Drowning in the Bathtub

"It's getting late, the dorms will really close soon. Everyone hurry back and rest!"

Liu Mengran glanced at her phone, her heart filled with guilt as she got up, wanting to bolt.

Lu Fan stared at her but didn't stop her, though his mouth didn't spare her.

"Top Campus Belle Liu, you're being uncool. You ate, you drank, and now you want to go home? Do you think that's appropriate?"

"Ah! I... I... I got my period!"

"Liu Mengran, my brain is fine now. I'm not the idiot I used to be. Who the hell gets their period twice a month?"

"I won't stop you if you want to leave. I'll come find you at the girls' dorm after I shower. You can choose between my place or yours."

Liu Mengran was dumbfounded. She really had no way to deal with Lu Fan's scoundrel tactics.

For other male students, getting into the girls' dorm was incredibly difficult, but this guy could just stroll in as if it were flat ground.

If this guy actually managed to chase her to the dorm and lounge on her bed, wouldn't he put on some kind of show for her three roommates that night? The thought of that scene made Liu Mengran feel so ashamed she wanted to die.

Mao Lili, giggling, pulled Li Qian and He Lu along.

"Young Master Lu treated us to a Fruit Sixteen and a seafood barbecue feast today. If it were me, I wouldn't have the face to leave either. Mengran, you should stay and reward Young Master Lu! Of course, if you want to go to the dorm and give us a live performance, we wouldn't mind learning some physiology beforehand."

Mao Lili walked up to Liu Mengran and gave her a strong push. The unstable Top Campus Belle Liu let out a soft cry and fell straight towards Lu Fan.

Lu Fan laughed heartily and gave Mao Lili a knowing look.

"You guys..."

Liu Mengran wasn't actually too resistant to staying the night. What she resisted was staying in front of her three closest roommates. After all, she didn't have the thick skin of that scoundrel Lu Fan.

"Bang!"

The room door was heavily shut by Mao Lili, and with it, Top Campus Belle Liu's escape route was also sealed.

Liu Mengran glared resentfully at the three sisters who had abandoned her. In truth, she hadn't really planned on leaving, it was just female modesty at play.

Looking at the shy and blushing Liu Mengran in his arms, Lu Fan felt his blood boil, his breathing unconsciously growing heavy.

Liu Mengran was no longer a little girl; she knew very well what was about to happen.

The wind died down, the rain stopped, and Lu Fan and Liu Mengran lay nestled together, chatting.

"Lu Fan, what exactly happened to you? How could a fool suddenly change so much? So many unbelievable things have happened to you."

The only regret tonight was that he wanted to try taking a bath in the tub. Unfortunately, his Aunt Lu Fanghua, fearing he might drown himself as a fool, had only installed a shower for him.

"No matter what's happened to me, Mengran Baby, you just need to remember that from now on, I am the only man in your life."

Lu Fan hugged Liu Mengran, whispering sweet nothings to the young girl. Everyone loved hearing sweet nothings, especially from the man they liked, and Liu Mengran was no exception.

His phone suddenly buzzed. Lu Fan picked it up and saw it was Ling Fang, the beautiful dealer he'd added during that online scam.

"Lu Fan, who is that?"

Liu Mengran eyed Lu Fan's phone screen vigilantly. Judging by the WeChat chat avatar, it was clearly a young, pretty girl.

Moreover, Ling Fang's message was very ambiguous. What decent person would message someone they weren't close to, asking "Brother, are you there?"

"Hehe... This is a walking ATM."

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.

Lu Fan chuckled smugly and quickly typed a reply to Ling Fang.

"Missed me, little sister?"

Unexpectedly, Ling Fang sent a voice message. Lu Fan tapped to play it, and Liu Mengran quickly perked up her ears to listen.

"Brother, you haven't come in so long. When will you be free to come play! Little sister has been waiting for you!"

Liu Mengran's eyes instantly widened, and she shot Lu Fan an unfriendly look.

There was no way around it; Ling Fang's words were too suggestive, and any normal person would likely think of the worst.

Lu Fan glanced at the soon-to-explode Liu Mengran in his arms and pressed the voice message to reply:

"Little sister, I have time right now. Let's set something up. Plus, I just got a deposit. Let's do something exciting this time."

Seeing Liu Mengran's dark face about to erupt, Lu Fan finally smiled and began to explain.

"Baby, I'll teach you a lesson today, so you know that what you see and hear with your own eyes isn't always the truth."

Amidst Liu Mengran's slightly confused expression, Lu Fan opened an application on his phone. He had downloaded the APP from a webpage last time.

Liu Mengran looked at the screen full of garish words like "online gambling" and instantly guessed what it was.

"Lu Fan, you're gambling online!"

Extreme disappointment flashed in Liu Mengran's eyes. Online gambling had ruined countless families; such things were all too common on the internet.

Many people's downfall began with online gambling. None of the vices—gambling, pornography, drugs—were good things; they had harmed countless people.

"Mengran Baby, have you forgotten my abilities?"

"In all the days we've known each other, have I ever lost at anything?"

"Uh..."

Thinking back, Liu Mengran realized it was true. Ever since Lu Fan, that fool, started interacting with her a few days ago, one bizarre and unbelievable thing after another had happened to him.

Things that seemed like tall tales, yet Lu Fan had never once suffered a loss.

He'd used Pinxixi's "cut one knife" feature and directly scammed them out of over 200,000, forcing them to shut down the "cut one knife" channel.

Then there was the "cut one knife" deal for a Fruit Sixteen phone at 9.9 yuan. That fool had wiped out their entire inventory, and Lu Fan still had six brand-new, unopened Fruit Sixteen phones at home.

Last night, when they went out to eat, he scanned a code for a red envelope and got over 200,000 from them again. The money seemed to come in as if it were a joke, making it feel unbelievable.

And then there was his magical ability. Although the ability was quite disgusting, it was incredibly effective for messing with people.

Tonight, when she was being harassed and bullied by thugs, she thought she'd have to endure it. But then Lu Fan stepped in and used his ability to completely subdue the three thugs.

Even though the scene was a bit too graphic and disgusting to watch, thinking about it was truly satisfying. Especially when the restaurant owner grabbed the three thugs and beat them soundly, she felt a surge of admiration for Lu Fan at that moment.

Lu Fan put 10,000 yuan on the table in front of Liu Mengran. She wanted to stop him, but then she thought about all the miraculous events that had happened to Lu Fan, and the hand she had extended to stop him retracted.

Lu Fan, familiar with the way, went to Ling Fang's room and casually bet the entire 10,000 yuan on eighteen.

"Wow, welcome to little sister's room, Brother Fan! Aren't you a big shot? Why are you only betting this little?"

There was only Lu Fan in Ling Fang's room. The girl spoke very casually, lacking her usual stiffness. It was clear they had chatted like this before.
