Chapter 638 - 379: Psychological Counseling

"What’s going on?"

When the meal was ready, Wu Wenyue returned, not for the trivial task of trampling on Li Peifeng like the other two, but to support Xu Manning.

After Huang Tianxuan revealed her intimate affairs with Li Peifeng, Xu Manning became furious, her anger growing with her thoughts, her petty nature naturally demanding revenge.

Yet, Miss Xu was aware that she might be too weak to confront Huang Tianxuan alone, so she called upon Wu Wenyue to join forces in counterattack...

"Is this the reason? I was just about to start a meeting."

Listening to Xu Manning’s explanation, Wu Wenyue glanced at her reproachfully, feeling that it was wise not to disclose the stories of Li Peifeng and He Yimeng to her.

Had she told Xu Manning the truth, given her personality, she would likely tear into He Yimeng, at least attempting to terminate the contract under the guise of being one of the three bosses, leading to a scenario where their white-haired business and romance falter, amidst furious chaos publicly humiliating them all...

Xu Manning widened her eyes in disbelief, more irate, her tears on the verge of falling: "Are you wearing the same pants as Huang Tianxuan too?"

Wu Wenyue furrowed her brow slightly: "Try to lighten up, don’t stress yourself out, or else it’s easy to get breast cancer."

"How can I lighten up?"

"If you want to get by, over the head..."

Wu Wenyue adeptly recited the lines He Yimeng had previously shared, but stopped midway seeing Xu Manning’s expression worsen, she promptly rephrased: "Ultimately, isn’t it just the two of them sleeping together? Honestly, in my mind, they were already involved when we first had a shared dream. There was that time when the four of us had dinner and got drunk, Xiaofeng finished with us and went to Huang Tianxuan’s room... Not long ago, you and I discussed this, didn’t you accept Tianxuan? Why are you angry now?"

Xu Manning pursed her lips: "I can’t stand Huang Danai’s arrogant demeanor, like a replica of Zhao Qingge, and she’s so brazen. My house, this is our home. Peifeng accompanies her out for a meal, chatting and laughing, while we sneak around like mice in the bedroom?"

It’s clearly you who dragged me to the bedroom, who forced you to hide...

Wu Wenyue sighed: "So, what do you plan to do? Hit her? Or kick her out?"

"Beat her up and then kick her out!"

"Violence won’t solve the problem..."

Before the conversation could finish, the door opened, Li Peifeng poked his head in and said: "Let’s chat outside, everyone discuss together how to solve...um, solve the housing issue."

In essence, it comes down to who’s there on odd and even days, the three girls can grudgingly accept this arrangement, but apart from the duo of Wu and Xu, the encounters are far from harmonious, especially when Li Peifeng is present.

Li could only endure a little hardship, moving periodically, alternating between cohabitation with the girls.

This proposal wasn’t met with much objection, but the execution plan was debated, Li Peifeng suggested spending a month with each before rotating.

While it seemed fair, because Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning lived together, they believed Li Peifeng should stay in Jintian City for two months, which triggered a minor quarrel.

"We agreed on a month with each, why should our two months be shortened just because I live with Yueyue?"

"A very dumb concept swap... Xiaofeng you decide, I don’t mind."

Huang Tianxuan strategically withdrew, Wu Wenyue surprisingly conceded: "No need for two months, how about a month and a half."

At a disadvantage facing two opponents, Huang Tianxuan kicked Li Peifeng under the table, commanding: "You, nonsense!"

Like haggling at a market stall, were they truly fighting over the half-month?

No, they were vying for my affection!

Li Peifeng mused, boastfully proclaiming: "Regarding whether I stay with you all for thirty days or several days, the exact time doesn’t need to be set in stone, it actually depends on your behavior. If any of you keep annoying me or bickering with me, I might just leave immediately after moving in..."

"Get lost, leave now!"

"Wenyue, do you have a rolling pin at your place? Yes, like the one Old Li used to smack his son before."

After a series of somewhat unfriendly negotiations, everyone settled on a new plan.

Overall, the routine remained unchanged, still a month per round, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning’s time was not extended.

However, before Li Peifeng’s first rotation, he would spend a month and a half with Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning in Jintian City.

After the month and a half, he would move to Huang Tianxuan’s home, officially starting the monthly accompaniment.

Discussions to resume whenever disagreements arise.

Yet, Huang Tianxuan was somewhat dissatisfied with this plan, upon closer scrutiny, it was evident Li Peifeng did show favoritism towards Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning, requiring a month and a half before he could cohabit with her, hence Huang Tianxuan reluctantly accepted, with inevitable feelings of dismay and resentment, even a tinge of anguish...

[Ever since I met this fool who easily triggers my depression again, I’ve found that everything in the world seems to make me feel wronged.]

[Sister, rest assured, although I can’t stay at your place during this time, I can visit you during the day...]

"Okay, I’ll definitely come to the shoot tomorrow, but I might have other things to handle in the morning... Shoot in the afternoon? That’s good!"
