Chapter 1150: Chapter 499: Shen Yu’s Decision

After Zhou Yuwen went in to take a shower, Zheng Yanyan noticed it was getting late, and said she also needed to shower. Smiling, she told Shen Yu not to bother, suggesting they could play poker after their showers, just like they did last time in Suzhou.

Shen Yu asked, “Wouldn’t it be inconvenient?”

“What’s inconvenient about it? We have two bathrooms, and the soundproofing is good,” Zheng Yanyan said boastfully, then added as if recalling something, “Oh right, you’re concerned because you’re a girl, and Zhou Yuwen might be inconvenient? Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on Zhou Yuwen to make sure your innocence isn’t compromised.”

The latter part of Zheng Yanyan’s sentence was intended as a joke, but Shen Yu, being a pure-hearted young woman, blushed nonetheless, claiming that wasn’t what she meant.

“Oh well, regardless of what you meant, I can assure you that Zhou Yuwen doesn’t have any intentions toward you. Let’s go, shower time!” Zheng Yanyan said, pulling Shen Yu up.

Strangely, Zheng Yanyan’s words made Shen Yu feel hurt.

What does it mean that Zhou Yuwen has no feelings for me?

Am I really that devoid of charm?

This wasn’t the first time Shen Yu was staying over at Zhou Yuwen’s place. The room she was staying in hadn’t been occupied by anyone else before, so the bedding was readily available. After some tidying up with Zheng Yanyan’s help, she was ready to shower.

When being ushered into the bathroom, Zheng Yanyan announced outside that she was standing guard and wouldn’t let anyone disturb her.

“Your words make it feel like I don’t trust Zhou Yuwen…” Shen Yu muttered.

However, it had gone quiet outside; it was evident that Zheng Yanyan had run off.

In the public bathroom, Shen Yu felt a bit helpless, and she resigned herself to taking her shower in peace. Shen Yu’s skin was paler than Zheng Yanyan’s, but she was shorter in height, fitting the petite and dependent type. However, she had all the features one could desire, her waist was petite, and the mist in the bathroom highlighted her graceful silhouette.

While Shen Yu was showering, Zheng Yanyan went straight to the bedroom bathroom, swiftly took off her clothes, and entered the bathroom, surprising Zhou Yuwen, especially given her boldness in entering so openly.

Zhou Yuwen instinctively shielded himself, then glanced at Zheng Yanyan’s whole body for a moment, unable to resist saying, “You’re a girl, at least cover up a bit, okay?”

Zheng Yanyan giggled nonchalantly, “What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Is there anywhere on me you haven’t seen yet, darling? Let’s shower together!”

“Isn’t there a bathroom outside?”

“Shen Yu is showering outside.”

“Then why not shower with her?”

“I don’t want to; I want to shower with you, heehee, I’ll scrub your back, darling!”

Bubbles formed in Zheng Yanyan’s hands as she intended to pamper Zhou Yuwen. Zhou Yuwen cautioned her against touching him randomly, and Zheng Yanyan teased, “Oh, darling, your mind seems filled with naughty thoughts, it’s showing!”

Amused by her remarks, Zhou Yuwen laughed, “You’re here so bare, touching and rubbing me; of course, I’d have a perfectly normal reaction.”

“I thought you lost interest in me.”

“How could that be?”

Despite being long-term partners, the two still found joy in such playful banter.

While Zheng Yanyan and Zhou Yuwen showered together, Lu Lin waited for Shen Yu to finish, before taking a quick shower herself and changing into clean clothes.

Both Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin were at home, so they dressed casually, with just coats over bare legs. Lu Lin wore a black shirt, with nothing underneath.

Zheng Yanyan wore a camisole top with black shorts.

Only Shen Yu dressed most modestly, in cotton pajamas, covering herself completely.

She hadn’t brought clothes, so she wore ones borrowed from Zheng Yanyan, which were slightly loose-fitting, with a creased neckline revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

It was not yet midnight, and given Shen Yu’s rare visit, it was natural to find some entertainment, so after considering options, they decided to play cards as before.

The card game was secondary; the main thing was the chatting.

While playing cards, Zheng Yanyan asked Zhou Yuwen if he had sent Li Shiqi back to the dorm.

Zhou Yuwen responded, “What else could I have done?”

“If I hadn’t sent her back, would I be here now?”

From the remark, Zheng Yanyan covered her mouth laughing, sitting on the sofa with one leg crossed and the other dangling, holding a large pillow.

Observing her joyous demeanor, Zhou Yuwen asked what was making her so happy.

Zhou Yuwen said, “I felt something was off earlier. Since when were you so nice? It’s like you’re determined to push Li Shiqi into my arms.”

“What do you mean ‘so nice’? I’ve always been nice! Li Shiqi is so outstanding, a top student at Jinling University. How could you not like her? I’m just facilitating a beautiful match, darling, shouldn’t you praise me?” Zheng Yanyan wiggled her long legs, blinking for compliments.

As Zhou Yuwen sorted the cards, he scoffed, saying, “Showing kindness without cause, there’s always a catch.”

“Surely plotting something.”

“I’m telling you, Li Shiqi is quite naive, so don’t bully her.”
