The banquet ended with a speech from the school leaders and deafening applause. Jiang Chen dragged his tipsy body to his Maybach S600. After he took out the key, he was stunned.
[Fu * k, how am I supposed to drive after drinking?]
[This is going to be troublesome.]
A bitter smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face. Although his metabolism was faster than the average person and he could sober up quickly, he was not like the masters in martial arts dramas who could instantly expel the alcohol from his body. The traffic police would not believe the words "I am not drunk".
With the key in his hand, he hesitated on whether or not he should "take the gamble". Finally, he sighed.
He took out the phone from his pocket and slid his finger across the screen, but a bitter smile appeared on his face.
[Fu * k, who should I call?]
Xia Shiyu just went back, it would not be a good idea to call her back.
[Liu Yao?]
When he saw the name, Jiang Chen's finger froze for a second before he pressed it.
"Hello?" A lazy female voice came from the other side of the phone as if she was about to fall asleep.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen forced a smile. "It's me."
"Jiang Chen?!" A joyful voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Don't you have the caller ID? Umm, where are you now?"
Lying on the bed, her white legs swung back and forth. A smile appeared on Liu Yao's face as she propped her chin with her hand. "I'm at home, what's up? Do you miss me? "
It was the first time Jiang Chen called her.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen didn't know how to answer as he awkwardly ignored the question.
"How far is your home from Wanghai University?"
Hearing this, Liu Yao could not help but pout.
"It's not that far. It's just two stops away from the subway outside."
"Ahem. I drank a bit and can't drive … Why don't you pick me up? It's at the artificial lake at Wanghai University, "Jiang Chen said shamelessly.
…
The moonlight was bright, and the lake rippled. The breeze blew by the lake, the cicadas chirped, and the elm trees rustled. It was already September, and the cool breeze already carried a hint of autumn.
Feeling the coolness on his arm, Jiang Chen leaned against the railing of the marble statue and stared at the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Speaking of which, when was the last time I passed by here?
Behind him was the English corner with long benches and green grass. It was a very suitable place for reading aloud.
Of course, it was also a very suitable place for public displays of affection, so the students preferred to call it Lover's Slope.
"What are you looking at?"
"Spacing out." Jiang Chen turned around and smiled against the fence. However, he was stunned by Liu Yao's appearance.
A milky white dress and high-soled sandals, that pure white …
"People who don't know would think you are a new student," Jiang Chen said with a bitter smile.
The corners of her mouth seemed to carry a little girl's complacency, and her pretty face under the streetlight was rather young and inexperienced.
… Did I drink too much?
Jiang Chen rubbed his temples.
"Of course, I just met a 'senior' who volunteered to give me a ride." Liu Yao smiled as she observed Jiang Chen's face.
"Oh."
Dissatisfied with Jiang Chen's calm reaction, Liu Yao pouted.
"Aren't you jealous?"
Jiang Chen smiled and turned his head to look at her eyes that were as bright as the lake.
The words "Why would I be jealous?" were frozen in his throat.
"Perhaps, a little."
He moved his eyes away from the pretty face and looked at the grass field that was decorated with fluorescent lights.
Liu Yao burst out laughing, and her pouting lips formed a crescent shape.
"Then, I told him that I already have a boyfriend, and then he walked away with a red face."
Jiang Chen shrugged and said with a smile, "How could you be so direct, he didn't even say he wanted to pursue you."
"But the look in his eyes, he didn't like anyone else other than you."
Hearing this, he paused for a moment before he fell into silence.
However, this silence was quickly broken.
"Do you want to be my boyfriend?"
"… Speaking of which, did you purposely dress like this?" Jiang Chen suddenly changed the topic and asked with a bitter smile.
That pure white dress, that unadorned face, and those eyes that were like the stars in the clear sky of a summer night ….
Liu Yao also didn't answer. Instead, she stood up from the railing and turned around on the gravel road.
The edge of her dress fluttered as she turned around with a smile.
"Like the girl who went to the movies with you?"
After a moment of silence, perhaps because of the alcohol, Jiang Chen suddenly burst out laughing.
"She's not a good person, why are you copying her?" After laughing enough, he also stood up from the railing and said with a grin.
"Is she like the person in your imagination?"
