Handsome, profound facial features, a tall, strong body, a status that made people look up to him, a proud family background. He Lele tilted her head slightly to look at the man lying on his side next to her. This man, who possessed all kinds of shining external conditions—was a rapist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She withdrew the palm resting on his waist, one hand warm and damp, and touched his back—it was covered in cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bent her arms to get up, but even though she had lightened her movements, the man in front of her still woke up in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Lele?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Listening to his hesitant, fearful tone, she couldn't help but think of their collective abnormality throughout the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are they afraid too? Afraid that she would know the truth, afraid that she would remember?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they were afraid she would know, why did they tell her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're covered in sweat, I'll go get a towel to wipe you down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking into the bathroom and looking at herself in the mirror, He Lele wanted to curl her lips but couldn't. Her own life had taken a completely different path because of a joke, provoking a group of men who should have had absolutely no intersection with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should she hate them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hate them, or hate herself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lele?\" Ruan Lin knocked on the bathroom door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll be right out!\" Before she could think too much, He Lele took a towel, soaked it in hot water, wrung it out, and walked out. She pushed Ruan Lin to sit on the edge of the bed and carefully wiped his body, which was covered in cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Touching the bed sheet, the half he slept on was almost wet and cold. He Lele didn't say anything, quietly changed the bed sheet and thin quilt, and poured him a glass of warm water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm a little hungry, I'll go down and eat something, you lie down for a while longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Hmm.\" Ruan Lin nodded. \"I, I'll wait for you to come back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening the bedroom door, He Lele was startled by the black shadow at her feet just as she turned to walk out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lele squatted down, looking at Qin Zhixiu, who was sleeping on the floor against the wall. Even though she had decided not to cry over her various messes anymore, her nose still felt sore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hate them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiu, Xiu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhixiu opened his eyes in a daze, and as soon as he saw her, he stretched out his arms to hold her tightly in his embrace, murmuring as if in a dream, \"Lele...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You'll catch a cold, hurry, get up, go back to your room and sleep.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the sound, Ruan Lin also walked out of the bedroom, looking down at the two of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't call him, he's asleep and won't wake up easily.\" Ruan Lin bent down to pick up Qin Zhixiu, and together with He Lele, sent Qin Zhixiu back to the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Qin Zhixiu's flawless, pure appearance, He Lele couldn't help but smile bitterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What could she hate him for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, you go up, put on some pajamas before you sleep, be careful not to catch a cold.\" Glancing at his well-defined, sexy, and alluring chest, He Lele instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll stay with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, I'll go up after I eat, go back and wait for me.\" He Lele said with a rare touch of firmness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Hmm.\" Like a tamed beast, he obediently entered the elevator and went upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going down to the first floor, facing the living room with only a few night lights, He Lele didn't want to turn on the lights again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hungry? Maybe, but she didn't want to eat anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't know what she wanted to do, didn't know what she should do, didn't know if... living like this had any meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh... she was actually thinking about such a difficult question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meaning?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meaning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To hell with meaning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She just wanted to live well! Strive to grasp the happiness she could grasp! Sadness, pain, unwillingness, humiliation... hadn't she experienced enough of them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In order to keep the peace and fear more trouble, she endured everything and retreated from everyone, but the result was sending herself into an even more ridiculous and pathetic life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hate them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No! She should thank them!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At least after this absurd joke, she had gained something she thought she would never have in her life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her footsteps gradually became firm. He Lele lowered her shoulders, straightened her back, and walked toward the sofa. She should think carefully about how to live her life in the future. Even if life is hard to plan precisely, she should at least have a clear idea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two steps away from the sofa, He Lele was startled again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked helplessly at Ji Jie, who was lying across the sofa—did they agree to come and scare her together?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Jie, the playboy whose first impression of her was terrible... she could almost no longer remember what he looked like at the beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the results alone, it seemed that it wasn't her who had been changed the most by that \"joke,\" but... them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What to do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hate? ...No, she didn't want to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forgive them just like that? ...No, she was unwilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lele...