**

Thank you to friends like Pichai Jushi, asjqm1990, and others for your attention and suggestions. Especially Jushi's comments, many of which
were very enlightening for bulun. Regarding the creation of a group, it's under consideration. Before that, if friends have any good ideas
or suggestions, you can leave a message here or in my column "Springtime in Every Home".

As for whether this story will be abandoned, it depends on your support. If you like it, bulun will try his best not
to abandon it , hehe…

"Oh—" Liu Bin really couldn't remember this, and smiled awkwardly, asking, "Isn't she unable
to drink?" Because Wen Li's face turned red after drinking two small cups at the beginning, and she kept saying she couldn't drink anymore.

"Then you were fooled by her appearance. She was just blushing. She should be able to drink half a jin without any problem. Later, she
drank two large glasses with you and left very sober."

It seems that Jin Jing was appreciated by the leaders and became the director of the guesthouse not only because she was beautiful, but also because she had her own special skills.
Not only could she drink, but she also paid attention to the situation at the table and knew how much the guests were drinking, which made Liu
Bin look at her differently. He chuckled and tentatively said, "I don't remember anything after that. I hope I didn't do anything
out of line ."

"You have good manners and etiquette when you're drunk, but you can get

a little reckless even when you're at your worst." "Hehe, anyway, I have no recollection of how I got to this room last night." "

Director Chen and the others helped you in. You were a bit unsteady, but you said you could walk on your own, no
problem , no need for help. Who knew you'd fall fast asleep as soon as you got into bed? By the way, are you hungry? I prepared some
late-night snacks for them."

"I'm not hungry, just a little thirsty."

"Then I'll go make you a cup of honey water."

Liu Bin came out of the bathroom, and Jin Jing brought in a large cup of honey water, saying, "It might still be a little hot,
drink it later."

"Thank you." Liu Bin took the cup, placed it on the bedside table, and continued, "Every time I drink, they get me
drunk. Next time, I'll have to find one or two beautiful women like you with a high alcohol tolerance to help me."

"I have a cousin who can hold her liquor well. Should I have her come over next time?"

"Hehe, we'll see next time."

"My cousin is prettier than me, she just has a lower level of education," Jin Jing said, smiling as she stared at Liu Bin.

At first, Liu Bin didn't pay much attention, but hearing the phrase "lower level of education" surprised him. Did education
level have anything to do with drinking? Looking at Jin Jing's expression, he quickly understood what she meant and hurriedly said, "Okay,
next time there's such an opportunity, I'll definitely let you know in advance." He then shook his head and added, "My head is still spinning
, I need to sleep a little longer."

"Okay. Then I won't disturb your rest."

After Jin Jing left, Liu Bin didn't fall asleep immediately. After sleeping for four or five hours, he sobered up considerably and wasn't
so sleepy anymore. He lay in bed, recalling the events at the dinner table. He remembered everything that had happened. Yang Yuxing's
invitation to dinner tonight was clearly not just a simple invitation; it was paving the way for his future entry into the transportation system.
Apart from Wen Li from the Finance Bureau, the other newcomers were all powerful figures in the transportation department. Yang Yuxing and Zhou Xiaohua
had subtly mentioned this at the dinner table. Clearly, Zhou Xiaohua had previously told
Yang Yuxing . Although Wen Li was only a deputy section chief in the Finance Bureau, she was backed by the vice mayor in charge of finance. Many
people without connections dared not take on municipal projects for fear of not getting paid. If he cultivated a good relationship with her, he
wouldn't have to worry about getting the money.

Thinking of this, he smiled. They were all trying to help him; it seemed he had to
work , otherwise, he would be letting them down. As for Jin Jing's attendance, he thought there were two reasons: Yang Yuxing was her
superior, and she couldn't refuse his invitation, especially since Wen Li, a female colleague, was also at the table; secondly, she might
want to introduce his cousin to him. However, he wasn't sure about the latter reason, as it hadn't been mentioned at the dinner table.
He had sent the other person away under the pretense of sleeping to avoid making a fool of himself. Besides, he had no intention of getting married yet,
and even if the other person was interested, it wasn't wise to get involved. As for women, he had already reserved one, and he felt
quite good about her.

