I like you, Chih-ling

Wu Meilai had just left her phone to go to the bathroom when she received over a dozen verification messages. Unaware of Zhou Qianling's situation, she simply sent her address and replied that she was safe.

She spent two days selling her personal stroller and completed the termination procedures in the afternoon.

Wu Mei didn't want to go back to Qianzhou, but the cost of living in Yanzhou was too high. Since there was no possibility for her to be with Zhou Qianling, she needed to move to another city.

Among the hundreds of cities in the province, Wu Meilai has been to Hujian Huzhou. Fortunately, it is close to Yanzhou and can be reached by bus in half a day.

The ticket was for ten o'clock tomorrow morning, so she stayed in a hotel near the bus station tonight.

In fact, she had already made plans to leave before being questioned that day, and could move out of the province the next day, but she kept delaying time by selling her pots and pans.

She had her own little thoughts and hoped that Zhou Qianling would come to see her.

But she didn't come.

Even now, she was secretly hoping that Zhou Qianling would keep her.

But she still didn't, didn't even ask why she was in the hotel, or where she was going. She just asked politely: Have you had dinner?

Wu Meilai felt her heart sinking again and again. If that was the case, why was he so eager to add her friend back?

【have eaten. 】

My stomach growled in response.

Only then did Wu Mei remember that she had eaten a bowl of rice noodle rolls today.

There was a lot of noise outside, and from time to time there were the sounds of bus horns honking and planes taking off.

Wu Meilai went downstairs to buy some barbecue skewers, then went into a convenience store to get a can of Coke. When she was checking out and leaving the store, she glanced across the street and was stunned.

A motorcycle taxi honked, and she came to her senses, stepped back, and leaned against the wall.

The green light came on and Zhou Qianling crossed the road, his slightly hurried steps slowing down when he was five or six meters away from her.

Wu Meilai stood up straight, her heart warm. She pressed the corners of her mouth and whispered softly, "You're here."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away, the pocket in his hand shaking slightly. After a while, the plastic rubbed against the other person's denim, making a slight scratching sound.

The hustle and bustle of the city seemed to dispel the barriers between the two of them, and time seemed to go back to the time when they first met.

There was a large flow of people near the bus station, and the noisy and lively atmosphere made people's nerves excited. Zhou Qianling lowered his eyes to look at the skewers in her hand and asked with a smile: "Didn't you say you had eaten?"

"Well, I'm craving for some midnight snacks."

Gu~

Wu Meilai: ...

Zhou Qianling chuckled, "I haven't eaten either. Let's..." She looked around the night market, "How about grilled fish?"

"good."

Although Wu Meilai's temperament had become much tougher, she was still like a dough that could be squeezed and twisted by anyone in front of Zhou Qianling. Without asking any questions, she ate a meal of grilled fish with him.

It wasn't until she returned to the hotel and looked at the only bed that she hesitantly asked, "Where are you sleeping tonight?"

Zhou Qianling looked confused, obviously he had never thought about this issue.

After receiving the news that Wu Mei was coming, she chased after her without wasting a second, without even thinking about what she was doing there, let alone where she would stay.

"How about I get another room?"

Wu Meilai stopped in front of the bathroom door and coughed. "If you don't mind, we can squeeze in for one night. It's not cost-effective to book a room at this time."

Wu Mei came to close the bathroom door and turn on the shower, but she didn't move. Instead, she tried to distinguish the sound of opening and closing the door from the sound of running water.

"Sorry to bother you then."

Wu Mei didn't reply, but her face felt a little hot. She tilted her head back and turned the knob to the cold water range.

She didn't have any special ideas, she just wanted to save some money for Zhou Qianling.

But what happens to a lonely girl is not something she can control.

Cough, cough, cough.

"What's wrong?"

"No, cough cough, I choked."

"You can choke even when taking a shower."

The figure behind the bathroom door left. Wu Mei came to turn off the water and touched her nose.

Fortunately, it was just water, I thought I had a nosebleed.

