1987 My Era

Chapter 660
The footsteps were getting closer!

The footsteps stopped!
Xiao Han glanced around the living room and balcony before finally arriving at the master bedroom door.

She had only just stood at the door when her eyes narrowed and she saw an unbelievable scene: her own honey was kissing the rival she feared so much.
He's kissing Zhou Shihe!
The two bodies were so close! There wasn't even a gap between them!
The two mouths were joined together, resulting in a completely negative number!
In an instant, a surge of anger and an unprecedented sourness welled up from his heart. Xiao Han, who always considered himself to have a strong heart, was about to go crazy and lose it!
She was supposed to help her man, but instead she ended up catching him cheating. Who would feel good in that situation?

In that instant, Xiao Han screamed inwardly: Mr. Li, so what if I eat red meat? So what if I feed you saliva? Didn't I have any?
She was so angry!
She desperately wanted to grab those two scoundrels and beat them to a pulp, slapping them dozens of times across the face, but on her face, this was what she said; on her lips, this was what she truly meant:
Xiao Han forced a sweet smile, leaned against the doorframe, and looked on with an expression of serious appreciation. She cleared her throat, clapped her hands, and exclaimed in approval:

"Tsk tsk! Are they kissing?"

"Oh dear! Mrs. Zhou is too stiff. Has she never eaten chili candy before? Can't you lick it? Can't you French kiss? Your kissing skills are worse than a dog's. How can you keep up with my man for long?"

“Oh dear, Mr. Li, I must criticize you here. You speak fluently and skillfully to me, like a sprite, but to Mrs. Zhou you're like a stinking rock in a latrine? You can't be so biased.”

Li Heng: "..."

Song Yu, who arrived later, was also stunned and speechless.

Li Heng's eyelids twitched wildly, and he let go of Zhou.

Seeing this, Xiao Han stopped joking, then strode into the bedroom, her sweet smile still on her face, but she stared at Zhou Shihe like a venomous snake: "Mr. Li, does your saliva taste good? This is so much fun, let's all do it together."

At this moment, Xiao Han appeared to be smiling, but she gave off an extremely cold feeling, rubbing her hands together as if she were about to start a fight.

Zhou Shihe, on the other hand, was much calmer. She calmly observed the micro-expressions of her rival in front of her and confirmed that she had achieved the desired effect.

Song Yu stood outside the bedroom door, calmly observing everything inside and the three people inside, showing no intention of interfering.

She had already experienced Zhou Shihe's prowess that morning; Zhou Shihe had kissed Li Heng and slapped him in front of her.

At this moment, she couldn't help but suspect that before she and Xiao Han arrived, Zhou Shihe was probably making trouble for Li Heng. The red and blue marks on his left cheek and the faint tear stains at the corners of Zhou Shihe's eyes undoubtedly proved this point.

As for why it suddenly turned into Zhou Shihe and Li Heng kissing?
Drawing on her experience from the morning, the intelligent Song Yu quickly figured out the crux of the problem, but she remained silent and showed no intention of helping anyone.

In Song Yu's heart, among all her female confidantes, she only had special feelings for Zijing and Maisui, and she would only favor Maisui and Zijing, and would only make concessions for Maisui and Zijing.

Moreover, Song Yu and Xiao Han have completely different styles of doing things: she loves Li Heng openly and honestly, and she will not play dirty tricks behind his back. Even if she is no match for Zhou Shihe and Teacher Yu, she will maintain her composure and leave the stage with dignity.

Just as Fudan University's top student was about to speak, Li Heng, who was suffering from a severe headache, spoke first.

Li Heng pushed the two women apart with his hand and muttered a dissent, "Looks like you two ignored what I said in the kitchen. Fine! Since you're so disobedient, you two will sleep with me tonight."

Xiao Han smiled and rolled her eyes at him.

Zhou Shihe remained silent.

Hearing these brash and vulgar words, Song Yu smiled and gazed at him with an elegant and refined air.

Did Song Yu feel jealous after what just happened? She loved Li Heng so much, so naturally she would feel a little jealous, but she was already on guard and wouldn't show it on her face.

After muttering to himself, Li Heng used his hands again to push the two women apart a little more, until both Xiao Han and Zhou Shihe staggered to varying degrees as they stepped back. Only then did he walk between the two women and head towards the door.

Out of the corner of Zhou Shihe and Xiao Han's eyes, Li Heng walked up to Song Yu, then swiftly reached out his right hand, grabbed Song Yu's wrist without a second thought, and left.

He took Song Yu's wrist and left.

Song Yu did not resist. She glanced at his profile and followed him closely, walking silently towards the stairwell.

With Li Heng and Song Yu gone, the bedroom was left with only the two rivals staring at each other in bewilderment.

