In Love Apartment, I used a cheat to develop the Multiverse Gate.

Back at the Love Apartment, Zhang Yu put everything away and then tallied up his gains. His internal strength had been strengthened once again, both in quality and quantity, showing a noticeable improvement. This was mainly due to the many martial arts manuals he had collected, and he had also figured out the principles of martial arts. The only downside was that Zhang Yu was two years older.

Zhang Yu isn't in a hurry about his age for the time being. Not to mention that there are life-extending treasures in other worlds, Zhang Yu's current internal strength is enough to allow him to live to 150 without any problems, so a mere two years is nothing.

After settling his earnings, Zhang Yu took out his phone to check if anyone had contacted him, mainly to see if anything had happened to the people in the apartment.

Zhang Yu glanced at his phone and knew he'd spent two years in "Reign of Assassins," but less than two days in "iPartment," something truly big had happened. The scumbag Zeng Xiaoxian had reappeared, and Nuolan and he had officially announced their relationship—but her announcement was rather interesting.

Seeing this, I wonder how Hu Yifei is doing now, but really no one dares to provoke her now.

"Zhang Yu, help! Come to the bar immediately!" Zhang Yu looked at the text message Zeng Xiaoxian had sent him more than half an hour ago. Did they only know these few words? Why did they always send the same few words? And why was it always "to the bar"? Couldn't they go somewhere else?

Zhang Yu shook his head speechlessly and walked towards the bar. He didn't know if he could even go and collect the body now, but he'd better go check it out. When Zhang Yu arrived at the bar, everyone was there: Guan Gu Youyou, Zi Qiao Meijia, Zhang Wei, and the scumbag Zeng Xiaoxian. Hu Yifei was nowhere to be seen. Were they discussing Hu Yifei?

"What are you doing? Where's Sister Yifei?"

After Zhang Yu greeted them, he watched as Zeng Xiaoxian fawned over the group like a dog begging for a bone. Upon seeing Zhang Yu, Zeng Xiaoxian happily ran to him.

"Zhang Yu, you must help me."

"Teacher Zeng, what can I help you with? Oh, by the way, I saw the Weibo post. Congratulations!"

Hearing Zeng Xiaoxian's words and observing the attitudes of the others present, Zhang Yu realized what was going on. However, since no one else wanted to go, why would Zhang Yu go to witness Zeng Xiaoxian's chaotic scene or Hu Yifei's defeat? Therefore, Zhang Yu could only make small talk and brush off Zeng Xiaoxian.

"Ah, congratulations! Zhang Yu, are you free tomorrow night? Hu Yifei is treating us to dinner, it's a rare opportunity, don't miss it!" Zeng Xiaoxian replied perfunctorily upon hearing Zhang Yu's words, then looked at Zhang Yu pleadingly, even starting to try and persuade him.

"Hehe, Zhang Yu, don't listen to him. It was Hu Yifei who invited him and Nuolan."

"Lu Ziqiao, you..."

Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian trying to fool Zhang Yu, Lü Ziqiao exposed his lies. Zeng Xiaoxian glared angrily at Lü Ziqiao when he heard him call him out, but Lü Ziqiao ignored him. Seeing that Lü Ziqiao was ignoring him, Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Zhang Yu in a panic.

"No, Teacher Zeng, why do you insist on coming to us? Besides, I have things to do tomorrow."

"That's right, we all have things to do tomorrow."

Hearing Zhang Yu's excuse, the others quickly spoke up. Seeing that they clearly didn't want to deal with him, Zeng Xiaoxian wanted to get angry, but he had no reason to, and besides, he had caused this situation himself, especially since he needed their help now. Zeng Xiaoxian took a few deep breaths and then continued to look at the others with a fawning expression.

"What could you possibly have to do tomorrow, Meijia and Ziqiao? What could you possibly have to do tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is our 100-day anniversary. I've already booked a hotel. We're going to celebrate together."

"Yo..."

Hearing Zeng Xiaoxian relentlessly pressing for an explanation, Meijia hesitated, trying to come up with a reason. Lu Ziqiao immediately stepped in to smooth things over. Hearing Lu Ziqiao's words, the others teased them, and besides Zeng Xiaoxian, Meijia also leaned against Ziqiao's chest, feeling embarrassed.

"No, you've only been together for a short time, not a hundred days." Zeng Xiaoxian looked at the scene that seemed so out of place and suddenly realized that Ziqiao and Meijia had only been together last month.

