The monkey looked hesitant to speak.

Shen Xi clasped her hands together, she really never imagined that Lin Yutang still hid secrets that she didn't know about, but how could she not, it's just that she never knew about it.

Speaking of which, she wasn't his official girlfriend yet.

Before the monkey could say anything, Shen Xi realized that her palms were already sweating, so she stood up and poured herself a glass of water. On the other hand, the monkey was still a little scruples, for fear that "someone" would poach the wall immediately after hearing it.

Shen Xi sat in front of the monkey again, took a small sip of water from the water cup, with a calm expression as if he was just listening to a gossip.

The monkey whetted his appetite, couldn't hold back the strong man's urging, and told him what he knew about "that thing": it had happened for several months. He went to the bank with Lin Yutang to handle business. He saw Lin Yutang transferring money. The transfer amount was definitely a huge amount for a college student. In addition, he accidentally saw the remitter's name, which was a special female name, so he smiled. Lin Yutang: "Third brother, you didn't raise one outside, did you?"

"..."

"What does the third one say?" The strong man's eyes were wide open, and his jaw almost hit the ground with a bang.

The monkey recalled the scene at that time, and said, "Nothing."

"What's nothing?" The strong man didn't understand.

"It's nothing." The monkey said again, "That's how the third child responds to me."

"How much is it?" The strong man continued to ask, and shifted the focus again.

The monkey stretched out his finger and gestured: "There is this number."

"Impossible, where did the third child get so much money?" The strong man didn't believe it.

"I've kept it since I was a child." Shen Xi said calmly, answering the strong man's doubts.

She knew that Lin Yutang had the habit of saving money since he was a child. The sum of pocket money, New Year's money and various scholarships, big and small, was higher than the amount that the monkey just gestured. Once she and Lin Yutang celebrated a friend's birthday. When talking about the high housing prices in S City and whether young people can buy a wedding house by themselves, Lin Yutang's opinion was: "The wedding house must be more meaningful if you work hard for it yourself."

At the birthday party that day, Lin Yutang drank a lot, and was a little drunk when he came back. He told her at the end of the quiet bus: "Xixi, I have saved the down payment for buying a house now, and after graduation, I will sign a good company. No problem with the loan."

Compared with Lin Yutang, she had no plans since she was a child, and everything was planned by her parents; and she and Lin Yutang's family background did not need to worry about the issue of the wedding room, but she heard Lin Yutang said that she had already saved the money for the down payment. They are all filled with something called "happiness".

He is planning a future with her, how could she not be happy.

But now... Shen Xi really wanted to cry, even though Lin Yutang never said that he wanted to marry her, she felt that Lin Yutang used the money she paid for the wedding house for another woman.

"What's the name of that woman?" The strong man was a little disbelieving, "So much money, can't it be for relatives or something?"

"I already said we are friends." Monkey scratched his head, he really couldn't remember the name, he thought about it again, "I just remember it was Ling..."

"Lingling?" The strong man guessed randomly.

The monkey continued to think: "What's the matter with Ling..."

From the beginning to the end, Shen Xi lowered his head and remained silent, only his delicate long eyelashes fluttered slightly, covering his red eye sockets. After a while, she read out the girl's name: "Ling Chaochao, right?"

The monkey turned the pen in his hand, and with a "click", the pen fell off. He was so surprised that he almost stood up: "Yes, it is Ling Chaochao! But boss, how do you know?"

"Because... I've seen her on Moments." Shen Xi made up a random reason, then stood up and walked out of the dormitory.

Shen Xi left the men's dormitory with red eyes. When she was in the dormitory, she still had some scruples. When she came to a small forest downstairs in the dormitory, tears kept falling, and she began to cry.

People walked by the grove from time to time, Shen Xi looked left and right, and when he saw someone passing by, he immediately covered his mouth with his hands and stopped for a while, and when he left, he let go of his hands and continued to cry, releasing bad emotions.

Until she received a call from He Zhizhou.

Her voice was choked up, and He Zhizhou immediately heard something wrong. He asked nervously, "Where are you crying?"

"Small forest... Woo... Don't worry... No one will see it..." Shen Xi said to He Zhizhou with his mobile phone, but just after she finished speaking, a couple of men and women walked by not far away, and the voice was so loud that it entered He Zhizhou's voice in the ear.

Shen Xi quickly held back, and took a few breaths.

He Zhizhou uttered a foul language.

Shen Xi's tears came down again, and he smashed the jar, planning to cry it out.

He Zhizhou could only show softness: "Shen Xi, I'm not scolding you..."

Only then did Shen Xi stop, thinking that he was quite narrow-minded, took out a tissue to wipe away his tears and snot, and asked He Zhizhou intermittently: "What are you calling... What is it?"

The two of them were separated by slight radio waves, and He Zhizhou's serious and deep voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone: "Your father called just now, I hung up, do you need to send a text message?"

Shen Xi was still gasping for air, she said to He Zhizhou: "You tell him directly that I am studying..."

He Zhizhou agreed, and then hung up the phone. In fact, he wanted to ask Shen Xi why she was crying, but after a little thought, she could figure out what troubles she would have. The only troubles were probably "Does Tangtang love herself?" "Why doesn't Tangtang love herself?" "...

According to what Shen Xi said, He Zhizhou replied to Shen's father a text message of "studying". Soon, Father Shen replied the text message: "Come on, Xixi! Xixi is the best!"

