If the confession fails, then pursue her best friend

Chapter 237 Li Zhanan: No, you came at the right time (asking for monthly tickets)
At this birthday party, some people were happy and some were sad.

The happiest person was undoubtedly today’s birthday girl, Bai Weixi. She was so moved that she kept crying from beginning to end and was very emotional.

From beginning to end, a pair of small hands were holding Li Yuan tightly, unwilling to let go, following him wherever he went, enjoying the glory of being Li Yuan's only "official girlfriend" at this moment.

Under the dynamic music beat, the bonfire party is not as lively as a real bar, but because everyone is familiar with each other and can sing on the stage, the atmosphere is more lively, like a combination of a bar and KTV...

Li Yuan took a glass of prepared drink from the bartender and handed it to Bai Weixi, but out of the corner of his eyes he secretly glanced at Zhong Tingyue who was drinking alone in the corner.

Zhong Tingyue acted like an invisible person today, with no sense of existence at all, as if she didn't want to snatch the light that belonged to Bai Weixi.

However, no matter how low-key she is, wherever she stands, she will shine and attract the attention of others.

This naturally includes Li Yuan.

Li Yuan looked at Zhong Tingyue who was drinking alone, feeling a little melancholy. He wanted to walk over, hug the little moon into his arms, and take good care of her...

However, today is Bai Weixi's birthday party, so it would be inappropriate to do this.

I could only suppress the throbbing in my heart and concentrate on accompanying Bai Weixi.

"Xiaobai, try this martini, it tastes pretty good."

Bai Weixi was in an excited mood today, and with Li Yuan and his classmates around him, he relaxed, took the wine glass, and took a sip.

"Brother, it tastes good, a little sweet."

This kind of cocktail tastes much better than liquor and beer. It is a bit like RIO in the future and is more suitable for girls.

"Try the food prepared by the hotel. They are all freshly baked. There are all kinds of seafood and barbecue, cakes, whatever you want to eat, you can eat as much as you want."

Li Yuan reached out and took a steak, gently separated it with a knife and fork, picked up a piece, and brought it to Bai Weixi's mouth.

Bai Weixi opened her red lips happily
This kind of bonfire party simply omits the way of eating together at a big table and becomes a kind of open-air buffet dining method, which is closer to birthday parties in Western countries.

This method is also more suitable for today's scene. The audience are all freshmen, who are quick to accept new things. They can eat, drink, chat and sing at the same time.
While enjoying Li Yuan's feeding, Bai Weixi pointed at the stage with a blush on her face and said with a smile:
"Brother, listen, Yuchen is singing with Xu Zhi. Their relationship is much better now."

Li Yuan looked carefully and saw that Xu Zhi, the boy, was actually holding Wang Yuchen's hand and going on stage to sing a love song duet.

The memory of that night's accidental contact with the third kind suddenly flashed through his mind. A strange emotion suddenly arose in his heart, but he quickly drove it away.

A friend's wife should not be cheated on. He is a decent man.
Li Yuan did not have a very good impression of Wang Yuchen. Wang Yuchen was much more of a "green tea" person than Bai Weixi, and had a very obvious materialistic tendency.

As the saying goes, "A red flower grows redder when it is near a red flower, and a black flower grows blacker when it is near a black flower." In her previous life, Bai Weixi gradually became a bit of a green tea fan. This must have a lot to do with her best friend.
When chatting with Xu Zhi last night, although he didn't ask in detail, he could guess that the reason why Xu Zhi secretly sold some of his Biguandi shares was probably to cash out and maintain his relationship with Wang Yuchen...

Therefore, Wang Yuchen and Xu Zhi have resumed their "intimate" relationship in the past few days.

Li Yuan looked at Xu Zhi who was singing with deep emotion, and muttered to himself: "Dazhi, today is such a good opportunity. If you can't get her first blood again, don't blame me for looking down on you."

He had a hunch that if Xu Zhi could take down Wang Yuchen today, then everything would be fine. At least all Xu Zhi's efforts for so long would be rewarded.

