Chapter 33 Jinjiang Novel Reading Exclusive Who Allowed You to Draw a Heart? ...

Someone who wanted to watch the fun went to the stall owner to borrow the box of ink. Lu Zhiye opened it and pressed it with his finger.

The fingertips were stained red.

They were originally sharing a table, with seats from several street stalls squeezed together, so Shi Jing was almost sitting next to Lu Zhiye.

Now those people in LA were cheering him on, pulling him even closer to Lu Zhiye.

Painting on the face also requires getting very close.

But it's too close.

"Oh—the ink pad is fine. It happens to be red, so the drawing will be eye-catching." LEO said, "Draw, draw! No more excuses this time!"

Everyone at the table was making a big noise, but Matt was still trying to comfort him with a playful smile: "It's okay, sweetie, Master Lu won't hit you hard. Now that the painting is done, you're still my most handsome brother."

Shi Jing: “…”

Shi Jing looked into Lu Zhiye's eyes.

He leaned slightly sideways, and there was less than half a fist's distance between him and the other person.

At night, the street stalls were lit by street lamps and neon signs of store signs. In the dim light, Shi Jing could clearly see the color of Lu Zhiye's eyes as he looked down at him.

Deep black.

With the light behind him, his eyelashes half-covered, reflecting the faint light of stars.

Shi Jing's mind went blank for a moment for no reason.

Grass.

What was he about to say?

"What are you doing? Hurry up! Just draw a few strokes and then move on to the next round. Maybe you'll win."

"Yeah, playing cards is all about luck. Don't be shy. We'll let you draw if you win later."

"Lord Lu, you can't protect you newbies."

A group of people who knew nothing were the most enthusiastic in making a fuss.

Lu Zhiye's suggestion of drawing with his hands didn't necessarily mean that this punishment would be carried out. Looking at Shi Jing's face, illuminated by the light, some words slipped out of his mind.

Seeing that the other person's whole body was stiffer than a stone statue, Lu Zhiye was silent for a moment.

He put down the ink pad and turned around and asked, "Can you take the punishment instead?"

LEO: “?”

LA Assistant: "What do you mean?"

"Just find someone to take the punishment for Sweet." Jiang Yuan said.

LEO: "Okay, but who will come?"

Who is willing to take the punishment for Shi Jing?

This question doesn't even need to be asked. Who else could it be?

Only Lu Zhiye made this suggestion.

He is the captain of Shi Jing and has won this round. Now Shi Jing is unwilling to be punished, so it is reasonable for Lu Zhiye to replace him.

"Wild~" LEO's eyes lit up. "Then we can't let your team draw it all by themselves this time. To be fair, I'll reluctantly take on this role."

LA's support was dissatisfied: "Why are you here?"

"Captain draws captain, that's fair, isn't it?"

“…”

That makes sense.

It makes sense.

Shi Jing stopped LEO's hand from reaching for the ink pad and said, "Who asked you to do it for me?"

While others were stunned, he took the red box and slapped it in front of Lu Zhiye.

"It's just putting something on your face and admitting defeat."

Shi Jing didn't look at Lu Zhiye, and said quickly and harshly: "Will you draw or not?"

LEO was the first to recover. "Awesome! Sweet is so bold. I like this new guy's drive. Draw!"

He slammed the ink box down, and the atmosphere became even more lively. Everyone at the table clapped and shouted, "Paint, paint, paint!"

"Britney is awesome!" Matt's flattery never stops.

Shi Jing: “…”

After being shouted at by these people, he began to regret it.

The next second, Lu Zhiye picked up the box of ink.

His upper body leaned forward half an inch.

Shi Jing subconsciously turned to face him and raised his head - his left lower jaw was gently supported.

Lift upward.

Lu Zhiye has big palms.

Warm and dry. A little calloused.

He didn't use much effort.

But the five slender fingers almost covered the side of Shi Jing's face, forcing him to keep his neck slightly tilted, unable to move.

A few strands of his freshly trimmed hair fell down and brushed against his forehead and brows.

A bit eye-catching.

It's a bit itchy too.

Through the gaps between the hair and the light, the scenery fell into those deep black eyes.

The soft flesh on the face was pressed down.

Apply slight pressure with your fingertips and stroke the delicate skin.

It meanders from the side of the face and then touches the end of the eye.

Shi Jing's whole body was as stiff as a piece of iron.

The place touched by Lu Zhiye's fingertips felt burning, and the burning spread to the entire right face and ear.

The noisy voices seemed to be muted.

Or it may automatically blur into a buzzing sound.

He couldn't hear what LEO or Matt was saying. All he could hear was the "boom, boom, boom" sound of his blood pounding in his ears.

Shi Jing tensed his back——

"alright."

Lu Zhiye suddenly said.

With a sound, he was dragged back to the street barbecue stall.

"Oh - let me see, let me see!" Jiang Yuan was the first to rush over to watch, "Let me see if Sweet can still look handsome after the painting -"

The sound is stuck.

Also stunned were LEO, LA's support, and almost everyone else around them.

Shi Jing: “?”

Shi Jing had a bad feeling.

