Chapter 186: Chapter One Hundred Nineteen: You've Made Me Very Unhappy Today_2
Lu Lin listened for a while and felt that Tao Tian didn't sing as well as she did.
Chen Jiaming was still trying to please Lu Lin, but Lu Lin was getting annoyed.
Bowing her head slightly, she listened to Chen Jiaming's endless chatter.
She pulled out a slim lady's cigarette from her pocket.
Her nails were manicured into those long and translucent tips. Taking out a cigarette and raising her head, she skillfully placed it in her mouth, "Got a light?" Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire
Chen Jiaming was startled for a moment, visibly embarrassed, "I don't smoke."
"Oh," Lu Lin showed a look of disappointment in her eyes.
This disappointment gave Chen Jiaming a sense of defeat.
He never imagined that one day he would fail to impress a girl because he didn't smoke.
"I'll step out for a bit."
Lu Lin didn't pay attention to Chen Jiaming's feelings, just stood up by herself.
In the dim private room, one couldn't see Lu Lin's face, only her tall, slender figure leaving the room.
Chen Jiaming hesitated for a moment but did not follow her out.
The fact that Lu Lin smoked was indeed a big shock to him, the good kid.
That is the bitterness one endures in a life of drunken dreams♪
Tao Tian was still singing, and Zhou Yuwen noticed Lu Lin had gone out by herself.
On his side, he was still holding Zheng Yanyan, and everyone was curious about their relationship. They wondered how Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan ended up together.
Wasn't school just a month in?
And Yanyan, aren't you from Beijin University?
Zhou Yuwen, are you from Beijin University too?
Zheng Yanyan was enjoying being the center of attention, happily sitting in Zhou Yuwen's arms, recounting their love story, like how it all started with a hamburger.
And at first, it was my roommate who was pursuing her.
"But he ended up falling for me!"
At this point, Zheng Yanyan wore a face of pride.
Zhou Yuwen put her down, saying he was going to the restroom.
Zheng Yanyan was in the midst of a pleasant chat and naturally didn't care to notice Zhou Yuwen's departure, just continued sitting on the couch and telling her romantic tales with Zhou Yuwen.
For example, she didn't know Zhou Yuwen was wealthy when they got together.
He didn't even have a car back then.
Then on this trip to Macau, he brought me lots of gifts.
"Look, the Guerlain in my bag, and the HR, Zhou Yuwen bought them for me!"
"Oh my, HR is so expensive. My boyfriend would grumble just to get me a fifty-dollar cream!"
The girls were even more envious to learn of Zhou Yuwen's generosity.
This envy greatly satisfied Zheng Yanyan's vanity.
"Not really, Zhou Yuwen said the cosmetics in Macau are cheaper."
The KTV private rooms felt like an everlasting hubbub of joy, filled with groups of young men and women, talking, laughing, drinking, and singing.
This KTV was on the third floor, and the corridors were also extravagantly decorated. The only downside was the lack of breezy windows. Lu Lin walked to the end before she saw a window.
She disliked this kind of environment, too stifling, preferring to stand by the window and catch some air.
Outside was the bustling city night landscape.
Jinling in 2013 was already showing the embryonic shape of an international metropolis. It was late at night, but the streets were still bustling, with KTV's front doors bustling with perfectly dressed 'successful people' and big brothers decked in gold chains.
This is the big city.
Lu Lin stood by the window, looking out at everything in front of her.
When she stepped out, she had a cigarette in her mouth.
But she didn't smoke it.
She hadn't smoked in three days.
After all, Zhou Yuwen could come looking for her at any time, and she knew he disliked the smell of smoke.
But ever since her senior year of high school, she'd been infatuated with the taste of cigarettes, finding it a bit difficult to quit; even just smelling it felt good.
So Lu Lin did not light up, merely holding the cigarette in her mouth.
Leaning alone by the window, she watched the night scene.
Zhou Yuwen took a while to find her, "Wanted to smoke but got no fire?"
Zhou Yuwen looked amused at her with the cigarette in her mouth.
Surprised to hear Zhou Yuwen's voice, Lu Lin looked at him quizzically, "Not keeping your girlfriend company?"
"Just went out to use the restroom," said Zhou Yuwen.
"Oh," Lu Lin felt a tinge of disappointment, thinking Zhou Yuwen had come out specially to find her.
Zhou Yuwen walked over and tilted Lu Lin's chin upwards.
The lights in the corridor were dim, only the colorful neon lights flickered from outside the window.
Lu Lin looked at Zhou Yuwen, not understanding why.
Zhou Yuwen didn't speak; instead, he bent down and kissed Lu Lin's lips directly.
Lu Lin closed her eyes, as if she had been ready all along.
Lu Lin never guarded against Zhou Yuwen. It seemed he could have her whenever he wanted, her soft mouth always ready to attend to Zhou Yuwen.
The two went from a simple peck to a heated kiss.
