Chapter 851

Li Luo had worked out hard that afternoon, so by nightfall he was naturally drowsy.

After bidding goodnight to his three beloved wives, he collapsed into sleep.

When he woke again, it was Thursday morning the next day.

At six a. m., Li Luo opened his eyes on schedule, blinked hard twice, and immediately became fully alert.

But when he rolled over and sat up, glancing around, he realized Cheng Xin and Bai Haoran were both in bed, while Wen Zexuan's bed remained empty.

When Li Luo went to sleep past ten the night before, Wen Zexuan hadn't returned.

Looks like he skipped dorm again—no one knows which Miss's lap he slept on this time.

Just as Li Luo was thinking this, the dorm door was quietly pushed open.

Wen Zexuan slipped in silently, intending to climb straight into bed, but as he reached the bedside, his eyes met Li Luo's, who was already sitting up and about to get down.

"Hey, good morning," Li Luo chuckled, raising a hand in greeting.

Wen Zexuan, startled, let out a long breath after regaining his composure: "Luo Ge, why are you back in the dorm? Too many girlfriends to handle? Running here to hide?"

Li Luo rolled his eyes, then shot back without mercy: "What about you? Which Miss did you hook up with last night?"

"Ugh… don't even bring it up," Wen Zexuan said, waving a hand dismissively before climbing into bed, clearly planning to nap again.

"What happened?" Cheng Xin suddenly leaned over and asked Wen Zexuan, "Where did you sleep last night?"

"Damn it! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Wen Zexuan snapped, annoyed.

"What time is it?" Bai Haoran, also awakened, rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Just six," Li Luo replied offhandedly as he got out of bed.

"Oh, then I'm up too," Bai Haoran sat up, stretched, then turned to look at Wen Zexuan across from him, "So where did you go last night?"

"What else could I have done?" Wen Zexuan sighed. "Slept."

"But you look like you got thoroughly used up," Li Luo laughed teasingly.

"You're actually not wrong," Wen Zexuan retorted immediately, "I really did get used up."

"Holy shit!" Cheng Xin's eyes widened in shock, "Did you sleep with a guy?!"

"Get lost!" Wen Zexuan cursed, snapping back angrily, "If you can't speak properly, just shut up!"

"But you said it yourself," Cheng Xin said sheepishly, scratching his head, "How else could you get 'used up'?"

"Ah, don't even mention it," Wen Zexuan waved his hand irritably, "What else could it be? I slept with Jiang Lai."

"Huh?!" Cheng Xin's eyes widened even further, more stunned than before, "Jiang Lai? You two got back together?!"

"How to put it…" Wen Zexuan clicked his tongue, stroked his chin in thought, then turned to Li Luo, "Luo Ge, you've got more experience—what do you think this guy's really after?"

"What do you mean, 'what's he after'?" Li Luo was baffled. "First, I don't have much experience. Second, at least explain the situation clearly first."

"Basically, we did another ad the other day," Wen Zexuan sighed. "Yesterday, after editing and posting the video, the client confirmed everything was fine—completed successfully."

"Then I suggested going out for a drink to celebrate."

"Turns out we both got a little drunk, so… we suggested going to KTV to sing, and while singing… we kissed."

Here, Wen Zexuan grew slightly embarrassed, paused, then continued: "We were both probably drunk—afterward, she dragged me to a hotel."

"This morning, when I woke up, she said we're still just business partners, and last night was just an accident."

"What's the meaning of this? Free ride on my body?"

After hearing this bizarre tale, Li Luo couldn't help but twitch his lips, thinking what a ridiculous plot.

Cheng Xin was even more stunned, unable to comprehend such a lucky turn of events: "She—she… doesn't need you to take responsibility?"

"We've slept together before," Wen Zexuan rolled his eyes. "We broke up—why should I be responsible now?"

"But what if she secretly wants to get back together but is too proud to say it?" Cheng Xin asked again. "She's willing to sleep with you—can't you take the initiative to win her back?"

"Win her back? What a joke," Wen Zexuan looked utterly exasperated. "I'm worried she'll latch onto me. What if she uses this to blackmail me later and cuts off my ad share?"

Cheng Xin: "...?"

"Figure it out yourself," Li Luo said, rubbing his temples and waving a hand. "We three can't help you—just don't get anyone pregnant, and don't make a scandal that ruins my company's reputation."

Wen Zexuan: "... Is this the cold-bloodedness of capitalism?"

"I suggest you manage your own reckless impulses first," Li Luo rolled his eyes. "I'm done with this nonsense—I've got to go for a morning run."

"Come with us," Bai Haoran had already gotten out of bed and turned to look at Cheng Xin and Wen Zexuan. "Coming? I remember Cheng Xin hasn't finished his run yet."

"Oh yeah, I'm coming too," Cheng Xin nodded quickly and followed.

Exhausted from the night before, Wen Zexuan chose to collapse back into bed, pulling the covers up and waving them off: "You guys go ahead—don't regret it later. I suggest you don't run with Luo Ge."

Cheng Xin didn't understand what Wen Zexuan meant at first—he hadn't once encountered Li Luo on his morning runs this semester.

But the moment he stepped out the Qingxi Dormitory gate with Li Luo, Cheng Xin instantly understood Wen Zexuan's warning.

Because waiting right outside the dorm entrance were Yan Zhusheng and Ying Chanxi.

The two girls stood gracefully by the dormitory gate, naturally drawing the attention of everyone passing by.

Cheng Xin and Bai Haoran were no exception.

The thought that these two angelic girls were both Li Luo's girlfriends made Cheng Xin's eyes fill with envy.

"Hi there," Ying Chanxi smiled and waved at Li Luo's two roommates, then turned to Li Luo with a puzzled look, "Where's Youyu? Isn't she coming today?"

"I told her last night," Li Luo checked his phone—his morning message to Xu Youyu still hadn't been replied to, so he sent another: "Wait a bit longer."

【Li Luo】: If you don't come down soon, I'll turn on the loudspeaker.

【Xu Youyu】: I'm up! Brushing my teeth!

【Li Luo】: So you're still in bed, then?

Li Luo knew Xu Youyu's nature well enough.

If she were really brushing her teeth, she would've replied immediately—she wouldn't wait until he threatened her.

At that moment, Cheng Xin had already pulled Bai Haoran forward, waving at Li Luo as they walked: "Uh, Luo Ge, me and Hao Ge will head out first—we won't bother you!"

"Oh, bye then." Li Luo waved to the two of them, watched them leave, then brought Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng to the base of Xu Youyu's dorm building.

After waiting another ten minutes or so, Xu Youyu's figure finally appeared.

"I thought you were going to back out again," Li Luo chuckled as Xu Youyu ran up to them.

"You said you'd shout for me with a loudspeaker—how could I not come down?" Xu Youyu rolled his eyes and grumbled, "All you ever do is threaten me."

"I'd never really shout," Li Luo said, leading the three girls toward the dorm complex gate. "Shouting with a loudspeaker this early? I'd get beaten to death by the residents of the nearby buildings."
