"Wait, who is that girl in your profile picture?"
"Who? She's just a girl I hooked up with a few days ago. Are you jealous or what?"
"Come on, you change girlfriends so often, today you’re praising her to the skies, and tomorrow you’ll kick her out of bed." Ye Chenfeng joked, not waiting for Qin Keqing to respond before quickly adding, "Stop with the nonsense. She’s your girlfriend; where is she now and who is she with?"
"She's taking a bath. Who else would she be with? Alone, obviously. Do you expect me to keep her company while she showers?"
"Are you sure she's at home?"
Qin Keqing found Ye Chenfeng's behavior a bit strange today. He usually didn’t care about anyone, but now he was suddenly concerned about his girlfriend. What was going on? "Hey, what’s up with you? Do you know her or does she know you? Why are you so inexplicably worried about her?"
Ye Chenfeng said seriously, "Qin Keqing, listen carefully. She's in danger, and you need to keep an eye on her. I'm coming over to your place right now."
Before Qin Keqing could say anything else, Ye Chenfeng had already hung up.
"Damn it, danger! That guy is probably just trying to scare me with some nonsense. What danger could there possibly be?"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chenfeng hurried towards Qin Keqing's house.
Qin Keqing lived in the Purple City Hibiscus Community, an elevator apartment on the 28th floor.
Ye Chenfeng wasn’t fond of elevator apartments, especially ones that were over twenty stories high; they were just the right height for absorbing toxic gases. Fortunately, Qin Keqing lived a few floors down, so he wouldn’t have to deal with that.
The route from Dongmen University to Purple City Hibiscus Community required him to go through Zhongxing Road and Perfume Bay Villa Complex, which meant he had to circle around half the city.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t have a car and could only take public transport.
Taking the bus wasn’t too bad as long as he timed it right; he should still make it in time.
When the bus arrived, the people waiting at the station rushed toward the doors all at once.
With so many people boarding together, plus those already seated inside, it was a tight squeeze. Ye Chenfeng quickly spotted an empty seat near the door and seized the opportunity to sit down without hesitation.
As soon as he sat down, the vehicle started moving, and those without seats hurriedly grabbed the safety bar.
A woman, her chest heaving, set her sights on Ye Chenfeng, clearly thinking he was easy to bully. Without hesitation, she casually sat down on his lap.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Her actions made Ye Chenfeng's face flush with embarrassment and anger. To others, it seemed like he had some sort of ambiguous relationship with this stranger. After all, why would she choose to sit on his lap instead of bothering someone else?
"I'm not doing anything. I had my eye on this seat long before you took it..."
Ye Chenfeng thought that if the person were an older woman, he would have readily given up his seat. But she was so young—why did she think it was okay to sit on someone’s lap? Infuriated, he shot back, "How is that possible? Where were you when I took this seat?"
"Although I didn't get here in time, my eyes saw this seat first." The young woman clung to the safety bar, refusing to budge.
Ye Chenfeng reached out to push her off but felt a soft roll of flesh under his hand, which startled him. It felt strange, almost like an electric shock, and he quickly withdrew his hand.
This young woman had already begun to gain weight at such a young age; her figure had lost its appeal. As Ye Chenfeng pushed against her, she thought he was just teasing her and laughed uncontrollably. Half-threateningly, she said, "If you push me again, I'll scream harassment and see how you deal with it."
Ye Chenfeng was furious, cursing inwardly: Damn it, this annoying woman—what's with the act?
The young woman’s weight was heavy on his legs, making them tremble under the pressure.
"Get off me."
Ye Chenfeng was genuinely angry now and shoved the young woman away.
She retaliated with a barrage of insults: "Not comfortable? Then hurry up and go to a pet hospital! Look at you—such a good-looking guy but no compassion at all! My period just started; do you understand how uncomfortable that is?"
Her voice was so shrill that it sent shivers down Ye Chenfeng's spine and everyone around him felt the same.
Someone nearby couldn't stand it any longer and shouted back, "Damn it! Enough with the whining! Can you at least wipe yourself properly?"
The young woman, seeing someone backing her up, became even more furious and aggressive. After being pushed off Ye Chenfeng's lap, she casually climbed back onto his legs.
Her hair was wild and unruly, brushing against his face intentionally or not, making his skin itch. The cheap perfume she wore was overwhelming, causing his nose to twitch with the urge to sneeze.
Before he could sneeze, the woman sitting on his lap started a new trick. She treated Ye Chenfeng's legs as her personal stool, pulling out a compact mirror from her bag and beginning to apply makeup.
The other passengers in the car were both annoyed and helpless.
People speculated about the relationship between Ye Chenfeng and this woman.
Perhaps it was a love triangle.
It was clear that this woman considered herself superior to the young and handsome guy.
Although he was red with anger, it seemed that he truly had no way to deal with her.
Feeling the weight of people's curious gazes and various speculations, Ye Chenfeng stood up abruptly, throwing the Fujoshi off his lap. Before she could settle down again, she exploded in rage, grabbing his collar and unleashing a torrent of insults like a shrew in a street fight.
Her words were enough to offend many passengers, leaving Ye Chenfeng wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
This woman was utterly unreasonable.
Just listen to what she shouted.
