After going home.

The sun was shining on the roof when Xiao Re finally got out of bed lazily.

With full confidence, He Yingying threw the money at Xiao Re, slapping it even louder than the previous two times.

"Write this down!"

Xiao slowly put the money away and asked her with a smile.

"Hook, have you lowered it yet?"

"I've borrowed the money, I've set the hook. What's next? Should I borrow again tomorrow?"

The money came so fast, and the loans were so easy; He Yingying was addicted.

Even if Xiao asked her to recite the most explicit words or imitate the most unrestrained moans, she could still perform them without changing her expression.

"Borrowing again? Don't you understand the rule of 'third time'?"

"I reckon He Xiuxiu has been squeezed dry. Now, it's time to close the net!"

"Close the net?" This question was a bit profound, and He Yingying didn't quite understand it.

"How do I collect it? What do I need to do?"

Xiao Re chuckled softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes as if he were looking at a fool. His tone was casual, yet every word was calculated.

"Nothing needs to be done. We just need to move to another room."

"Change rooms?" He Yingying was stunned for a moment, her mind not quite processing it. Then she became anxious, glaring at Xiao Re with a wary and domineering expression.

"Why would you want to move out of here when you're already living comfortably? Don't think that just because you've switched places with me, Zheng-ge will treat you better. Let me tell you, Zheng-ge is mine!"

Xiao rolled her eyes, her tone full of impatience and a hint of condescending sarcasm.

"It's yours, it's yours, take it!"

"You actually wanted to sleep with me just because I asked you to act?"

"If you don't want your brother Zheng to be reported and punished, then you should stay in that room and not move."

As long as it's for Zheng Ge's good, He Yingying would be willing to exchange her life for anything, let alone move to a different house.

Besides, the room was spacious and well-lit, so she actually got a good deal.

"Okay, I'll start packing now."

"Wait!" Xiao Re stopped her. "What are you moving now? Are you trying to alert them?"

"I'll move the blankets over tonight and switch places. Once the fish bites, that room will still be mine."

"I can't stand living in this shabby house of yours."

He Yingying's face turned red and white as she choked on her words. She felt angry and frustrated, but dared not argue back. She could only stomp her foot and let out a muffled groan.

"Let you be so smug!"

"Why didn't Brother Zheng kill you last night!"

Spending a lot of time with Xiao Re has made He Yingying's tongue sharp.

In the past, she would never have uttered such shameful and vulgar words.

Xiao Re was stunned by the retort and couldn't say a word for a long time. This damned bastard has actually learned to talk back.

They were really tough on them.

I couldn't find a good reply to her for a while.

After a long pause, he finally managed to utter a sentence.

"Come on, we weren't done having fun last night! Why not make some money?"

Lu Yanzheng, who had just returned from outside, heard this sentence as soon as he entered the door.

A surge of inexplicable anger suddenly rose from his abdomen.

"What? Not satisfied?"

He stepped forward, reached out and grabbed her chin, the force not too light, but with an unyielding strength, and bit her directly.

"If you've got the guts, don't beg for mercy tonight!"

Xiao Re felt a pang of panic when he bit her, her eyes went glazed over, and she instinctively shrank back, her voice trembling softly.

"I'm just kidding, you can't take it seriously!"

Oh my god! This is terrible! She's in deep trouble! She had no idea Lu Yanzheng would come home at this time.

I should have known better than to be so argumentative.

This man was as strong as a tiger, as powerful as an ox, and had more energy than a seahorse; she really couldn't handle him.

"Really? It sounds like the truth to me!"

Lu Yanzheng looked down at her, a low, husky laugh in his throat, his fingers gently caressing her reddened lips.

Before Xiao Re could even open her mouth to defend herself, her cheeks flushed red with anxiety, He Yingying rushed out and added insult to injury.

"Zheng-ge, don't believe her nonsense. She was complaining about you this morning. She said you didn't eat, you were weak and lacked energy, and your technique was terrible."