Zhou Shihe and Xiao Han had different expressions, their attention focused on the receding footsteps outside. Who knew what they were thinking?
After all the fighting, both women seemed to be losers, while Song Yu emerged as the winner without lifting a finger.

And what are they fighting over?
Naturally, it was for Li Heng, and for the sake of pride.

But now that Li Heng, their pillar of support, has left, the two women immediately lost interest in continuing their standoff.

Or rather, they loathe each other.

Zhou Shihe paused for a moment, then turned halfway and left the room with light steps.

After a brief moment of reflection, Xiao Han didn't linger in her rival's territory and quietly left the bedroom.

....
Go down the stairs and come to the first floor.

Song Yu gently pulled her left hand out of his palm, her eyes filled with a faint smile as she reminded him, "Your clothes are all wet at the chest."

Li Heng looked down at his chest.

Song Yu then added, "And the left cheek."

Li Heng paused for a moment, then quickly went into the first-floor washroom and looked at his left cheek in the mirror. There was a faint redness on it.

Damn it!
Miss Zhou's two slaps were quite forceful; even after so much time has passed, there are still traces left on her face.

Li Heng turned on the tap, bent down, and splashed several handfuls of cool water on his left cheek. He did this six or seven times until the marks on his face gradually disappeared.

Song Yu, standing outside the door, simply watched his actions quietly without asking why.

Of course, the reason she reminded Li Heng earlier was partly to save face for him.

Secondly, she wanted to offer him a way out, suggesting he wait for Xiao Han and Zhou Shihe upstairs. She knew very well that although this man seemed dissatisfied with Xiao Han and Zhou Shihe in the bedroom and had left alone with her, who knew what he was really thinking?
She was a kind-hearted person after all, and since it was his birthday, she didn't want to put him in a difficult position.

After washing his face, Li Heng walked out of the washroom and happened to see Zhou Shihe and Xiao Han coming down the stairs one after the other. The two women were about ten steps apart.

Seeing him looking over, Zhou Shihe paused for a moment, then walked past him and quietly left the house.

After a moment's thought, Song Yu left Building 27 without waiting for Li Heng and Xiao Han.

Xiao Han walked over, circled him once, and seeing that he was unmoved, circled him again, finally looking at him pitifully.

Seeing his cunning wife like this, Li Heng chuckled and reached out to stroke her face.

But Xiao Han nimbly dodged it, and said with a hint of unease, her hands behind her back, "Mr. Li, I'm allergic to women."

Why am I allergic to women?

Because Li Heng just hugged Zhou Shihe, she's showing disgust and jealousy.

After saying that, Xiao Han left without waiting for him. Well, all three women had abandoned him, leaving him alone in the once lively room. It just goes to show, three women can't get enough to drink.

Looking at the empty doorway, Li Heng knew better than anyone that Song Yu, Xiao Han, and Zhou Shihe were all proud and arrogant people. They had only gathered together to spite each other, but now that their anger had dissipated, they all harbored some resentment towards him and felt somewhat aggrieved, which was why they left one person behind last.

Raise your left wrist and look at the clock: 5:41
It was dinnertime, so Li Heng didn't linger. He locked the door to his room and the gate to the yard and went back to his own home.

Somewhat surprisingly, everyone in the room was already seated around the table, chatting and waiting for him.

Upon his appearance, everyone immediately stopped chatting and turned to look at him, wondering in their hearts: Who will he sit with?
And Song Yu?
With Xiao Han?
Should I sit with Zhou Shihe again?
Even Mr. Ba, Sister Lin, and Editor-in-Chief Liao had a hint of gossip in their eyes, wanting to see how he would solve this century-old problem.
After all, Song Yu, Xiao Han, and Zhou Shihe are all exceptionally beautiful women, admired by those around them since childhood and possessing an invincible self-confidence. Choosing any of them today would be a disregard and a blow to the other two, and it might be difficult to salvage the situation later.

Now, everyone present has vaguely realized one thing: Li Heng has an inextricable emotional entanglement with the three women, and this choice has far-reaching consequences.

At this moment, Xiao Han and Zhang Haiyan sat together, Song Yu, Chen Xiaoyu, and Sun Manning sat together, and Zhou Shihe and Ye Ning sat together, the three women in three different directions around the round table.

As Li Heng stepped into the room and came to the table, Zhang Haiyan, Chen Xiaoyu, and Ye Ning stood up almost simultaneously, all thinking of giving Li Heng their seats.

Zhang Haiyan, Chen Xiaoyu, and Ye Ning's perfectly synchronized movements left everyone bewildered, as if they had planned it beforehand.

Then everyone laughed.

As cheerful laughter rang out, the oppressive atmosphere in the room immediately eased considerably.

Li Heng glanced at Song Yu, who was speaking quietly to Sun Manning.

