Chapter 150 - You Sleep on the Couch and I Sleep on the Bed

Editor: Seliniaki Ilikia

Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue sat in the car freezing since they couldn't turn on the heater due to the oil leak. 

Wei Xingyue had already contacted someone to pick her up, but it had almost been an hour already and they couldn't see any lights in the distance. 

It was dark and cold. At first, the two of them kept their distance, but as time progressed they couldn't care less due to the frigid temperature and hugged each other for warmth. 

During that time, Shi Lei was smart and asked if Wei Xingyue had a thin pipe in the car. He looked around and found one, and then attempted to use it as a siphon to pump some of the gas on the ground back up into the tank, finally starting the car. Since it was still leaking, the heater could only function for a short period of time and warm them up slightly. 

Even though he did that, they stilled hugged each other tightly. Now that they had already broken a few boundaries, the second hug seemed exceptionally easy. They hugged without any hesitation or embarrassment and occasionally pecked each other on the lips. 

After everything that had happened, the Mustang had also run out of oil. Luckily, they saw faint lights in the distance and the low roar of an engine sounded in the quiet night. 

A few minutes later, a car rushed toward them. At the same time, Wei Xingyue's phone rang. 

The person in the car saw the Mustang in the empty area and she told them that they were on an empty space next to the road. The person looked around and found the Alfa Romeo. 

"Miss…" The person called with worry as soon as he got out of the car. 

Wei Xingyue nodded and pulled Shi Lei into the back seat of the Cherokee. "Old Li, hurry up and go!" She ordered. "I'll tell someone else to get the car tomorrow. Do you have any blankets in the car? I'm freezing!" 

The driver quickly found two blankets. When he passed one to Shi Lei, he gave him a deep glance. 

Shi Lei couldn't care less, quickly wrapping himself in its warmth. The car started, driving away and quickly entering the highway. 

Of course, it was impossible for this Old Li to drive as fast as Wei Xingyue because the Cherokee didn't have the ability to do so. After two hours, Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue were finally back in Wu Dong city. 

Although it was already four in the morning and almost dawn, just looking at the city filled with star-like lights made Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue feel relieved. 

Wei Xingyue told driver Li to drop them off around Shi Lei's place and found an excuse to tell him to leave. 

Old Li seemed unwilling to do so and whispered something to Wei Xingyue. She glowered at him and said, "Since when do I need you to tell me what to do? Don't use my father to pressure me. I will explain it to him. There's nothing going on between us. I'll go back by myself tomorrow!" 

Old Li didn't dare say anything else and drove his Cherokee away. 

They found a McDonald's which was opened 24/7 and drank a glass of warm milk and ate a hamburger, finally regaining their warmth. 

Walking out of the McDonald's, Shi Lei asked Wei Xingyue, "Uh, why aren't you going back? Why didn't you tell your driver to take you home?" 

"Nah, we're going back to your place!" She replied, yawning.

Shi Lei was surprised and covered his chest with his arms. "What do you want?" 

"Want your ass! Do you really think I'd take advantage of you? I want sleep on a bed and you can sleep on the couch!" 

Shi Lei was speechless. She sounded so righteous about occupying someone else's home. She had to be insane. 

But glancing at Wei Xingyue's thin lips, Shi Lei thought that although this woman was crazy, she didn't taste bad. Her lips were thin but they felt comfortable to kiss. Oh, and her chest. Hmm, so soft, smells nice too…

When they walked into the apartment, the security guards smiled knowingly again but they were scared of Shi Lei scolding them so they could only steal glances in secret. 

After they walked into the room, Wei Xingyue headed straight for the bathroom and was followed by the sound of running water. 

Shi Lei could only sit on the couch and wait for her to finish showering. I want to take a shower, too. Why can't you tell me to shower together with you?

Of course, that was only a thought. Not long after, the water stopped and Shi Lei stared in astonishment as Wei Xingyue came out with his towel wrapped around her body. 

"What are you looking at?" Wei Xingyue glared at him with wide opened eyes. 

Woman, if you don't want people to look, then don't dress like that! Oh, you are not even dressed. Only wrapped. It's not like you are naked or anything, yet you don't let me look? Do you think I'm blind? 

"Oh, do I have to wear those clothes to bed?" Wei Xingyue rolled her eyes at Shi Lei. Then she climbed onto the bed and settled under the blanket. 

