Jiang Shiyu calmly tossed her phone aside and plugged in the hairdryer.
"Don't listen to that unhealthy stuff," she said.
Yun Li's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she processed the information. "Wait, are they together? Why didn’t anyone tell me?"
"Whether they are or not, you should be looking at me right now," Jiang Shiyu insisted, forcefully turning Yun Li's head to face her.
She switched on the hairdryer and began drying Yun Li's hair.
Yun Li's mind raced as she tried to piece everything together.
Jiang Shiyu had become increasingly skilled at using the hairdryer; what had started as a clumsy attempt had transformed into a smooth and effortless process. Soon, Yun Li's hair was dry. After finishing, Jiang Shiyu aimed the dryer at her own hair, casually tousling it before putting it away.
Excitedly, Yun Li grabbed his shirt hem. "I just realized! They must have gotten together when we were in America!"
Jiang Shiyu playfully ruffled her soft hair and chuckled lightly. "You’re not too bright, are you? Did you know all along?"
With a teasing hum, Jiang Shiyu picked Yun Li up and placed her on her lap. "How could Cheng Zhou possibly have a chance to get close to any other guy?"
"Right! How did I not think of that?" Yun Li exclaimed. Their playful banter about the two of them seemed to confirm their relationship.
Meanwhile, in America, Shu had settled into the couch early in the morning after finishing breakfast, chatting with someone.
After their conversation, she sought out Yun Li again. Suddenly, she sat up straight, her eyes widening in shock before lighting up with excitement as she noticed a message from Pretty Boy.
"Are you free tonight? At the bar near school?"
She quickly exited the chat page to respond to Pretty Boy: "Yes, see you at seven! Don’t be late."
Shu grinned widely, completely unaware that someone had been watching her for quite some time and had seen the entire conversation unfold.
Just then, her phone was snatched away. Turning around, she found Cheng Zhou standing behind her. His narrow black eyes narrowed slightly as he sent a voice message with a deep and pleasant tone: "Sorry, she's busy—she's making plans with me."
Shu Yi was furious. She stood up and snatched the phone away. "Are you out of your mind? Who wants to hook up with you?"
Cheng Zhou hid the phone behind him, his dark eyes exuding an oppressive intensity. His gaze fell, carrying a silent chill.
"Shu, my patience has its limits."
Shu tugged at his collar and shouted, "My patience has limits too! Give it back to me!"
The phone suddenly buzzed. Cheng Zhou turned to check; it was a message from Yun Li.
He replied.
Then he continued typing, but Shu's interference caused him to mess up several times. Once he finally sent the message, he tossed the phone aside and grabbed Shu's arm, pulling her upstairs.
Shu was thrown onto the bed, dazed and unable to fight back before a large hand seized her slender neck, tilting her chin up for a fierce kiss.
The room was filled with sounds of chaos; she tried to escape, but he dragged her back. She cursed at him, but he silenced her.
Her long, beautiful silver nails scratched at him as he pinned her down forcefully. Shu's clothes were in disarray; she wore only a form-fitting black skirt below, which he easily tore away.
In contrast, Cheng Zhou had only lost a few buttons at the collar, revealing his muscular chest and defined collarbones. His seemingly composed demeanor infuriated Shu even more—why did he get to stay dressed?
As Shu struggled fiercely, her anger gradually faded. She pouted, looking utterly aggrieved.