The next day, Liu Bin woke up to find that the people playing cards next door had all left. After breakfast, he thought about calling
to say goodbye , but then stopped himself. Apart from Liu Weimin and Wen Li, who had left early the night before, the others were probably still
asleep, so he might as well send them a message. Last night, during the first round of toasts, he had saved the phone numbers of the newcomers
.

On his way back to the provincial capital, S City, Liu Bin received calls from Yang Yuxing and others. Yang Yuxing repeatedly emphasized that
if he returned to the city, he should stay at the municipal government guesthouse, and that he had already spoken to Jin Jing, all he needed was for her to sign
. So, it turned out that his invitation to Jin Jing to accompany him at the dinner last night had this hidden meaning.

Liu Bin arrived in the provincial capital around noon. He used to travel to the provincial capital by his company car, which seemed quick.
This time, however, he found the long-distance bus incredibly time-consuming. It took him almost three
hours to get from the city bus station to the provincial capital bus station. The main problem was that long-distance buses weren't always running; if you were unlucky, you could wait an hour or two. Today, he waited almost
forty minutes to board. On the bus, he considered buying a car. He'd be traveling a lot, and it would
be inconvenient he remembered he only had a little over 200,000 yuan, enough for a Volkswagen Santana, so he had to put the
idea aside.

After leaving the station, he went to a real estate agency and quickly found a two-bedroom apartment.

Built in the early 1990s, it was fully furnished; he only needed to buy some bedding to move in.
The rent wasn't expensive either, only 1,000 yuan a month. After settling the rental, he went to find a place to eat. While eating,
he remembered he needed to go shopping that afternoon and couldn't help but think of Ma Xiaolan, who had promised to be his woman. So he called her
, wanting her to accompany him that afternoon, because women are naturally better at that kind of thing than men. Unexpectedly, no one
answered , so he dialed Wang Fang's number again without thinking.

The call went through immediately, and Wang Fang seemed very excited to receive his call
. Hearing that she was to accompany him shopping, she excitedly agreed immediately.

He arrived at the agreed meeting place and saw Wang Fang standing hand-
in-hand . In the few days since he last saw her, Wang Fang seemed to have become prettier, losing some of her youthful naiveté. Upon seeing him, Wang Fang excitedly...
He quickly approached, pulling his classmate along, and sweetly called out, "Brother Liu." There was no shyness whatsoever; they seemed like
very familiar friends.

He had regretted calling Wang Fang afterward, because their acquaintance was merely a
transaction , and they hadn't arranged to meet again. He was worried Wang Fang would be embarrassed to see him. Wang Fang's current behavior
put his mind at ease. He stepped forward and generously shook her hand, saying, "You arrived so quickly?"

"I was shopping with my classmate. This is my classmate, Zhou Wei," Wang Fang replied with a charming smile, introducing the girl
beside her .

Zhou Wei was slightly taller and slimmer than Wang Fang, but not as slender as Ma Xiaolan. She had delicate features and seemed
a little shy upon seeing him.

"Oh, what a coincidence. Alright, then I'll ask you two beauties to advise me."

"What does Brother Liu want to buy?"

"I rented an apartment and need to buy some bedding and household items."

"Oh, Xiaowei and I can handle that."

There was a shopping mall nearby, and the two girls were very familiar with it. As soon as they entered, they
went , with Liu Bin following behind, smiling and pushing a cart. Once inside, the two girls busied themselves, looking at
this and that, whispering amongst themselves, and haggling with the sales staff.
After a while, they finally chose two sets of bedding for him. The colors and styles were nice, but he felt they were a bit
too youthful and didn't suit his age. However, as soon as he expressed his opinion, both girls
objected in unison, and in the end, he had no choice but to pay and pick up the items.

