Chapter 155 Good Sisters for Life

As the saying goes: "A thousand cups of wine are not enough when you are with a good friend, but a single word is too much when you are with a bad friend."

Tian Xin didn't expect to meet Li Jing here, and she didn't expect that Lin Zhou, who was such an introverted person, would have a childhood friend like Li Jing who had an extremely extroverted personality.

After Li Ke's backstabbing, she became more concerned about making friends. In college, she had met many friends like Li Jing who were bold, frank, and free-spirited, but in the end, Gao Wen was the only one she remained inseparable from.

How should I put it? Perhaps it didn't touch a certain part of my heart! After graduating from university, I gradually lost touch with most of my friends.

Li Jing's type is different from those she has met before.

Listening to her introduce the background and qualifications of these logistics companies, each one was concise and clear, with clear logic, and seemed very professional. She had lost the heroic temperament she had just had when she was chewing duck neck.

She couldn't help but admire this man in her heart, with starry eyes.

Li Jing was talking with great excitement. When he turned around, he saw her staring at him with a dazed look on her face. He felt strange: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Oh! No...nothing? Go on!"

Tian Xin shifted her gaze to the document and smiled awkwardly: "Go on!"

"This boss is from Sichuan. He's quite generous, so if you want to have a meeting, you can go to him first. If that doesn't work out, I'll take you to see the others!"

Li Jing closed the file and threw it on the table. She patted Tian Xin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Whether you can succeed depends on you!"

"Of course," Tian Xin replied, "You've been so awesome, I certainly can't hold you back! Thank you, Li Jing! Cheers!"

"Well, what are you thanking me for? If you really want to thank me, let's meet alone some other time! Drink this..."

Before she could finish the sentence "the sky was dark and the earth was gloomy", Lin Zhou interrupted her loudly: "Ahem..."

This cough was so fake that Li Jing expressed her dissatisfaction: "Alright, stop coughing. It's just a drink, right? Can I eat her?"

She turned her head, glanced at Tian Xin, and gave her a brilliant smile: "Tian Xin, if I ask you out, will you come?"

"Come! You have to come!" Tian Xin didn't hesitate at all and immediately put her arm around Li Jing's shoulders: "You're so kind, what else can I say! Next time we meet, I'll treat you!"

"Okay!" Li Jing said nothing, picking up her beer and clinking it with Tian Xin's. "Look, I'm much stronger than you! How can I be as weak as you think?"

Lin Zhou curled his lips and shook his head, strongly disagreeing with her words.

Tian Xin's face was already red. She must have been too drunk. It was the same thing when she and Lin Hai were drinking at the hot pot restaurant last time. He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and snatched the beer from Tian Xin's hand.

"Hey, why did you take it away?" Tian Xin stretched out her hand, but Lin Zhou covered the rim of the cup and said softly, "Don't drink it!"

"How can that be? It's rare that we get along so well, how can we not drink?"

Lin Jing immediately agreed: "That's right, if you don't want to drink, forget it and leave us alone!"

After saying that, he snatched the wine from Lin Zhou and handed it to Tian Xin: "Come on, drink!"

The two of them toasted each other for three rounds before Li Jing finally calmed down.

Perhaps because she was too drunk and had no strength left, she put her hands on Tian Xin's shoulders, hung herself on her, and "confessed" to Tian Xin affectionately with her tongue: "I... remember you! You are... Tian Xin! You are... hiccup... Lin Zhou's... girlfriend! And you are my... hiccup... good sister!"

"Alright, alright, I get it. Stop talking!" Tian Xin snatched the can from Li Jing's hand and straightened her up. "Rest for a while, I'll take you home later!"

"Why are you going back?" Li Jingshun fell down on the sofa, closing her eyes and mumbling: "Good sisters, forever!"

…

"What should we do?" Tian Xin looked at Li Jing lying on the sofa, feeling a little overwhelmed: "She can't even hold her liquor!"

Lin Zhou raised his eyebrows and looked at Tian Xin's embarrassed face. He couldn't help laughing: "That's just how she is. It's okay. I'll send her back later!"

