The two of them sat quietly on their respective seats, drinking their wine.
After a long time, Lin Jiayi suddenly raised her head and asked Xia Shangzhou, "Navigator, how old are you?"
"I'm a year older than Boss."
"That means you're two years younger than me …" Lin Jiayi's lips curled up into a light smile, but her eyes shone brilliantly. "… Wimpy brat."
"…" Wimpy brat? That's even worse than Navigator …
"Hey, little brother, have you ever liked someone before?"
Xia Shangzhou: "…" Little brother? That's even worse than Wimpy brat …
Xia Shangzhou fell silent for a moment before shaking his head. "No."
He used to think that Little Junior Sister was his goddess, but that kind of feeling, let alone liking her, he couldn't even say that his heart was moved.
Hearing Xia Shangzhou's reply, Lin Jiayi gulped down a huge cup of wine in disappointment. "I thought that you already have someone you like. At least I'll be able to listen to your story …"
As she spoke, Lin Jiayi glanced at her wine glass and stroked it lightly with her fingertips. "I once liked someone, and I liked him very, very much. I liked him so much that … I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him."
Xia Shangzhou knew that Lin Jiayi was talking about Qin Ting, but he feigned ignorance and asked, "What happened after that?"
"After that … After that, he died … He died in a car accident eight years ago … It was a car that fell off a cliff, and not even his bones were left behind …"
So that's how he died … Xia Shangzhou squeezed the wine cup in his hand. "Boss Lin, my condolences. If he were still alive, he would surely wish for you to be happy."
"I was very happy. I thought that earning money would make me happy, so I've been earning money like a madman all these years … I thought that buying and buying would make me happy, so I've been working hard to buy and buy all these years … I'll only allow myself to be sad for one day, and that day is today …"
Of the four of them in Room 501, Xia Shangzhou knew that he was the most clumsy one. He had no idea how he should console Lin Jiayi, so he pondered for a moment before saying, "Boss Lin, you'll meet better people in the future."
"I meet good people every day. You see, there are so many people chasing after me. It's not like you don't know that they are all good people, but … do you know? Navigator, after he left, I never thought about getting married. I just wanted to spend the rest of my life alone. "
When Xia Shangzhou heard this, he smiled. "Boss Lin, you won't be alone for the rest of your life. I'll be with you."
Lin Jiayi thought that Xia Shangzhou was joking with her, so she chuckled softly. A moment later, she said, "Navigator, even though those are just words of consolation, I still have to thank you for it …"
As she spoke, Lin Jiayi stared at the GPS and continued, "I think that what your parents said is right. You're not young anymore, so it's about time for you to find a good girl, get into a good relationship, and live a good life …"
Xia Shangzhou said nothing and only smiled.
Lin Jiayi poured herself another cup of wine and said, "Navigator, I'll keep an eye out for you. I'll introduce you to some good girls when I meet them."
Xia Shangzhou did not refuse. "Thank you," he said.
Lin Jiayi didn't say a word. Instead, she continued to pour cup after cup of wine down her throat.
Xia Shangzhou didn't say anything else either. He knew that she would get drunk, so he tried his best to restrain himself.
He wasn't looking at her. His eyes were fixed on the window, but her silhouette was reflected in the window.
