went out.

Fu Chen was already waiting outside. “Go to your room?”

She nodded.

Second floor suite…

When they reached the door and swiped the card to enter, both of them were dumbfounded.

There were roses all over the floor, and the roof was full of balloons. The huge water bed was covered with a red bed cover, and the walls were decorated with Fu Chen and Song Fengwan’s names. There were scented red candles, red lights…

It looked like a bridal chamber.

Song Fengwan was a little nervous and uneasy at first. But when she saw the layout of the room, she instantly laughed out loud. “Big Brother Duan decorated it, right…”

Fu Chen’s face darkened. Didn’t this brat say that the decorations were very high-class and that it would definitely look good? This aesthetic sense…

“Let me tell my roommates that I’m not going back tonight.” Song Fengwan’s phone had always been in her bathrobe pocket. She took out her phone and sat on the bed to type a message.

The three of them also had a small group chat, and the other two naturally teased her.

Wrapped in her bathrobe, she got up and saw the gift box on the table not far away. It was Duan Linbai’s birthday present.

Song Fengwan walked over and pulled open the ribbon. The things inside made her dumbfounded. This person has something wrong with his head. What the heck did he give me?!

At this moment, Fu Chen took out a box from the side. “Happy birthday.”

“Huh?” Song Fengwan took the box and opened it. Inside was a pair of crystal-encrusted high heels.

It was custom-made, and there were small golden characters written on the side. They were their initials.

When every girl reached a certain age, they would yearn for a pair of high heels that belonged to them. It was as if after wearing high heels, they would no longer be girls but became more intellectual, elegant, and mature.

“Try them.” Fu Chen took a high heel and knelt on one knee. He held her foot and slowly put it on.

It fit perfectly, and it was surprisingly comfortable.

After putting on the high heels, Song Fengwan stood up and took two steps. She subconsciously straightened her back, and there was an indescribable joy in her heart.

“You’re wearing my shoes…” Fu Chen said softly.

“You’re really going to walk with me forever.

“If you promise me, you can’t be with anyone else.”

…

Song Fengwan blushed. It felt as if her feet weren’t the only thing bound, but…

… her entire life.

On the other side…

Duan Linbai was tired from soaking in the hot spring and fell asleep beside it. When he woke up, he found that there was no one around.

“F*ck, they all left.”

When he tried calling the two people from the Fu family again, no one answered. He was so angry that he called Jing Hanchuan to complain.

“… These two people are simply prioritizing their girlfriends over their friends. They abandoned me alone? What if I drowned in the hot spring?”

Jing Hanchuan was lying in bed and watching ‘The Truman Show’. The protagonist in the movie was fighting against the wind and waves at sea. He said quietly, “If you die, since we know each other…

“I’ll attend your funeral.”

“…” Duan Linbai was so angry that he couldn’t speak. There was no way he could continue living like this.

I’m going home tonight.

But after soaking in the hot spring for too long, when he got up, his brain was lacking oxygen, so he staggered and almost fell. He was really unlucky.

Why did I stay here?
