Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 144 The Detective Five Who Get Gossiped About Instead

How can two people of different ages, jobs, and living environments quickly find common ground?

This may seem like a simple question, but it contains a vast amount of knowledge. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't feel like they're being interrogated or having their census checked every time they go on a blind date or a date.

In this regard, our author of "Lüshi Chunqiu," a notorious scumbag who has ex-girlfriends every ten miles around, and the uncrowned king of love, Lü Xiaobu, might have his own unique insights and methods.

But for Nanfeng and Yumo, even though their worlds were almost completely different, they still had a shortcut to quickly make their conversations more relaxed and enjoyable.

That is, they have a mutual friend of many years: Hu Yifei.

"You know what? Yifei was telling me just a few days ago that she felt she was too fierce and no one was pursuing her, which made her very distressed."

Yu Mo's amused and exasperated voice came from the other end of the Bluetooth headset, making Xiao Xian and the other three look at Yi Fei in a very strange way.

I never would have guessed that you, Hu Yifei, would also be troubled by the fact that your fierce personality prevents anyone from pursuing you.

People thought you had a natural-born female demon personality, that you liked to let those who obeyed you prosper and those who defied you perish.

No matter what, one should have the attitude of "I am the queen, and I shine with confidence."

It turns out she's actually a girl who secretly wants to be in a relationship.

Zeng Xiaoxian almost burst out laughing, but he pinched his thigh hard to hold it back.

He likes to act foolishly and court death, but there's a difference between courting death and actually dying.

If you mock Yifei for having a bad temper, she might play around with you if she's in a good mood today. But if you mock her for having no suitors...

She's really getting angry.

My career as a TV host has just begun, and I can't let it be ruined by this ruthless woman.

The others also covered their faces to hide their expressions, pretending not to have heard.

This gossip wasn't what they wanted to hear, but it was far more shocking than they had imagined.

Having snapped out of their gossip, everyone is now no longer thinking about whether there will be any more explosive content later, but rather how to deal with Yifei's rage.

Walking at night too often will eventually lead to seeing ghosts, and listening to too much gossip will eventually bring trouble.

Curiosity really does kill the cat!

At that moment, Nanfeng's voice, which he couldn't help but chuckle, came from the other end of the earpiece: "I really didn't expect Yifei to have these kinds of worries."

"Last time Aunt Yuan called me and asked me to help find out about Yifei's relationship status. She even lied to me and said that the male teachers at school who wanted to pursue her could line up all the way from the school office to the door of room 3601."

"Look at the way she's bragging. I don't even need to listen to Yifei's heartbeat. Just by looking at her shifty eyes and the unnatural way she moves, I know she's lying."

Meijia and the others frantically rubbed their faces, afraid they would burst out laughing at any moment.

Zeng Xiaoxian even started biting his index finger, trying to suppress his laughter with pain.

[In his inner world, Zeng Xiaoxian, dressed as a scientific researcher, solemnly reminded him.]

[Friendly reminder: If you have two very close friends who belong to completely different social circles and have little interaction or familiarity with each other.]

Therefore, please, please, please do not give them the opportunity to sit at a table alone and eat or chat.

Otherwise, you'll find that they've pieced together all your embarrassing moments.

If you happen to be eavesdropping at this moment, and there are a few other friends with you, then the scene will definitely be...

[How embarrassing!]

Yifei's face turned pale and then red. She clenched her fists and stared intently in the direction where Nanfeng and Yumo were, wishing she could cut their tongues out.

You two are heartless! I've worried so much about you.

I've been working myself to the bone here, and you guys are just sitting here eating hotpot and chatting, and you even dare to bring me up in conversation?!

Yifei stood up, wanting to rush up and settle accounts with those two guys.

Xiao Xian and the others held Yi Fei tightly and covered her mouth. Mei Jia quickly lowered her head and typed a bunch of words, then swiftly placed her phone in front of Yi Fei.

[Peerless Little Diao Chan]: "Sister Yifei, calm down, please calm down! We were following and eavesdropping, so we're already in the wrong. If we rush in now, we'll only embarrass ourselves."

Yifei forcefully broke free from Zhanbo and Xiaoxian's embrace and angrily picked up her phone from the table.

【Feifeifei, the very beautiful giant rabbit】: "We're in the wrong, but does that mean they're right to talk about me behind my back?!"

