Sang Yan's eyebrows twitched and stopped playing with his phone.
The atmosphere froze.
Wen Yifan suddenly realized that her words seemed to be more straightforward than the example given by Zhong Siqiao. She stared into his pitch-black eyes for two seconds before she calmly looked away.
The last time something similar happened was when they first met at the "OverTime" bar.
But at that time, Wen Yifan thought that Sang Yan couldn't recognize her, and she felt that it was difficult to explain the situation, so she simply gave up and said, "That's quite a pity." She would never see him again.
But this time, both of them were sober and knew each other's background.
She didn't try to hide it.
Wen Yifan didn't know if her test was successful or not, she felt that she had to stop there. She stood up and said calmly, "Then pay more attention in the future, I'm going to rest first."
She took a few steps.
Sang Yan who was behind her said, "Wait a minute."
Wen Yifan pursed her lips and turned around after adjusting her emotions.
"Tell me." Sang Yan looked into her eyes and sat up straight. His tone was not very serious, "Are you afraid that you will commit a crime?"
"… …" Wen Yifan bit the bullet and said, "I'm just answering your question."
What he meant was.
Nor do I know what crime you mean by inducing sin.
"Oh." Sang Yan understood, "You want to kiss — —"
"… …"
Kiss?
Wen Yifan's eyes flashed unnaturally for a moment. She didn't think so far ahead, she just wanted to use Sang Yan's words to see what kind of attitude he had towards her.
She was about to refute.
Sang Yan continued to say, "— Offend me."
"… …"
Oh.
It's not a kiss, it's an invasion.
You want to violate me.
Wen Yifan, "… …"
It was as if a boulder-sized cauldron had suddenly fallen on top of her.
Wen Yifan was dumbfounded. She frantically tried to think of a way to make him understand that the crime she was talking about was not that serious.
She didn't wait for her to think of an excuse.
The next moment.
Sang Yan suddenly threw his phone aside and leaned back on the chair. He raised his head and stared straight at her. His fine black hair was scattered on his forehead, his eyes reflected the light in the living room. It seemed like a provocation, but it also seemed like a blatant seduction.
"Come over if you dare."
…
He returned to his room.
After closing the door, Wen Yifan leaned against the door and slowly sighed in relief. She calmed her breathing and went into the bathroom to wash her face. All she could hear was the sound of her heartbeat.
It took him a long time to recover.
Wen Yifan turned off the tap and took a tissue to wipe her face. She stared at herself in the mirror and began to daydream again. Sang Yan's last four words stuck in his head like glue. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get rid of them.
"Come over if you dare."
How would she dare?
How could she have the guts to do that?!
Thinking of this, Wen Yifan washed her face again, trying to make herself more rational.
Wen Yifan remembered that she barely said, "That's not what I meant." Then she turned around and went back to her room without stopping. But it was only a few minutes ago, and she couldn't remember how well she had controlled her emotions this time.
He was still calm and composed.
Or did he look like he was running away?
Wen Yifan sighed. She didn't know if her behavior just now was impulsive or not.
Since separating from Zhong Siqiao, Wen Yifan's mind had been thinking about Sang Yan's blind date on the way home. Although it had nothing to do with her.
It was all Sang Yan's business.
His family felt that it was reasonable for him to arrange a partner for him since he was of age. She should be like how she used to be, listening to it and just let it go. She didn't need to ask or interfere too much.
But because of tonight's incident, Wen Yifan suddenly realized that many behaviors were uncontrollable.
Even if she always felt that it wasn't good and shouldn't be like this, she would still break that safe distance because of some things. It turned out that not all of her words and actions and the emotions she displayed were rational.
She also had emotions.
She didn't expect the possessiveness.
She also wanted to get closer to him.
But she was afraid that the distance was too far.
Sang Yan came from a good family and was born well. He opened a bar at a young age, and his current job was better than his peers. As long as he wanted to do something, he could easily do it. He had never encountered any setbacks.
He was born with excellent conditions, and he had the right to be arrogant.
But she was completely different.
Although Wen Yifan didn't have much concept of appearance, she knew that she was indeed good-looking from the words of others. But she didn't think that it was a good condition.
After all, there were many good-looking people.
In addition to a serious job, Wen Yifan had nothing else. She lived frugally all the time. He had long since given up on dancing, the only thing he could be praised for. Even his personality was plain and dull, so boring that there was nothing to write home about.
Wen Yifan never thought that she would be worth being remembered by others for many years.
She didn't know the difference between Sang Yan and her now.
Was it because they got along after reuniting?
Or was it just because she was a hurdle that he hadn't crossed yet?
Wen Yifan couldn't see through Sang Yan's thoughts just from tonight's test.
But he didn't seem to have much resistance, nor did he deliberately change the topic. Instead, he seemed to have the intention to "fight". She didn't know if he could understand what she was thinking.
Wen Yifan really couldn't tell.
Did he feel that she was imitating his words, or did he really notice something strange?
Do I have to test him a few more times?
In this regard, Wen Yifan was just a rookie and had no experience at all.
She sighed.
Wen Yifan went out of the toilet.
She thought of Sang Yan's expression and tone when he said the last sentence.
Sigh, it's true.
Top card.
Every year, the frost didn't necessarily fall on the same day, October 23rd to 24th.
This year, Wen Yifan's birthday was the day after the frost. In the previous years, she would either lie at home for a day, or have a meal with her colleagues after work to celebrate.
Wen Yifan ended her rest on that day and went to work early. When she finished working overtime and took the subway home, it was almost eleven o 'clock in the evening.
She told Sang Yan in advance that she would be home late.
Sang Yan only replied: [Okay]
In addition, there were many unread messages in the message list.
