With the windows rolled down and the cold night air breezing icily past her ears, Yun Wei was so happy that she wanted to shout with joy.

Lu Zhanting drove very fast.

In a short while, Lu Zhanting and Yun Wei arrived at their apartment suite.

Once inside the apartment, Yun Wei noticed that there was something playing on the computer on the table.

A show in progress!

She rushed over to the computer and saw Bai Wenping and Hua Shasha on the screen.

So, they had returned to the apartment before her and were in the bedroom next door.

They appeared on Yun Wei’s computer screen.

It was real-time footage captured by the monitor that Yun Wei had installed in the room.

Taking off her shoes, Yun Wei settled comfortably on the sofa, coffee in hand, to watch the show.

Looking a tad worried, Bai Wenping said, “Has Yun Wei come back yet? Could she have lost her way? Let’s go out and look for her.”

Hua Shasha wasn’t happy. “What for? Don’t tell me you still have a soft spot for that little piece of trash?”

“Well, she’s slow-witted, so if she gets lost, someone will blame us for it.” Seeing that Hua Shasha was jealous, Bai Wenping pulled her into his arms in one fell swoop and said, “Plus, Yun Wei is our ATM. How could we let her out of our sight? She’s such a cold fish. How could she even begin to compete with you?”

Hearing what Bai Wenping said, Yun Wei shook her fist at the computer.

Noticing that Yun Wei had unleashed her kitten’s claws, Lu Zhanting sat down next to her and looked at the video playing on the computer screen.

Realizing that this was a real-time stream, he laughed out loud. Yun Wei was definitely no idiot. She was really good at using whatever was at hand to achieve her goal.

“Having fun?” Lu Zhanting asked, his eyebrows raised.

“It’s a free show, so of course it’s fun,” Yun Wei replied, smiling radiantly.

Full of curiosity, Lu Zhanting asked, “So what’s the story behind that fake necklace?’

“They had a replica made, but I swapped it out,” she responded smugly, like a cat happily toying with the two mice it had caught in its claws.

Lu Zhanting gave a little nod.

If that was the case, then since the moment she’d recovered her senses, she had been successively scheming to entrap and toy with Bai Wenping and Hua Shasha.

It was definitely no small feat for someone at her age to be so smart and strategic.

However, Yun Wei’s attention was focused on the computer screen.

As her face lit up with a faint smile, her profile and facial features, softly beautiful, made her look very enticing.

Recalling her soft, fleeting kiss, like a dragonfly darting along the surface of a pond, Lu Zhanting smiled.

Focused on watching the screen, Yun Wei suddenly felt Lu Zhanting’s large palm curl around her pretty head.

Before she had time to respond, his cool lips abruptly pressed against her rosy ones.

Yun Wei gasped softly, but he had already wrapped his arms around her.

Her senses were accosted by a uniquely masculine scent.

Lu Zhanting wasn’t a smoker, so apart from his faint musky smell, there was nothing about his scent that made Yun Wei feel uncomfortable.

To Yun Wei, he was like the sun on a cold winter’s day. Always warm. Strong, but never lacking in gentleness.

Yun Wei closed her eyes, her sudden, turbulent emotions subsiding. Gradually, she felt at ease.

Calmly, she accepted his kiss.

However, although she appeared calm and didn’t resist his kiss, her inexperience was evident in how she kept her teeth clamped shut, not knowing how to respond to him. It made Lu Zhanting’s kiss feel a tad unfulfilled.

Lu Zhanting’s breathing gradually became heavier.

To think that a simple, innocent kiss like that had stirred up all sorts of emotions deep inside him.

He had never experienced anything like this before in his life.
