Chapter 283
Watching Hu Yuying hesitate, the two of them exchanged words, coaxing her into not wanting to go back.
"Well, I’m going to call Long Ge then."
Hu Yuying knew that if she didn’t say anything, Long Ge would wait for her without rest, worrying all the while.
Long Aotian had just walked a short distance when he received Hu Yuying's message.
After hearing that she wouldn’t be going home tonight, he let out a small sigh and could only reply, "Okay."
"Yes~"
Li Qingxue and Lin Wanning exchanged a high-five, whispering in excitement.
Seeing their expressions, Hu Yuying couldn’t help but say, "I’m starting to regret this."
"Regret is useless, you know."
"Tonight, you belong to us. Let go of your regrets and stop struggling."
With three people in two bathtubs, the joy was abundant.
At least in the absence of Long Aotian, the friendship among the three was enviable.
After a refreshing bath, they arrived at the hotel that Lin Wanning and Li Qingxue had booked in advance.
A large bed was enough to accommodate three beautiful girls.
After shedding her clothes, Hu Yuying was the first to jump onto the bed, lying in the middle. She tossed her long hair over her shoulder and smiled brightly at Li Qingxue and Lin Wanning, beckoning them to come and lean against her.
The feeling of sleeping alone versus sleeping with others was completely different.
This psychological sensation was hard to articulate, but she loved it.
Feeling the two of them leaning against her shoulders, Hu Yuying wrapped one arm around each of them, feeling incredibly happy.
"See? Sleeping with us is way better than sleeping with Long Aotian."
It was different; sleeping with Long Ge had its own kind of beauty, but Hu Yuying wouldn’t say that out loud. Otherwise, he would definitely start asking her all sorts of questions, which would be so embarrassing...
Suddenly, a familiar fragrance wafted into her nostrils. Hu Yuying sniffed and turned to look at Lin Wanning, who was lying on her right.
Sensing Hu Yuying's gaze, Lin Wanning tilted her little face up and rubbed against Hu Yuying's neck. "What’s up, Ah Ying? Do you want some snacks? I’ll get you some."
As Lin Wanning drew closer, the subtle fragrance of her body intensified.
She hadn’t noticed it before, but now, with Lin Wanning so close, the faint scent enveloped her.
Hu Yuying felt a bit dazed and gently shook her head. "Could you get me a glass of water...?"
"My dear sister, just wait for me!" Lin Wanning affectionately nudged Hu Yuying's cheek with her nose before getting up to pour water.
The cup was placed at Hu Yuying's lips, and with her other hand, Lin Wanning lifted Hu Yuying's chin. "Let me feed you."
Looking at Lin Wanning, who was wholeheartedly caring for her, Hu Yuying chuckled softly. "You’re not being very obedient, little sister."

**Chapter 345: Did Long Ge Do Something Wrong?**
After a night of playful antics, Hu Yuying woke up early, glancing at Li Qingxue, who was sleeping soundly with her arms around Hu Yuying's waist, and Lin Wanning, who was nestled in her embrace. She couldn’t help but smile.
But her gaze lingered more on Lin Wanning.
She leaned in closer, her breath brushing against Lin Wanning, whose familiar scent was still there.
As she looked at her, her feelings grew complex. Taking a deep breath, she got up, dressed, and went downstairs to buy two breakfasts, placing them on the table before turning to leave the hotel.
She hadn’t forgotten that Long Ge had something to tell her.
The morning was damp and particularly chilly. Hu Yuying hailed a taxi and soon returned to the siheyuan.
Using her key, she quietly opened the door and pushed open the bedroom door, stepping into the small room.
On the bed, Long Aotian, who was still asleep, stirred at the sound of the door opening and blinked his eyes open, still groggy.
Seeing the little girl, he sleepily reached out his hand, burrowing into her embrace. "You’re back. Did you miss me?"
Hu Yuying chuckled at Long Ge, gently ruffling his hair. "Of course I missed you. How could I not?"
Hearing this, Long Aotian smiled and pulled Hu Yuying onto the bed. "Your body is so cold; let Long Ge warm you up."
