Chapter 149 - 104: Lu Lin, Have You Ever Been Touched?_2

It wasn’t until now that I suddenly realized, back in October 2013, there indeed was an opportunity blowing in the wind. At that time, Virtual Coin was 200 dollars apiece; by November, Virtual Coin suddenly rose to 1300 dollars—a return of six and a half times. If truth be told, in that month alone, perhaps not even stocks rose as fast as that.

If Zhou Yuwen hadn’t known, it might have just passed by, but such a rare chance to make money, it was truly too pitiful to miss.

Zhou Yuwen now had one million and four hundred thousand in hand; the BMW M4 was a new cash purchase, worth at least six hundred thousand when mortgaged. Thus, Zhou Yuwen would have a capital of two million, which after a month could turn into thirteen million.

With that thirteen million, Zhou Yuwen could live comfortably for a good while. But, as he told Su Qing, trading Virtual Coin wasn’t legal in the country. If Zhou Yuwen wanted to trade Virtual Coin, he’d have to make a trip to Hong Kong. He couldn’t get involved in illegal activities; he needed to make money within the bounds of the law.

So Zhou Yuwen hurried with the paperwork, and then there were things like mortgaging his car, which would all take a few days. Finally, it was decided that he would fly to Hong Kong on the seventh of October.

And now, it had just barely turned the fifth of October. After Zhou Yuwen had busied himself with all kinds of things, a sense of emptiness suddenly rose in his heart.

One month after his rebirth, he lived in a big house and drove a luxury car.

But why wasn’t I satisfied?

In the end, it must be about women.

A few nights ago, Zhou Yuwen had kissed and touched Zheng Yanyan all over. At that moment, he truly felt like there was a beast trapped inside his body, always seeming on the verge of bursting out. But when it mattered most, Zheng Yanyan was unwilling to give in to him. She even said she wanted to wait another three months.

Big sister, who can wait three months? If only I’d known, I wouldn’t have started dating Zheng Yanyan.

Waiting was impossible.

Now Zhou Yuwen lay alone in the big house, idly scrolling through his phone. Since Zheng Yanyan had returned home, she rarely chatted with him. At most, they’d exchange a few words in the evening, then she’d talk about where she’d been that day. Her social media updates were frequent, usually out shopping with a few close high school girlfriends.

She even sent him photos.

She was truly something. Going out for afternoon tea with girlfriends and sneakily placing her phone under the table to take pictures of her friend’s long legs under a tight skirt to show Zhou Yuwen.

Then she’d say, "Baby, look, this is my girlfriend. Do you think her legs are long? Beautiful, huh?"

Zhou Yuwen replied, "Move your camera closer."

"Screw off (angry)!!!"

Zhou Yuwen curled his lips at the message, continuing, "That’s the same as sharing pics but no torrent seed."

This made Zheng Yanyan cover her mouth and laugh.

They didn’t chat much over the break, but Yuwen did talk to Su Qing quite a bit more.

Su Qing kept saying she wanted to visit Zhou Yuwen’s house.

Zhou Yuwen said, "Then come over!"

"Do you want me to come?"

"Whether you come or not makes no difference to me."

Zhou Yuwen had already come to terms with it. If Su Qing really cared that much, then he’d just admit it. Yes, I’ve been reborn, what can you do about it?

I’m already dating Zheng Yanyan, do you really want to break us up?

So Zhou Yuwen just didn’t care.

Sigh, mainly because I’m truly bored now. These past five days I met up with Li Shiqi twice. Li Shiqi invited me for a meal at her cafeteria and treated me. But it was just a meal. Oh, and Li Siqi bought me a bag of fruit, saying that if I got a sore throat, I should eat more fruit.

There wasn’t much else going on.

Bored to death on the big bed, Zhou Yuwen flipped through his chat list to see if he could find a girl to chat with. But as he flipped through, he came across Lu Lin further down the list.

A few days ago, Lu Lin had sent him a message, "Aren’t you bored with Zheng Yanyan going back home?"

Zhou Yuwen hadn’t yet responded.

Well, speaking of it, I’m indeed a bit bored.

Should I actually go find Lu Lin?

Let’s rewind to the first of October. After sending the message to Zhou Yuwen, Lu Lin went to eat instant noodles. It was October, the time of the ’Indian summer’, and the weather was still scorching hot.

Lu Lin was too lazy to go to the cafeteria and simply prepared a bowl of braised beef noodles for herself.

After eating, she picked up her phone to see if Zhou Yuwen had messaged her.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t.

Lu Lin felt a bit disappointed, but also found it to be expected. Every day she would nag him for money or talk about sleeping with him—of course, he would find it strange to bother with her.

After disposing of the noodle soup in the toilet and flushing it away, Lu Lin habitually reached for the cigarette box on the table, drawing out a long, thin menthol cigarette.

She went to the balcony.

As the school had started its holidays, it suddenly grew quiet. There was a small square in front of the girls’ dormitory, usually bustling with people, but today it was exceptionally quiet, with only a couple sitting under a tree talking about love.

The boy had his arms around the girl, his hand placed on her thigh, and seeing she wasn’t resisting, his hand slid upwards.

Since she was in her dormitory, Lu Lin didn’t wear any pants, just a simple black tank top. From behind, her frame seemed to have thinned, but those legs were surely slender, even, and straight.

She stood on the balcony, leaning against the railing and silently smoked.
