Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

When they were in the dorm, Zheng Yanyan once asked Lu Lin, "Linlin, you said before that men think with their lower half and once they get it, they’ll always want it, but why hasn’t Zhou Yuwen approached me at all this week?"

Pouting, Zheng Yanyan was completely baffled.

Chewing gum, Lu Lin said listlessly, "I don’t know. Maybe Zhou Yuwen is a gentleman."

"Ah, it’s so annoying! I really want to go sleep over at Zhou Yuwen’s place!" Zheng Yanyan was very frustrated.

Lu Lin said, "If you want to go, just go."

"That won’t do, if I go over myself, wouldn’t it be too improper? I was thinking, going once every weekend might be somewhat justifiable."

"Oh," Lu Lin blew a big bubble.

She was indifferent.

Zheng Yanyan only went once a week, whereas Lu Lin and Zhou Yuwen met up twice a week. They never stayed over, but on Wednesday afternoons during the society activities, when Zheng Yanyan went to the Literature and Arts Department to practice dancing, Lu Lin always had an excuse to leave. @@novelbin@@

Then she and Zhou Yuwen would do it twice at home.

Being with Lu Lin was very comfortable since there were extra services; Zhou Yuwen just had to lie there without doing anything.

Then Lu Lin would take a sip of yogurt from the fridge. Enjoy exclusive adventures from NovelBin.Côm

Kneeling beside Zhou Yuwen, she would lean over.

Of course, sometimes it wasn’t yogurt; sometimes there was hot water.

These were all things Zhou Yuwen had taught her. Lu Lin often rolled her eyes at Zhou Yuwen, saying he was a player.

After everything had ended, Zhou Yuwen would hold Lu Lin and lie with her on the bed for a while.

The first time, Lu Lin didn’t even have to undress. Zhou Yuwen liked her in those slightly flared jeans that gave a real sense of a student, holding her slim waist—it was quite comfortable.

"Who’s being a player here?"

"Would Zheng Yanyan do this for you?" Lu Lin sometimes naively asked such questions.

Zhou Yuwen said she definitely wouldn’t.

"It’s you who treats me well; sometimes I really want to dump her and be with you."

Every time he said this, the corners of Lu Lin’s mouth couldn’t help but rise, and then she’d say insincerely, "You’re just trying to make me happy."

Zhou Yuwen said, "Why would I lie to you?"

"Why don’t I break up with her now? I really want to be with you," Zhou Yuwen said.

"I don’t want that," Lu Lin refused outright, playing with her fingers while nestled in Zhou Yuwen’s arms and murmuring to herself, "Given Zheng Yanyan’s temper, if she knew you dumped her to be with me, I don’t know how she’d slash me."

"Oh, you’re afraid of her then?"

"Not afraid, but it would be very annoying."

"Sigh, I now finally understand why men like mistresses; mistresses indeed understand things better," Zhou Yuwen said.

Lu Lin narrowed her eyes and climbed onto Zhou Yuwen: "Who’s your mistress?"

"You are, aren’t you?"

"I certainly am not."

Lu Lin said this and covered Zhou Yuwen’s mouth.

The two kissed on the bed.

Next, the main event started...

The freshman welcome party was held the second week of school, by mid-October.

By late October, a heavy rain had fallen.

The rain lasted all night, and Lu Lin stayed over at Zhou Yuwen’s place. Neither of them slept much that night. Lu Lin was very stubborn, though her threshold for endurance was limited, she wouldn’t speak out.

The next day she felt her legs tremble as she walked.

Zhou Yuwen asked her if she felt unwell.

She shook her head and said it was nothing.

Given her state, anyone with eyes could tell what she had gone through, so she made the excuse that she was at the internet café all night, and then didn’t come back because it rained at night.

But others might guess, saying Linlin probably has a boyfriend now.

Zheng Yanyan also gossiped with Zhou Yuwen while they were eating in the canteen, whispering to Zhou Yuwen’s ear, "Husband, I think Linlin has a boyfriend now?"

"How do you figure?" Zhou Yuwen asked.

"I’m telling you, Linlin didn’t come back to the dorm last night. She said she was up all night at the internet cafe, but you should see how she walks, and, from behind, Linlin seemed to be like this." Zheng Yanyan said, stretching out her index fingers to Zhou Yuwen to demonstrate.