She might've hesitated a bit, but Wei Xingyue decided to keep her faith in Shi Lei, moving around under the blankets a few times before throwing the towel out. 

Well, it wasn't about whether she trusted him or not. As soon as Wei Xingyue appeared in front of Shi Lei, it meant that she trusted him, or at least in this area. Honestly, they'd waited in the car for so long and they'd kissed for so long that it didn't really matter anymore. Although Wei Xingyue was able to defend herself and could definitely win against Shi Lei, in the end, he was still a man. If he wanted to do something by force, Wei Xingyue may have been unable to stop it. There was a limit to her power but she wouldn't necessarily fight back. That was the key point. 

In that situation, Shi Lei only hugged her. Even the teasing with the lips were all done by Wei Xingyue because Shi Lei didn't dare go overboard. That proved that although the guy was a bastard, he knew exactly what he should and shouldn't do. 

That kind of person was the most trustworthy. 

However, Shi Lei was on the verge of a breakdown. That was the only towel he had in his house and it was his. Wei Xingyue didn't mind using it but Shi Lei thought that it was inappropriate for him to use it after her. 

Hand towel then!

Shi Lei walked into the bathroom. He wanted a warm shower. He was about to fall asleep on the spot, so the couch would work, but only after the shower. 

Then he realized that his hand towel had been thrown into the garbage can. 

If it was in the garbage can in the room, perhaps he would have the courage to pick it out, soak it in the water, clean it, and then use it. But the garbage can in the bathroom…

He stormed into the room and yelled at Wei Xingyue, who was in bed, "Why did you throw my towel away?" 

Wei Xingyue blanked out for a second and she blushed. She was too embarrassed to ask and toughly replied, "So? It's only a towel. Why are you yelling at me?" 

"What am I going to use if you threw that away?" 

"I gave you your towel back!" 

"But you wrapped your body with it earlier!" 

"What, are you saying I'm dirty?!" Wei Xingyue was also unhappy and she quickly understood why Shi Lei didn't want to use the towel. Glancing back at him, she saw that he was already too embarrassed to think about it. 

Wei Xingyue laughed loudly as she shifted under the blankets. She spoke in a voice what sounded like she was choking to death. "Are you going to imagine those things when you use the towel I used before? Then…" Wei Xingyue stole a glance at Shi Lei's crotch. 

Shi Lei rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Nevermind, I'm not going to shower! Time to sleep!" He lay down on the couch, but got up to get a few thick blankets. Then, he turned off the lights and lay down again. 

Wei Xingyue's voice sounded in the dark. "I'm warning you, if you dare to come onto the bed with any excuses, don't blame me for chopping your balls off!" 

Unconvinced, Shi Lei said, "Worry about that after I rape you first! Think about what situation you are in right now!" 

Wei Xingyue smiled brightly and fell asleep in relief. 

Chapter 151 - Check the Level of Intimacy

When Shi Lei woke up, Wei Xingyue had disappeared and he assumed that she left after getting some sleep. From what she said to driver Li, she had to explain to her family about what happened that morning with Shi Lei, and it wasn't strange for her to leave early. 

Wandering to the bathroom casually, Shi Lei planned to brush teeth and wash his face, but he noticed a red lipstick stain on his cheek. 

Shi Lei was troubled. Did this crazy woman really fall in love with me? Although he had to admit that she was rather attractive and he couldn't deny that he had fun with her, if he was going to be pestered by this crazy woman, Shi Lei thought that he would soon go insane himself. 

Wiping the lipstick off  his cheek, Shi Lei brushed his teeth and washed his face, realizing once again that his hand towel was gone. He could only use the bath towel to dry his face. As expected, his brain couldn't avoid recalling Wei Xingyue wrapped in this and especially what her body looked like under it. 

Shi Lei sighed deeply. He could only throw the towel away. 

The doorbell rang. Shi Lei checked and saw that it was a delivery man from the app for second hand goods. The other side had two parcels for him. Shi Lei unlocked the door to let him in. 

Both the earphones and the player were there. Shi Lei was eager to know whether anything would change with such an expensive player and earphones. 

After he signed for the packages, he realized that with such a high quality player, it had to be paired with high quality music files in order to reach its maximum performance capability. Other than the quality of player and the effects of the sound frequency, the compression ratio of the mp3 was key. 

