nA lot of things happened on Friday.

nFirst, I lead class 2-3 to our first victory in the basketball tournament. Although Niu ShiLi’s ankle was injured, it was a good way for me to avoid drinking Fu Yan Jie.

nThen I brought Xiao Qin to eat dinner at Traktirr Pushkin along with He Ling. Xiao Qin then revealed her identity and made He Ling submissive to her. Not only did she get back her mother’s necklace, she ever forced He Ling to become Niu ShiLi’s girlfriend. (The most preposterous part is no one asked for Niu ShiLi’s opinions)

nAfterwards, Auntie Ren chased Xiao Qin all the way to the restaurant and dragged her away. Then I received a call for help from Shu Zhe to rescue them.

nSo many events happened in one day, so it wasn’t surprised I flipped back and forth on the bed and couldn’t fall asleep.

nThe part I struggled with the most was the fact the class leader didn’t speak to me.

nEver since Li CunZhuang said ‘Ye Zi also likes you’, the class leader completely stopped talking to me.

nShe never said a word to me as I escorted her home.

nWas she angry about the fact I admitted I liked her?

nBut Li CunZhuang also said he liked you! You didn’t get mad and even became his friend.

nDon’t tell me she thinks I’m even uglier than Li CunZhuang? Did I make her mad by deluding myself to think I could go out with her even when I was so ugly?

nI don’t think that’s right. I’m confident that I looked better than Li CunZhuang.

nThen why didn’t the class leader talk to me?

nDo you think I confessed to you through Li CunZhuang?

nA spartan like me would never cowardly use someone else to confess. I would definitely scream out loud that I like you, but that was the effect produced.

nAre you mad at the fact I confessed or are you mad I didn’t tell you personally?

nOr are you not speaking to me because you haven’t made up your mind on how to respond?

nAre you afraid your words might be mistaken as a reply, so you decided to not speak to me before you made up your mind?

nJust thinking about that possibility made my heart beat rapidly.

nI think the class leader wouldn’t be able to find an answer if she didn’t have at least the entire weekend to think about it.

nWhich meant I had to wait until next Monday to hear a reply. I wonder what kind of reply I would receive.

n“I’m sorry, let’s stay as friends.”

nWould she friend zone me?

n“I’m sorry, but I always thought of you as a younger brother.”

nWould she treat me as a sibling?

n“I’m sorry, an ugly man can’t get a pretty girl.”

nWould she outright reject me?

nOr is there a one in a million chance she would agree to be my girlfriend?

nAh, now it was even harder to fall asleep. I tightly hugged my pillow as if I couldn’t wait for the class leader to be in my embrace.

nXiao Qin’s foolish smiling face appeared in my mind.

nWhy… did I feel so guilty. I was the one who decided on the womanizer plan and didn’t feel any pressure from it.

nOr is it because I always thought Xiao Qin didn’t really want to be my girlfriend and she was only trying different ways to harass me? And I was only putting on an act when I tried to flirt with other girls in front of Xiao Qin, but I never expected other girls to actually like me.

nIf the class leader agrees to go out with me, then wouldn’t I be a two-timer?

nI’m scum. If this goes on, then I would be playing with the feelings of two girls.

nI fell asleep as I was conflicted over both wanting the class leader to accept and wanting the class leader to reject me.

nIt was Saturday morning at ten when Su Qiao’s phone call woke me up. I actually slept in because I didn’t get a good night’s sleep.

nSu Qiao quickly apologized when she heard my groggy voice:

n“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you would still be asleep… should I wait another two hours before calling back…”

n“No, no need.” I became a bit more clear-headed. Due to Su Qiao’s subordinate tone of voice, I inadvertently thought of myself as her boss.

n“Um, Xiao Ye, I finished with my housing matters. Can I start living at your place today?”

nWe had already decided beforehand, but she made it seem like she was begging.

n“Okay, come on over. What time will you be here?”

nSu Qiao stammered: “I… I’m already downstairs, you just have to open the door.”

nI couldn’t refrain from getting angry: “If you’re already here, why did you say you were going to wait another two hours?”

n“But… it’s my fault if I’m disturbing your sleep…”

nI have both sympathy and anger for someone like her.

