Seeing that Chen Pingjiang didn't make a sound to stop her, Cong Nini grew bolder, leaning close to Chen Pingjiang, looking at his face up close, then lowered her head and kissed him.
At this moment, Cong Nini's heart was already filled with both nervousness and satisfaction.
She felt that she had gotten this man.
This was a long-held desire, and she hadn't expected it to actually come true, giving Cong Nini a dream-like sensation, yet the touch of their lips was so real, making her tremble all over.
Just as she wanted to go further, Zhao Shaoyang's voice rang out from outside the door:
"Brother Chen, why didn't you answer my call? It's time to eat."
"Huh? The door's open, Brother Chen?"
The two people on the bed were instantly terrified, their cerebellums seemingly shrinking.
Cong Nini hated Zhao Shaoyang for disturbing their good time, and she looked at Chen Pingjiang anxiously.
She didn't want to be caught red-handed, otherwise, Zhao Shaoyang, with his big mouth, would surely tell the whole class.
But at this moment, Zhao Shaoyang had already pushed open the door and entered Chen Pingjiang's suite.
It was at most ten seconds from the bedroom, and there was no time to hide anywhere.
Chen Pingjiang was also startled, almost slapping himself.
He had forgotten to lock the door earlier.
"Oh, got it. You go ahead, I'll be right there."
After all, Chen Pingjiang had strong psychological resilience.
After reacting, he cleared his throat and pretended to have just woken up.
Zhao Shaoyang, who was outside the room, didn't stop there but continued walking towards the bedroom where Chen Pingjiang was.
"What's the plan for the afternoon?"
Just as Zhao Shaoyang was about to push the door open, Chen Pingjiang pushed Cong Nini under him, clamped her head between his thighs, and then pulled the blanket up to cover them.
Cong Nini's entire body was in an ORZ pose, her head clamped by Chen Pingjiang's thighs, and her bottom resting on her calves.
Fortunately, Cong Nini was slender, so from the outside, it was impossible to tell that there was someone hidden under the blanket.
Zhao Shaoyang then pushed open the bedroom door, leaned against the doorframe, and said with a smile,
"Brother Chen, your suite is nice. Can I sleep with you tonight? Old Dong snores too dominantly."
Cong Nini, hiding under the blanket, saw that Zhao Shaoyang hadn't noticed, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her heart gradually settling down.
Chen Pingjiang's expression changed.
His legs, clamping Cong Nini's head, tightened slightly, signaling Cong Nini not to cause trouble.
"You can't stand Old Dong's snoring, so I can stand yours? I got a separate suite because I want a quiet night's sleep."
Chen Pingjiang's expression remained unchanged as he spoke to Zhao Shaoyang.
Zhao Shaoyang chuckled and nodded.
"Get up, it's time to eat."
He had also planned to wait for Chen Pingjiang to change clothes and go down together.
"You go first, I sleep naked."
Zhao Shaoyang pouted:
"It's not like I haven't seen it before, no need to be shy about getting up." He then turned and left.
Hearing the suite door close, Chen Pingjiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He flung back the blanket and looked at the disheveled, flushed Cong Nini, muttering,
"Are you not afraid of death, you goddamn woman? Still causing trouble even when hiding."
"Hehe, it's really exciting, so exciting my heart is racing and I can barely breathe."
This sense of taboo and excitement washed over Cong Nini like waves, making her unusually thrilled.
Chen Pingjiang gave Cong Nini a disgusted kick:
"So you really like playing with excitement, huh?"
"Dad—Dad, I'm leaving now, otherwise Zhang Lu will get suspicious if she can't find me."
Saying that, Cong Nini rolled out of bed and walked out clacking her high heels.
Halfway, as if remembering something, she turned back to Chen Pingjiang and said,
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Watching Cong Nini's retreating figure, Chen Pingjiang shook his head, a mix of helplessness and amusement.
If Zhao Shaoyang hadn't suddenly knocked on the door just now, it would have really happened.
If this woman truly let go of all her inhibitions and pride, no man could resist her.
Especially someone like Cong Nini, who was both daring and loved excitement, constantly "attacking" Chen Pingjiang with new tricks, making it impossible to guard against her.
Cong Nini, after leaving Chen Pingjiang's room, first checked if anyone was in the corridor, then carefully jogged two steps towards the downstairs restaurant.
Downstairs restaurant.
The students of Industrial Management Class 4 gathered in twos and threes to eat.
Zhang Lu craned her neck to look at the restaurant door, and upon seeing Cong Nini, quickly waved her arm.
At this moment, Cong Nini completely shed her appearance from Chen Pingjiang's room, transforming back into a reserved lady, gracefully walking over to Zhang Lu.
Seeing Cong Nini's slightly heaving chest, uneven breathing, and flushed face, Zhang Lu asked curiously,
"Did you run all the way here? I looked for you for a long time just now and couldn't find you."
Cong Nini took a sip of her drink and feigned calmness:
"I just went to the restroom. When I came out, I heard people saying it was time to eat, so I jogged over."
At this moment, Chen Pingjiang also slowly walked into the restaurant with his hands in his pockets, heading towards Zhao Shaoyang's table.
Seeing the smiling Chen Pingjiang, Cong Nini suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction, as if she and the man in front of her shared a great, unknown secret.
Seeing her friend's gaze fixed on Chen Pingjiang ever since he entered the restaurant, Zhang Lu shook her head and said,
"Stop looking. You, just give up on that idea. I estimate no girl in our class can catch the class monitor's eye. Don't get yourself involved."
