She Had Fallen

"Xiaoyan, don't you want food and water? My boyfriend has plenty here. As long as you're willing to stay, my boyfriend will cover all your food and drinks from now on!"

Xu Wanting was not embarrassed in the slightest. Instead, she picked up a bottle of mineral water and a whole steaming roast chicken from the table, extending an invitation to Jiangnan Yan.

If she kept this best friend here, she could get two roast chickens!

Although Xu Wanting did not want to share her boyfriend with other women, she knew she had no ability to change Shen Yi's mind.

Shen Yi definitely would not have only her as his woman in the future.

Since she knew she could not stop it, Xu Wanting stopped trying. Otherwise, if she angered Shen Yi, she might go hungry or even be thrown out.

Better to guide than to block!

So, she changed her way of thinking and began helping Shen Yi coax her best friend into his trap.

That way, she could at least get rewards. And if Shen Yi was happy, she might receive even more rewards!

Most importantly, even if Shen Yi had other women in the future, as long as she was his favorite, she could be the first wife!

"Water? And meat?"

Jiangnan Yan's throat bobbed as she instinctively swallowed.

But her mouth was so dry that she could not produce any saliva at all.

Her body's instincts made her want to rush over, seize the water and drink, seize the meat and eat. But her reason restrained her.

If she really rushed over, she might get sent flying by a single punch too...

She might even be punched to death!

She was so thin. She could not take a beating.

"Nanyan! Don't fall for it! We... we're leaving! We're leaving right now!" Bai Xinyi hurriedly spoke up to stop her.

Although she was also starving and thirsty, she would never sell her body and soul for a bite of food!

This woman had tricked them into coming here. She was clearly trying to find a mistress for her boyfriend!

That was far too shameless!

How could there be such a shameless woman?!

Jiangnan Yan also thought Xu Wanting was shameless!

She even wanted to curse her out viciously!

How could you trick your best friend?

I treated you as a friend. What did you take me for??

You actually wanted me to become your boyfriend's mistress????

But...

But that chicken smelled so good!

It smelled this good just from the scent alone. If she took a bite, would she ascend to heaven?

The more Jiangnan Yan thought about it, the more her resolve wavered...

Compared to starving or dying of thirst alive, she seemed more willing to sell her body and soul...

If someone had asked Jiangnan Yan two days ago whether she would rather starve to death or sell her body, she would have viciously humiliated them, then displayed her noble soul and body!

But after being hungry for two days and thirsty for one, her noble soul had been completely corroded!

Especially when she saw the liquid sloshing inside that bottle of water, she felt as though every cell in her body was yearning to consume it!

She had fallen.

"Teacher Bai, I'm sorry, I... I can't walk anymore."

After saying that, Jiangnan Yan's delicate cheeks flushed slightly. Then she ran over to Xu Wanting, wanting water and meat.

Xu Wanting did not give her the water right away. Instead, she smiled and asked, "Xiaoyan, you understand what it means if you drink this bottle of water, right?"

Humiliation. Absolute humiliation!

"I... I understand!"

Jiangnan Yan glanced at Shen Yi. Although being humiliated in front of her teacher made her feel intensely awkward, her hunger and thirst overwhelmed that shame, and she still answered Xu Wanting.

Even if she had to do that sort of thing, it did not matter anymore.

At worst, she could treat it like being bitten by a dog!

And that dog looked rather handsome. He was not all that repulsive.

"Fine. Since you understand, take it and drink, my dear little sister." Xu Wanting smilingly handed Jiangnan Yan a bottle of water, as if giving alms.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Jiangnan Yan excitedly accepted the mineral water, her hand trembling as she twisted the cap.

She had been hungry and thirsty for too long. She had barely any strength left.

Even twisting open a bottle cap took a great deal of effort.

"Heh. What young miss? Aren't you still just like a dog?"

As she watched Jiangnan Yan compromise so easily, Xu Wanting secretly looked down on her while also feeling a little pleased.

