Chapter 396: Heart-to-Heart Talk Late at Night_2
Indeed, Zheng Yanyan was a bit unhappy.
She always thought that she was Zhou Yuwen's first woman!
But now, doesn't that make her the second?
But Lu Lin reminded her that even without her, Zheng Yanyan would still be the second.
Su Qing and Zhou Yuwen knew each other since high school.
Zhou Yuwen said they weren't involved. But really, weren't they?
You've only known Zhou Yuwen for how long, and he could already sleep with you.
Besides, he's so skilled.
"Did he learn all that from me?"
Lu Lin gave a reminder.
Zheng Yanyan thought for a moment and found it made sense, but she said, "Isn't that still wrong? Doesn't that mean I went from second to third?"
"Actually, whether you're the first or what number doesn't matter. Besides, Zhou Yuwen has indeed been dating you," Lu Lin said.
Zheng Yanyan thought so too. Lu Lin made her move earlier than she did, but she didn't end up with Zhou Yuwen. In other words, shouldn't Lu Lin be her older sister, and wasn't she the one who took Linlin's place?
Hmm? Thinking about it this way, she felt a bit more comfortable.
Oh, but that's not right either.
"Linlin, does that mean you were ahead of me, and I took over? Were you secretly talking with Zhou Yuwen before?" Zheng Yanyan asked.
Lu Lin shook her head and said no.
"Then how did you and Zhou Yuwen...?"
Now, Zheng Yanyan was like a curious child, curious about everything.
Lu Lin pondered for a moment and decided to tell Zheng Yanyan.
At that time, I didn't have much money, short by about two thousand yuan.
Then I thought Zhou Yuwen looked pretty handsome and was wealthy.
I figured I wouldn't lose out by being with Zhou Yuwen, so I said yes.
"That's it?"
"Yes, he gave me the money but didn't promise me anything. Later, when you went home, I guess he was bored at that time."
As she said this, Lu Lin really wanted to light a cigarette, but she remembered she had quit smoking for a long time, so she didn't feel the urge to smoke.
Zheng Yanyan blinked, filled with disbelief.
She felt that Lu Lin's and Zhou Yuwen's story was even more outrageous than her own with Zhou Yuwen.
Two thousand yuan?
This...
"Why were you short of two thousand yuan? Didn't your family give you any living expenses?" Zheng Yanyan had long been curious about this because in the beginning, Lu Lin seemed to be short on money when the semester started.
"It's nothing, it's been a long time ago."
Lu Lin didn't want to talk about it, just saying, "You and I can't be compared. You and Zhou Yuwen are truly an official couple, at most I was just the trifling third wheel."
"At first, I didn't think of staying with Zhou Yuwen for so long. I thought at that time, since he helped me and he wanted it, I might as well give it, it wasn't a loss anyway. Later, when he was with you, I didn't think of continuing."
"But later I found out that he was actually pretty nice."
Leaning against the headboard, Lu Lin turned to glance at Zhou Yuwen, who was sleeping soundly on the other side, and said.
"Pretty nice?" Zheng Yanyan quipped.
But Lu Lin said, "I mean he's quite a good person, so I just kept being with him."
"Later, I didn't know when exactly, maybe out of habit, but when I saw him with you, I actually felt a bit jealous, and just kept being with him. He really treats me quite well."
"I just thought at that time, if he always treats me like this, I'll just stay with him, and when you two get married, I'll quietly stay outside. Anyway, I would never destroy your marriage."
Lu Lin spoke these words calmly, but Zheng Yanyan felt there was a hint of self-deprecation in them.
Zheng Yanyan inexplicably felt a bit sympathetic towards Lu Lin. After being friends with Lu Lin for so long, it was the first time they talked about these things, and it was indeed heart-to-heart.
It wasn't until they talked about marriage that Zheng Yanyan couldn't help but burst into laughter. She said she really thought about marrying Zhou Yuwen in the future.
But now, thinking about it, it seemed more and more distant.
In fact, when Su Qing appeared, Zheng Yanyan had already started feeling insecure, always feeling that Su Qing was much better than her.
Sometimes Zheng Yanyan thought if she were Zhou Yuwen, she probably wouldn't choose herself either.
After all, she's so difficult, loves to spend money, throws tantrums, and acts irrationally.
Although Su Qing is also lively, she's more capable than me.
Now with all those people in the student council, everyone looks up to Su Qing, far more than they do to me.
