Sun Changfa employed Legalist principles of governance, primarily focusing on checks and balances and control. He enjoyed projecting an image of an "emperor" in front of women, especially beautiful ones. To this end, he used every dirty trick in the book to control his women. For example, he used photographs and DV cameras to control Teacher Xiaoying, preventing her from straying. He also used material inducements such as housing, travel, promotions, job advancements, and research grants to keep his women or sex slaves devoted to him. In short, Sun Changfa used a "carrot and stick" approach to firmly "trap" the hearts of his women.
Second, their sources of power differed. Tong Daqi was born with extraordinary abilities, possessing an unparalleled capacity to "handle" women. He often spent the entire night with three, four, five, or even six women, sometimes reaching twelve. Only after satisfying each woman would he embrace them and go to sleep. Especially when he was playing with foreign women at Jia Ran's hotel, he once single-handedly took on nine beautiful, curvaceous, and sexy American women. This was a group of beauty pageant contestants from the Americas, mainly from Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba, the United States, Mexico, and other countries. They were all under twenty years old and had all won at least state-level beauty pageants, with four even winning national titles. He made all nine American women "submit" simultaneously because he had visited almost all three areas on each of their bodies that were suitable for a man's amorous advances, and he had repeatedly brought each of them to the peak of lust. There was one beautiful and sexy Brazilian woman who was the national beauty pageant winner of Brazil in a certain year. Because she was so beautiful and sexy, Daqi was immediately aroused, and she almost fainted on the spot. It seemed like a Chilean girl had to give her CPR to wake her up. Afterwards, they all said, "CHINAMAN, BEST! CHINAMAN, BEST!..." Jia Ran, seeing this, exclaimed in surprise, "My dollars weren't wasted! You've really made me proud!" Daqi knew that Jia Ran had used up all the dollars she had in her Swiss bank account so he could sleep with these nine foreign women. Therefore, even though he was now accompanied by twenty-one beauties (including his mother-in-law and his homeroom teacher Han Meng), he was still quite capable.
Sun Changfa, however, was different. His "power" was stronger than most, but compared to Da Qi, it wasn't in the same league. He too had the ability to seduce three women in one night, but that was the most he could manage. However, he relied on Viagra to sustain himself. But he knew that Viagra shouldn't be taken in excess; too much could be fatal. Therefore, a super-slut like Ma Chunlan was often unsatisfied, like a resentful woman who felt everyone owed her 2.5 million RMB… Yet, she dared not vent her anger on Sun Changfa and had to flatter him: "Master, you're so amazing! You've made this slut Chunlan suffer so much…"
Third, the ways of punishing women differed. Daqi almost never punished his women, at most saying a few words. Only his mother-in-law was beaten by him, because she unreasonably dug up Meiting's "his past." Sun Changfa, on the other hand, often used "family discipline" on his women or sex slaves, ranging from whips to candle wax and bondage.
Because of the three differences mentioned above, "Master" Daqi and "Master" Sun Changfa are fundamentally different people. Readers must clearly distinguish between them! However, they seem to have achieved the same effect, as if their women couldn't live without them and needed to depend on them to find themselves. This is not the case. Daqi's women followed him sincerely; they were willing to serve him as the sole master and man in their lives, and their relationship with him grew stronger. They willingly gave him everything and vied to dote on him.
Sun Changfa's women, however, were not truly devoted to him. Ma Chunlan, for example, was lured by material things; Sun could help her with promotions, travel, housing, research grants, and even...
Section Reading 241
He simply gave her money. Xiaoying was initially lured in by material incentives, as Sun had given her a permanent position, making her a teacher at the media academy. However, Xiaoying gradually became unable to tolerate Sun's authoritarianism and torment, and she wanted to break free from his control. In reality, the relationship between him and his women and sex slaves was deteriorating. For example, Xiaoying secretly hated Sun Changfa but dared not speak out. Ma Chunlan, on the other hand, was purely driven by material considerations; if Sun Changfa were to step down, she would be the first to leave him.
