Love Variety Show: The despised me exploded in popularity

Chapter 659: Chapter 346 Fairness_2 Chapter 659: Chapter 346 Fairness_2 “Forget it, just send over some dishes and other things,” Xu Qingyan thought for a moment, “I’ll contact you later, you don’t need to worry about the rest.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Qingyan was still pacing in the living room.

He decided to take a shower in the communal bathroom first.

Since his clothes were in the master bedroom, and Pei Muchan was sleeping inside, he didn’t feel it was right to get them, so he simply went to the study and got pajamas.

Aside from Lin Wanzhou’s guest room, none of the other places had beds made, and the study didn’t have a bed.

He had dismantled it to turn the room into a game and workroom since he didn’t often stay at this house.

After showering, Xu Qingyan knocked on Lin Wanzhou’s door again and got no response.

He tried calling as well, but it was still a state of no reply, which was also normal.

Pei Muchan hadn’t paid him any mind earlier.

He thought it over and decided to try the method he had just used.

It should be able to stir a hint of emotion in Lin Wanzhou, after all, they weren’t without feelings; they had accumulated intimacy over a long time.

Success or failure depended on tonight, or to be precise, on these few days since the community was already under lockdown.

In fact, the state of affairs tonight would determine the direction of events for the next few days.

If things were a mess today and turned rigid, he wouldn’t bother with it.

Then Pei Muchan would gain the initiative, and Lin Wanzhou’s resentment would become completely unbalanced.

And with Xu Qingyan in the middle, he wouldn’t have any room to maneuver.

After some thought, he knocked on the door and said.

“Zhouzhou, I know you’re upset, can you open the door so we can talk?”

Inside, it remained silent, not the slightest sound was made.

“Since you don’t wish to talk, we’ll have to wait until tomorrow.

Good night.” Xu Qingyan sighed outside the door, “I’m going back to sleep in the master bedroom now, she let me…”

This tactic was akin to a nuclear bomb, and he was betting with his own life on it.

The door swung open with a sound, and Lin Wanzhou appeared behind it, her eyes brimming with tears.

Without a word, she pulled him into the room; both of them were already dressed in pajamas.

She wept while fumbling with her clothes, and before she could say anything, he kissed her.

Her uncontrolled emotions instantly found an outlet, running rampant throughout the room.

After a long while, Lin Wanzhou just cried.

At 3:30 in the morning, she became too tired to cry anymore.

Holding Xu Qingyan, she said a lot, and Xu Qingyan also said much, trying to soothe her emotions.

His decision, based on the situation, wasn’t to obtain understanding from both women, but to maintain balance.

This was an enclosed space, and the downstairs was sealed off.

Xu Qingyan couldn’t do anything but balance the emotions of both women.

This was extremely important, at least ensuring that neither of the women would become overwrought and then…

Do something out of emotional control, or perhaps something that would be forever etched in their hearts.

Once the lockdown is lifted, they might leave forever, swearing never to contact him again.

That was something he didn’t want to see.

The reason was simple: if it weren’t for the lockdown, in Xu Qingyan’s plan, he would lay his cards on the table in one night, and then try to appease both women.

By dawn, both would leave and not give Xu Qingyan a second glance.

In that case, both women would be hurt, and only Xu Qingyan would be to blame.

The hatred would all be on Xu Qingyan, and only after dispelling the hatred could there be a turning point in the relationship.

After tomorrow, even if Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou were to leave him.

But Xu Qingyan was confident that he could make each woman only angry at him and not so disappointed as to leave the country.

If that were the case, things would be completely out of control.

Who knew a lockdown would happen suddenly, now that it was impossible to leave for three days.

As time went by, both women not only harbored anger toward Xu Qingyan.

But also towards each other, as if the harm was transferred.

If the two women started fighting, regardless of who won or took the upper hand, Xu Qingyan would still not win; it was even possible that in the end, he would not be able to keep either, and that would be the most terrifying outcome.

Therefore, to divert their attention, it was necessary to balance the contradictions between the two sides.

Even if it was just a strawberry, he had to split it evenly in half.

After calming Lin Wanzhou down, Xu Qingyan quietly left the room.

