Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

Chapter 629: Chapter 223 Zhong Tingyue: Senior, do you want to sleep under the same blanket?

Upon hearing Wang Jun’s words, Li Yuan had a sudden realization. The past week had been so peaceful and romantic that he had almost forgotten about the matter.

He casually replied, "Yeah, okay. I’ll go take a look in a bit."

After hanging up, Li Yuan turned to Zhong Tingyue and said, "Little Moon, come with me to look at a house later."

Zhong Tingyue looked confused. "Look at a house? Senior, are you buying another one?" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Li Yuan suddenly reached out, ruffled Zhong Tingyue’s hair, and laughed. "The house at Jinxiu Villas is a bit small," he said. "I’m planning to get a bigger one so we can fit a few more people. It’ll be more convenient!"

Zhong Tingyue fluttered her beautiful eyes, staring at Li Yuan with an odd look as she pouted. "Senior, are you having some improper thoughts?"

Li Yuan feigned bewilderment. "What kind of improper thoughts could I possibly have?"

"The house at Jinxiu Villas is already huge," Zhong Tingyue said, glaring at him with a delicate huff. "It has four bedrooms, which is more than enough for the two of us, with room to spare.

"And you want a few more people to live there? How dare you say you’re not having improper thoughts? Are you dreaming of everyone sleeping together under one big blanket?"

COUGH, COUGH! Li Yuan nearly choked on a mouthful of water. He had never expected Zhong Tingyue’s train of thought to jump so far.

She just said the things I only dare to dream about so bluntly. Even in my last life, during that period of self-abandonment when I used money to buy fleeting encounters, I never got to experience this kind of double pleasure! Two people together is one thing, but three... that would be far too shameful. Although, I do admit to dreaming about it sometimes... As a man, I refuse to believe anyone hasn’t fantasized about it at least once.

Li Yuan’s face flushed slightly as he immediately started to argue back, "Little Moon, how can your thoughts be so impure? You’re the one with the dirty mind, aren’t you?

"I’ll have to discipline you properly when we get home tonight." freewebnσvel.cøm

Zhong Tingyue pouted with a huff, giving him a speechless look. Then, she stared into his eyes with a sly grin and said, "Senior, do you dare to swear you’ve really never thought about it?"

"COUGH, COUGH... I swear..." Li Yuan raised his hand solemnly, but the words died on his lips. He finally confessed, "...that I’ve thought about it!"

PFFT. Zhong Tingyue pressed her lips together to hide a smile, seeing Li Yuan admit to having such impure thoughts.

An idea sparked in her mind. She decided to properly tease this big flirt.

Zhong Tingyue wrapped her arm around Li Yuan’s, hooking his chin with her slender fingers. Her seductive red lips drew close to his, and with breath as fragrant as orchids, she whispered alluringly, "Senior, if you really want that... it’s not impossible!"

"What?"

Li Yuan was thunderstruck. His eyes flew wide enough to swallow an egg, and his heart rate suddenly spiked to 180 mph. His mind conjured up all sorts of indescribable scenes as adrenaline surged through his veins. As his hormones began to rage, he felt his mouth go dry.

"Th-that... Little Moon, are you serious?"

Seeing Li Yuan’s excited expression, Zhong Tingyue thought to herself, This scoundrel is finally showing his true colors. To think he’d actually dare to have such thoughts.

"Mhm, Senior! But... you have to convince *her* first!"

Hearing Zhong Tingyue’s reply, Li Yuan was instantly enveloped by a wave of happiness. He knew exactly who she was talking about. Who else could it be but her roommate, Bai Weixi?

"Well... should I give it a try?" Li Yuan asked, his confidence wavering.

This feels like a tempting trap. Even if Zhong Tingyue loves me this much, would she really accept something like this so easily? It’s completely unbelievable.

Seeing Li Yuan’s flushed face and racing heart, Zhong Tingyue became even more convinced that he was a restless soul. He was audaciously bold, even willing to attempt something so utterly impossible.

Zhong Tingyue grinned and said nonchalantly, "Sure, go give it a try. What if she agrees?"

Zhong Tingyue was also secretly curious. What would Bai Weixi’s reaction be if she knew what Li Yuan was thinking? Just how far would she be willing to go for him?

For the past week, the two had tactfully avoided each other in the dorm, rarely meeting in order to prevent any awkwardness. Even when they did happen to run into each other, neither would mention Li Yuan. It was as if neither of them was in a relationship at all.

Meanwhile, the six people in the dorm had clearly split into two distinct cliques. She, Ding Shanshan, and Xu Tingrou formed one close-knit circle and were often seen together. Bai Weixi, Wang Lisha, and Deng Meiqi formed the other. The two cliques were clearly delineated and kept to themselves.

Although Zhong Tingyue disliked this atmosphere, the current peace was a compromise born from the more than ten days of absolute heartbreak and torment that had preceded it.

Li Yuan gave a sheepish smile. The whole thing felt too sketchy, so he once again resorted to changing the subject.

"The property manager is all set. Let’s go take a look now."

...

The property Wang Jun had introduced was in a community called Xinghe Bay. It was about a twenty-minute drive from Longyu Building and located along the Huangpu River. It was a top-tier luxury residential area, surrounded by glittering high-rises.

As soon as they entered the Xinghe Bay community, Wang Jun began to gush about the property’s merits. "Mr. Li, this is a detached villa with three floors above ground and one basement level. It has a private garage and garden. The total area is about 600 square meters. It’s already been exquisitely renovated but has never been lived in, so it’s essentially a brand-new house.

"The owner needs to go abroad for an urgent matter, so this excellent property just became available a few days ago. Since we’re acquainted, Mr. Li, I made sure to grab this listing from the others right away so I could show it to you first..."
