Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 92 I'm hungry...

Nanfeng's words were like a sharp blade piercing straight into Zhang Wei's heart. Zhang Wei looked up at the sky and wiped his eyes, which were fogged up by the sandstorm.

Zhang Wei was an orphan who had no one to rely on or love him since childhood. In his eyes, there was nothing happier in the world than being loved.

If someone is willing to love me, I would give them my life, or even my money... I would give it to them.

Zhang Wei always believed that love could overcome all difficulties. He had survived more than 20 years of hardship on his own, so why couldn't he overcome all the difficulties by having someone he liked?

But now Zhang Wei understands that all the storms he's faced before were directed at him alone. As long as he works hard and refuses to give up, nothing can defeat him.

But relationships are not like that. Relationships are about two people weathering storms together. Even if two people are slightly out of sync, they may completely lose each other in the storm.

Love cannot overcome all difficulties, especially since they never loved each other.

Zhang Wei gazed at the rising moon in the night sky, then looked down at his phone: "What am I supposed to do with this 80,000 yuan?"

"You decide this yourself." Nanfeng didn't want to offer any more advice on this sensitive topic; in fact, he had already said quite a lot, considering they were not very close.

Zhang Wei thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth and reached for the screen.

His trembling fingers hovered in mid-air, and he dared not take another step forward for a long time.

"Nanfeng, can you do me a small favor?" Zhang Wei handed over his phone. "I remember there's an 'instant refund' button on WeChat transfers. Could you press it for me? I'm worried my hand will shake and I'll press it by mistake."

Nanfeng chuckled, "Couldn't you just wait for the money to be automatically refunded after 24 hours?"

"How can I let that happen? I can't let her continue to look down on me." Zhang Wei clutched his chest, looking pained. "Besides, this is 80,000 yuan! What if I have a moment of weakness and can't resist taking it in the middle of the night?"

"Look at you, acting like a coward." Nanfeng took the phone and asked one last time to confirm, "Are you sure you don't want this money?"

"No." Although Zhang Wei's greedy nature was written all over his face, his answer was quite firm.

"I wouldn't waste a single penny of money that belongs to me, and even if it's a hundred million that doesn't belong to me, I... I wouldn't take it even if it hurts me to death in the middle of the night."

"A real man keeps his word. If I say I'll pay today, I mean it. If I can't negotiate the price down, it's because I'm incompetent. If I have to borrow money from others, it's because I'm poor."

"But no matter what, I absolutely cannot accept this money."

"That's courageous." Nanfeng quickly pressed the "Refund Now" button. "After the refund, is there anything else I need to say?"

"She transferred 80,000 yuan without saying a word, so why should I return the money and talk to her?"

Nanfeng handed the phone to Zhang Wei: "I've done everything I could for you. In return, shouldn't you do me a favor?"

"We agreed beforehand that if there's anything you need, just tell me, and I'll do whatever I can."

"It's nothing serious, I just want you to help me mess with one of my friends."

Kind-hearted Zhang Wei hesitated, "This...this isn't quite right."

Honest people like myself are really not good at this kind of thing.

Nanfeng said calmly, "This guy is a scumbag. He's cheated on countless young girls. Just now, he was flirting with girls at the cat cafe, looking all smug about it."

Zhang Wei: "???"

"Go all out! Go all out!" Zhang Wei said indignantly. "You've come to the right person. I'm good at messing with people. We have to strike hard against this kind of scumbag."

Why is it that you, a scumbag, are so lucky in love, while I, an honest guy, am unlucky in love?

If you continue to be so smug, how will we honest people possibly get away with this?!

In his inner world, Zhang Wei sharpened his knife, a sinister laugh echoing through the air.

Nanfeng gave Zhang Wei a thumbs up: "Very good, very energetic."

"What do you think we should do?"

"No rush, we'll talk about it on the way."

Nanfeng released the handbrake and stepped on the gas, driving towards the converging traffic on the road.

……

"The kitten is so cute, come here and let your big sister give it a kiss."

