◎Do bad things◎
The feeling of being hungover is not good. When he woke up, Chen Jing'an felt a headache, as if he didn't get enough sleep, and he felt even more tired.
When her consciousness returned, she noticed that the concealed tie on her hand was wrapped around the palm of her hand, and she was holding it tightly. She couldn't remember how it came about, but she only knew that it had a soft texture and should not be cheap. It was Shen Lie's. .
She was in Qianwan. I don’t quite remember how she came back.
Chen Jing'an propped up the bed with her arms and found the cell phone stuffed under the pillow, several missed calls from Ruan Ling, and messages asking about her.
"Bao, do you feel better?"
"Are you sober?"
"I won't let you drink so much next time."
"I was wrong, I repent, I am a sinner!"
"..."
"Bao ...Are you still alive?"
Chen Jing'an called back, and the person on the other end answered the phone quickly. Before she could say anything, she anxiously asked a series of questions, speaking very quickly, and finally asked the most concerning question: " Shen Lie didn't do anything to you, right?"
"Well, why do you ask?"
"Don't you remember?" Ruan Ling said again, "You were drunk last night, and Shen Lie came to pick you up, and you still scolded him. Yesterday, I wanted to cover your mouth, but Shen Lie's aura was so scary that I really didn't dare to move."
"..."
After Ruan Ling reminded him, Chen Jing'an vaguely remembered something.
"Baby, Shen Lie didn't do anything to you, right?" Ruan Ling asked.
"No, don't worry, there are no missing arms or legs, and the limbs are still intact." Chen Jing'an thought for a while and answered truthfully.
"When did you learn that cold joke?! I was almost scared to death. I had nightmares all night."
Chen Jing'an rubbed his forehead and could only comfort: "It's really nothing. Don't scare yourself. I'll wait for you. " Go back to school."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up, Chen Jing'an went into the bathroom, took off her makeup, washed up, and took a shower. When the water poured on her face, she vaguely remembered more parts, such as why she was wearing a tie. It would be in her hands, because she grabbed Shen Lie's tie, pushed him down, turned over and sat on him, threatening to let him taste the feeling of being forcefully kissed.
"..."
She really shouldn't touch wine.
Chen Jing'an washed and dried her hair, lingering for a long time before going downstairs, hoping that Shen Lie had already left for work, so that she could avoid embarrassment.
But unfortunately, Shen Lie didn't give her this chance. He sat at the dining table, holding a spoon, slowly drinking porridge and having breakfast. When he saw her coming downstairs, he asked her to come over for dinner.
"Okay."
Chen Jing'an sat down silently. She had no appetite and sipped her milk. Thinking of what happened last night, in the living room and on the sofa, the silence became deeper. She could still sit down calmly and have breakfast with him. , it has been very hard to endure.
It would be best if no one mentioned it and just let it go.
"Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Shen Lie pushed over the warm porridge and asked.
"I don't feel bad anymore."
"Drink less in the future. You're not a good drinker."
"Yeah."
Chen Jing'an also looked at Shen Lie at this time, focusing entirely on his lips. There was a little broken skin, fresh. The wound was too glaring on his clean face.
Did she do it?
Chen Jing'an choked for a moment and couldn't say anything. Shen Lie sensed her gaze and lowered his eyes to look down. He knew what she was looking at and said calmly: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt. You No need to feel guilty."
In a way, it can be regarded as her masterpiece.
The scene of the unscrupulous biting last night was clear. She was ashamed and had no idea how she could do that. After biting her lip, she sincerely apologized.
"I've never been drunk before, so I didn't know I was like this."
"It's not bad, but it's just a bit embarrassing to go out like this." He was referring to himself.
Chen Jing'an thought for a while. When he came in and out of the office like this, it was inevitable that people would see him and think about him, which would damage his image.
"I'm sorry."
"After drinking, I'm full of guts. When I wake up, I keep apologizing. I'd rather you tell the truth when you're drunk. I deserve the ridicule." Shen Lie had already finished eating, took out a tissue, and pressed his lips, " You don’t need to apologize. I always repay you. I’ll get back everything you owed me last night.”
“Don’t remember?”
And because of his business instinct, he wanted it with interest.
Chen Jing'an thought of the moment again and her face turned red. She would rather forget it all.
Shen Lie then spoke leisurely: "I can now answer your question last night, because it was you. Being kissed by force felt good. If you want revenge next time, I can do it anytime, anywhere."
