Chapter 351 (1/2)

Unknown background

Zhao Youyue could not deny it; she was almost going to hate this “Shi Jingnian.” This was not a good sign. Under specific circumstances, hate could turn into love. She had this calm demeanor to uphold, treating everyone equally beneath her unyielding, serene gaze.

The opposite of love is not hate, but coldness. If you truly hate a person, it only shows that this person had really given you an indelible impression.

This guy was clearly capable of arousing girls’ curiosity. Girls could not help but want to know more about him. Who knows, they might find out something extraordinary about him.

Unfortunately, this was useless against Zhao Youyue.

Zhao Youyue merely smiled, regaining her composure. She turned on her heel and left.

Shi Jingnian seemed unruffled about his failure to accost her. He only became more curious about Zhao Youyue.

When night fell, Zhao Hao suggested that the group head for a Karaoke session. Naturally, this was warmly received by the group, as by then, everyone more or less knew of Zhao Youyue’s identity as the extremely popular female streamer, Ah Yu. On the internet, both her original compositions and her covers brimmed with popularity. She always trended on NetEase Music, to the extent that many fans hoped for an Ah Yu concert in the future.

If Zhao Youyue sang during the session, it would be another wave of blessing to hear her wonderful voice. Ding Yuncong was the most eager of the lot. He had even exchanged private contacts with Zhao Youyue, while being cheeky and asking Zhao Youyue to call him ‘brother.’ Zhao Youyue had courteously agreed to it, and this made Zhao Hao extremely jealous. How dare this Ding Yuncong steal his sister!

Ding Yuncong was most delighted. Obviously, he considered having a sister like Zhao Youyue to be the highest form of honor.

However, Zhao Youyue had expressed that she was a bit tired today. She intended to return to the hotel and rest earlier. Next time, perhaps.

Zhao Hao respected his sister’s opinion. However, he was already lightly intoxicated. Therefore, he asked Zhang Wanjun to send Zhao Youyue back instead, as Zhang Wanjun was not the type who would join the likes of Zhao Hao, Ding Yuncong, and the others for some gallivanting. She had already saved Zhao Hao from humiliation by joining them for a feast.

Zhang Wanjun had no reason to refuse. After all, it would not take long to send Zhao Youyue back to The Peninsula Hotels[1]. It also happened to be, Ding Yuncong’s permanent residence. Its monthly rental was 240,000 RMB.

Evidently, Zhao Hao considered The Peninsula Hotels to be worthy of his sister’s identity. Besides, it was not an extended holiday. He would never be stingy when it comes to his sister.

As Zhang Wanjun had brought along Shi Jingnian and Lin Shiya to the feast, both of them would have to tag along.

Inside the car, Shi Jingnian was no longer fixated on his girlfriend. He treated all three girls in the car equally. Despite his repeated claims of being inarticulate, he had only proven himself to be otherwise. His methods of pleasing the opposite sex did not seem to end. It was effortless for him to narrow the distance between him and females.

He was clearly a playboy, from head to toe. But he seemed to be more than that. He never asked for any return from females. He did not yearn for money nor sex. He just wanted to treat girls nicely. Was this the so-called sentiment of ‘having a tender heart towards women?’

Apparently, he considered putting in the effort for girls or beauties to be his greatest happiness and raison d’etre.

If Zhao Youyue still had any reservations for him, those reservations would give way to outright enmity. His actions were truly hypocritical and frivolous. No one understood how his girlfriend even put up with him.

However, after Zhao Youyue’s sage mentality went online, she only submerged deeper into her private zen corner. She was no longer cold and miffled as she was during the dinner party. She responded to Shi Jingnian very normally, as if he did not bother her the least, with a smile on her face.

At that moment, Zhao Youyue was invulnerable.
