Chapter 139: Chapter 131: Baby, I Love You So Much~
Xiangti Bay Community, the place where dreams begin.
On Saturday morning, Yu Dong came here again.
"Brother Dong, here to see your friends again? Why don’t you just rent a place from us already? What else is there to look at?"
Liang Mian came over casually, and Yu Dong offered him a cigarette.
"Haha~ Soon, very soon. A few of my classmates are going to rent with me, so I’m just waiting for them."
"Alright then. When you guys get here, I’ll treat you all to noodles. I love hanging out with college students."
"Sounds good. We’ll probably be here for a year. A few of the girls in my class have never rented off-campus before, so they’re worried about safety. Once I convince them, they’ll probably be ready to move in."
The moment Liangzi heard "college girls," his eyes lit up.
"Brother Dong, these female classmates of yours... are any of them single?"
"Two of them are, and they’re quite pretty..."
Liangzi couldn’t hide his grin after hearing that.
"Brother Dong, what’s there to even think about? This place is super safe, the community is well-managed, and... look at me! As long as I’m here, who would dare cause trouble? Bro, I’m not just bragging, I’m an athlete. Taking on two or three thugs is like a game to me. Tell your female classmates not to worry!"
Single college girls! To him, it was like they walked on a cloud of perfume!
"That’s true... And I was willing to befriend you because you seem reliable and friendly."
"Right? Right! Everyone says I’m enthusiastic. Us bros, we get things done!"
"Hmm... How about this? Tomorrow at 7 PM, our group is getting together at Zhuoyue Studio in the city. Why don’t you come too? You can meet them ahead of time."
"Brother Dong, are you serious?" Liangzi looked at Yu Dong in shock. He hadn’t expected Yu Dong to actually be willing to bring him into his circle of college friends.
"We’re bros, so come on! Just be on time... You don’t want to leave a bad impression on the girls."
"I guarantee I’ll be on time!"
"Hahaha~ See you tomorrow."
After saying goodbye to Liangzi, Yu Dong turned and entered the community, the smile on his face gradually fading.
He had thought long and hard about the matter of Liangzi in this life.
Many things can change a person. Perhaps it’s a life-or-death experience, or perhaps it’s meeting the right person. Liangzi’s transformation in the last life had been a good one, and Yu Dong preferred that strong, optimistic version of him.
In the end, he decided to follow the course of his past life... and let Liangzi walk that path once more.
’Survive, Liangzi. This might be a mandatory course on your path to maturity. You will meet your Zihan, and in three months, you will bring six SSRs to the settlement.’
The six people Liangzi would bring with him were all powerhouses, both physically and mentally.
He especially admired Gao Yan.
Liangzi’s mission was to bring the six of them back again.
"By then, I will truly accept you..."
Yu Dong walked into the complex, went straight to Building Three, and found Zhao Wenjie’s apartment.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~
After a while, Zhao Wenjie, who had been gaming until 4 AM the previous night, groggily opened the door. Upon seeing Yu Dong, he seemed to remember something.
"Huh? Yu Tongxue, how did you find my place? Come, come, have a seat inside."
Although he didn’t know how Yu Dong had found his address, Zhao Wenjie was still very hospitable and friendly toward a classmate who was also moving into the Xiangti Bay Community.
"No need, Wen Jie. Let’s go downstairs to talk. I have another friend waiting for us."
"Oh, is it one of the people renting with us? A guy or a girl?"
"A guy."
"Then I won’t bother washing my hair. Let’s go."
With his hair a mess, Zhao Wenjie followed Yu Dong downstairs.
It’s simple between guys. When they say go, they go. No need for pointless chatter.
On the lawn downstairs at Xiangti Bay, Yan Yikai, dressed in sportswear, was dribbling a ball by himself.
It was Saturday, and he had nothing to do.
"Where’s the friend who was with you? I don’t see him."
"He’ll be over in a bit. Wen Jie, let me ask you a question first..."
"Ah, go ahead."
"Is your love for Yang Yi rooted in a dogmatic sense of responsibility, or is it genuine affection?"
"Huh?"
"Don’t answer right away. Think about it carefully... I don’t think you need to wait until *that time* to figure it out."
Seeing how serious Yu Dong was, Zhao Wenjie couldn’t help but ponder the question carefully...
