She Slept

"Send it to Hu Yuying, send it to Hu Yuying immediately. I'm going to expose Long Aotian's true colors!" Ye Liangchen roared in fury.

He was already preparing to ruin Long Aotian's reputation, yet the man showed no remorse—even daring to do such vile things to Hu Yuying. Unbearable. Absolutely unbearable.

"Fine, then let’s start the plan early. First, we’ll make sure Hu Yuying sees Long Aotian for who he really is!" Xue Shaohua snarled with equal venom.

This was beyond insulting. Long Aotian, that bastard, had gone too far!

As he spoke, Ye Liangchen opened the QQ interface, scrolling frantically before realizing—he hadn’t even added Hu Yuying as a friend yet.

"I don’t have Hu Yuying’s QQ!"

"What?" Ye Liangchen panted heavily, his chest heaving.

He couldn’t accept this.

Hu Yuying was supposed to be his. Now, Long Aotian had taken her away.

Did that bastard even care about him at all?

He probably didn’t realize he was about to be destroyed. How dare he act like this? Unforgivable!

Taking a deep breath, Ye Liangchen forced himself to calm down, suppressing the rage boiling inside him.

"One last time. This is the last time I let Long Aotian lay a finger on Hu Yuying. If he dares again, I won’t hold back!"

Hearing this, Xue Shaohua also steadied himself.

Hu Yuying had never cared about his feelings, but this was the final straw. If he caught Long Aotian with her again, he wouldn’t hesitate—no matter the cost—to send those photos straight to her.

Sure, it might expose Long Aotian’s wickedness prematurely and disrupt their plans, but this was their last warning.

"Got time later? Let’s grab a drink." Xue Shaohua tossed his hair back, inhaling sharply.

Today had pushed him to his limit.

"Meet at the usual spot." Ye Liangchen hung up without another word.

"Long Aotian, you shameless bastard. Just you wait—I’ll make sure you pay dearly for what you did to Hu Yuying today!"

"Damn it! You took her away first thing in the morning. Are you even human?"

His gaze lifted to the sky, voice softening.

"Don’t worry, my treasure. Just hold on a little longer. I’ll save you from this misery. I’ll restore everything you’ve lost."

A single tear slid down his cheek as he closed his eyes.

"No matter how much you hurt me, my heart stays true."

Wiping the tear away, Ye Liangchen ignored the curious glances around him, flicked his hair, and strode toward their meeting place.

When they met, the two exchanged bitter smiles, clinked glasses, and downed their drinks in one go.

"I can’t take this anymore. We were so close to having Hu Yuying, and then that bastard Long Aotian swoops in again? It’s infuriating!" Xue Shaohua slammed his cup down.

"Why does someone like him get her affection? I refuse to accept it!"

"You think you’re the only one?" Ye Liangchen scoffed. "Trust me, I’ll make sure he regrets crossing me."

Before, he might not have dared say it. But now, with those photos in hand, he had some leverage.

After all, no one could tolerate a cheating, two-timing scoundrel.

Hu Yuying wouldn’t stand for it. Li Qingxue wouldn’t either. And someone as pure and untouchable as Lin Wanning? Absolutely not.

Too bad all they had so far were some staged hand-holding shots.

It wasn’t enough. They needed irrefutable proof—something to destroy Long Aotian in one blow, leaving him no chance to recover.

"What’s your problem? Why haven’t you added Hu Yuying on QQ yet?"

"You think I haven’t tried? She won’t accept my request!"

Ye Liangchen exhaled sharply, flicking his hair to reveal the earrings on both ears.

"Let me try."

Xue Shaohua snorted. If he couldn’t get Hu Yuying to add him, what made Ye Liangchen think he could?

Shaking his head, he handed over Hu Yuying’s QQ number.

Staring at the digits, Ye Liangchen recalled the sweet dreams of his past life, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

He sent the request.

Then waited, eyes glued to the screen.

One minute. Two minutes.

With a self-deprecating laugh, he was about to close the app—

Then his phone buzzed.

Both men froze, then exchanged hopeful glances.

Ye Liangchen unlocked his phone.

In the reply section under the friend request, Hu Yuying’s message appeared:

[Yuying’s asleep. She’ll reply tomorrow when she wakes up.]

Their grins vanished instantly. Stunned, they looked up at each other.

In their bewildered eyes, two pitiful figures stared back—utterly defeated.

......

Setting the phone aside, Long Aotian gently stroked the sleeping girl’s hair.

Watching her peaceful expression, he couldn’t help but chuckle, poking her soft cheek playfully.

So adorable. His little darling was too precious, even in sleep.

"Mmm~" Hu Yuying let out a drowsy murmur.

She rubbed her tousled hair, nuzzling against Long Aotian’s lap before blinking awake. Noticing how long he’d stayed in that position, guilt flickered in her eyes.

"Sorry, Long-ge… The bed was so comfy, I didn’t mean to fall asleep."

Long Aotian pinched her cheek affectionately. "Your phone buzzed earlier. Someone sent a friend request. Want to check?"

Hu Yuying shook her head.

Random people added her all the time.

She already had all her real friends on QQ. No need for strangers.

"What time is it, Long-ge?"

"Let’s see… 9:40."

"Ah? I slept for two hours?!" She bolted upright, scrambling off his lap.

"What’s wrong?" Long Aotian steadied her, treating her like fragile glass.

"Did your legs go numb?" She reached down to massage them.

Before she could, Long Aotian pulled her into his arms.

"Don’t move. Your Long-ge’s at that age where once he’s had a taste, restraint isn’t easy."

Hu Yuying’s face flushed pink. She playfully thumped his chest.

"Mean! Long-ge, you’re so mean…"
