Financial freedom starts from graduation

Chapter 534 Shen Yutong's "Bargain Hunting"

Feeling Cui Min'er's large expanse of smooth skin pressed against him, Zhou Wang, who was still holding a tissue in his mouth, could only make an innocent expression.

He really didn't expect Cui Min'er to be so easily amused.

He didn't do anything special; at most, he just swung a little too hard, but Cui Min'er suffered real damage, and her health bar might even have been completely depleted...

However, it may also be related to everyone's clothing. The game designers probably didn't expect that men and women would wear the most convenient swimsuits to play this kind of game.

The atmosphere at the scene was strangely quiet for a minute or two. Zhou Wang also noticed the subtle changes in Su Yajing's expression. What Zhou Wang couldn't understand was that there didn't seem to be much anger or jealousy in her expression.

In the end, Zhou Wangxian couldn't help himself and patted Cui Min'er's smooth back in a serious manner.

"Are you OK?"

Choi Min-ah really wanted to say, "How dare you ask me that?" But by this time she had recovered and realized something was wrong. She quickly let go of Zhou Wang as if she had been electrocuted, and sat back down in her original seat with a red face.

"No, it's nothing... I think I just had heatstroke, I feel a little dizzy."

Cui Min'er made up a bunch of nonsense with a straight face, and then, without waiting for the girls to ask any further questions, she quickly started spinning the wine bottle on the table.

"Wow, Duoduo, you've fallen for it again!"

When the bottle stopped in Yu Duo's direction, it was Su Yajing who was the first to clap and cheer, looking like she was egging her on.

This made Zhou Wang glance at Su Yajing thoughtfully.

For some reason, after the game incident with Cui Min'er, Su Yaqing seemed to have become somewhat different. It was a subtle feeling that Zhou Wang couldn't quite put his finger on.

"Then, then I..."

Yu Duo was still a little flustered, but when she reached for the wine glass, Cui Min'er stopped her.

"Hey, didn't we agree that we have to play games now? How could you drink again?"

"Ah, do...do we have to play games?"

"Of course, Ranran and I both had fun. You two can't just keep drinking, right, Tongtong?"

Choi Min-ah said it as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Her cheeks still had a burning redness, and her thoughts were simple... I can't be the only one who loses face.

Yu Duo immediately looked to Shen Yutong and Su Yajing for help.

Shen Yutong is one thing, she's never had much of her own opinion, so it's normal for her to look away and seem at a loss. But why is Sister Ranran just smiling at me, acting like it's none of her business and she's watching the show?
Yu Duo was a little confused, but urged by Cui Min'er, she still reached out and drew a card from the deck.

The person who draws the card bites on an ice cube and writes a word on the neck of the nearest person of the opposite sex until that person can guess what was written (the word must have at least 5 strokes).

Yu Duo's expression was alright, and she didn't seem too shy... mainly because she subconsciously felt that the game seemed okay, and there was nothing shameful about it. It was just writing words on her neck with ice cubes, right?

At least, it's much better than Min'er's game.

Although Yu Duo didn't know how to write with ice either.

Only Cui Min'er, standing to the side, revealed an ambiguous expression. She then urged Yu Duo to take a piece of ice from the ice bucket and stepped aside so that she could walk to Zhou Wang's side.

With an ice cube between her rosy lips, Yu Duo mumbled, "Zhou Wang, you...you come down, I'll do it..."

Zhou Wang found Yu Duo's adorable appearance somewhat amusing, but still sat down as instructed, slightly raising his chin to expose his neck.

Yu Duo thought of a word in her mind, then lowered her head and leaned down, holding Zhou Wang's shoulder as she moved closer to him.

At this moment, Zhou Wang was also shirtless with his well-defined upper body, wearing only a pair of swim trunks. The strong masculine scent wafted to Yu Duo's nose the moment she approached, making her face slightly red. She glanced at Su Yaqing beside her with a guilty look.

Despite forcing herself to remain calm, Yu Duo's body trembled slightly. She realized that the game was not as simple as she had imagined.

She hasn't even touched it yet, and she's already starting to lose her balance...

Lost in her thoughts, Yu Duo finally approached with an ice cube in her mouth, and then she discovered the second difficulty of the game.

