Chapter 660: Chapter 265: Auspicious Start and the Second-Year Middle Schooler_2
At this moment, Zhou Wang finally had the chance to speak with Shen Yutong, who had been gazing at him quietly for quite some time.
“Are you leaving today?”
Due to the many prying eyes around, Shen Yutong restrained herself from throwing herself into Zhou Wang’s arms. She just asked softly.
“The original plan was to fly out tonight, but now it’s uncertain; it might be tomorrow. Of course, at the latest, it would be tomorrow,” Zhou Wang thought for a moment before answering honestly.
If it weren’t for the unexpected intelligence he received, Zhou Wang would certainly be leaving today, but now, he had decided to visit the Moon Palace to see if he could gain any advantage, as there’s no shame in that, so there might be a delay.
Anyway, he had Xu Wenqian book tickets for both days; it didn’t matter which time he left, as long as it was convenient.
“Zhou Wang, I hope you leave tomorrow…”
Shen Yutong hesitated for a moment, then blushed as she spoke, “That way, tonight, tonight we could…”
Zhou Wang was taken aback, then understood what she meant, and he couldn’t help but laugh, “Silly girl, there’s no need to be so deliberate. There’s no rush, and besides, I’m not that kind of person who can’t wait.”
Of course, what Zhou Wang was thinking was…
Silly girl, I just spent a night with your sister yesterday. If I spend another night with you tonight, what kind of man would that make me?
“But…”
“No buts, just go with the flow. Hurry and get ready. Didn’t they say the first scene is yours? I see the makeup artist has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Zhou Wang glanced at the patient makeup artist standing nearby, who smiled awkwardly at him.
“Okay, I’m heading to the set now.”
Shen Yutong reluctantly glanced at Zhou Wang before preparing to turn and leave.
“By the way, why didn’t your sister come with you?”
It was then that Zhou Wang casually asked.
“My sister said she’s not feeling too well, so I let her rest at the hotel. She seemed like she didn’t sleep well last night,” Shen Yutong explained with a bit of confusion.
After Shen Yutong hurried off, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but shrug. As he expected, Shen Yutong seemed unaware of anything.
Thinking about Shen Yurou, who had both youthfulness and allure, Zhou Wang felt a flutter in his heart. He suddenly remembered the system message he hadn’t checked last night.
He focused his thoughts on the system interface.
…
Ding!
[Character “Shen Yurou” has been recorded into the item “Evelyn’s Desire Manual”]
[Characters in the manual: 2]
[Demon Roulette draw attempts: 1]
…
Seeing this prompt, Zhou Wang was actually quite puzzled.
According to past experiences, if a first encounter is with a fairly high-quality woman, there should be a special reward mechanism, like a “Wish List” or something.
Shen Yurou certainly met the “high-quality” standard, but somehow, there wasn’t a special reward mechanism triggered. Instead, she was recorded into the permanent item obtained from Wang Xiaoxiao that time.
Of course, it’s not like the system completely neglected giving him a reward.
Although the roulette provided by the demons had many valuable items, it just felt somewhat strange.
However, Zhou Wang thought about it and was relieved.
Perhaps it was because although Shen Yurou hadn’t registered her marriage, she was practically already of a married status, or maybe it was because she had used toys, which didn’t meet the system’s definition of “first”?
Regardless, it didn’t seem necessary to overthink it.
The real dissatisfaction Zhou Wang felt was that, deep down, he thought he had a bit of feelings for Shen Yurou, even if it was just a trace of pity or care by association. But being recorded into this item meant the system evaluated it as “desire only”…
This was a slander against him!
This raffle wasn’t urgent. He hadn’t even had the chance to use the “Outlaws’ Beret” he got last time, so he’d just try his luck on the roulette once there was a need later…
“Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou?”
A cautious voice came from beside him, pulling Zhou Wang back to reality.
He turned his head and saw Chen He with a big smile, offering a cigarette to him.
Chen He must have wanted to approach him last night but didn’t find a suitable opportunity. Zhou Wang looked down and saw the cigarette Chen He handed over was a Zhonghua; he shook his head and said, “I’m not used to smoking this kind. I’ll smoke my own.”
Chen He’s smile froze, but after Zhou Wang put his own cigarette in his mouth, and Chen He handed over the lighter, he understood Zhou Wang was simply particular about the cigarette and didn’t have any issue with him personally, so he relaxed.
After lighting their cigarettes, Zhou Wang asked in surprise, “You’re not quitting smoking now?”
“No need for that anymore…”
Chen He laughed dryly, but both of them understood what was meant.
Chen He’s show of “quitting smoking” was originally only because Ji Xiaoxi didn’t like the smell of smoke. Now that his relationship with Ji Xiaoxi was practically just in name, there really was no need for it…
“Did you sleep well last night?”
Zhou Wang asked with a meaningful smile.
“Uh…”
Chen He was initially startled, then remembered the previous unsettling feeling of Zhou Wang being everywhere, so he chuckled, “Thank you, Mr. Zhou. Sister Hong was my childhood goddess, and I never thought I’d experience a taste of her one day.”
“You little devil…”
Zhou Wang pointed at him in amusement, then curiously asked, “What about you and that Sister Yan?”
“I’ve already proposed to terminate my contract with my previous company. Of course, that old woman wouldn’t let me off easily. Damn, there will probably be a lot of hassles afterward.”
Mentioning his former benefactor, Chen He started cursing immediately, “Ah, Mr. Zhou, she still has some influence in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai circle. I’m a bit worried…”
