So all the wives were waiting for me to break up with them.

Sun Qing hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but explain in a very low voice, "Miss, you've never been involved in anything, and your reputation in the group is terrible. It's normal that no one believes you can lead us out of this turmoil."

At this moment, Yun Mingyue, whose composure was not yet fully developed, visibly froze. She took a deep breath, suppressed the complex emotions in her heart, and turned to look at the door of the conference room.

Why aren't you leaving?

"Hmm." Sun Qing shrugged. "I finally found a good job in Hangzhou. I want to earn a few more months' salary and also gain some seniority. Anyway, even if the Yun Group is going to collapse, it shouldn't be that fast."

"..."

Yun Mingyue was stunned by Sun Qing's extremely realistic remarks. Having grown up in a wealthy and privileged family, she had no idea what ordinary people thought.

She looked at Sun Qing, not quite understanding, yet seemingly lost in thought.

“Miss…Chairman, we should go in now,” Sun Qing reminded him.

"Chairman?"

Yun Mingyue was in a daze. Indeed, she now held 26% of the shares in the Yun Group, instantly becoming a super-rich woman who was highly sought after in high society circles.

I wonder how many people will do countless dirty things, openly or secretly, just to possess her and conquer her.

Who knows how many 'jackals' are lurking around her, wanting to tear her to shreds.

……

As Yun Mingyue pondered, the confusion in her eyes gradually faded. She forced herself to put on a cold face, and her voice became exceptionally clear and icy, "The documents are all prepared."

Whether she wants to or not, she will have to shut herself in her shell from now on, refusing to let anyone understand her, until one day she has enough confidence and is willing to step out on her own.

Sun Qing was startled by the coldness in her voice, her body jolted, and then she hugged the documents in front of her chest tightly and nodded heavily.

"Then you... by the way, what's your name?"

"Chairman, my name is Sun Qing."

"Sun Qing? I'll remember that. From now on, you'll be my personal secretary."

The meeting room door was pushed open, and the two walked in one after the other. A group of board members with ill intentions were waiting for the two young women.

……

“You see, these are things that are easy to handle.” Yun Mingyue affectionately hooked her arm around Zhou You’s.

"Is it really that easy to handle?" Even though Zhou You had only heard the beginning, he could imagine that Yun Mingyue must have gone through a lot of bloody struggles afterward.

“Yes, I solved it very easily back then.” Yun Mingyue pulled him outside.

Sun Qing, who was left behind, had no intention of following along to be a third wheel.

She simply touched her chin. The chairman must have... No one is born strong; everyone has moments of weakness.

Sun Qing shook her head, trying to stop thinking about these random things.

As she walked out, the night breeze carried the sound of their final conversation.

"I never expected that Sister Hua has always been such an amazing person."

"You're amazing too, the little brother who made your sister less capable again." You're the one who reopened her heart.

"again?"

You misheard me!

237. Degenerate behavior

At the evening gathering, Ning Moxin and Chen Tangtang didn't hold Yun Mingyue and Zhou You's lateness against them. They didn't even ask Zhou You why he hadn't answered the phone earlier.

After finishing their meal, the group strolled around the streets, seemingly cuddling each other.

They would change clothes like little girls to show off to their crushes, leaving the female sales assistants nearby stunned, wondering which of the three was Zhou You's girlfriend.

Out of curiosity, I would buy some newly emerging street food, and if I didn't like it, I would give it to Zhou You to solve for me.

It was no different from usual, just very ordinary.

But I was really happy.

The past few days have been peaceful; it's now Thursday afternoon around 3 p.m.

Zhou You walked past a banner at the school gate without paying attention to the words on it, and hurried to the classroom.

The female psychology students didn't gather in small groups as usual; instead, they sat two seats apart on either side of each other, arranged according to their student ID numbers.

The psychology department is having a quiz today.

He glanced at the somewhat aged male teacher who was organizing exam papers on the podium and Ning Moxin who was writing the exam time on the blackboard with chalk, and walked straight to the front row of the classroom.

As the only male student in the psychology department, his student ID number was naturally the first one.

"Class, let's begin the exam." The male teacher took the stack of test papers and walked down from the podium, rubbing his fingers along the edge of the papers to grab a pile and place it in the first row.

He quickly finished distributing the test papers and returned to the podium.

Normally he would do some chores or look up at the students, but this time his gaze involuntarily drifted towards Ning Moxin.

He still vividly remembers the amazement he felt when he first saw Ning Moxin ten years ago. Now, ten years have passed, he has grown old, but Ning Moxin has remained completely unchanged...

Actually, it's not that there's no difference; with time, she has become like fine wine, exuding an increasingly mellow and refreshing charm.

He went from initially being excited and wanting to pursue it, to giving up completely when he realized the hope was slim, and now he sees it as a ray of moonlight in his life, the kind of thing where when night falls, you reach out to the sky, feeling that it is within reach, but in reality it is just a dream that is unattainable.