Just as Yifei was about to explode in anger, Nanfeng and Yumo, who had been chatting and eating intermittently, finally resumed their conversation.

"Sigh, Yifei has always been like this since she was little. On the surface, she is stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat. No matter what, she always pretends to be confident. In fact, she is very fragile inside."

Yu Mo's voice was full of sorrow: "I still remember when she was a child, she confessed to a boy, but he said he always thought Yi Fei was a boy and always considered her his best brother."

"Yifei didn't say anything on the surface, as if nothing had happened. But after school, I looked for her for a long time before I finally found her hiding in a corner, secretly crying."

Nanfeng just smiled faintly: "She has always been the one who is least willing to bow her head. She was like that when she was learning martial arts from my grandfather when she was a child."

"While I was in a horse stance listening to my old man's barrage of scolding, I looked up at the sky to stop the tears from falling."

Even if you practice until your legs are weak, you should still hold your head high and say that one day you will beat all the senior brothers in front of you to a pulp.

Nanfeng said calmly, "Actually, I have always advised Aunt Yuan not to be too anxious, because no matter how fierce or strong Yifei is, she has never lacked the ability and motivation to move towards a better life."

In Yifei's own words: "A badass life needs no explanation."

Yu Mo pursed her lips and sighed, "But as her best friend, I hope that no matter how tough her life is, she can always have a shoulder to lean on, even if it's just a small one."

"Don't worry, she will." Nanfeng said confidently, "Those who move towards a bright future will surely meet their fellow travelers along the way."

Yifei snorted inwardly, and the anger on her face visibly subsided.

She was certainly angry that the two of them were talking about her behind her back, but what angered her even more was that these two bastards were making fun of her embarrassing moments.

You two are sitting at the same table eating, you can talk about anything and everything, but you have to complain about me to make the conversation more relaxed and lively?

What kind of terrible friends are these!

Although if I were in the shoes of Nanfeng or Yumo, I would most likely have steered the conversation toward our mutual friend.

Even if Hu Yifei is usually quite reasonable, there are always times when she's unreasonable.

Anyone can criticize or talk about me in private, but not the two of you.

No means no!

But when Yifei realized that the two men weren't joking about her embarrassing moments, but were genuinely concerned for her, she wasn't so angry anymore.

You two bastards have some conscience after all, remembering the good things I did for you.

snort!

Yifei's lips curved into a smile, but the next moment she quickly reverted to her angry expression.

"Of course, with Yifei's terrible temper, her future boyfriend will just have to suffer as a human punching bag," Yu Mo said with a smile. "If Yifei could vent all her bad temper and these whimsical ideas on her boyfriend, our lives would be much easier."

That makes sense!

Xiao Xian, Zhan Bo, and the other three nodded in unison upon hearing this.

Yifei glared angrily at the group. If she weren't afraid of being overheard by Nanfeng, she would have slammed her hand on the table and asked these guys what they meant.

Nanfeng then teased, "If that's the case, this man has to be thick-skinned, otherwise he won't be able to withstand the torment of Yifei, this deadly female devil."

"Heh..." Zeng Xiaoxian covered his mouth tightly before he could laugh out loud.

Hu Yifei: ...

I'll just consider my previous thoughts as mere wild imagination. I'd better just humanely destroy Nanfeng and Yumo!

They're two bastards who're making fun of me!!!

"Yes, I think Teacher Zeng is great. He's a good person, his job is good too, and most importantly, given his cheeky personality, the fact that he's managed to live with Yi Fei for so long shows that his tolerance for Yi Fei's cooking and his resilience are both exceptional."

Yu Mo asked expectantly, "I've suspected something's up with them for a while now, Nanfeng. Do you think there's something fishy going on between Teacher Zeng and Yifei?"

Zeng Xiaoxian was no longer able to laugh. He saw Meijia, Wanyu, and Zhanbo, those three busybodies, staring at him in surprise, looking like they couldn't wait to ask.

Zeng Xiaoxian broke out in a cold sweat and quickly shook his head like a rattle drum.

No, I didn't do it. Don't listen to their nonsense.

We didn't come here to hear Nanfeng and Yumo's gossip, so why did the topic turn to ourselves and Hu Yifei?

After all that, while we were gossiping about them, Nanfeng and Yumo weren't idle either.

Why is everyone so gossipy? Is Love Apartment some kind of gossip hotspot?

But you can gossip all you want, but you can't just make up lies and spread rumors about me and Hu Yifei.

