Chapter 14 Who hasn’t secretly speculated about the school beauty?

After a quick stroll around the Lin residence, Sasa's phone received several new friend requests. Someone even asked if she wanted to go for a drink or a round of drinks. Sasa politely declined.

She wanted to find Chen Qingqing but couldn't find her, so she simply went out to get some fresh air. She asked a few smokers under the eaves for a cigarette, then quickly ran into a pavilion in the deep courtyard to smoke. It started raining again, and a waiter came over with a black umbrella and held it for her.

Sasa really looks quite wealthy. She is wearing a black skirt and leaning against the side of a column, smoking a cigarette, with a big black umbrella on her head. She is not like Chen Qingqing, who can't stand being held up to an umbrella. After being in the fashion circle for a long time, people will call her teacher when she goes out. Sasa will not refuse these occasions that can make her look like a wealthy flower.

Sasa just felt depressed. She was now having a nightclub at the Lin residence and was going to stay at the Capella Hotel at night, but she had to go to the office building to ask for money the next day.

She turned on her cell phone and looked at the collection of debt collection tips on D Station in the night while smoking.

There was no signal. Sasa turned around and asked the waiter holding the umbrella, "Wi-Fi password?"

The waiter said, "Please enjoy the evening."

Sasa continued to look at him, and he realized that she had misunderstood and said, "Miss, the WiFi password is the full spelling of Please enjoy this night."

Sasa nodded, and as soon as she connected to the wifi, she couldn't wait to open the chat window between her and Chen Ang.

Back to a few nights ago, in Chen Ang's clinic, Sasa kissed him. Chen Ang didn't dodge. She kissed him lightly and then said, "I'm going to Shanghai in a few days." Chen Ang asked her, "Do you want me to go?"

Sasa said, "It's up to you to decide," then picked up the bag and left. When she came out, she bumped into the rider delivering Malatang, and she took the bag away.

In the next few days, Chen Ang didn't send her any more messages.

Standing in this rainy night, Sasa wondered if Chen Ang would send her dozens of messages after connecting to Wi-Fi, each one a passionate "Miss you/Where are you?"

But after the wifi was connected, the only message she received was a 58-second voice message from her father.

Sasa sighed and deleted the chat window with her father. After ten years of reunion, she still couldn't beat Chen Ang. Ten years later, she still wanted to accuse him of "unromanticism."

There was a reflection on the black screen of the phone, reflecting her distinct and neat eyelashes.

The school beauty who married Chen Ang was called Cong Shanshan. She was beautiful and had good grades.

When Sasa was in high school, her mother didn't allow her to show off, so she found all kinds of excuses to save money to buy Maybelline mascara. She took bus No. 36 for 40 minutes, bus No. 7 for another 15 minutes, and finally walked for 10 minutes to get to the Dong's counter in the city department store to buy the blue, thick Maybelline mascara that looked thick and not gaudy.

She met Cong Shanshan when she finished using the second tube. At that time, Cong Shanshan was accompanying a classmate to buy cosmetics. That classmate happened to be Sasa's cousin.

When my cousin saw Sasa, she immediately pulled Sasa over enthusiastically and said, "Let's go play the dance machine together later."

The dance floor is right next to the No. 36 bus stop, the Big Player Amusement Park. Sasa told her cousin to show off, "Let's walk for ten minutes and then take the bus."

Cong Shanshan was unhappy and told her cousin in a coquettish voice that riding the bus would make her sweat.

The passing wind that blew into the taxi made Sasa and her cousin's eyelashes a little tangled. She reached out and rubbed them gently with two fingers, but she couldn't control the strength well, and her eyelids turned red and the area under her eyes was black.

My cousin was rubbing her eyelashes in the back seat while complaining, "Shanshan is still the best. Her eyelashes are so long, and she doesn't need mascara, unlike us."

Sasa looked at Cong Shanshan in the rearview mirror. The other person's eyelashes were long and curled, while her entire lower eyelid was black. She could only smile awkwardly and wet a tissue with mineral water to wipe her lower eyelid.

Sasa doesn't like the dance machine, and the Big Player Super Arcade made her sweat. During the intermission, she wanted to go to the bathroom to wipe the sweat from inside her bra with a tissue, but she accidentally pushed open a toilet cubicle and saw Cong Shanshan secretly applying mascara.

After she pushed open the door, the two of them looked at each other. Sasa wanted to retreat, but Cong Shanshan grabbed her wrist.

Cong Shanshan said with a smile, Chen Su, you didn’t see anything.

Sasa was a little nervous and said, "Then tell me what kind of mascara you use."

Cong Shanshan said that it was a mascara from Innisfree, which was very cheap, even cheaper than the one you have.

Sasa had no idea what Han Dai was at that time. She found it curious and leaned over to take a look.

Then Cong Shanshan handed the one in her hand to her, closed her palm, and said, "Then I'll give this one to you."

They seemed to have exchanged a secret.

Standing here, Sasa wondered what Cong Shanshan had been doing all these years. When had she and Chen Ang been together? When had they gotten married? When had they divorced? Had Chen Ang ever told Cong Shanshan about their past relationship? Would Cong Shanshan ever tell him about their exchange of mascara all those years ago?

Which ordinary girl has never secretly fantasized about the school belle in her life?

