Chapter 339 — Nobody Loses Out

"Oh…" Shen Yushu lowered her hands from her eyes, and only then did she come back to her senses. She snatched up the blanket from the sofa and wrapped it around herself. Her face was bright red, like a freshly boiled crayfish.
"Um… the sunlight outside was too glaring, and in here it was too dark—I was briefly blinded. I saw nothing…" Wei Zhao raised both hands in a show of innocence.
"Wei Zhao, the streetlights outside are already on!" Gu Mengyao was not so easily fooled.
"Uh… actually, I was in a hurry and got it backwards! The light inside was too glaring, and outside it was too dark—I was briefly blinded. I saw nothing…" Wei Zhao said awkwardly. "I'll go back to my room first… I need to take a shower…"
"You stay right where you are! Xiaoshu has been seen bare by you—how do you plan to make up for it?" Gu Mengyao was not about to let Wei Zhao off so easily. She felt wronged and uncomfortable inside. It was Shen Yushu who had been seen, so why did she herself feel so awful?
"Uh… we can talk after I've had my shower!" Wei Zhao did not want to provoke Gu Mengyao at this moment; once she calmed down in a bit, she would forget all about it.
"Chewing Gum Bro… rushing off to shower like that, are you going to go jerk off?" Shen Yushu suddenly spoke up in a small, timid voice…
The atmosphere, which had been taut as a drawn bow, was instantly dissolved by that one sentence from Shen Yushu. Gu Mengyao was furious—here I am standing up for you, and look at the kind of question you ask: "Xiaoshu, what nonsense are you saying?"
"I… I just wanted to check whether what the book says is true…" Shen Yushu stuck out her tongue, privately cursing her own loose mouth. Didn't the book say that after boys saw certain stimulating scenes, they would react and get that kind of idea…? And Chewing Gum Bro had been in such a hurry to go back to his room and shower—he must surely have had some improper thought.
"Xiaoshu, is there a screw loose in your head?" Gu Mengyao was about to go mad. "If you don't speak, no one will take you for a mute!"
"Uh… I'll be going back now…" Wei Zhao was also thoroughly embarrassed by Shen Yushu. He wanted to shower because he had been rushing about, dusty and travel-worn, for two days outside, and his body was long since filthy—yet Shen Yushu had misunderstood it as him going off to do some sordid act, and worse, with her as the object of his fantasy…
"Wei Zhao, don't you dare! You're not allowed to make Xiaoshu the object of your dirty thoughts!" Gu Mengyao glared at Wei Zhao.
"I won't… I won't. I'm genuinely covered in sweat and simply want to take a shower. If you don't believe me, you're welcome to come watch!" As Wei Zhao said the last part, he could not help but chuckle.
"Scoundrel!" Gu Mengyao snorted. "As if anyone wants to look at you!"
Wei Zhao fled back to his room in a flash and let out a long breath… That scene just now had been simply too thrilling—why couldn't time just stop? He had no idea when the next time would come.
Of course, Wei Zhao could perfectly well slip upstairs in the dead of night without anyone knowing and take a peek—the mighty general was nothing but a decoration. But that would be far too sleazy, and Wei Zhao disdained to do it.
If he was going to look, then naturally he would look openly and honorably. Even if Shen Yushu had not offered herself up to be seen, a few more accidents like this would still leave Wei Zhao feeling quite delighted…
"Xiaoshu, really—you're a girl, and you've been seen bare. How will you ever get married in the future?" Once Wei Zhao had gone, Gu Mengyao spoke with a note of helplessness.
"Chewing Gum Bro isn't an outsider, you know—he's even kissed me…" Shen Yushu blushed a little herself at the memory of what had just happened.
"Kissed you?" Gu Mengyao was startled, discovering something she had not known. "When did he kiss you?"