When they reached the household items section, his phone rang. It was Ma Xiaolan calling.

After confirming it was him, Ma Xiaolan apologized tearfully, explaining that her phone was charging and that she had been
working and had only just seen the call after finishing her shift. He then remembered that Ma Xiaolan was a restaurant server, and lunchtime was
her busiest time. Seeing that she seemed uneasy, he could only offer words of comfort. Looking at the time, it was already past 3 PM,
and there was no need to call her over
. He didn't reveal his purpose for calling, only saying that he had arrived in the city and would call to let her know, and instructing her to call him after work if she had nothing else to do .

While he was on the phone, Wang Fang and Zhou Wei were browsing through the household supplies cabinet. After he finished the call, Wang Fang
came over to ask what they needed. After he briefly explained the situation, the two girls got busy again.
At this moment, the girls' advantages became apparent, especially Zhou Wei, who was very meticulous,
even considering small things like garbage bags and toilet paper. The two worked for another half hour before finally selecting what they needed.

It was past four o'clock when they left the store. After Liu Bin loaded his purchases into a taxi, he was about to call a ride to take the two girls back to
school when Wang Fang said she wanted to visit him. She pulled Zhou Wei along and squeezed into
the back seat, . He thought it was fine for them to come; they could help him move and organize his things, so he didn't
object.

Although there weren't many items, they were scattered, and it took the three of them two trips to move them all. Liu Bin thought to himself:
"Luckily I didn't stop them from coming, otherwise I would have had to make several more trips.

" After the items were moved into the room, Wang Fang, like a lady of the house, pulled Zhou Wei to start unpacking, leaving him with
nothing to do . Zhou Wei seemed more capable than Wang Fang at housework, handling everything methodically and
seemingly was perfectly placed.

After the two tidied up the kitchen, Wang Fang excitedly said, "Brother Liu, go buy some groceries, and we'll
cook at home later, okay?"

"Ah! That's too much trouble. Let's eat out later."

"Brother Liu, you've just moved, you should cook at home." Wang Fang said with a grin.

"Cooking in a new house, shouldn't we choose an auspicious day?" he teased.

"This—"

"Never mind, you've both worked hard, let's eat out later. You decide what you like to eat first.
Next time you come over, I'll try your cooking."

"Okay." Wang Fang happily agreed and pulled Zhou Wei to the bedroom to make the bed.

Liu Bin sat on the living room sofa, smoking a cigarette while thinking about Wang Fang's behavior today, feeling somewhat
unable to understand this girl. If he hadn't experienced it himself, it would have been hard to imagine that this seemingly innocent and naive girl was the same
girl who had sold her virginity to him just days before. Even more unbelievable was that she acted as if
nothing had , as if they were old friends, showing no restraint whatsoever in his presence.
What kind of girl was she? Did she have a natural talent for acting? Thinking of acting, he suddenly thought of his divorced and remarried
wife. Before the incident, he hadn't noticed any signs of infidelity; perhaps she had concealed it too well? He shook
his head, unsure, and didn't think further. Anyway, his client had investigated, and the truth would soon be revealed.

Then he thought of Ma Xiaolan, who had also sold her virginity to him a few days ago. He
wondered what
her expression would be when she saw him tonight. Even after the two girls had made their beds and left the bedroom, he was still imagining his meeting with Ma Xiaolan tonight, completely lost in thought.

"What are you thinking about, Brother Liu?" Wang Fang asked with a smile.

"I'm thinking about where we should eat. By the way, have you decided what you want to eat?"

"Let's go to KFC," Wang Fang said.

"That stuff isn't very nutritious. They call it junk food in other countries. It'll only make you fat."

"How about seafood?" Wang Fang stuck out her tongue and made a face, then whispered to Zhou Wei beside her.
Seeing Zhou Wei nod, she turned to him and said, "Shall we go eat seafood?"

