I slept a bit late last night and got up late this morning, sorry, here's the first update~~~

...

"Are you okay?"

A very pleasant and melodious voice rang in Qin Fang's ears, clearly the voice of the "police officer" who had just called out to save him.

"I'm okay... Thank you,"

While speaking, Qin Fang turned his head to look at the other person.

This was not a beautiful girl. Her figure was a bit plump, probably considered "sturdy." She was wearing a uniform that, from a distance, really resembled a police uniform, but only upon closer inspection did he realize it was just a cosplay prop outfit.

"Good to know you're okay. I'll be going then! You should hurry up and leave too, this place isn't very safe at night, especially these small alleys; you really shouldn't come here..."

Having said this, the chubby girl walked away with cheerful steps, disappearing into the night.

"What a shame..."

Looking at the departing figure, Qin Fang shook his head and said, then he also stood up, ate a few buns, and his Life Points immediately went back to full.

He had now realized that to eat buns and replenish blood, he didn't actually need to take them out and bite into them. It worked just like in an online game; a double click inside the inventory was all it took, and Qin Fang only needed to choose the bun and then silently think about eating it.

Of course, if he chose to eat a hundred at once, Qin Fang would undoubtedly stuff himself to death on the spot.

Moreover, the Props Box had another advantage: the buns would stay just the way they were put in, never spoiling. It's just that liquids like wine might blend and flow a little.

"Damn it..."

Just as Qin Fang was leaving the alley, he suddenly remembered he had been out for a long time. If he didn't return soon, Tang Feifei and the others were bound to notice his absence.

But there was no supermarket nearby to be found, which left Qin Fang both anxious and upset, "You win this round!"

"Fangfang, where did you go?"

When Qin Fang got back to the movie theater, he found Tang Feifei and the others had actually come out, anxiously waiting in the lobby. The moment Tang Feifei saw Qin Fang entering from the door, she hurried over, asking in a concerned and urgent tone.

"Didn't I tell you? I felt sick in my stomach so I went to the pharmacy to get some medicine. I'm much better now... Come on, let's continue watching the movie!"

Although he was a bit surprised that Tang Feifei and the others noticed his absence so quickly, Qin Fang had already prepared an excuse.

"Forget it, let's not watch anymore. With you feeling unwell, how can I be in the mood to continue watching? Fangfang, let's go back... Muxue, you and Lu Xuan keep watching, we'll take our leave!"

In the midst of speaking, Tang Feifei's face showed concern, and of course, she didn't forget to try pairing up Xiao Muxue and Lu Xuan.

"I don't want to watch anymore, let's go back,"

Xiao Muxue simply shook her head and refused. She wasn't interested in Lu Xuan at all and was even less likely to spend time alone with him. Yet, while speaking, her gaze unintentionally swept over a certain lower region of Qin Fang's body, and Qin Fang was clearly able to see a hint of teasing from her eyes.

"This siren!"

Qin Fang muttered quietly to himself, blaming her for putting him in this situation, but then he also felt somewhat nostalgic for the sensation from earlier, even looking forward to next time.

Lu Xuan, being the least vocal of the four, had to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor and naturally couldn't decline easily. Thus, the four of them, with two cars, left the city center and returned to the college town once again. The movie and the date ended just like that, half-heartedly. Aside from Qin Fang and Xiao Muxue, Tang Feifei and Lu Xuan both failed to achieve what they intended.

"Fangfang, remember to rest well when you get back, and don't give Xiao Nan and the others the runaround. I'll come to get you in the morning!"

Perhaps because Qin Fang was feeling unwell, Tang Feifei no longer insisted on hanging out. Instead, she instructed Qin Fang to rest early, and then the four of them went their separate ways.

Tang Feifei wore a look of worry, Xiao Muxue's expression was calm but with a touch of joy in her heart, Qin Fang's mood was somewhat complicated, and as for Lu Xuan, when he left, his face was unspeakably gloomy.

...

"Eh, Fourth Brother, didn't you go to the city to watch a movie? It's not even nine o'clock, how come you're back so early?"

As Qin Fang stepped into the dorm, the guys were as usual, those who were playing landlord were playing, those who were on the computer were busy with their screens. Seeing Qin Fang return so soon, they couldn't help but check the time and asked in surprise.

"I felt a bit sick, so I came back early..."

Qin Fang tossed his keys on the table, looking quite dispirited. He picked up some clothes from the bed and headed to the bathroom for a shower.