Facing the text message, He Zhizhou twitched his lips slightly.

Shen Xi walked around the campus of S University before returning to dormitory 921. With the high popularity of "He Zhizhou", people greeted her along the way. Two of the girls passed by with her carrying fruit, and stopped to ask her if she wanted one.

The two girls seemed to muster up enough courage to come over to strike up a conversation. Shen Xi couldn't bear to refuse, reached out and picked the biggest one from the fruit bag, and then said "sweetly" to them: "Thank you."

The two girls ran away excitedly.

Shen Xi felt that he had done a good deed, and his mood warmed up a bit, so he slowly returned to the men's dormitory with a pear in his hand.

Lin Yutang had already returned, and was coming out of the shower, wiping his hair with a towel in both hands. Shen Xi was angry in his heart, he aimed at Lin Yutang's back, and punched him with the "God's Palm of Tathagata". Lin Yutang was unprepared, he staggered several steps forward, and then turned his head angrily: "He Zhizhou, you are sick!"

Shen Xi squinted at Lin Yutang, took a bite of the pear and said, "Yes, rabies, come and bite me!"

The sudden flames of war in the dormitory made the strong man and the monkey who were happily watching the movie gallop over and stop one by one. Monkey hugged Lin Yutang: "Third brother, why are you so angry?"

The brawny man hugged Shen Xi's waist, and said earnestly: "Boss, if you have something to say, please speak up, if you have any complaints, come to me!"

Shen Xi pursed his lips, and said quite innocently: "I greeted the third child, and I accidentally used too much force, he thought I hit him..."

monkey:"… "

Strong man: "..."

Lin Yutang: "..." There are some people who are so good that they are cheap!

Shen Xi handed the pear he took a few bites to Lin Yutang, and took the initiative to go down the steps: "Want to eat a pear?"

Lin Yutang turned his head.

"It turned out to be a misunderstanding." The monkey patted Lin Yutang's shoulder quickly, "The weather is dry and easy to dry, let's eat watermelon, the boss just bought it in the evening."

Lin Yutang didn't eat the watermelon, but he didn't say anything else, shook off the monkey's hand, and went to the laundry room to wash clothes by himself.

A dormitory turmoil subsided like this. The monkey and the strong man continued to watch the "love action movie" with great interest. Shen Xi walked over to take a look, and then never left again. It improves the viewing quality of Monkey and Brawny.

The strong man turned his head: "Boss, did you do it on purpose?"

Shen Xi apologized: "I'm sorry, I don't watch it often, so I made a bit of a fuss..."

The strong man nodded understandingly. Indeed, Boss He doesn't often watch these films.

When Lin Yutang came back from washing, the monkey invited Lin Yutang to come and see it too. Lin Yutang politely walked over to take a look, and then turned back.

Before going to sleep, Shen Xi was playing games with his mobile phone. The monkey watched the boss play games with the mentality of asking for advice, but when he saw Tetris, he couldn't help being a little strange: "Boss, how do you play this?"

Shen Xi put his long legs crossed on the chair, and answered the monkey's question: "Back to basics, pursue simplicity."

Monkey thought about it, and recently the boss has returned to basics.

In the past few days, the people in the 921 dormitory have had some opinions on "He Zhizhou". The next day after class ended at noon, the strong man said to the monkey: "I want to isolate Boss He. He has gone too far recently!"

The monkey nodded in agreement: "Why don't you isolate first?"

The brawny man shook his head: "I'm a grassroots man, how dare I!"

The monkey sighed: "Then I will dare, my family is in business, and everything is related..."

The two sighed and went back to the dormitory from the cafeteria. Halfway there, the strong man thought that the courier had arrived today, so he asked the monkey to go with him. The strong man bought a "good thing", he only secretly told the monkey. As a result, when I came to the mail room, I found that the courier had been signed for.

Shen Xi helped to sign for the courier. The men's clothing she bought on Taobao arrived, and when she signed for the courier, she saw something of a strong man, so she helped to bring it together.

The things of the strong man are very big, it took Shen Xi a lot of effort to move back to the dormitory, because his hands were itchy, and he also took the box apart...

Ten minutes later, the strong man and the monkey came back, and Shen Xi was sitting on the ground blowing air. The doll was a bit big, and his handsome cheeks were flushed red.

The picture was so irritating that the brawny man almost spit out his heart, and he said, "Whose thing is this..."

Shen Xi raised his head: "Could it be... isn't it your girlfriend?"

The strong man is crazy!

On the second night, the strong man deflated the doll that Shen Xi had blown up with great difficulty, and said while turning it back: "Actually, I just... bought it to see, men are a little curious."

Shen Xi squatted on the ground and looked at the strong man: "Why do you want to return the goods, I never return the goods when I buy them, unless the store sends me a brick, it's not easy for them to do business."

The strong man stuffed the doll back into the box in grief and indignation, and found a random reason: "The quality is not good."

Shen Xi didn't support the strong man to return the product anymore: "You haven't used it, how do you know the quality is not good."

The strong man went crazy again.

Shen Xi smiled from ear to ear. Suddenly, she received a text message from He Zhizhou, with only one sentence - "I'm here."

He Zhizhou is here? Shen Xi immediately ran out of the dormitory building, but she couldn't find He Zhizhou when she looked left and right. She called He Zhizhou: "You're here, where are you?"

He Zhizhou answered the phone without speaking, and after a while, he said, "It's me... you're on your period."