And he's definitely not the only one at Z University who thinks like this.

In a sense, Teacher Ning is truly a 'deeply sinful' woman.

The male teacher was stealing glances at Ning Moxin, while she stood quietly on the edge of the steps next to the podium, her gaze sweeping gently over the students, but always lingering the longest on the only male student.

"Teacher." Zhou You, who was sitting in the front row, raised his hand.

"Has Zhou finished writing?"

Ning Moxin walked over to Zhou You, who was sitting down, and calmly advised him, "There's still some time before the exam ends, so check your work carefully one more time before handing in your paper."

"Teacher Ning, I need to go to the restroom," Zhou You explained.

"Go quickly and come back quickly." Ning Moxin naturally wouldn't stop him from making such a normal request.

After Zhou You jogged out of the classroom, Ning Moxin looked down and flipped through the test paper he had already finished. Teacher Ning was still very concerned about Zhou's academic performance.

If his grades drop, she can invite Zhou to her home under the guise of 'after-school tutoring'.

As for why Teacher Ning took Zhou home for tutoring, well, studying is such a mentally taxing and tiring thing, so when he gets tired, he can just rest at her house.

They're not strangers anymore.

During the day, teachers tutor students at their desks, and at night, teachers can also tutor students.

He was taught how to grasp one central theme and two basic points, stimulate consumption and expand domestic demand, and let all sources of wealth creation flow freely—these were the kinds of "normal" things he was taught.

Some strange thoughts welled up in Ning Moxin's heart. She lost interest in looking at Zhou You's test paper. She glanced at the door and saw that he had not returned yet. A thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.

She walked to the podium, smiled politely at the male teacher, and asked, "Could you please watch the exam room by yourself for a while?"

"Of course." The male teacher nodded eagerly; he was naturally willing to help his 'white moonlight' (idealized female friend).

Fortunately, he didn't know what his "white moonlight" was thinking, otherwise his worldview might have been shattered.

After receiving a positive reply from the male teacher, Ning Moxin slowly walked out of the classroom. At this time, the corridor was empty and there was no one there.

She looked around, took a few steps toward the restroom, and before she had gone far from the classroom, she ran into Zhou You, who was walking briskly toward her.

"Zhou, classmate."

"Teacher Ning?" Zhou You, who was rushing along with his head down, looked up.

“I’d like to take up a little of your time to talk to you about my ‘request’.” Ning Moxin moved closer to him, her eyes appearing deeper than usual, perhaps due to the angle.

"A 'request'?" Zhou You immediately recalled what happened a few days ago. "I still can't quite accept it..."

"So, Zhou is refusing to pay tuition to Teacher Ning? He doesn't want Teacher Ning to continue helping him?"

“But I really can’t do anything…” Zhou You planned to try to persuade Ning Moxin. Although he had recently come up with a 'small plan', Ning Moxin’s help was still very important.

"Alright, I don't want to make things too difficult for Zhou. Just give me a kiss now, and I'll consider it payment of your tuition." Ning Moxin suddenly changed her tone and lowered her demands.

Upon hearing her words, Zhou You subconsciously glanced towards the classroom and could clearly see the students who were writing their test papers with their heads down.

Does he want a kiss?

While his classmates were taking the exam seriously in the solemn examination hall, he secretly tutored them from outside, becoming a teacher they deeply respected and loved.

Why would someone engage in such depraved behavior, so different from the solemnity of an examination?

Is this really appropriate?

Ning Moxin had already closed her eyes, her long, thick eyelashes trembling slightly, her pink lips slightly raised, and her pretty face flushed with an alluring blush.

That is indeed a depraved act.

But this thrill, this feeling of sliding into the abyss... is still intimate with Xiaoyou.

The two joys combined created an even bigger wave.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry," she urged in a trembling voice.

"I... it was just a kiss anyway." Zhou You took a deep breath, trying to reassure himself.

“Yeah, anyway, it’s just a kiss.” Ning Moxin opened her tightly closed eyes a crack, and only a dark color remained in her usually bright eyes.

“Indeed.” Zhou You swallowed, no longer hesitating, lowered his head, and gently kissed Ning Moxin’s lips.

Ding-a-ling~~ Ding-a-ling~~

The bell rang suddenly, signaling the end of the exam.

"!!!" Zhou You panicked and tried to raise his head.

As if she had been prepared, Ning Moxin hugged him and pressed the unsuspecting boy against the wall next to her.

The two leaned against the wall. She heard the male teacher say, "You can only leave the exam room after I've collected all the papers." Judging by how fast he collected the papers, she wondered when the students would leave the exam room—maybe in the next second?

She was extremely anxious, yet she was reluctant to part with him and had no intention of leaving him.

I am extremely greedy for it.