Zhou Yuwen wrapped his arm around Lu Lin's slender waist and slid his hand upward from under the hem of her clothes.
The movement seemed a bit rough.
"Hmm," Lu Lin frowned slightly, apparently hurt by Zhou Yuwen's grasp.
But she just hummed and let Zhou Yuwen do as he pleased.
The two kissed for a long while, starting with Zhou Yuwen pressing Lu Lin against the window, to later, with a roll, he leaned back against the window to kiss her.
Even though they were separated by trousers, Lu Lin could feel Zhou Yuwen's desire for her.
She too wanted to give herself to Zhou Yuwen.
In fact, her breathing made it obvious how much Lu Lin wanted it.
But both of them were relatively restrained.
In the end, they only kissed.
Their lips parted, and Zhou Yuwen looked out the window.
Lu Lin wiped her mouth, "If we don't go back, Yanyan will come looking for you."
Zhou Yuwen said, "If one day you're going to have a boyfriend, let me know."
"?" Lu Lin paused.
Zhou Yuwen said he didn't like complicated relationships.
Lu Lin figured it out, looked at Zhou Yuwen's broad back, and suddenly laughed, "Are you jealous?"
"Hmm?" Zhou Yuwen chuckled lightly, naturally unwilling to admit it.
Lu Lin suddenly found Zhou Yuwen a bit cute.
She looked at Zhou Yuwen and said, "If you had enough money, I could be your woman for a lifetime."
"I think I'm more loyal than Yanyan and Su Qing."
Zhou Yuwen said, "So you're just after the money?"
"Hmm, hard to say. It might also be because of you," she teased, hinting at his body.
Possibly because of the kissing just now, there was a flush on Lu Lin's face, making her look exceptionally seductive. She wrapped her hand around Zhou Yuwen's neck and said playfully.
Zhou Yuwen bit her face, "I want to sleep with you again."
"Hmm, the restroom?"
Just then, footsteps were heard in the distance.
"Zhou Yuwen?"
When Zheng Yanyan appeared, she found Zhou Yuwen and Lu Lin standing by the window chatting, Lu Lin with a cigarette in her mouth.
Zheng Yanyan frowned slightly, "What are you two doing here?"
"Lighting a cigarette for her," Zhou Yuwen responded as he pulled out a lighter and sparked it with a snap.
Lu Lin glanced at Zhou Yuwen and bowed her head to light her cigarette.
"Tao Tian was looking for you. Ah, Linlin, you should smoke less too. I've told you hundreds of times, smoking is bad for your health," Zheng Yanyan said, tugging Zhou Yuwen away.
Zhou Yuwen said, "When did you become so generous?"
Lu Lin initially intended to go back to the private room with Zhou Yuwen but was held back by Zheng Yanyan.
"Linlin, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."
Lu Lin was curious.
"Ah, you go back first, I have something to discuss with Linlin."
Zheng Yanyan sent Zhou Yuwen away first. After confirming he had left, Zheng Yanyan's face still showed displeasure, "What were you and Zhou Yuwen talking about just now?"
"?"
Lu Lin was puzzled, but she disliked Zheng Yanyan's current tone, "What's the matter?"
"Why did you sing a duet with Zhou Yuwen just now?" Zheng Yanyan asked indignantly.
Holding a cigarette between her index and ring finger, Lu Lin exhaled a puff of white smoke lightly, "Is there a problem?"
"No problem, but Lu Lin, I hope you can be a bit more careful. You're my good sister, I treat you better than Su Qing and Shen Yu. I share everything with you, except for Zhou Yuwen," Zheng Yanyan said expressionlessly.
Lu Lin crossed her arms, skillfully extinguished the half-smoked cigarette on the window ledge, "Wait, wasn't that song your request?"
"?"
Lu Lin expressionless, "Have you ever considered whether I wanted to sing that song when you requested it?"
Zheng Yanyan opened her mouth but couldn't say anything right away, "I was trying to do what's best for you."
"Really?" Lu Lin tilted her head and glanced at Zheng Yanyan.
Zheng Yanyan felt guilty; she might have done it just for fun.
Lu Lin didn't bother to argue, "Instead of worrying about me, you might want to go back and ask Su Qing what she and Zhou Yuwen have done."
After saying that, Lu Lin snuffed out her cigarette and turned to leave the window.
"What about Su Qing?" Zheng Yanyan, hearing the name Su Qing, paused, wanting Lu Lin to clarify.
But Lu Lin simply said, "You've upset me today, don't talk to me anymore."
"Lu Lin," Zheng Yanyan seemed to realize she had done something wrong at that moment.
But it was too late; if Lu Lin said she wouldn't talk to her, she wouldn't talk to her.
She also said, "I'm heading back to the dorm now."
"Lu Lin, that's not what I meant."
Zheng Yanyan tried to explain, but Lu Lin had no interest in listening.