"I haven't always Drunk!" She will never do such an outrageous thing again in her life.
Chen Jing'an wished she could delete all the memories of last night, so that she wouldn't be so embarrassed that her hands and feet were curled up and she had nowhere to put them. She still had more than half of the glass of milk she was holding after drinking it for a long time. Most of the time, she just touched it tactically and covertly. Clink glasses.
"If you hold it again, it will turn into hot milk." Shen Lie reminded her.
Chen Jing'an put down the milk.
Speaking of what happened last night, I'm afraid I won't have much appetite today.
Shen Lie asked her when her classes would end on Friday. He was traveling to a southern city this time, which was quite close to her home. The high-speed train only took two hours. He could take her and go home halfway.
Hearing him mention her family, Chen Jing'an inevitably thought of her uncle's affairs and shook her head. She hoped that their relationship would not involve family members. The less they knew, the cleaner it would end.
"I don't want to disturb you while you're working."
"You can treat it as a trip. You can wander around the city as you like while I'm working."
Chen Jing'an was thinking seriously and seemed to have no reason to refuse anymore. She really wanted to bother the north. I really wanted to go back to the south to visit. I thought for a moment and then nodded and said, "If it's not troublesome."
"It's not troublesome. If it's convenient, there will be a cocktail party that night and I'm short of a female companion."
Huh?
Chen Jing'an thought for a moment that she was hearing something. Shen Lie used "if it's convenient" here, asking her for her opinion, instead of telling her to dress up and attend the dinner as his female companion as before.
She didn't adapt to his sudden behavior. She couldn't help but wonder if there was a trap waiting for her to jump.
-Chen
Jing'an indeed rarely participated in such activities. The last time it was Qin Yinian who wanted to introduce her to Qin Yuanming, that night, when she looked at the room full of drunken people, she knew clearly that this was not her world.
She had forced her way in and was therefore out of place.
The dress has been placed on the couch in the hotel room. It is an improved cheongsam, pure white, with a halter neck, complicated and exquisite orchid pattern embroidery, a pinched waist design, a hollow waist, a skirt that reaches to the ankle, and a slit on the left thigh. , very oriental charm.
It matches Chen Jing'an's temperament, as gentle and elegant as an orchid and a moon.
The makeup artist is a professional. She came to the hotel and put on makeup that matched the dress. Her face was light and translucent, but the lip color was slightly darker. At a glance, she was eye-catching.
A simple bun and a hosta.
"Ms. Chen, I swear you are my most satisfying work this year, and your conditions are so good." The makeup artist couldn't help but praise her for her fair skin, no blemishes, and a snug base makeup suit.
I don't mean this as a compliment, I'm telling the truth.
The car drove to the downstairs of the hotel. After sending the message, Shen Lie waited downstairs. After receiving a phone call, the person still didn't come down. He simply took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and smoked it. Before finishing the cigarette, Chen Jing'an went downstairs.
In the lobby, people were checking in constantly, coming and going. Chen Jing'an's figure suddenly appeared, and everything around her began to blur. Only her figure and her face became clearer.
Probably because the dress was a little exposed, the position of the shoulders, and the large fair skin were not used to her, and the eyes around her were all looking sideways. She was not used to it, covering her shoulders with one arm, lowering her head and lowering her eyes, biting her lips.
Then, Chen Jing'an saw Shen Lie and their eyes met. She frowned slightly, seemingly complaining about the dress he picked for her, but she walked over helplessly.
Shen Lie never looked away. The smoke that was no longer being cared about was burning quietly. The ashes were hanging horizontally, and when they were about to fall, they were blown away by an inexplicable wind.
"Is it too revealing?" Chen Jing'an had already approached and asked him in a low voice.
"Just right." Shen Lie replied, his voice was like burnt ashes, dry and hoarse. It was only then that he realized that he still had a cigarette in his hand. He walked past the hotel door and put out the cigarette in the ashtray.
When she came back, she raised her lips and said, "It's time to go."
When she arrived at the cocktail party, she caught a glimpse of unfamiliar faces. When she walked here with a smile on her face, she held Shen Lie's hand and had the idea of escape, tilting her head to ask him Can you go back to the car and wait for him?
She would rather wait for him in the car than deal with these people here, she can't handle it.
Shen Lie tilted his head, with a smile on his lips, and passed his voice to her ear: "Don't be nervous, they won't eat you, just show half the energy you used to scold me that day."
