Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more!-Chapter 273 - 191: The Surprise of Zhou Yujie, the Beautiful Dance Teacher and Her Student (2)

Shen Mumu wasn't surprised by the teacher's refusal to add WeChat. To avoid making Wu Wei feel awkward, she offered an explanation on her behalf.

Wu Wei picked up on her meaning, just smiled, and said nothing.

The plane began to taxi, and the flight attendant came over to remind everyone to turn off electronic devices and fasten their seatbelts.

Shen Mumu gave Wu Wei a final smile, then turned her head and started fastening her seatbelt.

Wu Wei also leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

...

At 2:20 PM, the plane landed on time at Ji City Yaoqiang Airport.

After getting off the plane, Wu Wei went to the baggage claim area to wait for his luggage.

At that moment, his phone buzzed a few times—it was a WeChat message from Zhou Yujie.

Wu Wei immediately replied: [I've arrived in Ji City, just got off the plane]

Zhou Yujie replied almost instantly: [That was fast, I'll drive over to pick you up]

Wu Wei: [No need, I'll just take a cab back. You just wash up nicely and wait for me in the room 😏😏]

Zhou Yujie: [Alright, I'll be waiting for you 😘😘]

Just as Wu Wei was about to put away his phone, Shen Mumu walked over and asked, "Chatting with your girlfriend?"

"Yeah."

Wu Wei nodded, locked his phone, and put it back in his pocket.

"I really envy your girlfriend."

Shen Mumu said with a touch of wistfulness in her tone.

"Why?"

Wu Wei asked, following her cue.

"Because she has you as her boyfriend."

Shen Mumu turned slightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she looked at him: "You got her the expensive Mystery of the Sea skincare, treat her so well, and you're tall and handsome."

She said this naturally, with just the right amount of admiration without sounding over-the-top, clearly showing her appreciation.

Just as Wu Wei was about to speak, Shen Mumu suddenly tiptoed forward.

For a moment, they were very close.

Close enough for Wu Wei to clearly see her defined lashes, count the nearly invisible tiny hairs on her cheeks, and smell the faint scent of her body, a fresh floral and fruity aroma.

"And I feel right now..."

Shen Mumu's eyes carefully scanned his face, from his eyebrows to his eyes, from his nose to his lips, her warm breath gently brushing against his cheek as she spoke: "You look even more handsome than last time."

Her voice was low, carrying a sense of intimate whispering.

Wu Wei could distinctly smell the faint minty scent in her breath.

Steadying himself, he didn't dwell on the topic, instead deliberately saying: "You're so pretty, are you really worried about not finding a boyfriend?"

Shen Mumu sighed lightly at his words, pulling back slightly but still staying very close, their clothes touching each other.

Her eyes flickered with a trace of loneliness: "There are many guys who like me, but I don't like them. Maybe I'm just too serious about relationships, and don't want to settle for anything less than true love."

She paused, looking up at Wu Wei with a shy glint in her eye: "But if they were even half as good as you, I'm sure I'd be in a relationship by now."

Shen Mumu's words were direct yet subtle, leaving plenty of room for interpretation.

Wu Wei thought: This little charmer really knows how to talk!

It makes one feel great listening to it!

Back in the day, I probably would've been so flattered I wouldn't even notice, he thought.

Just as he was about to say something, He Xinzhu came over, dragging her suitcase.

"What are you two talking about, so happy?"

He Xinzhu looked at Shen Mumu, then at Wu Wei, with a hint of subtle vigilance in her eyes.

"Nothing much, just chatting casually."

Shen Mumu quickly distanced herself, her face returning to a natural smile, as if the intimate conversation had never happened.

Wu Wei saw this and couldn't help but find it amusing.

He casually asked, "Are you guys headed back to school?"

"Yeah."

Shen Mumu nodded, looking at Wu Wei: "What about you?"

"Kaiyuan Mansion." Wu Wei replied.

"Kaiyuan Mansion?"

Shen Mumu's eyes lit up, her tone filled with just the right amount of amazement: "I've heard about it, it's a famous luxury estate in Ji City, with an average price over 50,000 per square meter. The people who live there are truly wealthy."

He Xinzhu was surprised to hear this, looking Wu Wei up and down.

Wu Wei saw their reactions, smiled, and said nothing.

"Kaiyuan Mansion is not far from our school, it's on the way. How about we share a cab, and we can split the fare?"

Shen Mumu said, while pulling out her phone to open the ride-hailing app.

"No need."

Wu Wei said: "I've already called a car, it'll be here soon. Since it's on the way, you two can ride with me, no splitting the fare needed."

"Thanks a bunch!"

Shen Mumu happily put away her phone: "You're the best!"

She said, naturally reaching out to help Wu Wei with his small bag, her actions as close as those of long-time friends.

Wu Wei slightly turned aside to avoid her: "I can handle it myself."

"Alright then."

Shen Mumu wasn't embarrassed, instead taking He Xinzhu's arm.

He Xinzhu looked at Shen Mumu, then glanced at Wu Wei and opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, just lightly frowned.

After retrieving their luggage, the three headed to the arrivals level, where Wu Wei's pre-booked car was already waiting.

Shen Mumu naturally took a seat in the second row and then patted the spot beside her: "Wu Wei, sit here, there's more room."

Wu Wei shook his head, opening the passenger door: "I'll sit up front."

Disappointment flashed in Shen Mumu's eyes for a moment, but she quickly smiled again: "Alright then."

The car slowly departed the airport, heading towards Ji City Center.

Along the way, Shen Mumu kept striking up conversations with Wu Wei.