"Okay. How about the place we ate at the other night?" Having not been to the provincial capital for several years, this was the only place Liu Bin could
think of .

"Hmm." Speaking of the place from that night, a blush rose on Wang Fang's face, as if she was thinking about
what happened that day. She nodded shyly.

"Brother Liu—" Liu Bin had just entered the restaurant lobby when he ran into He Hua,
the traffic police .

"Brother He, I didn't expect to run into you here." Liu Bin was surprised by the coincidence and quickly stepped forward to shake He Hua
's hand.

"When did you get back? Why didn't you call me?"

"I came over today. I suddenly thought of eating out and remembered Brother He's place." He recalled
that He Hua had mentioned that night that this seafood restaurant was owned by his relative.

"That makes sense. How many of you are with you?"

"Just the three of us." Liu Bin pointed to the two girls following behind him.

"Let's eat together then. There are two ladies at my table, and we haven't started yet."

"Isn't that inappropriate?"

"It's nothing, just some acquaintances from the procuratorate."

"Alright then." Brother Liu knew He Hua's personality; he definitely wouldn't invite him to the same table if it wasn't suitable.

There were already two men and two women seated in the private room. When everyone saw He Hua go out to answer a phone call and then bring in a few people,
they all turned to look at him.

"This is my good brother—Liu Bin. I just happened to run into him in the lobby, so I called him over. These two are
his friends. Waiter, quickly bring three more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and two more dishes." After introducing Liu Bin to everyone, He Hua
instructed the waiter waiting in the private room.

"This is Section Chief Wu from the Municipal Procuratorate..." Then He Hua introduced the people at the table to Liu Bin one by one.

The group probably needed Zhu Hua's help, and seeing that Liu Bin was He Hua's friend, they all stood up and
shook hands . Section Chief Wu, nearly fifty years old, was the oldest of the four. He looked quite honest and sat to Zhu Hua's
left. Sitting next to Section Chief Wu was Liu Xiangcheng, a young man around thirty years old, who looked quite capable. To He Hua's
right was a woman in her thirties named Hong Ping, wearing glasses and exuding an intellectual air. With Liu Bin's
arrival, she had to give up her seat. Next to Hong Ping was Li Jiao, the youngest of the four, probably under
thirty .

"Old Wu, looks like you won't need to take these two bottles of wine back tonight," He
Hua said with a smile to Section Chief Wu after everyone had met and sat down.

Section Chief Wu chuckled and said, "Since we brought them, we shouldn't take them back."

"Boss, what else would you like to order?" the waiter asked He Hua, holding the menu.

"Brother, I'll leave that to you," He Hua said, handing the task of ordering to Liu Bin.

"Anything is fine. Oh, and Xiao Fang, see what you and your classmate want to eat, you're in charge," Liu Bin said, entrusting the task of
ordering Wang Fang, who was sitting nearby.

Wang Fang glanced at Liu Bin, seeing he wasn't joking, smiled mischievously, and then turned to Zhou Wei to
discuss what to order while looking at the menu.

Liu Bin had been drinking quite a bit these past few days. He had only planned to have a meal, but it turned into another drinking session. Section Chief Wu wasn't a big
drinker , but Liu Xiangcheng, who came with him, was. The ladies drank red wine,
and the four men covered the two bottles of baijiu (Chinese liquor). Section Chief Wu drank less than three liang (150ml), and the rest was split among the three of them.

When Liu Bin left the restaurant, he was a little unsteady on his feet. He wanted to tell the two girls to take a taxi first, but Wang Fang
insisted on taking him home first, so he had no choice but to take a taxi home with them.

Back in his rented room, Liu Bin lay down on the sofa and noticed that Zhou Wei, who had come in with him, was also a little unsteady on her feet.
He took out 100 yuan and said to Wang Fang, "Xiao Fang, Xiao Wei seems to have had too much to drink. You two should take a taxi home early."