When she had ice in her mouth, the ice was slippery, and her skin, which was also wet with ice water, became slippery. This made it difficult for Yu Duo to even complete the first stroke, let alone write.

But if she wanted to find more leverage, she would have to put more ice in her mouth, which would inevitably cause her lips to touch Zhou Wang's neck.

...It's as if she's flirting with Zhou Wang, which is really embarrassing.

Although she had already explored even more shameful places, the situation was completely different now, with three pairs of eyes watching her.

So Yu Duo tried hard to find a balance, but she couldn't quite get it right. Either the ice cube almost slipped off, or she ended up kissing him directly, making herself incredibly embarrassed before Zhou Wang could even react...

Seeing that the ice would melt if she dragged it out any longer, Yu Duo, who was getting impatient, didn't care about anything else. She simply swallowed the remaining ice and used her slightly protruding red lips to gesture on Zhou Wang's neck.

"hiss!"

The combined stimulation of warmth and cold made Zhou Wang gasp, but this also made the strokes clearer.

"Did you... guess it?"

"Yes, it's the character '朵' (duǒ)."

If Su Yajing hadn't been there, Zhou Wang would have pretended to be naive and insisted that Yu Duo write it several more times. However, seeing that Yu Duo's face was already as red as if it were about to bleed, Zhou Wang didn't continue to tease her and simply nodded and gave the answer.

Yu Duo breathed a sigh of relief and quickly scurried back to her seat.

……

11 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock...

The clock on the wall keeps ticking away.

Later on, even Zhou Wang became a little dizzy.

Later, perhaps because it wasn't exciting enough, whether it was Cui Min'er who suggested it or Su Yajing who started it, the loser of each round not only had to play the game, but also had to drink a glass of wine.

In this way, even the prepared tequila wouldn't be enough for five people.

The two newly opened bottles of tequila had long since run out, and the situation at the scene was getting out of control.

After the first game, the four girls, who were already quite drunk, seemed to have abandoned all inhibitions and were willing to play any game on the cards, regardless of whether it was a game or not...

Even the usually reserved Shen Yutong lost her temper when pushed to the limit.

Why are you all all lovey-dovey there while I, an honest person, can only stand here blushing and watching?

So when she picked up a cookie from the table, put it in her mouth, and invited Zhou Wang to eat it with her, Zhou Wang knew that Shen Yutong was actually drunk.

But... let's just get drunk.

Amidst the pool filled with warm, fragrant, and soft jade, Zhou Wang vaguely recalled many fragmented scenes.

He forgot the specifics of the game, but he remembered kissing Yu Duo in public through the playing cards. Yu Duo's fingers were gripping his shoulders tightly. Later, Zhou Wang realized that the playing cards had somehow fallen into the crevice between Yu Duo's chest. He also remembered jumping into the pool with Cui Min'er. Cui Min'er playfully clung to his shoulder, clinging to him like seaweed, struggling to swim a lap.

He remembered that when Shen Yutong was playing a game with him, someone suddenly pulled off the tie around her neck from behind, and her swimsuit got stuck halfway down.

He remembered a sweet taste that was like vanilla ice cream.

I remember a large peach that had been crushed into two halves, so plump that it seemed as if you could squeeze out its juice with just a little more force.

I also remember the detail of a cherry hidden in the cream and rubbing against my teeth while I was engrossed in eating a certain dessert.

After everyone got into the swing of things, the scene became confusing and chaotic.

Yet it seems that boundless joy is hidden within this unrestrained behavior.

"When you are drunk, you don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that overwhelm the stars."

When everyone was finally too exhausted to fool around anymore, Zhou Wang vaguely remembered this line of poetry that had been used to death, but it was still particularly appropriate in this context.

"When I wake up, I still see the moon swaying on the waves; I laugh as I realize that the world is a net of traps."

Zhou Wang added a couple more lines to his own words, then gently patted the soft buttocks of a girl who was lying on the sofa, seemingly belonging to someone else, and nodded in satisfaction.

I'm a fucking genius!

……

At three in the morning, the unexpected pool party finally came to an end. Zhou Wang, who hadn't relaxed like this in a long time, found that he was really a little drunk.

Because he was woken up by someone else, Zhou Wang was helped downstairs by a girl beside him in a daze. He heard the girl talking in a soft voice.

Zhou Wang tried hard to open his eyes wide, attempting to discern what those sounds were.