"Easy, easy, come on... Fourth Brother, here's the 'Seducing Chicks Thirty-Six Stratagems' that the brothers have drafted for you!"

However, Xiao Nan immediately sprang up from the bed, grabbed Qin Fang, then rummaged through the table to pull out a piece of paper. It was already scrawled with writing, and glancing briefly at the list, Qin Fang indeed saw thirty-six items.

"What are you talking about? I already have a girlfriend. Why do I need any 'Seducing Chicks Thirty-Six Stratagems'? You guys should use it yourself..."

Qin Fang didn't bother to look at the details, simply slapped the paper back onto Xiao Nan's chest, humphed twice, and prepared to take a shower.

"Damn, your chick is about to be poached by someone else, and you still won't listen to advice?"

Xiao Nan didn't stop Qin Fang, just muttered resentfully behind him, clearly quite annoyed, while the brothers playing landlord also stopped their game and looked at Qin Fang.

"Fourth Brother, that Lamborghini dude today was both handsome and rich, slick and pretty, the type you can tell isn't a good bird just by looking. If Muxue really starts dating him, she's bound to suffer. Can you really bear to hand your woman over to such a guy?"

Gao Ming, who seldom expressed his opinions, was also somewhat angry as he spoke.

Everyone knew a bit about Gao Ming's past; in high school, he dated a girlfriend too. But later, a wealthy and powerful second-generation rich kid took a fancy to her. With sweet words and a barrage of money, he soon won her over, even got her pregnant. In the end, the rich kid threw some money at her to get an abortion and, driven by a wish to cut off her hope, kicked her pregnant belly, causing a miscarriage and a huge loss of blood that almost cost her life.

Ever since then, Gao Ming had a strong aversion to these rich second-generation kids. At first, he was extremely displeased with Xiao Nan, too, but as they got to know each other, he realized Xiao Nan wasn't the arrogant type and gradually started to treat him as a brother.

Today, seeing Lu Xuan driving that Lamborghini sports car with that brooding aura, he couldn't help but think he was no good and thus, he spoke up.

Hearing Gao Ming saying so, Qin Fang momentarily paused, recalling the handsome face of Lu Xuan and the occasional sinister look that flashed beneath it, his eyes revealing considerable hesitation.

"Don't talk nonsense, Muxue and I are just good friends, it's not what you think!"

Yet thinking of the complicated relationship involving three people, Qin Fang didn't dare to think further, just waved his hand and went into the restroom with his clothes.

"Good friends? That's what you call good friends?"

Xiao Nan's extremely contemptuous retort came from behind, obviously very unimpressed with Qin Fang's claim, and the other brothers also showed their agreement.

As the saying goes, the player is blind while the spectators see clearly,

Qin Fang, caught in the midst of it all, had difficulty grasping the whole picture, and the feelings hidden deep in his heart.

The icy water washed over Qin Fang's body, but it couldn't cool down his racing mind, especially remembering the scene in the darkness where Muxue's little hands were on him, that extremely exciting, wonderful sensation, which was causing a certain part of his body to react once more.

...

In the deep quiet of the night, Qin Fang still couldn't fall asleep.

"Do I really like her too?"

Qin Fang was a bit confused; he never thought of himself as a philanderer. He liked beautiful women, too, but he had not expected to find himself drawn to two girls at the same time.

Buzz, buzz, buzz~~

Just then, the cellphone on his pillow suddenly vibrated, signaling an incoming text message.

"Muxue?"

Qin Fang checked it and saw, to his surprise, that the message was from Xiao Muxue. After hesitating for a moment, he still opened the text.

"Do you also wish to push me onto someone else?"

The content of the message was just one simple sentence, but it conveyed to Qin Fang the deep emotions Xiao Muxue must have felt while sending it.

Silence fell.

Qin Fang fell silent, unsure how to respond.

Logically, he should say yes, which would sever any romantic ties between them, allowing him to focus on Tang Feifei without the worry that he might suddenly derail like a high-speed train...

But emotionally, he found it impossible to do so because he knew he didn't want to, not at all—in fact, when Tang Feifei had said those words, he really felt like punching Lu Xuan to the ground and pounding him into a pulp.

Buzz, buzz, buzz~~

As he didn't reply for a long time, the phone vibrated again with another message from Xiao Muxue. "If you do, I will hate you... for a lifetime!"(To be continued.
