Lu Chen returned home and had just finished showering when Gu Nanyin called.

"Were you at Sister Ping's place last night?"

"Yes, that's right."

Lu Chen replied, "I've also taken care of the matter in the western suburbs."

Gu Nanyin's voice was a little softer on the other end of the phone: "Honey, Sister Ping just called me and told me about this. She also asked me if I wanted you to go and keep her company for a while."

Lu Chen asked curiously, "So what did you say?"

Gu Nanyin replied, "Of course I rejected her. You're my husband, not some object that I can just move around with."

Lu Chen didn't think much of what those words meant; he felt he had already gained too much from these women.

Moreover, before he met Gu Nanyin, he often hung out with some pretty girls. Those girls spent money on him, invited him out for photos and meals, and tried to date him. They were attracted to his good looks, and he was the same way.

Therefore, Lu Chen had long understood that interactions between people were ultimately nothing more than exchanges of interests.

"husband."

Gu Nanyin then said, "You must not have any of those messy thoughts."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, wife. Why would I bother with myself? Besides, Sister Wei Ping is a good woman. I had a very pleasant conversation with her."

One night of communication not only allowed him to curry favor with a powerful figure but also won the approval of a beautiful woman. Anyone would be eager to do the same.

After chatting with Gu Nanyin for a while, the latter had to go to a morning meeting, so he hung up the phone.

With nothing to do, Lu Chen changed into some loose-fitting clothes, grabbed his phone, and went downstairs.

He wasn't sleepy yet and was planning to have breakfast at a nearby teahouse, and also buy an iced Americano.

Then, after enduring until the afternoon, I lay down on the bed, and in two words, it felt so comfortable!

After having breakfast and buying an iced Americano, Lu Chen sat down on a chair outside to rest.

It was nine o'clock in the morning, and the sun was about to unleash its heat at an extraordinary rate. Pedestrians hurried along the streets, and cars streamed incessantly.

Lu Chen was scrolling through game posts. It was an MMO game he often played, and there was always new gossip to hear every day.

"Lu Chen? What are you doing here?"

Just as Lu Chen was gossiping about a scumbag who was cheating on more than a dozen women, a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

Lu Chen looked up and saw Zheng Yongna standing with one man and two women.

She was wearing a white tracksuit and a baseball cap.

Upon seeing Lu Chen, her eyes were filled with surprise.

The other two girls were also staring at him, their eyes practically glued to him.

As for the man, Lu Chen ignored him completely because he looked very ordinary.

"Hi, what a coincidence."

Lu Chen shook the iced Americano in his hand, unsure of what to say, so he simply greeted them.

Zheng Yongna was very happy and went straight to Lu Chen, pulling out a chair and sitting down.

"Lu Chen! I really didn't expect to run into you by such a coincidence! It's true what they say, fate is predetermined, and we will meet when the time is right."

Lu Chen opened his mouth, then smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Uh, that's quite a coincidence."

Then, he heard Zheng Yongna's inner thoughts.

I've been searching for you so desperately! I've finally seen you! No way! My plans have changed; I'm skipping my workout, I want to go on a date with you!

Hearing this, Lu Chen thought to himself, "What a person with such a weak will..."

But please don't ask me out, I'm going to bed soon.

Zheng Yongna asked with a smile, "What are you doing here? You seem so relaxed, you must have nothing better to do?"

"Something happened."

Lu Chen replied, "I played games all night last night, I'm going to sleep now."

Zheng Yongna said with a resentful look, "Playing games counts too..."

At this moment, one of the two girls next to them, who had a generous appearance and a bit of a Northeastern accent, spoke up: "What are you drinking, Nana? It's obvious that she's not interested in you, okay? Who stays up all night and is still drinking coffee here?"

Lu Chen put down his coffee and was about to explain when he heard Zheng Yongna say with a resentful look, "Really? Lu Chen, you really look down on me that much? Am I that ugly?"

Lu Chen shook his head: "No, that's not it. I'm really going to sleep later. How can I have time if I'm asleep? Don't you think so?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Zheng Yongna also felt that it made some sense.

"then you……"

She had barely uttered two words when another girl spoke up: "Nana, let's go. This handsome guy clearly doesn't like you. Don't make a fool of yourself."

As he spoke, he even pulled Zheng Yongna along.

Lu Chen listened to the conversation and chuckled. It turned out that these two girls were jealous of Zheng Yongna and were now trying to sabotage her!