If you still can't get it, then you might really be completely controlled like in your previous life.

The more you invest, if you cannot see the rewards quickly, it means you have paid a huge "sunk cost". You can only keep investing like a gambler until you lose everything.

In his previous life, he fell into the "gambler's trap" and paid too much, which led to him becoming "a person who is confused by his own actions."

By that time, it would be very difficult to withdraw and stop the bleeding in time, because all your chips have been lost.
In this life, like when I was with Zhong Tingyue, Xia Zhijin, and Jiang Zhiyu, I could take it step by step, enjoy the feeling of constantly testing the boundaries of sensitivity, and have a long-term love relationship.
However, he was afraid of falling into the "gambler's trap" again and chose the quick strategy.
While Li Yuan was chatting with Bai Weixi, he observed the reactions of the people at the scene out of the corner of his eye.

Suddenly, his eyes caught sight of his high school best friend Wang Shuai, a single guy who was like a cat that smelled blood. He was being attentive to a girl named "Zhou Lei" and the two seemed to be chatting happily.
Li Yuan asked curiously: "Xiao Bai, what's the situation with Zhou Lei in your class? Does she have a boyfriend?"

When Bai Weixi heard Li Yuan ask this, her subconscious reaction was that Li Yuan had taken a fancy to another of her college classmates.

Bai Weixi asked very vigilantly: "Zhou Lei? Why are you asking her?"

Seeing Bai Weixi's nervous look, Li Yuan burst out laughing and pointed at Wang Shuai to explain.

"Look, Xiao Shuai is talking to Zhou Lei. Xiao Shuai has always wanted to find a girlfriend, and I want to see if Zhou Lei is suitable."

Bai Weixi followed the direction Li Yuan pointed and saw Wang Shuai and Zhou Lei chatting and laughing, looking like they were having a great time. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

She covered her mouth and chuckled, "Huh, stinky brother, I thought you were interested in my classmate again."

Li Yuan muttered awkwardly: "How is that possible? I'm not that fickle and fall in love with every girl I meet."

Bai Weixi rolled her eyes at Li Yuan, gently twisted Li Yuan's waist and abdomen with her small hands, snorted tenderly, and her tone was full of jealousy:

"You still dare to say you're not unfaithful? You already have four girlfriends."

Li Yuan smiled awkwardly, thinking that in everyone's eyes, he was probably a playboy.

He has only been in college for more than two months and he is already dating four girlfriends at the same time. If he is not considered a philandering scumbag, then I guess there are no philandering men in the world.

"Ahem, Xiaobai, this is a special situation. You know, I wouldn't like other girls."

Bai Weixi thought of what Li Yuan said, snorted, glared at Li Yuan, and introduced Zhou Lei's situation with a smile.

"Zhou Lei is from Shanghai. She doesn't seem to have a boyfriend yet. However, I heard from her that there are several boys pursuing her. They are quite good. If Wang Shuai wants to pursue Zhou Lei,

As Bai Weixi spoke, his eyes turned to Li Yuan, and the meaning was self-evident.

Wang Shuai's conditions are still inferior to those of Zhou Lei's several suitors.

Regardless of height, appearance, knowledge, or family conditions.
Li Yuan smiled indifferently, it was normal for Bai Weixi to have such thoughts.

She and Zhou Lei were both top students from 985 universities, while Wang Shuai was just an ordinary second-tier university. There was a deep chain of contempt between universities.

Especially girls' views on boys are particularly profound.

Wang Shuai has been single since high school. Of course, there are reasons why he is not very good, including his height, appearance, grades and eloquence.
Even if the family conditions were considered good in the hometown county, they were nothing in Shanghai, one of the richest places in the world.

However, if Wang Shuai has my support in this life and is willing to follow me forever, it may not be impossible for him to win the heart of a girl like Zhou Lei.

If you want to pursue a girl who has good conditions in all aspects, you must learn to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, make full use of your own strengths, and make your strengths attractive enough to the other party.

Or, lower the other person's rank and make her realize that she is not that good.