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lele tilted her head slightly to look at the man on the sofa who was calling out with his eyes closed. She sighed softly, went back to her room, took a thin blanket, and covered him with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Temporarily... let's leave it at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would wait until she could smooth out the anger in her heart before deciding. Before that—let them worry for a while, consider it her little revenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blinding light suddenly shone in from outside the floor-to-ceiling window. He Lele subconsciously raised her hand to block it, not wanting the light to shine on Ji Jie's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vehicle stopped outside the iron gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A taxi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the street lamp outside the door, a tall figure got out of the taxi—Mu Wei!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lele was pleasantly surprised and just wanted to greet him, but in an instant, she remembered the truth about the \"concubine,\" bit her lip, and turned back toward the elevator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she couldn't let go so easily, even if... it was Mu Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Writer's note:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The complexity of a woman lies in the fact that~~ many times, her mood is contradictorily uncontrollable, uncoordinated, and unguided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If hatred only makes one more painful, it's better to let go and cherish everything one can cherish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, I often see a sentence on Weibo: \"Thank those who hurt you, because they make you stronger.\" Although I encourage letting go of hatred, I can't thank those who hurt me. If I am strong, I will only thank myself and those who love me. As for those who hurt me, I can choose not to hate them, but I definitely don't mind cursing them to get their just deserts when I occasionally think of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>May everyone have a happy and fulfilling life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Love you all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>☆, (8 Fresh Coins) Chapter 272: Unknown Number\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there breakfast for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mu Wei? You're back! When did you get back?\" He Lele looked pleasantly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Wei walked to the dining table and gave her a good morning kiss. \"I was afraid that if I didn't come back, you would have forgotten me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the words \"forgotten,\" the expressions of Ji Jie and Ruan Lin at the table both sank. Ji Jie even glared at Mu Wei with a hint of anger. When Mu Wei entered the door last night, he had just woken up, so he told Mu Wei about He Lele's amnesia after she was stimulated by learning the truth about the \"concubine,\" fearing that Mu Wei would inadvertently awaken He Lele's memory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could that be? Haven't we been talking on the phone all along?\" He Lele smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only hearing your voice, how is that enough to satisfy the longing?\" Mu Wei leaned into her ear. \"It only makes me miss you more...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The word \"miss\" was drawn out long and ambiguously. He Lele's little face flushed slightly. \"Alright, sit down, I'll go get you breakfast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had to go back to Xin× this morning to record a few lines of dubbing, and also pick up the dubbing script for the next stage of work. As a newcomer to dubbing who didn't have a professional background, it wasn't easy for her to get stable work. Director Cai also admitted that he signed her because he saw she had talent and potential, but whether she would have good opportunities to practice would depend on timing, location, and people. Fortunately, Xin× had many small projects, and recently they were preparing to open an audiobook website, so she could choose books she was interested in, record them herself, and hand them over to the post-production staff. This way, after calculating the workload, her monthly income would be more guaranteed, and it would be more flexible with more pay for more work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was already very good; she had never been a person with great ambitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A job she liked, being able to see her own progress, and being able to increase her income along with that progress—how great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It'll be too late if I rush back at noon, so I called a part-time worker. Xiu, remember to come down and eat!\" Seeing that the men had almost finished eating, He Lele instructed. After she left, Uncle Guan and Aunt Wang had been taking care of things in the apartment. A while ago, the apartment had been empty, so Uncle Guan and Aunt Wang had returned to the Shentu family's main residence. Therefore, there was currently no fixed administrator in the apartment, just someone sent by Zhai Feiyun to supervise the property and cleaning company for daily cleaning and maintenance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I'll wait for you to come back.\" Qin Zhixiu's already fair skin looked even paler in the morning light, and his originally pink and moist lips also looked a bit dull, making one's heart ache for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. Eat on time.\" He Lele insisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Zhixiu lowered his eyes for a moment. \"I'll cook for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Then I'll rush back as early as I can.\" Facing Qin Zhixiu, she could only compromise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ruan Lin, I won't be out this morning, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, call me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1770,"2026-06-14T03:55:59.415Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2e76e15099cfdcaa7f642e47c08ab0fec30ca960b609fc737e671d013691678e","the-ultimate-men-s-apartment-chapter-247","the-ultimate-men-s-apartment-chapter-245",301,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-ultimate-men-s-apartment-cover.jpg"]
