I have a lot of dating skills.

"Are you really planning to let me go back with you?" Xin Yu asked her in surprise as they walked out.

Zhao Fei's brows furrowed unusually, and she asked him in return, "What are you thinking?"

"That goes without saying..." The next second, Xin Yu took her hand. Zhao Fei felt a reassuring sensation from his palm and couldn't help but squeeze his hand back. She heard him say, "Leave it to me."

She turned to look at him, a smile appearing on her lips.

Upon arriving at her doorstep, Zhao Fei suddenly felt a little nervous. She was wondering how Xin Yu would handle the situation, and also how Zhao Weijing would react once she found out about her relationship with Xin Yu.

Turning to look at Xin Yu, he took a deep breath, as if forcing himself to calm down, walked over, opened the door, and went in first.

Consort Zhao was taken aback for a moment, then followed her inside.

The scene inside the room made them widen their eyes: snack bags scattered everywhere, a dining table full of leftover food, and the beautiful figures of young girls, their bodies clad only in underwear exuding a youthful aura.

Zhao Weijing, Huo Yingxi, and Bei Jiamin sat around on the ground, each holding a deck of cards, seemingly playing some kind of risqué game.

Huo Yingxi remained calm, Zhao Weijing blushed slightly, Bei Jiamin was filled with shame and indignation, and her face was full of regret.

Hearing the door open, the three of them turned around at the same time. They were stunned when they saw them, and then Zhao Weijing stood up with a flushed face like a child caught doing something wrong, and asked in a flustered voice, "Why are you back?"

Bei Jiamin grabbed the clothes next to her and put them on, her face full of embarrassment.

Only Huo Yingxi showed joy on her face. She was about to greet her master when she noticed Zhao Fei standing with her master and seemed to understand something.

Looking at the messy house and seeing Zhao Weijing's evasive eyes, Zhao Fei was furious. She stared at Zhao Weijing and asked, "I told you to study properly at home, and this is how you study?"

Her tone carried a hint of disappointment, a reaction stemming from years of consistent parenting habits.

"We're having study sessions, and we only play around when we're tired," Zhao Wei explained weakly, looking at Xin Yu with pleading eyes.

Xin Yu was speechless. Faced with being scolded by Zhao Fei, Zhao Weijing actually wanted him to plead for her. Was his girlfriend planning to make him sell his body?

Having already resolved to resolve the messy relationship between the three, Xin Yu didn't want Zhao Fei and Zhao Weijing to have a falling out as soon as he returned, so he said, "It's summer vacation, so it's fine to have some fun, as long as you don't fall behind in your studies."

"I've been studying hard, you can check if you don't believe me." Zhao Weijing quickly picked up the homework and exercise books that had been lying aside and went over to show Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei glanced at Xin Yu, her expression softening. After checking the homework, she nodded and said, "The homework is well done, but you should put your clothes on first."

Zhao Weijing then realized she wasn't dressed, blushed, and ran back. Meanwhile, Bei Jiamin and Huo Yingxi were already dressed. As she dressed, she mouthed to them, "You're disloyal."

Huo Yingxi ignored her, her bright eyes darting back and forth between Zhao Fei and Xin Yu as if she had discovered some new and interesting toys, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Xin Yu winked at her, indicating that she was right, and Huo Yingxi smiled even more happily.

Zhao Fei felt flustered and confused under Huo Yingxi's scrutiny. She also thought about her relationship with Huo Yingxi and Huo Yingxi's relationship with Zhao Weijing, and her head started to ache.

Does Xiao Jing know about Huo Yingxi's relationship with Xin Yu?

"What are you doing?" Xin Yu asked curiously.

Zhao Weijing scratched her cheek and said shyly, "It's too boring to be alone, so I invited them over to play together... After studying, I was tired of studying, so I planned to play games to relax."

They're probably playing a card game where the loser has to take off their clothes.

Xin Yu thought to himself, and said to everyone, "The house is so dirty, let's clean it up together."

"No need, I'll find someone to clean up." Zhao Fei finished speaking and stared at Huo Yingxi: "You..."

Huo Yingxi spoke first: "We bought a lot of groceries and planned to have a get-together tonight. Now that you're back, let's all have dinner together tonight."

Zhao Fei swallowed back what she was about to say. She always felt a little guilty in front of Huo Yingxi, afraid that the other party would expose her relationship with Xin Yu. She wasn't fully prepared mentally.

After a moment's thought, Consort Zhao said, "In that case, everyone go upstairs first, and I'll have someone come and clean up."

She went outside to make a phone call.

The four of them looked at each other inside the house.

"Xin Yu, why did you come back with her?" Zhao Weijing asked curiously.

Xin Yu honestly said, "I met her in Shanghai and then flew back with her."

Zhao Weijing paused for a moment after hearing this, as if she had misunderstood something. Her expression was a little conflicted, and she looked at him with a hint of apology. She moved her lips as if she wanted to say something.

Xin Yu smiled and said, "Let's go upstairs and talk."

Zhao Wei nodded silently.

The group went up to the second floor, and Huo Yingxi grabbed the host's hand and said, "Wei Jing, can I borrow your room for a moment? I have something to talk to the host."

"Don't talk about sex!" Zhao Weijing simply warned.

After the two entered the room, Bei Jiamin stared blankly at the door. Zhao Weijing, seeing this, said with some dissatisfaction, "You don't mean to want to go in too, do you?"

Bei Jiamin blushed instantly to the roots of her ears and snorted, "It's you who wants to go in."