As long as you do these two things, there will be no girl you can't pursue.

But if you are like yourself in your previous life, or like most of the "dog-sucking" type of guys, chasing girls and praising them highly, it will only end in disappointment in the end.

Even if you succeed in pursuing the other person for a short period of time, there is a high probability that the other person will cheat on you in the future.

Because this is the natural psychology of girls to "admire the strong" and "compete with others", just like men are lustful until death.
Li Yuan smiled noncommittally: "Let's wait and see. I think if Xiao Shuai really wants to pursue Zhou Lei, he can still do it."

Listening to Li Yuan's answer, Bai Weixi pursed his lips and smiled secretly: "Hehe, brother, you don't want to pass on your experience in chasing girls to Wang Shuai, do you?"

Li Yuan coughed awkwardly: "Ahem, I don't have any experience in chasing girls, it's not like you don't understand."

Bai Weixi: "Humph, how could I not understand you? You were very skilled in the methods you used to pursue girls in high school. Otherwise, you wouldn't have won them over so quickly."

Before he could finish his words, Bai Weixi's cell phone suddenly rang.

"Only when the white moonlight shines on you can you remember his goodness, but the cinnabar mole is hard to erase."

Bai Weixi glanced at the caller and smiled sweetly at Li Yuan: "Brother, it's my mother calling."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Well, go answer the phone first. Today is your birthday. Uncle and aunt must miss you and want to celebrate your birthday."

Bai Weixi: "Okay, I'll go pick it up, you eat something first."

……

Seeing Bai Weixi go aside to answer the phone, Li Yuan, holding a glass of wine, came to each "guest" and said hello.

Today, he is also considered the male protagonist, so naturally he has to act like a protagonist.

Li Yuan came in front of Wang Lisha and Deng Meiqi, raised his wine glass and gestured.

"Two beauties, how are you? Eat well, drink well, sing well, and have fun!"

When Wang Lisha and Deng Meiqi saw Li Yuan coming, they quickly stood up, raised their glasses and clinked them with Li Yuan.

"Hehe, thank you Mr. Li for your hospitality and the big red envelope. This evening was very nice and I will never forget it in my life."

Li Yuan smiled and joked, "Eat more, drink more, and have fun. If you go back and say you didn't eat enough, I'll be embarrassed."

Wang Lisha smiled and said, "Li Yuan, you are so humorous. I feel like if I continue to eat, I will definitely gain 10 kilograms tomorrow, and all my recent weight loss efforts will be in vain."

Li Yuan joked: "It's okay, only when you are full can you have the energy to lose weight! Besides, your figure is just right, you don't need to lose weight at all."

"Hehe, Mr. Li, you are so sweet-mouthed. No wonder Weixi and Tingyue are so devoted to you."

Li Yuan smiled awkwardly, "Haha, you guys drink first, I'll go over there and see if you two are having fun."

"Yes, yes, go ahead." Wang Lisha said. After Li Yuan left, Wang Lisha whispered to Deng Meiqi: "Meiqi, do you have a special feeling when facing Li Yuan?"

Deng Meiqi joked: "What special feeling? Don't tell me, you also like him?"

"What nonsense!" Wang Lisha blushed and said with a puzzled look: "I don't know why, but when I face Li Yuan up close, I feel scared."

"Well, I can't say I'm afraid. How should I put it? It's like the feeling of awe when facing the principal or the leader. Li Yuan seems to have a special aura that gives people a feeling of oppression."

Deng Meiqi nodded gently: "I have the same feeling as you said. I think it should be the pressure brought by Li Yuan's various identities.

He is now an online writer with a monthly income of one million, a well-known musical talent, and the founder of Zhihu.com. I heard that Zhihu.com has been valued at more than 5 million yuan. As long as he sells this website, he can immediately become a billionaire.

Facing Li Yuan, sometimes it's like facing a business tycoon. I can't help but feel a little weaker in my heart."

Wang Lisha nodded in agreement: "I just searched online, and a birthday party of this level today alone would cost fifty or sixty thousand, plus the Tiffany necklace that Li Yuan gave me, it would cost at least six figures."

