99 This Is Really Shortening My Life 1 (1/2)

...

By the time the tenth game ended, it was already midnight.

Juice and Expert, who had lessons the next day, @'d [Yao Loves Ice Cream] and said that they were going to turn in for the night.

Shi Yao replied with an ”okay”, and a moment later, unable to hold back her curiosity in the end, she privately messaged [Expert of the Monkeys] and asked: [What happened to your boss? He seems a little out of it today.]

[Expert of the Monkeys]: I have no idea. Juice and I are puzzled too. He's never acted like this before.

[Yao Loves Ice Cream]: Don't you all live in the same dormitory room?

[Expert of the Monkeys]: We are, but Boss didn't return to our room today. It's the first time our boss has stayed out in the middle of the school term. I bet that something's up~

[Expert of the Monkeys]: Sis Yao, is it possible that Boss is secretly doing something behind my and Juice's back? Hehehe

[...] Shi Yao replied with a line of ellipses as she thought, This is the first time I'm seeing a guy who is more nosey than a girl!

After sending out the message, Shi Yao, who had scorned [Expert of the Monkeys] for being nosey a moment earlier, couldn't help but tap on her screen once more.

[Your boss didn't return to your dorm room tonight? If that's the case, there's a good chance that he managed to find himself a girlfriend…]

[Perhaps after tonight, your boss will be virtuous no more! Waaaa!!! Your boss has finally met his own Yin Zhiping…]

Shi Yao and [Expert of the Monkeys] chatted for quite a while before bidding each other farewell, thus concluding their exciting gossip session.

The bedroom was very silent, except for the muffled sound of flowing water coming from the bathroom.

If I'm not wrong, it feels like Lin Jiage has been in the bathroom for about a half an hour now... Does he always take this long to bathe?
