Chapter 394: 294. Crack

"Guan Guan~"

"What’s up?"

"Yeah, I was so tired yesterday, didn’t check my phone."

Zhou Sinin squinted her eyes, her entire body soaked in the bathtub, with her thighs and calves forming a triangle, and a section of her pale knee surfaced above the water.

She held her phone in one hand, chatting with her bestie.

"You mean the route... Well, your suggestion was pretty good, my mom and Aunt Lin have made peace too, so let’s go with our plan."

"Uh-huh, sure."

"Shopping? Maybe not, I want to sleep in a bit more."

Her light tone blossomed like flowers in winter, as Zhou Sinin relaxed the nape of her neck, her arm resting on the edge of the bathtub.

"Let’s have lunch together, at noon."

...

"Yo, it’s rare to hear our darling say no to shopping. Is the sun rising from the west?"

As soon as the call ended, Lu Jincheng teased her immediately.

"It’s all your fault..."

Zhou Sinin’s cheeks flushed like peach blossoms, and she glared at him intensely.

"What did I do wrong?"

"Wasn’t it for your happiness last night?"

Lu Jincheng said with a half smile.

"The first time wasn’t that fulfilling, I’ll make it up to you next time..."

She opened her arms, signaling Lu Jincheng over, and while hugging the man’s arm, she whispered mischievously,

"Hey, but how come you’re so amazing?"

"It’s alright, we’ll need to change the sheets though."

"Don’t you dare say that!"

Zhou Sinin bit down hard on his arm, then followed it with gentle kisses on the same spot.

The smooth scent of lilacs glided over Lu Jincheng’s arm, and as he watched Zhou Sinin, he noticed the girl had added many charming touches to her every move.

...

At lunch, Lu Jincheng noticed that Guan Yongyi had two prominent dark circles under her eyes.

"It’s fine, I just didn’t sleep well last night."

The short-haired girl’s hair was a bit messy, and the ends weren’t curled as usual, she had left the house with a bare face.

When her bestie expressed concern, Guan Yongyi forced a smile, which seemed a bit strained.

"What’s wrong?"

Zhou Sinin asked with a beaming smile, looking much more polished compared to the disheveled Guan Yongyi.

From her manicure to her outfit, the little princess was fully decked out.

"Oh right, I remember now, you’re a bit of a sensitive sleeper."

"It’s going to be tough when we go out for the winter vacation~"

"Well... it doesn’t matter much, I’ll get used to it."

At the table, Guan Yongyi’s expression was blank, and her fingers gripped the chopsticks a bit too tightly.

She didn’t glance at the man opposite her even once, acting as if he were just air.

Fortunately, most of the conversation during the meal was carried by Zhou Sinin and Lu Jincheng.

It made her seem not so intentionally distant.

This was the first meal they had together since Lu Jincheng left the Ran Dong WeChat group.

No one brought up that question.

That extremely embarrassing and difficult question to broach.

Why did Lu Jincheng leave the group?

What did leaving the group mean?

As if his departure was insignificant, unnoticed by anyone, without causing the slightest ripple.

"Si si, maybe... do you want to change your clothes?"

Halfway through the meal, Guan Yongyi couldn’t hold back any longer.

She pointed at the red marks around Zhou Sinin’s neck and chest, offering a kind reminder.

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sinin blushed and rummaged through her bag as though she had just noticed.

She took out a small mirror and looked over it carefully.

"Oh no, I got dressed in such a hurry this morning, I totally forgot..."

The brown-haired girl stuck out her tongue, her big, watery eyes darting around, wearing a look of pure innocence.

Today, Zhou Sinin wore a deep V-neck white sweater that highlighted her figure while also making the marks on her body quite clear if one sat too close.

As to what kind of marks, it goes without saying for adults.

Guan Yongyi didn’t need to ask, and Zhou Sinin hadn’t needed to explain.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that she couldn’t stand Zhou flaunting herself in front of her, Guan Yongyi would never have brought it up.

"I know you two are close, but try to be a bit more discreet..."

Guan Yongyi seemed devoid of any emotional fluctuations, eyes cast down as she sipped the milk tea in front of her.

"It’s all your fault!"

Zhou Sinin clenched her small fist and punched Lu Jincheng, who was quietly eating his meal.

"..."

In the way real couples communicate, the man should have picked up the conversation and displayed some affection.

But Lu Jincheng suddenly kept silent, uncertain of what to say.

He always felt that Guan Yongyi’s emotions were like standing on a tightrope, ready to fall at any moment.

Her messages from last night had had a strange tone.

And today, she wouldn’t respond to any messages.

Even when Lu Jincheng had gone to knock on her door, she’d acted as if she didn’t hear.

Dark circles under Guan Yongyi’s eyes were evident, and she didn’t bother with concealer or touch-ups, clearly angered.

Maybe she had stayed up so late sitting in front of room 1308, eavesdropping!

If she had heard the sounds of their passionate love, it would be like a heavy blow to Guan Yongyi’s heart.

Who could endure that?

She had just recently experienced all this as a young girl!

So, wrap it up, Zhou Sinin.

Enough is enough, Zhou Sinin.

That should be it.

"You don’t understand, Guan Guan. When you fall in love, you’ll know. Sometimes, you just can’t control certain things."

Zhou Sinin straightened her back and lifted her chin, her captivating eyes swirling with the air of a victor.

It seemed like she hadn’t said much.

Yet she had said everything.

Indeed, intimate relationships can’t be controlled.

He and she had naturally progressed to the final step.

What’s wrong with telling the whole world about it?

"Oh?"

"Am I the one who doesn’t understand?"

Guan Yongyi put down her chopsticks and looked up at Zhou Sinin with a smile.

In that instant, she too straightened up, her gaze sharp and chilling.

Their eyes met, and silent sparks exhausted themselves in midair.

"I don’t think it’s such a big deal."

The short-haired girl bowed her head once more, pulling a tissue and wiping her mouth, her lips pressed tightly together.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Zhou Sinin took it as Guan Yongyi being stubborn and didn’t take it seriously, laughing off the topic before getting up and heading towards the restroom.

"Lu Jincheng."

Guan Yongyi didn’t even look up, timing Zhou Sinin’s distance before her clear voice echoed in the private room.

"Huh?"

This was the first time Guan Yongyi had spoken to him all day.

Lu Jincheng blinked.

"Come here."

The short-haired girl still had a frosty expression, her eyes and brows emanating a standoffish air.

"What’s up?"

The man stood up, tiptoeing to peer down the corridor outside the private room, then cautiously sat down beside Guan Yongyi.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat, Guan Yongyi leaned in at an angle and pounced on him.

Her arms wrapped around Lu Jincheng’s neck, her lips desperately close, as if trying to pull his entire being into her body.

A forceful kiss.

This was the first time Lu Jincheng had been kissed by a girl with such determination.