Initially, she put the index fingers together.

Then slowly spread them apart.

Zheng Yanyan couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle after saying that.

Zhou Yuwen, hugging Zheng Yanyan, said, "She’s your close friend, and you spread rumors about her like this?"

"Oh, what do you mean by ’spreading rumors’? I definitely won’t tell anyone else, but you’re my boyfriend!"

Zhou Yuwen said that still isn’t something you can just say.

"Oh," Zheng Yanyan pouted, appearing guilty, and said, "Okay, I won’t say it anymore."

"I just think Linlin is really wild, husband, tell me, you wouldn’t treat me like that, right?" Zheng Yanyan asked.

Zhou Yuwen said it’s possible if the feelings are right.

"Hmph, you don’t love me."

"What makes you say that?"

"You never take the initiative to have me visit your house."

Zhou Yuwen said, "I’m just maintaining a gentlemanly demeanor in front of you."

"Oh, what’s there to maintain between spouses? I want to see your most natural side." Zheng Yanyan held her chin in her hands, batting her eyelashes.

Zhou Yuwen said then fine, tomorrow I’ll make you unable to walk too.

"I don’t want that, it’d be embarrassing."

After it rained, the weather began to get colder. At first, Zheng Yanyan stubbornly wore skirts and shorts for a couple of days, but as the weather turned colder and colder, Zheng Yanyan dragged Zhou Yuwen shopping, buying a few autumn clothes.

When going out shopping with Zheng Yanyan, most of the money was spent by Zheng Yanyan, and although Zhou Yuwen was wealthy, it hadn’t reached a point where he reimbursed all of Zheng Yanyan’s expenses.

Moreover, most of the time Zheng Yanyan would voluntarily offer to pay, even buying a few autumn clothes for Zhou Yuwen.

She was very image-conscious in front of Zhou Yuwen; she did not want to appear vain or to be with Zhou Yuwen just for his money.

And the girls are all very smart, don’t think they don’t understand anything. They are very clear in their minds, being with Zhou Yuwen who drives her every day, plus Zhou Yuwen’s spacious flat, are luxuries others can’t enjoy. Zheng Yanyan being with Zhou Yuwen had already taken a significant share of resources, if she also let Zhou Yuwen pay all the time, even if Zhou Yuwen didn’t mind, others would talk.

So Zheng Yanyan was clear that it was only reasonable to spend a bit more on Zhou Yuwen, buying clothes, paying for meals, thus making their relationship truly equal.

Zhou Yuwen’s expenses were indeed over budget this month. At the courier station alone, he spent nearly a hundred and fifty thousand, starting with a loan of a hundred thousand, and later taking over ten courier stations, where some tricycles and electric bikes needed replacing. Between different schools, Zhou Yuwen communicated with the courier company, planning to directly appoint a full-time courier with a monthly wage of six thousand yuan plus benefits, which Zhou Yuwen would cover.

Plus, Liu Shuo always wanted to order the same uniforms, Zhou Yuwen, occasionally indulging Liu Shuo, wasn’t surprised that Liu Shuo was willing to sell his life for Zhou Yuwen.

All of this miscellany totaled about fifty thousand by the end of October; the courier stations at ten schools were fitted with uniform blue outfits, all bearing a uniform logo.

Even the tricycles carrying the parcels bore the logo of Xu Huai’s organization; of course, Zhou Yuwen didn’t let them print the words "Xu Huai’s organization." As the organization grew, seeing the logo would be enough for people to recognize it as Xu Huai’s, and regarding the text, it was better left unprinted to avoid giving a bad impression.

A company called Xianlin Labour Company had been registered before; now with the expansion of the courier services, another called Xianlin Courier was also registered.

By the end of October, Zhou Yuwen’s finances had somewhat recovered. The investment on the Hong Kong side had grown nearly six-fold; this kind of thing could actually be traded by someone else.

But Zhou Yuwen still made a trip to Hong Kong himself, cashing out all his virtual investments in one go.

Thus, Zhou Yuwen had an additional thirteen million in cash at his disposal.

By the time Zhou Yuwen returned to Jinling, it was already November.

Just off the plane, he felt a gust of cold wind.

Oh, autumn had arrived.