Let's turn our attention back to Tong Daqi. Tong Daqi, along with his three female students—Xiaoling, Beibei, and Jiaxin—and Shu Dongyue, are nervously preparing for their final exams. Although Shu Dongyue isn't Daqi's girlfriend, she enjoys spending all her free time with them, except for classes. In other words, Tong Daqi is always with the school's infamous "Four Beauties of Broadcasting." The five of them often study, review, chat, and drink coffee together.
Since Daqi officially took Xiaoling in, he has rarely interacted with his classmates or students in the department, except for attending classes. Because he doesn't live in the dormitory, his contact with his classmates has also decreased significantly. Of course, he has close contact with his class teacher, Han Meng, and they are quite close.
With Bei Bei's meticulous help, Shu Dongyue gradually caught up on her missed lessons. Bei Bei was a diligent and well-behaved girl, and her class notes were meticulously written down, almost recording every word the teacher said. Once, Da Qi deliberately looked at Bei Bei's class notes and praised her, "Bei Bei, you could be a recorder! Your notes are so neat!" Bei Bei smiled and said, "It's just a habit, a habit." Bei Bei had always been a studious child. This habit greatly facilitated Shu Dongyue's studies, as Bei Bei's tutoring was based on the teacher's notes. Dongyue said to Bei Bei, "Bei Bei, your notes are so detailed! Reading your notes is like listening to the teacher's lecture. You're amazing!" Bei Bei smiled and said, "Dongyue, just keep studying. If you don't understand something, just ask me. You'll definitely pass your final exams."
During the final exam review period, Dongyue spent almost every day with Daqi, Xiaoling, and the other two. Needless to say, they even ate together. Many boys in the school envied Daqi, being surrounded by four beauties all day long. Daqi's classmate, Shen Ping'an, said, "Boss, you're my idol!" Daqi smiled and said, "I'm just chatting with the beauties, don't overthink it." Of course, the classmates didn't know that three of the four beauties were Daqi's women. Most people only thought Xiaoling and Daqi were particularly close, and the other beauties were probably just his good friends. But they felt that being with the beauties was a very happy thing!
Many people sighed inwardly: "Why am I not Tong Daqi? If only I were Tong Daqi, I'd be surrounded by beautiful women all day long. Unlike me, it's so difficult to even say a word to a beautiful woman… It's truly a case of 'comparison is the thief of joy!'"
Just as everyone was reviewing for their final exams, Xiaoling suddenly said to Daqi one day, "Master, there's good news!" Beibei also said there was good news. Jiaxin and Dongyue asked them curiously, "What good news? Tell us."
Xiaoling said, "Master, you'll have to treat everyone to a celebration this weekend!"
Beibei said, "Yes, you definitely have to treat us."
Daqi laughed and said, "My two sisters, what good news is it? Tell me quickly! If it's really good news, I'll definitely treat you!"
Xiaoling said, "The Party Branch Secretary of our department talked to Beibei and me, and decided to make us both probationary Party members. We've joined the Party!"
Jiaxin exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, you guys are amazing! You became Party members in your freshman year, that's incredible! Unlike me, I'm still an active applicant for Party membership, and it's almost impossible for me to become a Party member."
Dongyue laughed and said, "This is a good thing! Although I am not a party member, I know that joining the party is a good thing. Brother, this is a happy occasion, you should invite them. I'll just take advantage of their presence."
Daqi said, "Okay, okay, okay. Friday night, the five of us will have a good meal together at the hotel across from the school." Simei happily shouted, "Big brother, hooray!"
This weekend, Daqi indeed took the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" out to a hotel for dinner. It was a hotel specializing in Sichuan cuisine, almost entirely spicy dishes. Xiaoling and Beibei were very happy because they had filled out their "Application Forms for Joining the Party" yesterday; in fact, they had already been designated as probationary Party members by the department.
