Campus Ace Girl

It’s late at night, Lin Shuang is asleep, but the person who remains awake finds his thoughts becoming active... Those tiny, intricate memories surround him like a net, making it hard to breathe, yet he’s not resisting it...

One night, he just sat there, not daring to go to her bedroom, just guarding like this.

Perhaps in this lifetime, the night he guards her will be just this one night.

In the morning, Lin Shuang woke up, she opened her eyes, looked at the dress on her body, and after a moment of surprise, she quietly smiled... Then she sat up, tied her hair up, got out of bed, and walked barefoot to the living room.

Wang Kegui was still there, sitting on the sofa with his head down, reading a magazine.

Lin Shuang suddenly froze, quietly watching him, saying nothing.

In the end, it was Wang Kegui who noticed her first and looked at her quietly for a long moment. Lin Shuang smiled: "You brought me back?"

He responded softly: "You drank too much."

After saying that, he got up to pour her a glass of plain water, and when he handed it to her, she looked lost in thought. Wang Kegui lightly tapped the table in front of her: "Drink some water, does your head still hurt now?"

Lin Shuang shook her head: "It’s fine, the alcohol last night wasn’t that strong."

Wang Kegui just looked at her, while she drank water and smiled: "What’s the matter, looking at me like that?"

He hesitated a moment before saying: "Do you usually have to drink a lot during social gatherings?"

Lin Shuang held the cup, thought for a moment: "It depends on the other party. If they’re easy to talk to, I’ll say a few nice words and drink less. If they’re difficult, you have no choice but to drink, whether you can handle it or not, you have to give them face."

She said it lightly, without any intention of playing the victim, but Wang Kegui felt distressed.

He looked at Lin Shuang, his voice hoarse beyond words: "Have you ever thought about getting married, finding a good man, then you wouldn’t have to endure such hardships."

Lin Shuang was indifferent: "Is there such a good thing?"

She raised her eyebrows: "Tell me, where is such a good man, I’ll go and pick him up immediately."

After speaking, she didn’t care and treated it as a joke, continuing to finish the half glass of water.

Her attitude made Wang Kegui hold back all the words he wanted to say, he had to admit that the Lin Shuang before him was completely different from the Lin Shuang he once knew. He cared about her and wanted to be good to her, but she... maybe she didn’t need it.

But, he still wanted to compensate her.

He hadn’t said it yet when suddenly the hotel room door was flung open, and the person who stormed in left him stunned.

It was Gu Xiufen.

Gu Xiufen saw Wang Kegui, clearly surprised for a moment, then she sneered: "The boss said you were in a meeting, it seems you really are having a meeting with Miss Lin."

Lin Shuang remained calm: "Mr. Wang, it seems you have family matters to attend to, why don’t you both find another place to discuss?"

Wang Kegui was naturally eager for that, he and Lin Shuang had nothing between them, it was purely reminiscing.

But he also knew Gu Xiufen’s character, so he explained: "Manager Lin got drunk, and I brought her back."

After saying that, he intended to leave with Gu Xiufen, implying that they should speak at home. But Gu Xiufen wouldn’t comply.

She stared at Lin Shuang: "Miss Lin, do you have anything you’d like to say to me?"

Lin Shuang leaned back on the sofa, smiling slightly: "I drank too much last night, I’m truly sorry. Oh, and Vice President Wang, the three of us drank together, it wasn’t in private, Mrs. Wang shouldn’t misunderstand."

Gu Xiufen gazed at that face seemingly impervious to age, that captivating charm, the casual allure of the posture, a fire of rage burned within her, and her reason was gone.

She stepped forward and with a raised hand, delivered a slap: "Whether there’s a misunderstanding, Miss Lin knows best."

With this slap, Lin Shuang didn’t dodge, Wang Kegui hadn’t expected it, but caught Gu Xiufen’s arm firmly as the second slap fell: "What are you doing?"

"What am I doing?" Gu Xiufen’s eyes were red, "My husband didn’t come home all night, spent the night in a hotel with another woman, and you ask me what I’m doing? Is slapping her excessive?"

Then she looked at Lin Shuang, speaking harshly: "Sounds nice to call her a manager, not so nice, she’s just selling, just sleeping with people for projects. Precious You might not want to say this, but I’m comfortable with it."

She looked at her husband: "Wang Kegui, make it clear, she’s not your first love anymore, who knows how many men she’s been with."

As soon as she finished speaking, she received a solid slap across her face.

Gu Xiufen froze: ’You hit me?’

Wang Kegui’s hand still hurt, his voice was hoarse: "Come back with me immediately."

"I’m not going back unless this woman leaves now. I want her to leave Jiangcheng immediately." Gu Xiufen continued to throw a tantrum...

Wang Kegui was genuinely angry, "Gu Xiufen, are you being reasonable, do you think everyone is like you?"

Gu Xiufen looked at his angry face and suddenly laughed: "Feeling distressed, you feel bad because I’m talking about her, right? But the truth’s the truth, there are plenty of women like her. Look at the boss, taking advantage of his position, how many regional managers has he slept with, otherwise why do you think these women are so pretty?"

Wang Kegui still maintained his calm gaze at her, for a long while, he spoke hoarsely: "Gu Xiufen, do you really want to continue talking like this?"

"You think I won’t dare?" Gu Xiufen clutched onto it, naturally refusing to back down.

Wang Kegui said softly: ’Do you believe, today you can be Mrs. Wang, but tomorrow it could be someone else being Mrs. Wang, don’t go overboard.’

After he finished speaking, Gu Xiufen was dumbfounded, unable to react for quite a while.

Just then, Wang Kefu arrived, coincidentally catching these words. Seeing the situation inside, there’s nothing unclear about it, so he used his usual tactic, holding Gu Xiufen’s shoulders, both placating and coaxing: "Sister-in-law, let’s talk properly, talk properly. You see, even second brother’s honest nature has been provoked by you, this doesn’t bode well for anyone. Besides, about last night, I can guarantee 120% that they’re innocent, they haven’t done anything."

Gu Xiufen sneered: "Really, you were keeping watch by the bedside all night?"

"Words can’t be said so unpleasantly. If you don’t trust me, trust Wang Kegui’s character, right? Every day, he goes home early to be with his wife and kids. If you continue to doubt him like this, it truly will damage your marital relationship. Think about it, now the old folks have opinions about you, who’s been supporting you? If this gets big, I don’t see it ending well."

As he spoke, he dragged Gu Xiufen out.

Once outside, Gu Xiufen slapped Wang Kefu: "What’s your intention in locking them inside? Is there anyone like you?"
