106: Chapter 106 Becoming Best Friends
There is an unwritten rule among girls.
After two girls complain about someone else together, they become very close friends.
Ye Shuangshuang and Li Tong are exactly like that right now.
The two of them have been complaining about Guan Zhixue for a long time.
Even Lin Yi, who was sitting nearby, couldn't get a word in.
Lin Yi watched them with their impassioned, righteous indignation, and felt a wave of unease.
These two girls are truly terrifying... They complained for ages without repeating a single sentence...
Li Tong had practically dissected Guan Zhixue inside and out, covering all her flaws and bizarre antics.
Ye Shuangshuang, meanwhile, analyzed Guan Zhixue's temper, personality, and psychological state with crystal clarity based on what Li Tong was saying.
Lin Yi was dumbfounded.
The key point is... isn't she my ex-girlfriend? When it comes down to it, I'm the victim here...
He, the original victim, hadn't even voiced his opinion yet, but these two outsiders had already finished venting everything that could possibly be complained about.
Even the psychological analysis of Guan Zhixue was an eye-opener for Lin Yi.
"So that's what Guan Zhixue was thinking..."
Lin Yi mused silently to himself.
It seems that women really do understand women better...
"Tongtong, you should just stay here from now on. It's usually just me as the only girl here, and it's quite lonely."
"That stick-in-the-mud Lin Yi only knows how to play games when he's free; it's so boring."
"If you move in, at least there'll be someone to keep me company!"
Judging by her tone, Ye Shuangshuang seemed to have already accepted Li Tong as a friend.
"Shuangshuang, if I move in... wouldn't that be inconvenient?"
Li Tong naturally wanted to move in.
But it looked like Ye Shuangshuang and Lin Yi had already reached that stage.
Plus, Ye Shuangshuang had moved in first; Li Tong understood the principle of first come, first served.
Upon hearing Li Tong's concern, Ye Shuangshuang waved her hand dismissively.
"What could possibly be inconvenient?"
"If you come, I'll actually have it easier..."
"Saves me from being... worn out every single day..."
Ye Shuangshuang was quite open-minded about it.
The main thing was that Lin Yi had too much stamina.
Ye Shuangshuang's petite frame really couldn't handle it.
Moreover, looking at the way Li Tong gazed at Lin Yi, and then at her extremely unnatural gait,
Ye Shuangshuang had long since understood everything between them.
Instead of letting Lin Yi secretly date Li Tong behind her back in the future, it was better to let them be open and aboveboard right under her nose.
At least this way, she could ensure Lin Yi wouldn't have to hide anything from her.
Her sense of insecurity could also be relatively reduced.
Li Tong understood the subtext of Ye Shuangshuang's words, and her face turned bright red.
"Shuangshuang... what are you saying..."
Ye Shuangshuang smiled and grabbed Li Tong's hand.
"Let's go, I'll take you upstairs to pick out a guest room first."
"Anyway, Lin Yi has plenty of guest rooms here..."
After saying that, Ye Shuangshuang shot Lin Yi a charming, coquettish glance.
Lin Yi pursed his lips in speechlessness.
He thought to himself, this little vinegar jar... is she never going to let this go?
In the evening, the three of them didn't feel like going out for dinner, so Lin Yi called Yang Mengjiao and had her send over a table full of dishes from Ziyun Building.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, Li Tong's eyes went wide.
"Are we three eating all these dishes... won't it be a bit too wasteful..."
Li Tong didn't yet know that Lin Yi was the owner of Ziyun Building.
However, she had heard of Ziyun Building.
She only knew it was a mysterious and luxurious hotel.
Back when they had a birthday party at Lin Yi's house, Lin Yi spent over a hundred thousand on a delivery order from Nanling Hotel.
These delicacies from Ziyun Building today... it looked like the price was more than double that of Nanling Hotel...
"How could it be wasteful? You're exhausted today, you need to eat more to replenish your energy!"
Ye Shuangshuang mischievously picked up a large abalone for Li Tong.
Seeing this, Lin Yi also peeled a large lobster claw and placed it in front of Ye Shuangshuang.
"Alright, Shuangshuang, you should eat more too; you haven't had it easy these past few days either!"
Hearing Lin Yi's teasing, Ye Shuangshuang cast him a shy, coquettish glare.
Afterward, Lin Yi explained to Li Tong.
"Tongtong, eat without worry; don't feel bad about my money."
"Ziyun Building is my property. I only pay cost price for these, so it's not expensive at all."
Upon hearing this, Li Tong's mouth dropped open in surprise.
She looked at Lin Yi in disbelief, then at Ye Shuangshuang, seemingly wanting to verify it with her.
Ye Shuangshuang nodded silently, then picked up the lobster claw Lin Yi had just handed her and started eating.
Li Tong's heart was in turmoil with shock.
Lin Yi was actually the owner of Ziyun Building?
My god... no wonder he's so rich!
The peers around her were still struggling with part-time jobs.
Either handing out flyers or working at milk tea shops.
They were content just earning over a hundred yuan a day.
But Lin Yi had already become a boss!
And the boss of Ziyun Building at that!
This was a height that many people couldn't reach even after struggling for a lifetime!
No, maybe not even in several lifetimes!
Recalling the scene of their intimate interaction this afternoon, Li Tong felt as if she had won the grand prize.
To think that she had... with such an outstanding man...
Li Tong felt a sense of happiness, as if she had been favored by the God of Fortune.
She also determined that Lin Yi was the person she wanted to follow for the rest of her life.
Women admire strength.
After learning of Lin Yi's status, her love for him grew uncontrollably.
After the meal, Li Tong and Ye Shuangshuang cleaned the house thoroughly.
It didn't require Lin Yi to lift a finger.
"Tongtong, just use my skincare products for the next few days!"
After cleaning up, the two girls started chatting about skincare and makeup.
Girls really do have more to talk about.
Before Li Tong arrived, Ye Shuangshuang would absolutely never chat about these things with Lin Yi.
"Shuangshuang, was the makeup you bought at our store last time good?"
"Let me tell you, there's one product I've really wanted to buy, but I don't know how it performs!"
"It's good! It doesn't cake at all! Really!"
"Really? Hurry and take me to see it!"
As they talked, the two of them walked hand-in-hand upstairs.
Then came the sound of a door clicking shut.
Lin Yi was left all alone in the huge living room.
"Sigh, what's the use of having more people in the house... at night, I'm still all alone..."
Lin Yi watched their retreating figures and sighed helplessly.
Then he returned to his bedroom and turned on the computer.
"The long night... only games can keep me company..."
Sure enough, the final destination for every otaku is video games.
As soon as Lin Yi logged into the game, Chen Fei couldn't wait to send a message.
"Brother Lin Yi, you're online!"
Lin Yi checked the time and guessed that Chen Fei was probably live-streaming her gameplay again.
With her skills, she was often roasted by the "teachers" in the live-stream chat.
Since he happened to be free today, he might as well be her knight in shining armor!
"Feifei, want to play together?"
"Really! That's great!"
The two of them had met through the game, but since that one time, they had almost never played together again.
Chen Fei happily sent Lin Yi a party invitation.