Ten years later, Sasa took a full picture of Zhang Lin's house, in which there were a few doormen holding umbrellas, like Mr. Street Lamp in Andersen's fairy tale.

Sasa posted a circle of friends with the caption "Night Shanghai."

Around twelve o'clock, Wang Shu finally called Shen Qingqing, who was lying on the chaise longue and talking to Sun Ziyi about the embarrassing moments in her life.

Shen Qingqing, who came from a wealthy family, rarely felt awkward. After all, her wallet was always full, and she had a decent personality. But at this moment, she couldn't get over the awkward moment with Peng Zhou. She kept asking Sun Ziyi if Peng Zhou thought she was stupid. Sun Ziyi nodded, then consoled her, "But you don't have a chance of ever meeting each other in this lifetime."

Shen Qingqing sat on the chaise longue, holding her forehead with her hand, her posture dejected. "I don't even have the energy to take a shower and remove my makeup."

Just as Sun Ziyi was about to speak, Chen Qingqing's phone suddenly rang. She sat up with a jerk and saw the words "Dear Husband" on it. She handed it to Sun Ziyi like a hot potato and said, "You answer it."

Sun Ziyi picked up the phone and called out, "Mr. Wang."

She turned on speakerphone, and Wang Shu on the other side wasn't surprised she answered the phone. "Ziyi, is Qingqing with you?"

Sun Ziyi glanced at Chen Qingqing, who quickly used sign language to make a strange picture. Sun Ziyi immediately understood, "Well, at my house, she hasn't eaten all day."

Shen Qingqing made an OK gesture.

Wang Shu was silent for a moment, then said, "When you buy your plane tickets, I'll send you a text message reminder."

......

Shen Qingqing took the phone obediently and went up to the third floor with the phone.

The driver took Sasa to the gate of Capella, and she jogged all the way to the villa where the girls lived.

As soon as she opened the door, she heard Shen Qingqing yelling upstairs. The words "Why do I need you to care whether I live or die?" woke her up halfway from the drunkenness.

Sun Ziyi stood up and prepared to stop the fight.

Sasa stopped her and said, "Marriage and marriage should solve their own problems."

Sun Ziyi was a little worried, "Qingqing says anything when she gets into a fight, and it's impossible to stop her."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone upstairs shouted, "Who do you think you are? You give me a dead look every day."

Sun Ziyi looked at her and asked, "Did you see it?"

"I don't think it's that cruel." Sasa said.

"I'm going to fucking kill your kid tomorrow." Another voice came from upstairs.

".....This sentence is indeed a bit too much." Sasa said.

Five minutes later, Shen Qingqing came down. Her hair, which had been tied up, was now loose, and she looked very resentful. Seeing Sasa was also downstairs, she felt that she had just lost her composure. She wanted to force a smile, but judging from the corners of her mouth, she tried hard, but no smile came out.

“I didn’t know you were back.” Shen Qingqing and Sasa said.

"It's okay, I just came back and only heard the last two sentences." Sasa quickly made amends for her.

As an urban professional, what Sasa is best at is to make the other person look decent.

Shen Qingqing seemed to have opened up her chatterbox. "It's okay, even if you know everything, it doesn't matter."

Sun Ziyi said, "You should go to bed early."

Shen Qingqing shook her head “I want to drink.”

The three of them went to Julu Road to drink in the middle of the night. They finally found a shop without a long queue. Chen Qingqing insisted on getting drunk to forget her sorrows, so she ordered a whole bottle of Burgundy. However, she fell down after drinking one glass and started talking to Sasa nonstop.

The rain had stopped, but the road was still damp. They sat on seats on the street and couldn't sit on the ground, so the clerk gave them transparent raincoats. Chen Qingqing half leaned on Sun Ziyi, holding her waist and looking across at her, looking at Sasa through the wine glass. There were still some water droplets on the glass, which made it hazy like a magnifying glass, or like the filter of Wong Kar-wai's movies.

Shen Qingqing said, "Sasa, you seem to have great powers. Can you help me investigate whether Wang Shu has someone else outside?"

Sasa originally thought Chen Qingqing was cute and naive, and her limited defenses disappeared after she drank too much. Sasa held the wine glass and shouted, "No big deal! The entertainment industry is all connected! I'll go investigate for you tomorrow when I sober up!"

After Sun Ziyi drank too much, she changed the dishes. She hugged the two of them and cried, saying, "You are all my good sisters."

Shen Qingqing didn’t care about her, and held Sasa’s face with both hands, “Sasa, you swear a poisonous oath to me.”

Sasa raised her head and said, "Even if I have to dig three feet deep into the ground, I will find your husband's mistress!"

The three of them started crying again, took a selfie together, and then posted it on their Moments together.

The drunk women didn't know how to get back to the hotel. They crossed an overpass. Chen Qingqing vomited halfway through the walk, while Sasa managed to hold it in until she reached the hotel toilet. Sun Ziyi, the only one who was still sober, took out the makeup remover wipes given by the makeup artist that day and wiped their faces vigorously, saying as he wiped, "If a woman doesn't remove her makeup, she'll be ruined overnight."

Chen Qingqing and Sasa squatted on the bathroom floor, pouting at Sun Ziyi and asking her to get some wet wipes to help them remove their lipstick.

In the end, the three of them huddled together on a bed and fell asleep in each other's arms.