"Fuck." LEO cursed with a smile, "Fine, I didn't tell you clearly what I wanted to draw. I won't bother with you this time."

Everyone found their own voice.

"Is this a fucking punishment?" the LA support yelled. "No, I lost the game, but I can still draw something even more impressive. How is that a punishment?"

Jiang Yuan: "Come, sit over here and I'll draw a heart on your face too."

LA Assistant: "Get lost!"

Shi Jing: “?”

What love?

His expression paused, and he lowered his head in a daze to open the camera on his phone.

There is a red heart on the right cheek.

Half slanted from the corner of his eye to the side of his face.

The lines of the painting are smooth and very curved.

Shi Jing: “?”

Shi Jing: “…”

"Well, are you guys from SFD going to switch?" Leo had already picked up the cards. "Sweet, are you coming? If we win this time, we can draw someone else."

Shi Jing raised his eyelids.

LEO paused.

I don't know why, but I always feel like there's a shark's gaze passing through my eyes.

"I won't fight." Lu Zhiye said from the side.

After half a second, Shi Jing glanced at him coldly and said, "I won't fight anymore."

The attention of the people at the table was drawn back to the circle of playing cards.

Shi Jing picked up a skewer of mutton and thrust it into his plate with the force of a mangled corpse.

The heat on the right side of my face is getting more and more intense.

Lu Zhiye glanced at him.

Finally, after poking the poor mutton into pieces and failing to cool his face, Shi Jing couldn't bear it anymore.

"Lu Zhiye." He lowered his voice.

The person whose name was called had already blocked a few glasses of wine for him "for the newlyweds" and looked back at Shi Jing with a slightly tipsy look in his eyes: "Hmm?"

“…” Shi Jing clenched the bamboo stick in his hand.

Others didn't know and just thought he was drawing a pattern casually.

How could he not know what Lu Zhiye was doing?

Thinking of this, Shi Jing gritted his teeth and asked, "Who allowed you to draw a heart?"

It's the punishment for losing the cards, and he can't wash it off right away.

The people around were quiet for a while.

"I couldn't help it."

Shi Jing: “?”

Lu Zhiye: "Sorry."

Shi Jing: “…”

A few more seconds passed.

"Or what do you want to draw?" Lu Zhiye asked, "I'll re-..."

"roll."

-

Thanks to meeting this group of talented people in LA, this dinner, which was expected to end at 10 o'clock at the latest, lasted until almost midnight.

Apart from them, the only other people in the stall were a few drunks at the innermost table.

The boss had almost cleared all the tables, and the stray dogs on the street had all gone back to their kennels to sleep, but a few people here were still arguing over who had drawn a few more strokes on whose face.

Shi Jing played another round in the second half. This time his luck was not as outrageous as the first one, but he was a newcomer recruited by SFD. He won the cards and the game, so he was inevitably threatened by those old vixens in LA.

Of course, Shi Jing couldn't be manipulated by them. He wasn't good at drinking, and he didn't like it either. But since everyone was out having fun, it wouldn't spoil the fun.

The last few cups were blocked by Lu Zhiye.

At first, Shi Jing thought he deserved it.

Later, seeing him drinking cup after cup in silence, my fists couldn't help but tighten.

He was too kind to these LA players in the game.

"No, no, no, are you guys planning on getting drunk and sleeping on the street tonight?" Aside from the kids from Team Two, Jiang Yuan was the most playful person in Team One. "Let's take a cab back. I'll sit for a while. It's time for my next meal."

LEO smiled: "Isn't that great?"

"Come on, this is the last weekend before the new season, and you're already back at the base at midnight?" The LA slasher, a tall, loud guy with dyed red hair, joined later. "We've even booked a KTV room and plan to stay up all night."

"?" Song Jiahang frowned. "We had already ruled out KTV and other elderly activities before we came out."

LEO: “…”

LEO: "What do you mean?"

We are all young people. At twelve o'clock, the nightlife has just begun. How can we bear to go back at this time?

They talked briefly about whether they should call another car from the LA base or there would not be enough space. Shi Jing was on the other side, pulled his coat, put his phone away, and stood up.

Lu Zhiye next to him also stood up.

The body shook.

"?" Shi Jing almost raised his hand instinctively, but saw that he had calmed down again.

Lu Zhiye frowned, seemed to pause for a few seconds, and turned his head slowly.

Shi Jing saw that his movements had obviously become much slower.

Oh shit.

From the beginning, I saw Lu Zhiye sitting there as if nothing had happened. He even drank a few glasses without his face getting red. I thought he had a really good alcohol tolerance.

It turns out he was just pretending again.

"Shi Jing." Lu Zhiye suddenly looked at him.

Shi Jing: “…”

There were only two of them at the table, and Shi Jing didn't seem afraid. He glanced at them and asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Zhiye blinked slowly, with an expression completely different from usual. His gaze stayed on his face for a long time, as if he was thinking about what he was going to say.

Shi Jing waited for a long time, and saw Lu Zhiye frowning and said, "It's so noisy here."

Shi Jing: “…”

After more than ten minutes, Jiang Yuan and LEO finally figured things out and looked back.

"? Where's my captain?"

