"Oh! Oh! Okay, I'll head up to the dorm to pack my things, let the guys know, and then come back down to meet you!" Shawn Young said excitedly.
"Hehe—look at you, can't wait! You must really miss Raina (Sis)! You're all pent up!" Joanna Gong said with a laugh.
"Yeah, and you too! Later at Raina's place, the three of us can have some fun together, hehe—" Shawn said mischievously. Just thinking of Raina Tang and Joanna Gong, two absolute stunners soon to be writhing beneath him, sent his blood boiling with anticipation.
"Uh—three of us? What's that?" Joanna Gong had no idea what the term meant.
"Hehe—you'll find out soon enough! Wait for me downstairs, I won't be long!" Shawn teased, keeping her in suspense as he quickly darted up to the dorm.
Soon he arrived at the door of Dorm 2. The door was wide open, and Shawn immediately spotted a pile of luggage stacked at the entrance. Looking inside, he saw three guys and two girls—Danny Dean, May Gu, Jake Jewel, Autumn Jiang, and sitting on the bed smoking gloomily, Alex Easton.
"Oh—Third Bro, you finally made it back! You're living the life, huh? Took off and had fun for a whole day and night—bet it was wild!" Alex Easton, sitting on the bed smoking, was the first to spot Shawn and called out.
"Uh—yeah, it was... not bad, haha—" Shawn remembered that after he went to meet Minnie Wang that night, Alex and the others stayed behind with Charles Morin.
"Shawn, we're planning a trip to Yunnan—do you want to ask Joanna to come with us?" May Gu asked from the side.
"Oh—no need, Joanna's waiting for me downstairs right now, and I've still got a pile of unfinished business. No time to sneak away, so I'll have to skip out this time. You all go ahead and have a blast! Heh—" Shawn Young waved his hand hurriedly.
"Well, that's that then. Big Bro, Third Bro, it's getting late—we've got a train to catch! Have an awesome summer, see you in two months!" Jake Jewel glanced at the time and hurriedly waved goodbye.
"Big Bro, Third Bro, happy summer break! Keep in touch, okay? We're off—" Danny Dean waved to Shawn Young and Alex Easton, then grabbed May Gu's hand, picked up their luggage, and headed downstairs with Jake Jewel and Autumn Jiang.
Once the four of them left, Shawn Young turned to Alex Easton, who was sulking and chain-smoking at the edge of the bed. "Big Bro, what's up? Not heading home? You look pretty down!"
"Sigh—you have no idea. That night after you left, we were planning to party with that Morin family heir, but he got hauled off by the cops! Talk about bad luck! Party plans ruined, I live in town, and now I'm single again! Total bummer—" Alex Easton groaned, face twisted in frustration.
"Wait, Big Bro, you know so many women—how can you not have a girlfriend? Just pick one at random and you'll be set!" Shawn Young asked, genuinely puzzled.
"You don't get it, Third Bro. Ever since I met that woman, I stopped hanging out with the old crowd. She played me good, and now with summer break, all the other girls have gone home. I'm left all alone—never thought I'd see the day! Damn, what rotten luck!" Alex Easton took a hard drag on his cigarette.
Shawn Young paused. He'd considered inviting Alex Easton to Raina Tang's place—since Alex and Raina were old friends anyway. But then he remembered his plan for a steamy "threesome" with Raina Tang and Joanna Gong tonight. No way he wanted anyone else in on that fun, so he nixed the idea. Suddenly, he remembered he'd promised Minnie Wang he'd attend tonight's charity gala, so he stepped out to the balcony, whipped out his phone, and dialed Minnie Wang to let her know he wanted to bring Alex Easton as his plus one.
Minnie Wang agreed right away. The charity gala tonight had a special area for the sons and daughters of business bigshots to mingle and network. These parties are a tradition in business circles—youngsters get to know each other, make connections, maybe even find a match. The place would be crawling with socialites and heirs—a perfect hunting ground for guys like Shawn Young and Alex Easton.
"Heh heh—Big Bro, there's a huge party tonight. If you're not busy, let me take you out for some fun!" Shawn Young laughed after hanging up.
