Liu Jie's friendliness won over my affection for her. If she had viewed Saozi as a love rival and started questioning endlessly, I would've thought of her as petty and dumped her, for good reason. However, Liu Jie's behavior was excellent and I couldn't really pick out any problems with her.

I had to admit, she's quite intelligent. She knew what to ask and what topics to avoid.

"Ah, I've already prepared lunch at home. It's just some simple home cooking, why don't you come along?" Saozi invited her. Jeez, she was bringing her home after what was only their second meeting?

"Sure, sure. I love home-cooked dishes." Liu Jie pleasantly nodded her head.

Saozi had Liu Jie sit at front to chat, so I sat at the back.

Along the way, the two started to gossip.

"Jie, there shouldn't be any other girls who are cuter than you at your school, right?" Saozi asked as the traffic light turned red.

"Eh, not really. I think Meizi-jiejie is much more feminine; there must be too many guys who want to touch them." Liu Jie reached out and squeezed Saozi's bust, then glanced at me.

Ack, I could only smile along. Though I had low-key spent most of my early morning ma.s.saging them into many different shape. By licking and biting, I displayed my abilities to their fullest extent. Saozi had moaned along with my tongue's every movement, though things like these definitely needed to stay secret.

"You don't need to envy me, maybe yours will grow even bigger than mine in two years. Though, your legs are so pale and long, and your skin is so smooth. Feng, you haven't been groping her, have you?" Saozi rubbed Liu Jie's thighs.

I believe that s.h.i.+p has sailed. I've already been on the first hill, and even further in my dreams.

With full contact with Saozi's upper body and intrusion against Liu Jie's lower body, it was really funny for the both of them to suspect me.

I could only smile along. With two beauties touching each other, they were practically testing my self-control. The scene was way too exhilarating.

c.r.a.p, after they finished complimenting each other, the topic turned to me. "You know, Feng brings you up all the time, and he even asked me how to treat girls the way they want to be treated."

"Ahh, no way. He's way too cold, and he's never looked straight at me before." Liu Jie complained. Because she didn't want to make me mad by talking about it with me, she lamented to Saozi instead.

"Hmph, he's just a dunce and afraid to make mistakes. Just be patient, this kid is truly a disappointment. He says your name in his sleep all the time." Saozi's ability in making up stories on the spot was truly amazing.

But her story was full of holes. How did she know that I said Liu Jie's name in my sleep? Was she listening beside me the whole night? What else could this be other than a hilarious joke?

Though when Liu Jie heard her, her cheeks flushed with excitement. She didn't seem to suspect Saozi's words at all; I was sure that if Saozi wasn't right there, she would've kissed me immediately.

To be honest, I didn't know what to do in terms of advancing my relations.h.i.+p with Liu Jie. Since I was indeed a blockhead in the nitty-gritty part of relations.h.i.+ps, Saozi's idle chat appeared to crack the gla.s.s between me and Liu Jie.

"Hehe, I knew it. He's just cold on the outside and hot on the inside." Liu Jie beamed.

She was a little blockhead herself, too. Maybe because she never lacked admirers or met anyone that caught her eye, she had fallen head over heels for me in a fit of dizziness. And she was a prime example of how girls lose all sense of logic while in love.

When we got home, I was surprised to see the rare sight of Tangge cooking. When Liu Jie came in, Tangge immediately greeted her. I was a bit irked; was he about to bring up the matter of money again? He promised Saozi that he wouldn't cause me any trouble.

Liu Jie was quick. She took out the bowls and chopsticks and laid them out on the dinner table, not seeming like an outsider at all.

Soon, the table was full of steaming hot dishes. I sat with Liu Jie on one side, and she kept pinching food for Saozi. However, I was shunted aside.

c.r.a.p, I was such a failure. When Liu Jie b.u.mped into them and we went to the restaurant, it was the first time we had eaten together. Back then, she pretty much didn't stop pinching food for me. Maybe she realized that I wouldn't change my att.i.tude towards her no matter how well she treated me, so she started to do the opposite to try and achieve the same effect.

"Meizi-jiejie, you're so beautiful in your wedding photo. You look like a divine G.o.ddess in it." Liu Jie praised.

Saozi laughed, "That was when I was young."

"You still are. When you came to our school last time, the boys were all betting on whether you were eighteen or twenty." Liu Jie said solemnly.

"That little mouth of yours is just too sweet. I really don't understand how someone down-to-earth as Feng was able to chase you down." Saozi asked curiously.