Inside the cat cafe, Curry held the Siamese cat in her arms, completely enamored with it.

Yu Mo, who was standing to the side, stroked the little girl eating cat food on the table and teased Curry Sauce with a smile: "If you really like this cat that much, why don't you save up and buy it later?"

Curry resolutely shook her head: "No way! Cat poop smells too bad, and I'm too lazy to scoop it. Buying one would just be asking for trouble."

Yu Mo looked at Curry Sauce with a surprised expression: "I remember you were quite impulsive when you bought things. Last night when you were watching a movie, you accidentally opened Taobao and almost went bankrupt."

"Why have you suddenly become such a rational person today?"

"It's different. Buying dead things is an impulse purchase, since it's a one-time transaction anyway," Curry Sauce replied while eating the snacks on the table. "But buying a pet is like choosing a man. If you're lucky, it'll stay with you for life; if you're unlucky, it'll stay with you for life."

"But regardless of whether we're lucky or not, our initial goal is to make it last a lifetime, so we can't be careless."

"Buying a pet is like choosing a man..." Yu Mo said thoughtfully.

She suddenly asked Curry Sauce, "Curry, if you could choose a man, what kind would you choose?"

Curry nearly choked, staring at Yu Mo in disbelief: "You actually asked me something like that?"

"That's right, you're a minor." Yu Mo felt like she must have been out of her mind to ask a minor for answers.

No, I mean...

"Finally, someone asked me this question."

Curry Sauce was very happy: "Living in Love Apartment is great in every way, except that everyone always treats me like a child, as if I shouldn't know this or get involved in that."

"When Sister Yifei and Sister Meijia talk about adult topics, they always tell me not to listen, for fear that they will lead me astray."

"Come on, it's 2014 already. What don't kids these days know? The topics they were discussing would have been nothing more than an appetizer when I was living in the dorms in high school."

"My roommate went through three to five boyfriends during her three years of high school."

Listening to Curry Sauce's complaints, Yu Mo gently patted her little hand: "Everyone is doing this for your own good. We all know that young people these days are more precocious, but we can't intentionally lead you astray, can we?"

"Sister Yu Mo, I know, everyone is very kind to me."

"Everyone treats me like a child, but I don't want to be a child that everyone worries about and takes care of all day long."

"I want to be everyone's friend, a big friend who can be relied upon and trusted."

Curry Sauce looked on with anticipation. Everyone had helped her so much over the past three months, while she felt that all she could do was run errands and do housework, and she couldn't help anyone with anything.

She also wants to become a reliable adult like Teacher Nanfeng, Sister Yifei, and Teacher Zeng.

Often, what people perceive as childish discontent is simply a desire to build an equal relationship with everyone.

Even if they are the beneficiaries of this unequal relationship.

Yu Mo patted Curry Sauce's head, looking pleased: "Being able to say something like that means you've grown up."

Children only think about taking; when you grow up, you have to learn to give.

Only by mastering the balance between taking and giving can one truly become a qualified adult.

"Sister Yu Mo, you're the best." Curry Sauce's affection for Yu Mo skyrocketed after receiving the recognition. She said with longing, "I just want to grow up quickly so I can drink freely and have a quiet chat with Sister Mei Jia and the others at night to share some little secrets between girls."

"Of course, the most important thing is that I can have a super, super romantic relationship without any restraint."

She continued, following up on the question Yu Mo had asked her earlier: "If I were to choose a man, I would choose a tall, handsome guy with a smile that could charm anyone."

"Hahaha……"

Curry laughed like a lovesick fool.

Yu Mo laughed too: "Why do you only care about looks? Does that mean that as long as someone is handsome, nothing else matters to you?"

"It's not that it's unimportant, but at least the other person can't have fundamental problems like cheating, gambling, domestic violence, or drug use. As for other things... as long as they're handsome enough, none of these are problems."

Upon hearing Curry Sauce's criteria for choosing a partner, Yu Mo frowned, thinking that Curry Sauce's distorted view of choosing a partner needed to be corrected.