It turned out that during the meal, the two ladies from the procuratorate had opened two bottles of red wine, saying that red wine was good for health and beauty, and had
insisted that the two girls, who didn't know their limits, drink two large glasses. Red wine takes effect slowly; at first, they seemed fine, but gradually
the alcohol kicked in.

Wang Fang didn't take the money, saying, "You've had too much to drink; you need someone to take care of you."

"I didn't drink much today, the least I've had in the past few days. It's okay, at least I can still
stand steadily . Besides, Xiao Lan will be here soon." He waved his hand, signaling them to leave first.

"Xiao Lan?" Wang Fang's expression froze upon hearing Xiao Lan's name. She glanced sideways
at Zhou Wei, who was leaning against the wall, swaying slightly, before quickly regaining her composure and saying, "Then we'll wait for her to come before we leave."

"Okay. Don't stand there; help Xiao Wei to the sofa to rest."

"No need to help, I'm not drunk, just a little dizzy." Zhou Wei pushed away Wang Fang, who came to help her, and stumbled
to the sofa, leaning back and reclining, completely lacking her previous ladylike demeanor. Wang Fang helped Zhou Wei straighten up
and said, "You two rest for a bit; I'll go boil some water."

When Wang Fang finished boiling the water and brought it out, she found that Zhou Wei seemed to have fallen asleep, her head resting
against . Wang Fang was about to help Zhou Wei sit up when Liu Bin's phone rang.

Liu Bin was still a little groggy, but the ringing phone woke him up. He sat up straight to get the phone, not
noticing Zhou Wei leaning against him. As soon as he lifted himself off the sofa, Zhou Wei slumped back against him
. Wang Fang quickly went to support her. Zhou Wei wasn't fully asleep; seeing someone move her, she squirmed and
mumbled , "Don't move me... let me lie down for a bit." Wang Fang could only look at Liu Bin with a wry smile.

Liu Bin picked up the phone and said, "It's Xiao Lan calling." He answered the phone; it turned out Ma Xiao Lan
had already finished work. He told Ma Xiao Lan that he had been drinking and couldn't come pick her up, asking her to take a taxi and call him when she got
near . He then gave her the name of the neighborhood and its approximate location.

After speaking with her, Liu Bin became more sober and said to Wang Fang, "Help her to her room to rest."
Wang Fang nodded, but Zhou Wei was too weak to lift alone, so Liu Bin stepped in
to help.

The two of them finally managed to get Zhou Wei to the bed in the small room and lay her down. Liu Bin thought to himself, "Luckily, I bought two sets of
bedding , otherwise I wouldn't know what to do." As he was leaving the room, Wang Fang called him back. He turned to look at
Wang Fang, and just as he was about to ask what was wrong, Wang Fang stepped forward, hugged him, and kissed him on the lips, saying, "Brother Liu,
I like you."

"Oh?" Wang Fang's confession surprised Liu Bin. Looking at her blushing face, he said, "How could you
like me?"

"I don't know, I've been thinking about you a lot these days."

"Then why didn't you text me?"

"I was afraid of bothering you."

Although he hadn't planned to have anything to do with Wang Fang today, holding her soft and fragrant body in his arms made his heart flutter
, and his little brother also reacted, starting to rise. Afraid of being discovered, he patted her back and
said, "Okay. Let's go to the living room to talk."

Sitting down in the living room, Liu Bin said, "Does Zhou Wei know about your relationship with me?" He wanted to find out more about this young girl
in front of him .

"No. After you called me, I told her that you are a distant relative of mine."

"You made her get drunk so you could talk to me alone?" Liu Bin suddenly remembered that Wang Fang seemed to have been
urging Zhou Wei, who was reluctant to drink, to drink at the dinner table. Although they had drunk about the same amount, it was obvious that Wang Fang could hold her liquor better than Zhou Wei
.

"Hmm." Embarrassed that Liu Bin had seen through her cleverness, Wang Fang blushed and lowered her head.

"Are you two close?"