"Tsk tsk, with this much money, it's almost enough to pay for a down payment on a single apartment in Shanghai. Li Yuan is really willing to spend it. No wonder Wei Xi and Ting Yue are unwilling to break up on their own initiative."

Deng Meiqi laughed: "Whoever breaks up first at this time is a fool. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack to find another boyfriend as handsome, talented, and generous as Li Yuan. It's almost impossible."

Wang Lisha nodded in agreement, and then complained with deep emotion.

"Meiqi, have you noticed that since Wei Xi and Ting Yue started dating Li Yuan, our standards have also become higher. Seeing them wearing brand-name clothes, brand-name jewelry, driving luxury cars, and living in luxury houses, I always feel that such a luxurious life is within our reach. When I look at other boys, I always feel that they are a little bit inferior.
"You know, a few days ago, a boy from the class next door asked me out for dinner. It was just a simple hotpot meal, but he actually wanted to split the bill with me. He even hesitated over buying a few dollars worth of milk tea. I was speechless."

Li Yuan was not aware of the two girls' private discussions.

If he knew, he would probably just laugh it off and think it was natural.

This phenomenon has always existed in society and is the fundamental reason why there are said to be 100 million "leftover women" in big cities in the future. People who are used to the bright lights and high consumption of big cities, how could they be willing to endure hardships and work?

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
With the rapid development of economy and better material enjoyment, people's moral bottom line will continue to decline.

The era of laughing at poverty but not at prostitution has begun.
After greeting everyone, Li Yuan quietly came over and sat down next to Zhong Tingyue, looked at her drunken face, and gently touched her hair.

"Little Moon, you're in a bad mood."

Zhong Tingyue held the goblet, glanced at Li Yuan with a blushing face, and asked in a sour tone: "Senior, why don't you go to accompany her?"

Li Yuan rubbed Zhong Tingyue's head and joked, "Little Moon, are you drinking wine or vinegar? It smells very vinegary!"

"Hmph, you stinky senior, is it okay for me to be jealous?" Zhong Tingyue snorted and stared at Li Yuan.

"You haven't answered me yet?"

Li Yuan reached out and hugged Zhong Tingyue's slender waist, which was as smooth as silk, and held her in his arms, with his mouth close to her earlobe.

Then, while Zhong Tingyue was trembling slightly, he opened his mouth and gently bit her earlobe.

Zhong Tingyue felt as if she had received an electric shock. Her body trembled slightly, and a bright red color instantly covered her face, ears, and neck.
"Little Moon, you're so cute and sexy when you're jealous. I can't help but want to eat you."

Zhong Tingyue drank some wine and winked at Li Yuan with a seductive look.

"Hmph, senior, come on, I'm waiting for you to eat me tonight."

When Li Yuan touched Zhong Tingyue's charming eyes, the evil fire in his heart was instantly aroused, and his body reacted.

He didn't care that tonight was Bai Weixi's birthday party, he just hugged Zhong Tingyue and put his mouth on hers, while one of his hands was restlessly wandering on her long legs wearing black stockings from Balenciaga.
"Wuwuwu, senior, what are you doing? Don't"

"Xiaoyue, you were the first to do it. I can't stand it anymore. What do you say I should do?"

"Hmph, I don't care, let me go quickly, Weixi will come soon, if she sees it, she will definitely be angry."

"I don't know if she's angry or not, but you are angry, jealous little moon. From now on, I'll call you a lemon!"

"Who is jealous? I just feel a little uncomfortable."

"Haha, you said you weren't jealous, so why did you drink so much alone? Don't tell me you suddenly like drinking. You're deliberately drinking to drown your sorrows and numb yourself."

"Hmph, I don't want you to care, just let me go, I won't drink anymore, okay."

"I can let you go, but you have to agree to one thing I ask."

"What if they don't agree?"

"Hey, if you don't agree, I won't let you get out of bed tomorrow."

"Smelly senior, you are so mean. I promised you and that's not enough. Tell me, what evil thoughts are you thinking?"

