Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

Chapter 660: Chapter 232: Net Worth Over a Hundred Million, Bai Weixi’s Special Invitation

Looking at Li Yuan’s reply on her phone, tears suddenly streamed down Bai Weixi’s face, soaking her cheeks.

"Stupid brother, if you really forgot, I’ll hate you for a lifetime."

Bai Weixi muttered to herself, terrified that Li Yuan had forgotten the first birthday they were supposed to celebrate as a couple.

That night, Bai Weixi tossed and turned, unable to sleep a wink.

「In Jinxiu Villas.」

Li Yuan returned from his shower and looked at Zhong Tingyue, who was already fast asleep beside him. Her long, pale legs were kicked out from under the covers, looking particularly dazzling. They were as slender and pure as white jade, and he recalled how they felt as light as air when he’d held them.

"Such a beautiful girl, and yet she kicks off her blankets."

Li Yuan chuckled and muttered, pulling the blanket up to cover Zhong Tingyue.

The weather had already turned to autumn, and the nights had grown cooler. In another two months, it would be the New Year.

Yawning, Li Yuan felt tired himself. After entering Sage Mode twice in a row, his body was starting to send him warning signals. He seriously wondered about those couples who lived together and had sex several times a day. How strong did a man’s body have to be to keep that up day after day? He had been at it for less than a month and was already feeling exhausted.

It’s like drinking; overindulgence makes it easy to go too far, and eventually, the body just can’t take it anymore.

Fortunately, he was still young and at the peak of his vigor. With the added cheat of his rebirth, he could still manage. If there were a few more women, he really wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Li Yuan picked up his phone and checked his messages. He saw that Bai Weixi hadn’t responded after he’d told her, "Taking a bath, sleep early."

Li Yuan flipped through his messages. Hmm? Why do I feel like I’ve forgotten something really important?

But he couldn’t remember what it was at the moment.

Li Yuan scrolled through his other messages. The person who messaged him most often every day wasn’t any of his three girlfriends, but Big Breast Girl. Ever since that thrilling incident in the seafood restaurant restroom half a month ago, Big Breast Girl had been messaging him daily. Her desire for him was so blatant in her texts that it left him speechless.

However, Li Yuan couldn’t be bothered to reply. He didn’t block her either, simply leaving her messages on read. His attitude was crystal clear.

In a word: uninterested!

Aside from Big Breast Girl, the sexy instructor Qi Siyu, his "Goddess," would also occasionally send him a few messages, usually about requesting songs. Li Yuan was completely baffled by Qi Siyu’s intentions. He felt he couldn’t handle her right now—not because she was "too much" for him, but because he was wary. He had just managed to straighten things out with his three girlfriends, reaching a temporary state of peaceful coexistence where they didn’t bother each other. He didn’t dare provoke any other women; that would be explosive.

Even if he had the nerve to want her, he didn’t have the guts to act on it!

So, for the past few days, he had been intentionally avoiding this sexy Goddess.

Li Yuan was about to turn off his phone and go to sleep when it suddenly vibrated with a new message. Picking it up, he saw it was a QQ message from Xu Zhi.

"Hehe, Yuan, you asleep? We’re planning to come see you guys tomorrow. What’s the plan for the evening?"

Li Yuan typed back, "Tomorrow? Isn’t that Friday? How come you’re free? Don’t you have class?"

Xu Zhi replied, "What the hell, Yuan? You didn’t forget about that important thing tomorrow, did you?"

"Important thing? What’s that?"

Xu Zhi wrote, "No way, Yuan! It’s Bai’s birthday tomorrow! Did you really forget? Yuchen, Handsome Guy, and I already made plans to celebrate with our sister-in-law."

Li Yuan’s mind went blank for a second, then snapped into focus. So, tomorrow was Bai Weixi’s birthday. No wonder he felt like he was forgetting something important. Recalling the messages Bai Weixi had sent just a short while ago, he instantly understood everything.

Li Yuan coughed and replied, "How could I forget? I just thought you guys didn’t know."

Xu Zhi replied, "Yuchen reminded me to get a gift a week ago. I couldn’t forget even if I tried!"

Li Yuan wrote, "Alright. By the way, Dazhi, how are things with you and Little Chili? What stage are you at? Are you back together now?"

Xu Zhi responded, "Still the same, more or less, though a little better than before. That girl is so strange. The closer you get, the more she pulls away. But when you try to keep your distance, she comes on strong again. She’s impossible to figure out..."

"Uh, Yuan... there’s something I have to tell you. Please don’t get mad, okay?"

"What is it? What did you do to piss me off this time?"

"Ahem, Yuan... well... a few days ago, I sold some of my Bicrown Di stock and cashed out."

Before Li Yuan could reply, Xu Zhi hurriedly explained himself. "I’ve been broke lately. I want to take Yuchen on nice dates and eat good food, but I can’t let her pay. I’ve been surviving on steamed buns and chili sauce because I’m too embarrassed to ask my parents for more money, and I can’t borrow from my classmates—my roommates are even poorer than I am... so I sold off 20% of my shares for some emergency cash..."

Li Yuan smiled. "What’s there to be angry about? They’re your stocks. You can sell them whenever you want."

"I was just afraid you’d be mad, Yuan. I actually wanted to ask you about it that day, but you were busy, so I didn’t want to bother you. I only sold 20%. That shouldn’t be a big deal, right?"

Li Yuan replied, "What’s the issue? That stock is pretty much at its peak right now anyway. It’s not likely to see another major jump in the short term. If you were going to sell, now is a good time. I’m actually planning to sell off some of my shares too."