She tossed her ponytail and went into the guest room. She and Huo Yingxi had been staying at Zhao Weijing's house for the past few days, keeping Zhao Weijing company.

Inside the room, the little maid stared at her master with bright, sparkling eyes, and asked, "Master, Yingxi is very curious about the extent of your relationship with Consort Zhao and Zhao Weijing."

For Xin Yu, Huo Yingxi was the most trustworthy person, and there was no need to hide anything from her, so he explained his current relationship with the two women from the Zhao family.

Huo Yingxi's eyes lit up even more. "So, they all knew about each other's ambiguous relationship with the master?"

After thinking for a moment, Xin Yu nodded: "That's right, but Wei Jing doesn't know about my relationship with Zhao Fei."

“But Wei Jing doesn’t object to the master’s ambiguous relationship with Consort Zhao,” Huo Yingxi added.

"That's because Consort Zhao is very authoritative in her eyes, and Wei Jing also hopes that I can change Consort Zhao's dislike of men."

"Anyway, this is a good start, Master. No matter what you do, Yingxi will always support you."

Huo Yingxi stared intently at her owner, spoke solemnly, and then went over to give him a hug to encourage him.

Xin Yu held her close, feeling more at ease.

The two came out of the room, and Zhao Weijing, who was guarding outside the door, looked them over with a scrutinizing gaze. Satisfied that they hadn't done anything wrong, she went forward and led Xin Yu into the room.

Having not seen each other for so long, she wanted to chat with Xin Yu and missed his embrace.

And there's something she wants to ask.

Regarding the incident of Zhao Fei and Xin Yu's chance encounter in Shanghai.

After closing the door, the two naturally embraced and sat on the bed. Zhao Weijing cupped Xin Yu's face, kissing him once and then again, as if she couldn't get enough of kissing him.

As they kissed, she became a little breathless.

Xin Yu patted her, "If we keep waiting any longer, I won't be able to take it anymore."

Zhao Weijing pouted and muttered softly, "If I couldn't stand it, I would have pounced on you already. We haven't seen each other for almost ten days."

She seemed to be doubting something.

"Because I still have hands," Xin Yu said with a smile.

"Pfft." Zhao Weijing couldn't help but laugh out loud. After laughing for a while, she stopped laughing and wanted to ask a serious question, but she hesitated.

Xin Yu said, "I met her in Shanghai a week ago. Her parents were there too, and they mistook me for her boyfriend. They seemed quite satisfied with me."

Zhao Weijing felt like she'd been struck by lightning and asked in shock, "You met her parents?"

“It’s a misunderstanding,” Xin Yu emphasized.

"They're still very satisfied with you?" Zhao Weijing was speechless.

"Think about it, how many years has Consort Zhao been pressured to get married? How could she not be satisfied with a young, handsome, gentle, and considerate man?" Xin Yu said earnestly.

Zhao Wei stared at him blankly for a long time before weakly asking, "Then what should I do?"

"I already said it was a misunderstanding, what are you thinking?"

Xin Yu couldn't help but glare at her.

Zhao Weijing looked puzzled, but after hearing Xin Yu's words, she breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was a misunderstanding, she figured it would be fine to explain it away.

But then she immediately thought that her nominal grandparents had met Xin Yu and mistakenly thought he was Zhao Fei's boyfriend. Wouldn't it be very awkward when they met at the wedding banquet when she married Xin Yu in the future?

Xin Yu seemed to be thinking about something, and after a long struggle, he finally made up his mind, looked at her, and said through gritted teeth.

"Actually, what I wanted to tell you wasn't this, but rather what happened between me and Zhao Fei this week."

Zhao Wei's heart tightened, and she quickly asked, "What happened?"

Her boyfriend's serious tone gave her a bad feeling. She knew about Zhao Fei's abnormality, and she didn't believe that Zhao Weijing was very restrained when she met Xin Yu in an unfamiliar city.

Did the two of them... sleep together?

"I might... be getting used to being treated like that by her."

Xin Yu looked at her and said.

Chapter 171 I raised you all these years, is it alright for you to borrow a man for a while? (Part 2)

"I might... be getting used to being treated like that by her."

Xin Yu looked at his girlfriend and said this in a tentative tone.

Zhao Weijing tightened her grip on his arm and stared at him blankly. Contrary to Xin Yu's expectations, her face did not show sadness, but rather a more complex emotion, including surprise, regret, confusion, and guilt.

She lowered her head, her expression complicated, and said sadly, "It's my fault. If I had been more assertive from the beginning, this wouldn't have happened."

Xin Yu was taken aback and asked, "You're not angry?"

"You're angry, but you're angry at yourself. I allowed you to contact her; I didn't keep a close eye on you."

Zhao Weijing pouted, her tone filled with deep self-reproach.

"No, even if you allowed it, it's because I wasn't firm enough. If I could..."

"Xin Yu, do you remember how we got together?"

Before Xin Yu could finish speaking, the girl interrupted him and asked him softly.

Xin Yu nodded. Of course he remembered. At first, he didn't understand anything, but the girl took the initiative to cling to him and showed him great enthusiasm.

The girl's advances initially made him wary. He thought she was a promiscuous person or had some ulterior motive in approaching him, and he was reluctant to have any contact with her until he eventually let go of his prejudices.

"Yes, it was my initiative."

The girl voiced Xin Yu's thoughts, then asked him, "So, what's the difference between what Consort Zhao is doing now and what I was doing back then?"

Xin Yu seemed stunned for a moment before replying, "I was single back then, but now you're my girlfriend."

"That is indeed the difference."