Yu Dong waited patiently for Zhao Wenjie to think, not rushing him.
After a long moment, Zhao Wenjie gave a wry smile. "Love isn’t something you can define so clearly. All I know is that my babe loves me very much, and I love her too."
"Does she really love you?"
"Of course! Last night she went out for karaoke with her friends, and she was still thinking about me in the middle of the night. Not many girlfriends are like that, right?"
Yu Dong glanced at his phone.
[12:00 AM: Babe, I love you so, so much~~~]
[2:00 AM: Babe, you’re the best. I love you most, boohoohoo.]
[5:00 AM: Babe, you’re the only person in the world who’s best to me. I miss you so much.]
Yu Dong: "..."
He looked at the three video clips on his phone. The timestamps matched perfectly.
"Here’s my phone. See for yourself."
Zhao Wenjie: "?"
He took Yu Dong’s phone, confused.
One night. Three times.
Especially the one at 5 AM. The dark-skinned guy had already finished his cigarette, but she was still going...
Zhao Wenjie’s face turned pale. Then... he zoomed in on the phone screen, magnifying the details of Yang Yi’s face until it was a pixelated mess, and still he kept zooming.
"N-no... impossible... This must be fake... My babe is the sweetest girl. It can’t be her. You must have faked this video with AI! Why would you do this?!"
Seeing Zhao Wenjie acting like this infuriated Yu Dong.
"Do you need to catch them in the act and have the filth on your hands to believe it? Wake up, Zhao Wenjie!"
Zhao Wenjie’s lips trembled as he took out his phone and dialed Yang Yi’s number.
"Babe... where are you? Come back... Yes, come back quickly. I have something to ask you..."
Yu Dong shook his head in exasperation. "Zhao Wenjie, are you still not giving up?"
Zhao Wenjie, eyes red, looked at Yu Dong. "How did you get this video?! What’s your relationship with this man?"
"Is my relationship with him important?"
"It is! You must have threatened Yang Yi and forced her to do this! Then you showed it to me on purpose to make me misunderstand her! You’re despicable! I’m going to the police! This is rape!"
"Wow. You’re something else, Zhao Wenjie. Truly invincible."
Yu Dong was genuinely stunned.
He thought that after all this, he could just show Zhao Wenjie the proof and he’d understand. Then, he could smoothly recruit him into the apocalypse squad and they could start preparations.
He never thought someone could delude themselves to this extent!
"But calling the police is useless... It’s obvious you didn’t watch the video carefully."
"In the video footage, her responses are all affirmative, eager, and proactive."
Even with Yu Dong laying out the evidence, Zhao Wenjie said through clenched teeth:
"I won’t believe it until I see Yang Yi in person."
Yu Dong was speechless.
"Fine, fine. I’ll wait with you..."
A short while later, Yang Yi returned, walking unnaturally.
Zhao Wenjie walked over, holding his phone, and forced a smile.
"Babe, these videos... did he threaten you to film them? You were forced, right? Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you..."
When Yang Yi saw the videos, her expression changed drastically. She snatched Zhao Wenjie’s phone and smashed it on the ground.
"Get lost! You psycho!"
"Who sent you this?! Didn’t I tell you to stay home and play games at night? What were you doing out?"
"I can’t believe this. It’s one thing that you’re no good in bed, but I never said anything about it. And now you have the nerve to question me with a video?"
"Yang Weinans are such a turn-off!"
With that, she tossed her head, hailed a cab, and left Xiangti Bay Community.
From start to finish, she offered not a single word of explanation or apology.
The belief that had sustained Zhao Wenjie completely shattered!
He collapsed to the ground, his eyes vacant, his mind flashing through every little moment and all the abnormal incidents from their two years together...
Yang Yi couldn’t even be bothered to lie to him.
"Ah~ So satisfying~"
Yu Dong had finally seen Zhao Wenjie break down. Only a Zhao Wenjie whose heart had been thoroughly broken was a complete Zhao Wenjie.
He had no desire to recruit a cuck onto his team.
Then he waved over to Yan Yikai, who had been pretending to play with his ball while actually listening in with pricked ears.
"Kai, stop eavesdropping. Come sit over here. Your big bro has an even more exciting story to tell you..."
