Chapter 25: For the first time, Tang Tang lied to her boyfriend.
Page (1/3)
Qin Feng no longer hesitated. Since the campus beauty had offered herself to him, there was no need to be polite.
He took Lin Yuwei by the hand and hurried into Dormitory 301, then entered the space with her.
On the snow-white, five-foot-wide single bed, he laid Lin Yuwei down.
...
...
Twenty minutes later,
The room was filled with a lingering afterglow, and the air carried a humid, ambiguous warmth.
Lin Yuwei lay languidly against Qin Feng’s chest. Twenty minutes had nearly made her forget who she was. Her voice held the soft murmur of a cat.
“Qin Feng, this time... you were even better than last time.”
Qin Feng’s fingertips traced her smooth back, and a wicked smile curved his lips.
“Is that so? Did you like it?”
“Mmm. I did.”
Her voice was barely audible. Then she propped herself up, grabbed the towel beside the bed, and, without the slightest hesitation, revealed herself before Qin Feng.
“You rest for a while. I’m going to take a shower. I worked up quite a sweat.”
As the bathroom door closed and the sound of rushing water filled the room, Qin Feng reclined leisurely on the bed.
A cold system notification rang out in his mind.

“Want to come again next time?”
Qin Feng looked at the source of Tang Tang’s anticipation, and a cold, mocking smile lifted the corners of his mouth.
Come, then.
I’ll be waiting.
Soon, the bathroom door opened.
Wrapped in a towel and trailing a cloud of steam, Lin Yuwei emerged. Like a docile little cat, she naturally snuggled into Qin Feng’s arms. The two leaned together on the sofa and switched on the television, watching without any particular purpose.
Lin Yuwei tilted her head up and said proudly, as though presenting a treasured gift, “I brought Tang Tang here today. Was I good?”
“Very good. So considerate.” Qin Feng stroked her damp hair, his voice filled with approval.
“Hehe.” Lin Yuwei laughed smugly.
“Isn’t Tang Tang supposed to be the pure and chaste campus beauty? Now she can have a taste of what hard work feels like too. In the future... you should have her massage you as well...”
Her tone suddenly shifted, carrying a trace of resentment and coquettishness.
“Come to think of it, you were pretty polite to her today. Why were you so fierce with me the first time?”
Qin Feng ran his fingers through her hair. Remembering the past, he suddenly pinched her cheek.
“Ow! You hurt me!”
“Lin Yuwei, what do you think?”
Lin Yuwei immediately fell silent. Then she rubbed herself against him ingratiatingly, lowering her posture as much as possible.
“All right, all right, I was wrong, okay? I shouldn’t have asked you to carry my luggage when I already had a boyfriend! It was so hot that day. I was wrong, boo-hoo. And now you’ve had your way with me too, so we’re even.”
The moment she finished speaking, her phone screen suddenly lit up. The ringtone sounded especially harsh in the quiet room.
The caller ID read: Wu Changle.
“Oh? Speak of the devil, and he appears.”
Lin Yuwei’s body instantly stiffened. She instinctively looked at Qin Feng, her eyes questioning.
“I... probably shouldn’t answer, right?”
A playful smile tugged at Qin Feng’s lips, and there was something unmistakably malicious in it.
“Answer it.”
“Answer it in front of me. I’d like to hear what the two of you have to say.”
“You’re awful.”
Lin Yuwei complained with her lips, yet her body was perfectly honest. She pressed the answer button and even turned on the speaker.
“Hello? Changle?”
“I’m fine... I’m in the dorm.”
“Yeah, I’m hungry. There isn’t much to eat, so I can only drink some coffee. There’s still a little sugar in it, so I won’t starve to death for now. How about you?”
“All right. I have a bit of a headache, so I’m going to sleep. Bye.”
Qin Feng quietly watched the woman in his arms.
He watched her lie to her boyfriend over the phone without even changing expression, and an indescribable sense of satisfaction rose within him.
So girls really could lie to someone’s face without batting an eye. He had to admire it.

Meanwhile, an even bolder and more amusing idea slowly took shape in his mind.
Next time...
Next time he and Lin Yuwei were enjoying each other’s company, he would call Wu Changle directly.
...
At the same time, in Dormitory 303,
The moment Tang Tang returned to her room, she rushed into the bathroom.
Warm water streamed over her body, yet somehow it could not wash away that subtle sense of guilt.
She changed into her favorite silk pajamas and threw herself onto the bed, hoping that a deep sleep would make her forget everything that had happened that day.
But her phone rang at the worst possible moment.
The caller was her boyfriend, Wang Zi.
Tang Tang drew a deep breath and summoned all her strength to make her voice sound perfectly normal.
“Hello, beautiful.” Wang Zi’s ever-bright, cheerful voice came through the phone.
“Hi, Prince.”
“How was your day, baby?”
“Nothing much. The military still hasn’t sent over any supplies.”
Her hand unconsciously moved to her lower abdomen, which was still faintly full.
“I have an idea! I still have two packs of instant noodles here. I’ll tie a stone to them, wrap them in a towel, and throw them from my balcony to yours!”
“No need!” Tang Tang’s heart clenched. “You should eat them yourself. What if they land in another dorm or fall to the ground? Then they’d be wasted.”
“Hehe. You don’t trust the aim of your school basketball team captain?”
“I do, but don’t waste them anyway.”
Using the sweetest voice she could manage, Tang Tang said, “You eat them yourself. It’s more important that you eat well than that I do.”
“All right. I miss you.”
“Mmm. I... I miss you too.”
As she said the words, her heart skipped a beat.
“Are things all right over there?” Concern filled Wang Zi’s voice. “Especially that Qin Feng. He has a gun. Stay away from that dangerous man. He lives in 301, you know?”
Wang Zi’s concern struck Tang Tang’s heart like the sharpest needle.
“Uh... heh, really? I wouldn’t know. What 301? No, there isn’t anyone like that.”
The words escaped her almost instinctively. Her voice was dry, and she stumbled over them.
“I’ve never seen Qin Feng. Qin Feng hasn’t come by either.”
“That’s good. Bye-bye. Good night, baby.”
“Good night... darling!”
Tang Tang hung up in a hurry and collapsed onto the bed as though completely drained.
She tossed the phone aside. Her heart pounded wildly against her ribs, as if it were about to leap straight out of her throat.
This was the first time she had ever lied to Wang Zi.
To that sunny, cheerful young man who was always as warm as the sun and treasured her as if she were priceless.
Sigh...