Xiaoling said, "Master, let me toast you. If it weren't for you, how could I have joined the Party so smoothly?"
Daqi laughed and said, "You're quite capable yourself, let's drink together!"
Beibei said, "Master, I also want to toast you. You've been a great help to us. Today is a rare day of happiness, so Beibei will toast you."
Daqi said, "Belle, I didn't help you at all. You got to this point mainly through your own abilities. Your joining the Party is a natural progression and what everyone expects!"
Xiaoling laughed and said, "Then wouldn't I be expected to do so naturally and as everyone hopes?"
Daqi pinched Xiaoling's cheek and laughed, "Little girl, when have I ever disagreed with you? You're the student council president, so you're legally entitled to join the party. Who dares to say anything about that?"
Jiaxin said, "That's right. If neither the chairman nor the vice-chairman can get in, who else will be willing to do things for the department?"
Dongyue said, "Student Party members are quite rare. Today, I'd like to offer a toast to the two chairpersons!" Dongyue, Xiaoling, and Beibei clinked glasses and drank.
Xiaoling said, "I called my dad home at noon today. He was very happy to hear that I had become a probationary member of the Communist Party. He said that this would make it easy for him to get me into Rongzhou TV. I finally didn't let him down and met his requirements."
Daqi said, "Your dad is really something. If he has connections, he should use them. Why does he have to make you join the Party? Does being a non-Party member mean you can't get into TV station? Sigh, I don't know what to say."
Xiaoling laughed and said, "My parents joined the Party in college, so they hope I can be like them. Most importantly, he can legitimately help me with my career path, all for the sake of finding a job after graduation."
Daqi nodded and said, "Your grandfather is quite a far-sighted man, no wonder he's a professor."
Beibei said, “My dad is happy too. He said that as long as I am a party member, he can easily get me a job in a government agency or public institution, of course, in my hometown. I don’t want to go back; I want to work at the provincial TV station, and I want to be with my master.”
Daqi laughed and said, "Hey, as long as you have a bright future, don't worry about me."
Beibei said, "I have to get married eventually. I will only marry my master."
Dongyue then realized that Beibei was also Daqi's woman. She had always thought that only Xiaoling was his woman, but she hadn't expected that Beibei's admiration for Daqi was no less than Xiaoling's. Dongyue exclaimed in surprise, "Beibei, are you really going to marry Big Brother?"
Dongyue was both surprised and unsurprised. She was surprised that the married Tong Daqi had managed to win the hearts of two of the most beautiful student council presidents from the broadcasting department, and simultaneously at that; she wasn't surprised because she herself had feelings for Daqi, so she assumed Xiaoling and Beibei's affections for him stemmed from the same thought: Daqi was simply too outstanding, too kind to women, making him irresistible! However, Dongyue was still slightly jealous, knowing that Daqi liked both Xiaoling and Beibei—what a womanizer! But why weren't Xiaoling and Beibei jealous, and why were they so close? She didn't know. And why, knowing that Daqi had a wife and also had Xiaoling and Beibei, did she still fall for him? Wait, had she taken the wrong medicine?
Actually, it wasn't that Dongyue took the wrong medicine; rather, she naturally fell for Tong Daqi. From the moment Daqi helped her confront the fat woman, pretending to be her boyfriend, Dongyue thought: "Big brother, how wonderful it would be if you were really my boyfriend!"
Dongyue felt that Daqi was not only knowledgeable and eloquent, but also possessed a level of resourcefulness and composure that was rare in ordinary people. Even that arrogant fat woman was completely subdued in his presence. She didn't know what she would have done without him. Furthermore, Daqi had truly been a great help to her, constantly encouraging her to finish university and not to worry about the future. Dongyue had always believed that men only help women if they have ulterior motives, but Daqi gave her a different interpretation: although he helped her, he never said he wanted to possess her. This was what moved Dongyue the most.
