"Again?" Su Yang checked his WeChat.
Winnie: Su, you should still be awake by now, right?
Jiali: Su-san, are you asleep? How about another chat?
"Damn!" Su Yang stared at the two messages, lost in thought. "What do I do? Who do I pick?"
"Maybe I could call them both over?"
"Forget it, forget it, that can't stream. Hmm... I chatted with Jiali yesterday. Tonight it's Winnie."
"But Jiali is really..."
Just as he was talking, another WeChat message came in.
He thought it would be Zhuang Mengli, but when he looked, it turned out to be Ren Lingxi.
"Lingxi?" Su Yang switched to the chat screen.
"Brother Su Yang."
"What's up, Lingxi? Something on your mind?"
"I wanted to ask when we're heading back to the country."
"You want to go back?"
"Not really. I've been having a great time with everyone these past few days, but something suddenly came up at home, so..."
"Something at home? Is it urgent? If it is, we can leave tomorrow." Su Yang worried it might be something serious, like an elderly relative passing away.
"It's not that urgent, but I might need to go back the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow? That works. Actually, even if you hadn't mentioned it, I was thinking we'd head back then."
"Perfect then."
Su Yang thought for a moment and typed: "Lingxi, if there's anything at home you need help with, don't hesitate to tell me, okay? No need to be shy."
"It's nothing like that. It's my grandmother's eightieth birthday the day after tomorrow. I completely forgot until my mom reminded me."
"Oh, I see. An eightieth birthday is a great occasion. You should definitely go. It's a bit late now, but I'll let everyone know tomorrow, then we'll book the tickets and head back the day after."
"Okay~ Thanks for understanding, Brother Su Yang."
"Come on, you don't need to be so polite with me."
"[Hehe]"
[Ding, detected that Ren Lingxi's affection for the host has increased to 80. Reward: 5 million, plus a point card!]
—Oh? Just a chat got me points? So many things before didn't boost it. Strange.
—But at least the system finally remembered to give me the card.
Ren Lingxi: "Brother Su Yang, if you don't have anything else, you should get some rest. I'm going to sleep too."
"Alright, sleep early. Goodnight."
"Goodnight~"
After leaving the chat with Ren Lingxi, Su Yang leaned back against the headboard, once again torn between Winnie and Jiali's messages.
He was about to reply to each one when a message from Zhuang Mengli came through.
"Are you done yet? If you are, get over here now!"
"You think I'll come just because you say so?"
"Come on~ I've put on a sexy little nightie just for you~"
Seeing this, Su Yang's eyes widened: 'Damn? This little minx loves to pull stunts, doesn't she? Fine, sorry Winnie, Jiali.'
Just then, noticing Su Yang hadn't replied, Winnie sent another message.
This time, it was a picture.
Su Yang clicked over and immediately swallowed hard.
It was a sexy selfie. This wasn't even a hint anymore—it was a blatant invitation.
"Holy crap!!"
Su Yang typed back: "Winnie, what's this supposed to mean? Did you send it by mistake?"
"No mistake. I thought you might be asleep again."
"No, I was just in the shower."
"Figures. Su, want to come by my room for a bit? [Wiggling finger]"
Jiali then chimed in: "Su-san? You going to bed this early today?"
Zhuang Mengli: "Where are you?!"
Su Yang: ...
Faced with the barrage from the three women, Su Yang felt a bit speechless.
Was this what they called the trouble of happiness? Being good-looking really was a hassle sometimes.
After a couple of seconds of deliberation, Su Yang ultimately turned down the invitations from Winnie and Jiali. Sure, he'd have plenty more chances with Zhuang Mengli, but what could he do? She was Zhuang Mengli.
Whether it was her face or her figure, the other two couldn't compare to her.
Their only edge was the novelty and excitement of a new acquaintance.
But in the end, looks won out over all that clutter. Face came first.
After politely declining each of them, Su Yang got up, opened his door, and headed straight for Zhuang Mengli's room.
Click.
The door swung open, and Su Yang saw Zhuang Mengli lying in bed, wrapped in the covers.
"I thought you'd gone to find some other beauty," she said with a smile.
"Other beauty?" Su Yang closed the door and walked over to the bed.
"Yeah, aren't there two beauties next door?"
"Compared to you, can anyone else be called a beauty?"
"Oh? Your mouth's sweet today."
"When is it not? Where's that sexy little nightie you mentioned?" Su Yang couldn't wait to feast his eyes.
"Lift up the covers and see for yourself," Zhuang Mengli said, biting her lip with a seductive smile.
Su Yang grabbed the covers and hesitated. "You're not... wearing nothing..."
"How could I be? I've got it on."
"Alright then."
Swoosh—
Su Yang threw back the covers to reveal a set of "nightwear" that defied description.
"Holy cow?!" Su Yang felt his blood rush. "You, you, you..."
"What do you think? Does it work?"
"It works perfectly!"
"Then what are you waiting for?"
Gazing at the alluring Zhuang Mengli, Su Yang didn't hesitate. He flicked the light switch on the wall and climbed onto the bed.
...
At four in the morning, Zhuang Mengli couldn't take it anymore, dead tired, and they finally fell asleep.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning at ten, the others gradually woke up.
Like the day before, Su Yang had quietly slipped back to his own room at eight.
Today, Han So-yeon and Jin Xiangmei went out to play with Jiali and the other three. No one else had plans, and Liu Bo went to the front desk to extend their stay.
At noon, everyone had lunch together in the restaurant, then spent the afternoon lounging by the pool.
Liu Bo booked the return tickets in advance. Their flight tomorrow morning would take off from New Chitose Airport in Sapporo at 10:30, fly directly to Shanghai, and then transfer to Haicheng.
After dinner, Han So-yeon and the others finally returned.
Since Su Yang and his group were leaving the next day, everyone suggested going to the bar one last time for a farewell drink.
At nine in the evening, the full group of seventeen gathered for the first time at the hotel's in-house music bar for drinks and conversation.
They settled into a huge booth.
"So-yeon, when are you two planning to head back to Shanghai?" Su Yang asked her while they waited for the drinks.
"Probably a couple more days. After you leave tomorrow, Xiangmei and I were thinking of checking out Osaka before flying back."
"Got it. Winnie, Betty, when are you two heading back to England?"
"Probably another three or four days."
"Alright. Then tonight's really the farewell. Who knows when we'll all meet again."
"Yeah, even though we haven't known each other long, I feel like we've been best friends for years. I'm really going to miss you guys," Winnie said a little sadly.
Betty nodded too. "Same here."
"We have an old saying back in our country: 'All feasts must end.' If fate allows, we'll meet again!" Su Yang said with a smile.
"That's right, there's still a long way ahead; there will definitely be chances to meet again." Meng Wenzhou took out a cigarette and said.
"I have a suggestion~" Jiali raised her hand at this point.
"What suggestion?"
"How about we take a group photo together?"
"Great! That's a good idea. Come on, let's ask that waiter to take it for us." Meng Wenzhou waved and called over a waiter.
Then, the group sat in a row, made a hand gesture, and took a big group photo.
"All done. I'll send it to you guys later." Meng Wenzhou said with a smile.
"Sounds good! Tonight, let's drink freely—no getting drunk, no going home!"
