731 -329: Love Can Never Escape the Fear of Gain and Loss

Tao Tian originally wanted to share a kiss goodbye with Zhou Yuwen, but Minmin suddenly showed up.

Great, just great.

Feeling slightly guilty, she hadn’t figured out how to explain things to Minmin.

Yet Minmin had already started to complain: “Tiantian!

Why are you only getting back now?”

“Did Zhou Yuwen buy all these for you?”

Minmin could be considered a minor goddess herself, wearing a leather jacket paired with a black leather skirt today, and her jade legs sheathed in sheer tights dubbed ‘Divine Artifact’ matched with long boots, definitely scoring high on the beauty scale.

But at this moment, she looked like someone who had never seen the world, eyeing the big and small packages in Tao Tian’s hands, her eyes practically glimmering with excitement.

Tao Tian was holding a total of eight packages, all emblazoned with the logos of Hermès and Gucci.

There was a box with a woman’s bag peeking out, that’s LV, Minmin had seen it online, priced at 26,000.

If the one peeking out is 26,000, then the rest of the packages can’t be far behind, right?

Minmin looked on, eyes shining brightly.

And Tao Tian said: “Oh right, could you help me hold these for a second.”

“Sure!”

These were all high-end luxury items Minmin hadn’t been exposed to before, so of course, she was willing.

After taking them, she sneaked a peek or two before helping Tao Tian out by exclaiming, “Wow!

Tiantian, Zhou Yuwen treats you so well!

Have you two made up?”

“Uh…”

In Zhou Yuwen’s presence, Tao Tian didn’t know what to say.

Zhou Yuwen, however, was understanding, saying, “You guys head back to the dorm to talk, I’ll be leaving first.”

“Um…

yeah.” The first ‘um’ that came out of Tao Tian was filled with reluctance in her eyes.

She had wanted a lingering farewell with Zhou Yuwen, but with Minmin there, she felt too embarrassed and ended up just nodding along.

Her gaze seemed to stretch out like strings, resting solely on Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen simply gave her a smile and then drove off.

After spending two clingy days with Tao Tian, Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin had actually been looking for Zhou Yuwen all this time, but it just felt weird to go find Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin right after being so intimate with someone else.

Sometimes you need a day to breathe.

So tonight, Zhou Yuwen didn’t look for anyone, instead headed to Zhonghai Garden to simply rest on his own, telling Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin that he would come see them tomorrow.

Apart from them, Jiang Xinyi had also been looking for Zhou Yuwen.

She and Zhou Yuwen were currently in a state that was more than just friends.

This kind of status was really irritating.

Especially for a girl like Jiang Xinyi, whose heart was just beginning to stir.

Not seeing Zhou Yuwen for a day, he was all she could think about, bombarding him with texts every day, asking him what he was up to.

Zhou Yuwen kept replying that he was busy.

The first day he was busy negotiating with people from each group.

The second day he was taken up with renovations.

He was telling the truth.

But Jiang Xinyi was not pleased at all, how could he be so busy?

Too busy even to reply to messages?

Zhou Yuwen said there was nothing he could do about it.

“After all, I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth, I have to work hard on my own.”

Zhou Yuwen lamented to Jiang Xinyi.

But Jiang Xinyi just snorted and accused Zhou Yuwen of talking nonsense.

“Earning millions a month, I don’t even make as much as you now.” During the three days of New Year’s break, Jiang Xinyi didn’t go anywhere, spending it all at home chatting with Zhou Yuwen.

She had originally wanted to ask Zhou Yuwen out to have fun, but Zhou Yuwen was supposedly too busy.

Zhou Yuwen would send Jiang Xinyi funny images.

The next day Zhou Yuwen said he was preparing for renovations at the villa.

After hearing this, Jiang Xinyi decided to go look for Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen said, “Don’t come over, I’m just here to take a look, and I have to go somewhere else in a bit.”

“Where are you going then?”

“To buy houses.”

Zhou Yuwen told Jiang Xinyi he was planning to buy three properties and even sent her the contracts to see.

Jiang Xinyi asked Zhou Yuwen why he was buying so many houses?

“Money doesn’t do much good sitting around, it feels safer to convert it into property.”

“What kind of logic is that.”

The two maintained contact, and by the evening, Jiang Xinyi couldn’t hold back her simple longing for Zhou Yuwen and suggested meeting up, but Zhou Yuwen wouldn’t come out.

So she just made a video call to Zhou Yuwen.

By that time, Zhou Yuwen had already arrived at Zhonghai Garden.

Once the call connected and Jiang Xinyi saw Zhou Yuwen, she felt a lot more at ease.

Zhou Yuwen smiled at the camera and asked her why all of a sudden she was calling him late at night.

“No reason, just haven’t seen you in two days, checking if you’re dead yet?”

Zhou Yuwen said she didn’t have to speak if she had nothing to say.

“I tell you, if it weren’t for Aunty Jing’s sake, I might really beat you up!” Zhou Yuwen teased Jiang Xinyi through the video.

At this point, Jiang Xinyi was lying in bed utterly bored.

Not convinced by his words, she said, “Go ahead and try, you probably can’t even win against me.”

“You’re too confident,” Zhou Yuwen scoffed.

Jiang Xinyi claimed she was a black belt in taekwondo.

Zhou Yuwen said that’s just to fool people.

Jiang Xinyi was annoyed and proposed to spar at some time.

“Forget about it.”

After saying that, Zhou Yuwen put his phone aside, ready to indulge in some gaming.

“Zhou Yuwen, what are you doing?”

“Playing a game.”

“What game?”

“Ah, you’re so annoying, do you have to ask even when I’m playing a game?” Zhou Yuwen’s response just slipped out without much thought.

But he didn’t expect that Jiang Xinyi would suddenly fall silent.

After finishing his game, Zhou Yuwen remembered he was still on video call with Jiang Xinyi and asked why she wasn’t talking.

“Nothing to say.”

Jiang Xinyi’s expression was clearly unhappy, but Zhou Yuwen didn’t delve deeper into it.

After all, Jiang Xinyi was not his girlfriend, and no matter how close they were at the moment, they were still just friends.

So Zhou Yuwen definitely wouldn’t waste time overthinking things.