He said he meant well for Jung Yong-na, but he actually had other thoughts in his heart.

However, he didn't make a fuss, just wanting to see how Zheng Yongna would handle it, and whether her approach was wise.

"You two stop arguing. The three of you go first. I'll ask for leave later. Just say I have something to do."

Upon hearing this...

The two girls exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing a hint of resentment and jealousy.

Then they just exchanged a few perfunctory words. As for the boy, nobody paid any attention to him, and it was unclear whether he was with Zheng Yongna.

After the three people accompanying her left, Zheng Yongna relaxed a lot.

She moved closer to Lu Chen and said, "Wherever you go today, I'll go. Don't even think about getting rid of me."

Lu Chen was speechless and could only answer seriously, "I really will go to sleep later."

Zheng Yongna refused: "Fine, I'll go back to sleep with you. I'm going to stick to you all day anyway."

Lu Chen had no choice but to say, "Actually, I don't have a home..."

Just kidding, this tells Jung Yong-na that her home is up there, so she'll probably be coming over every day.

However, Zheng Yongna didn't buy it at all and said directly, "You don't have a home, but I do. Let's go to my home."

As she spoke, she tried to pull Lu Chen away.

Lu Chen certainly wouldn't get up...

"Stop it, if your parents find out, they'll break my legs."

"Hehe." Zheng Yongna laughed: "This is my own home, there's no one else here. You miscalculated."

"Anyway, I've already said, wherever you go, I'll go."

Lu Chen said, "I'll sleep on the street."

Zheng Yongna followed suit, saying, "Then I'll sleep too."

Lu Chen remained silent and simply looked at her, while Zheng Yongna returned his gaze.

After a while.

Lu Chen shrugged: "Fine, it doesn't matter where I sleep, I'll just go to your place."

"sure."

Zheng Yongna was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Let's go to my house, I'll treat you to a good meal."

Ten minutes later.

In a large, single-level apartment in an upscale residential community.

Lu Chen looked at the vast space before him and fell into deep thought.

Zheng Yongna's room was a mess, with clothes and boxes scattered on the floor and several pairs of stockings hanging on the sofa.

"With your living conditions... even giving you a villa wouldn't be a waste!"

Zheng Yongna was a little embarrassed: "I already said I live alone. If you live with me, I'll be more diligent."

Chapter 97 This is my home

Lu Chen didn't dare to say another word; Zheng Yongna was subtly hinting at something to him.

The previous sentence was even more explicit.

So Lu Chen chose not to respond and found an empty spot on the sofa to sit down.

Zheng Yongna leaned closer, her earlier excitement replaced by unease.

"Um... do you want to eat breakfast?"

Lu Chen turned to look at her and said, "Not bad, you can even cook."

It's quite disjointed.

The room is such a mess, and I can still cook.

But the next second, Lu Chen realized he was overthinking it.

Zheng Yongna took out her phone and said shyly, "I don't know how to use it, but I know how to order takeout."

"Cut~"

Lu Chen was speechless: "I thought you... Never mind, I want to eat xiaolongbao."

"Okay! I'll order some for you!"

Hearing that Lu Chen had made a request of her, Zheng Yongna was very happy and placed an order directly on her phone.

Lu Chen looked at her in surprise…

Hehe, if they ask me for something, it means they're interested in me. If they're interested, then this deal is done! Hehe!

So that's what she thought... Lu Chen thought to himself, this woman's thought process is truly unique...

Does eating the breakfast you bought mean I'm interested in you and want to develop a relationship with you?

You're insane...

Lu Chen thought to himself, but didn't say it aloud. Instead, he asked, "Who was with you this morning?"

He only asked out of curiosity, but Zheng Yongna just kept laughing.

Lu Chen had no idea how many times he had been speechless today.

What are you laughing at?

Zheng Yongna raised an eyebrow: "Jealous? Oh, it's okay, they're just three classmates, um~"

After saying that, she even winked.

Lu Chen felt as if a crow had flown over his head.

He just asked casually, how did it become jealousy? I'm just saying, is Zheng Yongna really that self-important?

Now.

Lu Chen had nothing to say to her and simply leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes.

"Hey?"

Zheng Yongna patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Chen opened his eyes and turned his head.

"what……"

Zheng Yongna asked in confusion, "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you annoyed by me?"

Lu Chen sighed and closed his eyes again.

"Say something!"

Zheng Yongna directly shook him awake.