"I chased him first, and he's not humble at all. When you're not around, he likes to bully me. He even spanked me in front of all of our cla.s.smates." Liu Jie pouted her lips. Oh dear, who knew what she was going to say now.

Back then, I wasn't sure myself whether I could really defeat He Yu. If she had been hurt somehow, there was no way I could face her father.

She described me like a filthy pervert, taking advantage of her in broad daylight. But before Saozi could speak, Tangge started to applaud.

"See, Jie, my cousin here just has a birdbrain in his noggin. When he likes someone, he doesn't know how to express himself, so he wants the whole world to know how true his heart is!" I found that Tangge was really a ma.s.sive pervert himself. It would be a waste of talent if he didn't write a sequel of "The Golden Lotus." *

*The Golden Lotus is a Chinese novel written in the 17th century. Zhuang Feng is pretty much saying that Tangge should go write p*rn.

"Is that so, Feng." Liu Jie raised an eyebrow at me. Tangge kept throwing looks, then started coughing.

"Erm," I replied.

This girl was really getting out of hand. Since she knew that I feared Saozi and Tangge, she was going to expose every little thing.

"See, I know him best. He's been a candid fellow ever since he was young, always blus.h.i.+ng even if he simply held hands with a girl, much less spanking someone. He just wants to prove his feelings towards you." I felt a little awkward at Tangge's "compliments." If he knew what was going on at three in the morning in the bathroom, I wonder if he would faint in anger.

"Mm, I'm fine as long as he doesn't want to bully me." Liu Jie mumbled.

Saozi didn't look happy at the sight of me wolfing down my food. She reached out her foot and nudged me. Since it was summertime, I was wearing shorts. The touch of her little foot against my leg was an indescribable excitement. And because Tangge and Liu Jie were right beside us, it was practically playing with fire.

Maybe Saozi liked the thrill of cuckolding. Tangge was never good to her, and kept thinking of ways to leech off of her. Along with his impotence, he was pretty much a ma.s.sive thorn in the side especially for such a refined woman like her.

My heart thumped beat after beat, and I swallowed hard to distract myself from her enticing foot. It was clear that she wanted me to say something, but I didn't know exactly what.

Liu Jie seemed to take pleasure in my awkward state. However, she thought that I was being scolded, while in reality I was just forced to keep my mouth shut.

Fortunately, Tangge didn't bring up the subject of money. It seemed that he was still keeping true to his word. Though, it wasn't that I wasn't willing to flog a dead horse, it was just that I hadn't quite accepted Liu Jie in my heart yet. I didn't want to owe her anything.

After lunch, Tangge left to go to work. Since there was still a lot of time, Saozi had me go take a nap in my room, promising me a surprise later. Then, she brought Liu Jie into her bedroom.

I got a bit curious watching their suspicious behavior, so I tiptoed over to the room. The door was open  just a crack, and I could clearly hear what they were saying.

"Meizi-jie, this is for you." Liu Jie took out an elegant case from her bag.

"A deluxe skin care kit from Aqua Secret? * This must be worth thousands of yuan, it's too expensive. I can't accept this." Saozi hurriedly tried to reject the gift.

*Random fictional brand.

"Meizi-jie, I didn't buy this. My dad's friends like to send us stuff all the time, and I have way more at home. I can't possibly dream of using it all, so just take it. It's thanks for helping me put makeup on." Liu Jie grinned.

"You're just too nice. Here, come sit down." Saozi's affection for the skin care kit was scrawled all over her face.

"Meizi-jie, isn't this bra s.e.xy? But he can't see it even if I put it on." Liu Jie sounded mournful as she took off her top and revealed her smooth stomach. The circle of black lace around her b.r.e.a.s.t.s could make anyone start to daydream.

"Pshh." Saozi couldn't hold back her chuckle. "My little dunce, the reason why I had you get that kind of underwear wasn't for him to see, but for you."

"For me? What good will that do?" Liu Jie pursed her lips.

"See, you don't understand." Saozi shook her head. Liu Jie looked thirsty for new knowledge.

"Everyone has two sides to them. For example, no matter if you're at school or your house, you're always a little princess and loved by everyone. But for Feng, you reveal your insecure side. The very fact that you called me to ask how could you attract his attention demonstrates that you don't know what to do and you don't have a lot of confidence. I wanted you to buy lingerie so you could look in the mirror and admire your own body. Over time, you will notice that it's impossible to hide your own beauty, much less to the opposite s.e.x." Saozi explained as she applied eyeliner onto Liu Jie's face.

"So that's how it is?" Liu Jie seemed a bit dazed.