Shu Dongyue was a very intelligent and shrewd girl. Her family was poor from a young age, but she possessed exceptional artistic talent, especially in singing. She knew she was no less talented than any of the girls around her, but due to her family's circumstances, she couldn't even afford high school tuition. To fulfill her dream of attending university, she dated a wealthy man during high school and another during university. Despite her young age, she had experienced the full spectrum of human nature; her life journey could definitely be described as arduous. But Dongyue had to admit: aside from his womanizing ways, Daqi was absolutely a very innocent person. Although he was intelligent and wealthy, he never used money to seduce her. Therefore, Dongyue unknowingly fell for Daqi. She couldn't pinpoint exactly when. Anyway, whenever she saw Daqi, Xiaoling, and the other two laughing and joking, she always felt a pang of jealousy.
Beibei said, "I will not marry anyone but my master!" Daqi knew Beibei wouldn't lie; she was a very innocent girl. Daqi was quite touched by this; he had not only won Beibei's heart but also become the only man in her life.
Jiaxin said, "I'm the same as Beibei! Dongyue, don't laugh at us. We only told you this because we consider you a friend. Actually, all three of us are Big Brother's girlfriends."
Dongyue stared wide-eyed, speechless for a long time. She finally understood why the three of them always called him "Master." She had always thought it was a joking term, but she never knew they called Daqi "Master" willingly. It was because they all loved Daxuan very much! Xiaoling said, "Dongyue, don't be surprised. We only told you because you're our good friend and sister."
Shu Dongyue was inwardly astonished: Who would have thought that the beautiful Sha Jiaxin—the department's arts and literature minister—was also Big Brother's woman! Daqi, you're too lecherous! How could you take three of our "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" as your concubines? You know, each of them is the dream girl of countless boys! Of course, she was one too. Countless people had pursued her.
Beibei smiled and said, "Dongyue, don't worry about our affairs. Just treat us as friends. We are your true friends."
Dongyue immediately said, "I'm really happy to be with you all. You've all helped me so much. Especially Big Brother... Come on, let me toast you!" Daqi smiled and joined Xiaoling, Beibei, and Shajiaxin in clinking glasses with Dongyue.
Dongyue thought to herself: I've heard that three of the school's "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" have ended up with the eldest brother. Looks like I'm falling behind. Maybe I should just go with him too. I wonder if he likes me? Anyway, I do like him!
Xiaoling had always hoped that Daqi would be surrounded by many beautiful women; at least she wouldn't be jealous of other women. She knew that a man like Daqi must have many women around him. Xiaoling thought to herself: "Dongyue, why don't you just go with Big Brother? Let's, the 'Four Beauties of Broadcasting,' happily serve our one and only master—Daqi." Xiaoling was a very shrewd woman, extremely observant. She knew that Shu Dongyue had feelings for Daqi, and that Daqi treated her very well. Therefore, she thought again: "Master, Dongyue will be yours sooner or later; the four of us are destined to be with you. Just confidently take Dongyue as your concubine!"
Beibei thought to herself: Dongyue, Daqi is the best man. Don't laugh at the fact that the three of us like him at the same time.
Jiaxin thought: Since the three of us beauties are all with Big Brother, Dongyue, why don't you become Big Brother's woman too? Let him have the complete "Four Beauties of Broadcasting," it just doesn't feel perfect without you!
Daqi thought to himself: Dongyue, you are a beauty that everyone loves. Everyone who sees you will like you, and I, as a man, am no exception. However, I, Daqi, have never thought of having you, even though you are so beautiful, sexy, and alluring. I am willing to help you, hoping that you will become a real college student, not a mistress kept by someone.
However, Daqi was an experienced man; he knew that Dongyue actually liked him too. Especially lately, the way she looked at him was always full of affection, just like with Xiaoling, Beibei, and Jiaxin. He suddenly remembered a dream he had not long ago, in which the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" sat in a pavilion, happily playing the same flute for him alone to enjoy.
