After all wealth was wiped out, it became the highest peak in the A-share market.

Chapter 58 Next time you feel uncomfortable holding it in, come find me.

Qin Nuanyang woke up when Li Chao received the voice call.

She saw Li Chao watching her from the bedside, but he quickly ran away.

After Qin Nuanyang realized what was happening, she went out to look for him, but she couldn't find Li Chao anywhere even after searching for a long time.

In the end, I had no choice but to come back.

It was nearly 12:30, and she sat on the sofa, her thoughts in turmoil.

After much deliberation, I finally decided to send Wen He a message.

"Wen He, are you asleep? If not, reply to my message. There's something I want to ask you."

Wen He replied quickly, "Sister Nuanyang, I'm here, what's up?"

"Is puberty really that scary? How can it be cured?"

Wen He asked, "Did Li Chao do something again?"

"Around 11 p.m., he sneaked out again while I was asleep. I chased after him for a long time but couldn't catch up. I felt like he went to spend money to find a woman again." This time, Qin Nuanyang didn't use "a friend" as an excuse.

"Sister Nuanyang, you and Li Chao are already living together?"

"Pah, pah, pah! What do you mean by cohabitation! He just had a spare room here, and since my parents weren't home, I moved in for a couple of days. I've already caught him going out in the middle of the night twice."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

"Stop 'ohing'! Help me think of a solution. What should I do in his situation? I'm afraid he'll be messing around with other women all the time and get all sorts of diseases."

Wen He: "...Sister Nuanyang, he might have something else on his mind. It's not necessarily that he went out and messed around."

"What could he possibly be up to? At this hour, besides internet cafes and barbecue stalls, what other legitimate places are still open?"

Wen He: "It could just be eating something."

"Don't think of the best-case scenario, think of the worst-case scenario. Help me think of a solution. I'm so worried, but I don't dare to call him."

"The worst-case scenario? What do you think?"

"Just assume he went to a hotel with a woman, whether he paid someone at the train station or flirted with some girl in private, it's all the same. That guy's grades are so good, and now he's messing around all day. If we can't control him, I'll tell my parents and they won't let him stay off-campus."

"Let me think about it..."

After about two minutes of waiting, Wen He replied, "Sister Nuanyang, I think it's better to guide than to block. With a super beauty like Sister Nuanyang by his side, how could he be interested in other girls?"

"What do you mean?" Qin Nuanyang asked.

"Sister Nuanyang, you should get closer to him. He's just going through puberty and he's a bit restless. Just help him calm down."

"How can I relieve it?"

"Uh...it's just that kind of thing between men and women, like kissing and hugging..."

"Oh? Will he still be able to concentrate on his studies? I'm afraid his mind will be filled with all sorts of nonsense."

"Sister Nuanyang, isn't he also preoccupied with those things right now? What if he gets sick from fooling around outside?"

Qin Nuanyang: "..."

……

The sound of the door opening brought Qin Nuanyang back to reality.

Li Chao was somewhat surprised to see Qin Nuanyang sitting on the sofa and asked, "Why aren't you asleep?"

Qin Nuanyang snorted but did not answer.

Li Chao then said, "Then remember to get some rest. I'm sleepy, I'm going back to sleep first."

After closing the door, Li Chao went to his bedroom.

Qin Nuanyang immediately became anxious and shouted, "You've been out for so long in the middle of the night, don't you have anything to say?"

Li Chao: "Oh? It's something, it involves my personal privacy, and I can't tell outsiders."

Qin Nuanyang ran straight to Li Chao, glaring at him, and said, "You're saying I'm an outsider?"

"Otherwise what? Is it your wife?"

The next second, Qin Nuanyang grabbed Li Chao by the neck, yelling, "Ahhh... Li Chao, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Ugh... I can't breathe..."

"I'll strangle you!"

Li Chao actually felt okay. Qin Nuanyang did use force, but it was far from strangling him to death. However, he did feel a bit uncomfortable.

He picked Qin Nuanyang up and carried her a couple of steps inside, then tossed her onto the bed, using the momentum to make her let go.

"Hey... I didn't do anything to you, why are you suddenly going crazy?"

Thrown onto the bed, Qin Nuanyang thrashed around, then sat there crying, sobbing, "You have no idea how worried I was about you! Running off in the middle of the night for over an hour, you're such a jerk!"

"No, I had some personal matters to attend to. You were sleeping, so I didn't tell you. I sincerely apologize and promise that next time this happens, I will definitely tell you in advance. Is that alright?"

Qin Nuanyang: "..."

It actually works.

but……

"Then tell me now, what exactly did you go to do?"

"Didn't I say I need some privacy..."

Qin Nuanyang: "Okay, I won't ask about the specifics. Just tell me, did you go to see a man or a woman?"

"Huh? This..."

"Tell the truth!" Qin Nuanyang stared into Li Chao's eyes and emphasized it again.

Li Chao: "It's a woman, but it's definitely not what you think. I'll tell you the details later; it's not convenient right now."

Li Chao didn't want to put too much pressure on Wen He. After all, Wen He was willing to call him "Dad" and establish a fixed relationship because she was afraid she wouldn't be able to face Qin Nuanyang.

Qin Nuanyang continued, "Didn't you go to a hotel with a woman?"

"What are you thinking? If I went to a hotel with a woman, would I even need to come back?"

"So you went to one of those massage parlors?"

"No, why would I go to a place like that?"

Qin Nuanyang stared at Li Chao, unable to sense that he was lying, but she still felt uneasy.

She said seriously, "Then will you still go out at night in the future?"

"It depends. If there's any emergency, we'll definitely have to go out. But... I'll definitely tell you that even if you're asleep, I'll wake you up."

"What if I'm not here?"

Li Chao: "...What can I do without you here? I can't just video chat with you as soon as I get back, can I? And keep video chatting until midnight? If I really want to go out, I can just go out after midnight, right?"

Qin Nuanyang: "...Then what do you suggest I do?"

"Hmm... The best way to handle this is to increase randomness. Since you have the key here anyway, you can come and check on things every now and then at night without telling me in advance. If you find that I should be here but I'm not, and I didn't tell you beforehand, it means I didn't keep my promise."

Upon hearing this, Qin Nuanyang's eyes instantly lit up.

It really is Li Chao...

But surely he has a way to deal with it?

For example, he can analyze which days he will come and which days he won't come...

The real root of the problem lies in his illness.

Thinking back to an hour ago, when I woke up and found Li Chao sitting next to me, looking at me...

This guy must be too afraid to lay a hand on me, so he went to find other women.

"Li Chao..."

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"Next time you feel uncomfortable holding it in, come find me."