Hu Yuying couldn’t help but laugh, unable to resist his playful antics even in his sleepy state.
Still, she lifted the covers and snuggled into the warmth of the bed.
Feeling her cold feet cradled in his warm hands, Hu Yuying relaxed completely.
"Didn’t you say you had something to tell me when I got back?" she asked.
At her words, Hu Yuying noticed Long Aotian’s hands stiffen for a moment.
At this point, he didn’t know how to say it.
He wanted to get up, but the little girl gently held him in place, her voice soft. "Did Long Ge do something wrong?"
Recalling what Long Ge had said before, about how if she ever found out he had done something bad...
He had said, "You should be a little greedy and squeeze me dry..."
At her words, Long Aotian became agitated, tightly wrapping his arms around her waist.
He couldn’t bear to look into Hu Yuying’s eyes, fearing the disappointment he might see there, and even more afraid that she would ignore him.
Hu Yuying allowed Long Aotian to hold her, feeling his trembling arms around her. After a long moment, she gently asked, "Is it because of Lin Wanning?"
Body scent is different from perfume.
Perfume, as an external substance, will leave a trace on the body after contact.
But body scent is different; unless there’s particularly close contact, it’s not easily picked up.
The faint fragrance she had caught from Long Ge on Wednesday was the unique scent of Lin Wanning after she had undressed the night before.
Long Aotian knelt in front of Hu Yuying, nervously grasping her hands. "I’ve been unsure how to tell you about this."
"Why didn’t you choose to keep it from me? Were you going to confess to Ah Ying yesterday?"
"I realized I couldn’t keep hiding it from you. I really couldn’t." He said this, urgently pulling the little girl into his embrace. "I’m sorry, I’m so sorry."
"I want to know, was it Long Ge who initiated it?"
Long Aotian froze for a moment, then silently nodded.
Lin Wanning had given everything; she had cast aside all, humble as dust, and he couldn’t bring himself to push her away...
"You’re lying."
With that, she tried to get up.
"Don’t go." Long Aotian had anticipated that after confessing, the little girl would be angry with him, but now that it had come to this, he couldn’t let go.
Only now did he realize how bad and shameless he truly was. He had done something wrong, yet he still didn’t want to let go.
Seeing Long Aotian’s eyes, red and bloodshot, pleading with her not to leave, Hu Yuying sighed softly.
"Can you scold me a little? Please don’t ignore me..."
Her hand gently caressed Long Aotian’s cheek. This was her Long Ge, the one who had shown her kindness from the very first moment they met.
He stood by her side when she was bullied, supporting her.
He taught her to change little by little, to grow, to transform, and he had shown her so many things.
He was so good to her.
From the first moment she saw this mature yet laid-back boy who pulled her out of darkness, Hu Yuying knew that someone like her didn’t deserve such sudden kindness, yet her heart longed for it...
It was undeniable that she liked Long Aotian.
Did Long Ge like her? From everything that had happened until now, from his tight grip on her, she could feel his pain and reluctance. He—also liked her.
Gently wiping away the tears at the corners of his eyes, she then slid her hand to the back of his head and gave it a light pat.
After doing all this, she looked at the hands that Long Aotian was still tightly holding and the waist he was gripping.
She gently struggled a bit. "Long Ge, loosen up a little."
Long Aotian instinctively shook his head. "No."
With no other choice, Hu Yuying took out her phone and, in front of Long Aotian, dialed Lin Wanning’s number.
The call connected quickly.
Hu Yuying spoke in a flat tone, "Come to the house."
Then she hung up.
On the other end, Lin Wanning, still groggy, felt as if a bomb had just exploded in her heart upon hearing Hu Yuying’s words.
She instantly woke up, no longer feeling the slightest bit of sleepiness.
Her emotions were a tangled mess as she hugged her knees, her body trembling uncontrollably. Tears slipped silently through her fingers, and the last line of defense in her heart finally crumbled today.
She didn’t dare make a sound, quietly getting dressed. Glancing at the two breakfasts on the table, tears continued to flow, falling onto the back of her hand.