"Thinking back now, it's good to have you around, at least I won't be lonely."
"If Zhou Yuwen and Su Qing really get married one day, then we'll just let Zhou Yuwen keep us on the side," Zheng Yanyan said as she hugged Lu Lin, suddenly feeling a bit of warmth.
In the darkness, Lu Lin looked especially beautiful.
She leaned against the head of the bed, her eyes pitch-black and mysterious. She didn't agree with Zheng Yanyan and said, "She won't marry Zhou Yuwen."
"Why?" Zheng Yanyan was very curious.
Lu Lin said, you know it yourself, she's too lively.
"She might be a bit better than you, but the idea of marrying Zhou Yuwen is impossible."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yanyan thought her good friend wanted her to marry Zhou Yuwen, and got a bit excited. Self-awareness was one thing, but whether or not she wanted to marry was another.
But before she could speak, Lu Lin said, "Neither you nor I are suitable."
"So, the three of us can't just go on like this forever, right?" Zheng Yanyan said with a laugh.
Lu Lin thought for a moment and said, "Actually, Tao Tian would be quite suitable."
"Her!?"
Upon hearing that name, Zheng Yanyan immediately showed disdain, clearly not liking Tao Tian.
But Lu Lin said, Tao Tian is actually quite capable, and she's pretty good socially, at least better than the few of us.
Zheng Yanyan shook her head, expressing her dislike.
Then Lu Lin said, "Shen Yu is the most suitable."
"???"
This time, Zheng Yanyan was truly stunned: "Shen Yu too?"
"No, Zhou Yuwen and Shen Yu have nothing going on, I'm just saying, if it comes to marriage, Shen Yu and Zhou Yuwen are the best match. First off, she's known us all, and I've always observed how she treats you and Su Qing; she's been quite nice to you both. Even though she hangs out more with Su Qing, she hasn't completely sided with her. Plus, with her family background and upbringing, she has the capability. She may not match up to Su Qing, but she can manage the big picture. Her personality is good. If she marries Zhou Yuwen, we can all have peace of mind."
As Lu Lin analyzed, the more Zheng Yanyan thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense.
But did she really not have any relationship with Zhou Yuwen?
"I'm just saying this casually. Before, she liked Zhou Yuwen for a while, but given her personality, I reckon she won't end up with Zhou Yuwen now." Lu Lin said.
Zheng Yanyan thought for a moment: "Then if not Shen Yu, who would be suitable for Zhou Yuwen?"
Lu Lin listened and genuinely laughed, maybe it's just that from a different position, the perspective changes. Lu Lin really hasn't thought about marrying Zhou Yuwen, so she doesn't consider this issue.
But seeing Shen Yu's expectant look, it was clear she couldn't let go and still wanted to be the main wife.
However, this had nothing to do with Lu Lin. Lu Lin said, "If not Shen Yu, then it's hard to say. Anyway, with his abilities, he's not going to be ordinary in the future, taking care of a few of us isn't a problem. The main concern is that the future marriage partner might be too domineering and won't want us."
This was something Lu Lin always worried about, as Zheng Yanyan listened, she felt a bit defiant and couldn't help but say, "Then wouldn't it be great if I married Zhou Yuwen?"
Lu Lin laughed at this: "Well, you really are good, why not learn from Shen Yu?"
"Uh..."
Zheng Yanyan thought it would be too difficult.
But she couldn't let go of the idea of being the main wife, so she could only hold Lu Lin and say these things were too future-oriented.
"Want to give it a try? Anyway, with you by my side, Linlin, I know I'm not too bright, but with you, I believe we can do it!" Zheng Yanyan lay down and hugged Lu Lin, speaking sweetly.
Lu Lin saw Zheng Yanyan's innocent and lovely demeanor and didn't say much. Given a chance, who would willingly be the third wheel? Zheng Yanyan's thoughts were normal too.
Lu Lin, feeling she had no chance, cuddled with Zheng Yanyan and thought of sleep.
At this moment, she suddenly felt Zhou Yuwen behind seemed to quietly wrap her slender waist.
?
He wasn't asleep?
Lu Lin thought carefully, no way, how could Zhou Yuwen fall asleep so easily.
Was he...
Pretending?
Lu Lin felt Zhou Yuwen's head seemed to rest against her neck, and a warm breath blew onto her neck.
Mmm~
Lu Lin felt her body go a bit numb, and Zhou Yuwen's hand on her slender waist, slowly moved down...
