Yang Xiao returned to his room, took a hot shower, and then lay in bed waiting.
He thought again of Huang Wen, Qin Yu, Deng Xiao, Chen Fei, and others. He actually had many opportunities to be with any one of the girls, but in that environment, what would Huang Wen, Qin Yu, and the others think?
Would Huang Wen be sad if he ended up with Qin Yu? Yang Xiao couldn't help but wonder self-indulgently.
He was an ordinary man, full of personal emotions, selfishness, and the desire to possess. However, in such a specific environment, he felt that not pursuing any girl among them, like Huang Wen, would help to maintain a relative harmony and stability within the group.
Stability trumps everything.
He felt that he was overthinking things, tormented by unnecessary worries.
...
"Knock, knock, knock."
There was a knock on the door.
Has she come?
Yang Xiao sprang up from the bed and ran to open the door.
A woman with a veiled face showing only her eyes stood at the door.
