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

The more I listened, the more my heart sank.

It turned out that Liang Xue was still a vain girl after all.

Of course, Guo Zhicheng had brought this upon himself. In just a few days, he had already spent a few thousand yuan on Liang Xue. If she really became his girlfriend, then he would not be able to avoid turning into a walking ATM machine.

It suddenly became quiet. After a long while, Liang Xue said coldly, "Are you saying that you're the only one spending money? Those two pairs of socks I bought for you were both branded. Didn't you use them too?"

These words sounded familiar. Back when she wanted me to help her pay off her campus loan, she had treated me like this. Now, it was Guo Zhicheng's turn.

Guo Zhicheng was obviously not as gullible as I was. He said angrily, "Those two pairs of socks add up to only a little. Stop fooling around with me. Let's go. Tonight, either you come with me to my house, or I'll cut all ties with you!"