"You don't understand, we're... we're celebrating ahead of time, that's right, celebrating ahead of time." Seeing his lie exposed, Lu Ziqiao, true to his reputation as a free spirit, immediately realized his mistake and continued to deceive.

"This...can...be...earlier?" Zeng Xiaoxian's jaw dropped when he heard Lu Ziqiao's outrageous words. He stood there dumbfounded, mouth agape. After recovering, he straightened his jaw and turned to look at Guan Gu Youyou. Since there was no chance with Lu Ziqiao, they would have to find someone else.

"You guys aren't celebrating your 100-day anniversary too, are you?"

"How could that be? Our anniversaries were planned long ago... But tomorrow Zhang Yimou asked me to audition for the female lead in his new film. Teacher Zeng, you know I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time."

Youyou immediately retorted to Zeng Xiaoxian's words. She and Guangu had already planned every anniversary until they turned 50, so how could they change it so easily? Hearing Youyou's words, Zeng Xiaoxian showed a satisfied smile, but he smiled too soon, because Youyou said something even more absurd.

"Damn, Auntie, you're even more fake than me."

Even Lu Ziqiao couldn't help but complain, leaving Zeng Xiaoxian speechless. He looked at Guan Gu, who was an honest man and probably wouldn't make up lies.

"Excuse me, Teacher Zeng, they're making a live-action version of The Prince of Tennis, and they want me to play Sadaharu Inui."

"Pfft... Sorry."

Guan Gu was spouting nonsense with a straight face, and Zhang Yu couldn't help but laugh. Hearing Zhang Yu's laughter and seeing Guan Gu's serious expression, Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't hold back any longer.

"The Prince of Tennis already has a live-action version, okay? Guan Gu, you can't even come up with a decent reason for making up lies. Look, even Zhang Yu is laughing at your nonsense."

Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian turn the fire on himself, Zhang Yu quickly spoke up.

"No, Teacher Zeng, I wasn't amused by Guan Gu's nonsense, oops, Guan Gu's reasons. I was just thinking about something happy."

Zeng Xiaoxian, betrayed by Zhang Yu, looked at Zhang Yu with gritted teeth and asked him a question.

"What's making you happy? Tell us so we can all share in the joy."

Seeing the fire burning in Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes, Zhang Yu swallowed hard and then slowly explained his reason.

"My mom called to say that our sow gave birth."

"Pfft, hahahahaha..."

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's reason, the others could no longer hold back and burst into laughter. Seeing the group laughing so hard they were practically falling over, Zeng Xiaoxian felt like the world had abandoned him, and his whole being was broken.

"Stop! You guys... huff... puff... huff... Guan Gu, your reasoning is invalid!" Zeng Xiaoxian shouted, startling everyone. After taking a few deep breaths, he looked at the others and rejected Guan Gu's reasoning.

"Why."

"Exactly, Guan Guan's reasoning doesn't hold water."

Guan Gu and Youyou looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with dissatisfaction. Even Zi Qiao's 100-day anniversary celebration was approved, so why couldn't Guan Gu's be approved?

"Because the live-action version of The Prince of Tennis was released a long time ago."

"They're filming the second season now. Love Apartment already has its fourth season, so why can't Prince of Tennis have a second season?"

As soon as Zeng Xiaoxian stated his reasons for rejection, Youyou immediately defended her husband, but her reasons were impeccable, so Zeng Xiaoxian could only look at Zhang Yu, who had just laughed the loudest.

"Zhang Yu, what about you? What's your reason?"

"My mother..."

"You are not allowed to say that the old sow gave birth, nor are you allowed to say that anything else gave birth."

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's reason, Zeng Xiaoxian immediately interrupted him, cutting off all his other options, and stared intently at Zhang Yu.

"That's so domineering. How about I go meet my future mother-in-law tomorrow night?"

Zhang Yu complained to Zeng Xiaoxian, then gave an even more outrageous reason. Zeng Xiaoxian immediately retorted; if he didn't, who knows what kind of trouble he would cause.

"You don't even have a girlfriend, so where did you get a mother-in-law from?"

That's why I said she was my future mother-in-law.

Zhang Yu mimicked Hua Hua's manner, looking at Zeng Xiaoxian with an innocent expression. The others nodded in agreement, agreeing that Zhang Yu's reasoning was clear and logical.