n“Wait for me downstairs, I’ll help you carry your luggage.”

n“No… it’s okay, I don’t have a lot of stuff, I can carry it up myself.”

n“I told you to wait, so wait.”

nSu Qiao replied affirmatively and then I hung up.

nI hopped off bed and quickly brushed my teeth and wore my clothes which took no longer than 5 minutes.

nI had to waste another 5 minutes to wait for my morning tent to disappear.

nI walked downstairs 10 minutes later and saw Su Qiao standing between two luggage bags wearing a sling top and jeans.

n“How come you have so less luggage.” I was shocked and found it hard to believe everything she had was stored in two luggage bags.

nSu Qiao lowered her head and said: “I only brought some clothes and daily necessities that I like. The other stuff wasn’t easy to bring along, so it was sold or given away. I didn’t want to make your house too messy.”

nI helped her carry her bags up to the fifth door in front of my unit.

nWe coincidentally ran into my upstairs neighbor, mahjong auntie, carrying a mahjong table downstairs. She saw me and Su Qiao and asked:

n“She is…?”

n“A distant relative.” I answered in a bad mood as Su Qiao respectfully bowed slightly to the mahjong auntie.

n“Oh, do you have a boyfriend yet?” The mahjong auntie smiled. I heard her son was a software developer who makes quite a bit of money, but it was impossible for him to find a partner.

nIn order to make the nosy auntie give up, I snorted: “She already has a fiancé.” Then we walked into my unit.

nSu Qiao was standing at the entrance and accidentally stepped off the mat. I could tell I made her uncomfortable when I said she had a fiancé.

nSu Qiao waited when I was looking for a pair of slippers for her like she left everything up to me. It seems her face was also slightly red.

nWhy is your face turning red! I was only trying to get rid of the mahjong auntie! Just because Ai ShuQiao promised you could marry into a rich household, it doesn’t mean your fiancé would be me!

n“Xiao Ye, I’m guessing you didn’t eat breakfast yet since you just got up.”

nAfter changing into slippers, Su Qiao didn’t organize her stuff, but instead wore the apron she washed last time and made me breakfast.

nThere was bread and ham in the sandwich, so with my approval, she made me a ham and fried egg sandwich for breakfast.

nShe said she already ate so she didn’t eat with me. Instead, she worked hard in the kitchen to clean the frying pans and other things I didn’t wash cleanly.

nI had a complicated feeling as I ate the hot and freshly made breakfast.

nWhile Su Qiao was busy in the, I moved her luggage to my room.

nSince I installed the listening devices, I began sleeping in the large bedroom. So my bedroom hasn’t changed from a few days ago. The bed was clean and the closet was cleared out. The H manga, Xiao Qin and class leader’s photos, and the weapons bro Gang gave me was all moved away.

nI planned on dropping off the luggage in the room and then leaving. Since from today onward this would be Su Qiao’s room, it wasn’t polite to stay too long in a girl’s room. Even if I wanted to help, I can’t just go through her stuff and help her organize it. Su Qiao would think I was a pervert if she came over and saw me rifling through her clothes and underwear.

nUnfortunately, one of the luggage bags had a problem with its zipper. A small piece of paper fell out as I was transporting it.

nI picked it up and wanted to check if there were any traces of communication between Ai ShuQiao and Su Qiao.

nI never thought it would be a receipt dated today. I wanted to put the receipt back, but shocking discovered under water bottle x 2 was a line that said Durex condoms 10-pack.

nHuh, why did she buy condoms? And she even said she was a virgin… Why would she buy condoms today when she were moving in today, what was she planning? Was it just in case or were you bewitched by Ai ShuQiao and thought it would be good if you could sacrifice yourself to make me and my mom make up.

nStop being naive. It’s impossible for me and Ai ShuQiao to get along. She turned the 4 year old Ai Mi into a killer, so who knows what she has in store for me. Not only will we never get along, I plan to make her fall from power and save Ai Mi from her grasps.

nThe most important thing… even if you were buying condoms, you should have bought it from our store and I could have given you a discount! We were worrying about how to get rid of our stock of condoms. We still have over twenty boxes of unsold Durex fire and ice condoms that will expire soon!
