【5.】

  Speaking of military training... it's really unbearable to recall, I'd rather not tell you about the miserable experience I had during my military training back then.

  Luckily, Tao Hua is a clever kid and always comes up with fake excuses and various uncomfortable reasons. Otherwise, I really can't imagine how I managed to walk down from the playground.

  I wasn't originally a clean person, I can only be considered a normal person, it's just that our white porcelain-like Tao is pitiful.

  So she bought all sorts of whitening face masks, I picked up a few as well. Although not to the extent of Tao, but having a whitening dream is something every girl has.

  I'm leisurely sticking face masks at home

  My phone rang, I picked it up and took a look, it was actually Liu Xin. Didn't this kid go to the gathering?

  "Hello?"

  "Hello, is this Liu Xin's sister?"

  A pleasant male voice came from the receiver, with a somewhat hypnotic and magnetic charm.

  I suddenly felt a surge of emotions and asked: "It's me, who are you?"

  The person on the other end of the line seemed to let out a sigh of relief and said, "I'm Liu Xin's classmate. We were having a gathering in our class and she had a few too many drinks. She's a bit drunk now. If it's convenient for you, could you come pick her up?"

  I thought to myself that this sister of mine is really embarrassing, and hurriedly tore off the face mask on my face, saying: "Okay okay, where are you guys now?"

  He mentioned a place name. I thought for a moment, it's really far from my home!

  My parents aren't even home, it's simply tragic.

  I hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to wash my face, then put on my clothes and left.

  The night in the south is a bit humid and cool, I like this kind of Jiangnan water town's small sentimentalism. Always feel it's very suitable for me who usually doesn't have much sentimentality but occasionally bursts out with a little woman's emotionalism.

  I looked at Liu Xin and then at the man she was leaning against, and I finally understood. Liu Xin was indeed drunk but pretending not to be...

  It seems I've made a mistake by being an older sister.

  As expected, as soon as this thought flashed past, Liu Xin stuck her tongue out at me. I gave her a white eye, disturbing me in the middle of the night!

  That boy saw me and was visibly stunned for a moment. Earlier, they were backlit, so I couldn't see his face clearly. As he approached, I couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

  His previously furrowed brow relaxed and he smiled at me: "It's you."

  I nodded: "Liu Xin has caused you trouble, I'm really sorry."

  Shen Duan had one hand on Liu Xin's shoulder and the other supporting her arm. Rarely was such a posture so frank and open, without any hint of taking advantage.

  "It doesn't matter, they made too much of a fuss, otherwise Liu Xin wouldn't have drunk so much."

  I walked over and pretended to be very concerned about Liu Xian: "Xianxian, how are you feeling?"

  Liu Xian also cooperated with me, half-closing her eyes and making a dazed expression, muttering unclear words.

  If it weren't for my solid foundation, I would have laughed out loud by now. This little girl Liu Xin is quite skilled. Her acting skills are so good that she can pretend to be drunk and make it look real. Ordinary people probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

  I looked at Shen Zhuo with a particularly helpless expression: "Alas... this child. You see..."

  He raised an eyebrow, as if waiting for the next part. This expression made my heart skip a beat, and subconsciously I felt that he must have seen through all these little tricks between me and Liu Xin.

  I bit my lip and didn't speak, feeling like I was being seen through from head to toe, flustered and at a loss.

  He glanced at her with a hint of disdain and said lightly: "She's drunk like this, you can't handle it alone. I'll send you back."

  I finally got a chance to save face, and I felt relieved in my heart. I replied with a smile: "Thank you so much."

  He didn't say a word, walking ahead of me. I quietly followed him, and couldn't help but sigh that this kid's aura was too powerful, even though I'm three years older than him, I would still be overwhelmed by his strong aura.

  Alas...

  He took us to the parking lot and pulled out a key from his pocket.

  I saw a car's headlights light up in the distance.

  Wow! Audi A8!

  "Is this car yours?"

  He glanced at me and said faintly, "No, it's borrowed."

  It wasn't until later that I found out that people of his status looked down on cars like this. Only someone as common and unsophisticated as me would be shocked and amazed.

  I helped Liu Xin onto the car and sat her down beside me on the back seat.

  Maybe it was the exhaustion from military training a few days ago, or maybe it was Shen Zong's silence. And "drunk" Liu Xin couldn't say much, so in this silence, I gradually fell asleep.

  When I woke up again, I reached out and took out my mobile phone.

  "Oh no, it's already this late!"

  "Are you awake?"

  This sudden voice startled me. It turned out that there was someone on the driver's seat after all. I looked over.

  "Shen Dang?"

  He turned around: "So you remember me."

  I don't know why this suddenly made me flustered, so I smiled and said: "Yes, Liu Xian has mentioned you before. Today is really troubling you, so I..."

  "Wait a moment..." He turned around and reached out to hold my leg.

  I raised my head and stared at him with wide eyes.

  Shen Duan smiled wryly: "Liu Jia, I didn't mean anything else. Look, I'm just a first-year high school student, what can I do to you? Don't avoid me like a wolf or a tiger."

  I hung my head and played with my fingers, thinking for half a day before squeezing out a sentence: "I don't have either..."

  "Don't always contradict me."

  This time I'm completely speechless, Liu Xin next to me has probably been helped upstairs by him. There are only two of us in the car, so close that I can even smell the special masculine scent on his body. Such a bewitching charm, I used to think only women could be seductive. It turns out that when men are charming, they can also be deadly.

  Don't laugh at me for being no match for him, you haven't seen his serious side, when he gets serious, very few people won't be intimidated.

  He opened the car door: "I'll take you upstairs."

  "Never mind..."

  He stared at me without saying a word. I lost to his gaze and resignedly said: "Okay, thank you."
