Qi Sheng’s photography skills were unanimously praised by the girls.

Even Tao Siyao, who loved to play devil’s advocate with Qi Sheng, had to admit his photography skills were amazing.

Almost every picture was on par with their professionally edited photos, which naturally made the whole travel experience perfect.

’That damn girl really is lucky. I hope he’s not a scumbag.’

Watching Qi Sheng intently directing Du Xinxin’s poses, Tao Siyao grew more and more envious of her.

She might have been stubborn about it before,

but in her social circle, there was really no one who could compare to Qi Sheng.

In any single area, Qi Sheng wasn’t the absolute best.

But when you put it all together, he was simply unbeatable!

Having a boyfriend like that would give you so much face when you go out.

Too bad he was her best friend’s boyfriend!

As the fiercely loyal Tao Siyao of Dorm 303, how could she possibly steal Du Xinxin’s boyfriend?

Never in a million years!

Tao Siyao silently made a vow.

Seeing that Pan Yinuo still hadn’t come out, she walked into the second bedroom, a little puzzled.

"Nuonuo?"

"Ah... Yaoyao, what are you doing in here?"

Pan Yinuo had been showering very slowly because she was constantly replaying the scenes from the car in her mind.

There was shyness and excitement, but also guilt and unease, and even a tiny hint of sweetness.

It was a complex, indescribable feeling, and one she couldn’t confide in anyone about.

"I saw you hadn’t come out, so I came to check on you. Are you not feeling well?"

Tao Siyao asked, finding it a bit strange.

Pan Yinuo had been perfectly fine when they arrived.

Why had she started acting so weird after getting out of the car?

"I’m fine. It was just too hot in the car, and I got really sweaty."

"Can you grab an outfit for me? I need something with a high collar."

Pan Yinuo didn’t dare delay any longer, afraid that the perceptive Tao Siyao would suspect something about her and Qi Sheng. She started showering faster.

"Okay, but it’s so hot. Wouldn’t it be better to wear something cooler?"

Tao Siyao would never have dreamed that Qi Sheng would be bold enough to touch Pan Yinuo’s thigh in the car.

"No!"

Pan Yinuo cried out, then, realizing her reaction was too sensitive, she quickly lowered her voice.

"You know my figure. Xinxin would get mad if she saw me wearing something with a low neckline."

"That’s true. I’m so jealous of your bombshell physique."

Tao Siyao opened Pan Yinuo’s suitcase.

Seeing the underwear that was much more magnificent than her own, she felt a pang of envy as she paired it with a T-shirt and shorts.

"I don’t want to be like this either. Xinxin’s figure is great. She looks good in anything and doesn’t attract attention on the street."

Pan Yinuo walked out of the bathroom, drying her wet hair.

Her face was fair and completely free of makeup.

Yet it gave her a delicate and fragile air that made you want to pull her into a tight hug and cherish her.

"Tsk, the contrast between your physique and your aura is just too much!"

"Even I, as a woman, am completely smitten."

"Promise me you won’t let some other scumbag have you for cheap. Wait for me to make money and I’ll take care of you."

Tao Siyao couldn’t resist copping a feel, indulging in the very thing Qi Sheng most wanted to experience. The feeling was indescribably gratifying.

"No way. I don’t even like women. I’m definitely going to be a wife and mother. Otherwise, my grandma would kill me."

Pan Yinuo was already used to Tao Siyao copping a feel.

’She couldn’t understand why Tao Siyao always liked to grope her. It’s not like Tao Siyao didn’t have her own.’

"Aaaah! I hate that I’m not a man! I would’ve married you and Xinxin first thing."

"One to have babies and cook, and the other for romance."

Seeing Pan Yinuo’s fair, lovely shoulders, Tao Siyao couldn’t help but touch them. So smooth and nice.

"Alright, let’s hurry up and go out. Xinxin didn’t eat anything on the plane. She insisted on having a big feast after we landed, so she must be starving."

No matter the situation, Pan Yinuo always thought of others first.

Whether she herself was wronged was always secondary.

For the person on the receiving end, this kind of people-pleasing personality was simply the best.

"Yeah, yeah, let’s go."

Tao Siyao linked arms with Pan Yinuo, and they left the bedroom, talking and laughing.

She completely failed to notice the intimate apparel that Pan Yinuo had secretly hidden away.

In the courtyard, Qi Sheng and Du Xinxin had stopped taking pictures.

Instead, they were wrapped in an embrace, swapping saliva.

"That’s enough, you two! We haven’t even eaten dinner, and I’m already full from all your PDA."

Tao Siyao really couldn’t stand Du Xinxin’s need to be constantly kissing.

Especially when she saw the two of them approaching, that girl actually started kissing with even more fervor.

Having been single since birth for nineteen years, she truly couldn’t comprehend the thought process of a young girl in love like Du Xinxin.

"None of your business."

Du Xinxin’s face was flushed and she was breathing heavily. She gave Tao Siyao a cute eye-roll.

’Back in the dorm, she’s always teasing me for having the smallest cup size.’

’If she’s so tough, let’s bring out our boyfriends and see who’s bigger, huh?’

’Oh, I almost forgot.’

’Tao Siyao and Pan Yinuo don’t have boyfriends.’

’Tsk tsk, what a pathetic pair.’

’Almost twenty and still no boyfriend. They might as well just be locked together forever, then.’

Du Xinxin thought to herself slyly, making herself giggle.

"Dinner is ready. Let’s head over now."

Qi Sheng had just instructed the butler to notify the kitchen to prepare a lavish dinner.

It was to be the kickoff for their Sanya trip.

When they arrived at the dining room, there was a large round table with a lazy Susan that could seat eight people.

It was laden with over a dozen dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted incredible.

From king crab to Boston lobster, all sorts of rare ingredients appeared on the table as if they were free.

"Wow, this meal must have cost several thousand, right?"

Tao Siyao was well aware of how high the prices were in Sanya.

’The hotel alone is over thirty thousand a night, and then there’s food, drinks, and entertainment...’

’Over these five days, he’s probably going to spend two or three hundred thousand.’

She had originally planned to buy Qi Sheng a gift in the thirty to forty thousand range as a thank-you for inviting them.

’Now it seems that might not be enough.’

’He’s spending two or three hundred thousand, so even if you split it, that’s fifty to sixty thousand per person.’

Although Tao Siyao came from a well-off family and got a monthly allowance of fifty thousand yuan,

her spending was also high. She often bought luxury skincare products and newly released clothes.

Occasionally, she would also get skin treatments.

So, she basically spent all her money every month.

She had even refused the car her family wanted to get her because she really couldn’t afford the gas.

’It’s one thing for me, but what about Pan Yinuo?’

’Sure, Qi Sheng is their best friend’s boyfriend,’

’but they couldn’t just let him spend so much money on them.’

’A proper return gift is definitely necessary.’

’Maybe I’ll have to eat dirt for the next two months.’

’I could just bite the bullet, buy Qi Sheng an expensive gift, and cover Pan Yinuo’s share too?’

Tao Siyao’s mind was racing with these thoughts.

She had no idea that Qi Sheng already considered Pan Yinuo a conquest waiting to happen.

’Spending a little money on his soon-to-be girlfriend? Isn’t that perfectly normal?’

He even had some sly ideas about her, Tao Siyao.

Due to his current limitations, Qi Sheng didn’t dare reveal his ambitions just yet.

’Once he’s powerful enough, he’ll definitely conquer Tao Siyao as well.’

Although the difficulty of conquering Tao Siyao would certainly be higher, a higher difficulty meant a greater challenge.
