"Yu Ying, now it's just the three of us. Tell us, what did you and my brother do last night?"
In the double room with only two bathtubs, Lin Wanning stood under the shower, washing herself while asking with keen interest.
She was dying to know how her brother had managed to make Hu Yuying so sensitive.
Not just Lin Wanning—Li Qingxue was equally curious.
Hearing this, Hu Yuying sank a little deeper into the water. "We didn’t do anything."
"Are you saying Long Aotian just held you while you slept, and that somehow made you this sensitive?" Li Qingxue wasn’t buying it.
"Come on, Yu Ying, just tell us. We won’t tell anyone. Who knows, maybe we can even give you some advice," Lin Wanning coaxed.
The two of them were like wolves trying to trick a little rabbit into opening the door.
Hu Yuying looked at them and knew they wouldn’t let it go unless she gave them something.
Besides, she really could use their advice. Sometimes, she just didn’t know what to do.
Long Aotian cherished her, but she had no experience. While some things didn’t require being a natural, she had never gone through them before.
She could tell Long Aotian was holding back sometimes, and she often felt unsure how to respond.
So, under their combined pressure and persuasion, she revealed a little.
Like how her body would react strangely whenever she touched Long Aotian.
Or how she’d become even more sensitive whenever she misbehaved and he punished her.
Lin Wanning, hearing this, stepped closer to Hu Yuying.
Seeing Wanning place one foot in the bathtub, Hu Yuying shifted to make room for her.
Leaning in close, Lin Wanning whispered in her ear, "What kind of strange feeling was it?"
Hu Yuying bit her lip and shook her head. There were no words to describe it—no vocabulary in the world could capture that bewildering sensation.
"Don’t worry. Tonight, Qingxue and I will share some tips with you. We’ll make sure you can win over my brother," Lin Wanning assured her.
Hu Yuying stole a glance at Lin Wanning, then at Li Qingxue, before finally nodding shyly.
She was determined to win Long Aotian over.
After their bath, dressed in fresh clothes, they all felt lighter.
"Done!" Li Qingxue exclaimed, looking at her phone with excitement.
"What’s done?"
"A while back, I asked my friend to design the layout for our online store. It’s ready now."
As she spoke, Li Qingxue shared a few screenshots with Hu Yuying and Lin Wanning.
"It looks amazing! Thank Wang Rui for us. If we get the chance, we should treat her to a meal," Hu Yuying suggested.
Having spent so much time with Long Aotian, she’d grown more perceptive about social niceties.
"Sure! When we go back to Haiwan City for the holidays, we can all meet up," Li Qingxue agreed cheerfully.
"Wanning, you’ve never been to Haiwan City, right? When we’re on break, you should come. Yu Ying and I will show you around."
Lin Wanning’s hometown wasn’t too far from Haiwan City—just over a hundred kilometers away—so they could easily visit each other’s cities.
"Yeah, if I get the chance, I’ll definitely come," Lin Wanning promised earnestly.
After all, she was just an extra in their lives.
If the online store succeeded, she could finally stand on her own. Maybe then she wouldn’t feel like such a burden.
"Then it’s settled!" Li Qingxue said excitedly.
The three of them made a simple, fleeting little pact.
"So, what should we do now?"
As they spoke, their gazes drifted toward Hu Yuying. They couldn’t wait for nightfall—to pull this innocent girl into their world.
Like Li Qingxue had said, Hu Yuying needed just a little… experience.
Hu Yuying thought for a moment. Since she’d already set aside the day for them, she might as well not think about Long Aotian and just enjoy her time with her two best friends.
"How about we go to the shopping street?" Hu Yuying suggested. She could even buy Long Aotian some new underwear.
Last night, while tidying up, she’d seen the underwear in his suitcase.
One pair even had a hole in the back, but he still hadn’t thrown it away.
Men really knew how to make their underwear last.
Without Long Aotian around, it felt a little strange.
But the three of them still had plenty of fun.
By afternoon, they were worn out from all the excitement.
Hu Yuying checked her phone. "Should we grab some groceries and cook at Long Aotian’s place later?"
Li Qingxue and Lin Wanning immediately shook their heads.
They loved Hu Yuying’s cooking, but tonight, they had more important plans.
"Tonight, you’re ours. We’ll eat out, and then… we have some secrets to share with you," Li Qingxue said with a mysterious smile.
"Don't worry, my brother can take care of himself. We agreed that today you’re ours—not a minute or a second less."
Hearing this, Hu Yuying felt a little happy. She hadn’t expected to be so important to Li Qingxue and Lin Wanning.
She nodded. "Alright then."
Li Qingxue took Hu Yuying’s hand and giggled. "I knew you’d agree, Yu Ying. Trust me, by the end of tonight, you’ll thank us."
Hu Yuying glanced at her. "I don’t believe you. You always exaggerate."
"I’m not exaggerating! I’m living proof."
"What exactly is it?"
Faced with Hu Yuying’s question, Li Qingxue smirked proudly. "You’ll find out tonight."
Unable to get an answer from Li Qingxue, Hu Yuying turned her gaze to Lin Wanning.
"We’ll tell you tonight," Lin Wanning said with the same mysterious tone.
Though burning with curiosity, it seemed she’d have to wait until evening.
So secretive… and yet, she couldn’t help feeling a little excited.
8:00 PM.
Long Aotian checked the time, stood up, and turned on the courtyard lights.
Then he sat back down, tilting his head to gaze at the night sky.
In just ten minutes, he checked the time twenty times—clearly, his calm exterior didn’t match his restless mood.
Finally, he stood and walked to the alley entrance, staring down its length as if waiting for someone.
"Why isn’t she back yet?"
Thinking this, he pulled out his phone to call Hu Yuying.
She’d been gone all day.
The call connected instantly.
"Long Ge—"
"Long Aotian, don’t you trust us with Yu Ying? What, you think we’d sell her off or something?"
"Bro, Yu Ying isn’t coming home tonight. She’s ours today—go warm your own bed..."
Long Aotian opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, the call ended.
Staring at the disconnected screen, listening to the distant clamor of street vendors still echoing from the call, he let out a helpless chuckle...