She had always been very displeased with Jiangnan Yan, who was constantly putting on an aloof act.

She always looked so cold, as though she were so noble.

And the key was that there were especially many boys pursuing Jiangnan Yan, even more than those pursuing Xu Wanting. That made Xu Wanting even more jealous!

But since Jiangnan Yan's family circumstances were no worse than her own, she could not afford to offend her.

But now, as she watched the woman she had once envied submit before her, submit beneath her boyfriend, the feeling was incredibly satisfying!

Xu Wanting suddenly felt that helping Shen Yi deceive her best friend was actually quite satisfying!

In the future, she would be the first wife, and she could even order Jiangnan Yan, this mistress, around to run errands for her. It was simply wonderful!

Anyway, it was already the apocalypse. No one would dare laugh at her.

In fact,

many women would surely envy her for having food and drink!

If I'd known it felt this good, why did I throw a tantrum last night?

Xu Wanting suddenly felt a little regretful.

Because of her tantrum last night, not only had she failed to eat her fill today, she had also caused Shen Yi to develop a rift with her.

I need to change my way of thinking. I can't be like before, or I definitely won't live well. Someone might even take my place...

If someone else really took her place and she became the second wife, that would be far too humiliating!

She had been with Shen Yi from the very beginning.

And even Shen Yi's first time had been with her.

She deserved to be the first wife!

And if she wanted to become the first wife, she first had to win Shen Yi's favor!

Then, she also had to be able to suppress the other women!!

Shen Yi had no idea that after seeing Jiangnan Yan compromise, Xu Wanting's way of thinking had completely changed.

Of course, this change was a good thing for him!

He would be able to enjoy even better service in the future!

"Nanyan, how could you compromise!?"

Bai Xinyi watched Jiangnan Yan gulping down the water, disappointment in her eyes as she angrily rebuked her for falling.

"Does the knowledge and morality you learned in the past allow you to do something like this?"

"Don't forget what your dream is!"

"How could you do this!!"

Bai Xinyi sounded extremely angry.

But Jiangnan Yan was focused only on drinking water and had no attention to spare for answering...

Only after downing an entire bottle of water in a few gulps did she seem like a fish returned to the sea, brimming with life once more.

Licking her lips, Jiangnan Yan looked at Bai Xinyi with some hesitation and embarrassment.

After all, she had been the one to bring her teacher and friend here, only for them to be deceived by Xu Wanting.

She bore a great deal of responsibility...

But she truly did not want to die.

Just as Jiangnan Yan was feeling guilty and did not know how to speak, Shen Yi suddenly walked over, wrapped an arm around her slim waist, and gave it a casual squeeze.

Jiangnan Yan's face reddened, and she instinctively wanted to struggle.

But then she seemed to think of something. Her struggling gradually slowed, and she quieted down...

"Don't worry. If you follow me, I won't let you go hungry in the future."

After Shen Yi said that, he looked at the obedient Jiangnan Yan and nodded in satisfaction. Then he turned to Bai Xinyi, who was supporting the fat pig, and said, "Beautiful teacher, if you are also willing to stay, I can guarantee your three meals a day and your safety."

"Of course, the premise is that you send away this fat pig who cursed me. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to hold back from beating her to death!"

Shen Yi had already been very restrained.

This fat pig had cursed him the moment she entered. The only reason he had not killed her outright was that he had never killed anyone before and could not make himself harden his heart.

Otherwise, that punch earlier would have blown the fat pig's head apart!

"In your dreams!"

"I, Bai Xinyi, would rather starve to death or die of thirst than sell my body! And I certainly won't abandon my student!"

"A shameless man like you is the kind of person I despise most in this life!"

Bai Xinyi cursed coldly.

Then,

she looked at Jiangnan Yan again. "Nanyan, are you really not coming with me?"

"Teacher Bai, I'm... I'm sorry..."
