The open and hidden struggles between women are too many to count, but most men can't get involved. After learning about the thoughts of the two women through the narration, Su Qing almost feels like his native language, which he learned from elementary school, must be fake.

Every word is understandable, yet he found himself unable to comprehend a single sentence. The verbal duel and the hidden attacks behind the scenes between the two were simply outrageous.

"Qingzi, what just happened? Why was '800' there too?" Wang Xing asked with a puzzled look as he sat on the sofa.

Time goes back to five minutes ago.

At the moment when the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward, Wang Xing's sudden visit broke the deadlock.

Su Qing was naturally overjoyed at this, after all, although the two women seemed to have each taken a step back, in reality, they were putting him on the spot. He wouldn't have a good outcome regardless of whom he sided with. Luckily, Wang Xing came.

With his arrival, the confrontation between the two women couldn't continue, and the apparent retreat turned into an actual retreat.

Shen Yi naturally didn't need much explanation; her years of business experience had long informed her of when to advance and when a retreat was necessary.

Li Zijun, despite being young, had a proper sense of discretion in her actions. Moreover, her aim was just to guard against the woman older than her by several years.

After all, one was a university graduate not long out of school, in her early twenties, and the other was a successful businesswoman of considerable age, and they had not only an age difference but also disparities in cunning.

As a police officer, she had seen probably countless cases of wealthy individuals keeping young lovers, but there were very few positive outcomes. How could someone like Su Qing, fresh out of college, outsmart such a shrewd person?

So when the two women saw Wang Xing arrive, they tacitly took a step back—one suggested arranging another day to meet, while the other prompted him to visit Captain Zhao in the hospital when he had the time, and then they bid him farewell.

Especially the look in their eyes just before they left, which made his heart race.

"What '800', she has a name, it's Shen Yi!" Su Qing rolled his eyes at him and said.

'800', is that something a person would say?

Hearing this, Wang Xing scratched his head with a chuckle: "Hey, didn't I only remember the price?"

Su Qing: →_→

"Whose price are you talking about?"

"That's not important. Did your sister find out about your secret meetings with someone's auntie? Wow, when I came in, I thought it was a thre..."

"Three what? Say it!" Su Qing glared at him, clearly prepared to make him regret it if he dared say another word.

"Three... a trio, meaning there must be something to learn from the encounter!"

"But speaking of which, I didn't see clearly that night, and now that I see her, she looks good. Even if she's an auntie, you're not losing out, right? So, what did she give you this time, a house?" Wang Xing asked cheekily.

To this, Su Qing was too lazy to even make a move, bluntly saying:

"Screw it, we're perfectly innocent!"

"Innocent my ass, how long have you two known each other, and she's already been to your place? You think I'll believe that?" Wang Xing remarked, acting as though he clearly saw through everything but chose not to expose it, which made Su Qing's eye twitch with irritation.

"I..."

"What do you mean 'I'? Don't I know you like older women? Stop pretending. But seriously, you're impressive, hitting it off with two sisters like that. Truly, some are dry while others drown."

At this, Su Qing could no longer hold back and threw a flying kick at him.

Wang Xing: "Dodged it! You missed! Wahahaha!"

Su Qing: ...

Seeing him tremble with anger, on the verge of losing it, Wang Xing decided to quit while ahead:

"Alright, alright, no more teasing. I came today to tell you that I quit my job!"

Hearing this, Su Qing was dumbfounded: "Why quit all of a sudden? Weren't you doing just fine?"

Wang Xing gave a bitter smile, shaking his head: "You know the reason I went there in the first place was the proximity to where she lives. Given how things are now, I might as well find somewhere else. Besides, there's not much career advancement in that crappy company, and I've been considering moving houses these last few days."

Though somewhat surprised by this, Su Qing felt more relief, thinking this fool finally made some progress, but the next second

[The reason someone is a 'simp' is because they lack boundaries. They either receive all or perish miserably. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, a 'simp' will flock to it. Half a month later, Jiang Mengting would be heartlessly abandoned, only to remember Wang Xing, the standby option over four years.]

Listening to the narration in his head, Su Qing suddenly had a bad feeling, pondering how these two people were, one shameless, the other lacking intelligence, the possibility of them getting back together was almost certain.

For whatever reason, as long as that woman contacted Wang Xing again, this fool would likely forget all the recent hurt.

Thinking about this, he deliberated a bit and replied slowly: "Alright then, don't rush the house; first find a job. How long do you plan to stay?"

"I've already contacted companies online and plan to go for an interview next Monday," Wang Xing said.

In response, Su Qing nodded and continued: "By the way, if you want to cut ties cleanly, it's best to cut off contact as well, in case you lose your resolve and reach out to her again."

Hearing this, Wang Xing's eyes widened: "Darn it, do you think I'm a 'simp'?"

"Aren't you?"

Wang Xing, vexed: "You..."

"Forget it, rest assured, I swear this time, I'll cut all ties; I've already deleted and blocked her on WeChat and phone. From the last incident, I see clearly now — I'm not in her heart, better to leave myself some dignity."

Su Qing, on the side, nodded with satisfaction, feeling more at ease, then patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Alright then, to celebrate your resignation and ridding yourself of the 'simp' label, and also for saving me from trouble today, my treat, Qingshuiwa Platform, foot massage!"

Wang Xing: ...

Meanwhile, on the other side, after Li Zijun and Shen Yi left, they met again at the exit of the community. Shen Yi rolled down the window of her Mercedes that had just been delivered a few days ago:

"Miss Li, where are you going? Let me give you a lift."

"No need, I'm driving a patrol car; I'm not used to riding this kind of car, so I won't trouble Boss Shen," Li Zijun pressed the button on her car key, and the lights of a patrol car across the street flashed once.

Not only did she refuse the offer, but she also preserved her dignity, as a patrol car didn't yield to any other car.

The two exchanged a glance, each thinking they understood the other's mind, but as women of high emotional intelligence, neither would reveal the truth on a first meeting.

"Alright, then I'll be off first."

Li Zijun nodded with a smile. She only relaxed after Shen Yi drove away, muttering to herself:

"This brat, what kind of woman did he provoke? Such a troublesome one!"

Yet Shen Yi was in no better mood; even as women, she could tell from Li Zijun's overly controlling demeanor—not typical of an ordinary older sister—that Su Qing kept calling her 'sister'.

Feeling restless, she drove straight to the city center. Over half an hour later, inside a tranquil afternoon tea restaurant, across from Shen Yi sat a woman who looked just over thirty but still dazzling and graceful, now staring at her in shock:

"And you went for someone 22 years old? Tsk~~ Scumbag woman!"

Shen Yi: ...