They were all birthday wishes.
Wen Yifan thanked them one by one, except for Zhao Yuandong. She pulled the ring and looked at her blurred face in the reflection of the window. After a while, she realized that she had aged another year.
Unknowingly, it was twenty-four.
Sang Yan was the same age as her.
Twenty-four shouldn't be considered old.
Why did he start going on blind dates?
She wondered if he had met a girl he liked.
Wen Yifan let her imagination run wild all the way home. She only came back to her senses when she got home. It was late. She was afraid to wake Sang Yan up, so she quietly closed the door and locked it.
When she turned to look at the sofa, she found that Sang Yan was still in the living room, looking down at his phone.
Wen Yifan didn't want to disturb him and planned to go straight to her room.
The next moment, Sang Yan called her, "Wen Yifan."
Wen Yifan, "Yes?"
"Do me a favor." Sang Yan said slowly, "Help me get the box in the fridge."
"Okay." Wen Yifan hung her bag aside and turned to go into the kitchen. She opened the fridge and looked inside. She saw a cake box on the top. She was stunned and reached out to take it out.
She couldn't see what was inside the cardboard box.
It looked like a birthday cake.
Wen Yifan looked at it for a while and walked back to the living room with the cake box. She put the box on the coffee table, not sure if the cake was bought for her. She hesitated for a few seconds, "Then I'll go rest?"
"… …"
Sang Yan looked up and stared at her, "Let's eat together."
Wen Yifan nodded and sat on the sofa. She scratched her head awkwardly and looked at him. She asked calmly, "Did you buy this for me?"
Sang Yan leaned forward and opened the cake box. He said casually, "I just bought it."
It seemed to be a tacit agreement.
Wen Yifan blinked, "Thank you."
There was a strawberry cake inside. It was about six inches big.
It looked particularly beautiful. The white cream was decorated with a circle of strawberries, and there were also rose like flowers scattered on it. There was a small sign next to it that said 'Happy Birthday'.
Sang Yan took out the candle and quietly did not say anything.
He hadn't received a birthday cake for many years.
Wen Yifan stared at the cake and looked up. She whispered, "Can I take a photo?"
Sang Yan looked at her, "Yes."
Wen Yifan took out her phone from her pocket and took a few photos of the cake.
Sang Yan looked at her. After she finished taking photos, he put a candle on the cake. He took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the candle. He said calmly, "Make a wish."
Wen Yifan pulled herself back from her thoughts. She tilted her head and thought for a while. Soon, she blew out the candle.
Sang Yan asked casually, "What wish?"
Wen Yifan, "Didn't I tell you that it won't work?"
"If you don't tell me," Sang Yan laughed, "How can I help you realize it?"
"… …"
Wen Yifan's heart was beating faster when she looked at him. She licked the corner of her lips and looked away. She picked up the cake knife and said, "It's related to my work."
"Oh." Sang Yan took out a paper plate from the bag and said in an irritating tone, "I thought you wanted me to be your boyfriend."
"… …"
Wen Yifan stopped and didn't look at him when she heard this. She didn't answer him. She put a piece of cake on the paper plate and put it in front of him, "Then I'll cut this for you? It's not good to eat too much cake at this hour. "
Sang Yan looked thoughtful as he stared at her expression.
After a long time, he only responded with a 'hmm' and didn't continue to speak.
It was almost twelve o 'clock.
Wen Yifan finished the cake in her hand and cleaned up the table. She stuffed the rest of the cake back into the cake box and stood up with the cake in her arms, "It's almost twelve o 'clock, you should rest early."
Sang Yan, "Okay."
Wen Yifan returned to the kitchen and put the cake box back in its original position. She went out of the living room and was about to return to her room when she bumped into Sang Yan who was also about to return to his room.
Sang Yan stopped and blocked her path.
Wen Yifan stopped as well.
Sang Yan called her again, "Wen Yifan."
Wen Yifan, "What's wrong?"
There was silence for three seconds.
Sang Yan looked at the direction of the clock.
"The gift is under the coffee table." Sang Yan raised his chin and said lazily, "Go get it yourself."
Wen Yifan didn't react in time.
The next second.
Sang Yan suddenly bent down and looked at her at the same level. Their gazes met for two seconds. He raised his hand absentmindedly and rubbed her head hard.
"Happy birthday."
… …
Sang Yan withdrew his hand and went back to his room.
As soon as he closed the door, the phone in his pocket rang. He took it out, strode to the bedside and sat down. Then he casually looked at the caller ID.
It was Su Haoan.
Sang Yan picked up the phone.
"Come out for a drink tomorrow night, I'm in love." Su Haoan smiled, "My girlfriend's girlfriends are not bad looking. Come, dad will introduce them to you so that you can get rid of your single life."
"Oh, it's none of my business." Sang Yan said, "I'm hanging up."
"Are you human? Tell me what you've been doing recently! How long has it been since you last 'worked overtime'? "Su Haoan was very unhappy," Hurry up, if you don't come out tomorrow, I'll go to your house. "
"I've been confirming something recently." Sang Yan was in a good mood when he thought of what just happened, "I'm not free for a while. How about you? Love, love, love. If you want to drink, drink. Don't bother me. "
Su Haoan, "What is it?"
Sang Yan pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
"Confirming what?!" Su Haoan was kept in suspense, "Tell me, let me give you some advice."
Sang Yan still didn't say a word.
Su Haoan asked a few more questions, but he didn't get any response. He got angry, "Are you going to tell me or not?!"
"Okay." Sang Yan reluctantly said, "Then just say a few words."
“？”
"Recently, a girl wants to hit on me." Sang Yan dragged the last syllable and said slowly, "I don't have time to deal with others, understand?"