"...I drank too much that day. "
You can still drink some to strengthen your courage today."
The lesson she learned after getting drunk was still fresh in her mind, so she decisively said no.
Shen Lie smiled and looked quite happy: "It's nothing important. I just want to play the kissing game again."
Chen Jing'an's cheeks turned red again when the old things were mentioned again, but before she could respond, some people were already coming towards her. Say hello to Shen Lie.
With his identity, he is the center no matter where he is.
Chen Jing'an had no choice but to straighten his back, listen to their conversation, and try his best to maintain a smile.
Soon, someone's eyes fell on her, curiously asking her identity, and more probing eyes came over to guess her identity.
"Chen Jing'an, my girlfriend."
Shen Lie introduced her like this and continued: "But she is timid and just came here to play. Don't scare her, or she won't come out next time."
Chen Jing'an was even more dissatisfied. Sorry, it seems like she is just a child with big fingers. She can't stand being frightened and loses her temper easily, but it's hard for her to refute.
Everyone knew it, and some people may have heard it and thought it was a ridiculous rumor, but when they saw it with their own eyes, they felt that it seemed to be the case.
The one in front of me was different from some of their girlfriends.
Chen Jing'an has been following Shen Lie, listening to him talking to other people, asking questions, business topics, everything. She listened mostly in confusion, knowing that although his father was not actually in power, he still firmly controlled the Shen family. Business empire, and the Shen family is not only engaged in business, but also in politics, doing well in every aspect.
"Aren't these boring?" Shen Lie tilted his head and asked her.
"It's okay."
"Do you want to leave?"
"Is that okay?"
Chen Jing'an just heard that the organizer invited him to speak on stage, and there was also a cake-cutting ceremony, which sounded very important.
She hesitated. It was not as boring as she thought. Shen Lie protected her very well. During conversations with people, he would talk to her about some people's lives and some stories about how they started their business. It made people sigh that there are always many things in life. Some chance.
While listening to their conversation, she also understood Shen Lie better. The more she knew, the more beneficial it would be to her.
"Okay, it's just that you have to sneak away. Saying hello will be a little troublesome."
"How?" Chen Jing'an asked curiously.
"Follow me." Shen Lie held her hand, avoided the crowd, and walked around the corner to the back porch. Behind it was a large open space with a fountain with an angel sculpture in the center. The water flowed silently, as if she had done something bad. , because I had no experience, I was extremely nervous. I pressed my hand on my heart, and the beating frequency was a bit exaggerated.
She couldn't help but think, what would she do if she was discovered?
It's embarrassing no matter how you think about adults still doing this kind of thing.
Chen Jing'an was wearing high heels that she didn't often wear, and she was a little cautious in her steps. She saw Shen Lie's figure, and the light and shadow cut his lines neatly. His side face, the tall bridge of his nose, and the beautiful arc, she couldn't tell clearly for a moment. She pursed her lips, instinctively following him.
Until she passed by the hot spring, as if some mechanism was triggered, the fountain suddenly sprayed out several water columns with a roar. The closer she got, the louder the sound. She was already highly nervous, and because she had done something bad, she was frightened by the sudden sound, and subconsciously Hide to the other side.
But before she could hide, a hand grasped her waist and held her in his arms. A pleasant chuckle resounded in his chest. After a while, he explained to her that it was just a fountain.
"Why are you so cowardly? That's right. You should be a good and obedient student who wouldn't climb over the wall and sneak out during evening study hall." His tone was teasing.
Chen Jing'an also felt that his reaction was a bit exaggerated, and he couldn't keep it on his face. He wanted to push him away, but as soon as he made a move, he heard Shen Lie's low voice: "Someone is coming out."
"!"
Chen Jing'an's scalp tightened and he didn't dare Dongfang: "What should we do? Have we been discovered?"
It would be too embarrassing if we were discovered.
"Maybe, he's on the phone." Shen Lie said lazily.
"Then should we hide?"
"Where to hide?"
"..." Chen Jing'an didn't dare to raise his head at all, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand when danger strikes.
Shen Lie looked at the empty direction and continued to exaggerate that people should come here quickly. Chen Jing'an squeezed into his arms. He suppressed a smile and led the people forward, crossed the courtyard, reached another corridor, and then passed through The hall is the exit.
When he reached a bright place, he patted the little ostrich on the head to remind her that she had arrived and it was time to raise her head.