Lu Yanzheng's face was dark and gloomy, his aura suddenly dropped, and his dangerous eyes were filled with raging anger. His back teeth were clenched tightly.

He wished he could swallow this reckless woman whole.

"Xiao—re—"

Xiao Rexin panicked suddenly, her scalp tingling with fear. She hurriedly tried to explain herself, her voice trembling.

"He Yingying, shut up! I...I...I didn't say anything!"

"You said it! I remember it perfectly!"

He Yingying just wanted Zheng Ge to teach her a lesson. She even made a smug face behind the door.

Xiao was so angry that his teeth itched. He was flustered and anxious, and he almost wanted to strangle this argumentative person on the spot.

That jerk! He's usually so timid and cowardly, but now he's quick to speak, hitting the mark every time.

Tonight, she's really going to get me into serious trouble.

"Ha!" Lu Yanzheng sneered.

His narrow eyes were slightly upturned, filled with a dangerous yet lustful aura.

"Have a meal!"

"I'm full, I'll have plenty of energy to work!"

Upon opening the lunchbox, a rich and savory aroma of meat wafted out.

There was crispy pork, free-range chicken soup, and a steamed egg custard.

After eating only vegetables and radishes for several days in a row, Lu Yanzheng worried that the two women in his family were lacking in oil and fat.

Especially that pretentious troublemaker, so delicate and precious, she must have been exhausted last night, she needs to be properly nourished.

So he went to the Heping Restaurant specifically to buy these refreshing dishes. But when he got home, he heard her say that she hadn't had enough.

Looks like I'll have to step up my game tonight.

He wouldn't be Iron Leopard if he didn't make her unable to get out of bed.

Evening had passed, and before dusk had fallen, Lu Yanzheng's eyes were fixed intently on Xiao Re.

They kept urging me to eat, drink, and take a shower.

"Hurry up!"

"No dawdling!"

How could Xiao Re not dawdle! She really didn't want to serve him. This strong, muscular man had no skill whatsoever, only brute force.

"Why are you rushing me? Where's the money? Is it ready? I don't do business at a loss."

Lu Yanzheng secretly slipped her another large bill.

I just got paid this month, and I originally planned to use it to help He Yingying, but I lost two large bills in just two nights.

These days, money really doesn't last long.

After receiving the money, Xiao Re felt that his body could still handle a bit more.

These two nights' earnings are equivalent to her father's monthly medical fees from working himself to the bone.

Widow Cui was right; girls should learn some ways to manipulate men so they won't suffer losses.

Earning a hundred dollars a night like her is probably unprecedented in the entire residential compound.

Xiao touched this and that, tidied up, opened the window and made noise, but just wouldn't go to bed.

Lu Yanzheng was so anxious that his stomach was practically steaming, and he didn't even go inside.

"Xiao Re, hurry up! You've already taken the money, so what's the point of doing your job?"

Xiao glared at him angrily and scolded him in a low voice.

"Quiet down, don't talk nonsense. Wait a little longer, they haven't arrived yet, what are you panicking for?"

Lu Yanzheng seemed to sense something, his brows furrowed slightly, he suppressed his agitation, lowered his voice, and leaned closer to ask her.

"What are you waiting for?"

"mouse!"

With those two simple words, Lu Yanzheng instantly understood. He patiently picked up a book that Xiao Re often read and casually flipped through it.

A bunch of numbers and symbols, like a book written in heaven, completely incomprehensible, and I have no idea what this woman is learning every day.

Seeing that it was still early, Xiao Re gave Lu Yanzheng another instruction.

"Take your sweetheart out for a stroll. I promised, so she won't complain about me breaking my promise later."

"Be nicer to her! Speak softly! Be affectionate. She's your childhood sweetheart and fiancée, after all!"

Hearing her heartless words, Lu Yanzheng felt a lump in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out. This woman was clearly seething inside but stubbornly refusing to admit it. Was he praising her magnanimity, or was he saying she was heartless?

"I'm not going!"

"If I go, you'll definitely cause me trouble!"