Li Heng glanced at Xiao Han, whose fox-like eyes were half-closed, as if to say: Mr. Li, you would like to try sitting with Madam Song and Madam Zhou.
Li Heng glanced at Zhou Shihe one last time. When their eyes met, the young lady Zhou subtly looked away, her face calm and unreadable.

Wow! There are three minefields here! How could he dare to go through them?

Having no other choice, he went straight to Grandpa Ba and said, “Teacher, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a drink with you. Today I’ll drink with you to my heart’s content.”

Grandpa Ba smiled and nodded.

Upon hearing this, Sister Lin secretly gave him a thumbs up, and then quickly asked everyone around to move aside to make room for him.

The moment he sat down, the gloom that had hung over the dining table vanished instantly.

Zhou Shihe glanced at Xiao Han without leaving a trace, and coincidentally, Xiao Han also glanced at Zhou Shihe. The two women stared at each other for two seconds before looking away.

With Li Heng sitting down, Zhou Shihe secretly lowered Xiao Han's perceived threat and competitiveness by one level.

The reason is: This is Shanghai, and for the past two years, Xiao Han has been Li Heng's publicly acknowledged girlfriend, making many girls secretly envious. But today, Xiao Han's status as Li Heng's publicly acknowledged girlfriend has become invalid.

Regardless of whether Li Heng was wary of Song Yu?
Or are you just worried about yourself?

Or both?
However, Xiao Han's previous absolute dominance over Li Heng has been reduced to some extent. At least in Zhou Shihe's analysis: compared to Song Yu, Li Heng may love Song Yu more.

This aligns with previous speculations. The reason why Teacher Yu didn't have a final relationship with Li Heng in the previous years was probably because she was worried about Song Yu and wanted to replace Song Yu in Li Heng's heart.

The table was packed with four men: Li Heng, Mr. Ba, Editor-in-Chief Liao, and Zhang Zhiyong, plus Li Wang, who could drink a lot. The five of them managed to down two bottles of Moutai.

As a result, the simple-minded man and Editor-in-Chief Liao got drunk.

Li Heng was half-drunk. Grandpa Ba and Li Wang, however, remained perfectly fine, still full of energy.

Li Heng whispered to Sister Lin on his right, "Senior brother drank so much tonight, is he in a bad mood?"

"It's probably related to Xu Suyun," Sister Lin guessed.

Upon hearing this, Li Heng wisely refrained from asking further questions.

The meal was quite lively and lasted for more than an hour. During the meal, Li Heng barely spoke to Xiao Han, Song Yu, and Zhou Shihe, mainly because he was afraid of neglecting one of them and causing an imbalance. So he simply tried to keep quiet.

After dinner came the birthday cake.

After lighting the candles, Li Heng made a rather unrealistic wish under everyone's gaze: that his women could get along harmoniously.

Blow out the candles and cut the cake.

With Mr. Ba here today, the first piece of cake will naturally be given to him.

As he stole a glance at the three women while taking the second slice of cake, he felt a jolt when he saw them all staring at him. He then cleverly handed the cake to Sister Lin and winked at her subtly.

Sister Lin smiled, took the cake, hesitated for a moment, and then handed it to Xiao Han.

Of the three women, Sister Lin was most familiar with Xiao Han, followed by Zhou Shihe, and today was the first time she had met Song Yu.

Therefore, it was only natural for her to deliver the cake to Xiao Han.

Xiao Han, with a small dimple, said happily, "Thank you, Sister Lin."

Actually, when her husband handed the cake to Sister Lin, she understood her man's intentions; the second piece of cake was meant for her.

Zhou Shihe received the third cake, which was also handed over by Sister Lin.

The fourth piece of cake was given to Song Yu. This time, Li Heng personally handed it to her, but he didn't explain anything.

He didn't need to explain much to someone as perceptive as Song Yu; she understood him naturally.

The atmosphere became much more relaxed after that. Li Heng and Sister Lin cut the cake together, starting from the nearest piece and moving outwards, creating a lively atmosphere.

Around 7 p.m., the birthday party ended, and Sister Lin and the teacher left and returned to Wukang Road.

Seeing this, Wei Xiaozhu, Dai Qing, Bai Wanying, and the others wisely retreated.

The drunken Zhang Zhiyong tried to slip away, but Li Heng secretly kicked him, making him grimace and curse, "Damn it! What are you doing keeping this old man here? Any one of your women makes me tremble."

Li Heng said, "Play dead, and I'll send you away later."

Zhang Zhiyong's eyes darted around, and then he actually lay down in the corner of the sofa, closed his eyes, and lay there like a corpse.

P.S.: I have a high fever and am not feeling well, sorry.

The experts all said they hoped for a fixed update time, so after thinking about it in March, I decided to set it for 6 PM every day from now on.
