Chapter 3: Wisdom Saves the Bathing Beauty

  Zhou Yan was not yet seventeen years old, but she had already developed into a slender and elegant girl, with full breasts that were firm and plump. Among her peers, her figure had made many of her female classmates envious, while also making many male classmates steal glances at her.

  She was bathing, completely unaware of the danger that was happening. Her slender and delicate body was turned sideways to Wang Yu, making her waist look even more slim and attractive. The white bath foam covered some private areas, preventing Wang Yu from seeing everything.

  The shower's water flow was very strong, and the sound of the water was loud. She stood outside the water, humming a tune that wasn't clear, as she caressed her sleek and enticing body. Her movements were gentle, her posture alluring, and when she accidentally touched sensitive areas, her voice would tremble slightly, continuing to rub the bath bubbles onto other parts of her body.

  Wang Yu, after initial admiration, secretly cursed himself as a beast, suppressing his desires, wanting to warn Zhou Yan of the danger through the small hole. However, his shouts were muffled by the sound of water, and Zhou Yan was already somewhat dazed. She leaned forward, her hands against the wall, her body swaying, a pair of jade-like breasts hanging vertically towards the ground, her strength weakening, half-closing her eyes, softly falling into the corner of the wall.

  Wang Yu's fist slammed into the wall, and a tile cracked in the middle with spider-like marks: "Even if it was just for the eye candy earlier, I couldn't let her get hurt! I'll make the sacrifice!"

  He rushed out of the bathroom, casually snatched a piece of clothing from the chair and put it on. With more than 500 yuan left in his wallet, he generously knocked on the landlady's door.

  "Auntie, I'm here to pay the rent!" Wang Yu shouted loudly and anxiously. Every second of delay would put Zhou Yan in greater danger, if they were late in rescuing her, who would be responsible for any brain damage or sequelae?

  "What are you knocking on, in a hurry to reincarnate? What did you say? Paying rent? The sun is rising from the west today? Just now I was chasing and beating you for not giving, my mother just came home to make a facial mask, and you're making trouble again? Are you trying to sneak a peek at my daughter taking a bath? Let me tell you, no way! Stay away from my daughter, get rid of the idea of a toad eating swan meat! Don't think I don't know about you, how many times have you secretly gone to pick up Little Yan from school, just relying on these small tricks..."

  The landlady was furious and shouted, opening the door to scold Wang Yu again. Anyway, making a face mask, she had nothing better to do.

  The moment she opened the door, her eyes were covered by several red banknotes.

  Wang Yu held the money in both hands, bowed to the ground, and tears welled up in his eyes: "Auntie, don't say anything else, I know I was wrong! From today on, I'll change my ways and become a good person! It's better to take action than just think about it. Here, I've prepared to pay a month's rent first, but..."

  The landlady had already snatched the money from Wang Yu's hand, counted it, a total of 550 yuan, 500 for rent and about 50 for utilities, enough for one month's rent. After checking if there were any counterfeit bills, she quickly put them in her pocket and then wanted to close the door.

  "Auntie, isn't there a receipt missing?" Wang Yu's heart was racing so fast she felt like vomiting blood, but still had to put on a smile.

  "What? Are you still afraid that Auntie will default on her debt? You don't even go and ask around, has Zhang Guifang ever owed anyone money? Defaulted on anyone's account? You..."

  "Auntie, I was wrong again! I shouldn't have judged you with a petty mind! But without the receipt, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night and eat during the day! Honestly, this is an illness! In veterinary terms, this is called obsessive-compulsive disorder and perfectionism syndrome!"

  "Alas, look at you... A man should have a broad mind, but you... never mind, never mind, I won't say anything to you! Come in, Auntie will find the receipt for you! It was written three months ago, now I don't know where it is!"

  Wang Yu's tears flowed freely, after a whole day of nonsense and pretending to be a good grandson, isn't it just to find an opportunity to rescue Zhou Yan?

  "I'm going to the study to find the receipt, you just sit on the sofa in the living room, don't look around, my daughter is taking a bath inside! What are you looking at? Are you itching for something? Why are you still looking towards the bathroom?"

  The landlady shouted sternly, picked up a broom and rushed towards Wang Yu.

  "Slow! Your house has a gas leak...... Can you smell what it is?" Wang Yu remained unmoved, the broom fell on his back, he didn't dodge, still half squatting at the bathroom door, his face sternly shouted.

  Wang Yu let out a loud roar, his eyes flashing with a fierce glint, and his face suddenly revealed a few points of ferocity. His entire demeanor changed, like a leopard ready to pounce, emitting an inexplicable aura of terror from all over his body.

  The landlady was so frightened that her legs went soft, and the broom she had raised high could no longer come down.

  "How is this possible? We just replaced the gas pipe at home last week... I have a face mask on, and the fragrance is blocking the smell of gas..."

  "Are you crazy? Is the mask more important or is your daughter more important?" Wang Yu tore off the mask on Baozu's face and shouted, "Quickly go in and take a look at Zhou Yan. If Zhou Yan is fine, or if there is no gas leak, I'll admit to paying an extra year's rent!"

  It was the first time that Bao Zhu Po saw Wang Yu get angry, and his momentum was extremely frightening, just like the high-level leaders she had seen in her unit, with a strong aura on him that ordinary people couldn't withstand.

  But how did this small animal doctor, who can't even find a job, cultivate such a strong aura?

  The tenant's mind was in a daze, but his consciousness obediently followed Wang Yu's command and went to twist the bathroom door.

  Bang! Bang!

  The bathroom door is locked from the inside!

  "Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan... are you washed up? Have you smelled the gas smell? Answer me... ah? Xiao Yan..." After shouting several times, Mrs. Bao's face changed greatly, as if she had already sensed that something was wrong inside.

  "Maybe she's fainted! Get out of the way! I'll kick the door in!" Wang Yu said, not waiting for the landlady to react, he kicked his foot near the door lock!

  Bang! Splash!

  The main body of the bathroom door is solid wood, with frosted glass on top. The wooden door didn't kick open, but only cracked three or four slits, yet shattered the glass above.

  A pungent smell of coal gas mixed with the dampness of water vapor hit me in the face.

  The landlady's nose was keen enough to smell the gas, and she let out a shrill cry: "Xiao Yan, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Mommy!"

  With a single kick, the door creaked open in response. The position of the lock was now a large hole, with the solid wood shattered into pieces.

  Wang Yu no longer cared about anything else, rushed into the bathroom, found Zhou Yan in the corner of the wall, turned off the gas valve with one hand, and carried her out of the bathroom.

  "Bring a blanket over and hurry up and send her to the hospital!" Wang Yu shouted at the stunned landlady.

  "Aren't you a doctor? Hurry up and save Little Yan, waaah... my daughter, such a good girl, she secretly sent you so many delicious things, you have to save her... Save her..."

  The landlady saw her daughter's purple lips and rushed over. No matter how hard she shook her, Zhou Yan didn't respond.

  "My dad is a veterinarian! Never mind, before 120 comes, I'll play doctor for a bit! First give her CPR and chest compressions... Open the window on the balcony first, then spread out a blanket, we're going to do it on the balcony!"

  "What? You want to do it on the balcony?" The landlady who was dialing 120 screamed in shock.