Otherwise, she'll suffer a great loss if she waits until she comes of age.

"Curry, it's wrong for you to approach dating with these standards. You need to thoroughly understand everything about the person before you can judge whether you like them or whether they are a suitable romantic partner."

Just like I am now.

"This is such a hassle." Curry Sauce ate her snacks and petted the cat, her eyes revealing a clear sense of foolishness.

"And why should I know everything about him to determine whether I like him or not?"

"If I like him, my heart will pound just when he stands there and smiles at me."

Yu Mo was taken aback, and then stammered, "But this feeling of attraction might just be an illusion. You don't really know him. Once you get to know him better, you'll find that he's not the person you imagined."

Curry Sauce frowned and pondered as he chewed his food: "You mean... his handsome face is fake?"

"No," Yu Mo said, breaking down, "I mean his other personality traits might not completely satisfy you."

"You scared me to death! I thought you were going to say his handsome face was fake." Curry Sauce breathed a sigh of relief. "It's okay then. As long as his behavior and personality don't have the fundamental issues I mentioned earlier, I'm fine with everything else."

Yu Mo frowned: "I don't understand, you can ignore all other issues just because of one thing that makes your heart flutter?"

"Of course, because that's the only thing that makes my heart flutter. No matter how good or perfect everything else is, what good is it if I'm not attracted?"

Yu Mo was startled.

These days, and even for the past year or so, the dark clouds that have shrouded my heart seem to have finally let in a ray of light.

"Besides, I myself can't completely satisfy anyone, so why should I look for a perfect lover who can completely satisfy me?"

"Besides, we only meet so few people in our lifetime. If a perfect lover who completely meets your requirements really comes along, that would be too terrifying."

Curry Sauce pointed to the top of her head: "Rather than believing that there are any perfect lovers in this world, I'd rather believe that it's just a scumbag like Brother Ziqiao who has nothing better to do than fool a little girl like me."

Seeing that Yu Mo was still lost in thought, Curry Sauce assumed she hadn't understood and casually used her most familiar food as an example.

"Choosing a man is like choosing my favorite dish. What makes me interested is what I like, and those fundamental issues are what I hate the most, like houttuynia cordata."

"Even if I like a dish a lot, I won't touch it if it has even a tiny bit of houttuynia cordata on it, no matter how much it suits my taste."

"But as long as a dish suits my taste, it is my dish."

"I don't care whether it's salt and pepper chicken or braised duck, whether the chicken is free-range or penned, or whether the duck was chopped or electrocuted. I can accept any of that."

Even if the dish is too salty or too spicy, I can drink water if it's too salty, and rinse it in water if it's too spicy.

"Either I change, or it changes. As long as I like to eat it and am willing to continue eating it, none of these little problems will matter."

"Because what I love to eat is priceless."

Curry Sauce looked at Yu Mo, who was still in a daze and looked dejected, and wondered to herself: There shouldn't be anything I couldn't understand, right?

Or was it that Sister Yu Mo was angered by her own twisted logic and fallacies?

"Sister Yumo, I was just talking nonsense. If you don't like it, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"No, Curry, you're absolutely right." Yu Mo smiled faintly. "I just figured some things out."

Just like Curry Sauce said, as long as I like him, as long as he doesn't have those absolutely intolerable fundamental issues.

Whether it's salt and pepper chicken or braised duck, it's my dish.

Even if it's not now, once it's in my stomach, it's mine.

Yu Mo looked out the window and saw Nan Feng and Zhang Wei walking past.

"Teacher Nanfeng!" Curry Sauce waved happily to Nanfeng.

Yu Mo watched quietly as Nan Feng tilted his head, made a face at Curry Sauce, and then burst into laughter while clutching his stomach, much to Curry Sauce's astonishment.

She licked her lips, wondering why, after what the curry sauce said...

I'm a little hungry now.

Here it comes!

I tried my best to make everyone's dialogue fit their character, but I don't know if it actually worked.
