"You finally decided to show up. I haven't seen you in two days."
Fang Minhui blinked her beautiful eyes, her gaze soft and watery.
Ever since that wonderful night, Fang Minhui always found herself unintentionally thinking about Shen Yuan.
But to say she was thinking about him... wasn't exactly thinking about all of him...
This feeling was strange because she wasn't sure if she was thinking about Shen Yuan the person, or Shen Yuan's body?
Alas, it's true what they say on the internet, once you open the gates to such things, they become like a flood of beasts that can't be closed back up.
"Yeah, I've been a bit busy these two days," Shen Yuan replied.
"Okay then."
Fang Minhui pointed at the drink in Shen Yuan's hand and said, "I just saw you at the convenience store when I was buying stuff with Chen Ling, so I got you a bottle of AD Calcium."
"Oh right, and here's a straw too."
Fang Minhui also handed over the straw she was holding in her other hand.
"Thank you."
Shen Yuan took the straw, turned his head to look at his two roommates who were standing dumbstruck, and laughed:
"Next time if you see the three of us together, just buy three bottles, or I'm afraid they might beat me up later."
"Haha, sorry, I definitely will next time."
Fang Minhui's eyes smiled, "I'll head off first then, let's chat on WeChat."
"Sure."
Shen Yuan waved his hand, and then Fang Minhui, with a satisfied expression, turned and left.
Huang Haibao and Cao Shunjin were completely dumbfounded, watching her alluring figure slowly disappear from their sight, unable to react for a long time.
Especially Huang Haibao, his gaze slightly vacant, it took him a while before he managed to turn his head: "Old Third, what's going on here, why did the class belle suddenly bring you water?"
Shen Yuan smiled mysteriously: "I told you, the class belle likes handsome guys like me."
"Impossible! Absolutely not!"
Huang Haibao vehemently denied, unable to believe that his long-admired class belle would fall for Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan was no longer the affluent Shen Yuan, his family had gone bankrupt, and now he was just another guy sharing a cramped dorm room with them.
But then again, if the class belle wasn't into Shen Yuan, how would one explain the AD Calcium he was sipping on?
And the way the class belle had looked at Old Third, as if she was about to melt; how in the world would one explain that?
Cao Shunjin pursed his lips: "Old Third, what's the real deal here, explain it to us?"
Cao Shunjin was feeling uneasy too, Shen Yuan had only just broken up with his senior not long ago, and now he was already hooking up with the class belle?
"Alright, alright, alright!"
Shen Yuan thought, with over a million lying in my account right now, you could empty the beer stock of the barbecue restaurant, and it would not be a problem.
College students in the throes of adolescence, their passions come quickly and go quickly too.
When the three sat at a roadside diner and several bottles of beer were downed, Old Huang and Old Cao returned to their usual demeanors.
But when they looked at Shen Yuan again, their gaze inevitably changed.
It was no surprise Old Third had the cash to splash on upperclassmen.
But now Old Third was as poor as a church mouse and yet still managed to snag the class belle, that wasn't just about the money anymore.
Maybe, there really were some tricks and unique skills they hadn't considered.
Thinking about this, Huang Haibao couldn't help but ask, "Old Third, how on earth did you hook up with the class belle, can you share some tips?"
Old Huang might curse, but he knew he had no chance with the class belle.
After all, the class belle never even looked him straight in the eye.
The reason he felt it was unfair was because he saw the current Shen Yuan as just like him.
So why on earth would the class belle like Shen Yuan?
Shen Yuan disdainfully said, "What do you mean by 'hook up'?"
"You make it sound so crude, it's about mutual admiration, mutual attraction!"
"Quit bullshitting, Old Third, just spill it."
Cao Shunjin was actually very interested too; they hadn't dated much and were especially curious about the unknown.
"There's not much to say, but you guys will slowly understand in time."
Shen Yuan expressionlessly filled his glass with beer, offering no further explanation.
How the hell else could you hook up?
If you had money, you could do it too!
But obviously, he couldn't discuss such reasons with Old Huang and Old Cao.
On one hand, Shen Yuan wasn't the type to boast; furthermore, the source and origins of his money still required legitimate business to cover up.
So Shen Yuan thought it best to speed up the process of cashing in; with more money, he could invest in more businesses and gain more legitimate sources of income.
Investing was a time-limited task. The System had given him only a week, and of the exclusive investment fund of one million, he had already transferred 700,000 yuan to Li Yuhang, leaving 300,000 yuan needing quick deployment.
Although he had helped his family pay off a debt of 200,000 yuan last time, he probably still owed over 900,000 yuan. Although the creditor wasn't an annoying relative like Shen Yaode who would knock on the door demanding repayment, owing money for a long time was always somewhat irritating.
As Shen Yuan pondered silently, the trio inadvertently finished their drinks, then Shen Yuan settled the bill, and the three, with heavy bellies, happily made their way home.