At this moment, Da Qicai thought to himself: Is it all predestined? Could Dongyue really become my woman? Ah, let nature take its course, don't force it. Unless Dongyue willingly offers herself to him, he won't actively try to get her. Because he already has too many women. There's Seventeen Beauties at home, plus the beautiful homeroom teacher Han Meng; the three beauties before him are a bit too many. One more Dongyue won't make a difference, and he can still enjoy his pleasures even without her. But what if Dongyue were to offer herself to him willingly? Then he might as well take her in as well, making her one of his gentle, obedient, and considerate concubines. In terms of appearance, figure, and temperament, Dongyue can be described as outstanding. Moreover, this girl exudes one word—"seductive." Not as "seductive" as Xiao Li, then let's describe her as "alluring." Perhaps given time, she can catch up to Xiao Li's "seductive charm."
In truth, only when Dongyue smiled could Daqi truly appreciate her allure. Since breaking off her relationship with the man who had been keeping her, she had become much more restrained in her demeanor, clothing, and speech. She seemed to have hidden away all her seductive charm.
The four continued chatting. Beibei said, "My dad is really happy today. He said his student is the director of the newsroom at the provincial TV station. As long as I'm a Party member, he can have his student get me an internship and job at the station. The main thing is to shut people up so they can't say anything."
Daqi laughed and said, "What can others say? Beibei, use your connections and take advantage of any opportunities you have. Don't pay too much attention to what others say. As long as you haven't done anything immoral, what's wrong with using connections? It's normal. Everyone has children and wants them to have a bright future. Anyway, I'm happy you're joining the Party! You and Xiaoling have always been the best performers in your department, you should be admitted!"
As the four chatted, the conversation turned to summer internships. Daqi said, "Actually, you're all only freshmen, so whether you do an internship or not isn't necessarily that important. Of course, it's good to have the opportunity to broaden your horizons."
The details of where Xiaoling and Beibei will intern have already been mentioned. Jiaxin said, "I haven't decided yet. My dad said he'd help me get an internship at the local cultural bureau, but I don't really want to go."
Daqi asked, "Why?"
Jiaxin said, "I feel the same way as Beibei, I don't want to go home. I also like being with you. If I really had to work from home, I would faint."
Xiaoling said, "Dongyue, you stay at Master's coffee shop for a while. I'll keep an eye on things for you while I'm interning. If they need more staff, you can come work for me." Beibei added, "Yes, Dongyue, Jiaxin, don't worry too much. We won't forget you when we have the chance."
Section Reading 242
Jiaxin immediately thanked Xiaoling and Beibei.
Dongyue smiled and said, "I'm very happy to be able to go to Big Brother's coffee shop. My starting point is different from yours. I may not work at a TV station after graduation. Big Brother, I'll make you coffee."
Daqi knew perfectly well that among the four beauties, only Dongyue came from a family with no connections, so naturally she wouldn't want to work at a TV station. Even an idiot would know that without connections and acquaintances, it's virtually impossible to get into such a place. Dongyue wasn't insecure; she was simply a pragmatic girl.
Daqi said, "Dongyue, don't worry. Let me tell you, my coffee shop is a paradise. You'll see how relaxing and peaceful it is when you go there. Besides, if you really want to work in television, there are still opportunities. After all, you still have three years before you officially graduate from university, so there are plenty of opportunities to create."
Dongyue nodded to Daqi and smiled gratefully. Daqi thought Dongyue looked really beautiful at that moment, and he smiled slightly at her. Dongyue was very happy because Daqi always valued her.