The table was already empty.

Lu Zhiye was nowhere to be found, and even Shi Jing disappeared.

"Are you talking about those two handsome guys here?" The shop owner came over as she was picking up the trash on the floor. "They didn't seem to be feeling well."

"Not feeling well?" Jiang Yuan sobered up immediately. "Fuck, you must have drunk too much! My brother never drank much before."

"? You're kidding! How can he have one drink after another if he doesn't drink much?" LEO said, "I drink every fucking day, I can't tell if he can drink or not? If he really can't drink, like that kid of yours, Sweet, I wouldn't force him to drink, okay?"

Song Jiahang also said: "Captain didn't drink much before, but recently... just a few glasses is not enough."

The red-haired guy from LA was puzzled: "He doesn't look drunk to me, and he only had those few drinks at the beginning. It's been at least an hour. If he was going to have problems, he would have done it by now."

When he came over to greet the new SFD member, Wild even glanced at him. The way he shook hands and the look in his eyes didn't show any sign of drunkenness at all. He was like nothing had happened.

LA Auxiliary: "Besides feeling uncomfortable, did they say anything else?"

"I don't know either. I just heard the taller one say it, and then the shorter one helped him walk." The proprietress pointed in the direction of the parking lot. "Go that way. They shouldn't be far."

"Oh." Jiang Yuan was relieved. "It's okay then. I guess he took the bus back to the base first."

LEO: "Never mind, you guys are not allowed to run away. I've treated everyone to a private room today, and the rest of you must go!"

…

Next to the SFD commercial vehicle.

Shi Jing never thought that one day, he would be supporting Lu Zhiye in the parking lot of a street stall at midnight.

and……

Why is this guy so fucking heavy??

"Climb up by yourself." After leading the man all the way to the car, Shi Jing opened the door and let him lean against the car.

At first, Lu Zhiye's hand was on his shoulder, but as they walked, for some reason it slipped to his neck.

The other person was already taller than him, so holding him was already his limit. If he were to ask him to adjust his stance, Shi Jing was afraid that he would lose his balance and they would both fall to the ground.

It didn't matter that Lu Zhiye fell; it just happened to sober him up, so he definitely wasn't worried about that. The main concern was that in this position and state, falling down wouldn't look very pretty.

Lu Zhiye's hand hung lightly around his neck, rubbing against his skin several times. Shi Jing felt like he had walked a year in just this short distance.

"Do you want me to carry you in?" Shi Jing said in a bad tone when he saw Lu Zhiye standing motionless leaning against the car door.

Fortunately, the space inside SFD's business car is large enough, and with the external circulation turned on, there is not much smell of alcohol.

So how many glasses did Lu Zhiye drink?

It doesn’t seem like there are many cups.

"Lu Zhiye." Shi Jing felt it necessary to explain clearly before the driver arrived, "You are in your own club's car now. If you vomit, it will be your own car that is dirty."

Two small lights were on in the front seats, and in the back, there was only a faint glow from the ambient lighting. Behind the privacy glass, the interior was so dark that it was impossible to make out the expressions on people's faces.

Still no response.

There can't really be something wrong with people, right?

Shi Jing was stunned for a moment, then reached out and lifted up Lu Zhiye's bangs.

Meeting the latter's black pupils.

The darkness darkened, and her wine-stained eyes looked at him.

The heat from Lu Zhiye's body passed through his forehead and onto Shi Jing's fingertips.

Shi Jing retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

After a while, he said in a firm voice: "If you can't drink, don't try to be tough."

He remembered hearing the rumor that Lu Zhiye didn't like to drink.

To be precise, everyone in the circle had heard that Lu Zhiye didn't drink, and this matter was revealed in an interview. The host at the time was even summoned for promoting drinking culture.

But looking at Lu Zhiye's skillful movements as he drank one cup after another, he didn't look like someone who really didn't drink.

"No, I can't drink." Lu Zhiye's voice was slightly hoarse.

Shi Jing turned his head.

Lu Zhiye just looked at him quietly.

I don't know how long it took before he spoke again: "I've had some recently... I've had some, but I'll be able to drink it slowly."

What's the meaning?

Time and scene are stagnant.

What else could it mean?

Suddenly going from not drinking to being able to drink is not a matter of genius or not, it just means drinking a lot in a short period of time.

Alcohol can relieve sorrow.

It can paralyze people's nerves.

Forget about reality and painful things for a while.

During this period of time, there was only one thing that could stimulate him to such a great extent.

"Are you an idiot?" Shi Jing couldn't help but swear.

"Shit." The air inside the car made Shi Jing uncontrollably stroke his hair, and he exhaled. After a long while, his tone softened. "If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. You don't need to force yourself here. Should I call the team doctor to wait at the base, or should he come with the driver?"

Lu Zhiye didn't answer.

Lower your eyelashes.

"No, that's not necessary," he said. "Can you ask the driver to come later?"

Shi Jing: “?”

It was hard to tell whether the hint of drunkenness in Lu Zhiye's black eyes was real or fake.

But the intention clearly written in his eyes could not be faked at all——

I want to be alone with you for a while.

Shi Jing: “…”
