There were streetlights on the playground at night, and Ye Qing, who was sitting under the streetlights, could see people's shadows. Although he had drunk too much and his eyesight was not good, he suddenly saw things that he had never seen before. For a drunk person, it was even more important to figure them out.
So Ye Qing swayed her neck and turned her head to take a look. She recognized the person as someone she knew and had seen before, but she was a little dazed as to who it was. She stood up unsteadily, like a theatrical performer, and suddenly shouted, "Dad..."
Then she staggered up to Xi Quan, grabbed his collar with both hands, and glared at him angrily: "Dad, what is this!"
Seeing Ye Qing so drunk, Xi Quan was initially angry, but Ye Qing's actions left him speechless and somewhat amused.
He reached out to help Ye Qing up and asked, "What did you call me?"
"I will never call you Dad!" Ye Qing thought she reacted quickly, and looked at Xi Quan triumphantly after saying that.
Because Xi Yue hadn't told Xi Quan the specifics about David, Xi Quan was unaware of the details. Hearing Ye Qing say this, he felt helpless. However, seeing how "cute" Ye Qing was when she was drunk, Xi Quan couldn't help but tease her, "What if I insist that you call me Dad?"
"Dream on!" Ye Qing said fiercely, as if afraid that Xi Quan would really make her do it. She slowly let go of Xi Quan's clothes that she was holding tightly.
Seeing that she could barely stand, Xi Quan quickly reached out to help Ye Qing, but Ye Qing avoided him.
Seeing Ye Qing like this, Xi Quan wanted to tease her, so he asked, "Then don't call him Dad, call him Husband. In the local dialect of Nancheng, people call their husbands and boyfriends Husband."
Completely drunk, Ye Qing paused for a moment upon hearing Xi Quan's words, as if she were seriously considering them. After tilting her head and remaining silent for a while, Ye Qing said, "No, Xu Ying used to call Xi Quan 'husband' back in Xiaoyao Village."
As for Xu Ying, Xi Quan had no choice but to do that because he was driven to a dead end by his mother. After the incident, Xi Quan forgot about it.
After all, they were registered as husband and wife, but their household registrations were no longer on the same household register. Although they were husband and wife, it was only in name. Now that they are divorced, if no one deliberately brings it up, Xi Quan will really forget about it.
Now that Ye Qing brought this up, Xi Quan suddenly felt a little regretful for arguing with his mother back then.
He scratched his head awkwardly, wanting to explain something, but then he realized that Ye Qing was a drunkard, and even if he explained, she might not remember it when she sobered up.
Ye Qing didn't care whether Xi Quan explained or not. She asked and answered herself, and after expressing her dislike for Xi Quan, she said, "Why do you have to call me that? It sounds too cloying. It's better to just call me by my name! We can talk about other forms of address after Xi Quan is officially promoted."
Although he knew Ye Qing was drunk and probably didn't even understand what she was saying, Xi Quan couldn't help but get excited when he heard her words and asked, "Make me a full-time employee? Make me a full-time employee for what?"
Ye Qing took a step forward, pointed at Xi Quan with her finger, and said, "Xi Quan is still a fake boyfriend now, but he'll become a real boyfriend."
Listening to Ye Qing's words alone, it seemed that she was sober.
Xi Quan couldn't help but ask, "Who am I?"
"Heh!" Ye Qing chuckled coldly. Although she didn't answer Xi Quan, it seemed she knew who it was, but disdained to say.
Xi Quan was helpless but unwilling to give up, so he tried to persuade him gently: "Are you really planning to make Xi Quan a permanent employee?"
"I considered it for a second."
That's true. Ye Qing had indeed considered it. For Xi Quan, this was definitely something that would keep him so excited he couldn't sleep. It seemed like everything was going perfectly. Seeing Ye Qing holding the bottle and about to drink again, Xi Quan quickly took the bottle from her and helped her back to the dormitory.
But apart from the playground, the school dormitories would have been dark long ago at this time.
Even if Ye Qing knocked on the dormitory door and got the dormitory supervisor to open it, she would probably still be criticized for what she was doing. After thinking about it, Xi Quan took Ye Qing away.
The next day, Ye Qing sat up, rubbing his head. He was momentarily delirious. He stretched and then, as was his habit, turned to get down from the upper bunk. However, as he made the move to get down, he stepped directly onto the ground.
Ye Qing suddenly stood up and glanced around the room.
Ye Qing quickly checked her clothes; they were still from yesterday. She breathed a sigh of relief. But where was she? The layout of the house looked quite nice, like an apartment building.
Moreover, the furnishings inside the room looked like those of a man's room.
Ye Qing tensed up again. Just then, the door to the room was pushed open. Seeing Xi Quan, Ye Qing relaxed a lot, but also became tense and angry again: "Where is this? How did I get here?"
Seeing Ye Qing's expression, Xi Quan knew that she had probably forgotten about yesterday's events and wasn't too disappointed. However, Xi Quan wouldn't just accept it so easily, since he didn't often have the opportunity to be so proactive in front of Ye Qing. So Xi Quan said, "This is where I live, where your boyfriend lives. You don't need to make such a fuss."
The moment Ye Qing saw Xi Quan, she guessed that this was probably where Xi Quan lived. But after receiving confirmation, Ye Qing was not happy: "There's no one else here, just the two of us. You don't need to get so into this. We're just friends at most. Being boyfriend and girlfriend is just something to upset your mother."
Xi Quan leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed: "It was indeed fake before, but you should also know that I wouldn't have dared to be so direct without your approval, right?"