As warm water poured down from above, Zhou Wang finally regained a sliver of consciousness, and the murmurs that had been lingering in his ears became clearer.

"...Zhou Wang, I really miss you, and my sister too...she misses me too..."

Zhou Wang turned his head and saw that he was in the bathroom, and the girl next to him was tiptoeing and trying to wash his body.

She wore a half-length bright yellow swimsuit, which did not expose her vital parts, but the half-covered appearance became so alluring after she got wet.

The size was particularly noticeable in one particular spot, which was shockingly inappropriate.

Having already spent the entire night teasing her, Zhou Wang couldn't help but reach out and wrap his arms around her slender waist, eagerly feeling the pressure from her contrasting curves.

"ah!"

With her cheeks flushed and her eyes still slightly dazed, Shen Yutong probably didn't expect Zhou Wang to suddenly wake up at this moment. However, she didn't panic. After her cheeks turned red, she obediently leaned into Zhou Wang's arms and even slightly raised her hands so that Zhou Wang could hold her in a more comfortable position.

"Why are you alone? Where are the others?"

Zhou Wang's body wouldn't obey him; he didn't try to control his hands, but just casually asked.

"They're all still asleep. I was thinking of helping you to bed first, and then taking care of them..."

Shen Yutong whispered.

So you were pretending to be drunk just now?

Zhou Wang was somewhat surprised that Shen Yutong was the most clear-headed one.

"I... I didn't know I could drink so much. I feel like I can't drink anymore, but I don't think I'm very drunk... Don't move, let me put some shower gel on you."

Shen Yutong explained softly, then blushed and pushed away Zhou Wang's mischievous hand.

Zhou Wang thought it wasn't surprising. Women are naturally more gifted than men when it comes to drinking, so often when you think someone is drunk, you don't realize that the switch between being a hunter and a predator can happen in the blink of an eye.

"I heard you mention your sister earlier?"

Watching Shen Yutong gracefully squat down to apply shower gel to him, Zhou Wang vaguely remembered something.

Shen Yutong paused, then nodded slightly, "Mmm..."

"How is she doing lately? Is her ex-husband still harassing her?"

“The phone has been ringing constantly, but my sister has never answered it… She went back to her hometown in Guangxi Province first, wanting to secretly go and see Yangyang.”

"She's alone?"

Zhou Wang frowned subconsciously, wanting to say something, but considering Shen Yutong's feelings, he ultimately said nothing.

"Zhou Wang, alright, you... why don't you go lie down on the bed first, I'll take a shower too..."

At this moment, Shen Yutong turned off the tap and whispered. She glanced at Zhou Wang, her cheeks seeming to turn even redder, but there was also a hint of unease in her expression.

Zhou Wang realized what was going on and glanced at Shen Yutong with a strange expression. Shen Yutong immediately lowered her head even further.

An eerie stillness settled over the bathroom.

In the end, Shen Yutong couldn't hold on any longer. She looked up in a panic, her eyes dimming uncontrollably.

"Well, what I mean is, you can go and take Ranran back to her room first, and I'll take care of Min'er and Duoduo later..."

Snapped!
Shen Yutong gasped and covered her buttocks.

"What are you thinking about all day? Do you think that because Ranran is here, I will keep my distance from you and pretend that nothing happened?"

Zhou Wang said irritably, then reached out and lifted Shen Yutong's smooth chin, "Since you've already made your choice, of course I won't go back on my word. Or are you saying you no longer want to be my woman?"

"I...I think, I think, in my heart, you have long been...my man."

Shen Yutong felt much more at ease and quickly answered in a low voice.

"So that's why you took advantage of the situation, dragged me back to the room all by yourself, and planned to do something indecent to me?"

Zhou Wang said something in a sneaky way.

Shen Yutong's cheeks flushed even redder. She didn't dare to look Zhou Wang in the eye, but because Zhou Wang's fingers were hooked on her chin, he could still feel the slight curve of her nod.

Zhou Wang's heart fluttered. It was especially alluring when the rather shy Shen Yutong displayed such a slightly wanton demeanor.

"Since that's the case, you helped me wash just now, now it's my turn to help you wash."

The cascading water flowed swiftly, and amidst the rising steam, Shen Yutong's suppressed gasp could be faintly heard.

"No...not here...uh!"