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he asked confusedly, "Is there a difference?"
But as soon as the words left his mouth, the answer rushed into his mind.
In his imagination, she was pure, innocent, and romantic. Although he later realized that everything was fake, he did like the seemingly innocent Fang Yuanyuan.
Liu Yao looked at Jiang Chen with a smile. She didn't know the girl, but she vaguely guessed what kind of person he had met. So she played a little trick and changed into the dress she wore when she left the house.
"Like a traveler in the desert, heading towards a non-existent country, walking alone," Jiang Chen murmured to himself as he stared blankly at the loving couple on the lawn.
"Pfft, you know how to write poems?"
"No, it's just a boring person's complaint."
He didn't know why, but he missed Sun Jiao, the cunning girl.
Perhaps this was the reason why he fell in love with her?
The willfulness that dared to love and hate, the straightforwardness that was written all over her face, the naughtiness that came up with any "bad idea" that came to her mind. Although she was transforming into a civilized person, Jiang Chen always had the urge to tell her "this is fine" because girls like her were almost extinct in the modern world.
What else could be true here?
Suddenly, softness covered his lips, and he stared blankly at those lightly closed eyes.
Lips parted.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen slowly opened his mouth.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Mhmm."
"If we don't talk about material things, what do you like about me?"
If it was just money, there should be a lot of rich people.
Liu Yao suddenly smiled. "Perhaps, it's because of respect."
The smile was beautiful, but also helpless.
"I see."
Because she wasn't respected, she wanted to be respected?
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he asked thoughtfully.
"Then do you know why I accepted your invitation to vacation together?"
"Because of regret?"
Jiang Chen lowered his eyes. He didn't deny it, nor did he confirm it.
"… Take me home."
Liu Yao's expression was slightly disappointed, but she still nodded with a smile.
"Mhmm."
…
Leaning against the soft seat, Jiang Chen let out a long sigh. He then pulled on his collar that made him feel a bit stuffy.
"Mingxing Rich Villas, the innermost building. Do you know the way? "
"There is GPS navigation." Liu Yao forced a smile. She had never been to the rich area.
Jiang Chen didn't say anything. He watched as Liu Yao turned on the GPS, set the destination, and closed her eyes to rest.
The car drove smoothly. After Liu Yao drove the car out of the campus, she sped up a bit. He opened his eyes and used the corner of his eyes to look at the neon lights flying by outside the window. He suddenly asked in a casual tone.
"How have you been?"
"Not good." Liu Yao held onto the steering wheel and pouted.
"Oh? Why? "
"Because someone didn't fulfill the movie they promised me." The voice was full of resentment.
"Hehe, how much?" Jiang Chen took advantage of the alcohol and laughed carelessly.
Screech!
The car suddenly stopped.
Liu Yao parked the car on the side of the road, unbuckled her seatbelt, and stared at him.
In her eyes, were there tears?
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Chen forced a smile.
"In your eyes, I'm just a whore, right?"
Jiang Chen was taken aback. He didn't expect her reaction to be so intense with just one sentence.
"Do you still remember the lover lock at the end of the earth?"
His throat moved slightly. He looked to the side and didn't know what to say. Of course he remembered, because he engraved Chen Lele on it.
The pure and cute girl, the character that only existed in movies and TV shows.
"Can't I be your Chen Lele?"
"But you're not-"
"I am."
His lips were once again sealed by the soft and warm touch.
The seatbelt was unbuckled. He reached out and hugged the soft and hot body.
He was sober, but he was even more drunk.
It was already 10 o 'clock at night. There were very few people on the street, and the occasional car that passed by left a muffled sound.
The Maybach's soundproofing was very good. It was almost impossible to hear the sounds outside. Correspondingly, it was impossible to hear the sounds inside. Through the dark lacquered glass, he could see the occasional passerby, but from the outside, it was impossible to see inside the car.
He hugged Liu Yao tightly, inhaling the intoxicating fragrance in her hair, listening to the suppressed moans, and letting the sweat mixed with the smell of alcohol drip down.
Maybe alcohol is contagious?
Or maybe it's just the feeling of being drunk.
All in all, he didn't want to think about it anymore.
At the intersection of summer and autumn, the feeling of spring continued in the car.
