The lights in the dormitory have already been turned off. Shi Qing had been sitting at her desk with headphones on from the very beginning, and when Jiang Keke and An Yin were chatting behind her, she had her small lamp on, reading a book. It wasn’t until a gust of cold wind blew in through the main door that she instinctively looked in that direction and discovered Jiang Keke leaving in a hurry. Shi Qing glanced at her phone and realized it was already late at night. She dragged her tired body up and went to the washroom to freshen up. When she came out, she saw An Yin sitting on the bed. "Shi Qing, are you still going to use the air conditioner?" An Yin asked. If Jiang Keke hadn’t returned to the dormitory tonight, they wouldn’t have turned it on. The air conditioner consumes a lot of electricity, and keeping it on all night would cost quite a bit. "I’m not afraid of the cold." Shi Qing stood in the center of the dormitory, her expression slightly solemn, "If you’re cold, you can leave it on." "There’s no need." Hearing Shi Qing’s words, An Yin quickly picked up the remote and turned it off. The once warm room was gradually overtaken by a chill. An Yin curled back into her blanket. In the dim box room, a lot of men and women were gathered, dancing and singing riotously. In the dark room, many were playing cards, in contrast to the lively young people singing outside, the ones playing cards were much quieter. In the hall, on a sofa in the corner, Huang Yiyi was held in Young Master Liu’s arms, the man’s hands were very restless, causing Huang Yiyi to scream repeatedly. Some of the men nearby, seeing Young Master Liu’s wanton behavior, laughed heartily, with some even saying, "Brother Liu, what refined taste you have." Young Master Liu cast a sidelong glance at the speaker. At this moment, the door to the box room was opened from the outside. Seeing the man leading the way, Young Master Liu immediately pushed Huang Yiyi out of his arms and quickly walked towards him. Many people, upon seeing Bao Shaojin, showed respectful expressions and nodded. Bao Shaojin passed the crowd and walked towards the dark room. Seeing this, Young Master Liu was about to follow, but when he turned around, he found his arm being tugged by someone. He looked up and saw Huang Yiyi leaning against him. Instantly, a charmingly wicked smile appeared on his face. "Accompany me to the washroom." The man’s voice, as he held her delicate hand, was a bit hoarse. Hearing this, Huang Yiyi’s legs began to tremble, but she could only let the man lead her towards the washroom inside the box room. After the attendant placed the glass down, he retreated to the corner. Bao Shaojin lounged listlessly on the sofa, his deep eyes growing darker. Although Su Nan could see through many people, this man in front of him was not one of them. Since entering, the man had downed several glasses of strong alcohol in quick succession. Su Nan observed him quietly with folded arms. The large room was exceptionally quiet. "Ah..." Su Nan sighed deeply and leaned lazily on the back of the chair, speaking leisurely, "I didn’t expect you to have such a day too." There was a teasing note in Su Nan’s voice, mingled with a hint of excitement. Su Nan was used to his friend’s stoic face, and seeing even a trace of melancholy there was indeed rare. Before Su Nan’s words had faded, he was met with a sharp glance, instantly making him shrink a bit, pretending to cough lightly. "Isn’t it just a little girl? Just take her," Su Nan said, looking at him. The Su Family, Lin Family, and Bao Family were all longtime friends; any gossip from these families almost immediately reached their ears. The rumor about Bao Shaojin getting close to a young girl quickly spread within their circle. Even though the Bao Family tried to suppress these rumors, there’s no wall that doesn’t have a crack. Initially, Su Nan didn’t pay much attention to this matter because Bao Shaojin was too disciplined, and his upbringing was extremely strict, making him develop a cold and indifferent demeanor. To say he fancied a young girl, Su Nan could believe it. But to say he fancied his cousin’s girlfriend, well... it wasn’t impossible, but given his rigid nature, even if he liked her, he probably wouldn’t take any further action. When Su Nan looked up again, he found his friend already holding a cigarette. He had never known his friend’s addiction to alcohol and tobacco had become so serious. Seeing his friend not respond, Su Nan cautiously suggested, "As someone who’s been through this, let me give you a piece of advice. Sometimes you think you like someone, but really, it’s just a physical attraction. All you need to do is..." "You’re talking about yourself, aren’t you?" Bao Shaojin interrupted coldly. Su Nan was left speechless. For origınal chapters go to 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝓷𝓮𝓽 The curling smoke dispersed, drifting in the air. Su Nan was genuinely curious about what the young girl Bao Shaojin liked looked like, to captivate his single-since-birth friend to the extent of behaving so unconventionally. "I called you here for something," Bao Shaojin said as he stubbed out the half-smoked cigarette in the ashtray, his deep gaze revealing a sharpness. "What is it?" Su Nan felt a chill down his spine, asked cautiously. "Do you remember when I asked you to get someone into the team?" Bao Shaojin spoke, his dark eyes filled with a ruthless glint. The air was filled with a coldness, and after hearing his friend’s words, Su Nan’s mind worked rapidly, and he clearly recalled this matter; however, his friend falsely claimed the person was a relative when asking for the favor. "Of course I remember." Su Nan was guilty as he spoke, "What about it?" "Replace her." Bao Shaojin’s voice was cold, carrying an air of command. Su Nan was startled and spoke with a low tone, "Can I ask why?" A cold glance shot over, making Su Nan purse his lips and shut up sensibly. Just at this moment, the door was pushed open, and Lin Yue’s bustling figure appeared before them. "Oh, our Mr. Lin only managed to be late by..." Su Nan glanced at the watch on his wrist and continued, "two hours." Lin Yue arrived by the high table, picked up a glass of wine, drank it all in one go, then responded to the sarcasm. "The little guy kept sticking to me to tell stories, which delayed me a bit." Lin Yue said as he finished, walked to Su Nan’s side, and slowly sat down. "Can you speak like a normal person?" Su Nan looked at Lin Yue with disdain, "You’re obviously staying shamelessly at Jingrou’s place, and use little love as an excuse." Having his subtle intentions exposed, Lin Yue did not refute, not even showing a hint of guilt. Su Nan was already accustomed to it. "What’s up with our big brother?" Lin Yue lowered his voice, his gaze falling not far away. In the dim corner, they saw Bao Shaojin treating the wine in his hand as if it’s water, which left Lin Yue dumbfounded. Even though the libertine sons in their circle would drink excessively, the one in front was actually the head of the Bao Corporation, having the power over its life and death? "Don’t pretend, I don’t believe you don’t know." Su Nan spoke. "I just can’t believe it." Lin Yue continued, "Who would’ve thought our big brother, such a beast, would be interested in his cousin’s girlfriend."