"Don't think you're so handsome and cool! I could pull anyone off the street who would put you to shame!"
Given the context of her insults, the passengers were even more convinced that there was some sort of scandalous relationship between Ye Chenfeng and this woman.
As a result, a few passionate individuals in the car who initially felt sympathy for him began to look at Ye Chenfeng with new eyes, deciding it was best not to get involved in their drama.
The war with the young woman continued until the next stop.
At the next stop, a new group of people boarded.
Some also got off.
Many seats became vacant.
Ye Chenfeng thought to himself that with so many seats available, he could finally relax and avoid any unpleasantness with this annoying woman. He decisively took a step back, giving up his original seat to her, and moved forward to find a place to sit.
The young woman let out a cold laugh and said, "You looked down on me earlier, so today I'm going to confront you." With that, she headed straight for Ye Chenfeng and, astonishingly, sat down on his lap.
"What are you doing, you crazy woman?" Ye Chenfeng exclaimed, his voice trembling with anger.
The young woman arrogantly turned her head away, gazing out the window.
Outside the window was a bustling scene.
The streets were crowded with people, filled with an array of goods and vendors shouting to attract customers.
Ye Chenfeng pushed her off his lap forcefully. As the vehicle moved forward, she stumbled and nearly fell.
Fuming, she widened her eyes and pulled down her low-cut wool sweater to reveal a black bra underneath, cursing, "You modern-day Chen Shimei! I'm going to take you on!" She extended her messy, painted fingernails toward Ye Chenfeng's face.
Damn it! Fujoshi called Ye Chenfeng a modern-day Chen Shimei, causing an uproar among the passengers in the vehicle. They whispered among themselves, accusing Ye Chenfeng—who was already the victim—of being fickle and untrustworthy, suggesting that he must be looking at other women while being with her.
Moreover, Fujoshi was just a bit overweight and older by a few years; she wasn't unattractive.
Listening to the clueless onlookers gossiping about him, Ye Chenfeng felt as if he had stepped into a zoo.
This was what women were like. One of their fighting skills was grabbing faces. If he hadn't encountered Ding Li or Li Xin before this moment with Fujoshi, he would have definitely avoided provoking such creatures altogether.
Ye Chenfeng nimbly dodged the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, standing up in shock. He glared at the woman who attacked him again and said sternly, "Don't go too far."
Could he really be this spirited? Fujoshi was taken aback, retracting her hand and sitting back down in the spot Ye Chenfeng had just vacated.
"What is she to you?" an elderly man asked kindly. He had boarded the bus with Ye Chenfeng and had witnessed Fujoshi's entire provocative performance.
"Nothing at all." Ye Chenfeng walked to the door, intending to get off at the next stop. After that, he planned to take another bus to Qin Keqing's house. He simply didn't have the energy to deal with that smug Fujoshi, who looked like a fighting rooster.
The bus came to a stop.
Before Ye Chenfeng could get off, Fujoshi rushed out of the door ahead of him and waved her hand, saying, "Bye-bye! I won't be lonely on this ride."
"What the hell is wrong with her?" Ye Chenfeng watched as Fujoshi provocatively blew him a kiss while shaking her rear before disappearing into the crowd.
Feeling frustrated, he returned to his seat and checked the time. It was truly ridiculous. He had gotten caught up with that Fujoshi and had unknowingly missed his stop.
Ye Chenfeng should have gotten off at the previous station.
Buses couldn't just stop whenever you shouted; they only stopped at designated stops.
Finally reaching the next station, Ye Chenfeng hurriedly got off. In a rush to catch another bus, he dashed across the street, thinking it would only take two stops to reach his destination quickly.
However, upon arriving at the opposite bus station, he realized he was too late.
The bus ignored his calls and drove away.
With no other option, Ye Chenfeng had to walk while keeping an eye out for any incoming buses.
After waiting for a long time without seeing any buses, he was sweating from his brisk walk.
Worried about missing out entirely, Ye Chenfeng spotted a taxi and quickly flagged it down.
Before getting into the car, he said to the driver, "Furong Community, Phase One."
The driver ignored Ye Chenfeng and slowly moved forward, making Ye feel as if the car was waiting for him. He hurried a few steps ahead, and the driver extended his hand, asking for payment.
"I'm not at my destination yet; how could I pay you?"
The driver pointed to another direction and said, "Isn't that the Furong Community you're looking for?"
"Wow, how did we get here so quickly?" Ye Chenfeng was taken aback, but the driver snatched the ten yuan bill from his hand and said, "The starting fare is seven yuan; here's your change of three yuan—no more, no less."
Ye Chenfeng was shocked. "Hey, that's not fair! I haven't even taken your cab..."
The taxi driver's time was precious; he was in a rush to earn money to support his family and had no time to listen to explanations or arguments. The car's exhaust puffed out smoke as it sped away, leaving this bewildered guy feeling frustrated.
The Furong Community was right in front of him.
Ye Chenfeng dialed Qin Keqing's number, as he truly had no idea which unit her home was in.
This was his first time visiting Qin Keqing's place.
Wasn't he quite self-conscious a while ago? Besides, he had only been classmates with Qin Keqing for a little over half a year since school started. How could he just show up at her house uninvited? So now he needed to contact Qin Keqing to find out her exact location before proceeding.