"We're roommates, and from the same county."

Liu Bin nodded, thinking that Ma Xiaolan would be arriving soon, and felt it was
best to dissuade Wang Fang from her feelings to avoid embarrassment later. He said, "Xiao Fang, I'm happy you like me, and I like you too.

But I have to remind you, your current feelings for me might be because your family was very strict in the past,
and you haven't had much contact with men. I was the first man to enter your body, leaving a deep impression on you
, which is understandable. As you meet more boys in the future, you'll lose those feelings for me and
gradually forget me."

"I won't, Brother Liu," Wang Fang interjected, her face flushed.

Liu Bin smiled and said, "It's too early to say that now. Your current feelings for me are blind.
If in a year or two, after you've met many excellent men, you still like me, then that's true love
."

"I—" Wang Fang looked at him, blushing, hesitant to speak, seemingly unsure how to say it.

"You're willing to date me now, I welcome that. After all, I'm your first man. If you're
willing, we can be friends. If you have any difficulties, I'll definitely help you if I can."

Wang Fang nodded, about to say something, when Liu Bin's phone rang again, so she had to stop. Liu Bin picked it up
and saw it was Ma Xiaolan calling. He said, "She should have arrived." After answering, it was indeed her. He smiled and said to
Wang Fang , "Xiao Fang, could you go pick up Xiaolan for me?"

"Okay." Wang Fang nodded, got up, opened the door, and went out.

After Wang Fang left, Liu Bin smiled bitterly, feeling a bit of a headache. He had originally wanted to see Ma Xiaolan today,
after all, he had said last time that he wanted her to be his woman. Now that he had rented a house, he should have asked her to come and see it. Who knew that Wang Fang
also liked him, and it seemed that she couldn't change her mind all of a sudden. Ma Xiaolan would be arriving soon, and he really didn't know what
to do. Both of them were women he had been with, and both had given their virginity to him. It would
n't be right . However, with the two of them together, it was easy to hurt one of them if they weren't careful. Ma Xiaolan was kind, filial, and
still young. Just a few days ago, he had told her he wanted her to be his woman. If he were to hurt her today, it would be too
cruel . Wang Fang had just expressed her feelings for him and had been diligently taking care of him today. If she were to be hurt,
it would also be cruel and could potentially affect her future. How could he prevent either of them from getting hurt?

Before he could figure it out, Wang Fang had already accompanied Ma Xiaolan into the living room. Ma Xiaolan was
excited and wanted to run forward, but when she saw Wang Fang beside her, she stopped in her tracks, her face flushed, and she called out,
"Brother." She lowered her head shyly and stood in the living room.

Liu Bin looked at the shy Ma Xiaolan and the somewhat awkward Wang Fang, smiled, and said, "Come and
sit down, both of you."

The previously generous Wang Fang was now a little embarrassed, while Ma Xiaolan slowly came over upon hearing this. Liu Bin got up
and pulled the two women to sit beside him, putting his arms around their waists. He said, "Don't
be shy, you two. You're both my women, and you both gave me your first time. In terms of age, Xiao Fang is older, and in terms of being
with me first, she came first. So Xiao Fang is the older sister. Shouldn't the older sister take the lead? Come on, Xiao Fang, be
more outgoing, don't be so shy, raise your head."

Wang Fang raised her head upon hearing this, while Ma Xiaolan, seemingly afraid of displeasing Liu Bin, glanced at him shyly before
raising her head as well. He kissed them both on the forehead, then had them lean against him on either side, asking, "
Do you both like me?" They both nodded immediately. He continued, "Since you both like me,
you have to listen to me. You can't be jealous of each other. You have to be like sisters, caring for each other, showing courtesy, and understanding
. For example, if I kiss Xiaofang, Xiaolan can't have any objections; if I kiss Xiaolan, Xiaofang can't
complain After all, I only have one mouth, and I can't kiss both of you at the same time. Can you do that?"

They both nodded obediently.
