Jiang Mo initially instinctively nodded but suddenly realized something that made her sharply aware. She got up somewhat flustered and caught up with Ding Yi before she reached the master bedroom.
"The lighting is quite good, Senior Sister, and your taste in decor is excellent..."
Ding Yi seemed unaware of Jiang Mo’s nervousness. She just looked around and didn’t try to open the master bedroom door, soon turning back to the living room.
It was only when Jiang Mo breathed a sigh of relief that Ding Yi casually glanced at the tightly closed bedroom door, her expression slightly complicated.
Two women, both breathtakingly beautiful but with completely different demeanors, sat back down on the sofa. Ding Yi looked at Jiang Mo with concern,
"Senior Sister, the reason I dropped by was that I heard from Professor Wang that you don’t want to continue with your graduate studies?"
"So what are you planning to do next?"
"I... I don’t know, I haven’t decided yet."
Jiang Mo hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "I just don’t want to study law anymore. I’m too clumsy and not good at speaking..."
"Struggling with communication can be awkward unless you pursue pure academic research. Otherwise, any law-related career involves dealing with all kinds of people..."
Ding Yi tilted her head in thought, then said, "Senior Sister, I remember you once told me that your dream was to pursue further studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London, right?"
"Well, it wasn’t exactly a dream... Back then, I just thought learning music was nice; it could speak for me."
Jiang Mo nodded slightly.
"Then why not go now?"
Jiang Mo was obviously taken aback, "But..."
"It’s not too late; you’re only 24. You have plenty of time, and since you have such a strong foundation, you could complete all the courses in a year or two if all goes well..."
Ding Yi smiled and said, "You don’t need to worry about the paperwork; I can help you take care of it."
Jiang Mo remained silent for a long time before ultimately shaking her head, "Forget it."
Ding Yi could tell Jiang Mo had ideas, but for some reason, she restrained them.
Jiang Mo said softly.
The living room fell silent; neither Ding Yi nor Jiang Mo spoke for a while.
After some time, Ding Yi broke the silence with a playful tone, "You could choose a school in the country too. Huaxia Music College isn’t bad; I remember it ranked quite close to the top 50 recently. I happen to know some insiders..."
"Wouldn’t that be too troublesome?"
This time, Jiang Mo showed clear interest.
"Nope, let me ask around for you."
Ding Yi winked at Jiang Mo, "There might be a simple exam. If not, we can have Zhou Wang sponsor you. He’s loaded, so let’s just hit him up hard..."
"Yu Duo, I finally have a little income, and you’re just going to rip me off ?"
At apartment 3308 of Yue Center near the second ring of Ming City, two youthful and vibrant girls were teasing each other in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Shen Yutong glanced at the takeout billing page Yu Duo handed her, and the amount over 300 made her eye twitch. She couldn’t help but pinch the smooth waist beneath Yu Duo’s tank top.
"Ouch, Sister Tongtong, you’ve got a whopping 6,000! What’s wrong with splurging once? Don’t you want some delicious spicy crabs?"
Yu Duo leaned on Shen Yutong’s shoulder, her small hands unable to resist wandering downwards because Shen Yutong’s assets were too compelling.
Especially for Yu Duo, who was nicknamed "Flat" from a young age, she always envied whenever she saw it.
"I want to... Alright then, since I live for free in your place, I’ll treat you to something nice!"
Shen Yutong swatted away Yu Duo’s mischievous hands while painfully making the payment, "But only this once."
"Tightwad. Well, I don’t care; I’m bankrupt now, so you’re responsible for my three meals a day!"
Yu Duo giggled, "Besides, didn’t you say you didn’t have the 6,000 at first? The extra is like found money, so of course, it must be spent lavishly!"
"That’s true, but I always feel that the money is burning a hole in my pocket. After all, I only went there once; I should have received only one or two thousand..."
Shen Yutong said with a hint of anxiety, "I’m even thinking of returning the money."
The 6,000 was the wage paid by Dianwang Club for Shen Yutong’s part-time work. But the truth was, she went there only once, so Shen Yutong felt uneasy...
"That’s silly. How can you think like that?"
Yu Duo counted on her fingers, analyzing for Shen Yutong,
"Didn’t you say the owner of Dianwang Club is actually Zhou Wang? He’s not a fool, so why pay you more than necessary? It must be because Zhou Wang specially instructed it. Think of it as Zhou Wang giving you a big red envelope!"
"But we’re not that close, so he has no reason to give me a red envelope..."
"Really not that close?"
Yu Duo squinted her eyes, pretending to be stern as she leaned in, "Then why did you call Zhou Wang’s name in your sleep last night? Tell me, how far have you progressed? Have you kissed?"
"Uh, I don’t think I dreamed about him last night..."
Shen Yutong immediately blushed.
Yu Duo, who was initially joking, suddenly became suspicious because Shen Yutong only answered her first question...
Knowing her well, Yu Duo was suddenly shocked and asked, "Did you... did you really kiss Zhou Wang?!"
Unable to avoid it, Shen Yutong shyly lowered her head and nodded lightly.
