Zhou Yuwen wasn't troubled by his age, but he was a bit sentimental. Zheng Yanyan had gained weight again. Being fat was one thing, but now she couldn't control her weight at all, plopping down on him like a hydraulic jack. Who could handle that? Only Zhou Yuwen could.

However, Zhou Yuwen still teased her, telling Zheng Yanyan not to forget about losing weight in the future.

Zheng Yanyan was defiant, saying she hadn't gained weight.

Then why not weigh yourself on the scale?

Saying it but not daring to do it.

This cheeky girl.

Finally, after feeding these two girls, Zhou Yuwen could catch a breath and poured a five-millimeter glass of whiskey into a crystal-clear octagonal cup.

He sipped it bit by bit while enjoying the night view outside the window.

As a thirty-year-old man, the youthful passion of the young was no longer what Zhou Yuwen sought. Instead, he liked the tranquility that followed the passion.

A time that belonged to himself.

While Zhou Yuwen was sitting by the window, enjoying this moment of peace with tea.

At that moment, Shen Yu walked out in her pajamas, absentmindedly looking at him.

"Still not sleeping this late?" Zhou Yuwen's words brought Shen Yu back from her thoughts.

"Ah,"

Shen Yu regained her clarity and looked at Zhou Yuwen. Zhou Yuwen, who had just finished his tasks in the room, wore a clean and simple white shirt with comfortable linen pants. Zhou Yuwen had a good figure, appearing fresh and neat, coupled with his handsome appearance, just like at the beginning of the freshman year.

Shen Yu still remembered the first time she met Zhou Yuwen, when he pretended to be her senior. His humorous and witty manner made Shen Yu admire him greatly.

At that time, Shen Yu had just started university and was curious about everything. Zhou Yuwen's look was exactly what she imagined a university senior to be like, so Shen Yu had a crush on him. Even when Zhou Yuwen's senior status was later exposed, his remarkable abilities still captivated her.

Looking back, after a year in college, perhaps because she met Zhou Yuwen too early, no other boy could catch Shen Yu's eye.

Even Li Shiqi knew to pursue her happiness, so why couldn't she?

"Aren't you still awake?" Shen Yu retorted to Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen couldn't help but laugh twice at this, saying he had trouble sleeping.

"Just having a little drink."

As he spoke, Zhou Yuwen shook the octagonal cup in his hand.

Shen Yu noticed the whiskey bottle beside him and asked, "Alcohol?"

"Mm."

"What does it taste like?" Shen Yu asked again.

Zhou Yuwen caught the curiosity in her eyes and offered, "Would you like to try it?"

"Can I?"

So Zhou Yuwen poured a small glass for Shen Yu, just enough to cover the bottom, roughly measuring about five millimeters in height.

After pouring, the two clinked glasses by the window, enjoying the rare solitude. Shen Yu took a small sip; the taste was somewhat subtle, and she wasn't quite used to it.

Zhou Yuwen smiled and said, the first time drinking is always like this.

Shen Yu explained that she didn't drink much.

The only two times she drank in college were with him and Su Qing and the others.

Hearing this, Zhou Yuwen gave an "oh" and smiled faintly, teasing, "It shows you're a good girl."

Shen Yu blushed immediately and said she wasn't very good and used to be naughty and disobedient.

For example, in high school, as a class officer, the teacher asked her to manage the class's self-study discipline. Actually, at that time, she was also not seriously doing homework and often daydreaming, but when the teacher returned, he said, our class's Shen Yu is the most self-disciplined.

Thinking back now, it's a bit embarrassing.

"And that time."

Before Zhou Yuwen could speak, Shen Yu continued with another story to prove she wasn't that well-behaved.

And Zhou Yuwen just listened on the side, as Shen Yu talked, she seemed to become happy on her own, finishing the whiskey in her glass in one gulp, finding it not bad.

Just that little bit of alcohol, what's the big deal?

After drinking, Shen Yu smacked her lips and even laughed, saying, the taste was nice.

"Pour me a bit more," Shen Yu said.

Zhou Yuwen cautioned that whiskey isn't meant to be drunk like that—you might not notice, but it has a strong aftereffect.

Shen Yu's cheeks already revealed two rosy streaks, but she didn't seem to notice, saying, "Really? Look, I'm perfectly fine, right?"

Zhou Yuwen, hearing this, said, now I've realized you're indeed not that well-behaved.

Shen Yu, using a goading tactic, said, "You're not reluctant about your drink, are you? Is it expensive?"

Zhou Yuwen thought for a moment, admitting it wasn't cheap.

But since Shen Yu put it that way, Zhou Yuwen naturally didn't say much, handing the bottle to Shen Yu, "Then pour it yourself."

"You said it, don't regret it." Shen Yu quickly grabbed the bottle, fearing Zhou Yuwen might regret it.

So she poured herself half a glass, with Zhou Yuwen on the side saying okay, okay, if you drink that half glass, you probably won't see tomorrow morning.

Shen Yu retorted, saying Zhou Yuwen underestimated her.

She has never slept in.

"Mr. Zhou, it's a rare opportunity to drink with you tonight in this beautiful setting." Shen Yu raised her glass, looking genuinely poised.

Her cheeks had become even rosier, and her eyes sparkled like dark stars.