When she was getting dressed, she remembered that she had no clean clothes.

The image of Zhou Qianling standing naked behind him in the small hotel in town suddenly appeared in his mind.

She was probably seducing herself at that time.

Wu Meilai imitated her, hooking her right hand behind her neck and turning her face to the left.

It should be pretty good, right?

Anyway, Zhou Qianling is pretty good-looking.

As if she had made up her mind, she hunched her back and pushed open the bathroom door.

Zhou Qianling turned around when he heard the sound, only to see the door open a crack, and then a snow-white foot stepped out.

Two seconds.

Shrank back again.

After a while of rustling, the bathroom door was pushed open again, and Wu Mei came out wearing the T-shirt and wide-leg pants she was wearing before.

"It's your turn. The water is still hot."

She opened the suitcase, pulled out a nightgown and handed it to her, "Wash it."

Zhou Qianling stared at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself, and finally took it to take a shower.

Wu Mei came without even looking at her, and took out the sheets and quilt covers and put them on.

She herself was more casual, but since Zhou Qianling was here, she wanted her to sleep more comfortably.

Sitting at the end of the bed, Wu Meilai sighed.

He has the desire but not the courage.

She enjoyed the feeling of desire, but was too embarrassed to speak of it. She didn't understand why she was ashamed of it, and she didn't want to explore it at the moment. But she knew that no matter how hard she tried to hide it, she hoped Zhou Qianling could bring her pleasure tonight.

Wu Meilai changed into her pajamas, pulled down the collar to expose her shoulders, leaned against the head of the bed, and stared at the bathroom door nervously.

The sound of water stopped, and the sound of turning the handle was heard in the bathroom. Wu Meilai's heart was pounding.

The door is open.

Wu Meilai moved her butt down and snuggled into the quilt.

well--

Wu Meilai heard Zhou Qianling walk from the bathroom to the TV cabinet, take out the hair dryer and return to the bathroom. After drying his hair, he put the hair dryer back and walked towards the bed.

Wu Meilai closed her eyes.

She could feel Zhou Qianling's gaze on her face. Half a minute later, the quilt was lifted and covered.

The room was completely quiet, and the only sound was the bus departing at night passing by downstairs.

Wu Meilai opened her eyes and saw Zhou Qianling with his back to her, with a wide distance between them.

Although they had slept in the same bed not many times, it had never been a scene like this.

Wu Meilai felt wronged and raised her hand to poke her back, "What are you doing here today?"

Zhou Qianling didn't reply, and asked, "Are you going to Huzhou?"

"How do you know?"

silence.

"When you were taking a shower, I accidentally saw the message your mother sent you."

Wu Meilai was surprised, "How did my mother know I was going to Huzhou?"

Now I can’t go to Huzhou.

Zhou Qianling lifted the quilt and said, "She said that Li went to Huzhou to work." His voice was muffled.

It took Wu Meilai a while to understand who Li was.

His mood improved, and he poked Zhou Qianling again, "Are you jealous?"

"No."

Wu Meilai moved forward and put her arms around her from behind. Zhou Qianling trembled but did not move.

"I've already blocked that person. I don't want to get married, and I don't want to be in a relationship with anyone other than you."

Wu Meilai rested her forehead against her back and murmured softly, "I like you, Qianling."

The words were as soft as a mosquito's voice, but they made Zhou Qianling's whole body numb and tremble.

She wanted to cover Wu Meilai's hand, but stopped in mid-air and retracted it.

"Are you not afraid anymore?"

Wu Meilai tightened her grip, "I'm more afraid that you'll be with someone else."

Zhou Qianling swallowed and opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

She was indeed much more timid than the previous Wu Mei, and she didn't even dare to say she was afraid.

Wu Meilai tightened her arms again, almost rubbing her into her body. "Do you really have a lover?"

She shouldn't have hugged Zhou Qianling so tightly, but she didn't want to let go.

Tell me, no.

Zhou Qianling: "Yes."