"Mm, and that kid only seems apathetic on the outside. In reality, he's quite the pervert at heart." Saozi commented. Though, she did have the right to say that; after all, I did j.i.z.z all over her underwear.

"What's more, he always underestimates himself. Boys from the countryside all have wariness rooted in their hearts. They tend to walk around with their tail between their legs." Saozi started to thoroughly psychoa.n.a.lyze me.

"No way, he acts really lofty in school. He's pretty much number one in Year Three and a basketball G.o.d right now, and he can have any girl he wants." Liu Jie didn't seem to believe her.

"Yes, that perfectly demonstrates his ambition and desire. He wants to prove that he's not below the city kids. But here's my question, with all of those admirers, is he two-timing you with any of them?" Saozi was rather direct.

Liu Jie immediately shook her head. "Nope, his morals are fairly upright. I'm the only girl by his side. The other girls know that I'm formidable, so they could never dare to come close."

"Upright morals? Tch, Saozi's not afraid to tell you this. Every night, he curls up in his blankets and watches j.a.panese AVs. If he would rather f*p alone rather than hook up with his admirers, what does that mean?" Saozi's words were frightening. When she had bought a phone for me last time, she loaded a lot of p*rn into it. Even when I looked through them out of boredom, I never jacked off to any of them before. I've been steadily drained throughout the past few days anyway, and I wasn't close to recovering.

"He's very focused on romance." Liu Jie responded.

"Focused? Bullc.r.a.p, he watches those videos with one guy and lots of girls all the time. That just shows how thirsty he is for women, and why he hasn't done anything with anyone yet. He's unconfident because he thinks that since he's from the countryside, the city girls would regard him as below them and reject him; this includes you, too." Saozi exposed another shocking piece of information. But this just made me feel nothing but awkwardness. Before meeting her, I never knew that I could watch p*rn on a phone. How could she slander me like this?

"I've never held any contempt for him before. Rather, I really admire his honesty and bravery. He's got a s.h.i.+ne that doesn't need anything to support it." Liu Jie stated.

"Sure, you like him, but he doesn't know that yet. Most boys and girls have a sense of compet.i.tiveness in their first relations.h.i.+ps, and some are like wild beasts when it comes to initiative. However, he's like an old monk settling down." Saozi's a.n.a.logy was fairly accurate.

"Yeah, when I confessed to him, he rejected me. I was crying so much that day, I wanted to find someone to go beat him up." Liu Jie lamented.

"Haha, it's no wonder he would reject you. If you were a normal girl that lacked good looks and a good family background, but suddenly a gaofushuai* said that he liked you, how would you react?" Saozi tried to expand Liu Jie's perspective.

*gaofushuai, or 高富帅, is a term for men who are tall, rich, and handsome. The tall part is because most men in China tend to not be over 170 cm (five foot seven). This is mostly because the great majority of families in 20th century China didn't have enough to eat. The new generations (90s and onwards), however, are picking up quick.

"I would run and hide from him, as far away as possible. He definitely made a bet with a friend or something to play with my feelings." Liu Jie replied without hesitation.

"Exactly. You're the school's esteemed baifumei*. When you suddenly confessed to him like that, he must also have guessed that you might have been involved in some sort of sick joke or were just messing with him. He might have even taken offense and could still be conflicted over whether he's good enough for you. There's even a saying: One's only crime was to carry a jade*." Saozi scoffed.

*This is a Chinese proverb that basically means, sometimes it feels like someone committed a crime when they get something that's really good. If your friend won the lottery of a bajillion dollars, people would naturally sort of resent them, even though the friend is innocent and literally did nothing but win a bajillion dollars.

I had no words. It was clearly because I had Saozi in my heart that I was indifferent towards Liu Jie. But somehow, her explanation sounded quite plausible to Liu Jie or anyone else who listened.

"Ah, I understand now! Why didn't I think of this before? I thought that he was trying to embarra.s.s me, and I almost gave up back then." Liu Jie smiled and started to laugh.

"It's good that you didn't. Feng is a good investment with a lot of potential, so cherish him well." Saozi reminded.

"Yeah, my dad's complimented him before too. He said that he's got guts and a backbone, and would definitely be successful when he enters society. Even if he goes down a dirty path, he would still be a formidable individual." Liu Jie continued.

I never would have thought that Liu Jie's father would think so highly of me. If so, it was hardly surprising that he would be willing to loan Tangge money if I fell in with Liu Jie. Since she was pretty much head over heels for me, the decision landed squarely on my shoulders.

In short, the five hundred thousand was just to test my integrity and to pay for his daughter's groom. The world of money was truly something that I could not understand.