After some brief research, he learned that high quality audio files had higher frequencies that were absent in lower quality files, making them greater in size but of much higher quality. They were difficult to find and could only be downloaded at certain professional forums and were all pirated versions. 

After experiencing the pirated version, Shi Lei decided that he absolutely hated it. He chose to give up without hesitation since the purpose in the end was to spend money. Hence, he transferred some of the songs from the music websites he had paid for into the player and kept the player at home while plugging the earphones into his phone. Mhm, it was indeed a waste  to use a pair of earphones worth a few thousand for only his phone. But I have the money and I'm fine with doing so. What's wrong with that? 

Although he was hyped, Shi Lei remembered that he had to ask how much remained in this week's sum. He quickly found an empty self-service ATM and inserted the black card. 

When the Scepter appeared, it asked without Shi Lei having to say anything. "Did you come to ask how much money you have left this week?" 

Shi Lei thought that the Scepter was talking more initiative. It seemed to say less useless things, instead going straight for the main topic. 

But now he didn't have the time to converse casually. He didn't have any other questions. "Yes. How much do I have left?" 

The Scepter quickly gave him a number: "Out of the 100,000 sum this week, you, stupid marmot, have 3,072 yuan left!" 

Shi Lei blinked in surprised. So the meal with Wei Xingyue counted? And the chain of Xingyue Puti, too. And even the barbeque. Shi Lei was very sensitive on how much money he'd spent, so as soon as he heard the number, he knew what had happened. 

"Originally, the money you spent with Wei Xingyue shouldn't be counted into the sum, but since your relationship with her developed enough and you, the stupid marmot, was favoured by a beauty like Wei Xingyue, you only have about 3,000 yuan left. You need to work harder. We're more than 300,000 words into the story and you are still struggling so much to spend 100,000 per week. What would the readers think? (Please automatically filter out the last two sentences)" 

Shi Lei ignored the Scepter's criticism and only thought that there was something strange. He quickly figured out the problem and said, "Wait, there's a loophole in your words!" "You stupid marmot, did you come to play find the difference? How can you find a loophole in what I say every single time?" The Scepter said in disdain.

Shi Lei scratched his head and chuckled. "Nah, I'm just very sensitive. Especially whenever I communicate with you, since it's a matter of life and death. You don't want to me die this early because you definitely hope to see me go further than any of those seniors who came before me, right?" 

The Scepter was defeated by these words. It was true that the Black Card wished to see an employee who could advance further from the very beginning. 

"Fine. Tell me, what's the loophole?" 

Shi Lei organized his thoughts and said, "You see, I met Wei Xingyue on Saturday and the sum hadn't been refreshed at that time. She was the only one who spent money and I received compensation for the medical fees. The second time we met was on Sunday after the sum was refreshed. But I was sure that we weren't friends at the time. Not even acquaintances. I treated her to barbeque and theoretically, that consumption shouldn't have been counted in the sum. But now that you tell me I only have 3,072 yuan left, this means that the barbecue was counted."  

"And?" The Scepter asked.

"You just said that I was favoured by a beauty like Wei Xingyue, which meant that Sunday night or early Monday morning, after she drank at my place, we might have had physical contact because of the alcohol, and hence the Black Card judged our relationship to be that of friends. So the chain of Xingyue Puti I bought on Monday that she forcefully took and the dinner I treated her to were both counted. This seems logical. Going by what you said, our relationship would have exceeded that of friends last night. Because Wei Xingyue took the initiative and kissed me, teased me a few times, and even let me smell her chest. So my judgement is different. The Black Card decided that we are friends last night. If that's the case, why were the consumptions from before counted?"

The Scepter was extremely surprised. It had never expected Shi Lei to sort out the relationship so clearly. 

After a moment of silence, he was forced to give an explanation. "Within the period of consumption, if the employee can raise the intimacy to the level of friends or above, then every consumption with them will be counted within the sum." 

Shi Lei clapped with joy. "So whether I'm friends with someone or whether or not I can spend money on that person depends on the the level of intimacy. As long as I reach a certain level of intimacy with them, I can spend money on them, right?!" 

The Scepter was defeated by Shi Lei's clear mind again. "You are right. I now see that you have even more potential to surpass your seniors." 

"Hahaha! In other words, the level of intimacy is a fixed measurement and not decided by you nor the Black Card, but more like a formula. I can increase the level of intimacy through constant contact or certain actions! Then can I check how much intimacy I have with someone at my current level?"