Cong Nini, shifting her gaze back from Chen Pingjiang, argued,
"I haven't had any ideas about him for a long time. Ever since the dispute with Han Zhaonan at the water bar last time, Chen Pingjiang knows all my embarrassing secrets. How could I still have the qualification and courage?"
These words seemed to be for Zhang Lu, yet also like an internal monologue.
Cong Nini, from initially just wanting to find a rich second-generation sugar daddy and looking down on Chen Pingjiang, to thinking Chen Pingjiang wasn't bad, good enough to be her backup and prove her charm, and then to feeling she wasn't worthy of Chen Pingjiang – all this happened within one semester.
This semester, Chen Pingjiang was like the rising sun, shining so brightly that the students of Industrial Management Class 4 and even the entire Finance University couldn't open their eyes.
When they opened them again, the sun was already high in the sky, distant and out of reach.
Zhang Lu nodded:
"Sometimes it's sad to be in the same class as such a guy. After seeing him so much, looking at other boys always feels uncomfortable no matter how I look at them. I feel like I won't fall in love throughout college. But I'm very clear, the class monitor and we are like people from two different worlds. It's only because we're classmates, otherwise, we might never have any intersection with such a person in this lifetime."
After thinking for a moment, Cong Nini asked with a smile,
"You also liked Chen Pingjiang, right?"
Facing her best friend's question, Zhang Lu nodded generously:
"It's not just me. Lots of people like him. Only girls who don't like him have a problem with their brains."
"Actually..."
Cong Nini said,
"I've met his girlfriend, but you absolutely cannot tell anyone else. If Chen Pingjiang finds out, I'm finished. I promised him."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lu's eyes lit up:
"Who is it? It couldn't be Zhang Xinyue, could it?"
Cong Nini shook her head:
"Don't ask who it is. Anyway, I've never seen such a beautiful girl. She feels even prettier than a celebrity, and her temperament is absolutely amazing. From afar, she seems cold, but after interacting, you feel she's very gentle. It was then that I truly understood what people often mean by 'well-bred young lady' and 'gentle and graceful'."
"Hmph. Is it that exaggerated? Admitting you're inferior to other girls, that doesn't sound like something Cong Nini would say."
Cong Nini, sighing, stared blankly at the drink in her hand.
"I used to think that too, but the gap is just that huge, and it's useless not to admit it."
"You've made me so curious. What kind of girl can capture our class monitor's heart?"
"You'll know later, I certainly can't say."
Cong Nini shook her head, not wanting to dwell on these thoughts.
In the afternoon, Chen Pingjiang took the boys to play live-action CS.
The girls either went horseback riding or played go-karts.
Yongquan Villa offered many activities, enough to meet everyone's needs.
If Chen Pingjiang hadn't brought them, most people might never have been able to visit such a high-class place in their lifetime.
Once they enter society, they'll all become workers, busy beyond measure.
Where would they find the time for vacation or spring outings?
To entertain Chen Pingjiang, Yu Anming even arranged a grand bonfire party that evening, complete with a whole roasted lamb.
The outdoors in early April was still chilly, but it didn't affect the restless young hearts of Industrial Management Class 4.
Dong Tinghui, having had a few drinks, tipsily sat down beside Chen Pingjiang and grumbled,
"Old Chen, I want to confess to Wang Liwen. If it works out, great; if not, then so be it. What do you think?"
Chen Pingjiang "eh'd" and looked at Dong Tinghui in surprise.
"With so many people here, someone with Wang Liwen's personality wouldn't agree at all. Don't make a scene that you can't back out of."
Vice-class monitor Wang Liwen was upright and thorough in her actions, without the usual girl's daintiness or pretense.
Chen Pingjiang didn't think she would agree to a confession out of obligation to the environment or to save Dong Tinghui's face.
"But I've been pursuing her for half a year, I can't wait any longer."
Dong Tinghui intended to speak his mind, fueled by alcohol.
Zhao Shaoyang also leaned over:
"Brother Chen, don't listen to him. Wang Liwen has clearly rejected him many times. He's the one who keeps thinking there's still a chance and keeps pestering her. Wang Liwen is not like Cong Nini; when she rejects you, it's a real rejection, not playing hard to get."
Chen Pingjiang asked curiously,
"Didn't Old Dong have dinner with Wang Liwen a few times at the beginning of last semester?"
"So what? At the time, she was just interested in getting to know him. After getting to know him, she found it wasn't suitable and rejected him."
Zhao Shaoyang turned his head and patted Dong Tinghui's shoulder:
"There are plenty of good girls. Why give up the whole forest for one tree? After summer break, new students will enroll, and there will be countless beautiful junior girls. Before others even react, just snag one, and they'll sweetly call you 'senior' every day. Isn't that enjoyable?"
Chen Pingjiang didn't advise on such matters, nor was it easy to advise.
However, he also didn't have a good feeling about Dong Tinghui's confession.
But sometimes, stopping him might make him regret it later.
In the end, Dong Tinghui sobered up a bit, and after being persuaded by Zhao Shaoyang, he still didn't go through with the confession.
This also made Chen Pingjiang breathe a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, if Wang Liwen had rejected Dong Tinghui, it would surely become a laughingstock in Industrial Management Class 4, and Old Dong would find it hard to save face and continue attending classes as if nothing happened.
A lot of content can't be written.
As soon as I write it, it's reviewed; as soon as I write it, it's reviewed, and then I have to keep revising.
It's so annoying.