Look at Hu Yifei... her looks are alright, her figure... cough cough, her personality...

Yes, look at Hu Yifei's personality, how could any man possibly like her?

Absolutely, absolutely impossible!

Hu Yifei glared at Zeng Xiaoxian with a displeased expression, instantly realizing that she hadn't hit him hard enough.

I haven't even said anything yet, what's with this look of you trying to avoid me like the plague?

Am I really that unworthy of your affection?

Nanfeng answered confidently, "I've long suspected something was going on between those two, but Yifei is incredibly arrogant, and Teacher Zeng is incredibly timid."

"Instead of seeing how things go between these two, we should first look forward to how far Zhanbo and Wanyu can go."

Zhanbo and Wanyu were originally just melon-eating badger in the melon patch, but they never expected that they would turn from badger into melons themselves.

The two shy people blushed instantly. Their eyes subconsciously swept towards each other, but their shy and bewildered gazes quickly darted away after a brief contact.

So embarrassing! So embarrassing!

Wanyu lowered her head shyly.

What did Wanyu mean by the look she gave me just now?

What is she really thinking?

Should I...?

Zhanbo was filled with inner turmoil.

"Zhanbo is not good at socializing, but Yifei is completely clueless about dating and loves to give advice. Every time Zhanbo just starts to like a girl, she wants to arrange their marriage."

Yu Mo sighed, "It's rare that Yi Fei didn't interfere this time. I wonder if Zhan Bo and Wan Yu will be able to stay together in the end."

Nanfeng pointed out incisively, "Their problem right now isn't whether they like each other or whether they're compatible, but that Wanyu hasn't even figured out her future direction yet."

Wan Yu's shy expression gradually changed.

"Wanyu, Meijia, and Curry Sauce are different. The two of them want to settle down in Love Apartment. Meijia wants a peaceful and stable life, while Curry Sauce wants to happily realize her dreams."

"But for Wanyu, Love Apartment is just a stopover for her. She left home for freedom, but she hasn't figured out what she should do or what she wants to do after she gains her freedom."

"There can only be further developments between the two of them once she has figured these things out."

Zhanbo and Wanyu looked up at each other, their eyes shifting from shyness to thoughtfulness.

Yu Mo nodded: "Speaking of Meijia, she and Ziqiao..."

"We broke up a long time ago."

"But why do I feel like Meijia still has feelings for Ziqiao?" Yu Mo asked weakly.

Everyone looked at Mika with satisfaction, saying, "It's your turn now."

Mika pouted helplessly, looking like she had expected it but was still very unhappy.

I know it myself.

Yifei, Xiaoxian, Zhanbo, and Wanyu have all been mentioned by them. Given how impulsive and unpredictable their conversations are, it's only a matter of time before it's their turn.

I'm still so angry.

Seeing that Nanfeng and Yumo were about to continue talking, the group quickly turned off the listening device.

We can't listen to this anymore. If we keep listening, who knows how many other shameful things they have to say that will be heard by others?

The group looked at each other in bewilderment. It was clearly them who had planted the listening device to eavesdrop on Nanfeng and Yumo's gossip.

These two seem perfectly normal, yet somehow their past has been exposed one by one.

As the group gave up eavesdropping, the scene instantly became quite awkward.

Although everyone already knew many of the things Nanfeng and Yumo mentioned, such as the relationship between Zhanbo and Wanyu, the bickering relationship between Yifei and Teacher Zeng, and the love-hate relationship between Meijia and Ziqiao.

But it's fine for everyone to know these things in their hearts, and it's okay to talk about them privately behind the backs of the parties involved.

But this kind of behavior—revealing the truth to the parties involved...

[Peerless Little Diaochan]: Tonight we...

【Feifeifei, the very beautiful giant rabbit】: What's wrong tonight? Didn't we just come out to eat hot pot together?

【Xian Ge is a real man】: Yes, yes, I've been craving this hot pot for so long.

[Tang Monk Loves Pantene Shampoo]: That's right, besides eating hot pot, we know nothing and hear nothing.

The five of them ate hot pot with their own thoughts on their own, and what was originally a sumptuous hot pot meal became tasteless.

Time passed in this awkward atmosphere, so much so that the five people, whose thoughts were in utter confusion, completely failed to notice the surprised looks on Nanfeng and Yumo's faces as they finished their hotpot around the corner.