"I won't tell you yet, you will know later."

"Wei Xi is coming, let me go!"

Zhong Tingyue, who was in Li Yuan's arms, saw Bai Weixi suddenly coming towards her and suddenly struggled violently, trying to break free from Li Yuan's arms.

Li Yuan looked at Bai Weixi who was walking towards him and waved at her.

Bai Weixi had just finished a call with her parents when she saw Li Yuan hugging Zhong Tingyue. When she saw Li Yuan waving at her, she walked over with a little anger in her heart.

Bai Weixi's tone was also full of lemon flavor: "It seems that I came at the wrong time."

Li Yuan patted the rattan chair beside him, motioned Bai Weixi to sit down, and smiled: "No, you came at the right time."

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Zhong Tingyue chuckled and looked at Li Yuan strangely. She always felt that she had heard these words somewhere before, but also felt that they were a little bit not serious.

"Hmph." Bai Weixi snorted and sat down shyly, leaning on Li Yuan on either side with Zhong Tingyue.

With Bai Weixi's arrival, the game that was originally a two-person game suddenly had one more person, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little silent.

The two girls stopped talking.

Li Yuan felt helpless when he saw this, because before this he had been dreaming of having two beauties on both sides and enjoying all the happiness.

It now seems that it is simply impossible in a short period of time.

It's already pretty good if a few girls get along with each other and don't target each other or just start a fight.

"We have to find a way to make them less hostile when they are together. It would be great if they could get along like good sisters like what we saw in the news before." Li Yuan muttered to himself.

To do this, an opportunity was needed. Li Yuan took the initiative to speak and broke the awkward silence.

"Xiaobai, uncle and aunt are back home, are everything okay?"

Bai Weixi nodded her chin: "Well, everything is fine, but they missed me a little. This is the first time I haven't celebrated my birthday with them since I was a child."

As he spoke, drops of crystal tears appeared in the corners of Bai Weixi's eyes and rolled around in his eye sockets.

Obviously, the nearly half-hour phone call with her parents just now made her feel a little homesick.

Li Yuan wiped Bai Weixi's eyes and said with a smile: "Hey, Xiaobai, uncle and aunt, did you mention me?"

Bai Weixi glared at Li Yuan shyly and nodded.

In fact, what she didn't say was that during the half-hour phone call with her parents, more than half of the time was spent asking about things related to Li Yuan.

Perhaps, in the eyes of parents, the most feared thing after learning that their beloved daughter is in love is that their beloved daughter will be emotionally hurt.

This was her parents, who didn't know how many girlfriends Li Yuan had. If they knew the truth, Bai Weixi couldn't even imagine the scene.
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Say hello to my uncle and aunt for me!"

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass in his hand, looked at the two super beauties on his left and right, and said with a smile:
"Xiaobai, Xiaoyue, let's have a drink together. It's fate that we can sit here together."

Bai Weixi and Zhong Tingyue looked at each other, raised their glasses and took a sip of the wine.

Zhong Tingyue asked curiously: "Wei Xi, has Li Yuan met your parents?"

"Yes, I have met them. It was during the National Day holiday and they came to Shanghai to see me." Bai Weixi exhaled a breath of alcohol and stared at Zhong Tingyue's face with her beautiful eyes.

This was the first time she looked at her beautiful roommate so seriously after she found out that Li Yuan was having multiple affairs.

Bai Weixi also asked: "What about you?"

"Me?" Zhong Tingyue smiled and nodded: "He has met my mother."

Bai Weixi felt uncomfortable when she heard that Li Yuan had also met Zhong Tingyue's mother. She glared at Li Yuan and snorted:
"Oh, so, brother, you have met our parents."

The words were not finished, but the implication in them made Li Yuan tremble slightly.

"Haha, the moonlight is beautiful today. Come on, my dears, let's have a drink together."

Zhong Tingyue looked at Li Yuan suspiciously and snorted, "Senior, why did you keep asking us to drink tonight? Are you planning to do something bad?"
