Chapter 311: Being Pretty Means Going Bad
The next day.
Qin Yu was woken by the urge to urinate and staggeringly made his way to the bathroom door, pushing it open and walking in.
"Ah... Qin Yu, what are you doing?"
A sharp scream rang out, instantly banishing his sleepiness.
"Uh... sorry, sorry...."
Qin Yu was stunned too, having gotten used to living alone; he wasn't quite adjusted to racing a woman to the bathroom when he was in a hurry in the morning.
He still thought he was in his shack in the urban village.
Seeing Yan Mingyu glaring at him with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, he also felt somewhat awkward.
She was wrapped in a bathrobe, sitting on the toilet, exposing two snow-white and round thighs that were profoundly enticing.
"Then why don't you go out? What are you standing there for?"
Yan Mingyu wished she could grab a knife and stab him a few times, her mouth saying sorry, but where were his eyes looking?
Even if they were a couple, they hadn't reached the stage where they could freely look at each other's bodies, right?
"Oh... oh...."
Qin Yu quickly closed the door behind him and made a break for it.
His heart was pounding furiously, as if he had seen something, yet not quite clearly. This vague feeling was too exhilarating.
Lingling....
At that moment, his phone started ringing; it was from Qin Jianjun.
Having had a falling out with Zhou Nannan at midday yesterday, Qin Yu was considering visiting his father today. He knew those mother and daughter weren't easy to deal with, and after provoking them, they might take their anger out on his father. Yet, he didn't expect his father to call first.
"Dad, Zhou Cuiping and Zhou Nannan haven't been bothering you, have they?"
Qin Yu asked straight away after answering the call.
"No, but it seems like Nannan has changed into a different person, become more beautiful, and her clothes are very fashionable. I'm worried that the child is traumatized and might go down the wrong path. Why not come over? Our family should sit down and have a calm and proper conversation!"
Concern filled Qin Jianjun's voice. He had always been an honest and traditional man, feeling that once a woman became beautiful, it was definitely a sign she was starting to "go bad."
"Alright, I'll come over!"
Qin Yu agreed to come.
He didn't care whether Zhou Nannan went down the wrong path or not; he was concerned about his father. Besides, hadn't Zhou Nannan already walked down a "wrong path"?
In the past, she nearly became the mistress of her old classmate, Zhang Bin.
It's hard to change one's true nature!
Qin Yu shook his head, feeling a deep aversion for the woman, Zhou Nannan.
"Squeak..."
"I'm done, you can go now!"
Yan Mingyu pushed open the bathroom door and stepped out. She knew Qin Yu hadn't done it on purpose, and she didn't bring up the incident again.
After all, they were husband and wife, destined to become one eventually; they had to see each other sooner or later.
"Hmm, then you get dressed, and I'll take you to the office soon!"
After Qin Yu spoke, he entered the bathroom and cheerfully relieved himself.
By the time he came out, Yan Mingyu had already changed her clothes. After having breakfast opposite the hotel, the two drove to the office.
Later, Qin Yu arrived at the hotel where his father and Zhou Cuiping were staying.
Just after getting out of the car, he saw Zhou Nannan and her mother walking out the door. Just like his father had described, Zhou Nannan had changed a lot, her hair was obviously styled with care, and the clothes she wore were high-end.
Having spent so much time with Yan Mingyu, Qin Yu was familiar with luxury brands by now; he estimated that the handbag she was carrying was worth over a hundred thousand.
Could it be that in just one day, this woman had found herself another wealthy patron?
"Yo, Brother Yu..."
Zhou Nannan's expression no longer carried its previous respect but was instead sarcastic.
"Found another rich man to latch onto?"
Qin Yu frowned and asked Zhou Nannan in a lukewarm tone.
"Qin Yu, what do you mean by that? Do you really see me, Zhou Nannan, as the type of woman who would sell her body for money?"
Zhou Nannan's face darkened instantly. Now, she was not at all afraid of falling out with Qin Yu.
Yet, she had learned to keep a low profile and didn't reveal the fact that she was about to become the missus of the Capital City Qin Family. Even Zhou Cuiping didn't know. She simply said she had met an old classmate whose company needed people, and she would go to Capital City with that classmate to strive for a better future, having received a year's salary in advance.
"You're not seriously telling me you won the lottery!"
Qin Yu didn't spare Zhou Nannan, biting back without a shred of courtesy.
"Fine, fine... Qin Yu, don't think you're the only capable person in the world, the only one who can make money, while everyone else is insignificantly low. Dare you wait while I make a phone call!"
Zhou Nannan had mentioned to Qing Yi the day before to teach Qin Yu a lesson. Since this damned guy had come right to her doorstep, she decided to call Qing Yi over.
"Go on, hurry up and call. I'm really curious to see which 'bigshot deity' you can summon!"
Qin Yu shrugged nonchalantly.
In the East Sea, there were only a few wealthy and powerful people, aside from the Yan Family, the Liu Family, and the other reclusive, well-regarded families. It was unlikely they would have anything to do with someone of Zhou Nannan's ilk.
"Hmph, you won't know how to cry when the time comes!"
Zhou Nannan glared at Qin Yu fiercely and took out her phone to send Qing Yi a message: Qin Yu is here with me, come teach him a lesson.
I'm busy, bring him to my villa!
Qing Yi responded.
She was quite willing to stand up for Zhou Nannan, but she was not someone to come and go at a simple summons.
Okay.
After replying, Zhou Nannan thought for a moment, then said to Qin Yu, "You're so full of yourself, daring to barge into the Liu family's villa alone. Do you dare to go somewhere with me? I'll let you understand that there's always someone better out there, a higher sky above!"
"You're not about to tell me you know Miyamoto Kazuto, are you?"
Qin Yu felt that Miyamoto Kazuto was the only one in the East Sea he needed to be wary of.
"Miyamoto Kazuto, who's that?"
Zhou Nannan looked puzzled and said impatiently, "Just tell me if you dare to go or not!"
"What's there not to dare? Lead the way!"
Qin Yu agreed promptly.
If he didn't put this woman in her place, she might just stir up more trouble behind his back.
"Hmph, Mom, you can go back now!"

Zhou Nannan definitely wouldn't bring Zhou Cuiping to meet Qing Yi.
"Ah, okay!"
Zhou Cuiping gave Qin Yu a somewhat complicated look before entering the hotel.
"Taxi!"
Zhou Nannan waved her hand and hailed a taxi, climbing in.
Qin Yu followed behind in his BMW.
About half an hour later, the taxi stopped in front of the villa rented by Qing Yi.
"Whose villa is this?"
Qin Yu inspected the villa carefully; it was average in size and didn't seem to belong to any of East Sea's tycoons.
If it were just an average rich person, where did Zhou Nannan get her confidence from?
Feeling puzzled, Qin Yu saw Zhou Nannan get out of the taxi and look at him with a challenging face. He pushed the car door open and followed suit.
"What, too scared to move now?"
Zhou Nannan sneered coldly.
"What would I be afraid of?"
Qin Yu shrugged and followed Zhou Nannan through the villa's gate. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw an Audi with a Capital City license plate parked near the garage door.
Hmm?
That looks familiar.
Qin Yu remembered the line of Audis with Capital City plates he had seen at the seafood market with his sister.
Could it be, the woman who had defeated him without giving him a chance to fight back was living here?
But what was Zhou Nannan's relationship with her?
While Qin Yu was still confused, Qing Yi, wearing a black mask, had already walked out from the main hall.
"Sister Qing Yi!"
Zhou Nannan hurriedly called out.