"Do you know where her home is?"

"Um!"

The car stopped at an old residential building. Tian Xin and Lin Zhou helped Li Jing and sent her home.

"I was wondering why this place looks so familiar. Isn't your home here too?"

After coming down from upstairs, Tian Xin finally realized that Li Jing and Lin Zhou lived in the same community.

"Yeah!" Lin Zhou returned to the car with his hands behind his back without any extra explanation.

Tian Xin sat back in the passenger seat, fastened her seatbelt, and asked again: "Then why did she say she had come to see you with great difficulty? We were so close, why did she..."

"What?" Lin Zhou leaned back in his seat, one hand on the steering wheel, the other hand touching his nose, and watched Tian Xin asking about Li Jing with great interest, his heart beaming with joy.

This looks a bit jealous no matter how you look at it.

Tian Xin probably realized this as well, and she shut up before she finished her words. Seeing that Lin Zhou was still looking at her and smiling, she immediately turned around and pretended to sleep: "Hurry up, or I'll get scolded if you're any later!"

Lin Zhou looked at her back, smiled dotingly, got out of the car, took out a blanket from the trunk, covered her with it, and drove to Xiaowan Village.

Xiaowan Village is more than ten kilometers away from the new urban area, and it takes at most twenty minutes to drive there.

Lin Zhou was silent for a few minutes, but couldn't help but speak.

"The house I live in was bought by my parents before they divorced. When I became an adult, my mother left the house to me."

“…”

Tian Xin was almost asleep with her head buried in the blanket when she suddenly heard Lin Zhoulai say this and she leaned her ears out to listen.

Lin Zhou continued, "Lin Hai, Li Jing, and I all lived here when we were little. Later, something happened to Lin Hai's family, so we moved away. Li Jing's grandfather and my grandfather were old comrades-in-arms, so we kind of grew up together!"

"Childhood sweethearts?" Tian Xin covered her head and asked.

Lin Zhou couldn't see her expression when she said this, nor could he hear anything wrong from her tone.

But he still explained: "No!"

"I haven't seen her much since high school. After my parents divorced, I moved to the ancient city... to live with my dad. Li Jing went to college out of town and just came back before the New Year! I guess she won't be here long!"

"Ah!" Tian Xin pulled back the blanket abruptly and frowned, "She doesn't work here?"

"Um!"

"Oh... what a pity!" She covered her head again and her voice came out from under the blanket: "I thought I could make friends with her!"

"You want to be friends with her?"

"Um!"

“…” Lin Zhou was speechless!

It’s all in vain explaining!

He smiled helplessly, looking at Tian Xin curled up in the blanket, and suddenly felt that he was a little stupid!

The village was completely silent, with most people having already turned off their lights and gone to bed. When Lin Zhou drove the car to Tian Xin's door, Li Aiying was looking down the road with a flashlight. She was stunned when she saw the car parked in front of her house.

Tian Xin got out of the car, her mouth full of alcohol, and leaned over to the car and warned: "Drive slowly, and text me when you get there!"

Lin Zhou replied: "Okay, go back now!"

She turned around and saw a dark figure standing at the door, shining a flashlight at her. She was so frightened that she lost her soul and screamed subconsciously: "Ah——"

Lin Zhou had already turned around and was leaving when he heard her scream. He braked hard and ran over: "What's wrong?"

Li Aiying heard the voice and swung the flashlight around. After seeing that it was Lin Zhou, she exclaimed, "Oh!" "Are you Xinxin's classmate?"

Lin Zhou couldn't open his eyes because of the flashlight, so he blocked them with his hands. When he heard Li Aiying's voice, he quickly replied: "Yes, Auntie!"

"It's so late, and I'm still bothering you to send her back. Thank you!" Li Aiying smelled the alcohol in Tian Xin's mouth and pushed her into the house.

Turning to Lin Zhou, she said, "Young man, it's getting late. Auntie won't keep you here any longer. Drive slowly!"

Without waiting for Lin Zhou to reply, she slammed the door shut.
