Thousand Autumns Clear Waters

At 11 p.m., the woman next door left work early again. I am certain that she did not come back alone.
Why did I say 'again'?
My name is Zhang Lu. Not long ago, in order to better prepare for the university entrance exam, I moved out of my school hostel. After I moved into this rented place, I realized that this building is actually the "hostel" of the ladies who work in the nightclub next door. Lin Xiaoya, my neighbor, usually gets off work at around 1 or 2 a.m. Therefore, every time she comes home early, it means that she has found herself a customer.
The man moans, "Quickly, babe. I can't wait."  
Lin Xiaoya replies, "There's no need to rush. I am not the only one living here."
Usually, I would put on my headphones and pretend that I can't hear a thing. However, today, I subconsciously move towards the wall. Behind the poster left behind by the previous tenant, there is a tiny hole through which I can see the other side. I approach the hole and see Lin Xiaoya next door suddenly turn her head around and smile at me enchantingly.  

All Those Years

Chen Hanwei's eyes lit up and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not planning to use you for anything difficult. After all, you're really a good-for-nothing. Even last night, you almost..."

I did not know whether to be happy or uncomfortable.

After all, being called a good-for-nothing was not that great...

Chen Hanwei paused and said, "What's the relationship between you and Xia Qingrou?"

I was stunned for a moment before I suddenly recalled that when I first met this fellow yesterday, he had also mentioned Teacher Xia.

Could it be that his motive was related to Teacher Xia?

I pondered in my heart before replying perfunctorily, "She's a teacher, and I'm a student. That's all."

However, Chen Hanwei revealed a different expression. "Heh, I've been working with her for a few years, so I know how she is. She's a nice person, but she's not so nice that she treats any student she doesn't know so well."
