Alex knew his method of dealing with the chubby girl was somewhat shocking and not easy to explain, so he changed the subject and asked again, "Who is that Dr. Zhang?"
He had vaguely heard on the phone just now that this chubby girl was making things difficult for Chen Luoqiu in order to curry favor with that Dr. Zhang.
Chen Luoqiu frowned. "He's someone I don't know. One time I delivered takeout to him, and he asked for my contact information, but I didn't give it to him. Later, I don't know how he found my home address and showed up at my door, offering to treat my mother for free, but my mother refused him."
Chen Luoqiu gave a concise introduction. It wasn't a big deal, just another case of harassment caused by her beauty. Later, Chen Luoqiu never saw Dr. Zhang again; she didn't know how Dr. Zhang and the chubby girl got involved with each other.
The chubby girl's real name was Tang Jing. It was a nice name, but she was rude and overbearing. She lived in the same building as Chen Luoqiu and her mother; her parents were still alive, and her family background was average.
Tang Jing was also a university student. Because she was ugly and extremely fat, she had never been popular, yet she looked down on boys with average conditions, even despising them greatly, claiming these people weren't worthy of her, and often found excuses to bully such boys.
For example, when lining up for food in the cafeteria, if a boy accidentally touched her, she would scream about sexual harassment, making it known to everyone and causing the boy to lose face. Forcing people to drop out of school was just a common occurrence for her, and in exaggerated cases, she would demand a hefty compensation. People who knew her had a nickname for her in private: "Butt Sister."
However, if she encountered a handsome and wealthy boy, not only would she not pursue the matter, but she would also take the initiative to throw herself at him. But with her appearance, unless it was an accidental bump, what boy would be interested in her?
Perhaps because she was ugly, Tang Jing had a twisted psychology and held a kind of hostility toward beautiful girls. She had often bullied Chen Luoqiu in the past. Chen Luoqiu had no choice but to try to avoid her as much as possible, but even so, Tang Jing would still find opportunities to ridicule her, as if that would make her feel confident.
After learning all this from Chen Luoqiu, Alex had even less affection for Tang Jing and even felt that he had gone too easy on her just now.
However, he had no intention of dealing a finishing blow. He didn't even bother to look at Tang Jing and just took Chen Luoqiu's hand and left.
Tang Jing lay on the ground, unable to move, glaring hatefully as they walked away. She struggled to take out her phone, found Dr. Zhang's number, called him, and reported what had happened.
Dr. Zhang actually didn't have any hope for Tang Jing; he was just annoyed by this crazy woman's pestering, so he had intentionally said that if Chen Luoqiu agreed to be his mistress, he would agree to date Tang Jing.
He hadn't expected that Tang Jing would actually go to Chen Luoqiu to talk about this. He was angry that she had ruined his plans, but after hearing that a boy had stood up for Chen Luoqiu and that Chen Luoqiu was quite intimate with that boy, his attitude immediately turned cold. Chen Luoqiu was a woman he had set his sights on, and he wouldn't allow anyone to touch her.
Dr. Zhang's mind shifted, and he suddenly said, "Tang Jing, are you familiar with Chen Luoqiu's mother?"
Tang Jing was stunned and replied, "I haven't seen her much in the past few years. I heard she's sick and can't go out easily, but I used to see her often, and she even praised me for being beautiful."
Tang Jing said smugly.
Dr. Zhang thought to himself that she must have been blind, but since he needed something from Tang Jing, he didn't put her down. He said indifferently, "Hmm, I'm coming over to find you now. You take me to see her, she recognizes you, so she won't refuse to let you in."
"You want to target Chen Luoqiu's mother?" Tang Jing immediately understood what Dr. Zhang meant. Her eyes rolled around, and she said coquettishly, looking somewhat displeased, "What's so good about Chen Luoqiu? Aren't I much more beautiful than her? Why do you have to be so set on her?"
Dr. Zhang felt nauseous inside, but he smiled and said, "Good girl, help me get this done, and I'll treat you to a meal."
"Okay." Seeing that her goal was achieved, Tang Jing readily agreed. Although the man with Chen Luoqiu who had appeared earlier had caught her attention and was much more outstanding than Dr. Zhang, that boy was on Chen Luoqiu's side. Tang Jing was annoyed that he had no taste, so she preferred Dr. Zhang more and was willing to do anything for him.
...
Having had his mood ruined by Tang Jing, Alex didn't take Chen Luoqiu anywhere to play. Since it was almost time for dinner, he rode his bike with Chen Luoqiu to the nearby market to buy groceries.
Mostly, he just watched Chen Luoqiu shop. When Chen Luoqiu bought groceries, she liked to pick and choose, selecting only the freshest ingredients.
Occasionally she would haggle with the vendors, but she wouldn't nitpick. If the vendor's attitude was generally firm, she wouldn't say anything more.
Chen Luoqiu bought groceries for more than just one day and handed them to Alex to carry. They were a bit heavy, but it wasn't a problem for Alex.
Alex didn't plan on staying for dinner later; he would leave after dropping Chen Luoqiu off at home.
Returning to where the bicycles were parked, Chen Luoqiu saw Alex carrying things in his hands and offered to give him a ride.
The items in Alex's hands were heavy; if he were to ride the bike, Chen Luoqiu, sitting in the back, would have to carry the heavy loads, so he agreed.
Sitting in the back, Alex couldn't wrap his arms around Chen Luoqiu's waist and had to lean forward to avoid falling off. Being pressed against her back and smelling the scent on the girl, he felt somewhat distracted.
His familiarity with Chen Luoqiu was from his dreams; in those dreams, they had tried every position and play style imaginable, but in reality, they had just met and hadn't had a chance to do anything yet.
But he imagined that Chen Luoqiu's body shouldn't be any different from the dreams—equally wonderful and tempting, lingering in one's mind, impossible to forget.
As Alex reminisced, he couldn't help but feel stirred. Seeing that they were on a quiet path, he shifted the items in his right hand to his left. Fortunately, he was quite strong, so this wasn't difficult to do. Then, he wrapped his right arm around Chen Luoqiu's slender waist.
Chen Luoqiu noticed that his actions weren't quite ordinary; the speed of her pedaling faltered for a moment, but then she continued riding as if she hadn't noticed anything.
Encouraged implicitly by her, Alex's hand began to explore the girl's graceful waist, and in his field of vision, messages about his Grappling Technique experience points increasing kept popping up.
Chen Luoqiu's waist was very slender and soft, feeling wonderful to the touch, yet it didn't lack a sense of strength. It was like a nimble female leopard, combining health and beauty, and Alex couldn't bear to let go.
Because they were on the street, Alex didn't dare to go too far and stopped after satisfying his craving.
They soon arrived at their destination. Chen Luoqiu stopped the bike first, waited until Alex had steadied himself before getting off, and then turned around to look at him with a playful smile.
Alex felt a bit embarrassed under her gaze. He had been too impatient just now, messing around right on the road. Fortunately, no one had seen.
However, Chen Luoqiu didn't seem to blame him. Seeing that there was no one around, she leaned in close, her pink lips slightly parted, and whispered: "It's not convenient these few days. Next time... let's find a more secluded place."
After saying this, a faint blush rose on her delicate face. She then stepped back calmly, acting as if nothing had happened.
Alex swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on Chen Luoqiu's face, suddenly looking forward to the arrival of "next time."