He couldn’t sleep in any one person’s room, and even sleeping in the guest bedroom wasn’t ideal.

Plus, he was too lazy to make the bed in the guest room; it was best to sleep in a conspicuous location.

So the couch became the first choice, after Xu Qingyan finished washing up, he found a quilt from the guestroom and sprawled on the living room sofa browsing on his phone, only to realize it was already past four in the morning.

He could be busy if he chose to be, but he could also afford not to be.

The company’s workshop system relied almost solely on initiative; working meant earning money.

Even with the boss absent, everything would still function as usual.

Thus, Xu Qingyan opened the property owners’ chat group.

Even though it was past four in the morning, there was still a flurry of people chatting in the group.

From their tone, they seemed to be middle-aged, either locked down themselves or with family members who were.

“How come it’s so sudden this time?

We didn’t even have time to buy groceries.”

“I have no idea, I’m out of town, and my wife, kids, and the elderly are back home.

They didn’t say how long the lockdown would be.

Does any boss have concrete news?”

“No one does, we’re all in the same boat.

But the property management said they would bring supplies over tomorrow morning.

Heard it’s all for free, telling us not to panic.”

Xu Qingyan looked around the group but didn’t find any topics of substance.

He was also feeling sleepy by then, his eyelids heavy, so he simply went to sleep.

In the morning, he was awoken by a peculiar disturbance.

Still groggy, he opened his eyes, only to find Lin Wanzhou sitting on him, which had him instantly wide awake.

however, Lin Wanzhou was particularly stubborn, and suddenly the atmosphere in the living room changed.

Pei Muchan in the master bedroom slowly woke up.

She usually went to bed early, and staying up late as she did last night was quite unusual for her, so she woke up later than usual.

She was planning to get up and wash up, feeling a little dizzy.

She couldn’t quite remember what happened yesterday, and it took a while before she remembered going wild last night.

It seemed like she left Xu Qingyan to tie up the loose ends, who carried her to the bathroom to clean her up and then back to bed.

He was as considerate as always.

Suddenly hearing noises outside, she was about to open the door.

Just as she cracked it open a bit, the noises from outside become clearer…

Almost immediately, Pei Muchan lost all drowsiness.

Too familiar, this scene, she did the same thing yesterday.

But Pei Muchan was ultimately shy, embarrassed to do it outside.

In a moment of heat, she had only made a fuss from within her room, through the door as a form of protest, and now the other party had responded.

Listening to the noises outside, Pei Muchan was seething with anger.

She bit her lip almost wanting to charge out, but then she remembered that Lin Wanzhou didn’t knock last night either.

If she went out to confront now, wouldn’t she be breaking her own defense first?

With that thought, Pei Muchan inhaled deeply and slowly closed the door.

Enduring her anger, she went to wash up in the bathroom.

Despite the double doors, she could still hear faint noises that made it impossible for her to calm down.

Is this Lin Wanzhou?

In the living room…

After much contemplation, Pei Muchan still suppressed her anger, waiting until there was no more commotion outside before she emerged.

She walked around the living room.

Lin Wanzhou had already returned to her room, leaving only Xu Qingyan present.

Pei Muchan gave him a cold glance and got up and walked towards him.

In no time, Lin Wanzhou was confined to her room until noon.

Xu Qingyan stood in the living room, wondering what this was all about.

But the current situation had to be maintained, and he was also looking for a possible breakthrough.

Because of the lockdown, lunch could be ordered in a box or they could simply take vegetables.

As for boxed lunches…

Xu Qingyan immediately ruled them out, afraid that with the current situation, it might lead to a fight.

So, he went downstairs to collect some vegetables and then offered high prices in the owners’ group to buy ingredients.

In theory, many families in such upscale communities had large fridges or employed housekeepers, so they had plenty of stock and were not short on cash.

But the situation was unclear, and most people were hoping the lockdown would be lifted in a few days.

They cited many examples, such as some city a little further away, bla bla.

Closer to home, some areas of Dongzhou City had already lifted the lockdown.

So, seeing Xu Qingyan’s offer, the wealthy families in the community were tempted.

The price was too good, and while they weren’t in need of money, they didn’t dislike it either.

Selling a little for ten times the profit…
