"Let me introduce you. This is Tang Rou, my girlfriend!" Lin Feng casually brought Su Zi to sit beside Tang Rou and made the introduction. "Tang Rou, this is Su Zi, whom I've mentioned to you. She's also a former student from our high school, though she was in Class 18!"

"Lin Feng... you, you actually have a girlfriend?" Su Zi was completely stunned upon hearing Lin Feng's introduction. She looked Tang Rou over a couple of times, a feeling of familiarity washing over her. They had probably seen each other at school before, but they didn't actually know each other.

"Huh, didn't I mention it to you?" Lin Feng paused. After a moment's reflection, he realized he indeed hadn't told Ning Aoxue or Su Zi about Tang Rou. Well, no wonder. I've always treated life at the villa as work, and who constantly talks about their personal affairs while on the job!

"No, absolutely not..." Su Zi gritted her teeth, silently adding in her heart, And here I thought you were actually pursuing Aoxue!

"Oh, well, it's not too late to tell you now..." Lin Feng replied, completely unfazed. He leaned back lazily on the sofa, casually picked up a glass of iced beer, and took a sip. His other hand gently took hold of Tang Rou's left hand.

"Hello, Su Zi, it's a pleasure to meet you..." Tang Rou extended her right hand and shook Su Zi's gently, a very serene smile on her face. She looked every bit the well-bred young lady.

"I remember now! I've seen you before..." After scrutinizing Tang Rou a few more times, Su Zi finally had a flash of realization. "You're Tang Rou, the class beauty from Class 3! No wonder you looked familiar... Back then, quite a few guys in our class had a secret crush on you!"

Tang Rou smiled shyly, lowered her head slightly, and said, "I'm hardly a class beauty. That's just idle talk!"

As for Su Zi mentioning that boys had crushes on her, Tang Rou didn't respond. She merely glanced tenderly at Lin Feng, thinking to herself, I'm Lin Feng's woman now. What's past is past; let it stay that way!

"Well, well, Lin Feng, so you managed to snag the class beauty without a word... This young lady truly had no idea you possessed such formidable abilities!" Su Zi said to Lin Feng, her tone tinged with a hint of playful resentment. "You certainly hid it well!"

"It's not that I deliberately kept it from you," Lin Feng said, shaking his head, unsure why Su Zi was reacting so strongly. "You never asked, did you..."

As a man, if Ning Aoxue and Su Zi didn't ask, why would he be so bored as to volunteer that he already had a girlfriend? Of course, Lin Feng had never lied by telling them he was single; he just hadn't mentioned it. That didn't count as deceit.

Su Zi accepted Lin Feng's explanation, but she still felt unhappy... In this kind of atmosphere, there were two prime solutions for unhappiness: drinking or singing! Su Zi chose the simplest method: she casually grabbed a glass of beer and chugged several mouthfuls.

What's with this girl? Lin Feng wondered. Why is Su Zi suddenly chugging beer like that? I've never seen her drink before!

"Can you even hold your liquor? Why are you drinking so fast?" Lin Feng deftly snatched the beer glass from Su Zi's hand, placed it on the table out of her reach, and said with some concern.

As it turned out, Su Zi really couldn't hold her liquor. Grabbing the glass and chugging was just an impulsive action on her part. After those few gulps, her face immediately turned red. The kind of blush that spread across a girl's cheeks after drinking made her look exceptionally pretty. Su Zi squinted, ignored Lin Feng's question, and asked Tang Rou with a grin, "Tang Rou, tell me, how did you two get together?"

Tang Rou was a very thin-skinned girl. Hearing Su Zi's direct question, a blush couldn't help but creep onto her face. She glanced at Lin Feng before lowering her head slightly and saying, "There's nothing much to tell, really. It was all quite ordinary."

Lin Feng knew why Tang Rou had that expression. It was because, in their relationship, Tang Rou had actually been the one to take the initiative most of the time... Given Tang Rou's reserved nature, how could she possibly tell Su Zi about such embarrassing experiences?

"Heh heh... Looks like Lin Feng keeps you on a really tight leash!" Su Zi still thought Lin Feng was deliberately preventing Tang Rou from talking about his embarrassing moments when he was chasing girls. "Lin Feng, could you please move aside? I want to have a good chat with Tang Rou about us girls' topics!"

With that, Su Zi rather rudely pulled Lin Feng to one side, squeezed in, and sat next to Tang Rou. She linked arms with Tang Rou and started whispering in her ear...

Soon, Tang Rou also started whispering various things into Su Zi's ear...

Lin Feng was a bit baffled at how quickly the two girls had become so close. Looking around the private room, he saw that everyone else was in pairs, except for him. He couldn't help but feel a little dejected...

Damn it! I accidentally played matchmaker, and not only that, Su Zi has even monopolized my own girl! Am I the third wheel now? Lin Feng was utterly speechless. At that moment, he suddenly recalled a joke that wasn't really a joke.

There was a single woman who, on Singles' Day, suddenly received an invitation. Four handsome guys, knowing she didn't have a partner, invited her to dinner... The single woman was initially very conflicted. Four guys and one girl—could her luck have turned, netting her four romantic prospects at once? In the end, the single woman couldn't resist the temptation of handsome men and delicious food and attended the gathering. It turned out they were two gay couples... she was just a third wheel!

Fortunately, Lin Feng wasn't dejected for long. Just as he was about to drown his sorrows in alcohol, Xie Nan suddenly pushed open the door and greeted him, "Brother Feng, if you're free, could you come out for a moment? I have something to tell you!"

Lin Feng knew Xie Nan wouldn't disturb him unless it was important. Seeing there wasn't much for him to do in the current room anyway, he followed Xie Nan into an adjacent private room.

"A'nan, what's up?" Upon entering the room, Lin Feng's gaze was subconsciously drawn to the table. He saw an open box on it, filled with stacks of cash. "This is?"

"This is 350,000!" Xie Nan said to Lin Feng with a smile. "Last time, Brother Feng, you left in a hurry and didn't take the 200,000 cash. Adding the 50,000 dividend from the past few days, that's 250,000 in total. The remaining 100,000 is what I needed to tell you about. Last night, a kid calling himself Zheng Xiaolong suddenly brought 100,000, saying it was for you! I don't know what happened, but judging by the look on his face, he must have offended you, Brother Feng. Anyway, I accepted it on his behalf to pass on to you."

"Zheng Xiaolong?!" Lin Feng smiled, thinking to himself, I didn't expect Zheng Xiaolong to be this sensible! Looks like he was genuinely scared. Oh well, I'll give him some face. Those photos can stay offline for now.
