The school beauty is aloof? Whatever, she has a younger sister.

Chapter 31 He adored Chu Youting's personality
Zhang Muchen found an excuse to send Wang Shishi away, leaving herself alone in room 703.

He waited a little while. Then he heard soft footsteps outside the door.

Chu Youting cautiously peeked out and glanced into the room, her voice soft and tinged with apology.

"I... had a bit of an upset stomach, so it took me a little while to get there... I'm sorry."

Zhang Muchen stepped forward, opened the door completely, and gestured for her to come in.

"It's alright, it's just a good thing you were there for a while. Otherwise, it would have been a complete free-for-all."

Chu Youting blinked, somewhat puzzled: "A free-for-all?"

Zhang Muchen shrugged and explained as he closed the door, "Your sister just came to get her bag, and Wang Shishi also came over and knocked on the door. Luckily, I reacted quickly and got rid of them both."

Chu Youting was taken aback and said in a low voice, "Well, it's good that my sister didn't find out."

Zhang Muchen turned around and looked around the room. After making sure nothing was left behind, he turned off the air conditioner.

He took out his keys from his pocket and gestured to Chu Youting, "It's time to go to self-study, let's go."

The two left the room one after the other.

Zhang Muchen locked the door, then turned to Chu Youting and said, "By the way, don't forget to try to get your sister to participate in the New Year's Eve gala. I'm really looking forward to performing on stage with you."

Chu Youting's cheeks flushed slightly after hearing this, and she whispered, "Okay..."

Zhang Muchen put away the keys and was about to leave when he suddenly seemed to remember something.

He stopped and turned to look at Chu Youting: "Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you. I paid half a year's rent for you."

"what?"

Chu Youting was taken aback by what she heard, and subconsciously looked up at Zhang Muchen, her eyes full of confusion.

Zhang Muchen's sudden remark left her momentarily stunned, and she struggled to process the news.

Seeing her reaction, Zhang Muchen couldn't help but smile. Leaning against the wall, he said, "I went to your landlord and talked to him. He agreed to reduce your rent by 500 yuan every month, and I've already paid half a year's rent for you."

Chu Youting's mouth gaped slightly, as if she couldn't believe her ears: "You...you paid half a year's rent for us?"

Zhang Muchen looked at her incredulous expression, but he wasn't surprised at all.

After all, paying rent had absolutely nothing to do with him. Anyone who heard such outrageous news would have shown the same expression as Chu Youting.

Moreover, Zhang Muchen could have easily kept this matter private.

But the problem is—he's Zhang Muchen, someone who never hides his good deeds. Even a dog on the street needs to know he did something good.

For him, doing good deeds without letting others know is no different from not doing them at all.
In Zhang Muchen's mind, wearing fine clothes in secret was absolutely intolerable. If you wear fine clothes, you must walk openly on the street, and even wiggle your buttocks a couple of times.

However, paying the rent for the two sisters was indeed a bit abrupt. Zhang Muchen had already prepared an explanation to avoid making Chu Youting feel uneasy or embarrassed.

"Don't misunderstand, this money is an investment in you. You and your sister are both outstanding, and you're both promising investments. So, when you achieve great success in the future, don't forget me."

Chu Youting's lips moved slightly after hearing this, as if she hadn't fully grasped the meaning yet: "But...but..."

Zhang Muchen waved his hand to interrupt: "You can also treat this money as an interest-free loan, and you can pay me back slowly when you make money in the future. Of course, I would prefer that you become big bosses in the future, and let me be the CPU, oops, the CEO."

"You don't need to feel guilty. This money is nothing to me. Understand?"

Chu Youting stood there blankly, still processing Zhang Muchen's words.

She paused for a moment, then nodded gently, her voice still soft: "I understand."

Looking at her obedient appearance, Zhang Muchen felt a strange sense of pleasure.

He adored Chu Youting's gentle and submissive personality. She always did whatever he said without any resistance.

Oh, of course, resisting will only make you more excited. *cough cough*
He's starting to go crazy again.
"Sister, do you know about this?"

Chu Youting's soft, sweet voice pulled Zhang Muchen back to reality.

He shook his head: "Your sister doesn't know yet. But to be honest, I don't think she'll accept it easily."

Upon hearing this, Chu Youting nodded slightly: "Mm..."

“If I tell her I paid your rent, she’ll probably just give the money back to me and feel like she was given charity. So, let’s just keep it from her.” Zhang Muchen gently patted Chu Youting’s shoulder.

“I’ve already talked to the landlord. The landlord will tell your sister that a kind person in the community paid the rent for you, and they don’t want to reveal their name. That way, even if your sister is very strong-willed, she can’t refuse, right?”

Chu Youting was slightly taken aback. She raised her eyes to look at Zhang Muchen, her gaze revealing a different kind of emotion.

Although the boy in front of me always seems carefree and irresponsible, he gives off a sense of security that I can rely on.

"By the way, let's add each other on WeChat or QQ. That way it'll be easier to keep in touch," Zhang Muchen said.

Chu Youting nodded slightly and whispered, "Okay..."

Zhang Muchen: "Do you usually carry your phone with you?"

"I will bring it. But it's always been in the desk drawer... I don't look at it much," Chu Youting replied softly.

Zhang Muchen: "If I need to contact you in the future, such as after class or during meals, I will send you a message. Remember to keep an eye on your phone."

"Tell me your WeChat ID and QQ number, and I'll add you now."

"WeChat ID is Y178******"

"QQ number is 5798******"

Zhang Muchen immediately took out his phone, quickly entered her WeChat ID and QQ number, and sent a verification message.

He then glanced at Chu Youting and waved his hand, "It's all settled. Bye-bye, go back to your studies."

Chu Youting lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Bye...bye-bye."

office.

Zhang Muchen pushed open the office door and saw that only Liu Wuyang and Chu Jiuli were in the room.

When Liu Wuyang saw Zhang Muchen come in, she frowned and said, "Where have you been? You've kept us waiting for so long."

Zhang Muchen: "My stomach wasn't feeling well, so I went to the toilet."

Liu Wuyang shook her head helplessly and beckoned him over: "Let's talk about the New Year's Eve party."

She tidied up the documents on the table and handed them to the two of them.

"The host selection will be next Thursday at noon. Jiu Li, prepare well."

"The judging for the song category will be held next Wednesday at noon. You have four days to prepare your performances, including the weekend."

Zhang Muchen nodded and casually asked, "What if our program doesn't pass the selection?"

Liu Wuyang smiled: "Then you should atone with your death."

"."

Damn it, I asked unnecessary questions.
