Unnoticed, the night passed, and the sun rose as usual the next day. The first rays of sunlight streamed through the window, scattering across the room. The bedroom, tidied up until ten o’clock last night, now seemed a bit messy. Zhou Yuwen’s and Lu Lin’s clothes were thrown all over the bed and sofa, and Lu Lin’s black flared jeans were draped over the edge of the large bed. Zhou Yuwen was still sound asleep, feeling satisfied. He felt like he had released eighteen years’ worth of pent-up energy last night, and that feeling was truly comfortable. But for Lu Lin, it was real pain. Zhou Yuwen even picked Lu Lin up later on, standing on the bed to transform into a little vibrating motor. At that moment, Lu Lin was genuinely scared, afraid that Zhou Yuwen wouldn’t hold her steady and might throw her off. Thankfully, when her thin, long legs started to tremble and she couldn’t stand anymore, she still endured it, not wanting to dampen Yuwen’s spirits. It wasn’t until after three in the morning that Zhou Yuwen finally fell into a deep sleep. As Lu Lin lay beside Zhou Yuwen, looking at his chiseled face, she wondered if what she was doing was right. After all, Yuwen was Yanyan’s boyfriend, and Yanyan was pretty good to her. What she did was quite unfair to Zheng Yanyan. However, Lu Lin thought that she didn’t intend to compete with Yanyan. Her feelings for Zhou Yuwen were complicated, not quite love nor anything else she could name. So be it. But honestly, lying beside Zhou Yuwen felt unusually comforting. With that thought, Lu Lin couldn’t help but snuggle closer to Zhou Yuwen, her loose hair brushing against his cheek. Lu Lin was a light sleeper and awoke after just about four hours. It was eight o’clock in the morning, and last night’s events felt like a dream, yet everything in front of her confirmed it wasn’t. Zhou Yuwen was still lying beside her, asleep. Propped up against the bedside table, Lu Lin took out her phone. There were several unread messages: Shen Yu: Linlin, do you have time to help me sun my blanket? It was a recent message, to which Lu Lin replied with an okay. Last night, Li Qiang sent Lu Lin several messages: "Made another 100 bucks today ????" "Linlin, are you free tomorrow? I’d like to treat you to a meal, okay? ????" Last night, Lu Lin was being pinned down on the bed by Yuwen, so she had no time to reply to Li Qiang’s messages, and she hadn’t responded. Until after two in the morning, Li Qiang sent another message: "Linlin, I actually know I’m not good enough for you, and even if Zhou has a girlfriend, you probably wouldn’t consider me. I just can’t help thinking about you. I don’t want to date or anything, but could you not be so hot and cold with me? I’m not asking for much, I just want to talk to you when you’re free." "My scholarship is coming through soon, and you said you’re short on cash, right? I can earn money with part-time jobs now. I can give you all of my scholarship money," Li Qiang said. These messages seemed quite sincere, and after thinking it over, Lu Lin replied, "Thanks." "But I don’t lack money anymore." "?" Li Qiang was apparently still awake. So Lu Lin said, "My dad sent me money." After sending that message, Li Qiang didn’t reply again, and Lu Lin didn’t mind. Apart from Li Qiang, Zheng Yanyan had also sent Lu Lin a few messages, mostly about how Zhou Yuwen was ignoring her again. "Linlin, what are you doing? I’m so bored. Can you talk to me, please?" Lu Lin closed the door and brought the items inside. With all the noise outside, Zhou Yuwen had woken up. He had several missed calls, including messages from Zheng Yanyan last night asking where he was. Seeing that Zhou Yuwen was not responding to her, she asked if he had fallen asleep. The next messages read, "I’m going to sleep." Apart from her, there were calls from Liu Shuo, messages from Su Qing, and a call from the property manager. Zhou Yuwen’s phone was on silent mode last night and was just switched to standard mode now. He then simply put on a pair of loose gray trousers and a white shirt. He stepped out of the bedroom. He saw Lu Lin, still slightly damp-haired, wearing a pink nightgown, holding a bag in her hand. Truth be told, Lu Lin looked quite the part of a young housewife. Zhou Yuwen asked what the property manager had said to her. Lu Lin replied that she bought some things and the property manager helped her bring them up. With her back to Zhou Yuwen, Lu Lin placed the items on the table. She was slim and couldn’t fill out the baggy nightgown. Her long legs were hidden under the loose pajama pants – the whole ensemble surprisingly aesthetic. Moreover, after last night’s escapade, when Zhou Yuwen woke up in the morning, he found himself vigorous again. Looking at the beauty in front of him, he felt desire welling up once more. At that moment, he didn’t like anyone else; he liked Lu Lin too much. So he wrapped his arms around Lu Lin’s slim waist from behind. Lu Lin stiffened slightly, clearly not yet accustomed to being intimate with Zhou Yuwen. On the other side, Lu Lin was taking out all the items she bought. Zhou Yuwen just held her from behind. Lu Lin could feel something pressing against her through the thin pajama pants. "What did you buy?" Zhou Yuwen, still embracing Lu Lin, asked curiously. "Just, some food, breakfast, and also..." Lu Lin didn’t say it outright, but she shook the medication in her hand a bit. Zhou Yuwen turned Lu Lin around to face him, leaning against the table, and told her, "You won’t get pregnant the first time." "Oh." Lu Lin didn’t know much about these things and after pondering a bit, she said, "Better take it just to be safe." "So you really don’t want to have a baby for me?" Lu Lin hung her head silently, not knowing what to say. Their relationship wasn’t exactly normal; what was there to discuss about having a child? Zhou Yuwen took the medication from her hand, saying, "Don’t take this kind of stuff if it’s not necessary; it’s not good for your health." Lu Lin nodded, signaling her agreement. Zhou Yuwen pulled Lu Lin closer, cupping her small face in his hands, wanting to continue what had started last night. Only, Lu Lin’s body hadn’t recovered, and she was a little afraid, yet she didn’t want to dampen Zhou Yuwen’s mood, so she said, "I bought some snacks, do you want to try some?" With that, she dangled a bag of potato chips in front of Zhou Yuwen. Zhou Yuwen placed his hand on Lu Lin’s slender arm, pressing her arm down and naturally interlocking their fingers. He said, "We’ll eat later, right now I just want to eat you." With that, Zhou Yuwen leaned in for a kiss. The two of them kissed in the living room, which had one wall of floor-to-ceiling windows. Right then, the sun was just coming up, filling the space with abundant light. Lu Lin closed her eyes, allowing Zhou Yuwen to have his way with her. Zhou Yuwen easily undid two buttons on Lu Lin’s nightgown. And at that moment, the phone rang. Who would be calling so early in the morning? The caller ID read: Zheng Yanyan.