After the five of them had eaten and drunk their fill, Daqi, Xiaoling, Beibei, and Jiaxin prepared to return to Baisha Apartment, while Dongyue was heading back to the girls' dormitory. Unexpectedly, Xiaoling said, "Dongyue, come visit us, it's the weekend anyway." Jiaxin chimed in, "Yeah, let's go!" The two of them grabbed Dongyue from either side and shoved her into the car, which Daqi had driven. Dongyue actually wanted to visit their place too, and since she liked Daqi, she especially wanted to spend time with him. Daqi, with his arm around Beibei's slender waist, laughed, "Ling'er and Xin'er practically kidnapped Dongyue and stuffed her into the car." Beibei smiled and said, "It's the weekend anyway, what's there to be afraid of? What are you going to do with Dongyue alone in the dormitory? She hardly talks to her classmates or roommates!" Daqi nodded and said, "Let's go home!" So, Daqi drove the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" back to Baisha Apartment.
Chapter 36: The Passing of the Child Mother
Upon returning to Baisha Apartment, Daqi invited Dongyue to sit down in the living room and watch TV. Xiaoling took out fruit from the refrigerator and offered it to everyone, especially peeling a Fuji apple for Dongyue. Daqi, with Beibei on his left arm and Jiaxin on his right, comfortably leaned back on the sofa to watch TV. Xiaoling sat with Dongyue. The five of them chatted idly while watching TV.
Daqi asked everyone, "Girls, beauties, sisters: how's your final exam review going?" Beibei smiled and nodded; Daqi trusted her. Xiaoling said, "A few more days should be enough." Jiaxin also said, "I should be able to pass." Daqi then asked Dongyue, "Dongyue, how about you?" Shu Dongyue said, "I still need some time to get used to it. Thanks for your concern, big brother!" The TV was showing "A Fairy Tale of Youth," which all four girls loved. Daqi had no choice but to watch it with them. After watching TV, Xiaoling said, "Today is Friday, and we'll be studying overtime tomorrow, Saturday. Let's play mahjong now!" Everyone agreed, and Dongyue laughed, "There are four of you, so we can play mahjong every day! Mahjong is a lot of fun." Everyone laughed heartily. So, the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" sat around a table and started playing mahjong. Daqi would sit next to Xiaoling and "point fingers," then next to Beibei and "draw feet," then next to Jiaxin and "talk back and forth," and finally next to Dongyue and "gossip." Dongyue wasn't his woman, so he naturally wouldn't take advantage of her. But it was different with Xiaoling, Beibei, and Jiaxin. He would occasionally turn Xiaoling's face to kiss her, then place his hand on Beibei's breasts and caress them, and gently pat Jiaxin's buttocks. The three women, all fond of Daqi, didn't care and giggled incessantly. Dongyue, however, felt a little embarrassed watching the four flirting.
After finishing their mahjong game, Xiaoling brought a blanket to Dongyue, saying, "Please sleep on the sofa, I'm sorry!" Dongyue smiled and shook her head. Meanwhile, Daqi was taking a "couple's bath" with Jiaxin. Jiaxin attentively served Daqi during his bath. Daqi admired Jiaxin's beautiful figure, delicate skin, and pretty face. He would occasionally kiss her breasts and gently caress her shapely buttocks, and Jiaxin would smile slightly, glancing shyly at Daqi. Daqi asked her, "Xin'er, are you really willing to be with us?" Jiaxin smiled and nodded, then kissed Daqi proactively. Daqi said, "Little girl, you're getting better and better at pleasing me." Jiaxin whispered, "Isn't it because you always ask me to do this?" Daqi smiled and said, "Do you like me treating you like this?" Jiaxin blushed and nodded, saying, "You're very gentle with people." Daqi gently stroked her breasts and said, "Little girl, use this to serve me." Jiaxin smiled slightly, moved her soft body down a little, brought her breasts closer to his crotch, and slightly squeezed her breasts together with her hands... Daqi felt the handsome man's caresses, admired the pure and beautiful girl's wantonness, and kept praising, "Xin'er, you're so good, I love you..."
After the two girls finished showering, Xiaoling and Beibei went to the bathroom to shower together. Daqi, quite the character, simply sat Jiaxin on his lap and casually talked to Dongyue. Jiaxin hugged Daqi's neck, a happy smile on her face. Dongyue was quite envious of Jiaxin. After Xiaoling and Beibei finished showering, Dongyue also went to the bathroom. When Dongyue came out of the bathroom, Daqi and the other two complimented her on her beauty, making her blush. Seeing that it was almost midnight, Daqi said, "Dongyue, I'm sorry to trouble you to rest in the living room. We're going to sleep." Xiaoling said, "Master, why don't I sleep with Dongyue in the living room? You can sleep with Beibei and Xin'er." Daqi smiled and nodded, then went to sleep with Beibei and Jiaxin.
That night, Xiaoling and Dongyue slept together on the sofa. Dongyue took the initiative to talk to Xiaoling. Meanwhile, Daqi was in the bedroom flirting and having sex with Beibei and Jiaxin. The three of them made quite a lot of noise, which Xiaoling was used to. Dongyue then asked her, "Xiaoling, can I ask you a question?"
Xiaoling said, "Dongyue, aren't you going to sleep?"
Dongyue smiled and said, "I can't sleep. Look how noisy it is in the bedroom."
Xiaoling laughed and said, "The four of us often do this, it's nothing. Big Brother is just that kind of womanizer, all of us sisters like him."
Dongyue asked, "Xiaoling, aren't you jealous of each other?"
Xiaoling: "Jealous? You mean jealous of your older brother?"
Dongyue nodded, and Xiaoling continued, "We're all good sisters, it doesn't matter. Big Brother is capable; he can have a dozen women wherever he goes. I can't be that jealous, as long as he's good to me, that's enough."
Dongyue asked, "Do Beibei and Jiaxin think the same way?"
Xiaoling nodded and said, "The three of us are all Big Brother's women, so they definitely won't be jealous. Sigh, Dongyue, it's not easy to find a man you love in this life. Capable men all have three wives and four concubines; it's fate. I like Big Brother's honesty. He never hides how many women he has, and he never lies to me. To be honest, men like that are really rare. Dongyue, I know what you're thinking. Do you like Big Brother too?"
Dongyue nodded and said, "I...I do like him quite a bit. But, he's just too much of a womanizer. Sigh..."
Xiaoling said, "What do you care if he's a womanizer? Let me tell you, if you're willing to be with Big Brother, he'll definitely love you too. I'm not lying to you. Dongyue, actually Daqi also has feelings for you, he's just too shy to say it. I know why he doesn't dare to express them to you."
Dongyue asked curiously, "Why? Tell me, tell me!" Her curiosity was immediately piqued by Xiaoling.
Xiaoling laughed and said, "Look at you, look at you, it's obvious that you like Big Brother too. Hey, I won't be jealous, don't worry. Okay, since you're so interested, I might as well tell you. Big Brother has always helped you, but he's afraid people will say that he's only helping you because he has ulterior motives, so... so, he never shows you anything."
Dongyue said, "Oh, I see. How did you know?"
Xiaoling smiled and said, "I know him, so I know. Believe it or not, it's up to you. Anyway, Dongyue, your brother is a good man. As for his womanizing ways, every man is like that. Don't take it too seriously. Which man in society isn't like that these days, unless he's incompetent? Let me tell you, my dad is a professor, and he's had two or three affairs too. My mom knows but doesn't say anything. There's nothing she can do, because my dad is a family man."
Dongyue said, "But I've been kept by men before, and more than one... You know that. Brother, how could he... how could he possibly be interested in me?"
Xiaoling chuckled and said, "Silly girl, don't be afraid. Big brother always says, 'A hero's origins don't matter.' He's not the kind of person who's bothered by trifles. As long as you stick with him now, he has no reason not to want you. Don't worry, he often praises you in front of us, saying how good-looking and beautiful you are! Go to sleep, it's late, you still have to study tomorrow."
